As a specialty coffee enthusiast, I’m always visiting different local roasteries. There’s something special about this ritual: independent roasters offer amazing coffee experiences and an incredible variety of beans you symple won’t find elsewhere. Last week, I experienced one of those great moments, and bought these great beans from Garza Coffee: Pink Bourbon IPA. This coffee is co-fermented with IPA hops and IPA yeast, in a very special method: the hops and yeast are added to the beans in a…

I always thought that food in advertisements are typically not the actual food, and may in fact be inedible. The objective is to make the food look good in photographs and videos, not to make it taste good. That juicy and succulent and savory hamburger you see in the commercial is probably not fit to be eaten. There are professional photographers that know how all the tricks and techniques in creating attractive food in advertisements. And then, there is food created by AI. ~ Links: Uncanny and…

Several years ago, my friend and I were invited to the opening of Planta Queen in NoMad, and the dish that’s lived rent-free in my head ever since was a sweet corn ravioli in tom yum sauce with a chimichurri drizzle. It was one of those dishes that felt both completely new and oddly nostalgic, and the chimichurri had just the right kick of heat and brightness to balance the richness. After years of dreaming about that dish, I finally decided it was time to give it my own spin: Creamy Tom Yum…

got the moka pot my friend shared on his blog. it's really solid and is made out of stainless steel as opposed to aluminium, like most other moka pots. because it's made out of steel, coffee comes out at a slower pace making it easier to control and not get the bitter end that spatters everywhere. it's also easier to clean. i'm a fan of it so far.

Another fitba day oot. First visit of the season to Gayfield Park, Arbroath. So nevermind the result or the fact that the Pars had about 16 shots on target whilst Arbroath had 1 and yet we ended up with a miserable draw. Far better to discuss the pies. This is my favourite "pie" footballl ground. Three fine, top of the range, hot pies are on offer. The Steak pie, the Steak and Black pie (black being black pudding) and the veritable king of off-kilter, local pies, the Smokie pie. The Smokie pie…

Hello everyone and welcome to my weekly Meals of the Week Post. Normally on Sundays I like to share with you all the delicious recipes and meals that I have enjoyed over the past seven days. That's all of the main meals that I have eaten along with any recipes and menu suggestions.Because I live alone with just my two cats for company, the temptation can be really strong to want to eat from jars, cans, frozen ready meals or take aways. That's not how I really like to eat however. If at all…

(I mean the fruit) I know there are all kinds of amazing tropical fruits that I've never had an opportunity to try, but among all of the fruit I have had, I think dates are the most underrated. Incredibly sweet and just a little chewy, with a vaguely mollasses-like taste, they make a great ingredient in home-made sweets and healthy snacks, and by themselves (or with some crushed pecans), they make an amazing treat with tea. Just don't get the pitted kind, they dry out way too fast. Back to index

After 20 hours in the sous vides it is time for a final smoke and bark treatment to the pork shoulder.

If you spicy sauces and fermentation, you're going to love this fermented maple hot sauce recipe.

I dream about being the type of cook who wanders through a farmers market, gets inspired by whatever is in season, and runs home to make something simple and delicious without consulting a single recipe. The reality is that I am extremely recipe-bound. I shop with a detailed list, rarely impulse-buy, and often have meals planned weeks, sometimes months, in advance between recipe development and content planning. Ask me to freestyle a farmers market dinner and I immediately forget every…

Lower East Side institution Schmear & Sons unveiled a revolutionary new breakfast item today. Their new Anything Bagel is designed to disrupt the traditional seed hierarchy.For decades, the Everything Bagel reigned supreme with its predictable combination of poppy seeds, sesame seeds, garlic, onion, and coarse salt.

Our friends Annie and Ron hosted a little brunch this past weekend, and I knew I wanted to make a dessert starring some delicious late-summer fruit.

A slightly sweet dough is rolled out into a rectangle, then topped with neat rows of peaches, figs and plums. After a sprinkle of sugar and a few dots of butter, it bakes until the crust is golden brown and…
