with some hacked bone, calcium rich and tendony and a fave with one, are served in an intensely interesting sauce beyond my ken. I’m sure there’s some tangerine peel, peppercorns, anise, chilies (whole dried pods are...

There’s a great uncooked, gelatin-based salmon mousse in an old Gourmet I have—it’s probably on Epicurious. It has mayo and heavy cream, so not low-fat, but it also has canned salmon with the bones, great source...

We discussed canned tuna earlier, so now I’d like to recommend salmon. The best I've had is Costco’s Kirkland brand skinless boneless salmon. Good stuff, way better than Gefen, Dagim, or any of the other Jewish brands.

I find that I am almost always disappointed by pre-marinated anything. It just never works for me, so I've never tried their marinated salmon. I've never tried their packaged lasagna, but you could put foil over the lasagna to...

. Then it occurred to me that perhaps this was a bit absurd— I can go for days without milk or eggs, but as soon as I run out of Parmesan (freshly grated black pepper is almost on that list for me as well), I’m...

I've heard so many things about storing coffee, and nothing works as well as I’d like. I've frozen whole beans in tight glass jars, put them in the fridge, vacuum sealed with a home system, etc. It just doesn’t work...

Silly me...I’m a sucker for a sale. I bought some ricotta that will need using up very soon. Can it be frozen? What do YOU do when you have a surplus of ricotta. Putting together something as time consuming as lasagne...

I've been a big fan of buttered noodles since childhood. I know seem to enjoy them more with a drizzle of good olive oil and a sprinkle of fresh parsley, and perhaps a bit of freshly grated cheese on top.

candy for my dad. A lady wouldn’t buy some certain candy because it was manufactured in China. I have no bias against the country – I've even been there and eat Asian market foods imported from there too. I wondered,...

The last two times friends have given birth I've brought over a whole roast chicken, some kale or spinach sauteed with a little olive oil but no garlic, and a big salad. The iron and calcium in the sauteed veggies are good for a...

there is a mild warm pepperyness about it and I've never had a ‘tasting of oil’ problem.

I think that grapefruit interferes with some calcium medications too...the ones for osteoporosis.

Mexican mayo is pretty good. It’s on the stiff side. It has been awhile since I've had Hellman’s so I can’t give you a side by side comparison. paulj

Gargoyles on the Square’s Jason Santos likes to play with molecular gastronomy. I've seen technique with sodium alginate/calcium ions, foams, and gelee there. He’s not “all about that,” but he likes to add...

trojans, have you had Ba-Tampte? i've seen Bubbies but never tried them and i’d be curious to know how they compare...
