This month it’s the biggest issue ever (apparently, although I swear that’s the case at least once a year!) and there’s certainly a fair bit of space given to the OFM’s editor, Nigel Slater, who has released a new book, Eating for England. While a few recipes, such as baked rice pudding with clotted cream […]

Fine Cooking is one of my favourite food magazines.  Not only does it contain gorgeous photos, it also has amazing recipes (anyone for Chocolate Espresso Pecan Pie?), product comparisons and recommendations on which kitchen tool is best (mortars and pestles are highlighted), cooking techniques (a how-to on hearty soups), and nutritional breakdowns of every recipe.  […]

Two words can perfectly describe Millionaire Rotisserie Chicken Salad from the August issue of Every Day with Rachael Ray: quick and easy. I try not to use those terms that often to describe Rachael Ray’s recipes, since most of them are pretty quick and easy, usually taking me no more than 45 minutes. However, with […]

At a recent bookstore shopping expedition, I happened on a great cookbook for parents.I’m always looking for meal ideas that are healthy, quick, and easy, and that are likely to actually get eaten. I found The Big Book of Recipes for Babies, Toddlers & Children, which is […]

Although I order from them semi-frequently, I have yet to make it to a Penzey’s store. No matter, it’s nearly as fun to open up a box of goodies from them when I place an online order. A year ago, I succumbed and started subscribing to their magazine, Penzey’s One. Every time I debate about […]
