Strange Red Wine Glasses Set or Bloody Brilliant Design? It is hard not to notice the visual similarity between red wine and blood, but this one-of-a-kind set of wine glasses and decanters plays up this colorful relationship in a creative (if disturbing) way. Though the shape is playful and humorous the craft reflects training in the creation of fine crystal. The heart-shaped drinking glass is perhaps the most amusing as well as dynamic piece in the set, each valve filling together from the center. This limited-edition, hand-blown glassware set by Etienne Meneau has other funky objects as well outside of the drinking glass shown above, including large custom decanters that similarly fill up along variegated veined lines that converge only toward the top. Because these do not fill from a central point they can fill and empty in strange ways and at different rates, making the experience of pouring into and out of them part of the fun of using them.
Fruit “Caviar” – Adventures in Molecular Cooking [3] “Fruit Caviar” Last week I received the elBulli Texturas MiniKit that I ordered from the UK. Not only did it include the groovy Texturas ingredients, but also the tools and guidebook that I needed to really jump into this brave new world. Use baking soda for easy-to-peel hard-boiled eggs Sometimes, I’m a little slow to pick up on cause and effect. Let me give you an example. My husband’s family loves deviled eggs, and for years, I’ve been making them by the dozens for different events.
DIY Concrete Light Bulb: Make Your Own Coat Hooks During a recession we want everything we do to be cheaper and easier – projects cannot take the place of work (or of finding a job) but no one wants to sacrifice style for convenience either. This clever do-it-yourself concrete clothing hanger is a great blend of easy-to-make, cheap materials and innovative look. While frustrated by constantly-breaking coat hooks and simultaneously working on an unrelated project to fill light bulbs with concrete for artistic purposes, well, it is clear what happened next: the idea to fuse these two make-it-yourself projects into one cleverly functional idea. The process and plans are pretty simple – undo the bottom of the bulb, fill it with concrete, add a lag bolt and seal it back up.
Our Veggie Kitchen: Seitan Parmesan I used to make chicken Parmesan whenever I wanted a good old-fashioned indulgence, but I'd abandoned thoughts of veganizing it long ago. After my fist bite of Daiya vegan cheese, though, I thought "I've gotta make Seitan Parmesan." I added some lemon zest and salt to the breading and it made for a tasty crust and, with the cheese and sauce, I was back in good-old-fashioned heaven again. Seitan Parmesan 1/2 Recipe Marinara Sauce (about 2 cups) 4 Chicken-y seitan cutlets 1 cup vegan mozzarella cheese oil for frying Breading: 1 cup bread crumbs (I used whole wheat) 1/4 cup flour 1/2 tsp lemon zest 1/4 tsp salt Batter: 1/2 cup unsweetened soy milk 1 tbs Vegenaise Prepare the marinara ahead of time or have your favorite jarred sauce ready. Mix the Vegenaise with the soy milk in a wide bowl.

How to make perfect chocolate mousse Crepes suzettes and rhum baba may have come and gone, and profiteroles long outstayed their welcome, but chocolate mousse is one sixties favourite that's immune to the vagaries of fashion. Richly flavoured, yet light as air, there are few more perfect ways to end a meal. But, as with so many of its contemporaries time has not been kind to this once proud dessert – people have added olive oil, basil, and even – dear God – avocado, soy sauce and balsamic vinegar, all in the name of clever modern twists. Frankly, chocolate mousse needs bringing up to date like Rubber Soul needs a remix from Lady Gaga. The classic recipe

Green Lemonade The healthiest drink in the world? Lemonade stands will never be the same. I don’t think I ever sold lemonade as a kid. I ran a cookie stand and a hot chocolate stand, and my friend and I once sold flowers we picked from her mom’s garden. (Not a good idea; nobody bought flowers, and her mom yelled at us for ruining the flower beds.) Types of Skills Everyone Should Know &150; Video &150; Top 100... 3.
