Lunch Lessons: Changing the Way We Feed Our Children
Not a cookbook, Lunch Lessons is more of a guidebook that clarifies which foods are truly hazardous to children like trans-fats and processed foods, and offers substitutions and positive options that are surprisingly simple. There are some recipes as well as sections filled with tips on helping to transform school lunch programs and lists of resources with more information.

As big as a coffee tabletop itself, my copy of the Bouchon cookbook by Thomas Keller never makes its way to my kitchen, but the book is stunning. I love sitting on my couch on a lazy Sunday afternoon flipping through its pages and just dreaming of how delicious the food is. One day, I may actually attempt something in the book, but I just don't want to mess up the beautiful pages in the kitchen.

I'm not the sort of Top Chef fanatic that would get a lot of use out of the show-specific info here, like "chef'testant" bios and silly asides. But that adds levity to dishes that I might otherwise be intimidated to try on my own, like the seafood-cauliflower-pepper salad, my favorite thing I've made from the book so far. Contemporary gastronomy with the bleeding edge shaved off!

I haven't had a bad recipe in here yet. I also like that the ingredients in these recipes are fairly common, so I don't have to go to specialty grocery stores to find them. If they aren't common, they tell you what to substitute for it.

Japan's Global knives have created quite a stir in the culinary world, challenging the old orthodoxy that a knife blade needs to be both heavy and thick, with a bolster for proper balance. In contrast, Global blades are ground and hand-sharpened to a long point, not a bevel, creating a wickedly-sharp straight edge that's actually visible to the naked eye.

The scale displays in pounds, ounces, or grams and it's very easy to adjust the unit of measure. The tare function is perfect for controlling portion size. Moreover, the scale is indispensable for achieving the exact measurements required for successful baking. When I bought the scale, I thought I'd use it only occasionally, but in fact I use it nearly every day. Not only is it useful, it's kind of fun!
