In 2023, Heinz addressed the scourge of the restaurant table known as 'ketchup fraud', in which restaurants replace the ketchup in spent Heinz squeezy bottles with cheaper brands.
Stuffed peppers are the homey, cozy, and nutrient-dense dish that you didn't know you needed. They're incredibly easy to prepare, as all you need to do is boil the peppers just enough so that they soften before loading them up with your favorite fillings. There are also many ways to upgrade stuffed peppers, seeing as the shells can be filled with meat or plant-based fillings, adorned with your favorite gooey cheese, and seasoned to your liking.
Not only is a second life as a salad dressing a far superior fate than the trash can, dips can also catapult what may have been an ordinary salad to new, crave-worthy heights. You can even get a little creative with them. The main thing to consider, however, is consistency. Most dips will need to be thinned out to make them more pourable and dressing-like.
If you've ever mixed something vigorously in a large bowl during a cooking project, you have probably experienced the universal frustration of a tilting, wobbly bowl. Maybe you're whipping cream by hand, whisking a vinaigrette, or even just beating eggs for a casual, but perfect, omelette, and notice the bowl starts migrating across the counter. There are some low-tech workarounds, like a damp towel or a silicone mat slipped underneath the bowl. Neither works terribly well, especially with super-slippery granite countertops.
Recipe apps live on screens while the physical tools that actually make food better are scattered across drawers and cupboards. Your phone is propped against a mug, your scale is buried somewhere, and you are guessing at temperatures because the thermometer is never where you left it. Most digital cooking tools ignore the reality that kitchens are crowded, messy spaces where the tools you need for precision are rarely connected to the guidance telling you what to do.
Inspired by Auguste Escoffier's exceptionally simple tartare, I've given his recipe a zero-waste twist by using whole boiled eggs and swapping in pickle brine from a jar of gherkins or capers to replace the vinegar. Everything else is optional: tarragon, mustard, cayenne add what you like or have in store. Traditionally, tartare sauce is delicious with fish and chips, calamari or in a chicken sandwich, but I also like it tossed through potato salad with tinned sardines and radicchio.
