Justin Wilson, a Louisiana chef whose name might be familiar to your mother, used to make his roux by putting a cup of flour in the oven without any oil and roasting it until it browned. He cooked on PBS in the 1980's and 1990's. I think the flour roasted for about 1/2 hour - possibly a bit more. I’ve seen…

“...On the other hand, British Airways is only shooting to power 10% of its flights with SAF by 2030, which seems miniscule...”

Brunch is a declaration that nothing of value will happen that day. It’s ok once in a while. Waiting in line for eggs doesn’t make sense. That’s for people who want to be seen.

Fedoras, indeed, are cool.

“I would absolutely break up with someone who did not drink.” really says more about you than the non-drinker. There are more than 100 ways to leave your lover, but “over alcohol” shouldn’t be one. The person may be taking a medication that prohibits the use of alcohol, or simply doesn’t enjoy the sensation of…

He can’t even start off his campaign without some sort of fucking twist - using his in-law’s address although he’s a Jersey resident.  It’s not life-altering, but once it would be nice to see someone honestly say where he’s from and what he wants to do. When you have compromises before you even start out, it rarely…

I do.  I add a top layer of sour cream with a little sugar and vanilla in it, so it looks like icing. Bake that about 20 minutes after the bottom of the cake is mostly set. It also hides any cracks in the cheesecake.

Nice start, using your in-laws’ address rather than the place where you actually live.  How many other accommodations will Oz need? Can’t any of these people be honest for just a little while?

Strange header photo - raw green beans, raw cranberries, sage and rosemary leaves, dubious dressing...

“...and due to their nasty potential health effects.”

Some people use brown butter as part of a salad dressing.  It’s delicious.

I like to use egg nog in my pumpkin pie. Lotsa nutmeg, plenty of sugar.  I add a couple of eggs because I want the custard to be a bit on the firm side.

Campari, huh? I’ve used vermouth but will instead try campari with citrus. Here at Tarantula Arms, we use cranberry sauce as a side with pork or liver during the non-holiday year.

By criticizing the people who criticize Sinema’s unusual outfits, Susan Collins pretends to take a stand for womanhood. It ain’t working.

See also: oysters, pecans, various firm fruits like pears & apples, mandarin oranges, bacon, rosemary, 5-spice, garlic, lemon-pepper, cranberry sauce (makes a dark slightly sweet dressing), wine, cognac, ginger, etc.

This discussion is about people working in restaurants, but those of us who have worked in hospitals, hotels, public service, customer service, etc., are grateful for being able to get a meal because we were too tied up at work to cook.

The way is mouth draws up he looks like it’s a permanent sneer or the post-status of a small stroke.  I’d go with the permanent sneer.

Killing.  Killing two people and wounding a third.

I think you should take a trip with prospective partner before that person becomes your partner. Traveling shows peoples’ traits and if someone is not adaptable to change, it will show up on a vacation. If you miss a train, does that person come apart at the seams or is it a thing to cope with using patience and…
