I have that Polder thermometer. It doesn't register the oven temp at all.

I really like this idea! Incredibly easy, and I think it looks just lovely; what an interesting texture.

Love it! Thanks for the bar photos, they're so fun to examine.

No one has mentioned the staining....I found out that turmeric is photosensitive so if you've turned a utensil or piece of clothing yellow try leaving it in the sunlight to help fade more quickly.

I just used my Trader Joe's box of Israeli couscous last week. I tossed it with some blanched broccoli trees, a quick greek dressing and ricotta salata. It was very satisfying; I'm go...

I don't work at Whole Foods, but I've never seen them either. Really odd. Maybe you should speak to the store management.

Wow. I think you're asking the wrong question here. :) I have a Lodge cast iron enameled dutch oven - it is nowhere near as expensive as Le Creuset and is high-quality and beautiful w...

Love that pasta/vegetable article. Just curious, but is there a reason I cannot remember you featuring the Washington Post? Is there some objection to the Beard award-winning section ...

Wow, great ideas here! I would also love details about baked oatmel, and I love learning new things - never heard of Cardoon - do you get yours in your yard or at the farmer's market? ...

I actually don't own a knife that I'm particularly fond of, but I've been drooling over MAC knives, like the one Eric Ripert's been using in his aveceric.com videos!

It's Harold McGee, and he does always have the answer!

Dana, your posts are not translating well to the RSS feed - specifically the punctuation. Are you writing elsewhere and then pasting? Something's not working.

Uhhh...I just commented on the thread attached to the post but after submitting my address it took me here, which seems to be a different thread, so.... English Breakfast is my fave. ...

English Breakfast loose leaf does it for me; in a mug (tea plus paper cups = ew). I love adding milk to it, which makes it a fave comfort food, but I drink it plain often as well.

PLEA to site editors: If you're going to switch to only displaying two lines of text in the RSS feed (i.e. this morning), it would be a huge help to those of us who would like to view ...

ooooh! just used my bf's to make chipotle grilled chicken sandwiches, which were fantastic and will definitely need to be made again. I praise this kitchen implement weekly. would love to have o...
