From the why haven’t I thought of that files: Mark Bittman uses the corn cobs to make a stock for his corn chowder! Brilliance!
I love the idea of riz compose, which a Emily at Accidental Hedonist discusses. And just when I was lamenting a lack of recipe to go along with her description of this French salad staple, along comes Mark Bittman (again!) with four great rice salad recipes!
The always charming Clotilde at Chocolate & Zucchini has a terrific looking lemon kefir ice cream recipe. (And she even includes separate instructions for ice cream maker-less people like me!)
Grub Street reports that Monkey Town in Williamsburg has reopened. If you haven’t been, by all means go! The menu is really innovative, and the food actually tastes good (innovation and tasty don’t always go together in the restaurant world!), plus you can catch some crazy-ass movies, video performances, and/or live bands whilst chowing down.
Nyom, nyom, nyom, nyom. That is the sound of me looking, or rather drooling, at pictures of ice cream sandwiches from restaurants and cafes around NYC. [from Serious Eats]
