Short Stack editions
Actually I've seen them on the Bitter Southerner (I love that site) and am more tempted than ever having read your buttermilk cheese reviews...

Indian Food
Chowhound has selected Made in India as the Cookbook of the Month and so far just about every review has been a rave. I've made three recipes from the book (not reviewed as yet) and each was terrific.

Indian Food
How interesting! I really never thought about Indian food in that way. Yet it makes total sense--I love the juxtapositions of ingredients in Indian food. And I love the smells created when I cook Indian food. Starting from the toasting cumin seed…

I couldn't resist Made in India--especially since I had made and loved her Chicken Curry which was in the Times a while back. I also succumbed to Hot Bread Kitchen. My friends have Zahav and we've had some things from it which were wonde…

18,000 reviews!
I love reading the reviews too. I have often gotten great tips on how to make something and have been directed to recipes I might otherwise never have tried. I'm actually disappointed when I see that something has been reviewed and then find …

How do you start a cookbook club?
That does sound a little bloodthirsty for a vegan....I have two friends with whom I cook on occasion and it's great fun. Maybe we should try a little more cyber-club cooking.

Saveur Blog Awards, 2-15
Wow--most of these are new to me too. I did vote for Elizabeth Minchilli in Rome. Her blog is a real favorite of mine and I've learned some great cooking lessons from her--plus gotten some lovely glimpses of Italy.

2015 IACP nominees announced
I'm rooting for Sean Brock and David Lebovitz. Also I love Alice Medrich's new book (Flavor Flours) and have only skimmed the new Dorie Greenspan but it looks great. I find the "Bible" baking books a bit too precious. I was re…

QS, thanks for the link--that review is FABULOUS! How nice to start this early and very cold morning with a good giggle. I'll have to go back and read the Prune and Heritage reviews--two books on my wish list. I may have to add the dessert b…

It seems that Andrew has come to our rescue and decided to keep things going...a very happy circumstance.

Next challenge?
I think I'd rather cook from the Bittman Vegetarian book--rather more modern and creative I think...and not all that 'American"

Next challenge?
I own that book (Bittman/vegetarian) and, I'm ashamed to say, I've never cooked a thing out of it. It does appear to be the most owned.

I pre-ordered this book on the basis of a wonderful recipe of Ms. Nathan's which was the basis of a blog entry on the Wednesday Chef. I made the cake and absolutely loved it. When the book came, I found the version of the recipe (blueberries …
