Yesterday, National Public Radio released its list of the 10 best cookbooks of the summer season. Way down at the bottom is a photograph and quick review of a vegetarian book that makes its focus on enjoying the foods that are out there instead of having "mock" and "faux" meat-meal replacements. Have a look and taste some of the recipes at NPR.org.
Today, National Public Radio's Weekend Edition Sunday announced the winner of its garlic recipe contest. Two of the three finalists were fish recipes. The final recipe was for a hot sauce. Although the chefs and journalist reviewing the sauce ate it with chicken, the actual sauce is vegetarian! The chicken was not part of the sauce. In fact, the hostess on the radio this morning ate the sauce with a chip. Congratulations to William Maxwell of Vandalia, Missouri, for submitting the winning concoction!
