“Secret Ingredients”

found on eG Forums

The “I Hate to Cook Book” sat on my mother’s bookshelf when I was a child. I have a first edition here, from 1960. Same dust cover. I remember it well. It sat there, and I looked at it, on that same bookshelf for years. I hated that book. I hated the “I Hate to Cook Book”.

It’s interesting for a passionate feminist foodie to admit the enemy– prepared food– was also a liberator.

Horse Chow

from Alimentum Online: Horse Chow By Donald Newlove

Few chefs enjoy cooking for themselves, or so it’s said. For those who would like true simplicity in preparing breakfast, may I suggest a dish that makes boiled oatmeal or even cornflakes tiring and overly sophisticated with their milk and sweeteners. My favorite breakfast when I’m not in Paris is a delicacy called horse chow.
