Taste Test: Milks Not From a Cow

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you for doing the work for me. I agree Silk is the best of the soys... I haven't tried many of the others with great success.

My son has allergies to cow's milk and goat is a great sub. in cooked foods. It tastes light in a white sauce or mashed potatoes instead of cow's milk or cream. And is fantastic in a sheep & goat's milk cheese Mac&Cheese.

Cukes and Gochujang: Perfect Summer Snack

mmm, cukes aren't ripe here yet...I'll have to keep waiting. Maybe that will give me time to locate some good gochujang. I love gochujang, but what is the best brand? is there a recipe to make it yourself? I find that most store bought brands have all kinds of rubbish in them. Is that the way it is in Korea too? just wondering...

Cook the Book: '660 Curries' by Raghavan Iyer

My first encounter, sadly to say, wasn't until I was an adult. When I moved to South Africa I got to try a samosa at a party. I loved it immediately, and sought out to recreate those fantastic flavors. Now, back in the states, I have Indian friends who have taught me a great deal about their food and culture. I LOVE to eat Indian food and would love a new cookbook!

The Organic Milk Business Has Gone Bad: Are You Buying Less Organic Milk?

Thanks for reporting this. Our organic milk consumption as decreased due to allergies to casein, but half of the family still consumes milk & butter. I buy Organic Valley almost exclusively, the Safeway brand (and many others) do not have the same ethics in my opinion. There are so many loop holes in the system as to what substitutions can be made if organic feed becomes to expensive. Besides I like to support the littler guy.

For our family it is more responsible and better for us to purchase organic. I will continue to do so. My husband always says "you can pay for better food now or the doctor later."

Cook the Book: 'On the Line'

it's a toss up between sushi and on the BBQ. Right now at the tail end of winter I will have to go with the BBQ since I so long for the warm days of summer right now. With Lent starting coinciding with Halibut season my mind has been flipping through recipes trying to decide what to make Friday. I think I'm going for the halibut with asparagus from this book :) Thanks!

I hope to be more organized in the kitchen, try meal planning (I have never succeeded before) hoping to save a little dough by knowing what to buy on shopping trips. Reduce impulse buys. Oh boy, this WILL be a challenge!

Jeeves, and the Art of Curing the Hangover

just the thought is enough to keep me from overindulgence. (i have a good memory)

I am going to try some of these remedies on my poor unsuspecting husband next time he feels the need to imbibe. He will think that I am up to something since I am not the sympathetic type ;-) I am better at receiving than giving in that dept.

oh, so many things.... I guess foolproof rice would have been the first from my earlier days. I know it sounds silly, but I used to make it over cooked or undercooked. Thanks to Mark for fixing that for me.
