Making my strides back to the blog after the arrival of my second baby. Somehow until you’ve overcome the 4 month sleep regression it doesn’t seem so important to make low moisture noodles and perform studies on the extraction and concentration of umami in the kitchen lab.

If you are like me and appreciate scientific thought and processes as it pertains to food you have no doubt tuned in to America’s Test Kitchen from time to time, whether on PBS or that short stint on Amazon Prime. They do the dirty work for you and fail on your behalf. They would then…

You no doubt are asked for recommendations for restaurants in any geographical location and you are kept on speed dial when things go…
It’s nice living here in Austin….
Blog link! Re-posting this blog – these guys do a fair bit of travelling and they love Austin’s own Ramen Tatsu-ya. I really need to make use of the fact that it is literally 25 minutes from my desk. I need to fix that. I do live in a decent ramen town. What we lack…
