Amy's Drive Thru
I had never heard of this place, but I'm glad I read this piece. For all the legacy fast food joints who find it hard to change to healthier practices, it looks like Amy's has nailed it! Any Northe...

annefood Never been but that looks awesome! Love the living roof. It's about time someone did something of the sort!
Learning how to poach eggs! Anyone have tips?
Made a speedy breakfast with @akhilg2002 of mushrooms topped with poached eggs and homegrown basil (yes the basil is still alive!). Not perfect, but these eggs turned out better than before. I trie...
-
JenniferEmilson Yes- while you are waiting for your water to boil, and then drop to a moderate summer, crack your egg onto a small sieve (like you light use for tea) set over a cup. Let it drain all the loose bits...
-
DietID_TeamDietitians Oh wow I was stirring like crazy! I'll try this next time. Thanks!
-
marynfulton2 Add a little vinegar to your water! It helps the egg stay together as well 😊

Why Cakes Crack (& How to Prevent It)
food52.com
I am not a good baker and have had many #foodfails while making cakes. Cracked cakes have become a norm - I convinced myself this gives my cakes character. But - finally - some good #bakingtips on ...
-
Gwendolyn I always add a pan of water to the oven while I'm cooking fish to keep it moist and help it cook evenly, but I didn't know you could do the same for cakes! Cool!
-
unconventionalbaker Good tips @Rachna. Also making sure the balance between the acid and base is correct. A lot of the cake's rise depends on the interaction between those two (like baking soda and lemon juice for...

JenniferEmilson You'll also want to ensure your leavening agents are fresh and active. Too high a temp is often the culprit.

Foragers
Go @shiraz and @anshu! This one was savory, tart, cruchy - a perfect afternoon snack without the sugar crash! Find them on shelves at foragers, west side market, and more!

sugardetoxme I saw this at Foodtown the other day!

tinabeans Whoa me too! They were at my office. It was tasty, and Newton (my corgi) also agrees (he ate a whole capful)

shiraz Cheers guys! Thanks for all the support
That Shredded Parmesan in Your Fridge Might Actually Be Wood, Says FDA

I can't believe this! Avoid this "castle cheese" like it's your job! #foodfail

JenniferEmilson I expect these headlines for products being imported from other lands, but what a shame that a North American company would stoop so low. Ideally, if you want to purchase pre-grated cheese, you...
-
DietID_TeamDietitians Ya this is crazy stuff. Freshly grated is always more expensive but may be worth it.

annefood So so crazy! And the only cheese in there is cheddar? What the heck!
