New Rules

I don't recommend nonstick pans for most preparations. - Michael Symon


I like Michael Symon.  I cannot wait to go to Lola on one our biannual visits to Cleveland.  I recently read through his new cookbook and enjoyed it a lot.  The above quote is from it.
 
So why is he now shilling for nonstick cookware?  I just saw his ad on TV. I do not begrudge any cook for making extra money, and the quote is not unqualified, but it feels wrong.

New Rule: a cook should not recommend any kitchen item that is not used most of the time!

Last Fruits of Summer

This is the saddest time of year.  The peppers remaining had to be picked this week.  It always presents a challenge though - hot sauce, salsa, something else?

You tell me!
