Niu rou mian (牛肉麵) is beef noodle soup

Rosół is Polish chicken noodle soup

Happy New Year

That is top tier

Right? I've pitched stories about clever pho (and Thai) restaurant names more times than I can count. It's so delightfully lighthearted

Alexandre Balthazar Laurent Grimod de La Reynière, (1758–1837) established modern food writing

He was a wealthy French shop owner, and theater and food critic who published Almanach des Gourmands, a gastronomic treatise, and one of the first food magazines - Journal des Gourmands et des Belles

Hannah Glasse (1708–1770) published The Art of Cookery Made Plain and Easy (with 972 recipes) in 1747 in England. It went through 40 edtions and was published in the US in 1805. It had the first curry recipe in an English cookbook and was the first to mention Yorkshire pudding in print

Michael W. Twitty is an award winning writer, culinary historian, the former Colonial Williamsburg Revolutionary in Residence, creator of Afroculinaria and the Southern Discomfort Tour and a food justice educator

His books include The Cooking Gene, Rice, and Kosher Soul

Pragyasundari Devi (1872 – 1950) was an Indian cookbook author and magazine editor. Her first book, Amish O Niramish Ahar, was published in 1902

Eliza Acton (1799 – 1859) was a British poet and cookbook author, who published Modern Cookery for Private Families in 1845

She's credited with being the first to list ingredient and include suggested cooking times. It included the first recipes in English for Brussels sprouts and spaghetti

Have you ever had Berthillon's rum raisin? It has the best raisins, and is probably 40% booze 😆

Elena Zelayeta (1898–1974) was a Mexican-American author known for "Elena's Famous Spanish" & "Mexican Recipes"

A chef and restauranteur, she lived in San Francisco

Zelayeta was the first Latina American with her own cooking show, called It's Fun To Eat with Elena, filmed after she went blind

She was pretty amazing. This doesn't even do her justice either!

Lena Richard (1893-1950) of New Orleans was a chef, author, and restaurateur. She graduated from the Fannie Farmer Cooking School in 1918 and opened her own cooking school in Louisiana

In 1949, she became the first Black woman to host a cooking show

Not exactly a hot take, but the *laziest,* most annoying TV character trait is having a woman have weird binge eating issues for laughs

Liz Lemon, Grace Adler, Fran Fine's mother, and Lesley Knope immediately come to mind.

Glad those are all pretty old shows

Bartolomeo Scappi (c. 1500 –1577) was an Italian chef from Lombardy. He authored Opera Dell'Arte del Cucinare, which was continually published from 1570 to 1643 and has the first known picture of a fork. An English translation was done in 2008

James H. Salisbury was an American physician. He introduced his eponymous dish of ground beef with gravy in 1888.

He created it for his low-carb fad diet, Beef and Hot Water Therapy for Healing and recommended eating Salisbury steak at least 3x's a day

Yay! (Follow me. I'm delicious.)

Fanny Cradock (1909–1994) was an English critic, wildly popular TV chef, repped the British Gas Co, wrote 30+ cookbooks and the "Bon Viveur" column for The Daily Telegraph from '50-'55
She was very camp and popularized pizza and shrimp cocktail in the UK

The melon flavored 7-Eleven brand 12 variety gummy bear is the greatest candy ever. Followed by chik-a-stik and that weird kosher for Passover marshmallow jelly chocolate whatnot.

If you have a frozen turkey, move it to the refrigerator today

Love this. I volunteered there, teaching seed to table classes for kids for a few years. Such a special place.

That order was a first for me

I'm ready for a stay-at-home, dark, cold, rainy day in LA

Translation: I'm craving beef bourguignon

I don't think I have the energy to start over on another platform. I'll peek at this sometimes to see if I'm making a mistake, but until then, I'm on those other platforms with food content

So the schtick here is that there is no algorithm?

Hi!!!! I was just looking up how to search for starter packs. Would love an invite. (Is that the right term?) Not sure about this platform.

So, I guess this is the new spot? If so, it means I'm dropping Discord. Oh, wait, I never used that either.

Is this thing on?

I guess I'm on here too now
