I've heard of some of these rules before, but I really think they're more related to personal taste. I don't really like cool colors very much, so I wouldn't want them to be terribly present in my...

I love the idea! I haven't had one since I was very young.

Yeah - I have one in storage - I'm just not a fan. I find it a pain to clean, and it consistently dries my food out. Or dried, rather.

No, I've never noticed this at all. I say stick to pastured eggs whenever possible and this issue will be non-existent!

You must be joking. Nooooooooo!

Almost agree with djangobojangles. What a photo. What a dish.

Seriously beautiful. I'm thinking this with lemon rice pudding for dessert - I can't think of anything more comforting. Thanks Faith!

Sounds AMAZING! Thank you!

All of the above sound great to me - grapeseed, coconut, olive - all lovely fats! I avoid canola as much as possible, as it's all quite processed and not one of the better veg oils out there.

Humans evolved to eat cooked foods - with certain foods, many of their nutrients are unavailable to us unless they are cooked. Just throwing that out there, since many people seem to equate raw fo...

Any lactose intolerants tried raw dairy products (as in, unpasteurized)? Many many people have no reactions to raw milk. You didn't hear about lactose intolerance existing until people started pa...

From what I've read/seen, all (or at least most!) native cultures soak beans before preparing them. Soaking some varieties with whey can help break them down a bit. But to all those who said they...

I don't think people need to stop being "self-righteous" about food. Nor do I think we should calm down. For SO LONG people - particularly in this country - have been extremely ignorant about whe...

My favorite food, if I must choose, would be dates. I love every variety, every stage. I don't think they get enough attention in the US, and I'd love it if she included recipes with dates - alth...

BUT, if it's true that Grana cows are fed silage and Parmigiano cows are grass-fed, then it's definitely worth the extra $ to buy cheese made from milk by happy, healthy cows without acidic stomachs!

Pasteurization was developed so that humans could drink sub-standard quality milk, that otherwise would have been unfit for consumption. It's a relatively new practice. Humans were drinking unpas...

There's a great article about Eggs Benedict and all its cousins in the recent breakfast-themed issue of Saveur - it's great!

I have a variety of Fiesta dishes in white, light blue, minty green and dark blue. The dark blue is my favorite. I think it's just a matter of personal preference - there's something about food a...

A lovely organic onion soup!
