I don’t tell a lot of people this, but I’ve won a hot dog eating contest. While recording a podcast years ago, competitive eater Crazy Legs Conti taught me three different methods to break down the dogs, dipping the buns in water (soaked buns squish more easily). By the end of our lesson, I inhaled 3 hot dogs in 2 minutes, finishing just seconds before my coworker.
9 Drinks You Can DIY This Weekend, From Easy to Beer
Click the heart, it's called favoriting. Favorite the stuff you like. Save and organize all of the stuff you love in one place. The first drink I made myself was classic lemonade for—you guessed it—a neighborhood lemonade stand. My mom refused to buy a mix, insisting my sister and I use the oodles of lemons and sugar we had in our pantry. While my entrepreneurial efforts didn’t pay off (I think we used too much sugar), it sparked an interest in the kitchen sorcery of brewing my own drinks.
4 Things Brand Marketers Can Learn From Nonprofits
Mission-driven nonprofits and revenue-driven brands would appear to have different aims and strategies—but having spent five years working in the third sector, I’ve discovered that there’s more overlap than meets the eye. Both sectors rely on specialized teams and both rely heavily on marketing to get their message out there. In fact, I’ve found that there are four areas integral to the nonprofit experience that the for-profit world could learn from.
16 Chili Dishes for Those Chilly Nights
With beans, or without. Tomatoes or no. Meat or vegetarian. Like barbecue, tacos, or how to dress a hotdog, chili inspires many heated debates—there are as many recipes as there are cooks who make them. But variety (of chili) is the spice of life. And as temperatures dip, there's no better time to warm up with spicy stew. So no matter how you build your bowl (or even if you like chili as nacho or mac and cheese topper!), we have just the recipes to keep you warm and cozy.
10 Tips for Starting Your Own Cookbook Club
Click the heart, it's called favoriting. Favorite the stuff you like. Save and organize all of the stuff you love in one place. After grabbing yet another cookbook to bring upstairs at bedtime, I knew it was officially time to start a cookbook club. Reading a cookbook is similar to reading a novel (you are transported to another time and place, experience someone else’s story, and wake up inspired), and cookbook clubs are similar to regular book clubs.
Food among friends
The cookbook scene on-Island just got a whole lot tastier with the launch of cookbooks from two local authors, Susie Middleton and Sarah Waldman. To celebrate, Morrice Florist in Vineyard Haven hosted a cookbook panel with not only the authors, but their local photographers as well, Randi Baird and Elizabeth Cecil.
Apple Ring Pancakes
Most kids love pancakes, but drenching them in maple syrup and other sweet toppings can push the sugar content to unhealthy levels. This recipe solves the problem by incorporating fresh fruit: The apples become melty and extra sweet when they're cooked, which eliminates the need for syrup.
9 Dinners You Can Make on a Sheet Pan
9 Dinners You Can Make on a Sheet Pan After cooking dinner on a sheet pan, you'll be tempted to throw out all of your other pans, skillets, and pots. Kidding! We're kidding. Making soup in a sheet pan would be madness. But, in all seriousness, it's an easy way to cook for a crowd, or simply get dinner on the table without having to fuss with this and that and having to do a ton of dishes at the end of the night.
What You Need to Know to Make Any Sheet Pan Dinner
Save and organize all of the stuff you love in one place. Sheet pans excel at holding lots of food and therefore cooking for a crowd. What’s more, their short rim encourages airflow and, in turn, browning, which in the end equates to good, caramelized flavor. They’re a win-win. And while books have been written on the subject of sheet pan suppers, and Pinterest (and the web) is a source of endless inspiration, you can make a sheet pan supper however you like armed with just a little knowledge.
One-Dish Dinners You Can Prep Ahead, Brought to You By the Humble Sheet Pan
Move over Dutch ovens, skillets, and crock pots: There’s a new kid in town. Sheet pans, too, lend themselves perfectly to one pot (or in this case, one pan) meals—the heroes of weeknight dinners. Quick, delicious, and easy (in planning, preparing, and clean-up) sheet pan dinners can be built a million ways and are completely customizable to your family’s favorites.
