Boris Johnson on homemade jam
Here's a delightful article in the Telegraph from the then-MP from Henley, now (if I recall correctly) the mayor of London.

The Italian Meat Bowl
I need to try this, and I have just the recipe for the meat - a meatball recipe in an old Food & Wine pasta cookbook (a relic from my Rich Young Bachelor days in the early 90s). It makes a great Italian meatloaf.

McGee on heat
Harold McGee, the Curious Cook, has a great article in the NYT on using heat in the kitchen. Points to remember in our kitchen:
- cover the pans, even if only boiling water
- presoak your pasta! (whoda thunk?)
- maintain a boil over moderate heat
- turn that meat
- heat the plates in the dishwasher's dry cycle before serving food
