As you well know, I have a thing for hot sauce. At one point I thought I had tried all of the bottles in the store. Then I made this whiskey hot sauce for my book Food Heroes. I felt it was my job to preach hot sauce to the world.Then I found one more recipe to try... it was magical.

Lots 'o fresh ingredients like cilantro, cherry tomatoes, onion, garlic, and eight habaneros. Are you ready for this?Can you handle the heat?"You can't handle the heat!"Name that movie.

Once they're all roasted in a lovely kind of way, you blend everything together.

It's yellow and sublime. It tastes like... the sun.

Actually it's mildly addictive and flavorful, despite the burning lips.How about you? Do you like hot sauce? Or are you a wimp? I'm just wondering...

I used to think of it as the strange stuff I'd see in strange gas stations on my strange cross country road trips. It was usually in stick form, a long tubular stick, wrapped in a coating of plastic, with a peculiar name like... Slim Jim, not because it made you slim, but because it…

The morel is my favorite mushroom.I think it is its richness and wonderful hearty texture that I like so much. The morel forces you to really chew it.They have a honeycomb type construction. And hollow stems. I spent many an hour trimming the stems and cleaning off the hard bits in my restaurant days. But…

I did it. I made homemade English Muffins. I can stop cooking now, my life's task is complete.The best part? The recipe uses a skillet... my best friend, my savior, my no-wash skillet. God's antidote to dirty dishes I say.They are full of nooks and crannies that would make Thomas proud.You can check out the…

Have you ever made sausage? Have you ever thought about making sausage?It is a fun affair.I would rather talk about sausage right now than the aftermath of the horrible loss I experienced last week. That has consisted of drama and me eating a box of truffles in preparation to open three Fedex boxes that I…

After I spent the day solving the "plague of pigs" crisis a few weeks ago, I began a hog cooking extravaganza. There were so many parts to break down and ponder.This is my friend Mike breaking down and pondering:Isn't he doing a nice job? He's a scholar of the woods and the kitchen.The thing about…

I have fond, peculiar memories of a glass jar sitting on the fireplace mantle, holding a liquid that constantly reinvented itself. It changed by the day, by the hour sometimes, from something strange to something more recognizable. This liquid, as it turns out, is intensely good for you, a drinkable yogurt full of good bacteria,…

One of the questions I get most often from interviewers is "what is your favorite wild animal dish?"I always describe this one.From the first moment I tasted it, it earned itself a special place in the crevices of my mind.This is a whole wild hog, marinated for days and then smoked for many hours.There is…
