Go to the library and check out “The Frugal Gourmet Cooks American” by Jeff Smith. Chapters on the colonies, George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Plains Indians etc. Some stories behind the recipes as well. You should...

if such a station or series already exists. But I suspect not. I only see PBS cooking shows on the weekends. I tell ya, if the PBS pledge drives were willing to show those old-skool classics (along with very early Julia, Graham...

I remember my mother watching Chef Tell and the Galloping Gourmet along with Julia. I began watching when Jeff Smith, the Frugal Gourmet, was hitting his stride. In my mind, THAT was when the genre’s popularity exploded.

How do they taste on the Granny Smith - Red Delicious spectrum? And why is this reminding me of the Seinfeld Mackinaw peach episode?

Any comments regarding Atlanta Fish Market?

My, er Jeff Smiths, old standby is easy to get addicted to. Easy and FN quick. Good in hot weather. Lentils, lemon juice, green onions, Done! Optionally a little spice, garlic. http://life-eos.blogspot.com/2007/10/lentil-salad.html...

Thank you for that. Given all the facetious comments below, I was afraid you were gonna recommend I bring a Mrs. Smith's pie. No really, thanks; your words are helpful and memorable. Btw, I bought a bottle of Nappa Valley Pinot...

Non-stick works for me ... my Calphalon served me well. Regarding non-stick, stainless or otherwise, consider the quote from one of the more controversial food gurus, Jeff Smith: Hot pan, cold oil, food won’t stick." Ya gotta...

I have an old Jeff Smith (Frugal Gourmet) cookbook featuring three cuisines. He takes the pork belly, smears it w/a hoisin-garlic sauce, then roasts it and it comes out like the roasted pig from a chinese deli! I’ve tried...
