What’s a supermarket product you always buy?…

When I was in third grade, Fun Fruits were the most coveted item at the lunch table. They were squishy oval-shaped gummy snacks and we’d press them onto our fingers so they looked like beautiful grape-colored fake nails. It’s unclear if there was any actual fruit in Fun Fruits, but they were the hot snack of the ’80s and a sure sign of coolness. I still remember the anticipation of opening my blue plastic Care Bears lunch box to see if I had a pack inside. I’m pretty sure this is my only third grade memory. School lunch nostalgia is very intense. We asked Food Network stars to share their cafeteria tales for this issue and we were flooded with stories (see page 34). Sunny Anderson always had a soft spot…

Burning Questions

GO FOR IT Can I eat something at the grocery store before I buy it? If you’re planning to pay for the item, most supermarkets won’t give you a hard time. Just don’t snack on food that’s sold by weight, because that means you’re cheating the store. Ella Mae Sandford, a former Wegmans cashier, said she didn’t mind if shoppers snacked as long as they gave her the barcode. “Once a customer gave me an apple core, and I couldn’t charge them for it,” she says. NO WAY Is the 5-second rule legit? According to research from Rutgers University, bacteria can transfer from the floor to food instantly. Wet foods are especially problematic; they pick up bacteria more easily than dry foods. The kind of floor is a factor too: Tile tends to transfer more…

Tour the TEST KITCHEN

If you want to see this magazine in the making, you can do it right from the sidewalk on East 19th Street in New York City: Food Network’s test kitchen, on the ground floor, has floor-to-ceiling windows, so anyone passing by can see our recipes in the works. On any given day it’s a flurry of activity, with food processors whirring, sauces simmering and teams of recipe developers creating and testing their latest dishes. The magazine’s culinary team, led by test kitchen director Steve Jackson, produces more than 50 recipes for every issue, while other chefs crank out content for foodnetwork.com, shows and social media. The space is also home to several studios, so star chefs drop by on the regular. Take a look around… DEVELOPING and TESTING Every recipe for the…

Starbucks execs knew that egg bites would be a hit when they added them to the menu: The idea came straight from their customers. About a decade ago, people started ordering egg sandwiches without the bread, so the company took the hint and created its now-famous mini frittatas. Other brands followed with their own versions, and now egg bites seem to be everywhere. We tasted all the versions we could find and created this copycat recipe. Getting the light, airy texture was the trickiest part. (Cottage cheese is the secret—and cooking the bites in a water bath!) Make a batch and stash them in your freezer—they reheat perfectly! How to Make Egg Bites 1. In a blender, puree 7 large eggs with ¾ cup 2% cottage cheese, any mix-ins (see right) and…

Lila Smethurst, 13, learned how to bake from her mother and grandmother, but she became a real pro by watching Kids Baking Championship. “I’ve seen each season multiple times,” she says. Landing a spot on the show was a dream come true, and the San Antonio teen was especially excited to meet judge Duff Goldman: “I’m a superfan!” she says. For the science fair–themed final challenge, Lila wowed Duff with her volcano-shaped chocolate cake with Nutella pastry cream and salted caramel buttercream. She took home the $25,000 grand prize, then promptly got two cats and named one of them Duff in honor of her baking idol. Turn the page to try Lila’s winning dessert—as a cupcake!

Let’s hear it for…MINT This herb is good for more than just mojitos! Mint is a great addition to savory dishes, especially ones with bold flavors that could benefit from a cooldown, like curries or spicy pastas. It also pairs well with earthy veggies, like the beets on page 61. Try tearing the leaves instead of chopping them; they’ll be less likely to bruise. Good Gear You don’t need a special spatula to flip fish; a regular slotted one like this will do. But you do need to watch the timing: Fish is delicate, so make sure you cook it until the flesh is partially opaque (about two-thirds to three-quarters up the sides) before you flip it. Then cook briefly on the other side until it’s cooked through. Shortcut of the Month Doctoring frozen fries…

The Simple Things

many people have said this before me, but it’s true: It’s not easy to make something simple. Sure, you can make the ubiquitous Caprese salad by slicing tomatoes and mozzarella, drizzling them with olive oil and vinegar, and sprinkling on salt and pepper, but how many of these salads can you eat every summer? When I’m assembling a simple dish, I always try to figure out how to make it exciting. This tomato salad is a cornucopia of tomato flavors and textures: thickly sliced red and yellow large tomatoes, medium ones cut in wedges and small cherry tomatoes cut in half. Instead of using bland mozzarella, I added big shards of piquant Roquefort cheese on top along with fruity olive oil, acidic red wine vinegar, fresh basil leaves and seasonings.…

Summer by the Book

When Lidey Heuck was just two weeks out of college, she moved from Maine to East Hampton, NY, and started working for Ina Garten. It was a dream job that kept getting dreamier: Lidey had been hired to work on Ina’s social media but soon started tasting food, testing recipes and cooking alongside the Barefoot Contessa herself. Though she had no formal culinary training, Lidey grew up with a close extended family that included restaurateurs. “I absorbed a lot at those childhood dinner tables, but my education wasn’t about fancy cooking techniques—it was about the power of food to bring people together,” she says. During her seven years with Ina, Lidey learned how to create super-flavorful, foolproof recipes, and her first book, Cooking in Real Life, is packed with them.…

Penny Milligan’s dog bakery business started out as a hobby: She’d been making pup treats for fun and sharing them with fellow pet owners, and they were such a hit that her neighbor’s dog started refusing store-bought ones. “He was waiting for fresh treats from me!” Penny says. She knew she was onto something, so she got to work creating The Hungry Hound in Somerville, NJ. “We were the first dog bakery that people in the area had ever heard of,” she says of her store, which has now been in business for more than 20 years. These days, Penny (pictured above with her rescue Dolly) cranks out all kinds of pet-friendly cakes, biscuits and cookies, like these PB&J thumbprints, one of her bestsellers. “It’s just like eating a peanut…

football season is here, so it’s time to settle the score. What’s more important: the food or the game? According to a reader poll, more than half of you are just in it for the eats.
