All of these are gifts that any food-loving low-carber would appreciate. Despite the numbers, they are in no particular order and each has its charm. Each and every one we own or regularly use ourselves. In some cases, we know the people behind the scenes personally or by reputation. From your purchase of some of…
I love mayonnaise. Always have. But, as I’ve written before, I find most of what populates store shelves unacceptable — filled with partially hydrogenated cottonseed oil or soybean or some other equally wretched seed or vegetable oils. And so I have tended to make my own for the last many years, using EVOO, avocado oil,…
Traditionally, of course, it’s ‘sweets for your sweetie’ on Valentine’s Day, but what if your sweetie eschews sugar and carbs? Then sweets are the last thing he or she might appreciate. So what to do? There’s always champagne or flowers or a nice dinner out, but why not think about giving something your beloved will…
Ever look at the ingredients in store-bought mayo? Almost all of them are some version of this ingredient list, taken from a major brand: water, soybean (and/or cottonseed or canola) oil, modified food starch (corn, potato), eggs, sugar, vinegar, salt, lemon juice, sorbic acid, and calcium disodium EDTA (used to protect quality), natural flavor, vitamin…

Today’s paper brought an interesting article from AP Food Editor JM Hirsch helping us solve the perennial summer dilemma of what to do with a bounty of zucchini. The stuff of jokes, cartoons, and sitcom scripts, zucchini overload is no joke for some gardeners if a prolific crop comes in. While low carb devotees can…
Especially when dieting in the winter, having a bit of something warm, sweet, and comforting as a treat can sometimes be the difference in sticking to your dietary guns and throwing in the towel. As a lover of chocolate, a mug of cocoa fills the bill for me and this recipe, based on unsweetened almond…
Couldn’t resist passing on the information in this blog post from Chef It Yourself about cooking a Mangalitsa pork neck roll. As readers of Mike’s blog know, he and I took a three-day seminar a few months back on the proper techniques for butchering and cooking Wooly Pigs, or Mangalitsa as they’re more properly called….
An article appeared in our local bugle today that caught my eye. The piece, written the AP’s Michele Kayal centers around Mark Bitterman’s, new book Salted which extols the glories of the natural salts of the Earth and which I just received from my darling husband for Christmas. The reason it caught my eye is…
