#140food: Recipes in 132 Characters or Less


Intrigued by this challenge - to write a tweet-sized recipe, including the 8 character hashtag of #140food - I submitted this: #140food Earthy Braised Lamb Shanks. Dredge lamb shanks in flour. Brown in oil. Braise for 3 hours in coffee and beer with shitake mushrooms

Here are a few of my favorites! I'm shocked...I could actually follow some of these. What do you think? Repeatable?!?

When I parked the car outside Frozen Art Gourmet Ice Cream in Santa Rosa, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. We knew that we still had to get to the campsite...and set up our tents in the heat.

Purists, however, claim that operating a true Michoacana ice cream shop require ties to Tocumbo.

But the real art of Tocumban ice creams: imaginat...
