Add 2 ½ cups (500 ml) water to the poaching liquid and boil to reduce the liquid by half. Let cool Make the cake: Preheat the oven to 350°F (170°C) Using a hand mixer, beat the butter and sugar in a large bowl until creamy. Beat in the eggs one at the time.

[Photo: Blake Royer] I'm not sure I'll ever quite tire of the magical combination of garlic and chile—when a recipe begins with a little olive oil and garlic and a pinch of crushed red pepper flakes, I know we're off to a good start. I'm even more inclined when the involved recipe requires about 10 minutes of cooking and hardly any chopping to boot. I pulled this one from So Easy by Ellie Kreiger, which is full of health-conscious recipes that pack a lot of flavor. Healthy it might have been, but more importantly, delicious .

We’ve been on a “No Reservations” kick lately and in this household, anything Anthony Bourdain says, goes. For a couple who doesn’t even own a television, we seem to be watching an awful lot of the Emmy award-winning show. Well, I’ve got newsflash for all you Netflix members out there, Anthony Bourdain: No Reservations is on instant view for your computer! That’s our little secret to keeping up with the globe-trotting, fellow Manhattanite Travel Channel host. Albeit, we’re about 5 years trailing behind the band wagon but trust me, we are all caught up now.

http://www.epicurious.com/articlesguides/cuisines/aroundtheworldin80dishes/koreabulgogirecipe B eef Bulgogi sounds very foreign and exotic, but actually it's simply marinated beef wrapped in lettuce leaves. The Culinary Institute of America's Chef John J. Nihoff shows us how to make this authentic Korean recipe—thinly sliced sweet and savory sirloin, served with rice and a variety of condiments. Commonly called Korean barbecue in the U.S., "bulgogi" translates to "fire meat" in English. The term "refers to the way the meat is cooked, first marinated, then grilled over hot coals or an open fire," explains Jenny Kwak in Dok Suni: Recipes from My Mother's Korean Kitchen . Bulgogi can also easily be cooked in a pan, as Chef Nihoff demonstrates in the videos.

I was facing a major challenge, a catch 22 almost: I wanted to create a vegetarian pumpkin recipe for Kayotic Kitchen. But here’s the catch: my guy hates pumpkin. No, he doesn’t just dislike it, he hates it with a passion.
