Aunt Amélie's Smooth Chocolate Cake
A severe bout of procrastination found me browsing through other people's interviews. Stupendous? Smooth? Chocolate? And cooked in a water bath? My curiosity itched so badly it had to be soothed with tiger balm.

2003 Condado de Haza Ribera del Duero
Fernández has another estate in north central Spain called Condado de Haza where he's making a terrific Ribera del Duero that sells for less than $25. Made from Tinto Fino (a variant of Tempranillo) grown on south-facing slopes, the 2003 Condado de Haza is juicy, dark in tone and redolent of wild herbs and smoke. A wonderful bottle for the money.

Danish Pork Burgers
"Have you ever had a pork burger? They're amazing. Everyone in Iowa eats pork burgers." I can't say I was convinced, but I saw the light. These burgers aren't hamburgers made out of ground pork. They are more like large, flattened Swedish meatballs. Very tasty. Thank you Paul Willis, the Fancy Food Show, Niman Ranch, and Paul's wife Phyllis for a fabulous recipe.

How YouTube (Almost) Made Me
a Cooking-Show Star
I figured, why not dip a toe into the viral video stream? (Not a fortunate image, I'll grant you.) Hey, maybe making my own cooking videos and posting them online could turn out to be my ticket to mega-fame.

Tamales
Imagine Mexico without tacos or tamales. Imagine Mexican intellectuals trying to eliminate corn from the country where it was born. History professor Jeffrey Pilcher, author of Que Vivan Los Tamales: Food and the Making of Mexican Identity, joins us this week for a look at the debate that could be called a national identity crisis.

Recipe Redux 1907: Soupe à l'Oignon Gratinée
For reasons of tradition, and perhaps inertia, the custom of separating sweet and savory foods - begun when meals took on a more sequential structure and sugar was considered a digestive - largely continues, especially now that sugar is viewed as anything but health-giving.

Meyer Lemon Risotto
I know this is going to be a hard sell to some of you purists, but I started experimenting with pearl barley and other grains in place of the rice I was using in traditional Italian risottos. Haven't looked back since.
