The Month of Eating Dangerously continues! Even though cold weather has hit us in central Texas, we’re still using our grills. (We enjoy tennis year-round too; just don’t let any Yankees in on our secret.) Here’s a grilled chicken dish that has just enough punch to make the MOED list:

Ramen Reprise: How to Make Healthy Instant Noodles at Home

A couple months back, the Chile Underground declared Asian Noodles Month; it was an instant hit. (Don’t groan! Okay, go ahead, you need it.)

Instant Noodles: Nong Shim Shin Big Bowl, Gourmet Spicy

While preparing for the Big Birthday Blowout scheduled for yesterday, I caught a quiet moment in-between chores and ate a bowl of instant noodles. A very satisfying bowl of noodles, I might add!

Instant Noodles: Gear and Gadgets Galore

I once heard that you eat first with your eyes. Sounds rather messy to me if you’re a literalist; but otherwise it seems it’s true. (Me, I eat first with my nose. Even after years in chem labs I can still enjoy the aromas of fine vittles being prepared.) One of the small challenges with [...] Read more »

Fish 4 Friday: Crab & Asparagus Soup, or Sup Mang Tay Cua

My mother-in-law (MIL) has done it again. She’s gone and found a new dish that she really, really likes. She wants me to share it with the world. But she couldn’t quite describe it!
