"bio": "I am a writer, editor, mother of twins, and enthusiastic home cook. I was raised by an Italian-American mother who, in the 1970s, grew her own basil (because she couldn’t find any in the local grocery stores), zucchini (for those delicious flowers), and tomatoes (because the ones in the store tasted like “a potato”). My mom taught us to love all kinds of food and revere high-quality ingredients. I am now trying to follow in my mother’s footsteps and am on a mission to help my daughters become adventurous eaters who have a healthy respect for seasonal food raised locally. My daughters and I grow vegetables and go to the farmers’ market. We also love to shop at Piedmont Grocery and Trader Joe’s. When I’m not hanging out with my daughters or cooking, I like to contribute to cookbooks (including Williams-Sonoma’s Food Made Fast and Foods of the World series), work as an editor, and write about food for \u003cstrong>Bay Area Bites\u003c/strong> and \u003cstrong>Denise's Kitchen\u003c/strong>. My food inspirations are M.F.K Fisher, Julia Child, and Alice Waters — three fabulous women who encompass everything I love about food.",

Also, a barrel of cheese balls never ends well. \r\n\r\nStephanie has been known to choose her company based on how much they can pack it down. Ability to endure cramped quarters, sketchy back alleys, and uncharted paths to seek out that special dish is also a plus in her book. If you fit the criteria, drop a note.

The better news is that your patience will be rewarded with one of the best \u003cstrong>Vietnamese Sandwiches\u003c/strong> in town. Crusty, crackly French bread, slathered with mayo and a mystery meat sauce (tastes better than it sounds), stuffed full of meat, pate, pickled carrots and onion, cilantro and jalapeno.

They keep a good stock of authentic Vietnamese snacks and baked goods, but my favorite reason to walk into Lee's is the expansive beverage selection.

But there are also more exotic offerings like \u003cstrong>Rainbow Drink (\u003cem>Chè Ba Màu\u003c/em>)\u003c/strong>, a sweet, icy, colorful drink made with red azuki beans, a green pandan jelly, and buttery coconut milk. And, if you see a container of what looks like tadpoles sitting innocently next to the bottled water, don't freak out, it's just \u003ca href=\"http://alteats.files.wordpress.com/2010/05/img_9076.jpg\">Pennyworth Drink\u003c/a> made with basil seeds. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>6) Pork Belly (Le Colonial)\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\n\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/01/le-colonial-2.jpg\" alt=\"Thit Kho Chien, Le Colonial\" title=\"Thit Kho Chien, Le Colonial\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-22366\">\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>Thit Kho Chien, Le Colonial\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sumptuous and elegant, you feel instantly transported to 1920's French Vietnam when you walk into the breezy dining room of \u003ca href=\"http://blogs.kqed.org/checkplease/2006/10/26/le-colonial-restaurant-info/\">Le Colonial\u003c/a>.

It is a confit of \u003cstrong>Berkshire Pork Belly\u003c/strong> that is masterfully prepared -- with a delicately crispy, caramelized crust, and a melt in your mouth texture. It is served with pickled bok choy, Hosui pear and quail egg segments, and drizzled with savory caramel sauce and truffle oil. Simply divine. In celebration of Tet, Le Colonial will be featuring some special dishes on Thursday 2/3. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Related Story from KQED Radio News:\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>\u003cstrong>Vietnamese-Americans Celebrate Lunar New Year\u003c/strong>\u003c/em>\u003cbr>\nThis week marks the most important holiday of the year for Vietnamese-Americans.

The better news is that your patience will be rewarded with one of the best \u003cstrong>Vietnamese Sandwiches\u003c/strong> in town. Crusty, crackly French bread, slathered with mayo and a mystery meat sauce (tastes better than it sounds), stuffed full of meat, pate, pickled carrots and onion, cilantro and jalapeno. You can have your \u003cstrong>Bahn Mi\u003c/strong> made with grilled pork, chicken, \"fanci\" (steamed) pork, cold cuts, tofu, or the cult favorite, \u003cstrong>meatballs\u003c/strong> (The \u003cstrong>Xiu Mai Bahn Mi\u003c/strong>). At prices ranging from $3.50 to $4.25, this is one delicious steal of a meal. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>5) Vietnamese Drinks (Lee's Sandwiches)\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\n\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/01/saigon-1.jpg\" alt=\"Rainbow Drink (Chè Ba Màu), Lee's Sandwiches \" title=\"Rainbow Drink (Chè Ba Màu), Lee's Sandwiches \" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-22368\">\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>Rainbow Drink (Chè Ba Màu), Lee's Sandwiches \u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The \u003ca href=\"http://lickmyspoon.com/sfeats/picnic-in-the-park-saigon-style/\">Lee's Sandwiches\u003c/a> on Larkin Street is part Vietnamese fast food, part mini-mart. They keep a good stock of authentic Vietnamese snacks and baked goods, but my favorite reason to walk into Lee's is the expansive beverage selection. There is \u003ca href=\"http://lickmyspoon.com/foodmusings/vietnamese-coffee-in-pursuit-of-the-perfect-cup-plus-giveaway/\">Vietnamese Iced Coffee\u003c/a> (café sua dá) of course, dripped strong, mixed with sweetened condensed milk, and poured over crushed ice. But there are also more exotic offerings like \u003cstrong>Rainbow Drink (\u003cem>Chè Ba Màu\u003c/em>)\u003c/strong>, a sweet, icy, colorful drink made with red azuki beans, a green pandan jelly, and buttery coconut milk. And, if you see a container of what looks like tadpoles sitting innocently next to the bottled water, don't freak out, it's just \u003ca href=\"http://alteats.files.wordpress.com/2010/05/img_9076.jpg\">Pennyworth Drink\u003c/a> made with basil seeds. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>6) Pork Belly (Le Colonial)\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\n\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/01/le-colonial-2.jpg\" alt=\"Thit Kho Chien, Le Colonial\" title=\"Thit Kho Chien, Le Colonial\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-22366\">\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>Thit Kho Chien, Le Colonial\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sumptuous and elegant, you feel instantly transported to 1920's French Vietnam when you walk into the breezy dining room of \u003ca href=\"http://blogs.kqed.org/checkplease/2006/10/26/le-colonial-restaurant-info/\">Le Colonial\u003c/a>. Chef Joe Villanueva's \u003cstrong>Thit Kho Chien\u003c/strong> is one of the best pork belly dishes I've ever tasted. It is a confit of \u003cstrong>Berkshire Pork Belly\u003c/strong> that is masterfully prepared -- with a delicately crispy, caramelized crust, and a melt in your mouth texture. It is served with pickled bok choy, Hosui pear and quail egg segments, and drizzled with savory caramel sauce and truffle oil. Simply divine.

What's there not to like? Crispy golden skin. Juicy tender meat. Finger-lickin' goodness. Apparently, the restaurants of the Bay Area seem to agree. Fried chicken is all the rage, and everyone seems to have a riff on this comfort food favorite: \u003ca href=\"http://www.farmerbrownsf.com/\">Farmer Brown\u003c/a> serves it \u003ca href=\"http://blogs.kqed.org/checkplease/2009/03/27/check-please-bay-area-season-4-episode-2-402/\">classic Southern-style\u003c/a>, with hamhock greens and mac n' cheese; \u003ca href=\"http://www.namusf.com/\">Namu\u003c/a> makes it Korean Fried Chicken with spicy slaw and pickled daikon; \u003ca href=\"http://www.zerozerosf.com/\">Zero Zero\u003c/a> goes thighs-only for its gussied up Chicken and Semolina Waffles with Chestnut Honey Butter; \u003ca href=\"http://thefrontporchsf.com/\">Front Porch\u003c/a> uses a cornmeal crust and serves it in a popcorn bucket.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Once you've set upon the path to finding the \"Best Fried Chicken\" it's a quest that can easily obsess. And, it has its hazards…you know, it's not quite as artery-friendly as say, a \"Best Salad\" quest. By no means have I sampled it all -- for example, I have yet to try \u003ca href=\"http://casaorinda.net/\">Casa Orinda's\u003c/a> fried chicken, which \u003ca href=\"http://insidescoopsf.sfgate.com/michaelbauer/2008/09/08/the-best-fried-chicken-so-far/\">Michael Bauer\u003c/a> swears by, and I'm still dying to try \u003ca href=\"http://blogs.kqed.org/checkplease/2010/05/05/brown-sugar-kitchen-restaurant-info/\">Brown Sugar Kitchen's\u003c/a> Chicken & Waffles -- however, I have taste-tested my fair share, and well, someone should benefit from my \"research.\" \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Best Destination Fried Chicken Orgy: Ad Hoc (Yountville, Napa)\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\n\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/01/ad-hoc-1.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/01/ad-hoc-1.jpg\" alt=\"Fried Chicken Night, Ad Hoc\" title=\"Fried Chicken Night, Ad Hoc\" width=\"333\" height=\"500\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-22133\">\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>Fried Chicken Night, Ad Hoc\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The greatness of this fried chicken has taken on almost mythical proportions, with cult followers calling \u003cstrong>Fried Chicken Night\u003c/strong> at \u003ca href=\"http://www.adhocrestaurant.com/\">Ad Hoc\u003c/a> a religious experience. Is it as good as everyone says? In one word: yes. One satisfying bite into a hunk of their \u003cstrong>Buttermilk Fried Chicken\u003c/strong> and you'll be born again. It's not just that the skin is perfectly crunchy and substantial, or that the brined meat is juicy and flavorful, or that it all comes family-style in a big oversized bowl brimming with indulgence. At Ad Hoc, it's the sum of all the parts that make this a destination dining experience. Your entire meal is orchestrated without the slightest bit of effort from you. Even the drive up to Napa adds to the delicious escapism of the evening.

The skin on Little Skillet's chicken is on the thinner side if you're into that. I have found that that the juiciness level can be inconsistent -- I've had the most luck during peak hours. On a sunny day, that concrete loading platform across from Little Skillet's order window (a.k.a. their outdoor \"seating\" area) is where I want to be -- sweet and savory on my tongue, and maple syrup dribbling down my chin. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Best Home-style Fried Chicken: Firefly (Noe Valley, SF) \u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\n\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/01/firefly-1.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/01/firefly-1.jpg\" alt=\"Fried Chicken of Your Dreams, Firefly\" title=\"Fried Chicken of Your Dreams, Firefly\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-22135\">\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>Fried Chicken of Your Dreams, Firefly\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.fireflysf.com/\">Firefly\u003c/a> knows how to do homey.

Yes, that is what it's really called. The chicken is tender and well-seasoned, and the skin has that magic quality of sticking to the meat so that you get a mouthful of crunchy goodness in each bite.

The line will likely be out the door, if the wait is really long, the kind folks at Bakesale Betty's have been known to bring out samples of their heavenly, chewy cookies. But I digress. The star of the show is this gorgeous hunk of a sandwich made with two generous pieces of chicken breast, double-dredged and fried, topped with a spicy slaw of cabbage, red onion, roughly chopped parsley, and a Dijon mustard-red wine vinaigrette (the key: no mayo).

What's there not to like? Crispy golden skin. Juicy tender meat. Finger-lickin' goodness. Apparently, the restaurants of the Bay Area seem to agree. Fried chicken is all the rage, and everyone seems to have a riff on this comfort food favorite: \u003ca href=\"http://www.farmerbrownsf.com/\">Farmer Brown\u003c/a> serves it \u003ca href=\"http://blogs.kqed.org/checkplease/2009/03/27/check-please-bay-area-season-4-episode-2-402/\">classic Southern-style\u003c/a>, with hamhock greens and mac n' cheese; \u003ca href=\"http://www.namusf.com/\">Namu\u003c/a> makes it Korean Fried Chicken with spicy slaw and pickled daikon; \u003ca href=\"http://www.zerozerosf.com/\">Zero Zero\u003c/a> goes thighs-only for its gussied up Chicken and Semolina Waffles with Chestnut Honey Butter; \u003ca href=\"http://thefrontporchsf.com/\">Front Porch\u003c/a> uses a cornmeal crust and serves it in a popcorn bucket.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Once you've set upon the path to finding the \"Best Fried Chicken\" it's a quest that can easily obsess. And, it has its hazards…you know, it's not quite as artery-friendly as say, a \"Best Salad\" quest.

Is it as good as everyone says? In one word: yes. One satisfying bite into a hunk of their \u003cstrong>Buttermilk Fried Chicken\u003c/strong> and you'll be born again. It's not just that the skin is perfectly crunchy and substantial, or that the brined meat is juicy and flavorful, or that it all comes family-style in a big oversized bowl brimming with indulgence. At Ad Hoc, it's the sum of all the parts that make this a destination dining experience. Your entire meal is orchestrated without the slightest bit of effort from you. Even the drive up to Napa adds to the delicious escapism of the evening.

The skin on Little Skillet's chicken is on the thinner side if you're into that. I have found that that the juiciness level can be inconsistent -- I've had the most luck during peak hours. On a sunny day, that concrete loading platform across from Little Skillet's order window (a.k.a. their outdoor \"seating\" area) is where I want to be -- sweet and savory on my tongue, and maple syrup dribbling down my chin. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Best Home-style Fried Chicken: Firefly (Noe Valley, SF) \u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\n\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/01/firefly-1.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/01/firefly-1.jpg\" alt=\"Fried Chicken of Your Dreams, Firefly\" title=\"Fried Chicken of Your Dreams, Firefly\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-22135\">\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n\u003cem>Fried Chicken of Your Dreams, Firefly\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.fireflysf.com/\">Firefly\u003c/a> knows how to do homey.

The star of the show is this gorgeous hunk of a sandwich made with two generous pieces of chicken breast, double-dredged and fried, topped with a spicy slaw of cabbage, red onion, roughly chopped parsley, and a Dijon mustard-red wine vinaigrette (the key: no mayo). It's all stuffed in between an Acme torpedo roll and quickly wrapped up before it has a chance to escape.

Maybe you have a food allergy, maybe you have special health needs that your regular diet just isn't meeting, or maybe you just wanting more exciting than the status quo. Regardless of your reasons for upgrading your grain options, you've got an entire rainbow of whole grains to choose from besides rice and wheat.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Take, for example, the humble \u003ca href=\"http://chetday.com/millet.html\" title=\"What is millet\">millet\u003c/a>. Often thought of as only bird seed, millet is actually very much edible by humans. Mentioned in the Bible, people have been eating millet for many thousands of years in countries such as China, India, and Africa. What's so great about \u003ca href=\"http://www.wasabimon.com/archive/millet-recipe/\" title=\"Millet Recipe\" target=\"_blank\">millet\u003c/a>? Well, first of all, it's not acid-forming and is known for being easy to digest, so those who deal with any number of digestive ailments can usually enjoy millet without aggravating their GI.

Maybe you have a food allergy, maybe you have special health needs that your regular diet just isn't meeting, or maybe you just wanting more exciting than the status quo. Regardless of your reasons for upgrading your grain options, you've got an entire rainbow of whole grains to choose from besides rice and wheat.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Take, for example, the humble \u003ca href=\"http://chetday.com/millet.html\" title=\"What is millet\">millet\u003c/a>.

Well, first of all, it's not acid-forming and is known for being easy to digest, so those who deal with any number of digestive ailments can usually enjoy millet without aggravating their GI. Taste-wise, Millet is mildly sweet with a nutty flavor and contains many beneficial nutrients, such as protein, fiber, B-vitamins, iron, magnesium, potassium, and more.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Another alternative grain you might consider is \u003ca href=\"http://chetday.com/quinoa.html\" title=\"What is quinoa\">quinoa\u003c/a> (pronounced KEEN-wah).

Is that you? Yes, despite the last few days' balmy temperatures, the winter sniffles, sneezes, and sore throats are here, and with them come the homemade remedies to cure them. First up, of course, is a daily shot of \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2010/10/24/fire-cider/\">Fire Cider\u003c/a>, if you took my advice and made a batch back in October just for this very moment. I must say, having taking my first dose last week during my own star turns as Sneezey and Dopey, that it's is not for the faint of palate. (Whiskey chaser: a very good idea.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What you need next is something hot and steamy to warm you up, inside and out. Got a backyard Meyer lemon hookup? Then hot lemonade will soothe you. Squeeze the juice of a couple of lemons into a mug. Stir in a couple tablespoons of honey and add a cinnamon stick. Slice up another lemon and drop the slices into the mug. Top with hot water, stir, and sip, adding more honey if needed. (Plus, perhaps, a tot of rum to help you sleep.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And then, bring out the big guns. Steph's Spicy Soup, as it's known around these parts, is inspired by tom yum goong, the clear, spicy-sour soup found on every Thai menu (no, not tom kai gai, the coconutty one everyone but me loves, but the other one). It started out based on the tom yum goong recipe in \u003ca href=\"http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0399510338/kqedorg-20\">The Original Thai Cookbook\u003c/a> by Jennifer Brennan, but has since evolved into a freewheeling kind of broth whose only constant characteristic is that it's very spicy and very sour, and will absolutely clear your sinuses and make you feel magically better. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Thai red chile paste, available in little glass jars in the Asian section of most supermarkets, is a fabulous condiment that lasts forever and zings up just about anything. I use it for this soup more than anything, but it's an excellent thing to have on hand. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As Laurie Colwin writes in \u003ca href=\"http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0060955317/kqedorg-20\">More Home Cooking\u003c/a>, \"I do not recommend this to anyone who does not like things\u003cem> hot.\u003c/em> This stuff is \u003cem>fire. \u003c/em>It is also delicious and a surefire cure for colds, flu, and general weakness.\" She then goes on to say she only uses it one way, adding a tablespoonful to a quart of chicken stock, the juice of 2 lemons, some jasmine rice and scallions.

Is that you? Yes, despite the last few days' balmy temperatures, the winter sniffles, sneezes, and sore throats are here, and with them come the homemade remedies to cure them. First up, of course, is a daily shot of \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2010/10/24/fire-cider/\">Fire Cider\u003c/a>, if you took my advice and made a batch back in October just for this very moment.

(Whiskey chaser: a very good idea.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What you need next is something hot and steamy to warm you up, inside and out. Got a backyard Meyer lemon hookup? Then hot lemonade will soothe you. Squeeze the juice of a couple of lemons into a mug. Stir in a couple tablespoons of honey and add a cinnamon stick. Slice up another lemon and drop the slices into the mug. Top with hot water, stir, and sip, adding more honey if needed.

This doesn't mean I'm dieting -- as I'm a miserable failure at all diets. Tell me I can't eat butter and I'll day dream incessantly about buttered toast. No, in my world, being healthier means trying to eat more whole grains and vegetables, which usually isn't a problem as I love both.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So to start off my new year, I vowed to make and eat more steel-cut oats. Steel-cut oats are the actual oat grain buds (or groats) that have been cut into two or three pieces by steel blades. Unlike their flat rolled oat cousins, they plump up when you cook them, much like rice or \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2010/03/04/wheat-berries/\">wheat berries\u003c/a>. And although they can take 30-40 minutes to cook, the earthy nutty flavors and satisfying chewy texture are worth the wait. But waiting a half hour or more for your breakfast to cook can cramp your weekday morning routine. This is why I try to \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2005/03/05/steel-cut-my-oats/\">make a large batch of steel-cut oats on the weekend\u003c/a>. You can also purchase precooked steel-cut oats at Trader Joe's (in the freezer section).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So what do you do with the oats once they're cooked? Eating them with brown sugar or honey plus a handful of nuts and/or dried fruit is a great and simple breakfast. If you're avoiding sugar, just use cooked apples or pears, which add deep fruity undertones. But if you want something really special, try baking with your precooked steel-cut oats. For years I've made \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2008/10/04/nut-and-fruit-steel-cut-oatcakes-strawberry-oat-squares/\">Nut and Fruit Oatcakes and Strawberry Oat Squares\u003c/a>. This week, however, I tried something slightly different and loved it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the mood for something a little lighter and airier, I decided to make steel-cut oat muffins. Much like my oatcakes and oat squares, I started with a base of steel-cut oats, flour and butter. Yet unlike those baked treats, I used a little less butter and instead added in some buttermilk (which is naturally lowfat) for added tangy flavor and to moisten things up a bit. For a burst of sweetness, I nestled some cherry jam into each muffin (being sure to include at least one cherry in each). Hot out of the oven, the muffins smelled and tasted a bit like cherry pie. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So if you're looking for a heart-healthy breakfast that tastes like an indulgence, or simply another way to use your leftover steel cut oats, try some jammy oat muffins.

The new darlings of the moment are Indian and Korean foods.

Items like a black sesame candy, which is a popular snack in China, took an American spin by getting a good coating of dark chocolate, courtesy of the folks at \u003ca href=\"http://www.bissingers.com/\">Bissinger’s\u003c/a>. And rice crackers and candies are usually something you’ll find at a typical Asian market, but vendors were trying to get them into the American mainstream.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>Tea\u003c/strong> is still the hot commodity as far as beverages go, but gone are the white and green tea infusions. This year I saw a plethora of traditional herbal teas fused with fruit flavors to create unusual and creative tea combos like Blackcurrant and Cardamom, Milk Oolong and Apricot and Honey from the folks at Novato’s \u003ca href=\"http://www.republicoftea.com/\">Republic of Tea\u003c/a>, as well as more infusions like Chamomile and Citrus and Organic Café Orange from the San Rafael company, \u003ca href=\"http://www.mightyleaf.com/\">Mighty Leaf\u003c/a>. \u003c/li>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/01/republic-tea500.jpg\" alt=\"The Republic of Tea\" title=\"The Republic of Tea\" width=\"500\" height=\"392\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-21794\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>Candy\u003c/strong> is a trend that will NEVER go away.

First off, it's made from citrus, traditionally oranges but potentially any kind or combination of citrus fruit, from Rangpur limes to grapefruits. Unlike jelly, made from juice only, or jam, made from crushed fruit (or fruits) with all their juice, marmalade is made from the juice, pulp, and peel of citrus fruits, cooked with sugar and (usually) water. The peel may not always be visible in the finished product (it can be strained out for clarity after cooking), but the fragrant oils in the peel are what gives marmalade its unique flavor. Without peel, you'd just have orange jelly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As noted earlier, you can make marmalade with just about any citrus fruit. But true-blue British marmalade lovers know that the most classic marmalade is made from just one fruit: the Seville orange, a knobbly, seedy, green-patched fruit cultivated not for its scant and sour juice but for its ravishingly aromatic peel. These Spanish-born oranges, which make a marmalade of rich complexity, were for a long time the only oranges used for marmalade in Britain.

Unless they work for an orchard specializing in odd varieties of citrus, like Buddha's Hand or bergamot, few farmers' market sellers will have any idea what a Seville orange is. Just asking for Sevilles, or for good marmalade oranges, isn't enough; sellers are in the business of selling, and the easiest way to deal with a customer's weird request is simply to sell her whatever's already on the table, be it a navel or a satsuma. Currently, both \u003ca href=\"http://www.berkeleybowl.com\">Berkeley Bowl\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"http://biritemarket.com/produce/the-citrus-bomb-has-exploded/\">Bi-Rite Market\u003c/a> have Seville oranges for sale, for $1.69/lb and $3.99/lb, respectively.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you make jam on any kind of a regular basis, you should already have \u003cstrong>the basic gear:\u003c/strong> a scale, a wide-mouth funnel, a jar lifter, a bunch of canning jars, and a wide, heavy pot for cooking. If not, make the small investment and go to the hardware store and at least get the scale and the jar lifter. Trying to wrestle slippery hot jars in and out of a potful of boiling water with a pair of tongs is a crazy-making endeavor, trust me. And to measure fruit and sugar accurately, you really do need a small, preferably digital kitchen scale, available at any well-stocked kitchen-supply or hardware store.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Something else to know about marmalade:\u003c/strong> sometimes, you do everything right, and it doesn't seem to gel up. Don't despair, and don't cook it to death trying to get it to thicken. Once you've added the sugar, cooking it longer (say, more than an hour) won't always give you better results. Overly long cooking can break down the pectin and/or caramelize the sugar, giving a heavier, darker taste that's not so bright and citrusy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If everything else about it seems right, jar it up and put it away for a week or two. I've had this happen to me--imagining that I'll have to re-open the jars and try boiling down the whole mess a second time--only to find that, left to its own devices for a while, the marmalade has gelled up perfectly all by itself. It happens. So, don't despair right away. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Seville Orange Marmalade\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nParticularly heavenly with hot tea and toast made from last year's recipe for \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2010/01/09/easy-multi-grain-bread-draft/\">Easy Multi-Grain Bread\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>\u003cstrong>Makes:\u003c/strong> 8 half-pint jars\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ingredients:\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\n3 lbs Seville oranges, approximately 8-10 oranges\u003cbr>\n2 lemons\u003cbr>\n2 quarts plus 1 cup water\u003cbr>\n3 lbs granulated sugar, preferably the pale-blond, organic kind\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cstrong>Special Equipment:\u003c/strong>\n\u003cli>small muslin jelly bag or 8\"x8\" doubled square of cheesecloth\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>wide-mouth funnel\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>jar-lifting tongs\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>8 half-pint canning jars or 4 pint canning jars, with metal rings and flat lids\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>a wide, heavy, non-reactive pot, such as copper, stainless steel, or enameled cast iron\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>a tall, deep pot\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>candy thermometer (optional)\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>a few saucers, in the freezer\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Preparation:\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>1. Wash oranges and lemons well. Halve fruit and squeeze juice into a bowl. Pour the juice through a strainer, and drop the seeds into a separate bowl.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>2. Using your fingers, and possibly a serrated-edged grapefruit spoon if necessary, pull out the remaining pulp, seeds, and membrane from inside the fruit halves. Using the spoon, scrape out as much white pith from the inside of the fruit halves as you can. Put the pulp, seeds, membrane and pith into the bowl of seeds.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>3. Cut the now-scraped halves into quarters. If you have a food processor, shred the quarters using the slicing disk. Otherwise, use a mandoline or a very sharp knife to slice the peel into fine strips.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>4. Scoop the pulp, pith, and seeds into a muslin bag or a square of cheesecloth. Tie the bag shut, or knot the pointed ends of the cheesecloth square together firmly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/01/marmalade-2-500.jpg\" alt=\"Simmering the peel to make marmalade\" title=\"Simmering the peel to make marmalade\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-21645\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>5. Pour the juice, water, and shredded peel into a large, heavy pot. Add the bag of pulp. Bring to a simmer over medium-low heat. Cover and let simmer gently for about an hour, until peel is very tender.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>6. Remove pot from heat. Lift out bag, put it in a bowl and let cool for 15 or 20 minutes, until it can be comfortably handled.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>7. While bag is cooling, add sugar to pot, stirring until dissolved and mixture is clear.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>8. When bag is cool enough to handle, hold bag over the pot and squeeze firmly to get all the liquid out. Yes, it will feel slimy; this is a good thing. That slimy-feeling stuff is the natural pectin present in the seeds and membranes, and it's what will make your marmalade gel.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/01/marmalade-3-500.jpg\" alt=\"Marmalade ready to be jarred\" title=\"Marmalade ready to be jarred\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-21648\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>9. Bring pot to a fierce boil, stirring frequently to make sure it doesn't burn or stick. It should reach the setting point in about 20-30 minutes. Visually, it should look dark amber in color, with a maple-syrupy consistency. The peels should look thinned down and translucent. \u003c/p>\n\u003cul>To check the set:\n\u003cli>Use a candy thermometer. The setting point should be reached around 220 degrees F. Or,\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Remove pot from heat. Take a saucer out of the freezer and drop a spoonful onto the saucer. Return it to the freezer for a minute or two. Push the spoonful of marmalade with your finger. If it feels like warm honey and sets in one place rather than running all over the saucer, it's done. If not, return pot to heat and cook, stirring, for a few more minutes, then test again. Don't expect it to be as thick as store-bought marmalade at this point; it won't fully gel up until cold. \u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>10. Let the marmalade sit for 30 minutes, in order to keep all the peel from floating up to the top of the jars. Meanwhile, fill a large, deep pot with hot water. Sink jars into the water--they should be covered by at least an inch. Bring to a boil and simmer for 10 minutes to sterilize jars.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>11. Lift jars out of the pot. Using a ladle and a wide-mouthed funnel, fill jars to within 1/4\" inch of the rim. Wipe rim with a wet paper towel or clean dish towel dipped in hot water. Top with flat lid. Screw on ring finger-tight.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>12. Replace jars in pot of hot water. Bring pot to a boil and simmer for 8 minutes. Cover a tray or nearby counter with a clean, dry dishtowel. Lift jars out of hot water and let cool completely on towel. \u003cstrong>Don't disturb the jars while they're cooling. \u003c/strong>As they cool, you should hear a sharp popping noise from each jar as it seals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>13. When jars are completely cool, check lids for seal by pressing in the middle of lid. Lid should not move. If lid pops up and down, it didn't seal. Store any unsealed jars in the refrigerator and eat within a month.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>14. Loosen rings and wipe off any accumulated moisture. Replace rings, if desired, and store sealed jars in a cool, dry, dark place. Once opened, store in the refrigerator and eat within a month. \u003c/p>\n\n",

Overly long cooking can break down the pectin and/or caramelize the sugar, giving a heavier, darker taste that's not so bright and citrusy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If everything else about it seems right, jar it up and put it away for a week or two. I've had this happen to me--imagining that I'll have to re-open the jars and try boiling down the whole mess a second time--only to find that, left to its own devices for a while, the marmalade has gelled up perfectly all by itself. It happens. So, don't despair right away. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Seville Orange Marmalade\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nParticularly heavenly with hot tea and toast made from last year's recipe for \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/2010/01/09/easy-multi-grain-bread-draft/\">Easy Multi-Grain Bread\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>\u003cstrong>Makes:\u003c/strong> 8 half-pint jars\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Ingredients:\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\n3 lbs Seville oranges, approximately 8-10 oranges\u003cbr>\n2 lemons\u003cbr>\n2 quarts plus 1 cup water\u003cbr>\n3 lbs granulated sugar, preferably the pale-blond, organic kind\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cstrong>Special Equipment:\u003c/strong>\n\u003cli>small muslin jelly bag or 8\"x8\" doubled square of cheesecloth\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>wide-mouth funnel\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>jar-lifting tongs\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>8 half-pint canning jars or 4 pint canning jars, with metal rings and flat lids\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>a wide, heavy, non-reactive pot, such as copper, stainless steel, or enameled cast iron\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>a tall, deep pot\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>candy thermometer (optional)\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>a few saucers, in the freezer\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Preparation:\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>1. Wash oranges and lemons well. Halve fruit and squeeze juice into a bowl. Pour the juice through a strainer, and drop the seeds into a separate bowl.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>2. Using your fingers, and possibly a serrated-edged grapefruit spoon if necessary, pull out the remaining pulp, seeds, and membrane from inside the fruit halves. Using the spoon, scrape out as much white pith from the inside of the fruit halves as you can. Put the pulp, seeds, membrane and pith into the bowl of seeds.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>3. Cut the now-scraped halves into quarters. If you have a food processor, shred the quarters using the slicing disk. Otherwise, use a mandoline or a very sharp knife to slice the peel into fine strips.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>4. Scoop the pulp, pith, and seeds into a muslin bag or a square of cheesecloth. Tie the bag shut, or knot the pointed ends of the cheesecloth square together firmly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/01/marmalade-2-500.jpg\" alt=\"Simmering the peel to make marmalade\" title=\"Simmering the peel to make marmalade\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-21645\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>5. Pour the juice, water, and shredded peel into a large, heavy pot. Add the bag of pulp. Bring to a simmer over medium-low heat. Cover and let simmer gently for about an hour, until peel is very tender.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>6. Remove pot from heat. Lift out bag, put it in a bowl and let cool for 15 or 20 minutes, until it can be comfortably handled.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>7. While bag is cooling, add sugar to pot, stirring until dissolved and mixture is clear.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>8. When bag is cool enough to handle, hold bag over the pot and squeeze firmly to get all the liquid out. Yes, it will feel slimy; this is a good thing. That slimy-feeling stuff is the natural pectin present in the seeds and membranes, and it's what will make your marmalade gel.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/bayareabites/wp-content/uploads/sites/24/2011/01/marmalade-3-500.jpg\" alt=\"Marmalade ready to be jarred\" title=\"Marmalade ready to be jarred\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-21648\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>9. Bring pot to a fierce boil, stirring frequently to make sure it doesn't burn or stick. It should reach the setting point in about 20-30 minutes. Visually, it should look dark amber in color, with a maple-syrupy consistency. The peels should look thinned down and translucent. \u003c/p>\n\u003cul>To check the set:\n\u003cli>Use a candy thermometer. The setting point should be reached around 220 degrees F. Or,\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Remove pot from heat. Take a saucer out of the freezer and drop a spoonful onto the saucer. Return it to the freezer for a minute or two. Push the spoonful of marmalade with your finger. If it feels like warm honey and sets in one place rather than running all over the saucer, it's done. If not, return pot to heat and cook, stirring, for a few more minutes, then test again. Don't expect it to be as thick as store-bought marmalade at this point; it won't fully gel up until cold. \u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>10. Let the marmalade sit for 30 minutes, in order to keep all the peel from floating up to the top of the jars. Meanwhile, fill a large, deep pot with hot water. Sink jars into the water--they should be covered by at least an inch. Bring to a boil and simmer for 10 minutes to sterilize jars.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>11. Lift jars out of the pot. Using a ladle and a wide-mouthed funnel, fill jars to within 1/4\" inch of the rim. Wipe rim with a wet paper towel or clean dish towel dipped in hot water. Top with flat lid. Screw on ring finger-tight.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>12. Replace jars in pot of hot water. Bring pot to a boil and simmer for 8 minutes. Cover a tray or nearby counter with a clean, dry dishtowel. Lift jars out of hot water and let cool completely on towel. \u003cstrong>Don't disturb the jars while they're cooling. \u003c/strong>As they cool, you should hear a sharp popping noise from each jar as it seals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>13. When jars are completely cool, check lids for seal by pressing in the middle of lid. Lid should not move. If lid pops up and down, it didn't seal.
