THE PERFECT RIB VIDEO

Dear Alton Brown, Thank you for teaching me a lot of what I know in the kitchen and for being the ultimate guru to all of us food nerds. I postponed making my rib video because I think I felt badly telling the world that I had proven you wrong about ribs. Don't fret master. It's just ribs. You are still right about everything else! Love, Claudia Dear Friends, I may have told you once or a thousand times that I have a technique for making perfect, fall of the bone, moist and insanely delicious baby back ribs in one [...]

KEEP IT CLEAN

I am possibly the only person to ever make a video about their favorite dish soap and their favorite sponge. I am also probably the last person to do so. I really don't want to steal any thunder from my very exciting video, so I will end my post now. Enjoy! (I do need to note that some types of cellulose are natural. I hope I didn't give too much away!)

In my bacon video, I share a technique that I learned in Culinary school about how to freeze bacon so you never have a bacon emergency. The lovely thing about individual pieces of [...]

GO GADGET GO – Part Trois – Le Video

Do I begin this post by addressing the VIDEO? I guess I just did. I am not going to stop writing because I am now entering into the exciting new world of video. Here it goes: I am not a huge proponent of gadgets for gadget's sake. In fact, I normally steer clear of new gadgets as I do with new movies. I usually wait a bit to see if they rise to the top naturally, however, in the case of Go Gadget Go part Trois, I will be recommending 2 BRAND new gadgets! This last Thanksgiving was quite innovative [...]

SHOW ME

I will let you in on a little secret. Sometimes, late at night, I get comfy in bed with my iphone and some headphones and surf YouTube for how to make certain dishes or how to learn a cooking technique. I am not a good book learner, but if I see something performed once, I can usually get the hang of it, not to mention seeing it performed multiple times. I am in the process of taping some TastyBits videos on everything from how to freeze bacon to my perfect rib technique. I know, you are on the edge of [...]
