thanks maggie for the link. i will definitely check it out. i am so glad i found a forum like this. i have a desire to start my own little cooking/food/wine gathering once a month but this is a great place to meet folks in the meantime.
thanks for the suggestion, deltadoc. i've got a cuisinart food processor, which i live by, but there are some things a really good blender is good for. :) happy cooking.
Okay, I am looking into purchasing a professional blender, at least a high quality machine and am interested in your suggestions. thanks. :chef:
phoebe - i've got about 45 pages to go, but i really enjoyed her book. very different perspective as opposed to bourdain's writing. i've also read "American pie" by pascale le draoulet - which was a fun read on a woman's...
thanks for the suggestions, phoebe. :)
What do you think are essential books for a culinary fool?!? Food writing/essays etc. - I am more interested int hese than cookbooks per say. :)
Check out, Eating My Words, by Mimi Sheraton. She used to write for the NY Times as a food critic and many other notable publications. She dedicates practically a whole chapter to this issue. Very interesting read.
Thanks for the suggestion. I will check it out!
So I am wrapping up reading Mimi Sheraton's memoir, Eating My Words. And I am curious if there any food critics/writers here and if they have suggestions for those possibly interested in starting a mini-career in this field?
your review only confirmed my NEED and DESIRE to go to The French Laundry. Anthony Bourdain gives a great review of this restaurant too in A Cook's Tour. better start saving my pennies.
