Writings on the wall

I just got back from the exhibition farmer's market at Slow Food Nation, and I gotta admit I was a little under-wowed. A beautiful setup, but a little short on actual, you know, food. We'll talk more about Slow Food later this weekend, here are your weekly tidbits. Table Talk: Chef Fergus Henderson. I cook from this guy's book a lot, and I love the approach he brings to cooking: old-school British food with just a touch of whimsy to keep things lively. Spicy Pozole with steak, avocado, and lime. This doesn't look anything like the pozole I had in Santa Fe; it looks WAY better. Red Alert: Americans are concerned about food safety! I know I am. Be sure to read the special Wal-Mart surprise at the bottom... AG Guest Post: Interning at the Spotted Pig. I'll be starting an internship soon, but it won't be anything like this... Que Cojones! Ham and eggs with corn pudding and fried tomatoes. One can only so much corn on the cob in a given summer, I think it's time for pudding. Cheers! Eric
