Yuzu kosho. I discovered it when I started cooking with the donabe. I was inspired by the cookbook, Japanese Hot Pots which I read about here. It is a big ingredient in their second cookbook, The Japanese Grill. Our Readers' Favorite Food Discoveries of 2011 |

Everyone shouls at least once, debone the bird , stuff it and roll it. It is not the most easiest but certainly is the most memorable and has a few bonuses, such as no bickering about the white Vs. Dark meat and more room in the refrigerator. I used the Martha Stewart recipe with Todd English. How to Cook a Turkey: The Simplest, Easiest Method |

My mother used to say,"If you can read, you can cook. Most people can't read." Mind you she also said that about sewing as well!

Paltrow is the tofu of celebrities. Oops, she's a country singer. Oops she's a cookbook author. Reminds me of Jane Fonda's cookbook when she was with Ted Turner.

On yesterday's episode, Venetia made a potholder in the strict sense of the word. She used/sewed a great piece of old Japanese indigo fabric and stuffed it with bay leaves and cloves. A knot in the center kept the spices in place. She used a ribbon to hang it in her kitchen.The ceramic pot filled with soup sat on it on the table as the aromatics wafted into the diner's noses. I want to make one! At Home With Venetia In Kyoto |
