I’ve made a vat of this "liquid gold" — carrot, leek, celery soup, a real staple, drinkable and portable veggies — two weeks in a row. And then I realized if I made smaller quantities, it would be the easiest thing ever. bittmanproject.com/.../liquid-gol

An easy, healthyish riff on the traditional Mexican soup with all the flavor of the red chile, crispy pork, hominy, cabbage, radish, pumpkin seeds, cilantro, and plenty of lime.

I find myself in a very nuanced place of personal mystery and so I made pasta recipe on instagram and the case was closed. Roasted chickpea, caramelized onion, parsley, a little magic with the canning liquid, and I added a little parm and red pepper flake.

David Sedaris doesn't see himself as funny. "I have a very funny family, so if I compare myself to them, I'm just, you know, I'm nothing special. I mean I'm funnier than my boyfriend. He has some really good qualities, but you would never call him funny." apple.co/3HuKsAb

The 4th annual x Bittman CA Citrus Box is here! 8-10 lbs of sustainably sourced, mind-blowing citrus from local growers; each box has several varieties of the kind of fruit you can’t get “back east.” I've already eaten 2 boxes (with some help). bit.ly/3GDPSsd

My Cuisinart 4 slice has burned everything I’ve put in it. So that’s the best for consistency.

Everyone on our team has read SO many books this year, and so many that we've loved, that we felt like we couldn't NOT publish some recommendations, especially given that it's mid-December. (Not just food books, tho there's plenty of those too) bit.ly/3UXLEQg

If anyone has a current model toaster that doesn’t cost a small fortune (this one did) and actually works (this one did not, and now it’s determined to set the house on fire), I’d like to hear about it. Thx.

I did a Feast of the "7-10+" Fishes for Thanksgiving. It was inspired by the traditional, but it was not only irreverent + spontaneous, it is virtually un-duplicatable. It was a combination of what I had + the mood I was in, as some of the best cooking is. bit.ly/3FiYP8J

We have choices, but most available to Americans are bad ones. 60% of the calories in the food supply are in the form of ultra-processed foods, which are the primary cause of diet-related diseases, so many of us can barely make good choices ever. bit.ly/3VApAfx
