Dispelling Kitchen Myths

Okay, two quick posts in one.

First, del.icio.us has been around for a while, but I never really found a need for bookmarking things on a website rather than in my browser. I didn't really "get" it. The appearance of Oishii, which gives you an instant snapshot of what other people are bookmarking right now and how popular they are, made it all sink in for me. Just watching the oishii stream for a few minutes can blow your mind, as cool stuff comes across here just about once every second. There's even an RSS feed for your favorite feed reader.

Watching the stream, I came across "Kitchen Myths". I often find myself combating kitchen "laws" which seem dubious at best, and debunking a few of those was right up my alley. Definitely worth a look, whether you're new to the kitchen or know a few of these "laws" yourself.
