Breakfast Links Interview

May 17, 2008

It was a busy week; I was waiting to hear if I had an interview for an internship while trying to buy my first suit. I ended up getting a suit and having the interview on Friday. I think it went pretty well, so I will hopefully know in a couple weeks if they are offering me a spot or not.

On the culinary side of things, I tried the no-knead bread again yesterday which turned out better. It still needs some tweaking, but it was certainly more successful (and delicious). I am also grilling lamb today again with the recipe we tried at Christmas, so that will be good.

Links? Links.

Recipe of the Week

Cinnamon Rolls - Who doesn’t love cinnamon rolls? I need to learn how to make these, because there isn’t any better breakfast on a weekend morning.

• Amanda at Mrs. W’s Kitchen has some great tips for cooking on a budget with increasing food prices. I like the idea of implementing a meatless meal day and using the library for cookbooks.
• A very close runner up to recipe of the week, Katy at Sugarlaws has a recipe for rhubarb ice cream. I like her willingness to try a non-standard flavor for ice cream. Also, I am looking for a good ice cream recipe that doesn’t produce a grainy finish - the result from the one time I tried it.
• The Amateur Gourmet tries out a ceramic knife and loves it, although it is not quite as versatile as a high-carbon steel knife.
• Ben at What’s Cooking? has a great post on the possible negative health side effects of cooking with extra-virgin olive oil. It sounds like if you should keep it under its smoking point and you’ll be safe.
• Last, Start Cooking has a thorough post on the different types of salad greens.

Have a great rest of your Saturday.
