A friend recently sent me a link to an ice cream recipe that used cornstarch, rather than eggs, as a binder and thickener. That prompted me to think (and write him back) about an ice cream-making technique I learned about when writing The Perfect Scoop. Talking to Faith Willinger, an expert on Italian cuisine, she told me that some Italian ice creams (namely in Sicily)…
就最喜欢的冰淇淋口味而言，无花果冰淇淋可能不在您的列表中。但是，一旦您品尝了它，您可能会添加它。提供椰子味和参考无花果的味道的确切描述是很棘手的，但本身就是它自己的味道。住在一个城市，我没有无花果树，…
蛋酒不是我怀旧的东西。当然，我一生都在鸡蛋和牛奶和奶油上度过，但是当我喝酒时，我倾向于去找更艰难的东西。但是我一直在努力改变这一点，将其分支到其他饮料上。我的家人没有人做蛋酒，但是作为一个成年人，我一直很乐意努力……
When it was on the cusp of popularity in the U.S., I sort of introduced crème brûlée to a restaurant where I was working at the time, and, predictably, they took off. So much so, that most of my nights were spent torching crème brûlée as fast as I could. Finally, I put an end to that (popularity is overrated), and that was that. There…
我一直在思考什么，如果有的话，我应该结束一年。过去，我在这里写下了我的想法，我在过去的几天里都在思考。阅读和重新阅读我写的内容，我意识到我无法完全弄清楚我想说的话。而且，如果我不弄清楚，我就不会觉得我应该在……

People often come to Paris and ask about where they can get a good cassoulet, or bouillabaisse, and they look positively crestfallen when I tell them they really need to go to Gascony or Marseille, respectively, if they…
I’ve seen (and eaten!) cakes topped with caramelized almonds in several countries in the world, but never took a try at one myself. I love anything covered with crunchy, nutty, caramel (Including the famed Chez Panisse almond tart), and after dreaming about the many variations of this that I’ve tried, the time seemed right to finally tackle making one myself. I tried a few similar…
I love cookies. If there is a selection of cookies on a dessert menu, I always will order it. I’ve been to cookie shops from Beirut to Bushwick, nibbling my way through chewy chocolate chip cookies, macarons, buttery sablés, and snappy ginger cookies, whenever I can. Even Parisians get in on the act by dubbing chocolate chip cookies, les cookies, perhaps because they are the classic…
It’s not a drag to be in Paris in August. In fact, those who stay in town always say the same thing – “This is the best time of year to be in Paris.” (Or, “Wouldn’t it be incroyable if it was like this all year?”) Even though Paris is a lot smaller, imagine if 85% of the people left New York City or San Francisco in…
