Everyone needs a giant plastic Cambro tub in their life
　　When I started regularly baking sourdough bread last year, I realized just how messy a hobby bread-making can be. Because a sourdough starter needs to be fed and maintained each day, flour flew and dough smeared constantly around my kitchen. Failure to immerse a dough-covered utensil in water less than...

Your fancy coffee beans deserve a burr grinder
　　2019 is already my Year Of Coffee. I started January off by upping my pour-over game (finally), and followed that up with some new coffee equipment in February. Most importantly, I am the proud new owner of a burr grinder, a coffee accessory I’d put off buying because of its...

Chocolat celebrates the joy of small indulgences
　　When I was a kid, Ash Wednesday always involved a long list of give-ups that I would try to hang on to for 40 whole days (no candy, no nail-biting). I carried this habit into adulthood (no smoking, no alcohol, no sugar, no swearing), even though I have long ago...

Harriet The Spy inspired my lifelong love of tomato sandwiches
　　Like many young girls who dreamed of growing up to be a writer, Louise Fitzhugh’s Harriet The Spy was my favorite book as a kid. Honestly, some days I still pinch myself that this is what I get to do for a living, after all this time; it’s all I...

This app solved our group’s bill-splitting headaches
　　This past weekend, I traveled to Las Vegas to meet up with a group of six friends who live all across the company. It was a girls-only weekend full of unlimited buffets, inadvisably large daiquiris, plus a Céline Dion show. (Don’t judge; Celine is a legend.) Because we are all...

We tried the Queer Eye tomato juice-lemonade thing
　　The third season of Queer Eye is, unsurprisingly, a funny, warm, weepy delight. Much could be said about the wonderful things that happen therein, from the Jones sisters bottling their sauce (sniff) to the resilient spirit of a grieving single dad (sniff sniff), and on, and on, and on. But...

Mark Bittman’s new cookbook actually understands how people choose recipes
　　You’d think Mark Bittman would have already written everything he had to write on cooking. Prior to last month’s release of Dinner For Everyone: 100 Iconic Dishes Made 3 Easy Ways—Easy, Vegan, Or Perfect For Company, he’d published almost two dozen books, including smash hit How To Cook Everything, which...

In praise of Edna Lewis' In Pursuit of Flavor, an essential American cookbook
　　Paul Fehribach is the chef/owner of Chicago’s Big Jones, and a member of the Board of Trustees for the Edna Lewis Foundation, an organization founded to preserve African-American food culture. 　　In the summer of 2008, I found myself in the deepest funk of my relatively young life. My first restaurant,...

Peanut salsa. Yes, peanut salsa!
　　Recently, we had neighbors over for a potluck and one friend brought chips and salsa. That’s not too surprising. But it was the kind of salsa my friend brought. It had this strange, faintly familiar taste I couldn’t place at first, yet it was so delicious I couldn’t move far...

Weisswurst is the best sausage you’re not grilling
　　My family grilled hot dogs and bratwurst growing up, but it was the weisswurst I most looked forward to. Literally “white sausage,” weisswurst are made from veal and pork, finely ground to a smooth, creamy texture. They’re remarkably mild but not unflavorful, as many butcher shops’ versions are seasoned with...

The 2 keys to super fluffy pancakes
　　Try as I might, I could never get my pancakes to puff up the way diner pancakes do. The pancakes I cook on the weekends were still tasty, of course, but they lacked the poof, the panache. What’s the secret? What does IHOP know that I don’t? 　　Turns out, there...

Salad pro-tip: Throw a spoonful of jam in your dressing
　　Working from home, I’m freed from office desk-lunch tethers. I can reheat leftovers no matter how pungent; I can eat cereal three days in a row; I can make a meal of half pancakes and half mac-and-cheese and no one’s there to judge. But on spring and summer days when...

’Nduja on pizza? Yes, ’nduja on pizza!
　　Recently during our weekly Takeout Draft, the topic centered on pizza toppings. I had the foresight and pie-topping acumen to choose ’nduja—in the third round, no less! 　　This elicited a reaction from our beloved Takeout commentariat, which to my relief, was positive. Some thought this was an inspired choice, a...
