There were an awful lot of ads in today's grocery pages for 'American Style' Wagyu Beef cuts. The pictures don't look like any Wagyu Beef cuts I've seen, more like NY steak and not marble-y lookin. At $17.99 a pound here (NW Rockies) I don't think I'd invest, but am...

I've noticed on TV shows, particularly Cooks Illustrated, that they are using shredded fontina where mozzarella used to go, like on top of casseroles etc. when browning. I've never cooked with fontina, only have eaten it on a cheese trays at parties. I wanted to try some last week but...

We were in Atlanta last weekend and had the most delicious bulgogi at Kwan deli. It reminded me of the bulgogi I had in Seoul years ago. When I make it at home, the recipes usually call for flank steak but I'm almost positive that the delicious restaurant bulgogi I've...
