As I noted a few weeks ago, grow-a-brain (best real estate blog in the universe, IMO) has moved (to here). Hanan Levin, who maintains the site (and our brains), sent me a note about it yesterday. I don’t know where he comes up with all the fascinating links on the food page subsidiary, but I do recommend going there. Of special interest, The 2003 Grow-a-Brain Food Links – it’s just plain fun!

It’s not St. Patrick’s, it’s Bach’s birthday. Liz and I watched The Importance Of Being Earnest (the 2002 version, though I also have the classic 1952 version from Netflix for comparison) and I’m cooking up the corned beef and cabbage way late for St. Paddy. Nice golf-ball sized red potatoes, a few carrots too. I had sliced the leftover corned beef way too thin, getting carried away with the new slicer. So many things wrong, but it still looks like food. Didn’t have the gumption to make wheaten, so I made Irish sodas bread anyway. Neither Liz nor I can hack raisins or currants, so I misted the top and sprinkled pretzel salt on it.

Being a sucker for dried beans of all sorts, I perked up when I heard of a new one on The Splendid Table a few minutes ago. Anya Von Bremzen was discussing the classic cassoulets with Lynne Rossetto Kasper and mentioned Tarbais beans as the very best for high-end “beans and weenies.” Yeah, but you have to read her book to get her source for them. Let’s try Google instead…ah, here’s a place to buy them! If you still want to buy her book, it’s The Greatest Dishes!: Around the World in 80 Recipes and here is her recipe for Feijoada Completa.
UPDATE: I've never heard Lynne Rossetto Kasper miss a beat until today. She normally spouts out ingredients and authors at the drop of a hat on the call-in portion of the program and constantly amazes me with her memory. Today, she mentioned the cookbook Real Thai, by Nancie..."uh, her last name just dropped out of the back of my head." It's Nancie McDermott (my mind is useless, but Google found it for me - even though I started out with "Nancy").
