Overheard on the Home Cooking Board

"I've only recently discovered that sheets of puff pastry make the quickest, easiest, most impressive tarts (and the 'cheatiest'!). Just unroll it, score a line about half an inch from the edge all round and cover the middle with whatever you like—caramelized onions and anchovies? Mozzarella, tomatoes and basil? Roasted peppers and feta? Then bake. The outside will puff up and the middle will be scrummy." - flashria

"It sounds weird to an American palate, but there are plenty of cuisines (particularly Middle Eastern) that combine meat, spices, and sweet. Bisteeya is delicious. I've made a variation using spring roll wrappers—shrimp bisteeya spring rolls. Great party appetizer." - spb

"With my garden overflowing with cucumbers, I've been making a simple salad with thinly sliced cucumbers and onions, tossed with rice wine vinegar, salt, and a bit of toasted sesame oil." - Chris VR
