Since 2001, I designed, produced, managed and contributed to mostly food-related websites and blogs for KQED including: KQED.org; KQED Food; Bay Area Bites; Check, Please! Bay Area; Taste This; Celebrity Chefs; seven of Jacques Pepin's TV series websites; and Joanne Weir's Cooking in the City. I initiated the majority of KQED Food's social media feeds and maintained them up until 2017. As far as content creation, photography is my passion and I also shoot video and write stories. My photos have been used in articles for KQED Food, News, Arts, and Science as well as for promotional purposes in print and online. Professional education and training includes: clinical psychology, photography, commercial cooking, web design, information architecture and UX.",

"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.",

So far she has learned that she very much enjoys salted caramel anything, a good soup dumpling is worth a scalded tongue, and there is no room in life for non-fat cheese and crappy chocolate. 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. You’ll probably get along just fine.\r\n\r\nStephanie's writing and photography have been featured in Fodor's Travel, Wine Enthusiast Magazine, Serious Eats, and Sundance Channel.

She currently writes for the Huffington Post, KQED's Bay Area Bites, NPR, and other select media outlets. Her first cookbook,\u003ca title=\"Melt Macaroni and Cheese Website\" href=\"http://www.meltmacaroni.com/\">Melt: The Art of Macaroni and Cheese\u003c/a>, is due out in fall 2013 on Little, Brown with coauthor Garrett McCord.\r\n\r\nBeing a recovering techy leaves an indelible mark, and everything Stephanie does is infused with her deep fascination with digital technology. She has been blogging since 1999, before blog engines even existed and a great readership consisted of a handful of friends who occasionally thought to check out your site. In 2005 she started her first food blog, which she repurposed in 2007 to become \u003ca title=\"The Culinary Life Newsletter\" href=\"http://www.theculinarylife.com/the-culinary-life-newsletter/\">The Culinary Life\u003c/a>.\r\n\r\nStephanie can be called many things: food writer, essayist, professional recipe developer, cookbook author, social media consultant, videographer, documentary maker, website developer, archivist of life. Despite all of these titles, she most commonly responds to \u003cem>Steph\u003c/em>.",

Jane Lin shared her reluctant acceptance of a traditional Chinese post-partum confinement after her first child's birth, and the strange looking but ultimately healing soups that came with it. John Garrone told the story of feeding his son strength-building maitake before difficult wrestling matches and Vinita Chopra Jacinto joyfully described her mother's masala dabba -- a jewelry box filled with traditional spices that she added to meals, a cross between a magician and a doctor, to keep her family healthy. All agreed that what is happening now with our culture's sharp focus on food, especially in the Bay Area, is that we are seeing an incredible opportunity to move beyond fad diets and build bridges between old traditions and contemporary applications. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When asked by an audience member how it all connects -- the nutrition science, the energetic sciences of Traditional Chinese Medicine and Ayurveda, and the cultural wisdom or folklore -- the panelists agreed that nutrition isn't an exact science yet, that the connections between theses perspectives are still developing, but that ultimately you get out of food what you want. It's your choice, when you look at your plate, to see random bits or your whole world. \u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cstrong>At the end, the panelists agreed on some simple prescriptions:\u003c/strong>\n\u003cli>Eat in season. Eating in season is one easy, natural way to keep your body in balance from a healing perspective, plus food in season tastes better.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Eat the full range of flavors (sweet, salty, bitter, sour, pungent, astringent) and colors in food. \u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Taste matters. Taste your food, really chew your food and experience the range of flavors represented on your plate. Food, especially functional foods, should nourish your senses as well as your body.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Prescriptive eating isn't enough; functional (medicinal) foods can only enhance the bigger picture lifestyle choices we make to support balanced health overall.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\n",

Jane Lin shared her reluctant acceptance of a traditional Chinese post-partum confinement after her first child's birth, and the strange looking but ultimately healing soups that came with it. John Garrone told the story of feeding his son strength-building maitake before difficult wrestling matches and Vinita Chopra Jacinto joyfully described her mother's masala dabba -- a jewelry box filled with traditional spices that she added to meals, a cross between a magician and a doctor, to keep her family healthy. All agreed that what is happening now with our culture's sharp focus on food, especially in the Bay Area, is that we are seeing an incredible opportunity to move beyond fad diets and build bridges between old traditions and contemporary applications. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When asked by an audience member how it all connects -- the nutrition science, the energetic sciences of Traditional Chinese Medicine and Ayurveda, and the cultural wisdom or folklore -- the panelists agreed that nutrition isn't an exact science yet, that the connections between theses perspectives are still developing, but that ultimately you get out of food what you want. It's your choice, when you look at your plate, to see random bits or your whole world. \u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cstrong>At the end, the panelists agreed on some simple prescriptions:\u003c/strong>\n\u003cli>Eat in season. Eating in season is one easy, natural way to keep your body in balance from a healing perspective, plus food in season tastes better.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Eat the full range of flavors (sweet, salty, bitter, sour, pungent, astringent) and colors in food. \u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Taste matters. Taste your food, really chew your food and experience the range of flavors represented on your plate. Food, especially functional foods, should nourish your senses as well as your body.\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Prescriptive eating isn't enough; functional (medicinal) foods can only enhance the bigger picture lifestyle choices we make to support balanced health overall.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

Infinitely more subtle and nuanced than its full-grown brothers and sisters, green garlic has a less intense flavor and a sweetness that only early-season produce can impart. Perfect for both strong and mellow dishes, green garlic can be used wherever you would use regular garlic, in the same amounts.

As the season progresses week by week, you'll notice that green garlic at your local farmers market will get thicker and thicker towards the bulb-end, until it looks almost like a fully matured bulb of garlic with a long, green stalk.

Green garlic should be eaten within a week of being harvested for the best possible flavor, though it can be stored in the refrigerator for up to three weeks if you end up with a bunch of it. To store young garlic, I'd recommend wrapping the stalks in foil and leaving them in the crisper drawer of your refrigerator, where the humidity will work to keep them fresher, longer.

She had a \u003ca href=\"http://www.oprah.com/showinfo/Oprah-and-378-Staffers-Go-Vegan-The-One-Week-Challenge\">Vegan Challenge\u003c/a> where she and 378 Harpo staffers went vegan for a week, followed by a show on veganism, American eating habits, factory farming, and industrial agriculture. Guests Kathy Freston, Michael Pollan, and Lisa Ling joined. There have been \u003ca href=\"http://veganhope.com/2011/02/04/what-you-didnt-see-on-oprah/\">mixed emotions\u003c/a> about the show: Was it sugar-coated? Should Michael Pollan \u003ca href=\"http://saywhatmichaelpollan.wordpress.com/2011/02/02/michael-pollan-on-oprah/\">have even been there\u003c/a>? Did the \u003ca href=\"http://www.oprah.com/oprahshow/Inside-a-Slaughterhouse-Video\">footage of a Cargill slaughterhouse\u003c/a> correctly represent the true horror of animal agriculture (Hint: No. But a new and concise video called \u003ca href=\"http://www.meatvideo.com/\">Farm to Fridge\u003c/a> by \u003ca href=\"http://www.mercyforanimals.org/\">Mercy for Animals\u003c/a> does. So does \u003ca href=\"http://www.earthlings.com/\">Earthlings\u003c/a>.)? There was a sense of tip-toeing around the issues, which I’m sure was at least in part due to the infamous \u003ca href=\"http://articles.cnn.com/1998-02-26/us/9802_26_oprah.verdict_1_mad-cow-disease-bovine-spongiform-encephalopathy-human-version?_s=PM:US\">Texas Cattlemen vs. Oprah Winfrey\u003c/a> and Howard Lyman lawsuit of 1998. Lisa Ling mentioned that they were not allowed to shoot everything at the slaughterhouse, and Oprah even says in one segment “Let’s try not to get sued.” \u003cbr clear=\"all\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Oprah Goes Vegan\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\n\u003ccode>\u003ciframe src=\"http://www.oprah.com/common/omplayer_embed.html?article_id=28922\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/code>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s not to say that good things didn’t come out of the show. One thing most vegans can probably agree upon is that it was huge exposure for the vegan lifestyle. Ten—hell, five—years ago, this wouldn’t have happened. \u003ca href=\"http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O-4j6vSyDu0\">Ellen\u003c/a> is awesome, \u003ca href=\"http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ehZXRQaaPCo\">Martha\u003c/a> has been great—but really, you can’t get bigger than Oprah in terms of reaching an audience. She opened a dialogue which few media personalities have dared to open.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Not only did Oprah convince her staff to go vegan with her (who collectively lost 444 pounds and gained 84 pounds), but she also instituted \u003ca href=\"http://www.meatlessmonday.com/\">Meatless Mondays\u003c/a> at the Harpo café and created a \u003ca href=\"http://www.oprah.com/packages/vegan-starter-kit.html\">Vegan Starter Kit\u003c/a> that now lives on her website. It features a \u003ca href=\"http://static.oprah.com/images/packages/vegan-starter-kit/vegan-shopping-list.pdf\">grocery list\u003c/a>, a \u003ca href=\"http://www.oprah.com/food/Three-Week-Vegan-Menu-Plan\">3-week meal plan\u003c/a>, a list of \u003ca href=\"http://www.oprah.com/health/Kathy-Frestons-Vegan-Alternatives\">simple substitutions\u003c/a>, a \u003ca href=\"http://www.oprah.com/health/Frequently-Asked-Questions-About-Going-Vegan\">vegan FAQ\u003c/a>, and some Vegan 101 from Kathy Freston (whose new book, \u003ca href=\"http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/1602861331/kqedorg-20\">The Veganist\u003c/a>, was the \u003ca href=\"http://www.huffingtonpost.com/chris-elam/kathy-freston-veganist-oprah-vegan-challenge_b_819371.html?ir=Green\">number one best-selling book on Amazon\u003c/a> after the show aired). \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Kathy Freston on Being a Veganist\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\n\u003ccode>\u003ciframe src=\"http://www.oprah.com/common/omplayer_embed.html?article_id=28972\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/code>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While the kit is pretty good for basic info, it does include a lot of processed foods, and TONS of Kashi (who seems to be a sponsor, \u003ca href=\"https://www.msu.edu/~howardp/organicindustry.html\">owned by Kellogg Company\u003c/a>). PETA has had a \u003ca href=\"http://features.peta.org/VegetarianStarterKit/index.asp\">Vegetarian/Vegan Starter Kit\u003c/a> on their site for years. Believe it or not, not all vegans agree with all of PETA’s tactics, but for all the controversial things they’ve done, they’ve also done a lot of good. One of those good things is their kit. It’s interactive and approachable, with traveler tips, recipes, and a shopping guide of what’s vegan at your regular, everyday supermarket (note: They are not all healthy—just vegan!). The shopping list is very handy for vegans just starting out or living in areas that are not vegan-friendly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I referenced kits like these when I first became vegan, but as the years have gone by, I’ve grown a lot in my knowledge of what makes my life easier, healthier, and tastier and I’ve naturally moved beyond the basics. With the help of blogs, cookbooks, videos, and yes, even celebrities, I’ve compiled, not only a great pantry and fridge, but also a strong library of resources. What better way to append the efforts of Oprah’s starter kit and online “resource center,” than to add what I know? New and exciting vegan information, products and places pop up everyday, so please feel free to comment and add resources that should be included. For those either committed to or just flirting with the idea of going vegan, I hope that this list proves useful. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>In My Vegan Pantry/Fridge:\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nThese are not your standard tofu/veggie dog/beans suggestions that most beginner vegan guides list.

She had a \u003ca href=\"http://www.oprah.com/showinfo/Oprah-and-378-Staffers-Go-Vegan-The-One-Week-Challenge\">Vegan Challenge\u003c/a> where she and 378 Harpo staffers went vegan for a week, followed by a show on veganism, American eating habits, factory farming, and industrial agriculture. Guests Kathy Freston, Michael Pollan, and Lisa Ling joined. There have been \u003ca href=\"http://veganhope.com/2011/02/04/what-you-didnt-see-on-oprah/\">mixed emotions\u003c/a> about the show: Was it sugar-coated? Should Michael Pollan \u003ca href=\"http://saywhatmichaelpollan.wordpress.com/2011/02/02/michael-pollan-on-oprah/\">have even been there\u003c/a>? Did the \u003ca href=\"http://www.oprah.com/oprahshow/Inside-a-Slaughterhouse-Video\">footage of a Cargill slaughterhouse\u003c/a> correctly represent the true horror of animal agriculture (Hint: No. But a new and concise video called \u003ca href=\"http://www.meatvideo.com/\">Farm to Fridge\u003c/a> by \u003ca href=\"http://www.mercyforanimals.org/\">Mercy for Animals\u003c/a> does. So does \u003ca href=\"http://www.earthlings.com/\">Earthlings\u003c/a>.)? There was a sense of tip-toeing around the issues, which I’m sure was at least in part due to the infamous \u003ca href=\"http://articles.cnn.com/1998-02-26/us/9802_26_oprah.verdict_1_mad-cow-disease-bovine-spongiform-encephalopathy-human-version?_s=PM:US\">Texas Cattlemen vs. Oprah Winfrey\u003c/a> and Howard Lyman lawsuit of 1998. Lisa Ling mentioned that they were not allowed to shoot everything at the slaughterhouse, and Oprah even says in one segment “Let’s try not to get sued.” \u003cbr clear=\"all\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Oprah Goes Vegan\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\n\u003ccode>\u003ciframe src=\"http://www.oprah.com/common/omplayer_embed.html?article_id=28922\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/code>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s not to say that good things didn’t come out of the show. One thing most vegans can probably agree upon is that it was huge exposure for the vegan lifestyle. Ten—hell, five—years ago, this wouldn’t have happened. \u003ca href=\"http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O-4j6vSyDu0\">Ellen\u003c/a> is awesome, \u003ca href=\"http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ehZXRQaaPCo\">Martha\u003c/a> has been great—but really, you can’t get bigger than Oprah in terms of reaching an audience. She opened a dialogue which few media personalities have dared to open.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Not only did Oprah convince her staff to go vegan with her (who collectively lost 444 pounds and gained 84 pounds), but she also instituted \u003ca href=\"http://www.meatlessmonday.com/\">Meatless Mondays\u003c/a> at the Harpo café and created a \u003ca href=\"http://www.oprah.com/packages/vegan-starter-kit.html\">Vegan Starter Kit\u003c/a> that now lives on her website. It features a \u003ca href=\"http://static.oprah.com/images/packages/vegan-starter-kit/vegan-shopping-list.pdf\">grocery list\u003c/a>, a \u003ca href=\"http://www.oprah.com/food/Three-Week-Vegan-Menu-Plan\">3-week meal plan\u003c/a>, a list of \u003ca href=\"http://www.oprah.com/health/Kathy-Frestons-Vegan-Alternatives\">simple substitutions\u003c/a>, a \u003ca href=\"http://www.oprah.com/health/Frequently-Asked-Questions-About-Going-Vegan\">vegan FAQ\u003c/a>, and some Vegan 101 from Kathy Freston (whose new book, \u003ca href=\"http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/1602861331/kqedorg-20\">The Veganist\u003c/a>, was the \u003ca href=\"http://www.huffingtonpost.com/chris-elam/kathy-freston-veganist-oprah-vegan-challenge_b_819371.html?ir=Green\">number one best-selling book on Amazon\u003c/a> after the show aired). \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Kathy Freston on Being a Veganist\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\n\u003ccode>\u003ciframe src=\"http://www.oprah.com/common/omplayer_embed.html?article_id=28972\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/code>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

PETA has had a \u003ca href=\"http://features.peta.org/VegetarianStarterKit/index.asp\">Vegetarian/Vegan Starter Kit\u003c/a> on their site for years. Believe it or not, not all vegans agree with all of PETA’s tactics, but for all the controversial things they’ve done, they’ve also done a lot of good. One of those good things is their kit. It’s interactive and approachable, with traveler tips, recipes, and a shopping guide of what’s vegan at your regular, everyday supermarket (note: They are not all healthy—just vegan!). The shopping list is very handy for vegans just starting out or living in areas that are not vegan-friendly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I referenced kits like these when I first became vegan, but as the years have gone by, I’ve grown a lot in my knowledge of what makes my life easier, healthier, and tastier and I’ve naturally moved beyond the basics. With the help of blogs, cookbooks, videos, and yes, even celebrities, I’ve compiled, not only a great pantry and fridge, but also a strong library of resources. What better way to append the efforts of Oprah’s starter kit and online “resource center,” than to add what I know? New and exciting vegan information, products and places pop up everyday, so please feel free to comment and add resources that should be included.

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. 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). Another old-world grain, quinoa has also been cultivated for thousands of years in South America. The Inca revered quinoa as a very important part of their culture, and used it to make breads, cereals, and other dishes. Not technically a grain, quinoa is actually a grass seed, much like buckwheat. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Quinoa has a nutty, hearty flavor that makes it ideal for both savory dishes and sweet breakfast recipes. It is high in protein, calcium, iron, vitamin B, and vitamin E. The protein in quinoa a \"complete protein\" due to the presence of all eight essential amino acids, something that's not often seen in cereals or grains. Note: Before being eaten, quinoa grains must be rinsed to remove its bitter coating, called saponin. When rinsing quinoa, be sure to keep the water flowing until there are so soap-like suds when you agitate the seeds with your hands.

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. 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). Another old-world grain, quinoa has also been cultivated for thousands of years in South America. The Inca revered quinoa as a very important part of their culture, and used it to make breads, cereals, and other dishes. Not technically a grain, quinoa is actually a grass seed, much like buckwheat. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Quinoa has a nutty, hearty flavor that makes it ideal for both savory dishes and sweet breakfast recipes. It is high in protein, calcium, iron, vitamin B, and vitamin E. The protein in quinoa a \"complete protein\" due to the presence of all eight essential amino acids, something that's not often seen in cereals or grains. Note: Before being eaten, quinoa grains must be rinsed to remove its bitter coating, called saponin. When rinsing quinoa, be sure to keep the water flowing until there are so soap-like suds when you agitate the seeds with your hands. Once the water runs clear, the saponin is gone.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

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. As she writes, \"You need to drink large quantities of water with this, but it is good for you, I swear.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Also, even if you're feeling rotten, it's worth tracking down the lemongrass here. It adds a certain herbaceous lemon-limeyness that can't be achieved by mere lime zest alone.

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>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

As she writes, \"You need to drink large quantities of water with this, but it is good for you, I swear.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Also, even if you're feeling rotten, it's worth tracking down the lemongrass here.

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.

You know how it is... you drag yourself home from work, head full of cement, and all you want is something warm and comforting to eat that will make you feel better.

More interesting that your plain old chicken soup, miso is comfort food with a little international flair. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For those uninitiated in the ways of Japanese cuisine, miso is made from fermented soybeans and other grains, which are made into thick paste that is rich in protein and nutrients. While there are many different kinds of miso, the two you're most likely to find at your local grocery store are red miso and white miso. Red miso is saltier, having been fermented longer, and white miso is a little lighter in flavor. For making miso soup, you want to pick up a tub of white miso, also known as \u003cem>shiro miso\u003c/em>. Note: This stuff lasts forever in the fridge. Seriously. I think my tub of miso is over a year old and it still tastes the exact same. Also, a little goes a long way, so don't buy a huge vat of miso unless you plan on willing it to your grandkids.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Another important ingredient in miso soup is dashi, or Japanese soup stock.
