** sauce tastes amazing. Almost like a warm red wine. Somehow.
There’s no wine in there.

Any good/recent cookbook recs? I've been tearing through Chicano Eats this summer and really enjoying it, have Alon Shaya's on deck but also looking for some variety.

these are my 2 favorites from the last year or 2...

Oh fuck yeah, literally just watched the Bourdain episode where he goes to Juhu last night. Didn't realize they had a cookbook out.

we have friends where the wife is always complaining about never being able to lose weight. she drinks every night. and last night her husband let on that every dinner that she makes is out of an ina garten recipe book. i'm not sure there is a recipe of hers where she doesn't use 20 sticks of butter.

Well, there IS a whole cup of olive oil in it.

guys, eating fat doesn't make you fat

drinking a bottle a wine every night and consuming 40 grams of saturated fat per meal may though

the wine yes, absolutely

the saturated fat, not directly. Probably clogs her arteries and makes her feel sluggish, and therefore not prone to exercise.

But eating fat adds a lot of calories that also make you fat so... yes directly.

I love a good Barefoot Contessa recipe, even have made a few Paula Deen ones before, but that's not every day cooking.

i'm strictly an america's test kitchen, cook's country, and milk street guy.

I’m a believer of the first two. Never heard of the third

milk street is a newer venture by chris kimball, who started the first two. you should check it out. they have some interesting international recipes.

I subscribed to the other two for years then realized I had many years of recipes to get to without getting any new issues so I canceled.

i do their online subscriptions. everything is available there.

used to get all 3 now we just have milk street..the other are great though we just never renewed

i felt like a giant kitchen idiot today...i'm making pasta sauce and grabbed their can opener which i'd never seen before..an oxo brand


i spent 15 minutes trying to figure it out before i finally watched a youtube video..i hung my head in shame
