Hacking the secret McDonald’s menu through online ordering
Fast food places are promoting their online ordering, through a browser or a proprietary app. Nothing wrong with that. And I’ve discovered that you can hack the online ordering system to create a secret McDonald’s menu which would be difficult … Continue reading
Recipe: Chili Crisp Ice Cream
Spicy Chili Crisp is the Sichuan condiment that’s taking the world by storm (our world anyway). It’s crunchy and flavorful without being overly hot, and has a bonus picture of a grumpy housewife on the label. What could be better? … Continue reading

Recipe: Coconut Macaroons
Coconut macaroons are really easy to make if you start with Eagle brand sweetened condensed milk. This recipe is just sweet enough, not overly sweet like the macaroons that taste like candy; I’m adding them to my holiday cookie rotation. … Continue reading
Recipe: Bourbon Persimmon Bread
My California friend Carol Worthington Levy came up with this delicious version of Bourbon Persimmon Bread, using persimmons grown in her own back yard. It’s modified from a recipe that originally appeared in Beard on Bread. Makes two 9-inch loaves. … Continue reading
Self-Guided Culinary Tours
I was late to the Fuchsia Dunlop Sichuan party, thanks to the temporary scarcity of her classic Land of Plenty cookbook. (It’s now back in stock at Amazon at regular prices.) I loved her recipes, and loved her initiative in … Continue reading
