Over on CNN food blog Eatocracy Jennifer Wolfe stirs the pot and reveals the tension simmering just below the surface when it comes to chefs and “foodies”:

[Ron] Eyester [executive chef and owner of Rosebud in Atlanta] laughs, “The foodie feels empowered by their passion for food, which creates a false bravado of how knowledgeable they think they are about food. The ironic part is they’re simply being spoon fed something from a food personality: ‘Well I saw something on the Food Network, and why don’t you have it?’”"Well because we try to cook seasonably and that jacka** was probably in California.”

To be fair, not all the chefs quoted in the piece knocked “foodies,” and Wolfe quotes an unnamed Boston chef as… Continue reading

Roast chickens are a simple and satisfying meal anytime, and the smell of it roasting on a Sunday evening can set a positive tone for the whole week ahead. Squeezing lemon juice over the body of the bird helps to not only season the final product, but can also help crisp the skin. And roasting the… Continue reading

VIEW SLIDESHOW: Super Bowl Partytime: How to Build an Edible Stadium

[Photographs: Robyn Lee and J. Kenji Lopez-Alt]

There are Super Bowl parties, and then there are Super Bowl parties that have a mini edible stadium on display. After this step-by-step tutorial on how to make one, you should strive to host or attend the latter.

Our mission was to construct an all-edible stadium (well, minus the cardboard box and foil) with foods we’d actually want to eat. We used the classic partytime snacks, particularly stuff that only involved… Continue reading

Every year in March basketball madness sweeps the U.S. as the NCAA championship tournament unfolds.* And once again this year, we at SE helped put together Every Day with Rachael Ray‘s annual food bracket. Last year it was pizza. This year, the magazine asked us to focus on hot dogs.

After more than 3,000 miles of travel and dozens of stands and wieners later, Ed, Hawk, and I narrowed it down to 64 contenders. Then, after much discussion, a few tense moments, and a little indigestion, we arrived at a winner. We can’t reveal the top dog yet, but for now, here’s the bracket.

We’ll be rolling out subsequent rounds over the next few… Continue reading

“Managing a restaurant is not glamorous!” I was warned. (But I was never in it for the glamor.) “It’s a hard lifestyle,” my mom chimes in once and again. The exceedingly nice man who has owned the bar nextdoor for thirty-some years told me that he strictly forbid his now grown children from working in restaurants: “Didn’t want them going through what I went through.”

I never planned to peruse restaurant management. I wanted to be a writer (still do!), or a chef (no more), or a political strategist, or a professor.

But all through college I worked in New York restaurantland. I slugged away in a kitchen making Niçoise salads and cherry clafoutis. I hostessed in a fancy fancy French place and a… Continue reading

It’s been our tradition for a while now to eat a vegetarian meal at least once a week. I’ve been wanting to test out a vegetarian fajita recipe for a while and finally got around to it.
I like to eat vegetarian once in a while to help increase my vegetable intake and it’s pretty simple to dream up vegetarian version of some of my favorite recipes using a few simple guidelines.

“Almost” Vegetarian
Many recipes are so close to vegetarian already that you simply have to make a small change, such as substituting a vegetable based broth for a meat broth. Another easy fix is omitting a bacon garnish.
Try Tofu, Eggs, or Cheese in Lieu of Meats
These simple meat substitutes… Continue reading

So bread has kind of been the theme this week, huh? First I told you about how I learned that it wasn’t so hard to make Light Whole Wheat Baguette using Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day, then I made Homemade Croutons with that very same baguette.
Shaina was nice enough to share a delicious recipe for Raspberry Vanilla Bean Bread Pudding, another great recipe that you can use leftover baguette in. So many delicious recipes that you can make using a simple baguette.

I love to eat gourmet sandwiches, but it’s not exactly inexpensive to head over to a local deli or diner on a weekly basis. Instead, I make gourmet sandwiches at home using baguette… Continue reading

I am so excited for my friend Carrie’s new cookbook: Deliciously Organic. The book is full of fresh, vibrant flavored recipes that are actually good for you. Carrie makes going organic sound so simple and no-nonsense as she shares all kinds of incredibly helpful and practical information on eating organic and how to simply make the change without stressing too much – and why it’s important to eat organically.

Another thing that I’m loving about this book is that it’s photographed by another friend of mine, Helene from Tartelette. I can’t stop looking at the book. Each recipe and photo calls out to me: “Make me….Eat me!”
We’ve enjoyed quite a few of Carrie’s recipes already. The raspberry almond muffins were… Continue reading

You know what is really annoying? Making a baked potato, thinking it is done and then when you cut into it the middle is still hard. That’s what happens when I toss the potatoes into the oven and don’t really pay attention to what I am doing or how long they’re cooking.

I feel them and think they’re done, but they aren’t really. Here’s a (in my book) fool-proof way for perfect, crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside baked potatoes.
The first method assumes that you have plenty of time, you’re not in a rush and you’ve planned ahead. The second way, a variation of the first, produces equally delicious results in a fraction of the time. For those days… Continue reading

We have what I like to call a “stash” of frozen, over-ripe bananas in our freezer. And it seems as if that “stash” replenishes itself at an exponential rate. It’s not that the bananas don’t get eaten, because Eric and Logan both love them. But I think every once in a while a batch of bananas ripens a little too quickly.

I don’t do anything special to the over-ripe bananas to store them in the freezer. I know some like to mash and pre-measure amounts for their favorite banana recipes, but I just toss the banana in the freezer. Peel and all.
Not fond of the texture or really even the taste of plain bananas, Madeline and I only like ti eat them… Continue reading

Chicken Parmesan feels like home. I’ve been making it for so long that I barely remember the first time that I made it. I know that it was sometime during college, because at one point I remember having roommates who were amazed that I could cook something so good.
And that’s when cooking when from an activity I enjoyed to a bit of an obsession. I was lucky enough to have one other roommate who was also a very good cook (who I am so very lucky to still be in touch with on a regular basis and get to visit often – Hi, Nila!).
Somehow the two of us convinced the other 4 that we should start a meal rotation. That it made… Continue reading

Three of my favorite things: Black Beans, Mexican, and Pizza all in one recipe. I knew from the start that this was going to be a quick favorite around here.
There’s nothing gourmet about it. But sometimes that’s not what I’m craving. In fact, I’d been craving ooey, gooey, cheesy Mexican all week and this was the perfect way to satisfy those cravings.

With the Super Bowl quickly approaching on the calendar, I can’t help but think how perfect this Black Bean Mexican Pizza would be for a Game Day Party! It’s a cinch to make too. I typically make Cook’s Illustrated’s Pizza Crust recipe (related: Barbecue Chicken Pizza), but this time I decided to give Artisan

I have never made homemade granola bars. I thought it was time to change that. They looked pretty simple and it’s always nice to have a semi-healthy sweet on hand for a snack or to grab on my way out to take the kids to school if I don’t have time to eat breakfast beforehand.

Then I had the idea to make gingerbread inspired granola bars. Instead of honey as the sweetener as is used in many recipes I substituted molasses and maple syrup and used plenty of ginger and other gingerbread inspired spices.
I can’t wait to try flavor combos using this easy formula. Next time I’ll make a double batch in a 9×13 inch baking pan. They store well in the… Continue reading

Sometimes not having time to make what’s originally on the menu can be a blessing. Sure it’s a hassle to figure out a new plan and make it work, especially when you’re just not sure what to do with the ingredients that you have for the recipe that’s no longer the plan.
But sometimes that’s when really great recipes are created. Because you’re forced to work with what you have and to make something out of it. Enter: Red Beans and Rice with Andouille Sausage.

I know this song and dance all too well. I like to make a meal plan and have all that sorted out for the week and the necessary groceries on hand, but usually once a week something comes… Continue reading

BILLINGS, Mont. — Wild bison allowed to migrate north of Yellowstone National Park for the first time in decades have strayed off their new grazing grounds three times since their arrival this week, park officials said Friday.
The 25 animals will be hazed back onto the Gallatin National Forest if they leave again, officials said, but it was uncertain what would happen if they continued to enter areas where they could encounter cattle.
Wildlife officials fear cows could be infected with a disease carried by the Yellowstone bison. Brucellosis can cause animals to prematurely abort their young.
For years, bison trying to leave Yellowstone to graze at lower elevations in Montana were captured and slaughtered to prevent the spread of brucellosis. The 25… Continue reading

The game of fetch is not just for dogs, as a parakeet named Chi-Chi once taught us.
Driving home that point is Twiglet, a domestic rat who has been taught a series of impressive tricks (jumping through a hoop, for one) by YouTube user MasterOfTheMidgets.
"My rats used to run off with the ball," MasterOfTheMidgets says, "but with persistent training they seemed to decide they would rather have the treat."
You can see more of Twiglet's tricks and watch rat-training tutorials at MasterOfTheMidgets' YouTube channel.

SAN FRANCISCO — A new federal proposal to tighten leash rules on parkland in and around San Francisco has many dog owners barking mad.
The 2,400-page plan released this month by the Golden Gate National Recreation Area, the country's largest urban national park, would mandate leashes in open spaces where dogs currently roam untethered. Some popular dog-walking areas would be closed to canines entirely, partly to protect wildlife and native plants.
The proposed rules cover about 14,000 acres of the 75,000-acre recreation area, which includes portions of San Francisco, San Mateo and Marin counties and is the only national park in the country to allow dogs off-leash.
Since it was published Jan. 14, the document has triggered a flurry of blogging, newspaper columns and calls… Continue reading

LACEY TOWNSHIP, N.J. — Animal welfare authorities are offering a $1,000 reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the person responsible for dumping a group of soft-shell turtles by the roadside in northern New Jersey.
The animals, which are from the south and cannot survive in the northeast climate, were spotted by a motorist along the Passaic River in West New York on Thursday. A woman stopped her car when she saw a flock of seagulls attacking them, shooed them away, and called for help.
Four of the 10 turtles had frozen to death; the remaining six were taken to an animal shelter and are recovering from wounds they suffered in the bird attack.

Ellie, a young river otter pup who was orphaned or abandoned by her mother, is thriving despite her ordeal, thanks to the efforts of volunteers with the group Dorset Wildlife Rescue in southern England.
According to the group, Ellie will soon begin an extensive rehabilitation program, expected to last about a year, through which she'll learn the skills necessary to survive in the wild. When she's "graduated" from the program, she'll be released.
Ellie joins another young otter orphan named Niamh and a host of other rescued animals in various stages of rehabilitation, ranging from bats to deer to birds of prey, at Dorset Wildlife Rescue.

ANCHORAGE — A highly endangered whale that spends summers in Russian waters has crossed from the Bering Sea into the Gulf of Alaska.
American and Russian researchers have tracked the 13-year-old male western Pacific gray whale, dubbed “Flex,” from Russia across the Bering Sea, through the Aleutian Islands into the Gulf of Alaska about 400 miles south of the Alaskan fishing community of Cordova.
Bruce Mate, head of Oregon State University’s Marine Mammal Institute, called the whale’s location “pretty darn amazing.” No one has documented winter habits of western gray whales, he said. Others of the species may spend winters elsewhere, but a route over deep water in the Bering Sea and the Gulf of Alaska is “something of a paradigm shift”… Continue reading

HARARE, Zimbabwe — Poachers are using aircraft to hunt and kill rhinoceros, Zimbabwe's wildlife chief said Tuesday, as demand in Asia for their horns' supposed medicinal benefits grows.
Seven endangered rhinos were killed in southern Zimbabwe from early December to Jan. 19, representing about one-third of all 22 rhinos poached throughout 2010, Parks and Wildlife director general Vitalis Chidenga said.
He said the poachers, including local recruits, were well-equipped with sophisticated weapons. Five of the rhinos were shot in one park in the southwestern Matabeleland province, he said.
Rhino horn is prized in Asia as a traditional cure for everything from colds to impotence and it is used to fashion ceremonial dagger handles in oil-rich countries in the Middle East.
Chidenga said the southern African nation… Continue reading

People have been known to pay princely sums for so-called "designer dogs" at pet stores and over the Internet, so think of little Brandy (ID #A3693890) as the bargain of the century. Brandy, a female Maltipoo, is available for adoption at the L.A. County animal control department's Carson shelter. But of course, the important thing about adopting a dog like Brandy isn't saving money — it's saving the life of a needy pet!
Breed: Maltese/poodle mix
Age: About 4 years; Weight: 12 pounds
About Brandy: A special favorite of shelter volunteers, she is described as extremely sweet and friendly, full of puppylike fun and joie de vivre.

TAMPA, Fla. — The owner of a Florida wildlife rescue center is living in a cage with two lions, a fundraising stunt that has riled other animal rescue groups and underscores how difficult it is to keep such sanctuaries afloat.

Wearing a microphone, he talks with people who watch streaming video of his "captivity" online and post comments.
He maintains his unusual idea is a harmless way to raise $150,000 to keep the center — home to 100 animals of all types — running for the next two years… Continue reading

Man's best friend is not a driver's best friend.
While lawmakers have been banning drivers from texting or using cellphones, many motorists are riding around with another dangerous risk — their dogs.
Experts say an unrestrained dog — whether curled up on a lap, hanging out the window or resting its paws on the steering wheel — can be deadly. Tens of thousands of car accidents are believed caused every year by unrestrained pets, though no one has solid numbers.
"An unrestrained pet can be hugely distracting — if he is seeking your attention, putting his face right in front of yours, starts chewing up the upholstery or is vomiting because he is carsick," said Katherine Miller, director of applied science and research for the… Continue reading

BANGKOK — Many Asians believe the Year of the Rabbit means good luck for those born under that zodiac sign, but conservationists warn that the furry creatures themselves are being loved to death in Asia and some species are dying away altogether.
As the Lunar New Year approaches, rabbits are being snapped up from pet stores and farms but some are warning that the animals will be dumped once the novelty wears off and the cost and trouble of keeping them kicks in.
"It's believed that feeding rabbits in their zodiac will bring luck in love and everything else, so especially young people are looking for little, cute bunnies," says Piyalak Sariya, owner of the Bunny Delight rabbit farm in Thailand.

I've always loved the Azzaro collection, designed by the delightful Vanessa Seward. And I'm glad she's getting a moment in the spotlight, dressing Natalie Portman in a white jersey gown with a beaded neckline. Loris Azzaro opened his Paris fashion house in 1962 and became known for creating glamorous party dresses through the disco decade. He died in 2003 and Seward took over in 2004.

January Jones always manages to have red carpet hair so perfect, it almost looks fake — in a good way, of course.Her up-do at the SAG Awards is super shiny, and almost architectural in its shape.Jones’ hair stylist Renato Campora was inspired by the 1950s and went for something sharp and dramatic.On wet hair, Campora began by applying Fekkai Advanced Full Blown Styling Whip to create volume and Fekkai Coiff™ Contrôle Ironless Straightening Balm to smooth out the hair.  He parted the hair to the side and blow-dried using a round brush.  To accentuate the wave, he used a 1-inch curling iron setting the hair into pin curls.  Once he took the curls out, Campora brushed through the hair, creating… Continue reading

How do you open a new arts center in the San Fernando Valley? Well, Monica Mancini, declaring herself "the original Valley girl,” launched into a haunting rendition of her late father’s classic "Moon River," accompanied by Dave Koz and Arturo Sandoval.

We’re on day two of something called a “wintry mix” which I suspect if I lived in one of those places where one was forced to wear shorts and sunglasses in January, eating food plucked recently from the ground (pea tendrils, anyone?) I’d imagine constituted a fun day of mixed winter activities, like snowfall fights followed by ice skating and then, if you’re not too tuckered out, some hot cocoa before you head home. Alas, a “wintry mix” is the precise reason my only current goal in life is to flee to someplace tropic and sandy.
