I want to travel the world some day and eat fabulous foods in little places that only the locals know about. Of course this will happen after I become very rich, beautiful, and skinny. I can just see it now, me sitting at a little cafe in Paris, surrounded by locals, speaking fluent French as I converse with my husband Johnny Depp and eating beautiful food from his hand. Hey, a girl can dream, right?

When we lived in Boston, I used to occasionally take cooking classes at the Cambridge Culinary Institute. One of my favorite classes was on pâte à choux, the egg-leavened dough used to make “stuff with puff,” like éclairs, cream puffs, profiteroles, and gougères. http://eggsonsunday.wordpress.com/2009/03/23/goat-cheese-herb-gougeres/

http://smittenkitchen.com/blog/2008/09/best-challah-egg-bread/ I only know one Yiddish phrase (well, two, if you can count farshikkert , which is a pretty awesome way to say someone is three sheets to the wind), but conveniently, it is my favorite. A shonda for the goyim means, roughly, that someone of the Jewish faith is not only doing something shameful (shonda), but doing it in front of non-Jews, which of course is an entirely worse offense. Like, it would be bad enough to, say, eat ham and cheese on matzo on Passover (or, I suspect, ever and boy, do I have a great story about that but first let me see if I can get my mother to pay me not to share it) but it would be doubly more awful to do it in front of a person outside your faith.
There are a lot of reasons to make shakshuka , an Israeli dish of eggs poached in a spicy tomato sauce: It sounds like the name of a comic book hero. Or some kind of fierce, long-forgotten martial art. Or perhaps something that said comic book hero would yell as they practiced this elaborate martial art, mid-leap with their fist in the air.

I have a couple regrets related to Super Natural Every Day . Nothing too major, but one is related to photography. I'll start by saying it's not always feasible to have a photo with every recipe in a cookbook.

Breakfast is my favorite meal. I like to drink iced coffee and watch the cream climb its way down the chunky ice cubes in a dazy before the caffeine hits. I like to order bacon with whatever I’m eating.
