I posted this recipe last week and the response was terrific, particularly on www.sbhonline.com which is website completely given over to our favorite island. When I did so, one of the most prolific contributors to the blog, AndyNap added something terrific to the recipe. While I talked about using bottled Creamy Dijon Vinaigrette, AndyNap went to the trouble of givi

The Mediterranean Diet is back in the news with some startling test results. If you switch to a diet rich in olive oil, nuts, beans, fish, fruits and vegetables and drink wine with meals, the diet will prevent about 30 percent of heart attacks, strokes and death from heart disease. The European doctors who conducted the study ended it earlier than expected. They thought
Confession time: I used to loathe Brussels Sprouts. When I was growing up, I even made up a story to explain the Brussels Sprout. It was, I told myself, a vegetable forced on wartime Europe. I reasoned this lowly member of the cabbage family was so undesirable, it escaped the ration book. What it was doing in post-World War II Canada was beyond all understanding.

First Issue of Gourmet, January 1941 How we still miss Gourmet! Some of my earliest childhood memories are listening to my father reading aloud as he and my mother ate vicariously at Gourmet’s table. The magazine first appeared in 1941. The United States entered the war shortly thereafter. Subscribers were urged to keep their issues until the war ended. That w

Judging from the popularity of James Beard’s recipe for Roast Beef Hash, which has had 3801 pageviews, and that of Ina Garten’s Chicken Hash at 682, Hash has a special place on the tables of our readers. It certainly is at our house. Unfortunately, one of the downsides of writing a blog like this is that I virtually never make the same dish twice. This doesn’t really
Today is another milestone in the life of Chewing the Fat. This is our first guest post! It's not, however, the first appearance of its authors, my dear "cousins", Sir John and Lady Martha Stracey. The bakers among you likely swooned over Lady Martha's Austrian cookie recipes: http://www.chewingthefat.us.com/2011/12/three-authentic-austrian-cookie-recipes.html w
Grits are about as southern as my Aunt Charlotte. She hailed from Huntsville, Alabama and yet never lost a syllable of her Southern accent despite living in Canada for decades. But for all her southernism, Aunt Charlotte never introduced us to grits. That happy event took place in the Hamptons and only quite recently. I am tempted to say grits were the glue of a New
Center this dish on your dining table and stand back. Chinese New Year is upon us. This Sunday, February 10th is the start of the Year of the Snake. Despite all the negative connotations of snakes and snake-like behavior, according to Chinese Horoscopes the year 2013 symbolizes action, energy, leadership and vitality. This year, the snake is obligated to do its best

Sara Jenkins as photographed byNew York Magazine There’s almost no end to what people are putting on pasta these days. The most recent issue of Bon Appetit has 7 entirely new takes on pasta sauces and a couple of pastas that are new to me: Ditalini, a tubular pasta that translates to “little fingers” and Fiorentini, named for Florence, a spiral shaped paste as

Julia Child with her "Coq" Cold winter nights are made for eating Coq au Vin. And on a cold winter afternoon, the aroma of this great French classic cooking fills the kitchen with comfort. A “Coq” is French for rooster and there lies the rub. In France, roosters were kept as long as they were good breeders. They lived for several years before they were slaug

The Tastee Inn in Sioux City, Iowawhere you can get a Sloppy Joe orLoose Meat Sandwich for $2.00 The Sloppy Joe is hardly anyone’s idea of gourmet food. This may lie in the fact that making one requires virtually no culinary skills of any kind. The original Sloppy Joe recipe calls for ground beef and celery to be cooked up with a ketchup sauce and then served on
The book "Throwdown"has over 100 recipes--but only 33 of them are Bobby's Bobby Flay’s “Throwdown” has been around for 9 seasons on Food Network TV. In case you missed any of the over 100 episodes, they’re rerun on the Cooking Channel often enough to clog your DVR. The popularity of the show has as much to do with its affable host, as it has to do with his subject matter.

There’s something rewarding about having the time to make a really exceptional breakfast. Hopefully, the rush of the last few days before Christmas will yield way to a day off, a time to admire your gifts and sit back and enjoy life. And to enjoy this recipe for a breakfast dish which I found in Elle Décor, of all places, last year. It will take you a good half hour to make but it’s n
The incomparable Joanne Chang Christmas Baking is as much a part of the holiday as decorating the tree or singing songs of Christmas. And if you have children, it's great fun to get them into the kitchen and bake a few cookies. This year, the press has been full of stories of the demise of the Twinkie and the loss of Ho Hos. To be honest, I was never a fan of either of these br

In the roasting pan, a one dish wonder! The bones for this recipe came from a famous English cook and television personality who shall remain nameless. It’s not that I don’t devour the prose in the cookbooks the chef’s written. It’s beautiful and seductive. But when it comes to the recipes I’ve tried, I am sure the chef in question would request anonymity. In
