In this week's Observer restaurant review a good meal at the Hand & Flowers in Marlow was ruined by a man who delighted in domestic abuse and casual racism, and who regaled the room with a series of sad, shouty remarks.

Two delicious Sabrett-style, natural casing hotdogs with their special chilli, which is more like a spicy onion relish really. I like it with a bit of mustard and wash it down with a Lime Rickey (Lime soda with grenadine-not the same as a Shirley Temple; much better). Boulevard drinks is, without a doubt, the best hotdog restaurant in Jersey City.

Crab Crazy!
—
This is a great place to eat if you are in the Douglassville, PA area. The Main Event at this place is the "Chesapeake Pretzel." That's a hollowed out soft pretzel, stuffed with crab salad, and topped with cheese before heated in the oven. To wash it down Donnie and I had a chili dog and a Texas Tommy (dog with bacon and cheese). The whole meal ...

This China Sea offers great lunch portions for under $5. Sweet & Sour Chicken was all white meat with a nice crispy batter. The hot oil on the table is always good too.

OK. I know I didn't answer the question that was asked. I was just having conversation. I think that any good recipe for any good dinner roll will work just fine. Make up a dough, ball it up into the size rolls you want, spray/mist some water over the tops a couple tines while baking, cut them when they're cool. Viola, you should have what you ...

Let's say that I have a "special" culture, from Egypt or something, purchased from Sourdo.com. For months I feed it with King Arthur AP flour. Can someone who really knows their stuff please explain to me how my culture does not eventually become dominated by the yeast that is all over the King Arthur flour? Yeast don't kill other yeast, do they?

A bit of a breather to ease the tention created by my obsessive baguette journey. :p I was browsing through internet leisurely yesterday, searching for some information about Eric Kayser for Andy (ananda), and totally by accident, I came across a blog entry which mentioned…..

It happens. You’ve been hitting the farmers markets and you’ve got left over bits filling up your fridge and you really don’t want to let them go to waste. This is where I found myself this week end.

Easy and fast, this Tuna recipe from early 17th century
—
The recipe is simple: tuna slices baked with a mustard-breadcrumb crust and served with orange sauce and coriander seeds. Its origin is special: a cookbook from a Walloon cook, published in 1604. He was quite original, and the recipes I've prepared from this book are all good. Except for the roasted butter ... Enjoy!

Hello, Has anyone tried to make a corn-flour mash? I have attempted it twice at different hydrations (250% and 350%) at 150-165F, and each time it did not turn sweet, even after 4-5 hrs. Maybe a little bit, but not much. My miller does a good job at creating corn flour, but the end mash result, both times, were a bit gritty and not very sweet. ...
