Ask Chaka: February 2011

http://askchaka.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html

A gathering site for distantly dwelling friends. Wednesday, February 23, 2011. Who Owns the Slave? This is a satire. Don't take it too seriously, mkay? Just a quick note about "slave labor." The real question for those who would understand the nature of slavery is the question of ownership. Say there is a particular slave working in the fields, or at the factory, or in the house on Main Street. Who owns that slave's labor? This sin (and it is a sin) is in evidence when slaves abandon their duties entirel...

Gallery: 20 Cheap Eats We Love in Lincoln Park. The Serious Eats Chicago Team. Slice at Armitage Pizzeria ($2 to $3, depending on toppings). Don't look for fresh mozzarella here, just shredded hard mozzarella, which still lends a real tang to each bite, even though it is lightly applied. The sauce is bright red, slightly sweet, and tart. The crust, when it's on, has a crisp and chewy bite with nice char marks on the bottom. No cracker crust here." Read more here. 711 W Armitage Ave, Chicago 60614 ( map.

Ask Chaka: Falafel Meal from Scratch

http://askchaka.blogspot.com/2011/02/falafel-meal-from-scratch.html

A gathering site for distantly dwelling friends. Wednesday, February 02, 2011. Falafel Meal from Scratch. Thank God for Sultan's Market. Without them, I would not have known how awesome falafel is. I've been on a quest for the last several years to make as great a meal at home as you can get at Sultan's Market. I'm still a long ways away from that goal, but I've made progress. If there's one key to that progress, it's this: from scratch is better. I started by buying packaged hummus, tahini paste. But at...

yummy tummies & dirty feet: May 2009

http://eatsndirtyfeet.blogspot.com/2009_05_01_archive.html

Yummy tummies and dirty feet. Fun things from my kitchen and the garden. Wednesday, May 27, 2009. Lebanese Lentils and Rice. This is a quick and tasty side.  I like having it with falafel, and tsatsiki*.  . I realized I had to figure out how to make yummy lentils and rice because I am such a huge fan of it at Sultan's Market. I have been making the following recipe, and really enjoying it.  I am still working on the "perfect" falafel, so I am not ready to post that one just yet :). 2 tablespoons olive oil.
