Ridley's Wreckage

When I was in grade school, one of my favorite things was Friday lunches. Not only did they serve the best sicilian type pizza, but Fridays were brownie day. I'm not talking any kind of brownies, I'm talking the most delicious, indulgent and fudgy brownies. These were the type of brownies that almost looked like they weren't baked to completion. Which was why we all loved them so much!

Actor Buddy Ebsen, who died at age 95 in 2003, found fame by starring in two of the most popular classic television shows in history: The Beverly Hillbillies (CBS, 1962 to 1971) and Barnaby Jones (CBS, 1973 to 1980). On the Hillbillies, he played former Tennessee country mountain-folk-turned-wealthy Beverly Hills resident Jed Clampett. On Barnaby Jones, he was one of TV's most senior, slyest, health-conscious detectives. Ebsen, however, almost became even more famous for a certain big-screen classic film in which he ultimately did not appear.

Sweet peaches are the ultimate summer treat. Whether enjoyed as-is, as the filling for a crumble, cobbler, or crisp, or even as an unexpected food you should be grilling, there are few things that can top a good peach. However, selecting perfectly ripe and sweet peaches at the store can be tricky. Choose too early, and you'll be waiting a while for them to ripen. Too late, and you're left with mealy pieces of fruit.

Dairy Queen is one of the original pioneers of soft serve. Its co-founder, J.F. McCullough, is credited by some as having invented the first soft serve machine in 1938 (other accounts attribute the invention to Tom Carvel of rival brand Carvel). The fact that the first Dairy Queen location opened along historic Route 66 only served to cement soft serve as the quintessential fast food dessert. Each swirly cone from Dairy Queen is a piece of dessert history, but it isn't technically ice cream.

Nothing spoils a scoop of creamy banana pudding like a few slimy brown bits of banana. Unfortunately, this may seem like an inevitability when using fresh bananas. But this doesn't have to be the case. In fact, there is a trick to keeping the bananas in your pudding from browning, and it lies in the layering process. Of course, it makes sense to want to place your bananas on top of your pudding (right above the whipped cream). But this presentation might just result in a brown, sloppy mess. To keep your bananas from changing colors, you'll want to place them near the center of your pudding mix, below whipped topping or between layers of pudding.

Sometimes, even the most basic cooking maneuvers benefit from a reappraisal. It's all too easy to get caught in a culinary routine, and not realize it's detrimental to the final result. An excellent example of such an often misguided choice is the go-to cooking oil; not any bottle laying around will do. For example, say you're shallow frying, which means you're using a generous amount of oil to sauté or stir fry, slightly submerging food in the process. You'll want to carefully select your oil, or else you're risking an off-tasting and unhealthy meal.

The Best Type Of Oil To Use For Shallow Frying
