Thanks for listening and thanks for supporting our friends and neighbors in the food-service industry!
Have you ever asked for an ale when you wanted a lager? Ever asked for BBQ sauce in South Carolina? During the pandemic, did you make a crumble when you wanted cobbler? And what are the differences between cage-free and organic eggs?
If these and other culinary conundra have been taking up even more brain space than the pandemic already has, there is now a handy compendium that can clarify at least many of them.
Based upon her popular blog, “What’s the Difference,” Brette Washaw has put together some of her most popular food-related clarifications and distinctions into a book that can help you order (when you go out to eat again), shop and even cook more effectively and efficiently.
From apples and beer to rice and wine, the book is divided into categories that help home chefs and Michelin stars find the foods they fumble and come to a clear conclusion as to which is which and what the best options are for a given gourmand.
So the next time you want to pickle but really need to brine or can’t tell the difference between Marmite and Vegemite (is there one?!), just reach for What’s the Difference and you too can at least sound like an expert!
