Wednesday Papers
The first Wednesday papers coverage in a while. I've been busy, sorry.
NYT: Oy, where to begin? There's a lot of wine coverage today. The regular column is about tasting some French vintages from the 80's. Something that might be of interest to Fred. In addition, there are articles on two lesser known wine regions; the Walla Walla region in Washington state and New Jersey. Finally, there's a little blurb about how the new legalization of wine shipments takes place soon.
Foodwise, the top article is on Jamaican beef patties. This is served with a jamaican cocktail article. Capitan Minimalismo makes a mexican salad that smells cevichey. Tattooed fruit is the wave of the future, eliminating the need for those pesky stickers.
SF Chronicle: 100 great ideas is the lede here in SF. The editors put together a list of 100 things to do with summer cooking which looks interesting. Elsewhere there are many articles on fresh ingredients (this is california) including tomatoes, corn and halibut.
Wine is about giving wine some air to let it open up. Featured region is Santa Lucia for its pinot noirs. Cheese course is a spanish blue.
St. Petersburg Times: Guest spot from Florida today. It is a pretty good looking section but lacks wine coverage.
The lead article is very timely--it covers cooking in the dark, as when a hurricane hits and knocks out power. I thought that was pretty funny.
Further down is an article on a the latest garlic utensil. The cookbook column covers vacation food. There are also articles on eating like Hemingway in Cuba, lasagna for breaky chocolate-less fudge and spanakopita.
