About Hard Seltzer, Our One-Minute Cooking Tip, An Interview With Lauren Thomas, Kimchi, Potato Salad, & More!

Hard seltzer has taken over the market! It's everywhere. And we're doing a live taste test of several brands.

Join in the fun! We're veteran cookbook authors Bruce Weinstein & Mark Scarbrough with over three dozen titles to our names, not to mention knitting books from Bruce and a memoir from Mark. Check out one of our favorites: THE ULTIMATE PARTY DRINK BOOK.

After our hard seltzer taste test, we've got a one-minute cooking tip on choosing a great watermelon. The Bruce interviews author Lauren Thomas about her book THE MODERN HIPPIE TABLE. And we tell you what's making us happy in food this week.
