The new dinnerFeed web site is a lean, mean fighting machine! Here's a favorite potato salad for days when there's a nip in the air, as it's best served slightly warm or at room temperature. It's always been my October potato salad served with grilled brats, but is there some ...
The new dinnerFeed web site is a lean, mean fighting machine! Extra hard-cooked eggs on hand? Last week I made Polish-Stuffed Eggs, which were yummy. But with a plethora of dyed eggs rolling around the salad crisper from yesterday, another favorite recipe deserves a repeat.
Alright, let's get the obvious statement out of the way right from the beginning: this sandwich has no — and I do mean NO — redeeming nutritional value. There's no arguing that peanut butter provides protein. There's no rationalizing that apricots provide vitamins A and C. There's fat, there's sugar, ...
My very good blogging buddy Angela — who features lovely simple but sophisticated recipes on Seasonal and Savory — offered the following for my "Chopped" challenge, in which I had asked readers to suggest ingredients that I would then have to use in creating dishes: "Hmmmm...how about harissa, oranges and ...
J.M. HIRSCH, AP Food Editor Are you about over bacon yet? Neither am I. In fact, our national obsession with cured pig has only made me all the more eager to explore lesser known — but equally delicious — pork parts. And there are plenty to choose from. One of ...
If planet Earth had one dish that each of her cultures could embrace as their own, that dish would very likely be built upon a foundation of beans and rice.
Today is the first day of reporting back about my "Chopped" challenge, in which I had asked my blog readers to suggest ingredients I'd have to use in preparing appetizers, entrees or desserts. I had originally intended to just pick four options to write about; but I received several extra suggestions ...
The New Yorker's Dana Goodyear has a dispatch from this week's Fancy Food Show in San Francisco, where the marriage of bacon and chocolate reigned supreme. While it seems like this flavor pairing has been in vogue for decades now, the truth is that it was dreamed up by Ann ...
I’m pondering the crazy cosmic irony that suggests Thanksgiving and Christmas are times of peace and tranquility; especially when they collide like a comet into Jupiter. Whether your holidays are spent in altruistic pursuits, creating clever greeting cards, stitching needlepoint pillows resembling your friends pets, or — sigh — cooking, ...
After Christmas — and my birthday, of course — Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday. It’s not just a food holiday; it’s a comfort food holiday! Thanksgiving day is just the beginning of the fun, though. For the rest of the weekend, we’ve got delicious leftovers (planned-overs) to enjoy. The stuffing ...
The new dinnerFeed site has just been launched! Click here for a collection of well-tested Thanksgiving recipes. A "Print-Recipe Only" function and speedy search engines make finding recipes a cinch! I thought I'd hit every base when it came to recipes for Thanksgiving. Apparently not. My son asked to make ...
Last weekend we had some foodie friends visiting from Cleveland. As we hit the Ann Arbor food hot spots, we got to talking about our favorite fall foods. At some point we discovered that we shared an unhealthy obsession with both Honeycrisp apples and bacon. We stocked up on both ...
Popcorn is the official state snack food of Illinois. I'm not much of a popcorn fan — I can eat it, but don't really care if I ever do. However, I know I'm in a distinct minority with regard to my lack of affection for this treat. Michigan will be ...
One night a few years ago, Jeremy had one of the great visions of brilliance in the culinary universe. He questioned the wisdom of cooking a burger patty and then slapping a slice of cheese onto it, only to have the cheese melt and ooze everywhere, and he also wondered ...
Tom and I ate dinner together the other night and made ourselves a hot, open-faced sandwich very typical of what he eats on a regular basis. Tom often stir-fries vegetables, and he adores sandwiches; so we combined them into one happy dish. His sister Anne (whom we consider to be ...
