I think that this sounds a little silly. Be careful about portion sizes and don't waste food. I think that people need to pay attention to how much they serve themselves rather than leave a bite or...
Depending on the kind of soup, you can use a variety of vegetables to make it thicker. You can use some carrot in tomato soup, for instance. Pureeing some of the vegetables has always done it for m...
I'm not sure what the problem is with garlic powder in the minds of some people. I use real garlic a lot, but it's a different ingredient than the powder. Each has its place depending on the food ...
@geekgirl The Japanese are just as freaked about germs. They go around wearing surgical masks during cold and flu seasons and the swine flu uproar has them putting antibacterial hand soap all over ...
I did a variation with kaboucha (Japanese pumpkin) since I don't have access to squash in Tokyo. I used couscous, chicken, carrots, and onions which I seasoned with soy sauce and mirin. I skipped c...
I don't look in other people's carts because I think it's rude. Most people only look in others carts so that they can judge their purchases and decide if they're buying the food they think people ...
The peanut butter pinwheels look a lot like potato candy. A very similar recipe with mashed potato instead of butter is used to make a candy which looks just like the one pictured. It sounds bad, b...
I read an easy method for perfect rice in a pot every time and have used it many times with success. I don't like the idea of a rice cooker for a job that is so simple. It's like buying an applianc...
I agree with those who say Halloween is not the time to concern yourself with controlling junk food. Parents are the ones in charge of such things. They should ration the candy and treats their kid...
I crave fruit juice when I have a cold. Otherwise, I never drink juice of any kind. I occasionally use orange juice in quick breads, but otherwise never consume it because it's too sweet.
These glass jars look only marginally different from similar ones that have been around for years (likely decades). I don't get what all of the praise is about. The lids slightly curved and indente...
I just peel them, slice them and eat them. They're just like any other fruit, though I like the "acidic" ones more than the "sweet" ones (which are darker inside).
For me, it is pancakes and muffins. I can make great pancakes with white flour, but want to keep tweaking whole wheat variations so I can get one which is healthy, but still tasty. Muffins, on the ...
Yuzu always struck me as being a cross between grapefruit, lemon and orange flavors (hence the combination of flavors). I would imagine a similar sauce to ponzu could be made without yuzu if you co...
Sorry, but this is one of the weakest "tips" that has been offered. It amounts to: 1. Take cool, creamy food. 2. Top with fruit and nuts. 3. Yum!
Putting fruit and nuts on a cool, crea...
People who eat peanut butter by the spoonful need to be mindful of the fact that it is very dangerous to eat it in such a manner. If you choke, peanut butter (without an accompanying item like brea...
Just a quick note that this works even better if you use hot milk and a little melted butter. The hot milk makes the texture smoother. The butter makes it less likely to be totally absorbed into wh...
If you're kid is young enough to get a kick out of cutesy bentos, he is also probably too young to really appreciate the time going into crafting it. It's a lot of time and effort for very little r...

I love the maple and vanilla, and recently discovered the sugar cookie sleigh ride flavor. It's amazing how it really smells like sugar cookies.

I always make my husband a cup of lemon and honey (2 tbsp. of honey, juice of 1/2 a lemon and about 10 ounces of 70 degree C. water). It works well.
