Before we moved this past June, I was beginning to think the idea of neighbors who came bearing welcome casseroles when you moved in and popped by to borrow cups of sugar was a fiction.
It’s not like we’ve ever had any true horror stories or anything pilfered from us (although I never did get my office gift basket last Christmas, just sayin’) but for the most part, our former neighbors have just been distantly polite, a little gruff, or mysteriously absent. And then we moved to this building! It’s like a weird and wonderful little haven of neighborliness. In the summer we came home to neighbors sitting on the front stoop with their kids; on Halloween the owners put out baskets of candy. We have brunches and baby showers, read-a-thon sponsor sign-up sheets and holiday decorations (right now, an impressively life-size sled).
Predictably, one of the best things about actually knowing my neighbors is having an outlet for all the baked goods I turn out of my kitchen. Ingredients Instructions. Dining Without Borders | All about good food and restaurants. Impatient Foodie | Cookbook Week - Day 1. I swear every year that I am going to stop with the cookbooks.
But honestly I can’t help it. In fact, on my desk right now is a stack of cookbooks that is threatening to topple over, right on top of my shiny new Macbook Air. Which normally I would be horrified at the prospect, but I love my cookbooks and my Macbook Air is under warranty right? Though I guess explaining to the genius bar guy that a mountain of books fell on the computer would be a little awkward. That said, instead of doing my usual MASSIVE cookbook roundup like I’ve done in the past, I’m going to do something a little different. Of course, I’m not one to play favorites with cookbooks, but David Lebovitz has always been a long time favorite cookbook author (and blogger) of mine, even before I started this blog.
Journeying beyond the French kitchen to Arabic cuisine, Nadia Zerouali and Merijn Tol’s Under the Shade of Olive Trees is a whimsical cookbook with a lighthearted design that belies the strength of its content. Tokyo through the drinking glass. You’re Eating Fake Tortillas, and Diana Kennedy Is Pissed About It. “Why is it that we have allowed people who are totally incompetent in food to design our food?” Diana Kennedy was saying, her gray and white hair lifting lightly in the breeze. “Our food doesn’t have the flavor it used to have. I remember the chile poblanos, full of flavor, thin-fleshed, very dark green, and that big. Now ¡olvidalo!” “Forget it,” she said. A living legend in food, Kennedy started exploring the markets of Mexico’s towns and villages more than fifty years ago, meeting cooks and gathering plants and recipes with the precision of a ethnobotanist. Sitting at Kennedy’s outdoor dining table with a tiny glass of mezcal before me, I struggled to imagine the flavor of the chile poblanos back then because fifty years ago, Mexico and the planet were simply different places than they are now.
There was no transgenic corn in Mexico fifty years ago, and definitely none imported from the United States—as there is today—not in the land where science has agreed that corn was born. Share.

It all culminated with this amazing potato lasagna that tastes like a pierogi with every bite. Each layer of noodle gave way to a thick, creamy, cheesy cloud of potato deliciousness.

Mom and my brother, George, in Naples My mom, Angela, passed away in 1985. She was from Sicily and I was just really beginning to get into cooking when she died. A short time ago, I was flipping through an old Italian cookbook of hers and saw this recipe, written by her, in the back of the book: I like vegetarian dishes a lot and so I thought I would give it a try.
The amount of ricotta the recipe calls for seemed like a lot, so I scaled it back. It's really a delicious "lasagna" and it was great the next day, too. Thanks, Mom!

Aunque con un poco de retraso, no he querido dejar de participar con una receta de tradición familiar. El escabeche es un fondo de cocción o forma de conservación de los alimentos a base de vinagre, especias y sal. Lo descubrimos de manos de los sarracenos, aprovechando de nuestras ricas tierras el vino que se convertía fácilmente en vinagre.
Su progresivo refinamiento y aplicación, fue desplazando progresivamente a la salazón, un método de conservación que pedía demasiado tiempo en preparación y uso. Nuestro recetario no hace distinciones entre carnes, pescados, mariscos y verduras a la hora de aplicar este fondo de conservación, aunque en Cataluña los más típicos son los de pescado azul y las sardinas, los boquerones, la caballa, el bacalao y el atún, los más recomendados para escabechar. Os dejo ingredientes y preparación para 4 personas. .ingredientes. 4 verats (caballa) sin cabeza ni tripas sal.
YO, COCINERA?? El Comidista. Por: Mikel López Iturriaga Cuando uno va a la compra, lo normal es que ande pensando en cómo han subido las patatas o qué interesante es el carnicero. No considero natural, al menos en las personas intelectualmente justitas como yo, reflexionar sobre profundidades, por lo que me pregunto qué le pasaría a mi encéfalo el otro día para que empezara a cavilar sobre la libertad mientras ejercía mi derecho a elegir entre lechuga romana y hoja de roble.

I’m a writer and cook originally from Southern California, currently residing in one of the most diverse areas on the planet: Queens, New York City. I started this blog in 2009 as a way to document my move to Mexico City. The blog ended up documenting my growing passion for interior Mexican cuisine and Mexican foodways. Even though I live in New York, I visit Mexico often, usually to check in on my business Eat Mexico, which offers street food and market tours in Mexico City and Puebla. Generally my blog posts focus on Mexican food and travel, with occasional forays into the diverse food cultures in Queens.
