I love these Mark Bittman features. They're always useful for gleaning a few new ideas from.

I do like me some Bittman.

(And no one has ever complained about my meatballs in buffalo wing sauce.)

If he's so minimal, why does he need so many apps in the first place?

I jest, I love stuff on toast.

Ooh, I can't wait to try this "LOGIN REQUIRED". Sounds delish.

Sorry, DU, it's off the menu. Care for a #85, "Mash four parts goat cheese with one part fig jam"?

WHAT DOES THAT EVEN MEAN?

Yes it is, at least in this case. But since 2003 we've been able to use the weblog-friendly version of the URL. I wish MetaFilter automatically converted NYT links like this...

reddit's New York Times Link Generator is one way of doing this (any others?).

That's the worst dance craze I've ever heard of.

I like that he spells 'kebab' correctly. An ominous silence regarding pitta, though.

Take two slices of bread. Spread with butter. Place cheese between them. You can vary this recipe by substituting other sliced foodstuffs for the cheese.

I tend to make everything Bittman posts, and it's always a keeper.

Now I'm hungry.

Ha, I was about to post this. Thank goodness for the tag alerter.

there's NO WAY anyone could make all 101 of those appetizers in 20 minutes.

Because looking down the front page is too hard?

I kid, I kid. I did the same thing. I was hoping for another 173 favorites.

And I bet you were, too, tps...

Man, Mark Bittman is so cool. I once spent a sick day at home watching all of his videos on NY Times (and I subscribe to his video podcast).

He does have some odd ingredient obsessions, though. Apparently today it's anchovies. He really did just suggest we serve butter wrapped in anchovies to people we want to be friends with.

You know, I was just thinking that my Tiny Balls of Butter were missing that certain... little-hairy-fish taste. Thank goodness Mark Bittman is here to set me on the path of anchovy righteousness.

blech.

It's my vacation! Any day where I put on clothes AND eat a meal is a success. Reading is pretty much out of the question.

And I bet you were, too, tps...

I already have enough favorites, I think......
