of PODCASTS!

I am now hooked on all the amazing cooking video podcasts on itunes. From Bittman to Bourdain (to Jane Doe Food Blogger in her home kitchen), there is always something interesting and delicious to watch whenever I am in the mood for a little culinary inpsiration.

You are right...we food bloggers like to play and learn, and what's more fun than playing with food?

Thanks for mentioning my saffron experiment!

Happy Kitchen Experiments

We're a creative bunch, we food bloggers, endlessly curious, thriving on risk and experimentation. We seek out happy accidents. We celebrate the hits and laugh off the misses. Here are some of the successful kitchen experiments making their way into the food blogosphere.

EXPERIMENTS with RECIPES, TECHNIQUES & TOOLS

Becks & Posh ~ had two failures before perfecting her recipe for Asparagus with Asparagus Sauce

Cafe LynnyLu ~ sacrificed pounds of fresh ginger and gallons of cream, just to perfect her recipe for ginger ice cream

Chocolate & Zucchini ~ tried roasting flour -- yes! -- before baking cookies with it

CakeSpy ~ tried six different breakfast cereals to make rice krispie treats (which one was best? it's a surprise!)

Simply Recipes ~ learned a new way to make blue cheese burgers, with blue cheese in every bite

Cupcake Project ~ wanted to know if you could bake cupcakes in a crockpot

Andrea's Recipes ~ is growing crocuses to harvest her own saffron

Baking Bites ~ you know those peanut butter cookies made from a tube of cookie dough that won $1 million in the Pillsbury Bakeoff last week? Nic converted the recipe into Double Delight Peanut Butter Cookies -- from scratch

EXPERIMENTING with BACON - it's the latest thing!

Never Bashful with Butter ~ experiments with chocolate chip cookies with bacon

Brownie Points ~ would you believe bacon vodka?!

NOT FOOD BUT these would open up time and money for kitchen experiments!

City Mama ~ has given up cable!

Food Mayhem ~ tries the "new Starbucks", Starbucks' attempts to review its 7100 locations

Foodgoat ~ tried giving up coffee entirely
