Question for bread bakers ...
Sorry- I am a little late to this one. I love Artisan Bread Every Day and use it almost exclusively. I particularly love the challah, bagels, ciabatta, French bread and babka. So....which book did you get?

Future Challenges
Hi Everyone- I haven't been so 'vocal' lately, and haven't looked through this entire thread. I would love to see a totally Ina Garten/Barefoot Contessa challenge- using all of her cookbooks. Has this already been discussed?

My spice cabinet is getting out of control and I was wondering this too! I've been planning on chucking most of what's in there. Recently, when I buy new ones, I have been writing the purchase date on the jar. Perhaps I will throw out anyt…

Ad Hoc Question
Thanks for your advice. I checked all over and couldn't find fresh figs so I bought dried. I will do as you suggest, Andrew, and soak them first. I'm sure they will be fine. Your dinner sounds great. Enjoy. @aj Good luck with your travels…

Southern Cooker- We might need to do an Ina cook-off when the new book comes out! Maybe Andrew will make that one a Cookbooker Challenge...

I love all of the Barefoot Contessa cookbooks too and can't wait for her new one to come out in October. I am currently still working my way through Ad Hoc even though the challenge is over.

What did you have for dinner?
I just made (and reviewed) the spaghetti with turkey meatballs from Everyday Food magazine 2003. I don't have the magazine but the recipe is available at MarthaStewart.com. It was soooo good. Andrew- thanks for starting the forum!
