Ne znam zasto nikada ranije nismo probali raditi ricottu (mozda je ovo prvi put da smo kupili vise mlijeka no sto mozemo popiti), ali jednostavno (grijes litru bez da zakipi, dodas sok pola limuna, mijesas na laganoj vatri dok se ne zgrusa, cijedis) i nevjerovatno nevjerovatno fino...

Integralno brašno, maslinovo ulje, sok jedne narandze, slatkoca samo od prezrele banane i grozdica, a lako bi postalo i vegan (uz sve te mljackave banane to jedno jaje je manje bitno). Muti se 2 minute, pece 40 minuta. Neki onda mažu peanut butter...

Ako trošite zadnje zalihe zamrznutih višanja i marcipana racunajuci da ce sad proljece jer vidite prvi pup na čljivi pod prozorom, ehem... (kako su zaiste bile zadnje i vrlo oskudne zalihe visanja ja sam dodala i kriske jabuka, ispade vrlo vrlo pristojan tart)

"Kuvao sam 45 minuta pečeni rižoto sa tikvicama. Propržio sam dve glavice crnog luka na ulju i preko njega stavio šoljicu suvog pirinča i propržio dok i on nije postao proziran. Zatim sam dodao 2 sitno naseckana paradajza i šoljicu vode u kojoj je umućena kašićica vegete. Ostavio sam da proključa, iz tiganja presuo u pekač, preko poređao tikvice naseckane na kolutove, preko narendao kačkavalj i pobiberio. Podesio sam još na početku rernu da se zagreje na 200°, a sada podesio tajmer da peče 30 minuta i ubacio poklopljeni pekač. Na polovini pečenja, proverio sam u kakvom je stanju tečnost, jer valja da ostane sočno do kraja pečenja. Nakon pečenja, bacio sam preko jela peršun."

"Tellingly, 98 percent of Rockford housewives in the USDA study believed that, despite its many flaws, industrial white bread was highly nutritious—a strong and vigorous food. People who still felt that there was just something wrong with industrial loaves would have to find a language other than that of nutritional science to express their doubts. Aesthetic arguments offered one of the only ways forward, but epicurean appeals often rang hollow against the muscle-bound science of enriched-white-bread advocates."

"Thank god today's dreams of good society rest on the natural and rustic, I think. But baking USDA No. 1 has also attuned me to the possibility that today's miracle food can become tomorrow's catastrophe. In some ways, the visions of "good food" put forward by contemporary food reformers and champions of industrial eating couldn't be more opposed. But in their confident belief that...

"...it wasn't just because Americans were duped by corporate advertising. Certainly, advertising did play a major role in producing the desire for industrial food (just as advertising also helps produce the desire for "homey" artisanal food). But the truth is bigger than advertising. It lies in an ethos of scientific eating that emerged out of real anxieties and aspirations in the early twentieth century."

"...they created a double-blind experiment that asked every member of every family to assess five different white-bread formulas over six weeks. Four years and almost one hundred thousand slices of bread after the project's conception, a clear portrait of America's favorite loaf emerged. It was 42.9 percent fluffier than the existing industry standard and 250 percent sweeter. This is the bread I sought to reproduce—"USDA White Pan Loaf No. 1"—the archetype of 1950s-vintage American bread."

"Technology could accelerate fermentation, but it was too much a part of bread's flavor and structure to do away with altogether. Then, in 1952, John C. Baker, a chemist who first grew interested in bread while studying the effects of chlorine-gas bleaching on flour, grasped the problem from a new angle. Previously, scientists had worked to eliminate fermentation altogether, which was...

"When baking European breads, I bend over backward to produce a honeycomb of bright, irregular holes, a mark of quality in many artisanal loaves. But large, uneven holes have no place in the modernist aesthetic. Each one would represent an unacceptable reminder of bread's natural life, a worm-eaten realm of imperfection, unconquered by science. I can't wait to slice the bread open to reveal its secret architecture."

"Combining astronomy and good eats sounds too good to be true. But in their celestial collection of planetary chocolates, chocolatier L’éclat of the Righa Royal Hotel Japan have done just that. The chocolaty solar system includes Mercury (coconut mango), Venus (cream lemon), Earth (cacao), Mars (orange praline), Jupiter (vanilla), Saturn (rum raisin), Uranus (milk tea) and Neptune (capuccino) – sorry, pluto is no longer considered a planet."

"No Norwegian lunch would be complete without one of Norway’s most distinctive dishes, gravlax. The name literally means “Grave-Salmon” and refers to the medieval practice of curing the raw fish by burying it in the sand above the high tide level."

"Thinly slice a Fuyu persimmon, dust lightly with cinnamon, and bake in a toaster oven until the edges curl, about 10 minutes. The result is alchemy: the heat brings forth the persimmon's natural sugars to a delicious sweetness and the cinnamon adds just a hint of spice."

tuvuk vrijedi truda, pogotovo ako je zagorio na dnu kazana - iliti ide pod imenom kazandibi. ali ne treba ga raditi po ovom super-kompliciranom recept, sigurno postoji jednostavniji. medjutim, svakako ne raditi one zamjenske bez mesa. ipak je to glavni feature - slatko od pilecih prsa (tuvuk = pile). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki...
