The Food Lab A New York Times Bestseller Winner of the James Beard Award for General Cooking Winner of the IACP Cookbook of the Year Award "The one book you must have, no matter what you’re planning to cook or where your skill level falls."—New York Times Book Review Ever wondered how to pan-fry a steak with a charred crust and an interior that's perfectly medium-rare from edge to edge when you cut into it? How to make homemade mac 'n' cheese that is as satisfyingly gooey and velvety-smooth as the blue box stuff, but far tastier? How to roast a succulent, moist turkey (forget about brining!)—and use a foolproof method that works every time? As Serious Eats's culinary nerd-in-residence, J. Kenji López-Alt has pondered all these questions and more. In The Food Lab, Kenji focuses on the science behind beloved American dishes, delving into the interactions between heat, energy, and molecules that create great food. Kenji shows that often, conventional methods don’t work that well, and home cooks can achieve far better results using new—but simple—techniques. In hundreds of easy-to-make recipes with over 1,000 full-color images, you will find out how to make foolproof Hollandaise sauce in just two minutes, how to transform one simple tomato sauce into a half dozen dishes, how to make the crispiest, creamiest potato casserole ever conceived, and much more. https://lnkd.in/gQNEEqsd

🍞 Join Common Grain Alliance for a Baker Meet-up to share and learn how to use local grains in baking! 🍞 Whether it's the earthy sweetness of freshly milled whole wheat flour or the subtle nuttiness of locally grown oats, baking with local grains brings a sense of terroir to loaves, muffins, and pastries. By sourcing grains grown nearby, we not only support local farmers and reduce our carbon footprint but also discover a depth of flavor and character that cannot be replicated with mass-produced ingredients. https://lnkd.in/ep3WhFQX

Probably the most interesting video on boiled potatoes you'll see today. What does an Irish Lumper potato taste like? Well, a normal potato - albeit with a bit coarser skin, it seems. Regardless, it's interesting to consider a time when people at 12-14 lbs. of Lumpers every day, and why the variety was alleged to have a less-than-stellar culinary reputation. It's been an interesting experiment, and neat opportunity to taste-test a crop of such historical significance. Preview image – The Lumper (right) with a couple modern varieties for comparison.

🍝✨ Happy World Pasta Day! ✨🍝 Today we celebrate one of the symbols of Italian cuisine: pasta! But behind every perfect pasta dish lies a supply chain that begins with the best practices for grain storage. 🌾 The quality of pasta is closely linked to the optimal management of raw materials. Proper grain storage, which involves controlling temperature, humidity, and ventilation, is essential to prevent degradation and ensure that the grain retains its organoleptic properties. The use of modern and well-maintained facilities further optimizes these processes. Every phase, from harvesting to storage, is crucial for obtaining a final product that delights the palate and honors culinary traditions. Choosing quality pasta also means supporting farmers and producers who work with passion and dedication. Now more than ever, it is important to recognize the value of every single step in the food supply chain. Let’s celebrate pasta together, a symbol of goodness and tradition! 🍽️❤️ #WorldPastaDay #Quality #FoodSupplyChain #Storage #ModernFacilities #CulinaryTradition #EatWell #mulmix #silos #engineering #production #assembling #aftersales

PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT. Short = Good I know you want "great," but if you can't reach "good," forget it. 🍅 So here's how: Why tomato? Stage 1: 𝗢𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗸 🍥 Ah, the tomato—Solanum lycopersicum, if you will. Often dismissed as a mere garnish or relegated to the role of salad filler, the tomato, represents one of the most remarkable achievements in both botanical and culinary evolution. It may seem an innocuous fruit BUT THE TRUTH? Its power and influence should not be underestimated. Stage 2: 𝗧𝘂𝗿𝗻 𝗼𝗻 𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗯𝗮𝗹 𝘄𝗲𝗲𝗱𝘄𝗵𝗮𝗰𝗸𝗲𝗿 🔪 The tomato, often seen as just a garnish or salad ingredient, is one of the most impressive fruits in the botanical kingdom. Step 3: 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝘁𝗿𝘆𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗼 𝘀𝗮𝘆? 𝗞𝗲𝗲𝗽 𝗶𝘁 𝘀𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗲 𝗮𝗳. 👽 Tomato = Tasty + Good if lazy + Help you live long Put in mouth ???? Profit. A tomato’s already perfect. Writing? Keep cutting until it makes sense. Often, short = clearer = better. So shorter is better. Despite what people say. PS. This post was written around lunchtime. I think I’ll go make a salad now. Have a nice day 🤠
