... or wonderful world! Just discovered this site and excited to get involved. Love everything related to food; I've been baking since I was little and became a pastry chef, but I am still learning how to cook. I still get super excited by words like "searing" and "braising"; makes me sound grown up!

I bought one of these just for making osso buco. I found myself using it for a lot more than just that. I make tomato sauce in it, chili, any excuse I have to bust it out, I do. I absolutely...

One of my first internet knives. Great blade. I mean *great* but the handle was a bit weird. Right now it just sits at the bottom of my knife kit.

I've owned one of these for over 3 years now, using it daily. I've never had to sharpen (grind) it, just an occasional run along a fine steel, and it's held a wonderful edge for everyday prep....

Thanks for the warm welcome, Mezzaluna! The first memory I have of baking was as a little girl, when my mom would bake her signature cake and I'd stand next to her, "helping," which basically meant licking the batter off the spatula! You could say I was her clean-up crew.
My sister is one picky eater, and eats only "pretty" things so she definitely makes me push myself to go that extra step to make it look very palatable. I'm here to learn more about the cooking side, keep up with trends in the food world and connect with people as passionate about food as I am!
