Cardiologist Chef Debunks Salt Myth
2012-01-06 15:58:00
Has the tide turned for salt in 2012? Salt faces regular demonization from the media, lawmakers, and food police, with the hyperbolic Center for Science in the Public Interest (CSPI) even calling it the “deadly white powder you already snort.†But as cardiologist-turned-chef Michael S. Fenster points out in The Atlantic, studies have not conclusively shown that a reduction in dietary sodium equates with a reduction in hypertension or its resulting effects. Fenster also notes that while this theory “makes for great slogans, off the cuff advice, and lazy recommendations,†it “also makes for poor publicly mandated policy.†Big Apple Mayor Michael Bloomberg wants sodium restrictions, and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is looking into regulation after a recommendation by the Institute of Medicine. Many regulators (self-proclaimed or otherwise) are aiming to reduce sodium consumption by 20%. The average American consumes about 3.4 grams per day, while curr...
REALITY CHECK: CHEF ROBLE & CO.
2012-01-02 06:07:00
I am no fan of the kitchen, so it only makes sense that I don't spend much time watching cooking shows. I mean, the Food Network gets NO action in my home. That's why I'm shocked that I've taken to Bravo's new show Chef Roblé & Co.  The show follows Chef Roblé Ali and the staff of his high-end New York catering company as they throw events for clients including Vanessa Williams and Kandi Burruss (Real Housewives of Atlanta).  Chef Roblé began working in the kitchen when he was in high school and went on to attend the Culinary Institute of America. He quickly advanced in the restaurant industry before starting his own business.  I wish that there were more positive reality shows like this. We need shows like Chef Roblé's to balance all the drama served up by various housewives and basketball wives. Catch the show every Sunday on Bravo at 10/9C.

Maxim Names Paula Deen Hottest Chef!
2011-10-13 18:00:00
Maxim has named Paula Deen the hottest TV chef! Take that Padama Lakshmi and Giada DeLaurentiis! Wow, I adore the heck out of Paula. I just love, love, love her food. Seriously, you can?t go wrong cause nothing taste bad with that much butter. Aside from that she is such a sweet southern lady, they just don?t make them like her these days. But to name her Maxim?s hottest TV chef was a bit of a shocker for me. Sure, she looks damn good for 64, but is she really the sexiest chef? Ok lets narrow it down – Giada DeLaurentiis is overrated and I hate the way she says spaghetti. Even her mother said it normally. Also he stuff is always weird and doesn?t taste that good. She doesn?t use as much butter Rachael Ray ? she is pretty hot but didn?t she already win this title for FHM? Padma Lakshmi ? nothing bad to say about her she is gorgeous. Giada came in on the list at No. 3, while “Top Chef’s” Padma Lakshmi, came in at No. 2. The men’s mag explains their choice...

20 Qs with Chef Francis Brennan of L2O
2011-06-08 15:31:00
I was a little intimidated to play 20 questions with Francis. I didn't find a lot of interviews just reviews and stories about the L20 fallout, but very little on the man in his own words. He's a quiet guy which can be interpreted many ways. When I walked in to the back of the L20 kitchen I saw him carrying a case of produce and knew we'd get along just fine. I'd never seen the back of the house and the kitchen is one of the prettiest I've ever walked through. After a quick tour, we set off for a quiet spot in the dining room. Note: Working at 3 star Michelin restaurants means you're always seeking perfection. About...

With only six chefs standing, Curtis puts them to the test with a twist on the classic Top Chef blindfold taste test. This time add nose plugs and ear phones. The Quick fire challenge winner gets $5K for their charity, but immunity is now off the table. Round one, Floyd bombs and is eliminated. Off with his head. Next 60 second round involves the sense of smell. Celina and Traci end up wearing the test and Traci is out. The following challenge involves touch. Hugh and Mary Sue ace the test, sending Naomi and Celina packing. For the finale, the sense of sound comes into play. Hugh takes the challenge and $5K. The task proved great chef or not, the...

2011-05-12 18:14:00
We join the seven remaining cheftestants and Curtis Stone to discover the Quickfire Challenge involves the kind of pricey ingredients middle class folk can only salivate over, much less afford. With their pallets wetted, the crew envisions their culinary dreams taking shape. Ah, but there is a catch, no surprise. They must beat Tom Collichio's record of eight minutes, 37 seconds. One dish on two plates within seven minutes. I can't even set up the coffee pot in that amount of time, but these guys are professionals and off they bolt. Naomi opts to sear foie gras, Hugh's humor emerges when he glances at her work, with a wish I were her moment. He's no longer super excited with...

2011-04-21 03:20:00
Our remaining chefs are treated to a Quickfire challenge that includes bugs. From crickets to scorpions, the cheftestants scratch their heads trying to create gourmet recipes. Just watching made me ill. Curtis meets up with husband/wife team Ruth England and Mykel Hawke from Discovery Channel's Man, Woman & Wild. The guest judges are stoked. Curtis, not so much. Who knew tempura fried nightcrawlers with elderflower and herb salad would work? Suvir's dish of Himalayan market salad is seen as a cop out. Included with the plate is a mini blow torch if you want to toast your own green hornworms. This is a bit confusing for the judges. They don't realize Suvir is Hindu and killing critters doesn't sit...

One down and 10 to go before the big prize is awarded. Last week Hugh was eliminated. Now John S. had to go due to an emergency, so he's out. But wait, Hugh gets to come back. Talk about a second chance. He promises to use a smaller salt shaker.  The Quickfire challenge is to make meatballs. The chefs must use a hand grinder to prepare their cuts of meat. They struggle with the grinders as the clock tick tocks away. Guest judge is recording artist Kalis, who also happens to be a trained chef in her own right. Hits and misses abound. In the wine room the contestants react to Kalis' criticisms. Ahhh, what does she know? They...

Mike Isabella and Richard Blais engage in a quick recap of Antonia Lofaso's demise. Mike played to every advantage the game gave him. He wanted her to pack her knives and go because as already admitted, he wants to go head to head with Richard. Mr. Blais on the other hand, hoped Mike would be gone. Interesting dynamic here. Lightheartedly, they each wish the other falls off a cliff. Padma and Tom show up to give the cheftestants the ultimate challenge. Create the restaurant of your dreams.

Antonia and Richard join him seeking the grand prize of $200K along with the holy-grail title of Top Chef.

'Top Chef All Stars' - Season 8 Episode 12 Recap: Island Bound
2011-03-03 18:58:00
  Down to the final five, the chefs quietly discuss Dale's exit and reflect upon their own demises during their perspective seasons. They are quickly coming up to the wire and each contestant sees the tasks ahead, not in terms of win/lose, but what the season's demands has already cost each of them. They continue to adjust to the distance from those they love, the beat downs, the high and mighty feelings, a true kitchen stew. Padma pops into the apartment and announces the chefs must head to the roof. Antonia is determined she'll be told to base jump from the building scrambling and egg. Now that's a visual! For the Quickfire challenge, the gang ferry off to Ellis Island,...

The contestants head to the kitchen to discover Paula Dean, the "queen of southern cooking." The Quick Fire challenge highlights deep-frying techniques. Tiffany is delighted and can feel that $5K prize burning a hole in her pocket. Dale, the greedy American goes for beef wrapped oysters. Antonia admits to her love of many things fried. She grabs for the shrimp and avocado for a fried salad. Mike decides to use the "oyster" portion of a chicken leg as a play on fried oysters. It seems he and Richard were discussing the dish earlier in the day and it stuck with him. Richard chooses to season mayonnaise, dip it in liquid nitrogen so it will coagulate and then deep fry...

  OMG. Cookies for Cookie Monster? This had to be the most hilarious Top Chef Quick Fire challenge yet. The chefs are to make their best cookie for the connoisseur of shortbread. The chefs race around the kitchen with Jim Henson muppets zipping at their heels. Richard is beside himself giddy. Antonia isn't happy with her presentation. She shouldn't fear because her goods are going to be woofed down and I doubt looks count.  Mike's almond and dried cherry cookies are like a party in Cookie Monster's mouth. Tiffany can barely contain her laughter at the tasting.  She used Thyme in her cookie. "How much Time?" Elmo quips. The ultimate winner of $5K is Dale. Antonia came in second with Elmo...

While it is obvious the tension is building, at least on camera no one has received a black eye. Ms.Padma greets the chefs with a fondue Quickfire challenge. They have 30 minutes to create and judge each other. Winner gets a three-day trip to Napa Valley. Antonia chooses a smoked salmon concoction, but Mike thinks fondue is cheesy and not in a good way.

It's fashion week in New York so the task is all about looks. Neither Padma nor Isaac will taste the dishes, but will judge on aesthetics alone. Immunity is on the table.

Richard knows Isaac is attached to the color black and chooses to go with black ice cream. Tiffany goes the nature route. Angelo's head spins round and round.

"Top Chef All Stars" Season 8 Episode 6 Recap: The Perfect Storm
2011-01-13 20:04:00
Oy! This week's show opens with Marcel's mini melt down. Seems this self proclaimed diva wanted to go all up in Dale's grill for winning the dim sum challenge. He accused Dale of making only eight plates for the judges, after which Dale sauntered out of the restaurant and grabbed a beer with Tom Colicchio. Um, ok. To Dale's credit he didn't whoop the tar out of that whiney little biotch. Apparently anger management classes do work. Tre summed it up eloquently. "I've noticed throughout the weeks that we've been here that Marcel is kind of an @$$hole." Yes Tre, we've noticed that, too.  Moving past the drama, the group heads directly to this week's elimination challenge. Greeted in...
Tandoor Chef - Yummy Indian Food Fast!

Tandoor Chef is part of a family?owned brand that prides itself on "presenting a meal sensation that?s rich in Indian culture and flavor, and is all?natural and sensational to experience."  I was surprised to discover it started in the 70s. When I started my review, I realized I had already tried the Naan bread to make pizza's.....then I discovered that the company has a lot of products from breads, to entrees, and even gluten free, vegan and vegetarian selections. I tested out several items.  Of course, I made my Naan Bread pizza the weekend.  I love that it can be for one person, or you can make several different kinds so everyone gets what they like.  It comes in a 4 pack.  My husband was at a basketball game, so I made a chicken, spinach, black bean pizza for myself and the kids. I also tested out several of the entrees for those "I don't feel like cooking" nights when the kids only want mac n cheese anyway.  My favorite was the Chicken ...

Dale Talde; Top Chef All Stars As the kitchen heats up so, too does season eight of Bravo's celebrated Top Chef All Stars. I had the opportunity to speak to Chef Dale Talde via telephone this week. His frank and lighthearted demeanor gives us a more detailed understanding of Dale's career along with his experience on Top Chef.  Born in 1978, Chef Dale first discovered the kitchen at age nine. Mom made fish head stew for dinner and this boy wanted nothing to do with it. Her advice: cook your own dinner. So he did - apple pancakes to be exact. Today, when he shows up for family get-togethers, it is an unspoken law that he will gravitate to...
"Top Chef All Stars" Episode 5 Recap: A day at the races
2011-01-06 07:02:00
Wow, so Top Chef is celebrating its 100th episode. Where does the time go? This Episode opens with 13 chefs remaining and via talking head moments begin to ever so gently tear into one another. Angelo suffers from chef Tourettes syndrome, Jamie didn't serve her food at the last challenge and slinked away. The pressure seems to be building. Today's Quickfire challenge brings in one of the country's premiere chefs. He'll make a dish and set the time that all contestants must meet. Who pops in - none other than Tom Colicchio, head judge. The expression on Mike's face is too rich for words, but he manages to push his eyeballs back into their sockets while Angelo takes a deep...
