This Mother's Day Cooking Class Deal Is a Sweet Treat - NBC Southern California Posted: 29 Apr 2021 11:24 PM PDT  What to Know
Setting up a screen near your mixing bowl, and the whisk, and the bag of flour you just opened, all with the hope that you'll learn how to bake something new, flavorful, and ready to be added to your repertoire? That hope, and anticipation, is one of the gifts of signing up for an online cooking class, the sort of learning experience that allows you to stay in your own apron, and pjs and slippers, too, if you wish, and pick up nifty culinary skills while at home. There has been a definite burbling, not unlike the burbling of warm butter on the stove, of new online cooking classes in the last year. And one of the major players on the SoCal stove-and-oven scene? The Gourmandise School of Sweets and Savories at Santa Monica Place. Now the school wants to help people treat their moms to something sweet on Mother's Day, and by "sweet" we mean both emotionally and perhaps flavor-wise, too. For if you spend fifty dollars at The Gourmandise School's shop through May 3, you'll receive a voucher for an online cooking class, a tip-filled course led by one of the school's top-notch toques. Of course, if you treat your mom to the voucher, or enjoy it yourself, it won't necessarily be a sweet or treat you'll make; there are a host of classes, covering all sorts of cuisines, meals, and tastes. In fact, there's a perfect one coming up on Mother's Day Saturday. The Parent & Child: Mother's Day Brunch has been created for grown-ups and their kids to enjoy together. The foods you'll make? Oh delish: Herbed egg scramble and strawberry shortcake are on the make-it-for-mom menu. The cost is $35, you'll get a list of the ingredients you'll need ahead of time (as well as kitchen tools, yes), and there are a number of slots remaining as April ends. Can't do this particular class, nor can you shop and get the voucher? No worries, for the sweetness shines on: You can purchase a gift certificate to The Gourmandise School, for mom to enjoy. Whether you opt to spend $50 and receive the voucher for a free online class, or you purchase a spot in the Parent & Child: Mother's Day Brunch virtual class, or you go with a gift certificate, here's something sweet: Treating Mom on her big occasion is always a class act.  |

Cooking with Radio Milwaukee's Tarik Moody April 29, 2021 - Milwaukee Magazine Posted: 29 Apr 2021 01:03 PM PDT 
If you follow Tarik Moody on Facebook or Instagram, you'll see what the 88Nine Radio Milwaukee DJ and digital director is into – posts about music and video games, but also drool-worthy photos of what he cooks. Almost daily. This gallery of gastronomy puts the many of us who are just trying to eke out a meal to shame. Carne asada, salt-and-pepper squid, shrimp dumplings, Mississippi Delta hot tamales, crab okonomiyaki pancakes. And what did you make? Just as many folks have given cooking more attention in the last year, Moody says his culinary productivity has been on the upswing during the pandemic. "It's made me experiment more and take chances" in the kitchen, he says. Cooking has also been an outlet for his anxiety and depression. "It's my meditation and my yoga," says Moody. "I enjoy the journey. I'm not distracted. I'm focused on the task at hand. There's something about holding raw ingredients in my hand and transforming them to the final product." 
Favorite Ethnic Grocery: Mo's Food Market2404 W. CLYBOURN ST. "It's not new but it's new to me. They seem to update their items. There's always something new in the aisles. The noodle section is crazy! The selection, the sauces and the little seafood section are so good." Moody, 47, didn't get serious about cooking until he settled in Milwaukee 14 years ago. Both of his parents cooked but didn't let him do too much in the kitchen growing up, he says. ("My mom's like, 'Get out of my way,'" he laughs.) He only dabbled in college, and it wasn't until after he graduated that he began experimenting in the kitchen – often "messing up badly." But he was learning from mistakes, like marinating chicken in Kraft Italian dressing. ("Don't do it. It's awful.") By the time Moody moved to Milwaukee, he had discovered chef/food travel writer Anthony Bourdain, whose stories behind the cuisines fascinated him. Beyond the dishes themselves, "I love the ecosystem of food and the knowledge of the culinary system," he says. And when he's cooking, he gravitates to Korean cuisine – an influence of a close friend who's of Korean-American descent – and the soul food his mom made. "Over time, I got good at cooking Korean, and there's something magical about it," Moody says. "The same goes for ethnic grocery stores. I love to find ingredients I've never seen before and think, 'What is that?' I'm going to buy it and learn." 
Must-Have ToolsMOODY WENT THROUGH a phase when he used to go to Boelter SuperStore and muse about what he might make with all the high-end kitchen equipment. Now he's gotten away from wanting to collect gadgets to focus on some staples: Chef's Knife:"I bought one at Sur la Table. I'm not sure of the brand, but it's great." A Cast-Iron Skillet:"Mine is over 25 years old." He uses it for steaks, blackened catfish, Korean bulgogi and even pecans. Zojirushi Rice Cooker:"I can make a batch of rice and leave the warmer on for a few days and the rice tastes amazing." Listen to "This Bites" on 88Nine Radio Milwaukee (FM 88.9) Fridays at 8 a.m. with Ann Christenson and 88Nine's Tarik Moody.  Commentscomments  |

Posted: 29 Apr 2021 04:56 PM PDT  The National Cattlemen's Beef Association is predicting a 13.6-billion-dollar loss for the ranchers in the industry, placing most of the cause for the financial hit on Conde Nast food publication Epicurious announced it's ditching all beef-related content as a pro-planet effort to promote sustainability and the movement is gaining some serious backlash from critics. The Wall Street Journal released an editorial Wednesday criticizing the magazine's decision to axe the bovine content and argued it will not solve climate change. "Virtue signaling over red meat won't make a difference on climate change," the Journal editorial board writes. "The editors concede as much, writing that 'individual actions like choosing alt-meat—or mushrooms, or chickpeas—instead of the real thing can feel so small they're essentially pointless.'" EPICURIOUS STOPS PUBLICATION OF BEEF RECIPES But according to Epicurious editors, ditching beef will give readers a leg-up in political preoccupations – a perspective WSJ considers a "progressive prod." "Addressing climate change requires legislation, international cooperation, and buy-in from the corporate sector," Epicurious' David Tamarkin and Maggie Hoffman write. "Every time you abstain from beef at the grocery store or a restaurant, you send a signal—to the grocery store, yes, but also, and perhaps more influentially, to whomever you talk to about your decision." Fox News contributor Rachel Campos-Duffy took to Twitter on Tuesday to publicly express her disapproval of politics snaking its way into a simple hobby like cooking. "Goodbye @epicurious. It was fun learning to cook with you when I was a young bride. Unfortunately, I don't like to mix cooking with my politics. By the way, if you're really serious about saving the planet, don't start with cows, start with #China, the world's worst polluters." Psychology professor Geoffrey Miller also put in his two cents via Twitter, questioning why Epicurious would just stick with beef if animal welfare is such a grave concern. "If you're really concerned about animal welfare, you'd stop publishing recipes that include chicken (which imposes far more sentient suffering per pound of meat than beef does)," he tweeted. Epicurious has been exceptionally vocal in their reply to recoil, releasing several statements on why cutting beef was the right decision for the publication. According to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United States, Epi referenced, nearly 15% of greenhouse gas emissions derive from livestock while 61% of those emissions are traced back to beef.
