Recipe: Perfect Instant Pot Oatmeal
My sister wanted to do a recipe that would help her get familiar with her Instant Pot, and this Perfect Instant Pot Oatmeal fits the bill. Perfect because it is creamy, filling and just sweet enough with only 1 T … Continue reading
Recipe: Blackened Green Beans
Blackened green beans make a very versatile dish. In the Sichuan original, they are mixed with ground pork which has been sautéed with wine and soy sauce and preserved salty vegetable. At Ric Orlando’s New World Bistro in Albany, they … Continue reading
Recipe: Sourdough Flatbread Crackers
Sourdough flatbread crackers are a fine way to use up leftover sourdough starter, though you can also make up the dough from scratch. Simply bust out your calculator and work a formula that will end up at 50% hydration (or … Continue reading
Recipe: Japanese Spinach with Sesame Seeds

Recipe: Crispy Cornmeal Pork Chops
Crispy Cornmeal Pork Chops is our simplification of a recipe in Sean Brock’s Heritage cookbook. The acid and bacteria in the buttermilk help to tenderize the pork and its fat binds the cornmeal coating to the meat. Use a good … Continue reading
Recipe: Grilled Artichokes
I dislike the experience of dipping cold, tasteless artichoke leaves in mayo or butter, just to get the nugget of meat at the end. This grilled artichokes recipe is a vast improvement. Every inch is soaked in flavor so you’ll … Continue reading
Super Bowl Taste Test: Chicago Style Hot Dogs
The Super Bowl Taste Test almost didn’t happen, because of last week’s bitter weather in Chicago. My order from Vienna Beef sat on the tarmac for days till I finally gave up and started planning an alternative attraction. Then, late … Continue reading
