SOURDOUGH SPONGE The night before, take out of the fridge your sourdough starter (see my feature &#8220;Taming the Wild Yeast&#8220;). Transfer to a clean bowl and mix in [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[S. writes: …how [does] one uses a wok in the contemporary kitchen (its called the science of the wok). I&#8217;m wondering, do you use a wok or a ring for your burner? I read a review on cooks illustrated that basically concluded that the wok doesn&#8217;t make sense on a standard (flat) kitchen burner. The [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Everyday cooking means taking lots of shortcuts. For the most flavor with the shortest amount of time in the kitchen, especially when you&#8217;ve splurged or gone out of your way to buy good ingredients, it&#8217;s a delicate balance between paying attention to the details and just trying to get dinner on the table.

		<description><![CDATA[There was a time, before Pyrex and Oxo, calculators and even cookbooks, when rules of thumb ruled the kitchen. My mother taught me my first one when I was six and still standing on a barstool to reach the kitchen faucet, the infamous and eerily accurate &#8220;one-knuckle&#8221; rule for cooking rice. Like all good R.O.T., [...]]]></description>

While its name might lead you to think that this dish is of little consequence, it belongs in the pantheon of fantastic frugal food, along with panzanella [...]]]></description>

If you&#8217;re passing by or through tribal land, allow time in your day and space in your stomach for a stop at roadside stalls offering fry bread or, even better, Indian tacos.

		<description><![CDATA[Ardent fans of homemade corn tortillas, papusas and pleasantly plump gorditas know that arepas belong in Latin America&#8217;s reigning family of corn-based flatbreads. A staple in Venezuela and Colombia, arepas fill the workaday cook&#8217;s most important need: foods that are easy to make and easy to use and never boring. Early recipes required only cornmeal [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Once upon a time, hens took a break during the winter, waiting for the arrival of longer, warmers days to lay their eggs and hatch their chicks. Although we&#8217;ve entrapped them in an endless summer of egg production, it&#8217;s good to stop occasionally and remember that so many basic foods, especially the ones we take [...]]]></description>
