Homemade charcuterie made easy with rillettes and terrines Nov 9th 2013, 08:00, by By Russ Parsons The California Cook: Spiced pork terrine is an easy step into homemade charcuterie, and rillettes and terrines are great to have on hand when holiday guests drop by. Making charcuterie is all the rage among restaurant chefs, but with the exception of a few hardy adventurers, the urge to cure hams and sausages hasn't yet quite caught on with home cooks.

L.A. Times - Food & Dining: Three restaurants in the L.A. area take smoke to seductive heights

L.A. Times - Food & Dining Headlines from latimes.com

Three restaurants in the L.A. area take smoke to seductive heights Nov 9th 2013, 08:00, by By S. Irene Virbila Critic's Choice: Smoke is a versatile tool for the savvy chef. Three Los Angeles-area restaurants that use it well: Hinoki & the Bird, Barney Greengrass and Horse Thief BBQ. After eating at Asador Etxebarri, the extraordinary grill restaurant in the Spanish Basque country, last month, where chef-owner Victor Arguinzoniz works such magic cooking over charcoal that he makes himself, smoke is on my mind. I kept thinking about the different ways it can be used. It can be subtle or overpowering — or barely kissed with smoke, the way some of Arguinzoniz's dishes are. But it can also penetrate deep into a cut of beef, or illuminate the taste and texture of a fish. Media files: 16x9

L.A. Times - Food & Dining: Jonathan Gold | L.A. restaurant review: Purist omakase sushi at Zo

L.A. Times - Food & Dining Headlines from latimes.com

Jonathan Gold | L.A. restaurant review: Purist omakase sushi at Zo Nov 9th 2013, 08:00, by By Jonathan Gold Keizo Seki's downtown Zo serves one meal: the $145 omakase menu. His sushi is traditional but distinct, with admirable integrity. We have talked before about the gentrification of deep downtown, the colorful area familiar from dystopian novels and Tom Waits lyrics that has become the most reliable destination in town for bespoke cocktails, vintage party dresses and monogrammed dog bowls. And among the incongruous and wonderful things to have opened near the newly scrubbed corner of 4th and Main, that former nexus of flophouses and all-night porn theaters, none may stick out more than Zo, the new downtown sister to the Westside's Sushi Zo, which serves $145 omakase tasting menus in a neighborhood that has not completely shrugged off its aura of loosies and cheap wine.
