This sounds like the difference between grits and cornmeal to me. For grits the husk would be removed before grinding, I'm not sure if this is what they do to harina. Apartment Therapy The Kitchn \| What's the Difference? Blue Corn Meal vs. Harinilla Flag this comment	6/18/08 11:07 AM
Generally I'm very happy to have our place smell like whatever we've been cooking. However, my fiancée hates fish, and gets really unhappy if she comes home and I've been frying salmon.

If I end up with a burnt crust in the risotto, I just call it "paella inspired". Apartment Therapy The Kitchen \| Kitchen Meditation: Three Things That Inspired Me This Week Flag this comment	4/20/08 7:51 AM
Does anyone know what goes into Tea Masala? I'd like to try making some of my own. Apartment Therapy The Kitchen \| Recipe: Authentic Chai Flag this comment	4/9/08 9:52 AM
Yours look awesome. I made a version a while ago (http://www.gourmetproject.ca/?p=184), and wasn't blown away. I think it all comes down to the quality of the olives. Does anyone have a recommendation for a good brand? Apartment Therapy The Kitchen \| Recipe: Cheddar Olives Flag this comment	4/9/08 8:43 AM
Your method sounded excellent, right up to the last line. "Move the steak from the pan to the platter and serve immediately". Where's the resting? cutting into a 1 1/2 inch steak right away (other than for a little doneness check) is going to send juices running all over you plate, and leave you disappointed. Covering and resting it for 5 - 10 minutes will let everything settle out, and you'll be much happier. Also, I find the palm texture method works well for checking a steak's doneness, especially for thicker cuts.

We pick up a couple pounds of espresso from Gorilla every time we're in Brooklyn. I just enjoyed a shot this morning. Very few other places manage to get so much flavour and intensity into their beans. Apartment Therapy The Kitchen \| NYC: Where Do You Buy Your Coffee Beans? Flag this comment	1/31/08 6:38 AM
hmmm, I'm logged in, and can comment, but apparently I can't answer the survey. I'm not sure what's going on. I'm running firefox 2.0.0.11 under kubuntu. Anyway, Jacques Pepin is a close second behind Julia for me. Apartment Therapy The Kitchen \| Survey: Who's Your Favorite PBS Cooking Host? Flag this comment	12/18/07 3:09 PM
Overall I think the site redesign looks OK, but I'm more concerned about your feeds. I'm sure many regular readers follows the site through RSS, and click through to comment. I really don't like the lack of full posts in the feeds. I understand that you need our page views to get paid, but I'd much rather have the ads inlined with the feed. That way you can meet the bottom line, and we can view your content in a convenient way. In the previous version I read most of the content, even if I wasn't super intrigued by a post, and I often found a great little nugget of info part way through. In the new version I'm much less likely to click through unless I find a post intriguing right off-the-bat. I'm sure I'll be missing out on some great stuff. Oh, the old RSS feed should be redirected to the new one, I only found out about the change when I got to wondering why I hadn't had anything pop up from you guys in a while.

I tried The Gourmet Cookbook's version of this dish, and it was pretty rotten. This one sounds much better, thanks. Apartment Therapy - Recipe: Ajiaco (Chicken and Potato) Soup Flag this comment	10/30/07 11:00 AM
