It's creeping back in: the cold. Coats are already a necessity for going outside. Each day the frost covers a little bit more of the car windshield. And the freezing wood floor makes getting out of bed in the morning an increasingly painful proposition. The good news is that with the chilly weather comes an excuse to indulge in our favorite comfort foods, from decadent desserts to rich, savory entrees. The dishes that were too heavy to stomach during the scorching summer now get us through the cold months with their stick-to-the-ribs qualities.
In our new fall edition of Dish, City Newspaper's food and dining guide, you'll find several food articles perfect for autumn and beyond. Is your refrigerator home to leftover take-out rice containers? Put them to use by making an exotic fried rice dish, or gooey cheesy rice, or sweet rice pudding; you'll find all the recipes inside. If you need more ideas for whiling away the winter in your home kitchen, we've got a survey of unexpected cookbooks that should keep you busy. Or if you're looking pack on some pounds to withstand the winter chill - or just want to indulge in the most indulgent of desserts - our cheesecake taste test should get your mouth watering. Now's the time to dig in: swimsuit season has never been farther away!
