| Our Most Popular Recipes in May Posted: 01 Jun 2022 09:00 AM PDT April showers bring May flowers…and these top 10 recipes. This month, you, our readers, had both sweet and savory cravings, but as temperatures rose in many parts of the country, you also wanted to cool off. We totally get it. From Emma Laperruque's Salt & Pepper Ice Cream topped with a crackly brittle to Rick Martinez's Strawberry-Rhubarb Icebox Cake With Pistachio Brittle, these are the recipes we want to make when it's too hot to do anything else. From Our Shop 10. Di San Xian (Stir-Fried Eggplant, Potato & Bell Pepper)This warm-weather stir-fry makes seasonal staples—potatoes, red and green bell peppers, and eggplants—the life of the party. Once cooked, they're tossed with a simple sauce made from soy sauce, granulated sugar, cornstarch, and garlic. |
| Do You *Really* Need to Sort Your Laundry? Posted: 01 Jun 2022 05:30 AM PDT My mother taught me to do laundry when I was an early teenager, and a big part of her lesson was how to sort clothing. To this day, she has a thorough sorting routine—she separates her loads of laundry into whites, colors, underwear, jeans, even my dad's work clothing, which tends to get really dirty and merits its own cycle. Towels also get their own load, as do sheets and other bedding. That was how I was taught to do laundry, and for the past 20 years, that was exactly how I did it every two weeks—or however long it took for me to run out of socks. However, this is the part where I tell you that I really don't like doing laundry, in large part due to the aforementioned sorting. So when my partner and I moved into our house together and started sharing a laundry basket, he took over the chore, and I happily let him. |
| Our Essential 4th of July Recipes Posted: 31 May 2022 03:00 PM PDT If you're celebrating 4th of July, odds are said shindig will look a little different this year. But! Don't let that stop you from feasting on blue cheese burgers, superlative potato salad, cream-topped fruit pie, and then some. Here are 65 party-ready recipes for the 4th (and for the rest of summer, too). From Our Shop 1. Nori Deviled EggsEgg yolks are mixed with mayo, soy sauce, and sesame oil, then topped with a crispy chip of nori. |
| 20 Easy Summer Slow-Cooker Recipes So You Turn Off the Oven Posted: 31 May 2022 02:00 PM PDT News flash: Slow-cookers like chicken with 40 cloves of garlic or pot roast. They're for every season and every weather. If your slow cooker has an adorable blue-checkered design like mine does, then you'll get why mine's always out on the counter. That means my Crock-Pot is always ready for meal-prepping (i.e. dump ingredients, turn on, walk away), even in the sweltering heat of summer. Especially in the sweltering heat of summer. |
| For Restaurant-Quality Meals on A Budget, Fire Up the Grill Posted: 31 May 2022 12:31 PM PDT Nickel & Dine is a budget column by Rebecca Firkser, food writer, recipe developer, and expert budgeter. This time, Rebecca is teaming up with our friends at Walmart to share tips for easy summer entertaining, featuring her signature flavor-packed, time-saving recipes plus a few of her must-have hosting items from Walmart—order 'em online for pickup or delivery. When a perfectly grilled steak or vegetable dish is laid in front of you at a restaurant, it seems to hit all the senses at once. You listen to the sizzle while admiring the crosshatch marks on the steak or charred bits of wrinkly skin on the eggplant. As you inhale that smoky scent, you dig in—it cuts with barely any effort. And then the first bite, bearing a thousand layers of flavor from time directly over a flame. That contrast between scorched exterior and buttery interior simply couldn't have happened in a skillet alone. Here's a secret: This symphonic experience has less to do with the restaurant or expensive ingredients than it does with the tool, and you can very easily get any style of grill, at any price point, to suit your lifestyle and achieve restaurant-quality results right at home. |
| Psst: This Supermarket Trick Can Save You Money Posted: 31 May 2022 11:33 AM PDT We've teamed up with Walmart to share tips for saving money on your weekly grocery trip. From their simple online and in-app ordering to seamless in-store pickup or delivery, shopping Walmart brands is an easy way to save big. I"m going to let you in on a little secret: Not everything you buy at the grocery store needs to be name brand. So much of what we might purchase based on the brand name can actually be much more affordable—with the same level of effectiveness and quality—if we just buy generic. I know I'm not alone in cringing as my total increases with each item scanned at checkout, when I likely went to the store for only a handful of things. That's why I started looking at the ingredients and comparing big-name brands with Walmart's in-house brands. And wouldn't you know it? More often than not, the Walmart brand is exactly the same, but for much less money. |
| 7 Things Our Community Couldn't Stop Buying In May Posted: 31 May 2022 11:00 AM PDT I learned long ago that shopping is one of my greatest joys. Not just because I genuinely love discovering new brands and products, but because I love showing off my finds to anyone who will listen. So, is it any surprise that I'm a market editor? Nope—none whatsoever. Possibly an even greater joy? Seeing what you, our community, shop for each month. In May, so many of you grabbed a versatile Dutch oven from our collab with Staub, while others went all-in on furniture during Wayfair's big Memorial Day sale. |
| What You Need to Know About the Fresh Strawberry Recall Posted: 31 May 2022 10:51 AM PDT Yesterday, I went to blend a smoothie—my usual combination of bananas, pineapple, mango, dragon fruit, and strawberries—but, immediately after adding the fresh strawberries to the blender, I thought better of it and began to pluck them out one by one. "Mom, when did I get my hep A vaccination?" I shouted from the kitchen. |
| Don’t Throw Out Those Shrimp Shells. Use Them to Make This Perfect Pasta. Posted: 31 May 2022 09:00 AM PDT A Big Little Recipe has the smallest-possible ingredient list and big everything else: flavor, creativity, wow factor. That means five ingredients or fewer—not including water, salt, black pepper, and certain fats (like oil and butter), since we're guessing you have those covered. Inspired by the column, the Big Little Recipes cookbook is available now. Between you and me, when I started this column just over four years ago, I was worried I would run out of ideas. How many dishes could we possibly make with five or fewer ingredients? |
| The Beautiful, Functional Garden Shed of My Dreams Posted: 31 May 2022 05:30 AM PDT Like most people during the pandemic, I desperately wanted to carve out a quiet space for myself. After a long day of slinging snacks and sandwiches between my children's virtual school lessons, I needed, even if briefly, somewhere to go. The rub was that our two-bedroom bungalow was already maxed out with my husband working from a small office off our primary bedroom and two children taking Zoom calls from desks spread between the dining room and kitchen. Then, a dilapidated metal shed jammed in the corner of our backyard suddenly inspired hope. |
