Real talk on a Sunday: “Foodie” is a smug, unpleasant word, a diminutive, patronizing expression that reduces a person’s keen interest in the delicious to a silly fascination with cooking and eating. “Foodie” is condescension wrapped in affectionate disdain, even for those who embrace the identity. We should all experience the freedom to cook whatever we want to cook, however we want to cook it, without judgment. Like, for instance, this roasted salmon with peas and radishes. It profiles as superfancy, exactly the sort of dish you’d expect a foodie to cook on the weekend, with its pretty pinks and greens and oranges and its fragrantly nutty, miso-amped sauce.

☆ 8 mistakes you're probably making when grilling chicken
▼ + stars: | 2024-05-23 | by ( Sara Lindberg | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: 1 min

Medium-high heat is the right temperature for chicken on a gas grill. iStockIf you're cranking the heat up too high you might be ruining your dinner. "If you're using a gas grill, medium-high is an ideal temperature — about 350 degrees," she said. If you're using charcoal to cook wings, consider pushing the coals to one side so the chicken cooks on indirect heat. That way you have direct heat on one side for searing and indirect heat on the other for lower and slower cooking.
