Slice Harvester
February 17th, 2010 · Reviews, food zine
I couldn’t pass the Slice Harvester zine up at $3.00 a pop while shopping at Whisk last night. This is an essential read for any slice aficionado. The inaugural issue features reviews of every shop above 110th st.
I wish this guy luck in his venture to review every slice joint in NYC.

Spaghetti and Meatballs All’Amatriciana

This recipe was adapted from the meatball issue of Bon Appetit magazine.
The bacon fat add a nice smokey flavor while keeping the meatballs quite moist.

The North Jersey Slider.
January 22nd, 2010 · Burgers, Sliders
As much as I wanted to take the 1 hour and 45 minute trip by public transportation to Hackensack NJ to try a White Manna slider, I opted to make them at home.
I used seasoned ground chuck, squashed into a thin patty on a hot cast iron skillet. Immediately cover the patty with thinly sliced onions and cook until you have a nice gristly char. Flip, add a slice of cheese, smother with onions, place a sliced potato dinner roll right on top of the burger, and cover the skillet until cooked through.
