it as a breakfast food. Burned out on it way back!

I first began drinking gin martinis about forty years ago. While I enjoy wine with dinner nightly, I have remained a gin martini fan and have a bottle of gin in the freezer so my martini doesn’t get cut with water. If I...

and looking a little, I feared, burned. I didn’t realize that toothpick trick was universal, for all cakes. I did not do that this time, but if you look at my photos, there does seem to be something going on with the center...

taking seasonality into account the lack of Turkey astounds me. Unless they were insisting on everything being fresh, which judging by them being in front of a freezer, was not the case. Oh, and I hate the catering challenges....

have been on Topolo’s menu two weeks ago when jfood ate there. Andrew – Big rise in stock with the duck taco and then crash and burn at the judges' table and he looked like a coked up maniac chef. In the dumpster with...

My mom’s version of sh|t on a shingle was making a ‘burnt flour gravy’. She’d brown hash meat in one pan and in another (she had a special pan for this), slowly burn flour. When the flour was between dark...

Dos Rancheros is a great example of the fast burn-out syndrome. They were great for a few months, and have been running on fumes ever since. I forgot in previous postings to mention Portchester. Superb Mexican up there. Its heavy...

the ones at the supermarket... They are much much fresher, and excess fossil fuels haven’t been burned to get the foods there like they are to get foods to your supermarket. Finally, when looking for organic produce, if...

Agreed. I ended up with a gold and silver tone place settings for 12, as well as a 12 qt tabletop roaster that needs to be run OUTSIDE so that manufacturing residue and fumes can burn off prior to use. I’m not making this...

Yes, Mona Lisa is still there, I think we’re going there later this week. That and the Foster’s Freezer are the only things that are consistent in that area. The market that used to be a couple doors down from Mona...

Yes, but having cut, broken, burned and done various things to my fingers through the years, it hurts like hell, and it came right before he was going to cook for Lidia. I would have been in tears.

have been cooked well, but that may have been the judges looking for something positive to say. The celery was salty and the sauce was burned, and the dish was inedible. She was so thrown by the whole challenge that she...

an hour or until the juices run clear. For a large bird, allow plenty of time and cook it at 350. Put some water in the pan so the drippings don’t burn, and use them for sauce or gravy.

I feel your pain—literally. I made each course as well and the night before I was so busy I foolishly tried to puree my hot soup in a blender. The arm that was holding the lid down (that was blown off) is burned. Everything...

I haven’t seen any statistics on the energy used in shipping and manufacturing and disposing of the various bulbs vs. energy expenditure in burning the bulbs , but it’s an interesting question indeed. What is your...
