Classics: Grandmother Muskie’s Polish Meatloaf

by Malcolm Bedell May 21, 2013

Let’s get something sorted out right off the bat: Grandmother Muskie, she of “Polish Meatloaf” fame, isn’t my grandmother. She’s Jane G. Muskie (Mrs. Edmund S.)’s grandmother, presumably, who submitted her family meatloaf recipe to the Portland, Maine Junior league for inclusion in their cookbook, “RSVP: An Invitation to Maine Cooking,” way back in 1982.

8 Recipes to Celebrate Cinco de Mayo

by Malcolm Bedell May 1, 2013

Don’t want to spend another Cinco de Mayo watching amateur drunks spew blue curacao margarita-tinted chunks all over the talavera-tiled floor of your local bottomless guacamole joint?

Classics: Peanut Butter Buckeyes

by Malcolm Bedell April 12, 2013

My childhood fascination with truancy wasn’t particularly unusual, I don’t think, though I may have come to it a little sooner than most. I was in just the sixth grade, living in the US Virgin Islands, when I discovered the pure thrill and joy of skipping school. Each day, I would take a ferry from [...]

by Malcolm Bedell March 14, 2013

A little bit of planning (and some carefully planned cooking projects), and you might even survive until Monday. Don’t worry; you can thank me later. 1. Corned Beef Hash “Have a great corned beef hash just once in your life, and you’ll find yourself forever chasing the experience, a journey that ultimately ends when you [...]

Today’s Sandwich: Open-Faced Toasted Mozzarella and Tomato (Homemade)

by Malcolm Bedell March 7, 2013

When you write a blog that features lots of photographs of sandwiches, they had better be mind-blowingly inventive. There’s no room for PB&J at From Away World Headquarters; back when we had all the time in the world, it was a cinch to whip up Veal Schnitzel-wiches with Garlic Butter or burn through an afternoon [...]

8 Hearty One-Pot Dishes You Can Eat Through a Whole Snowstorm

by Malcolm Bedell February 27, 2013

By the end of February in Maine, everyone’s last reserves of cheer are almost gone. Everyone you encounter, from the guy who refills the coffee carafes at Cumby’s, to the heavily perfumed checkout lady at Hannaford, wears the same beaten, broken expression. By now, Winter has dragged on long enough. It’s not scenic, or charming, [...]

8 Small Plates for Your Superbowl Party

by Malcolm Bedell January 31, 2013

Watching the Superbowl presents a unique opportunity to watch two seasoned, strategic Generals sending their soldiers into a symbolic gridiron battle, where each army must defend his home territory from hordes of massive 350 pound invaders, a battle whose outcome is determined not just by the strength of the individual players, but by the size [...]

Chinese New Year: Wonton Soup

by Jillian Bedell January 4, 2013

I never want to make any sweeping, declarative statements on the internet that I might, one day, live to regret. But wonton soup is the best thing you could ever eat in the middle of a long winter and if you don’t agree with me you are a total numbskull and we aren’t even friends. [...]

Chinese New Year: Crispy Orange Beef

by Malcolm Bedell January 3, 2013

Crispy orange-flavored beef (or chicken) is another staple dish from the world of picture-based Chinese takeout menus. Like General Tso’s, if the dish actually exists in China, it probably bears little resemblance to the aluminum tray filled with syrupy-sweet fried beef bits that we have grown accustomed to here in the States. It can be [...]

Chinese New Year: Vegetable Lo Mein

by Jillian Bedell January 2, 2013

There isn’t much I like eating more than a big bowl of glistening, slippery noodles. Greasy lo mein is one of my favorite takeout choices. Yes, chicken and broccoli will always be my number one, but veggie lo mein is definitely in the canon of American-style Chinese dishes. It’s no secret that mall Chinese food, [...]
