Beautifully done.
Mmmmm, cioppino.
I’ve been considering putting together a hard copy cookbook of Foodgasm recipes for a little while now. Not only are there some amazing recipes in the index, but also it’s a pain to constantly have to print off the ones I want or haul my laptop into the kitchen. I wasn’t sure how I wanted to go about the process, but was recently introduced to the Tastebook website (www.tastebook.com). Like many of the photo album sites, it allows you to create your own book, choosing the design, recipes, etc. Also, it allows you to import and export recipes to others. Best of all, you don’t have to actually join (it’s free) in order to see the book. Anyone can purchase the finished book from the site, if interested, or just access the recipes from there.
I’ve titled the book “Foodgasms”…duh, but the only lit reference is the poster’s member name next to the recipe title. There are ten sections in the book and it allows up to 100 recipes. I’m going to attempt to choose a well-rounded variety to fill the book, though there are certainly enough recipes to fill specialty ones (soups, all desserts, holiday, etc.).
Because there are so many posts to choose from, I’m going to try to restrict this to “tried and true” recipes. Ones that the poster, or others from the thread have tried. Many of these are easily spotted by their descriptions, but there are a few I’m not sure about. *Also, the first recipes I’m going through are those by “regulars” to the thread. There are quite a few single recipe entries by people who haven’t returned. For those of you who have contributed a large number of recipes (Hi, Tatiana!), I’ll probably need your assistance in choosing a few favorites.
*Yes, this means I’m going to include one of Pete’s jello masterpieces.
At this time I’ve only put a few recipes in, but if you want to check it out, this is the link…

Feel free to suggest any of your favorite recipes from the thread and let me know any changes that need to be made if you notice any errors. Also, if you have a photo to include (that isn’t here) I can upload those as well.
The finished hardbound, spiral books are $34.95, but again this is something I’m doing for selfish reasons and there’s no personal benefit gained if others purchase one. I just thought it would be a fun idea and wanted to open it up to everyone.
That looks so good! I also love the glass.Collette, I saw this and thought of you. I need to find this!!!

Good lord, that's ridiculous! It's dirt cheap over here, but I don't like how the cream side runs out first.That looks so good! I also love the glass.
This search result better not be correct!

I checked the link from there and it would end up costing about $46 a bottle, but the minimum order is 6.

I started to whine about how that isn't fair, then I remembered your coffee situation. You can add the Sheridan's to make it taste better!Good lord, that's ridiculous! It's dirt cheap over here, but I don't like how the cream side runs out first.
Good idea!If you have Canadian friends... Have them send you some. It's sold in liquor stores here.
Total "Doh!" moment here. What a great idea!!!! Thanks!I started to whine about how that isn't fair, then I remembered your coffee situation. You can add the Sheridan's to make it taste better!
Good idea!
I love flipping through the preview pages. It's going to be absolutely beautiful, and I can't wait to hold it in my hands and use it in my kitchen. You rock, baby.
And I want to extend my gratitude, once again, to all of the amazing Foodies, here. Without you people, this thread would be nothing.
I have discovered parsley, the lowly herb.
I used to leave it out, I thought it was optional.
Now I can't get enough of it.
and your breath is better for it, too.
what's not to like?

You're most welcome! I'm having fun putting it together.Collette, that is such a great idea that you did in putting together that cookbook. I follow this thread and I most definitely will purchase one. Thank you for all of your effort on this!
I'm big into the garlic-EVOO-parsely sauce for pasta these days.
Add black olives, or capers, or anchovies (imported) or pecorino romano, etc.
Super simple, but so fucking good, if you have my special non-garlic-burning technique.
Impart your technique, sils vous plait.
The simplest sauces are the best. Fresh and light. If you want to try a twist, add a bit of lemon zest. Let it infuse the oil. Some red pepper flakes (or other source of capsaicinic goodness) would not go amiss, either.
I dig simple, CJack. Wringing maximum flavor from each ingredient. Good stuff.
Can you give me a name for that one, for Indexing porpoises?
