Eh, delicacy or not, the tomalley is now on the list of things not to eat. (FDA says "No recommended consumption")

It's the liver and pancreas, and collects contaminants from the environment, including toxins from the same algae that cause red tide, and heavy metals like mercury.

The meat part of the lobster's still fine, thank goodness!

Whoopie pies are trendy now? Huh. Despite the username, I'm living in Maine now, and you find them in every convenience store and pizza shop!

My mother-in-law made fancy-flavored mini-whoopies for our wedding instead of cake! Four versions: Kahlua, Maker's Mark and Blueberry, Gran Marnier with candied orange peel, and rum with toasted coconut. They were a huge hit!

Oh, yeah, on St. Louis style super thin crust! With bacon and pineapple! So bad, yet so good...

You can also use vegetable shortening - though obviously it won't taste as good.

OMG, Merm...that sounds fabulous! I may have to pick up some sprouts for my solo hot lunches!

Huh, I'm a classics nerd and a food geek, and had no idea that garum had survived through the centuries, in the form of colatura! Fascinating! Now I just have to track some down!

What else could I put in these besides walnuts and cocoa nibs? I'm super allergic to nuts, and all nibs I've ever seen have been of the "processed with nuts" variety.

(Not that there's anything wrong with pure brownie-top goodness, of course...)

I'm in Maine, and it's cold and rainy, so we're doing the Jamie Oliver milk-braised chicken and popovers. Nom.

Gah! It seems like all the retailers around here have decided that summer is officially over, and no one has popsicle molds any more! I may have to give up and buy them online...

Maine Franco-style dog: fried then grilled pork dog (none of that all-beef snobbishness) american cheese, grilled onions, mustard, relish, and crispy bits of salt pork. Mmmmm.

Mmm, on pizza! No red sauce, just cheese, garlic, a couple of anchovies, and squash blossoms!

Man, you guys are awesome! The public library has both the Kuihara and Andoh books, so I'll check them out before I make an Amazon order! And I've added Just Hungry to my blog roll. Thanks so much!

I find I'm usually disappointed with the Sunset links and have stopped following them.

The salt cones are really cool, though!

It makes my husband crazy that I go off and leave our whistle-less teapot heating on the burner unsupervised - I think he's afraid I'm going to let it boil dry. I can totally tell when it's close to boiling just by listening to the sound the water makes, though, and I've never ruined a teapot!

I love the Cook's Illustrated version, though it takes some thinking ahead. Don't have the recipe handy, but it involves zesting limes and lemons and letting the zest marinate in the juice/tequila/triple sec overnight. Oh, and a touch of sugar. Then you strain it and serve over ice. Sooooo smooth, but dangerously strong.

Man, I refuse to make BLTs with crappy grocery store tomatoes. This will have to go in the "summer foods" file, because it sounds fantastic!

I got around to making this tonight, with one significant change: I was almost out of milk, so used half 1% milk and half cream - and for those of you who are squicking out about the possible curdiness of the sauce, that's key! The extra fat keeps the sauce from curdling, and what you end up with is velvety smooth and absolutely delicious!

I make soup when I need a "be kind to yourself" meal, whether I'm stressed or getting sick, or just feeling blue. And it's the process as much as the end result. I find chopping vegetables is very soothing, and as it's simmering on the stove it makes the house smell great! When it's chock full of veggies and beans it's low-calorie, high fiber, filling and warm. Good for the soul and the body!

Oh, man, I am so excited! I developed a nut and peanut allergy a few years ago, so a lot of cookies are now right out, including girl scout cookies. The samoas were my favorite, so I will give this a try one free weekend!
