  1. A world of influence

    Because Columbus accidentally "found" the Americas while searching for a westward route to Asia, he gets the credit for sparking the Age of Discovery on behalf of Spain. Often overlooked today is the fact that Portugal was in the exploration game first, moving down and around the African coast in pursuit of gold, black pepper and the riches of the Far East.

  3. Hankering for one of those famous Dressel's cakes

    I read a small article in the Tribune food section about apple slices and it reminded of an article from several years ago about Dressel's chocolate whipped cream cake. In it, there was mention that a baker from Dressel's was working on a recipe to recreate it and that the Tribune would follow up. I've either missed the outcome or it has not come to pass. Could you please tell me if there has been an article/recipe and what has happened since then. I really miss their cakes as do many, many of my friends. Would love a try at it there is a recipe.

  5. Fear of frying

    Q: I have been wondering for a while now if you can substitute frying with baking. If you can substitute, what temperature should the oven be? I will readily admit to being terrified of frying and I have no idea what to do with the leftover oil. If a recipe that mentions frying, I move on. Any tips and advice would be appreciated

  7. Eat your vegetables - in stages

    An apple infamously did the trick for Adam and Eve, but for Willi Galloway, it was the seed pod of a forgotten radish that opened her eyes. It was that crunchy, spicy pod, tossed back as an impromptu snack, that changed the Portland, Ore.-based writer and editor's perspective on kitchen gardening.

  9. Help for the kitchen newbie

    Q: After 59 years of enjoying her wonderful cooking, my wife is no longer able to cook for me. I can't keep making sandwiches for breakfast, lunch and dinner. I look at recipes and don't understand some of the lingo and most have too many ingredients. Is there help for me out there? The prepackaged dinners have too much salt and calories. Most of them are too expensive and tasteless.

  13. Symbol of the South

    As interest continues to grow nationwide in all things Southern food — restaurants, chefs, cookbooks — there's a "natural curiosity" about the humble yet iconic cast-iron skillet, says Virginia Willis, the Atlanta-based authority on the region's cooking. The cast-iron skillet's virtues, and utility, can't be underestimated, in her view.

  15. Men in blue, spending green

    What would those gruff prospectors of yore make of men's jeans today — what with the serious talk about selvage (a finished edge), whiskers (wear lines) and the rigidity of raw Japanese denim? One suspects the answer would not have been "crocking" (dye bleed) but something considerably terser and blunt. But, who knows? Like death, taxes and striking gold, looking "cool" is an eternal obsession.

  17. Opening a different can of worms

    Q: Does a teeny bit of rust inside the can at the seam mean big problems? Just tell me—am I going to be responsible for major illness? There was no time to get another can of coconut milk for the cake.

  19. A champion of Southern cooking

    "I grew up in Freetown, Va., a community of farming people. It wasn't really a town. The name was adopted because the first residents had all been freed from chattel slavery and they wanted to be known as a town of Free People.

  21. Dishing about food writing

    Food lends itself to good writing because, as M.F.K. Fisher so famously wrote long ago, writing about food often means writing about “other, deeper needs for love and happiness.” In defense of her craft and her subject, she declared: “There is a communion of more than our bodies when bread is broken and wine is drunk.” What was true in 1943's “The Gastronomical Me” is certainly true in 2012. If anything, the appetites seem sharper in this schizophrenic age where computerized whiz-bangeries distract us from a gray, downsized reality. Looking to feed a literal and figurative hunger are scores of food writers, chefs, food bloggers and even would-be food TV stars.

  23. Mustard mystery lingers

    Q: Growing up in Old Town back in the late 1950s and early 1960s meant numerous trips to the North Avenue beach and Lincoln Park Zoo, among other places, and eating cotton candy and hot dogs. I remember the hot dogs at Café Brauer at the zoo came with only one condiment — mustard — that I believe came in gallon jugs with a pump. Try as I might, I have been unable to find who made it. Would you be able to find out who that was? Are they still around?
