It’s also the lazy person’s beverage: Just seed and cube a couple lemons and cube some (seedless) watermelon and throw it all in the blender. The only other ingredients you need are water and sugar because the melon is doing the heavy lifting here. Blend, strain, and serve over ice. Pick the Perfect Lemon You don’t have to juice a ton of lemons for this recipe—the whole fruit is going in the blender—that’s right, skin, pith and flesh!...
Indo-Caribbeans in Guyana, Trinidad, and Suriname commonly refer to Holi as Phagwah, a term of the Bhojpuri language which is a dialect of Hindi. It stems from the Hindi word “Phalguna” which corresponds to the months of February and March. Indo-Caribbeans observe Phagwah similarly to the rest of the world, celebrating with family, prayer rituals, and delicious sweets. Growing up in Queens, NY, I spent Phagwah in the kitchen cooking with the many women in my family....

In spite of the name, there is no “wheat” in buckwheat. It’s not even a grain or grass. Yet in many ways it behaves like wheat, and its flour produces wonderfully, unexpectedly, fluffy pancakes, with a rich, warm, earthy taste. A Pancake Recipe You Can Make Gluten-Free We experimented quite a bit with this recipe, including an egg, excluding an egg, all buckwheat flour (naturally gluten-free), or half buckwheat, half all-purpose flour, and you know what?...
“Buffalo” Wings Once in my early twenties, I happened to be in Buffalo, New York for a wedding of a dear friend. On our site-seeing day, the gang of us revelers happened to drive right by the Anchor Bar, home of the “Original Buffalo Chicken Wings.” Did you know that Buffalo wings are so called because they were first invented in Buffalo, NY? I didn’t, and it had always been one of those oddities that gnawed at the back of my brain during these beer filled nights....

Those who prefer heavy amount of cloves and raisins are traditionalists; they have a penchant for nostalgia and reminiscing over their fragrant and fruity carrot cakes that encapsulate their childhood. Others prefer orange juice - modernizing the classics and stirring up cocktails to pair with them.

While other Americans are happily firing away during the hot summer, filling up their neighborhoods with juicy aromas, we would tend to stay inside and think of what we could make for dinner that didn’t use the stove or oven. The problem is that Sacramento summers start early and go on forever, and cold food just gets tiring after a month or two. Which is why I brought home a grill a few weeks ago....
Video: How to Cook Roast Beef I remember accompanying her to our local corner butcher (now long gone) years ago. The butcher had these huge graphics of beef, pork, lamb on the wall behind the meat counter showing what part of the animal the various cuts came from. It was easy to see that a chuck roast came from the shoulder, and that a rump roast came from, well, the rump....

I give Chipotle Mexican Grill credit for inspiring my version, which came about out of desperation when their business hours didn’t jive with my cravings. What’s So Great About Chipotle’s Guacamole? Uh, everything! Whereas most chain restaurants’ guacamole seems to be squeezed from a plastic bag, or worse yet, scraped from an industrial tub, Chipotle’s guac is full of avocado chunks and speckled with fresh produce. For me, the selling points of Chipotle’s guacamole have always been the hint of spice from the jalapeños and that shot of lime that hits you in the back of your jaw (in the best way possible, of course)....
