Jacques Torres vs. Russell Stover: The VV Easter Bunny Battle
Over at the Village Voice, our favorite critic Robert Sietsema has put the chocolate Easter bunny to the test with a dual between the hollow, dark chocolate Jaques Torres Easter bunny ($9) and the classic, solid milk chocolate Russell Stover rendition ($3.89 at Duane Reade).
The winner? Jacques Torres, naturally. But, Sietsema wrote, it was just [...]
Christopher Columbus (This Is Not) India Pale Ale
It’s been some time since the brewing of my second batch of homebrew, an IPA, and it’s finally ready. An unscheduled trip down to Dogfish Head in Delaware delayed my dry-hopping, pushing my fermentation a few days longer before bottling, so my apologies on the wait — mainly sorry for myself that I had to [...]
The Ultimate Carrot Cake

Most of our friends are luckily extreme carrot cake people, to the point that [...]

Almondine: Best Croissants in Brooklyn
As a little kid, I relished the big 12-pack Costco croissants my mom would bring home, ridiculously buttery, a bit soggy, and toasted for a few minutes until warm. I still remember eating them for breakfast at my third grade birthday sleepover – slathered with even more butter and jam.
Since then, I suppose I [...]

Thankfully, homebrewers usually want to share their discoveries with whomever will listen, and get even more emphatic when they [...]
Early Bird Granola on Food Curated
I always knew that the secret to really good granola was a little bit of olive oil. Turns out, that’s what makes Early Bird Granola, a Brooklyn Flea regular, so damn good. Check out Liza de Guia’s Food Curated video on the granola biz below.

Butternut Squash Couscous
This recipe was an accidental creation inspired by a need for something delicious and healthy, when I knew I had a gooey St. Louis butter cake in the oven and a date with Brian to eat half of it in one sitting. So yeah, a healthy dinner was in order.
This was heavily adapted from a [...]
The DIY Kitchen: Notes on Ultra-Pasteurized Milk
After a whole bunch of cheese making this weekend, I thought that today’s DIY Kitchen post should detail some notes on the types of milk that are best for this whole process. For recipes on how to make fresh goat cheese or ricotta, check out the recipes page.
Ultra-Pasteurized Milk: Confusingly, this milk is also [...]
