read moreCooking with Flavor Bombs by Giovannina Bellino
I'm intrigued by the idea behind Giovannina Bellino's Cooking with Flavor Bombs. Ever seen the little frozen cubes of garlic at the grocery store? Or made a compound butter? This... takes those concepts a step further. The official issue Flavor Bombs are available...
read moreThe Big Book of Paleo Slow Cooking by Natalie Perry
I love it when I'm pleasantly surprised by a cookbook. And I always feel a little guilty for having doubted the author. So let me begin this post by extending my apologies to Natalie Perry because I got a little judgy before I got very far into The Big Book of Paleo...
read moreInstant Pot® Electric Pressure Cooker Cookbook (An Authorized Instant Pot® Cookbook) by Sara Quessenberry & Kate Merker
I heart my Instant Pot. And as much as I heart it, I could really do better about learning how to use some of the features beyond pressure cooking, and making rice. Steaming, sautéing, canning, slow cooking, making yogurt. I have done none of these things with my...

Culinary voyeurism. If that is what Andy Ricker is selling, I'm buying it. But let's back up a bit. My first experience with Thai food was in my twenties. I was in a gift shop specializing in salsa and, on impulse, bought a green chile salsa called Thai Jungle Salsa....
read moreSloshies by Jerry Nevins
Sloshies! HA! I have to say, I was really quite excited when I was approved to receive an advance copy of Sloshies by Jerry Nevins. I have a family reunion coming up in July and what better time to serve up boozy frozen cocktails than the middle of the summer heat? My...

read moreImpatient Foodie by Elettra Wiedemann
I've been hearing buzz about this cookbook, Impatient Foodie by Elettra Wiedemann, for some time now. Not having been a follower of her blog, I was intrigued. Short on time? Check. Want delicious food? Check. And... bonus points for bridging "the gap between the...
read moreReady or Not! by Michelle Tam & Henry Fong
I've been following Nom Nom Paleo, off and on, for a few years. I was excited when I heard the blog's newest cookbook, Ready or Not!, was to be released on August 1st of this year. Michelle Tam's blog is a staple in the Paleo community and I don't think it is a...
read moreRecipe: A Riff on The Glass Onion’s Pimento Cheese
One unfortunate aspect of moving back to the Midwest from Florida was the lack of Duke's Mayo. I love the stuff. Don't get me wrong. I'm not an addict. (I can quit anytime I want to!) I just prefer it to other commercial mayos. Hellman's? Nope. Kraft? Huh-uh. Miracle...
