What's Cincinnati Chili all about [how's it different from ordinary 
chili]?

It calls the cops on you if you read Hustler.

Well, I'm no expert, but it seems to be seasoned differently, and the
end product, although very flavorful, isn't really all that hot.  At 
least the recipe I made wasn't particularly hot.  Some of the spices
I added were garam masala, cinnamon and nutmeg.

It's served on top of spaghetti and topped with cheese and maybe onions.
The sauce is about equal parts meat and beans.  The "ways" have to do 
with how many traditional toppings are used.  "Three way" is with 
cheese and four is onions.  

Wikipedia has an article on it:

(Damn, I LOVE wikipedia.)

Five way is with kidney beans added...

If you're ever in the DC area, I highly recommend Hard Times Cafe.  
They do a wonderful cincinatti chili.

And um, EW about reading the definition for a six-way!

chocolate

I made this soup for dinner tonight.  I added only half the chickpeas
she suggested.  I also used the Israeli couscous.  Yummy.

I finally got around to making that no-knead bread I've been reading so 
much about.  It came out great.  I'll leave a link to a blog post I've 
made that includes the recipe.  Needless bread - too cool. ;-)

I made this yesterday to bring for lunch.  I had plenty for two 
servings.

Took some frozen mahi mahi filets (2) from Whole Foods, thawed and 
poached them in a mixture of wine and water.  Let them cool and flaked 
them.  Added them in with chopped tomatoes (2), fresh basil and 
drizzled it with balsamic.  Ate it with some pita chips.

I used Asiago cheese, and 1/2 tsp. of red pepper flakes, and 
whole wheat orzo.  Excellent recipe.

Mary, that looks good minus the shrimp [but with chicken or something in
 its place; I don't do seafood!].  :-)

So *that's* what happened to my asiago cheese!  :)

(The results were well worth it, I hasten to add.)

The last thing I cooked was Ina Garten's French potato salad, the recipe
for which I think I've already posted.

I have made about three of her recipes and they all ended up being 
favorites of their type.  She's good.  It makes me sad that she's being 
beat-up some because she has no formal chef training.  I guess being a 
famous foodie isn't as easy as it looks. ;-)

And yet Rachael Ray is everywhere?  That makes no sense to me.

Rachael Ray is the most annoying thing ever to emerge from Food Network.

She is kinda loud.  And sometimes I think that anyone that bubbly must go 
home and drown goldfish in Listerine as a release.

It's an Italian thing.  That's why she can cook and you watch.

I made turkey pumpkin goulash for dinner - it's a recipe I got from 
Bon Appetit that looked good.  I've sampled it from the pot (dinner is 
in 30 minutes) - it has a nice flavor and is a fairly lean dish.

I've also started baking for Christmas, so I have about 10 dozen 
peanut blossoms and 3 loaves of pumpkin bread in the freezer.  My 
house has smelled *awesome* this weekend.

The goulash sounds wonderful.  What a nice fall meal.

Speaking of fall, WHERE IS IT?  It's so hot and humid here and I'm so 
ready to go into soup-making mode.

Tonight we had a mustard glazed pork tenderloin, served with roasted 
asparagus.  Nothing new there.  But intead of the usual pilaf or roasted 
potato I paired it with a pear salad.  (It had to be said. ;-) )

Adapted from Eating Well's web site, it consisted of chunked ripe pear, 
celery, chopped pecans and dried cranberries.  The dressing was a 
mixture of bottled fat-free raspberry vinaigrette and honey.  So simple 
but it worked.
