Cook the Book: 'Food Matters: A Guide to Conscious Eating'
Mark Bittman has inspired us for many years. We are constantly trying new flavor combinations, reducing the amount of red meat we consume and increasing our daily grains and vegetables. Our most favorite recipe from Bittman is his gravlax published in the NYTimes November 11, 1998. Try it!

Serious Cheese: Grilled Cheese, Georgian Style
I've had khachapuri in a Georgian restaurant in Moscow. It was shaped like a boat, the dough surrounding the cheese. When brought to the table, the cheese was bubblind and there was a raw egg on top. The waitress beat the egg into the cheese mixture, long enough to cook the egg. It was wonderful.Can't wait to go back!

Classic Cookbooks: Kasha Varnishkes
I grew up on kashe varnishkes courtesy of my American born mom of Polish descent.
The first time my Russian daughter-in-law came to the states, I wanted to make her feel comfortable and prepared this for her. Well, she hates Kasha and her entire family in Moscow avoids Kasha (buckwheat) at all costs.

love good old-fashioned kishka, sweet and sour cabbage soup with flanken, classic chopped liver and ALWAYS chicken soup with Matzah balls. On the dairy side lukshen kugel tops all.

Eat less meat, but more vegetables & fruits. Quick & simple home cooked meals are possible every night. Stock your pantry with great staples that you will actually use. No knead bread is addictive.

His interview on NPR was great. He made me think of eating in a more responsible way. In some ways it is better to eat local raised meats than imported produce. That kinda shocked me. We really need to think about the chemicals involved in transport and packaging foods.

To stop eating so much food that is processed and eat more veggies. I tore out my whole back yard lawn and put in an edible garden last summer. Also I've cut out a lot of meat in my diet.

Mr. Bittman showed me that I can revel in cooking amazing food in my thimble-sized kitchen with apartment-sized oven & refrigerator. He also cured me of my processed food love -- no more canned stock & beans & many more fresh whole foods. My boyfriend & I both thank him heartily for both of these grand gifts!
