About Food & Wine

Ingredients, Preparation, Lore , History

This cuisine section includes essays, lore, facts and fiction "about food and wine". We lead off with "Thoughts on Wine" a column by our new wine author, Louis Guida. We think you'll enjoy his writing. We also present a brief essay on sourdough starters. Starters are a "secret ingredient" of some of our finest chefs. Today, starters are used in breads, pancakes, waffles, cakes and pastries and may very well be that "magic" ingredient that separates the great from the ordinary.
