If you know what you're doing, though, a slow cooker can make the most of inexpensive cuts of meat, transforming brisket and stew chuck into something special. Attempts to raise genre standards include the 2003 cookbook The Gourmet Slow Cooker Simple and Sophisticated Meals from Around the World, but a quick perusal ofthat and other fancy treatments of crock-pot fare shows the authors tend to assume you are willing to stand around and stir the pot at frequent intervals, periodically adding and removing ingrethents. Those recipes purportedly yield great slow-braised, flavorful dishes, but I was planning to be out of the house all day. Problematically, the "dump and go" methods diat were the most convenient (put ingrethents in pot, turn on, leave) seemed to have the highest "rubber" risk....

Around the Mediterranean, from Spain to Turkey and from Lebanon to Morocco, tomatoes, peppers and eggplants are used together as the basis of countless dishes. Whether they are made into appetizers, side dishes or entrees, they are universally loved. They embody the lively color and flavors of the Mediterranean and often are cooked together with the region's favorite flavors -- olive oil and garlic. Most dishes can be made in advance and can be served hot or at room temperature.
One of the simplest and best is Spanish escalivada, a Catalan specialty. The vegetables are simply roasted in pieces, mixed gently and served sprinkled with premium olive oil, minced fresh garlic, salt and freshly ground black pepper.

Healthy food should not taste dull," says Los Angeles resident and health columnist Martha Rose Shulman. "I've always thought you could make really good food that was healthy without sacrificing taste for health and vice versa.
The cookbook author says "my cooking style is home cooking." It's produce- and fresh ingredient-driven and "healthy, but not austere. I cook in a leisurely way. It is nothing like restaurant food - the flavors are complex, but the recipes are not. I use a moderate to low amount of fat, and it is almost always olive oil."

Walk into any bustling osteria or trattoria along Parma, Italy's main thoroughfare, Strada della Repubblica, and you'll notice something curious. Parmigiani citizens almost always sip well- chilled, local vino frizzante with frothy, fizzy bubbles.
Made from moscato, malvasia and lambrusco grapes, the refreshing wines quench thirst with simple fruity pleasure in both off-dry and dry styles. Request non-frizzante wine, and the offerings typically include Tuscany's Chianti and Alto Adige's exquisite whites. Finding non-sparkling wines from surrounding Emilia-Romagna presents a challenge.
