Round-up: Superbowl Snacks

From the food sections of newspapers and blogs everywhere, here are some that looked tasty:

Gumbo via Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Asian wraps veggie samosas and more, via The Vancouver Sun
Various snacks via YumSugar
Multiple guacamole recipes via The Washington Post
Mario Batali’s menu via Serious Eats

What are you making? I’m still undecided.

Farmstead in Providence

A shout-out to the local cheese shop/bistro, Farmstead. They are offering an assortment of food and wine classes. Thinking about taking the Normandy class next month.

Cooking Vacations

Has anyone taken one of these tours/vacations? I read an article in the NYT last year about a chef in Fez, Morocco that provides cooking classes for tourists. I’d really like to go, this year if possible for some cooking, eating and photo taking.

I’ve been brushing up on my French!

Oreo Cakesters

I’ve avoided these little cakesters for a while, but after spotting them on sale, decided it was time to try.

The vanilla filling is a replica of the filling in a classic Oreo. The exterior chocolate cake is moist and dense - with a similar taste and texture to Archway dutch cocoa cookies. The cake makes them even sweeter than the original Oreos, but with 250 calories per 2-pack, you don’t really need more than one cookie to satisfy an afternoon sweet tooth.

Breakfast

Homefries with crispy bits of linguica and buckwheat pancakes.
