where skin porn and food porn collide


where skin porn and food porn collide 03/23/2005 10:09 AM

mmmm

It's fun to use google and see what it returns when searching for 'sticky buns' as, well, the imagination is a poor substitute for reality. When food and skin porn collide it gets fairly ugly pretty quickly. Sticky buns are likely the source of inspiration for the Finnish bostonkakku which are served like a pie rather than the individual buns. One of the guys at work quipped that it is served this way because you can feed 20 instead of 8 people.

I figured that since I was making dallaspulla that I'd make the inspiration for texaspulla and bostonkakku so that my test subjects would know just what they had been missing all these years. :) The dough is a snap to make even without a mixer and is much easier to work with than the pulla dough. The only drawback is the time spent waiting for the dough to rise. With a four-day weekend approaching where absolutely nothing will be open and we'll likely have crappy weather given that it's a holiday, what could be better than making a pan of sticky buns and eating them instead of chocolate eggs? These are, by far, the best cinnamon rolls I've ever made and my test subjects consumed them in a shark chum feeding frenzy. Two guys even asked me for the recipe.

Sticky Buns, a.k.a. caramel rolls or cinnamon rolls

Makes: 12 sticky buns
Time: ~30 minutes prep, 3 hours for dough rising
Source: Cook's Illustrated

This recipe has four components: the dough that is shaped into buns, the filling that creates the swirl in the shaped buns, the caramel glaze that bakes in the bottom of the baking dish along with the buns, and the pecan topping that garnishes the buns once baked. Although the ingredient list may look long, note that many ingredients are repeated. Leftover sticky buns can be wrapped in foil or plastic wrap and refrigerated for up to 3 days, but they should be warmed through before serving. They reheat quickly in a microwave oven (for 2 buns, about 2 minutes at 50 percent power works well); they can also be put into a 325F/175C-degree oven for about 8 minutes.

Dough

  • 3 large eggs at room temperature
  • 3/4 cup buttermilk (2 dl piima) at room temperature
  • 1/4 cup (.5 dl) granulated sugar 
  • 1 1/4 teaspoons table salt 
  • 2 1/4 teaspoons instant yeast  (1 packet sunnuntai dry yeast)
  • 4 1/4 cups (10,5 dl) unbleached all-purpose flour, plus additional for dusting work surface
  • 6 tablespoons (85g) unsalted butter, melted and cooled until warm
  1. In bowl of standing mixer, whisk eggs; add buttermilk and whisk to combine.
  2. Whisk in sugar, salt, and yeast.
  3. Add about 2 cups (5 dl) flour and butter; stir with wooden spoon or rubber spatula until evenly moistened and combined.
  4. Add all but about 1/4 cup (1/2 dl) remaining flour and knead with dough hook at low speed 5 minutes.
  5. Check consistency of dough (dough should feel soft and moist but should not be wet and sticky; add more flour, if necessary); knead at low speed 5 minutes longer (dough should clear sides of bowl but stick to bottom).
  6. Turn dough out onto lightly floured work surface; knead by hand about 1 minute to ensure that dough is uniform (dough should not stick to work surface during hand kneading; if it does stick, knead in additional flour 1 tablespoon at a time).
  7. Lightly spray large bowl or plastic container with nonstick cooking spray. Transfer dough to bowl, spray dough lightly with cooking spray, then cover bowl tightly with plastic wrap.
  8. Set in warm, draftfree spot until doubled in volume, 2 to 2 1/2 hours.

Caramel Glaze

  • 6 tablespoons or 85g unsalted butter 
  • 3/4 cup (1,75 dl) light brown sugar, packed
  • 3 tablespoons corn syrup, light or dark
  • 2 tablespoons heavy cream 
  • 1 pinch table salt 
  1. Meanwhile, combine all ingredients for glaze in small saucepan.
  2. Cook over medium heat, whisking occasionally, until butter is melted and mixture is thoroughly combined.
  3. Pour mixture into nonstick metal 13- by 9-inch (33cm x 23cm) baking dish.
  4. Using rubber spatula, spread mixture to cover surface of baking dish.
  5. Set baking dish aside.

Cinnamon-Sugar Filling

  • 3/4 cup (1,75 dl) light brown sugar, packed
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon 
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves 
  • 1 pinch table salt 
  • 1 tablespoon or 15g unsalted butter, melted
  • Raisins (optional)
  1. Combine brown sugar, cinnamon, cloves, and salt in small bowl.
  2. Mix with a fork until thoroughly combined, using fingers to break up sugar lumps.
  3. Set aside.

To assemble and bake buns:

  1. Turn dough out onto lightly floured work surface.
  2. Gently shape dough into rough rectangle with long side nearest you.
  3. Lightly flour dough and roll to 16-inch x 12-inch (40cm x 30cm) rectangle.
  4. Brush dough with 1 tablespoon melted butter, leaving 1/2-inch border along top edge; with butter remaining on brush, brush sides of baking dish.
  5. Sprinkle filling mixture over dough, leaving 3/4-inch border along top edge; smooth filling in even layer with your hand, then gently press mixture into dough to adhere. Add rasins if you desire.
  6. Beginning with long edge nearest you, roll dough into taut cylinder.
  7. Firmly pinch seam to seal and roll cylinder seam-side down.
  8. Very gently stretch to cylinder of even diameter and 18-inch (45 cm) length; push ends in to create even thickness.
  9. Using a serrated knife and gentle sawing motion, slice cylinder in half, then slice each half in half again to create evenly sized quarters.
  10. Slice each quarter evenly into thirds, yielding 12 ~1.5 inch (3,75 cm) buns (end pieces may be slightly smaller).
  11. Arrange buns cut-side down in prepared baking dish.
  12. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and set in warm, draft-free spot until puffy and pressed against one another, about 1 hour.
  13. Meanwhile, adjust oven rack to lowest position, place pizza stone (if using) on rack, and heat oven to 350F/175C degrees.
  14. Place baking pan on pizza stone; bake until golden brown and center of dough registers about 180F/82C degrees on instant-read thermometer, 25 to 30 minutes.
  15. Cool on wire rack 10 minutes; invert onto rimmed baking sheet, large rectangular platter, or cutting board.
  16. With rubber spatula, scrape any glaze remaining in baking pan onto buns; let cool while making pecan topping.

Pecan Topping

  • 3 tablespoons or 50g unsalted butter 
  • 1/4 cup (.5 dl) light brown sugar, packed
  • 3 tablespoons corn syrup, light or dark
  • 1 pinch table salt 
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract  or vanilla sugar
  • 3/4 cup (1,75 dl) pecans or walnuts, toasted in a skillet over medium heat until fragrant and browned, about 5 minutes, then cooled and coarsely chopped
  1. Combine butter, brown sugar, corn syrup, and salt in small saucepan and bring to simmer over medium heat, whisking occasionally to thoroughly combine.
  2. Off heat, stir in vanilla and pecans until pecans are evenly coated.
  3. Using soup spoon, pour heaping tablespoon of nuts and topping over center of each sticky bun.
  4. Continue to cool until sticky buns are warm, 15 to 20 minutes.
  5. Pull apart or use knife to cut apart sticky buns; serve.

Storing on paper: This seems pretty useless, but very cool nonetheless. So a lot like Ashton Kutcher, really.

Tokyo's Yomiuri Shimbun, Japan’s leading newspaper, has been printing on the corner of a page a series of black dots, which are not Japenese characters. These black dots are in a tight, uneven pattern. From a distance it looks like a woven fabric, and closely it looks like a snowy TV screen. When this page is fed through a scanner, the true nature of the image is revealed: it’s software — a computer data. In this way, the newspaper is sending music files, video games software, etc., to its 10 million customers.

Here's the Web site of the company that makes the technology. Some interesting reading there.

I found this via a neat new blog called hypulp which I found via Metafilter.

just a geek's first newspaper review!


just a geek's first newspaper review! 12/19/2004 03:48 PM

Okay, I'll admit it. I have a "Wil Wheaton" as a Google News Alert. I'd say it's an ego thing . . . but it gets triggered so rarely, that's sort of counterintuitive. It's actually a business thing, so I can be aware press and stuff, but I'll be honest: I do get a little thrill when one hits my inbox.

So about a week ago, I got a news alert because I was very kindly mentioned in a brief bit about Sean Astin in the Oregonian:


You loved him as loyal hobbit Sam Gamgee in the "Lord of the Rings" films. You adored him in "Rudy." But to you, Astin will always be the kid from "The Goonies," a film that is widely considered The Best Movie Ever Filmed In Oregon. Hold onto your mithril, kids: Astin is coming to Portland. Naturally, you will want to show him a good time.

A Sean Astin autobiography? Well, sure. (Like you didn't positively inhale the latest Wil Wheaton book.) Astin's opus, "There and Back Again: An Actor's Tale," spills the candid scoop on backstage antics during the filming of "The Lord of the Rings" and the challenges of living the Hollywood way.


(dorky bolding is mine)

I was so excited, I sent a note to the reporter that said:

I just finished reading your OregonLive piece about Sean Astin's impending visit to Portland ("Let's go!," by Chelsea Cain, A&E, Dec. 3), and I wanted to thank you for kindly mentioning my book, "Just a Geek." I've got strong connections to Oregon (I filmed "Stand by Me" in Eugene, and my wife is from Portland), so even though I'm from Los Angeles, I felt like I saw my name in my hometown paper. Thanks for that! :)

See ya, Wil Wheaton Los Angeles

She wrote me back and thanked me for e-mailing, I wrote her back again, (it's sort of like passing notes in class, without the possible thrill of getting caught) one thing led to another . . . and she wrote a story about me that is in today's Oregonian! My three favorite bits:


  • Since the success of his blog, Wheaton has published two laugh-out-loud books and established himself as a fresh, funny and self-deprecating writer. Much of his material comes out of his life as a geek (he also pens a column for Dungeon Magazine, the must-read for D&D players).

    The Oregonian recently caught up with the ensign-turned-author for a Very Serious Interview.


  • Have you ever read any "Star Trek" fan fiction?

    Just one . . . and in it, Lt. Worf traded my character, Wesley, to a Romulan for a Romulan Ale and two packs of smokes. I haven't read fan fiction since.

    [I originally said that Wesley was Worf's Prision Bitch, but that was ruled unacceptable for a family publication . . . which I guess I've just determined WWdN is not.]


  • Whose work do you read to get inspired?

    David Sedaris and Stephen King are the two most influential authors in my life. They both tell stories in ways that are engaging and easy to read. David Sedaris' "Me Talk Pretty One Day" made me want to tell stories about my life, and Stephen King's "On Writing" taught me how to do it.



Accompanying the story is the very first mainstream media review of Just A Geek! It's phenomenal, and includes the following observation, which made me so happy, I peed a little:

"Just a Geek" is not a celebrity memoir. It is more a collection of humorous commentaries with one essential theme: How does a grown-up geek with two step-kids, a wife, and few job prospects make a go of it?

[Wheaton's] sarcasm, honesty, heart and ferocious gift for dialogue are a delight.


So far, I haven't been able to effectively communicate to people who haven't read my book that it's not limited to a Star Trek or celebrity memoir-reading audience, and people outside that audience may want to give Just A Geek a chance. It has been the most frustrating thing in the world, and it's severely limited the audience that I can reach. To date, I haven't gotten any support to reach beyond . . . well, you guys who read WWdN, so I've had to do it on my own. I've felt pretty down about the whole thing recently (it's about 90% of the not sleeping well thing), because things are not going the way I expected they would with Just A Geek, but this fantastic review is going to be a big help, and will hopefully open a lot of doors for me.


A Final Newspaper Column, and My Thanks


A Final Newspaper Column, and My Thanks 01/02/2005 02:09 PM

(This is also my final Sunday column in the San Jose Mercury News.) Wow, what a ride. I moved to Silicon Valley a little over 10 years ago. I've been constantly amazed by what has happened here since then -- a furious rush of innovation and change. I'm not smart or wise enough to predict in any detail what will happen in the next decade. But I'm certain that, as always, it'll be interesting, because innovation and change are still the coins of this realm. It didn't take long to learn what made Silicon Valley so special. The combination of attributes was unequaled: the great research universities, an astonishing collection of talent, a pool of investors with enormous sums at their disposal and an ingrained culture of risk-taking. (The weather's nice, too.) The willingness -- no, eagerness -- to take risks has always been the valley's most special quality. In most places, business failure leaves an indelible career stain. Here, failure is often seen as an education, provided one fails the right way, which is to say not stupidly or sleazily. The rise and fall of Apple's fascinating but flawed Newton handheld computer, for example, helped spark the Palm Pilot, the true breakthrough in the genre. I won't forget the shiver of excitement I and others in a crowd of tech executives and journalists felt when we saw the first Palm on the 1996 Demo conference stage. We don't think of the Apple iPod or today's ever-smarter mobile phones as more modern handheld computers, but they are. They're also a result of the valley's relentless progress. The chips powering not just PCs but all kinds of everyday objects are making everything more intelligent. Even faster advances in storage mean that all these intelligent things are gaining memory. And the advent of faster data networks -- still retarded by cable and phone companies, unfortunately -- means that we're connecting it all. Those intelligent connections are bringing vast capabilities to the people at the edges of networks. The long-range importance of early Internet file-sharing was not the potential for copyright infringement. It was the heightened ability of everyday people to inform and help each other. Along the way, we went through the bubble years, a time when greed totally superseded all other principles and values. The prevailing Wall Street attitude, which also pervaded the valley, was sickening. When what's acceptable is what you can get away with, society has turned rancid. The bubble's deflation was hellish for those who became collateral damage. But it was useful in reminding us that even in such a fast-changing world, a few tried-and-true principles, economic and otherwise, still applied. In the past several years the valley has returned, in part, to useful roots. Innovation and building great companies matter as much to entrepreneurs as scoring big financially. And everywhere I look, I see innovation. But I also see competition where it didn't exist before. The rest of the world has learned some of the valley's lessons and can provide much of what we do here at a lower cost. This is the harsh dynamism of the modern world at work. The fact that other regions are rising economically is positive overall, even if it's not the best news locally. As noted, I'm not smart enough to tell you what's coming in any specific way. But we can look together at the trends and imagine some of what might be, if all goes well. We will see breathtaking leaps in medicine, environmental protection, and a variety of materials sciences and manufacturing processes. We can thank advances in biotechnology and the emerging field of nanotechnology. Information technology is at the heart of both as a tool, and it will remain so. The Internet and its progeny are still early in their development, meanwhile. The Net is nowhere near as universal as it will be when we enter an age of what some call ubiquitous computing, but the outlines of its value are obvious today. For example, all media will eventually move around the world in little digital packages, called packets, that are the basic units of tomorrow's communications. The importance of this -- in decimating old businesses while improving most people's lives -- has not been sufficiently appreciated. The risks are growing, too. When the ability to do great things spreads away from the center, so does the ability to do massively dangerous things. The power of one fanatic or small group to create incalculable damage -- assuming we don't do it simply by mistake -- should worry everyone. But we should not allow that concern to stifle progress. And, as always, the people and institutions currently holding the clout don't cede it willingly. Governments are clamping down on us in all kinds of ways. Incumbent business powerhouses are trying to hold back the tide as well, not just to keep their positions but also to thwart new innovation that might threaten them. These reactionary encroachments and retrenchments are not surprising. They always occur in times of swift change and challenge. In the end, they are almost always unsuccessful, because progress ultimately finds a way around barriers, and because people challenge the reactionaries. But we need to keep the pressure up, as citizens and people who want the freedom to use these new tools and live in liberty. The stakes are high, and liberty takes work. This is my last column for the Mercury News. Starting tomorrow, I'll embark on a new adventure, a project to help bring online grass-roots journalism to more people and communities. I leave a job that has been a constant challenge in the best sense, often an outright joy. I leave colleagues whom I like and admire. But this opportunity, to help create something truly new and valuable, is too exciting not to try. During these past 10 years I've enjoyed a privileged, front-row seat -- not on a roller coaster, even if it occasionally seemed that way, but a vehicle of exploration. I'm grateful for the opportunity to have taken this fantastic ride. Mostly, though, I'm grateful to you. This has always been about you, the people who read what I write. I've tried to be on your side. Even when you've disagreed with me, you've been on my side in a vital way. You've challenged me to think deeply about technology and the larger issues we must all ponder and deal with in this complex era. You've always known more than I do, and I'm fortunate that you haven't been shy about telling me. Our conversation -- which I hope we'll continue as my new project gets under way -- has been a constant source of inspiration. If it's meant something to you, that pleases me more than I can say. Thank you all.

Since then other prominent sites like ESPN and PGA have jumped on the standards bandwagon, as have countless personal sites. Today the SF Examiner launched a new site design which does validate as xhtml. More interesting to me are their category archives and date archives, which mimic a weblog's simple and useful layout. Heck, I even love the story pages which feature large leaded text (space between lines - the amount of "double spaceness") which is also blog-like, and makes for comfortable reading. As far as I know, SF Examiner is the first, but will this start a new wave of bandwidth-saving, well-designed newspaper redesigns? [via veen]
