Coming to you on Saturday!
I didn’t know if I was more excited about the new season of Top Chef, or the winsome repartee about it by Adam Platt and Josh Ozersky on Grub Street. It turns out Ozersky is off the gig this season, and Daniel Maurer has replaced him. While certainly witty enough, I am not sure the chemistry of previous TC-post-mortems is there yet. Maybe it’ll help if they come up with cute nicknames for each other as Platt and Ozersky did, it’d help bolster the fun quotient. Is it just me that loved Platt calling Ozerky “Cutty?”
I happen to love broccoli, even when it is “squishy,” but when The Amateur Gourmet proclaims a recipe the “Best Broccoli of your Life,” I take it as an imperative to try the recipe. It does look and sound incredibly tasty.
As part of her “Thanksgiving Series,” Food Mayhem features a recipe for pumpkin lasagne. Um, yum!!
Too-sweet sweet potato haters, rejoice! Bittman offers four marshmallow-free sweet potato recipes. As someone who thinks that sweet potato (and butternut squash) recipes often skew so sweet as to mask their earthy, savory characteristics, I was thrilled to see this post. The shredded SP’s with brown butter and sage look especially enchanting.
Or, if you really like sugary sweet potatoes, why not use caramelized onions to sweeten them up! As seen over at the Kitchn. Sounds scrumptious!
