		<description><![CDATA[In the July/August issue of the Food Network Magazine, I saw this recipe &#8212; or I guess it is just an idea &#8212; for serving puppy dogs. My child likes hot dogs, but more than that she loves the white buns, and serving mini-hot dogs on small rolls might be a better size for kids. It&#8217;s [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In the October Bon Appetit, the BA Foodist talked about making popcorn the old-fashioned way on the stove. That got me to thinking how a generation of kids these days have been raised on microwave popcorn where the magic of popping is contained in some bag tucked away in a microwave. Though microwave popcorn is [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The last issue of Gourmet had some advice about which potatoes to use for mashing. I can never remember which ones are best or the advantages of each variety, so this article was definitely a helpful reminder to me. In the end, it essentially depends upon your taste though.
If you like lumpier potatoes or want [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Earlier I posted on my initial success of making butter, and since it was a little too easy, I decided to bump up the standard a bit in order for me to cross it off my ten cooking goals for 2010. Instead of just making butter, I decided to make my own bread too and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Now that it is winter up north, I bought some grapeseed oil for its lower smoke point during cooking. When a pan starts to smoke in the winter in Minnesota, opening a window is a cold option to air things out.
The smoke point is when the oil fat starts to break down and forms a [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The other day I was at the grocery store and avocados were on sale. After picking out five for $5, a lady asked me how to tell if they are good or not. I told her that unfortunately most of them were too ripe. They were squishy to the touch, and not worth buying.
So how [...]]]></description>

But now as French black Périgord truffle season is upon [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Yesterday I purchased off of eBay the vintage wooden butter mold pictured to the right. One of my cooking goals for 2010 is to learn how to make my own butter. I know it isn&#8217;t that difficult, so I held myself to a higher standard of making butter for a special occasion. And even that [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Recently a question was posed to me about which bread making machine was best, and frankly I didn&#8217;t know. While living abroad I learned how to make a simple bread dough from a Jamie Oliver recipe and have used that recipe ever since. I have never used a KitchenAid mixer or any other machine for [...]]]></description>

Basically, the last time I felt that the microwave step of heating the cheese to get it all [...]]]></description>
