Moist enough not to need a dressing but a mustardy one would be good if you felt the need.
Cooking the ingredients separately before adding them to the pizza allows for a unique layering of flavors
Cut the top part of each pear (like lids) and carefully remove hard part with seeds. Fill the holes with Gorgonzola.
Since butternut squash is easiest to use in cube form I wanted to use a pasta that would go better with it and I thought that orecchiette would work well if I cut the squash small enough to be cupped by the little ear shaped pasta.
Somehow, this combination of barley cooked with dry marsala and red wine somehow tastes like this incredibly meaty dish, and the closest thing is a few tablespoons of butter, and some chicken stock, easily replaceable by olive oil and vegetable stock.
Certain pastas are best eaten with certain sauces. Others work well with a wide variety of sauces—the workhorse pastas, like farfalle. The general rule is that delicate noodles are for delicate sauces while heartier noodles are for heartier sauces, but similar to wine pairing, it’s not always that simple.
I scrambled these eggs using my espresso machines steamwand.
With nothing more than a stalk of lemongrass, a bulb of garlic, some fish sauce and sugar, this marinade punches and kicks the liveliness of Saigon in your mouth.

I was never more impressed than when [Jean-Georges Vongerichten] created his version of fried rice, topped with crisp ginger and a fried egg.
Indeed, it was a most delicate and refined biscuit, topped with a house-made sausage patty and a smooth, saucelike gravy. Pure elegance.

I also know what it’s like to finish work, get home and want dinner right now. No fussing involved. And this is when I fall-back on my four favourite Easy Vegetables
* spinach
* fresh herbs
* tinned legumes
* tinned tomatoes.
Each of these is quick and easy to prepare
This post marks the start of a new column by artisan butcher Tom Mylan, who will be writing regularly on all things flesh ... Here is a quick and dirty primer to what a side of beef can tell you without saying a single word.
don’t cook cold meat ... preheat properly ... thin is in ... don’t poke & prod ... don’t fuel the fire with fat ... remember food hygiene ... rest ... clean your BBQ ... earn the right to be BBQ queen (or king) ... expand your BBQ repetoire
minimaist BBQ steak ... toasted breadcrumb salsa
Drink More Water ... Create a Salad Bar in Your Fridge ... Remember, Color Equals Nutrition ... Keep a Food Journal ... Investigate Funky Grains ... Ask, “Would I Eat an Apple?” ... When in Doubt, Sauté with Garlic ... Eat Breakfast in Bed ... Bag Half to Go ... If It Has a Label, Don’t Eat It.
The result of this recipe is creamy without a drop of dairy (though a little crème fraîche or Greek yogurt can be dolloped in to finish it).
“Well, let’s change the recipe so the duck just renders in its own fat and you don’t need to add any more to the pan,” he suggested.
You can do that?
“Sure,” he said. “It’s not traditional but would work just fine for small batches at home.”
The average Canadian tea drinker ... steeps tea for less than 30 seconds. That leaves most of the flavour and antioxidants in your tea bag or pot. While low-grade black tea can get bitter if steeped longer than 30 seconds, a good black tea should be steeped for at least three minutes in water that has just boiled
Making stock starts with saving scraps. I have containers in my freezer where I save ham, chicken, turkey, or beef scraps and bones until I have enough to make stock.
Lamb braised in milk. Huh? Okay, yes, I know it sounds weird (at least it did to me at first) but hear me out. It's just a spin on a traditional Italian recipe of pork braised in milk, in which the milk reduces down to a rich and creamy white sauce.
A few foods that freeze well, and that would make great meals for a new parent, are most soups, stews, chili, curry, meaty braises, and lasagna. You can also make dumplings or ravioli and then freeze them. Also, you can make your own version of mix and match bagged meals. Also try this thread for some ideas ...
Soboro Donburi is essentially seasoned ground meat and egg (usually scrambled) over rice. It's an extremely simple dish and it makes for a fantastic and quick mid-week meal. You can use any type of ground meat for this recipe, but I consider ground chicken thigh to have the best flavor.
But this roast cauliflower from David Chang and Peter Meehan’s new cookbook is a little fresher, a little brighter and spicier. It has fragrant cilantro and mint and just enough heat. You could serve this with jasmine rice and a pork chop or a nice piece of arctic char—it’s a little intense to eat as a main course.

Watercress is a perennial herb and part of the Nasturtium family and is known for its peppery flavours. As it ages though these flavours can turn bitter so it's best to use younger specimens.
In the red corner, we have the traditionalists – Delia, Gordon, Larousse Gastronomique – warning me to keep my precious cargo away from the sink at all costs.
Beckoning me from the blue are the hip young guns for whom rules are as old hat as Gordon himself – among them, the scientifically-minded food writer Harold McGee and his disciple Heston Blumenthal, who dismiss this ancient prohibition as 'nonsense'. Go on, they urge, give them a good old rinse.

[Somen noodles] are typically eaten chilled during the summer months, but this dish, Enoki somen ... adapted from The Japanese Kitchen by Kimiko Barber, pairs both in a warm dashi broth. I wasn’t sure what leftovers would look or taste like, so I modified to recipe to serve 1 and it was very filling.

... rutabagas are often referred to as table turnips or swedes. These brassicas are members of the mustard family, and are one of the most commonly grown and widely adapted root crops. The rutabaga is very similar to the turnip except that it generally has yellowish flesh, a denser root and smooth, waxy leaves similar to cabbage.
