I read this post and thought you crept into my mind then stole my words to make them your own. Regardless of cuisine, I cannot pass up a good cookbook and have an insane amount of them. Friends comment on my color-coded collection when they come over, but alas, I see we’re cookbook kindred spirits!

Hello,

Can you please tell me why you have 2 Alinea books? They seem different.
Can you explain?

Thanks,

Carlos Santiago.

Very informative, and great photos. We’ve got lots of oyster production happening here in Humboldt Bay. I’ll have to ask for a tour next time we pick up oysters from Coast Seafoods.

Hi, I stumbled on your blog while researching blueacre, I am actually staging there this week. I am in the same shoes you were in, in school, working in resturants but only on the cold side, (pantry, desserts, sushi) he wants to train me on hot side. I wan to be the best too and this was really informative. Thanks

Hello Chef Eric,
I have a friend that rescues these marvelous animals. The full blooded and mix bred dogs are so intelligent that it is almost scary. Border Collies are amazing companios and are incredible children dogs.

Comment on Cement by ryandewey

Impressive! Cement is tricky sometimes. I read in your other post about how the edges crumbled a little. You might try lining your mold with plastic sheeting [like thick painter's drop cloths], I made my kitchen countertop that way and it gave the cement a “sealed” finish look. By the way, have you seen Culinarium on Etsy? They make some interesting cement kitchen items that you might like [http://www.etsy.com/shop/Culinarium].

Comment on Eric Rivera’s Puerto Rico Travel Guide: Pique (hot sauce) by Charlie

Charlie — Thu, 16 Aug 2012 07:27:50 +0000

I had the the opportunity to meet directly the owner . His name is Jose”Chardo”, he showed me around the facility and illustrated me about the process of confectioning; before this sauce i was really resilient to any type of hot sauce. Since they tend (mainstream trade marks) to over do the HOT part to much.

However, Steven Cuisine hot sauce managed to balance the hot aftertaste of the sauce, with a great flavor and body. It’s very possible you will encounter yourself using the sauce with a wide variety of different foods and snacks.

In addition, I notice that being a hot sauce at least this one doesn’t go to hard on the stomach. So if you’re a sensible stomach person this will be a great election for you.

Regards, Charlie from PR.

This might seem really silly – but seeing this sketch completely reminded me of my dad and seeing his work sketches while I was young. I loved thinking how smart he was to figure things out on his own, and that is something I really admire in you too Eric! You are so motivated and driven, most of all passionate. Good luck on making this sketch become a reality – you are amazing at what you do.
