• A restaurant rant

  
  Make Friends With Food — Authority: 112
  I don’t go out to eat that often. First of all, who can afford it anymore? Secondly, whatever the restaurant is serving, I can usually make a better version myself. It’s not because I’m a fantastic cook. It’s because I buy good-quality ingredients, which most restaurants DO NOT. You’d be amazed at what a ...

• Foie Gras Frenzy

  
  FRENCH LETTERS — Authority: 116
  It’s foie gras season again.  More than Santa, more than twinkly street lights, more than Christmas markets, Noël is announced by the sudden appearance of foie gras on every menu and in every butcher case.It’s been one of those things that I eat when someone else prepares it, because it’s so incredibly ...

  Drawing for Food — Authority: 412
  Picked up some natural casing NY state hot dogs at Wegmans in Collegeville, PA. Got a pack of Zwiegels 6 to a pound "Texas Hot Dogs" and a 3 pound pack of Sahlens for the freezer. They also had Zwiegels White Hots - a pork,beef and veal uncured dog unique to Rochester. This is particularly exciting because ...

• French Lunch, A Bunch

  
  FRENCH LETTERS — Authority: 116
  We’ve had some great lunch invitations lately.  One thing I love about France is that lunch can be a real meal, an event, and an occasion.  It’s really sweet to hang out with nice people, eat great food, and drink good wine, while the sun’s still shining.  In the above case, we were invited by [...]

• Cooking with local food

  
  Make Friends With Food — Authority: 112
  Ive been restraining myself from buying new cookbooks lately. Between the cookbooks I already have, the food publications I read, and the wealth of ideas I encounter online, there’s no way I’m ever going to be able to make all the promising recipes out there. My pile of magazine clippings alone could keep me busy ...

• Were running dangerously low on waffles

  
  Make Friends With Food — Authority: 112
  I had difficulty deciding whether or not to write about this topic. (Yep... I went back and forth a few times.) Kelloggs’ Eggo waffles are expected be in short supply from now through mid-2010, due to flooding and equipment breakdowns at two of the four factories that produce them. Many grocers’ freezers are ...

• Salted Butter Caramel Ice Cream

  
  My Dinner Table — Authority: 114
    This may be the tastiest thing to come out of my kitchen in a long time, while maybe since the malted milk ice cream earlier this summer. That was pretty good, but this was fantastic. Ive been meaning to make it for a couple of months ago when I first read it on David Lebovitzs blog . He makes the incredibly ...

• A matter of taste

  
  Make Friends With Food — Authority: 112
  Ever wonder why processed foods often taste better than the real things they’re supposed to imitate? Cake mixes, for example. It’s not easy to bake a cake from scratch that comes out as light and buttery as Betty Crocker’s version. Also fast-food chicken. Canned soups. Instant oatmeal. Frozen dinners. Unless ...

• Pork Belly Biscuits

  
  My Dinner Table — Authority: 114
  So it had to come to and end. At some point I was going to finish the pork belly and now Im a little sad. Im going to need to get another one soon. I was out of steamed buns and I didnt want to eat another bowl of ramen with it, so I had to think of another way to eat the pork belly. David Chang has other recipes in ...

• Ramen with Pork Belly

  
  My Dinner Table — Authority: 114
    Faced with a large piece of pork belly, Im going to need to find a way to eat it up. Ive eaten all the steamed buns I bought at T&T and I dont feel like attempting the recipe in the Momofuku cookbook that makes 50 more. So ramen seemed like a pretty good option and let me say after eating it, it was a friggin ...

• Happy Thanksgiving

  
  Capital Spice — Authority: 551
  Sometimes the best traditions around Thanksgiving aren’t just the food, but what happens around the table once the food has been cleared away.In my family, the means an insanely competitive game of Spoons among the cousins. Spoons is a card game that is kind of like musical chairs. Start with one deck of cards. ...

• Momofuku Pork Buns

  
  My Dinner Table — Authority: 114
  I decided to go with the pork buns first. The pork buns are what David Chang is famous for after all and judging by the talk online about the pork buns I had to give it a go. I bought my steamed buns to make the sandwiches instead of making the recipe in the book. It made it a lot easier. So, after steaming them up ...

• Momofuku Pork Belly

  
  My Dinner Table — Authority: 114
  There are a handful of foods that if I see on a menu that I cant resist. Most of them are things that I cannot or will not make at home. Chief among them, at least until yesterday, was pork belly. Id never cooked it, but ever since the Momofuku cookbook arrived on my doorstep Ive been thinking I really should give it ...

• A French Candlelight Dinner

  
  FRENCH LETTERS — Authority: 116
  Let me just start by stating the obvious: French cooking is all about the stock.  I’ve made stock for years, but now, cooking mainly French dishes, I’ve always got chicken bones or duck bones in my fridge, along with scraps of fennel and celery leaves.  And so when I decided I needed a dish that [...]

• How to Carve a Turkey: Chef Dennis Marron of the Morrison House Breaks It Down

  
  Capital Spice — Authority: 551
  Whether you’ve decided to roast, grill, smoke or fry your turkey, the final step can make or break your presentation.  Even the most beautiful bird, with a crisp and golden skin, can end up looking like a pile of hacked-up meat on the plate if you don’t carve it properly.  A well-carved turkey, on the [...]

• Building Blocks - Vinegar Pickles

  
  My Dinner Table — Authority: 114
  There are a lot of recipes for little side dishes of things to go with some of the iconic dishes in the Momofuku cookbook. Building blocks for the larger dishes that I suppose you could not do and just buy the product, but what fun would that be. One of them is the vinegar pickles. You need them for the pork buns. You ...
