Another Use for Twitter: Cooking

While I’m sure many of you aren’t into Twitter, we’ve been twittering for about a month or so over on SideDish, and I think it’s pretty fun. I love reading tweets from people like F&W’s Dana Cowin, Gail Simmons and Kate Krader, Gourmet’s Ruth Reichl, all the folks at EaterNY, and local chefs Blythe Beck and Kent Rathbun. It’s just another way for me to get information and learn what’s going on out there.

Anyway, enough about us. The New York Times has an interesting article on recipe twittering. Basically, there’s a woman in Northern Ireland who only tweets recipes. She finds it a challenge to see if she can condense them into 140 characters or less. Here is one example:

Strudel Pastry: cut 2T butter/1c flour/mash tater. Knead w 2t yeast/2T h2o; rise 1h. On flour cloth gently pull 17×25″; trim-1″/butter well.

and another:

Kashgar Noodles: mix3.5c flour/2egg/t salt; knead+12T h2o. Cut4; roll30×10cm/12×4″. Cut crosswise cm/.5″. Cvr30m.Pinch+stretch dbl. Boil6m.

Find her at twitter.com/cookbook, for those of you who are into it.

Get Dallas Restaurant Updates On Twitter

A few days ago I asked local restaurants to let me know if they were streaming deals on Twitter. So far only two have responded. I’m going to add a Twitter Deals category to the site so that you can keep up with the updated list. Restaurants, send me you Twitter address.

* From Donna Tanner at Abacus:

Oh girl, he [Kent] is already there: http://twitter.com/chef911

*From Keri Streiber Maggiano’s:

Maggiano’s is on Twitter!  Check us out – http://twitter.com/maggianos.
We’ve done a contest/giveaway or two and tried to help coordinate some tweet-ups at various locations.  But the biggest benefit is talking straight to our guests.  Some tweet about great experiences, some mention not-so-great experiences.  But we’re able to read and react to them all – directly and in almost real-time.
