Eat Asparagus to Prevent a Hangover

http://www.rodale.com/how-prevent-hangover If only you'd eaten some asparagus last night. Figuring out how to prevent a hangover while hungover is no fun. While there are plenty of folk remedies that people use to prevent a hangover—drinking through a straw, taking an aspirin, eating lots of bread to absorb the alcohol—a new study documents a hangover remedy that may actually work.

Country of Origin: China More... Country of Origin: China Tea Family: Scented / Flavored Tea Tea Format: Loose Leaf The Gout Russe blends were created by Dammann in the 1950's courtesy of Jean Jumeau-Lafond's Russian-born wife who was in the habit of squeezing an orange section into her hot cup of tea. As in the Gout Russe, the Douchka blend consists of unsmoked black tea from China with a touch of orange oil, but it also includes lemon oil and bergamot (the oil used in Earl Grey). Recommended steep time is 4-5 minutes. Produced By: Dammann Freres View All Products from Dammann Freres http://www.formaggiokitchen.com/shop/product_info.php?products_id=529

I love me some hot chocolate. In a big, obsessive way. I love the stuff and may or may not be known to enjoy it year round. If someone happened to give me truffle hot chocolate balls as a Christmas gift? http://www.melskitchencafe.com/2010/12/truffle-hot-chocolate-balls-sugar-rush-2.html

Easy Parmesan Knots

http://realmomkitchen.com/609/easy-parmesan-knots/ This recipe will got great with the Mama Mia’s Minestrone from yesterday or any other great Italian meal. It is a recipe that I adapted from one I found in an issue of Simple and Delicious. These are easy to make because they start off with a can of refrigerated biscuit dough. However, they look fancy because you shape the dough in a knot. Pretty, yummy and easy.
I have wanted to experiment and make drinks using coconut water since I first sipped the delectable nectar straight out of a coconut a couple of years back at a food market. It was love at first sip and I’ve been looking for it ever since. Only recently have fresh coconuts become more common on our shelves, so a couple of weeks ago, when Tandy came to cook her bouillabaisse at my house, I decided to make this drink. I had strawberries which are now in season, so thought this was a perfect partner and would not overpower the subtle flavour of the coconut water. You can make this a ‘virgin’ (no alcohol), or add a splash of white rum to make it more exciting. http://drizzleanddip.com/2012/10/29/a-delectable-cocktail-with-strawberries-and-coconut-water

http://smittenkitchen.com/blog/2012/06/broccoli-parmesan-fritters/ Last week, it was pointed out to me that among the 750 recipes in the archives , there is but a single recipe that utilizes broccoli . Just one! (It’s a great one , though.) For comparison, there are 11 recipes that use cauliflower and 26 with mushrooms . What terrible oversight could have led to this?

Jonesing for some gourmet tri-tip and a solid buzz? Check out Cannabis Catering, a San Francisco-based outfit that specializes in marijuana cuisine. The brainchild of Chef Frederick Nesbitt, a California Culinary Academy-trained chef who has worked as personal chef for Jerry Rice and John Madden, Cannabis Catering offers four and five-course meals laced with ganja. The idea for Cannabis Catering came to Nesbitt when he learned that his friend's diabetic mother had been diagnosed with cancer. "I would bring back edibles [from the dispensary], but they're so high in high-fructose corn syrup that she was high off sugar rather than being medicated," he says.

100 Things Restaurant Staffers Should Never Do (Part 1)

Herewith is a modest list of dos and don’ts for servers at the seafood restaurant I am building. Veteran waiters, moonlighting actresses, libertarians and baristas will no doubt protest some or most of what follows. They will claim it homogenizes them or stifles their true nature. And yet, if 100 different actors play Hamlet, hitting all the same marks, reciting all the same lines, cannot each one bring something unique to that role?

100 Things Restaurant Patrons Should Never Do

Warning: things are about to get a little snarky. Back in October, Bruce Buschel wrote a piece for the New York Times blog, “ 100 Things Restaurant Staffers Should Never Do .” Buschel explained this list to be a part of the training manual he would use for an upcoming fine dining seafood restaurant of his, a literal lists of 100 “Don’ts.” This idea of training through a series of do nots instead of through illustrations of what should be done irks me in and of itself, especially as a restaurant manager. I have to admit that I do agree with some of his points, but I found the article to be, well, essentially hating on his staff (what a way to build up morale, Buschel!), without having allowed them a chance to prove that they more than likely already knew a lot of these rules– and that they didn’t need to be subjected to a patronizing list.
