As some notes and forum post bounce around my brain wishing that I found out what happened next, it occurred to me that one way to find out would be encouraging occassional guest blogs e.g.
- after learning to make Chinese noodles from a step-mother, what was learned and what cookbooks would you now recommend to others who don't have a Chinese step-mother
- after substituting beef for reindeer, bluesberries for bilberries etc. what did you learn about Scandinavian recipes and which translate into American ingredients well
- okay. You went to Egypt. Now what do you think about the Egyptian soup cook book
- yeah, yeah, you've nicely indexed the German, Spanish, Japenese cookbooks ... what can you tell others about the cookbook scene in that language
- so you built an annotated bibliography of Julia Child, Anthony Bourdain, Victor Pelligrini, James Beard, or a restaurant or an ingredient ... care to share?
Some of these ideas might work, some might not, others with a better pulse on the community might have much better ideas. But I know that at least one person (me) would enjoy an occassional blog entry from members of the EYB community.
