By Iron Chef Leftovers Those who love me know of my man-crush on Alton Brown. Not only is he responsible igniting my interest in the science of food, he made the single best cooking show ever with Good Eats. I had the pleasure of meeting him several times over the years and he is a […] by A.J. Coltrane For future reference and before the notes evaporate — the cracker recipe for Iron Chef Leftovers’ big dinner party.

The Software 1 ¾ cups of pudding […] By Iron Chef Leftovers I like simple desserts. I am not a baker and I don’t like spending a ton of time putting things together if I don’t have to, but I do like chocolate and specifically chocolate pudding. Yes, you can buy it premade (which tastes like crap) or the instant pudding mix in […] By Iron Chef Leftovers This was posted on Alton Brown’s Facebook page a few days ago with the caption “November 18th. That is all I’m saying.” I wonder what he could possibly mean? November 18th – time to get your food geek on! […] By Iron Chef Leftovers I love gumbo but it can be really hard to find one with a good balance of flavor and heat in a restaurant. Most of the ones that I have had around Seattle have been too soupy or bland, so I decided to make one recently that was basically a modification […] |
