Hand-Smashed Blue Cheese Dip with Stilton
|
Some day I’ll write a book about dinner parties, assuming books still exist and AI hasn’t cast writers into outer space like HAL in 2001: A Space Odyssey. In that book, I’ll talk about balancing out a meal; how if you have a heavy main course, you’ll want a lighter first course, and a refreshing…

Gourmet Grilled Cheese Night
Here in L.A., there are restaurants that do a gourmet grilled cheese night.

Michael Symon’s Spicy Tomato & Blue Cheese Soup
At the end of yesterday’s video podcast with Michael Symon, you may have heard me sheepishly express doubt about adding blue cheese to tomato soup. For some reason, I thought the result would be grainy and gloppy and just kind of gross. Instead, this tomato soup was absolutely the best tomato soup I’ve ever had–and…
