I think that Ina Garten's recipe for her classic cheesecake is a possible solution - she starts baking at a very high temperature, and incrementally lowers the temperature at intervals. I have had...

I did Union Market last year - it was a bit of a fiasco, because I ordered ahead, and they ended up losing my order number. However, they finally got me a turkey, and it was a delicious one.

this might sound bizarre, but i a) clean up any food spills immediately, b) vacuum the whole (800 sq ft) apartment 4-5 times a week, and c) generally wipe down the kitchen floor on a night that i u...

I really, really love the Genji Ginger Miso dressing, the one by the sushi at Whole Foods. It's really expensive, and I hate buying prepared foods, does anyone have any recipes?

We looked at the Portica from Room and Board, but it was really, really, quite tall. We got Copenhagen - we love it! Simple, clean, and modern.

the stuff in cartons just doesn't taste good. when i lived in spain, they had these orange squeezing machines in every cafe and restaurant. i would get it as a treat, or as a quick breakfast on t...

the container store does a great look a like of the dwr shelves for half the price.

We use a Erlenmeyer Flask - it's modern, super cheap, we throw it in the dishwasher and it's not something that breaks easily.

I do this horribly dangerous thing that involves smacking the blade of my chef's knife against the edge to get a little bite and open the lid just enough to break the seal.

I have never ever understood watching a cooking show where someone uses Cool-whip, but maybe that's just me.

I did this a while ago, on accident, but I have never gone back. I don't use a container, I find that they just sort of nestle nicely so they are usually together anyways...

Again, I thought that it was comfortable to sleep on every night... but we did order a mattress pad to put on top.

I would thin it out a bit with water, reduce it down with some balsamic, and serve it with something like grilled lamb...

I used to have this couch. We slept on it for 3 months before we got a bed - and it was fantastic. Super comfortable, and we thought that making it a bed was quick and easy, even after working 16...

forget the map, that is the desk that I have been looking for? does anyone have any info on it?

having grown up in buffalo, we had the unique gift of cheap canadian beer - molson and labatt. everytime i visit my parents i bring back a few racks, mmmm. they were so much tastier, with higher ...

I freeze it overnight, throw it into the blender with some mint, simple syrup (to your taste), and vodka. Delicious adult smoothie every time.

Once I made this recipe that included frozen corn and brown sugar, and it made a massive quantity of guacomole, but it was the best guacamole that I ever had, and the whole bowl was eaten by 5 peop...

Mara - are these simply breaded and deep-fried? I didn't know about this being an east-coaster, and it has peeked my curiosity. It sounds like Wednesday's dinner experiment has been lined up for me

Are those deep fried cheese curds? There is no way that could be bad...
