I need a specific Frugal Gourmet recipe – HELP?
Kate asked:
I need the Minestrone Soup recipe that the Frugal Gourmet did. I scoured the internet and came across recipes saying it’s the Frugal Gourmet recipe but it’s from their memory. I need the REAL recipe ASAP. Please help. I really don’t want any substitute recipes – just the one from the Frugal Gourmet (Jeff Smith) from PBS. THANKS!

Anyone know anything about gourmet cheese?
paintmeblue719 asked:
I was recently introduced to a gourmet cheese shop, and I fell in love. I’ve tried locatelli and gureare (not sure about the spelling of those.) Anyway, I’m a cheese addict, but I really have no idea what to do with all of these cheeses I’ve never heard of, with names I can’t pronounce. Any other cheese addicts out there? What would be good for cooking, for fondue, for just eating, ect? I love sharp cheeses like the locatelli, and soft sweet cheeses like brie. Thanks!

What books are out there that can give me the basics in learning how to cook?
BlueGuitar68 asked:
My wife and I recently separated and she used to do all the cooking. Now that I’m alone, I need to learn to cook for myself. I am looking for a resource that will give me grounding in cooking fundamentals, like how to prepare certain types of meats (poultry vs. beef), create certain types of sauces, and how to develop into a gourmet. Help!
