Things may be quiet here, but I assure you I have been cooking. The soups and stews that have kept us warm and fed during the Month of Endless Winter may not be blogworthy, but they have provided me with … Continue reading
Son of the Cabinet of Doctor Charcuterie*
I had successfully prepared lonza and pancetta, the salami was underway, what else could I try to cure? A quick check of the Deep Storage Facility inventory list revealed a pair of forelegs from a half pig I ordered a few year … Continue reading
A Trick of the Tail
There’s nothing like a bracing meat pie to get you through the winter cold. My search for a traditional steak and kidney version led me to this Heston Blumenthal recipe, which struck the proper balance between fussy and overly simple. … Continue reading
Bugs!
I had to move this blog to a new web host. While the migration was as painless as could be expected, there were still a few hiccups, some of which are still being manifested in these pages: There are stray … Continue reading

Weep No More
If you’re a regular reader of this blog, you know that He Who Will Not Be Ignored is named after Miles Davis. What you may not know is that I’m named after Dave Brubeck. As friends sent me condolence emails after his … Continue reading
Aftersgiving
Here at Chez Belm we celebrate Aftersgiving: the weekend after Thanksgiving weekend. Since we travel to visit family most years, we were routinely denied the joys of turkey leftovers until I hit on the idea of ordering a farm-raised turkey … Continue reading
When Blogs Collide
I had developed an online friendship with Ryan Adams after I discovered his blog Nose to Tail at Home, where, in the absence of god, he’s doing Fergus’s holy work and cooking every recipe. When I read his review of Takashi … Continue reading
