Chicken & Waffles

Emeril does it right! Boneless fried chicken with crispy waffles all bathed in a Crystal hot sauce syrup, yummy, yummy. Perfectly paired with a light and cool grapefuit slaw.

Prodigious Gadgets of Gastronomy

I have decided to list some of my favorite cooking tools. I would love to add pictures, As they say, it is better, worth a thousand words and all, but I can't quite figure it out. My descriptions may not do the object justice, but considering that I am techno challenged . . . I will have to figure the picture thing out later.

Butter Bell
I love this and so do my kids. If you love butter like we do, you will love it too! There is nothing better than spreading soft butter on warm toast. The butter bell allows you to keep soft butter on hand while keeping it perfectly fresh for weeks. The only problem at the Schuh household, we go though our butter much quicker than that. The official site follows, http://www.butterbell.com

The OVEN SQUIRREL, I know what you're thinking, and no this is not some sort of road kill cooking technique, it is actually an ingenious tool. Cleverly designed to save you from burns and your kiddos from the fear of touching things in the oven.
The Oven Squirrel allows you to safely push and pull hot oven racks without risking a burn. Just as much fun to use as it is to look at, you pull with the ears and push with the paws. What a great gift for the cook who has everything, including children!

Pourfect Bowls, http://www.pourfectbowl.com. The Nike of mixing bowls. The designer of these bowls thought of everything . . . no spill, easy fit handle and a lip that grips the edge of the bowl you are pouring into. Check out the demos on their page. If you have kids who like to get in on the action or do a lot of baking you will love these bowls!

Desiccants, http://desiccantsonline.com. Food safe desiccants can be a life saver when humidity is high in your home and you want to store foods that need to remain crisp. Simply keep some of these handy and you won't have to worry about soggy meringues or pastries.

Favorite New Food Find

Julian's

Hawaiian Lehua Honey & Sweet Cream
We have been loving this HAAGEN-DAZS flavor for quite some time, I just haven't thought about listing it on the blog.
Beep fell hard for this fantastic flavor! He is such a softy. It is not easy to locate these days, the only store that is currently carrying it in our area is Central Market.
Don't mistake it for Haagen-Dazs' other honey flavor, there is no comparison. The ribbons of sweet golden honey are a perfect balance to the richness of the sweet cream base of this ice cream!!!!

Paesanol
First cold pressed Extra Virgin Olive Oil! A cloudy rich green oil that is simply amazing. Beep, Cam & I were at Jimmy's this weekend and we could barely fit through the isles. Note to self . . . visit Jimmy's during the week when they are not having a free food and wine tasting. Needless to say we skipped the meat counter and an endless wait time and just grabbed some necessities. Beep was making white clam sauce and wanted a new olive oil and boy did we find one!
The Paesanol is freshly produced oil bottled immediately after the first pressing in mid October. It is undecanted, therefore appearing even cloudier and greener, more herbaceous and pizzicante in flavor. Produced only once a year, since 1916 in Sicily, this oil is like no other. We got our 1 liter bottle for $14.99.

Roasted Beets
Red or golden . . . washed, roasted in the oven with S&P, a little olive oil and some water or broth are terrific. Cover and roast at 350 until fork tender, peel, slice or dice. Eat directly out of the pan or dice and toss with simple vinaigrette and add to any salad. YUM YUM!

Roquefort Societe Abeille
Only the creamiest, perfectly spotted blue, slightly salty, cheese I have had lately. Spread on a slice of apple or pear for a delicious treat.
