In food news this week: New research out of the University of Copenhagen and University of Reading suggests the way we evaluate the nutritional content of food is all wrong. The study was just published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition.

For dinner this week, we’re cooking up baked marinated tofu.

We’re doing a little housekeeping with a round of updates about this very podcast. We’re taking a summer vacation …. Kind of.  The show will be on an every-other-week schedule till after labor day

That’s because behind the scenes we’re working on something pretty special–more food content from our hearts to your ears. We have ambitious, friends. If you are listening it’s probably because you like this show. We really appreciate your listening and subscribing to the podcast. But if you want to help our project grow there are a couple of things we’d like to ask you to do:

1. Tell a friend. Word of mouth is the way podcast audiences grow. Do you know another home cooking fan who you think would like Local Mouthful? Tell them about the show, in person, in an email or text, or on social media. A lot people tell us they pick up tips they use in their kitchens–tell a friend what you learned. If they don’t know how to subscribe to podcasts, show them. 
2. Leave us a review on iTunes (or wherever you get the podcast from). Not only do these reviews help other listeners find us, we read them and that makes us feel good. 

We talked over good party menus to feed a crowd and our favorite entertaining themes and recipes.

And finally at the market, we are buying cucumbers.

Did you hear? According to the New York Times, the hippies have won the plate. (Marisa knew this all along.)

In our what’s for dinner segment this week, we are talking fritters.

We are both pretty excited about making shrubs, which are delicious drinking vinegars made from fruit, sugar and (of course) plenty of tart vinegar. Marisa has been making them for years and Joy has just gotten started. They are easy!

And speaking of all things hippie–Marisa has recently gotten back into the groove of sprouting lentils at home.

At the market this week, we’re stocking up on leeks.

In the food news, an op-ed in the New York Times urges us to go cold turkey on sugar for a month. Would you do it?

What’s for dinner this week? We’re thinking white beans. In soups, spreads, salads, etc.

Have you guys been watching the Great American Baking Show? We have (and we love it.)

Joy is a bit stressed about the coming weeks because she will need to cook without a kitchen in her new house for a while. (Any tips for her, gang?)
