Root vegetables and onions are best stored at room temperature — not in the refrigerator. But aside from taking up space on your pantry shelves or on your kitchen counter, what’s the best way to store them in your kitchen? Here are several ideas for the best ways to store all your favorite root vegetables, no matter how much space you have in your kitchen.
Q: My husband has to switch to a low-acid diet soon, but we love salads and want to keep eating them often. Any good ideas for lower-acid salad dressings? We’ve been using a lot of ranch, but it’s getting a little old.

“This is the ‘salsa de tomatillo’ that I grew up with. It can be used as a sauce for grilled chicken, fish or shrimp, as the basis for green chilaquiles (pour over tortilla chips, shredded cooked chicken and shredded Monterey Jack, then heat under the broiler), and as a dipping sauce for chips. Delicioso!”
Q: I purchased Harina P.A.N. to make arepas, and I’m all arepa’d out. Any recipe suggestions/ideas, other than arepas, that I can use this tasty flour for? I’m at a loss for what to do with it!

What kinds of meals are best to bring to parents with a new baby? Cambria offered a few suggestions and great pieces of advice earlier this week, and you guys jumped in with so many more! I thought there were so many good ideas — here are just three I thought were especially good.
Somewhere it is written, or it is now, that if your mom is a gazillion (cough, 35 weeks and 4 days, not that anyone is counting) weeks pregnant and she is the one that under ideal circumstances provides you with dinner, sooner or later that dinner is going to be breakfast pancakes with a side of bacon. You probably won’t mind.
It might be because she’d spent the first half of her week in Jury Duty, something she believes in so strongly in an abstract sense but, like most people, was resentful of as she spent two days sitting in a windowless room, watching her cankles swell (some recliners would be great, New York Supreme Court, kthx!), reaching a boredom level that can only be described as: well, she’s finally tackled Knausgaard. Maybe it’s because we had a little too much at our impromptu 15-pounds o’ ribs fest on the patio last weekend, and it hadn’t occurred to her to cook since. Or maybe it’s because it’s her birthday and while she had great plans for a towering strawberry shortcake stack, it turned out her energy level was more in line with a not-so-towering strawberry pancake stack.

“Sweet, sticky rice cake squares are dipped in soy sauce and wrapped in strips of dried seaweed to make a delectable Japanese treat.”
