Top Chef: The Quickfire Cookbook: $29.95 : Chronicle Books
1 recommendation
"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!"
IASA Anchovy Juice
1 recommendation
"I love to cook and bake from scratch. No recipes here, just free form cooking. Naturally I was excited when I found this anchovy juice and imagined the culinary possibilities. This will take me pasta to a whole other level. Here's the description: Anchovy juice (colatura) is one of the most treasured ingredients in Campania. It is rich with the flavors of the sea and dates back to ancient Rome. T..."
Saag
1 recommendation
"A creamy and savory Indian curry dish made of spinach and mustard leaves. Along with tandoori chicken, this is one of my favorites when I go to eat Indian food. There's different kinds of saag to choose from: saag paneer (with cheese cubes), lamb saag (delicious) and palak aloo saag (with potatoes)."
Bibim Naeng Myun - Korean Cold Spicy Buckwheat Noodles

"This is my all time #1 favorite Korean dish. It combines three of my favorite things: spicy, noodles and sauce. This is the ideal summer dish and I highly recommend it. Usually its served in a metal bowl, as seen in the picture, with sliced cucumber or green apple and few ice cubes dropped in to keep it cool."
Whisky Stones by Teroforma
14 recommendations
"The new reality to whisky on the rocks. Although I did first see these on Cool Material.com, I still thought they needed more presence. Made from locally-quarried soapstone in Perkinsville, VT. After storing in freezer for a minimum of 4 hours, add 3 stones to a dram of single malt to take the edge off a bit without diluting. Rinse after use and store in the freezer for next time. NOTE: ..."
Tommy Gunns American Barbeque - Philadelphia, PA - Philly BBQ
1 recommendation
"Barbeque is a distinctly American cuisine and Tommy Gunns features classics from around the country. The amazing thing about barbeque is that no two regions are the same. In North Carolina you'll find tender smoked pork infused with a pepper vinegar sauce. Drive 20 minutes across the border to south Carolina and you'll get tender smoked pork with a mustard based sauce. They're both real barbeque, ..."
The Pleasures of Slow Food: Celebrating Authentic Traditions, Flavors, and Recipes $24.95 : Chronicle Books

"Slow food has less to do with time than with process, place, and community. It stands in opposition to fast food to the extent that its core belief is that locally grown and carefully harvested foods should be prepared and enjoyed among friends, and with a maximum attention to season and terroir. Susie Cushner's monumental, detailed photographs and recipes from major adherents the world over add u..."

Angelique Apron | Haute Hostess Aprons
5 recommendations
"She wouldn't dare risk getting a drop of that Hollandaise sauce on her DvF wrap dress (she wouldn't dare eat that fat- and calorie-laden stuff either), so she's got to put on an apron. The Angelique by Haute Hostess Aprons is almost as cute as a dress itself. Pink is our favorite, but the Angelique comes in a number of colors to match her outfit. Naturally."

The Big Book of Thai Curries
2 recommendations
"This is the latest book out by one of my favorite Thai food authors, Vatcharin (Vatch for short). It is interesting to compare all the different type of Thai curry pastes and explore the multitude of recipes that one can use various types of curry pastes in. This could be most useful if you have a packet of red curry paste that you want to use up! Nice photos as true with many of Vatch's books but..."

Reynolds Slow Cooker Liners
1 recommendation
"The greatest thing since sliced bread. I stumbled upon these slow cooker liners the other day while grocery shopping and decided to give them a try. As some of you may know I recently moved from America’s Heartland back to my home state. We found a house that we loved and immediately signed the lease on it. The only draw back to this house is that it has NO DISHWASHER! Horrible I know. I hate wash..."
