Inspired by both the blog Alinea At Home (http://alineaathome.typepad.com/) and by Grant Achatz’ comment from the November 2008 issue of Chicago magazine where he said:

"…the recipes are not hard. I challenge anyone to find a recipe in that book that is more complicated than your basic scratch chocolate cake,”

I have taken it upon myself to cook as much from the Alinea cookbook as I can.

I don’t mean to be a braggart, Mr. Achatz, but I make a mean chocolate cake.

For my first experiment, I’ve made Alinea’s take on the American lunchbox classic, PB&J.

It ain’t perfect, but I’m damn proud of how these eight little bread and PB wrapped grapes turned out.

Now I can make food just like this place. Although I doubt I’ll be making Picholine Olive Oil Brine Candy anytime soon. The bacon with butterscotch, apple and thyme could happen though…

Also this book is really beautiful and HUGE (I think it could totally beat up the French Laundry Cookbook), and only at Chapters. This concludes my free publicity.
