I love the show and the dishes you feature are...
I hope I’m not too late in answering this! Cod makes great fish and chips…whip up a simple beer batter (I like this one from Alton Brown http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/alton-brown/chips-and-fish-recipe/index.html, but the cornstarch isn’t necessary…just replace with a flour/salt/pepper mix).
Halibut cheeks are amazing sauteed in a simple white wine/butter sauce.
You...

Farmer's Market Caponata Recipe
Here’s the recipe for the caponta Brendan & I made yesterday for our Garden To Table cooking demos at the New York Botanical Garden’s Edible Garden. This caponata makes wonderful bruschetta as an appetizer; a delicious sandwich on thick foccacia; or a wonderful topping or side for grilled fish, steak, or lamb.
I recommend using tiny fairytale eggplants for their mild flavor and...

Please come to my cooking demos tomorrow at the...
rebeccalando:
For more info, check out NYBG.
You can ride your bike, drive, or take the subway to the Gardens. For a $3.50 CityTicket, you can also take MetroNorth to the Botanical Gardens stop on the Harlem line - only 20 minutes from Grand Central.
Seriously, please come, because I am so afraid I’m going to screw up and I’d rather do it in front of friends than total strangers.
Please come...

On your last episode you made the fruit...
Whoops! Better late than never, right? The processing bath hygienically seals the filled jars. Be careful getting the jars into and out of the bath, and make sure the lid fits tight (no popping up and down) before you store your preserves! If the processing bath failed to create a strong seal and the lid does pop, store your preserves in the fridge and use within a week.

any suggestions for homemade bread crumbs? Thanks!
take any loaf of stale bread. you can remove the crust or keep it on; i like to keep the crust on. toss your bread in a blender or food processor and grind away until you like the consistency. pop the crumbs into a clean pint or quart container, label with the date, and store ‘em in the freezer. enjoy!

Viewer Submission: Lindsay's Fudgy Chocolate Dutch...
A viewer emailed us this recipe, so I thought I’d share it with all of you. Mmm, cake!
Lindsay sez:
Here is a recipe I learned from a Mormon family in Idaho (old friends of ours). It’s very simple, VERY rich, and sinfully delicious. Plus, I’m particularly fond of this recipe because of its versatility. You can use just about any kind of cake batter that you prefer; I’ve...

Recipe / Tacos de Carnitas
hielsa:
Do you love carnitas tacos? do you? Then you should make this carnitas recipe from Serious Eats. They figured out the best way to make them (you can check their work here) and produced a simple but flawless recipe.
We made it this weekend and were very excited with the results. The only suggestion I would add would be to substitute their salsa verde with my mom’s own salsa (recipe...

kristynseda asked: Here's a mini-challenge. All my life I've heard about how absolutely delicious hummus is. Here's the problem: I'm allergic to sesame seeds (and the tahini). I've looked up recipes and most of them call for a good amount of it so if I just skipped the tahini altogether I'm sure I wouldn't get a satisfying result. Do you know of anything I could use to make a...

What would be a good homemade tomato based pasta...
For a thicker sauce, cook your tomatoes down longer. Use good-quality canned whole tomatoes - look for actual San Marzano tomatoes from Italy - NOT the San Marzano brand, it’s actually from California. I also like the Pomí chopped tomatoes that come in vacuum boxes. Simmer for at least an hour or two, or all day if you’ve got the time, with a couple tablespoons of olive oil and half an...

Matzoh ball soup in homemade chicken broth, homemade unsweetened apple sauce, and an all-fruit ice pop will cure just about any ailment. And, yes, a hearty, nutrient-rich vegetable soup is the perfect equivalent for vegetarians or vegans.
