Have you heard of ChefsLine? It's a great online resource for home cooks. You can call a chef directly and ask food and cooking questions, sign up for a video or a class by podcast (just download it to your mp3 player), or learn how to cook like the rat in the new movie Ratatouille!

I'm one of the consulting chefs, and you can read my profile and see my menu suggestions for a great outdoor party or picnic. I'm developing a 30-minute class in Hands-Off techniques now that should be available soon. You'll learn neat tricks like cooking the pasta and sauce together for Meatballs and Marinara, and making a flavor-packed Thai Beef Curry without standing over the stove.

Or, you can book a one-on-one consultation with me by clicking the green "Schedule One-on-One" button on my profile. There's also a link to my Tandoorish Chicken--a great oven-baked chicken dish flavored with yogurt and Indian spices. It's great hot or cold.

Check it out--and tell them I sent you.
