I don’t know that I can recall the very first time I ever picked up a whisk, but I can remember all the years since that I’ve spent learning and growing with every cracked egg.
Good knife work is a lot like good foot work, when it’s happening you’re mesmerized and when it’s done you’re satisfied. I know I’m stretching my metaphors like Mr. Fantastic stretches, oh, forget it.
With Thanksgiving right around the corner, I thought it’d be a great time to give you a cool idea to make your meal special.
Guess who’s back! (“Welcome Back Kotter” theme song plays.) Sorry for the long break, I was having disagreements with my editor. She wanted Kitchen 101 to be sexier. I told her I was more than a piece of meat, I’ve got tasty side dishes too!
Face it, fall is here kiddies. But it’s not all bad. Boots are now comfortable to wear and you don’t feel like an idiot walking around with hot drinks.
Yes, I’m aware that we just did Reese’s Peanut Butter Puff Daddy Muffins a few weeks back. But these are delicious, so get over it.
For the most part, dorm cooking kind of sucks. The spaces are small and the amenities are hardly worth mentioning. I’ve tried to give you guys and gals some tips to making better food in your cement cells, but have yet to give you a fully dorm ready recipe, until now.
Every chef needs his or her tools. If you listen to the cooks and chefs on Food Network, you might believe that you need an arsenal to boil an egg, but that’s hardly true.
“Friends, Freaks & Fakes” is a surprising show. On the surface, this webseries would seem to be a serialized version of “Degrassi” with a slightly better soundtrack or “Glee” without the musical numbers. But instead of preachy life lessons or botched versions of pop songs already forgotten, viewers are served a raw bite of realism, honesty and a charm that may prove to be a winning combination.
Mushrooms, I feel bad for them. Sure, they’re delicious, nutritious and inexpensive but when was the last time you actually ate a mushroom that wasn’t on a burger or deep fried? There’s more to this fungus than to play second fiddle.
Monday, I took a trip to a grocery store to pick up some supplies for this week’s Kitchen 101. Initially, I planned a tasty, savory dish. But after stumbling past a box that read “Reese’s Muffin Mix,” everything changed.
Late last semester, I released into the world my first Ramen noodle-based recipes to the masses. From the complete lack of emails I received about it, I could tell it was a roaring success.
Apples, broccoli, cherries, cabbage, grapes, pears and raspberries are just some of the many celebrated fruits and vegetables produced around Michigan. But on Saturday there was only one fruit showcasing its plump frame. That fruit was the sweet, bright red delight known as the strawberry; Ms. Berry, if you’re tasty.
Aside from the sweltering heat, Saturday’s Depot Town Strawberry Showcase was genuinely fun. There was a lot of good food and I even met a few cool people.
This recipe actually started as a Rice Krispies Treat s’more idea. I’m not the biggest fan of s’mores, so I decided to make it into something I do like. The resulting recipe tastes like what would happen if a Nestle Crunch Bar, a jar of Nutella and a Rice Krispies Treat had a baby… a delicious, crispy, chocolaty baby.
Who are The 39 Steps? Who killed Annabella Schmidt? Why does this inn only have one kind of sandwich? How does Richard Hannay keep himself so fit? All questions answered in the cunning and comical play “Alfred Hitchcock’s: The 39 Steps.”
Pasta is one of the most basic college dorm essentials. Yet this is one starchy food that people often cook incorrectly. When it comes to pasta, it’s the little things that help you get the most out of your enriched macaroni product.
Being in the public eye often makes people curious about your personal life. When you’re in the public eye and also a part of the community like former student body President Jelani McGadney, that curiosity can skew into the odd.
For leaders of all types, leaving a positive legacy is important. For Eastern Michigan University Student Body President Jelani McGadney, his legacy has yet to be determined. With past accomplishments overshadowed by current tasks, even McGadney hasn’t had a moment to reflect.
By many accounts, current Eastern Michigan University Student Body President Jelani McGadney has had one the most celebrated terms in recent history.
