Zumbophiles – Adriano Zumbo’s Winter Collection 2009

May 26, 2009

Zumbo. Zumbo. Zumbo. It’s a name that I kept hearing within food blogging circles. So much so that it makes me wonder what all the fuss is about.

May 8, 2009

Photo from the Black Garlic Inc. website. “Ooo!” you may think to yourself as you cringe when you see what seems to be roasted garlic gone really, really bad. However, it hasn’t gone bad at all. Rather this is the intentional outcome of a month long heat-curing fermentation process which turns fresh cloves of garlic [...]
