I figured out last night that if I let my pizza crust do its last (short) rise on an oiled cookie sheet, I could flip it onto the preheated stone without much problem. Of course you have to top it...

Color me intrigued... I may have to see if I can track this down!

Ooh, this sounds fantastic! If I wanted to do it in the oven, what temperature would be equivalent to "high" in a slow cooker?

Oh please oh please!!!

I've recently been making pink lemonade with winter's bountiful lemons and a bit of sour cherry syrup for the color. Sweet-tart and Festive! Then I go and look out at the snow and dream of su...

That is gorgeous ! And it looks like it tastes fantastic, too!

Man, red and yellow bell peppers are $2-4 each around here. I've bookmarked the recipe for summer, though, when the farmer's market is in full swing and the peppers are local and cheap. Plus I can...

Fresh mozzarella, sliced cherry tomatoes (since they're the only flavorful ones right now), and thick-sliced bacon, all on ciabatta. Simple, salty, cheesy goodness.

Hmm, I've been trying to get more protein in my breakfast - maybe I'll give this a shot!

It's just the two of us here, too. So we're doing a smaller-sized feast - turkey legs, cranberry sauce, mashed potatoes, salad, and maybe some green beans. And for dessert: pumpkin pie, o...

I am candy-less this Halloween. :( I recently got diagnosed with an allergy to all nuts, and it seems like everything out there is of the "processed on the same equipment as nuts" variety. Any f...

It's way too hot, but tonight I'm making the French-style Pot Roast from the most recent Cook's Illustrated. Should be really yummy, but maybe I'll turn the AC back on... Oh, and late...

Huh. So would a food mill have fixed the texture of my butternut squash soup? It came out a bit grainy, not nearly as smooth and unctuous as I was expecting.

I've heard that you can make steel-cut oats in a rice cooker, but I'm not quite sure how to go about it. Does anyone else do that, and can you give me some tips?

Ohh, poo. That first link is screwed up, but that's her first entry right now.

Kari-Anne: Heidi of 101 Cookbooks has a few, one lentil based (http://www.101cookbooks.com/archives/vegetarian-lentil-burgers-recipe.html ) and one chickpea based (http://www.101cookbo...

I just discovered that I love Townhouse Bistro Cornbread crackers topped with salami and havarti. So tomorrow it'll be those, a cuke and an apple from the farmer's market, and maybe a brownie if I...

Weird, I remember reading about the problems with diacetyl and "popcorn workers' lung" several years ago. What suddenly re-broke the story? For my part, I bought my fiancee a whirly...

Fiancee's parents sent us a pair of jumbo live Maine lobsters to celebrate our engagement. I have no idea how much it cost, but hot damn they were yummy.

I'd make shortbread cookies. I don't have a recipe, because I've never actually tried to make them, but if I ended up with a pound of really good butter, I'd want to turn them into buttery, flaky ...
