Martha Stewart's Great Food Fast and the light version of that cookbook both have sections about basic cooking techniques are really useful.

If you like hash browns, I recommend the recipe in the book Make the Bread, Buy the Butter. Very simple, no onion, but holy hell they are delicious.

@LJo1:disqus that's not a bad idea. I live in a small metro that happens to be reasonably close (about an hour) from a large metro. It would be a rare thing, but doable. Thanks!

@Scrawler2:disqus how do you cook tempeh? I tried cooking it for the first time last night and was pretty disappointed in how it turned out, especially as I've had tempeh before that was really good.

@Scrawler2:disqus you go right on ahead and be judgmental. Picky eaters should feel shame.

You had me at pork chop. And green onions. And brie.

Have you ever had fairy eggplants? Not to sound all girly-like, but they are ridiculously cute and they make damn good eggplant fries.
