I knew I was on to a good thing when my new test kitchen colleague Katja Tausig started talking about and cooking with feta. For a team whose mantra might well be “Everything’s better with feta!”, her enthusiasm, and desire to dedicate a whole column to this briny, tangy, salty cheese, meant that the fit was complete. So here’s to welcoming Katja and to celebrating feta: crumble it, bake it, blitz it, stuff with it, showcase it. Baked feta and […]

The project took nearly two years to complete and required significant planning and engineering design input. “If you’re a beer drinker you’ll understand that one of the most important production processes in a malthouse is the preparation of the barley for malting,” said Crouch. On this customer’s site, they had a box feeder grain system on an upwards rolling chain conveyor system that turns and washes the barley in a big concrete bath that is about 40-50 metres in length […]
Today the House Education & Workforce Committee will be considering the Whole Milk for Healthy Kids Act of 2023 (H.R. 1147), a misguided and harmful bill that prioritizes corporate interests at the expense of child health. H.R. 1147 would allow school meals to offer whole milk, increasing the overall allowance of saturated fat in school meals, inconsistent with the recommendations of the 2020-2025 Dietary Guidelines for Americans. School meals are required by law to meet the Guidelines, which clearly […]
TikTok is great for a lot of things, for the culinarily inclined it is exceptionally helpful when it comes to learning more about food. Food creators thrive on the app, where ingredients and recipes become full-blown trends. There’s even a name for this community: FoodTok. SEE ALSO: I love FoodTok. I hate listening to people eat. Though we’re just halfway through the year, 2023 has already delivered delicious trends on the app. Everything from tinned fish to homemade ice cream […]
Protein can be found in a lot of foods, but certain options are better than others. From chicken to egg whites, choose these foods to pack your diet with protein. Protein is an essential macronutrient that serves many functions in your body. The Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) for protein is 0.37 grams (g) per pound (lb) of body weight, or 0.8 g per kilogram (kg) (1). However, physically active individuals need 0.6–0.9 g per lb, or 1.4–2 g per kg […]

Raspberries are a top-drawer summer fruit that are at their best (and cheapest) between June and October. Part of the rose family, they have a fragrant, bittersweet flavour and soft texture, with the crunch of the pips right at the end. (My very clever ice-cream-making friend Kitty Travers even makes a delicious, refreshing summer drink from the pips that she sieves out of her raspberry creations.) They can, of course, be eaten raw with cream, and work well in a […]
