Wine pairings to toast the legacy of Julia Child
Updated: Tue, May 15, 2012
Maybe it's in the way one cook browns meat, or another views dessert. Or it may be in the moments when a harried chef seeks perspective in the well-worn pages of "The Way to Cook." One thing's for certain, the late, great Julia Child remains a culinary lodestone in kitchens across America. "She was one of our... Read More
Julia Child, a legacy of teaching the joy of food
Updated: Mon, May 14, 2012
Massaging poultry, dropping food and utensils, and warbling her way through boeuf bourguignon and coq au vin, Julia Child left an indelible mark on American food.

20 fresh takes for dressing a stack of pancakes
Updated: Tue, May 1, 2012
As pancake toppings go, maple syrup is swell and certainly traditional, if not particularly inspired. But if you're going to go to the trouble of griddling up a stack of hot pancakes for Mom on Mother's Day — or for anyone on any day, for that matter — consider going the extra step and whipping up a more...

Tart, fresh rhubarb tastes like spring
Published: Mon, Apr 16, 2012
Think of a long, bleak, 19th-century New England winter, when food was running low and a typical meal might be salt pork, milk gravy and, if you had "put by" enough in the fall, some pickles.
It's no wonder that, come early spring, New Englanders -- and others in northern climes -- greeted rhubarb with joy.... Read More

We are heading into the time of year when push comes to shove for family dinners.

Secretary serves as family treasure since 1855
Updated: Mon, Apr 2, 2012
Q: Seeing your "Antique or Junque" column in our local paper prompted me to send you the enclosed question and photo.
This is a photo of an antique secretary that has been in my family for generations. In 1855, one of my ancestors commissioned it to be made by a professional cabinetmaker from Chittenango, N.Y.... Read More
Wake up to Easter brunch
Published: Mon, Mar 26, 2012
Each holiday has its prime time. Christmas shines in the evening, when the tree is lit and family and friends are gathered to share eggnog and cocoa. Thanksgiving's draw is a midday feast. But Easter is all about the morning: sunrise services, egg hunts and the "awakening" feeling of spring. While it may be... Read More

Pimento cheese: it's a Southern thing
Published: Mon, Mar 12, 2012
If you are a Northerner, you know exactly what a "pimiento" is. It's that sweet red pepper stuffed into a green olive. And you spell it as the Spanish do, with two "i's."
If you are a Southerner, you know that "pimento" is a key ingredient in pimento cheese, a combination of pimento, cheese and mayonnaise... Read More
Good, better, best biscuits
Published: Mon, Feb 27, 2012
Many of us raised north of the Mason-Dixon Line have been wandering in a culinary landscape dotted with Biscuits From Hell. (Too dramatic? How about Biscuits From the North? Pretty much the same thing, isn't it?)

Cast your iron in the fire
Published: Mon, Feb 20, 2012
Is there any more evocative piece of American cookware than the cast-iron pan? We can almost see the colonial settler in New England, the cowboy on the range and the early 20th-century immigrant cooking over the hearth, campfire or coal-burning stove and ladling out the food (porridge! chili! goulash!) to a hungry...

We cannot tell a lie: this cake looks a lot like a pie
Published: Mon, Feb 13, 2012
Presidents Day is hardly a gastronomic festival. Aside from a nod to George Washington -- cherry pie, anyone? -- there's not really any great food associated with the Oval Office.
Sure, Ronald Reagan liked jelly beans and Bill Clinton hankered after fast food, but if you want to know what the presidents ate, you... Read More

Different routes to same path
Updated: Fri, Jan 20, 2012
FREDERICK, Md. — Bryan Voltaggio stands in his restaurant, Volt, arms folded. He doesn't break a smile, a frown or a sweat. It's the same modest, soft-spoken persona that became his trademark on Season 6 of Bravo's "Top Chef," which portrayed him in stark contrast to the mouthy arrogance of another contestant... Read More

In a world of ever-changing, lightning-fast technology and 24/7 communication, it can be hard to keep up. When it comes to the food world, the truly trendy cook from apps, watch food videos on their phones and bone up on "molecular gastronomy" via Twitter.
