We're a sucker for any cooking show that's procedural and not competitive, so we're kowtowing PR's bidding here. Food expert Aida Mollenkamp is having a Q&A show on the Food Network where she will answer viewers' most pressing questions about the culinary arts. And since the questions will be posed in video form and shown on TV, you can use up your 15 minutes of fame by asking her how to make the a time-saving cog au vin or the perfect meatloaf.
They're looking for queries that use the following topics as guidelines: Easy as Pie, Steak and Potatoes, Hot off the Grill, Weeknight Dinners, Eggs, Chicken, Southern Comfort, Catch of the Day, Double Dip, Mexican Night, Pasta in Presto, Sweet Morning, and Lasagna.
Upload your :45-:60 second filmed questions at www.foodnetwork.com/aida And make sure they're creative and interesting.
While we're on the subject of food questions, where can we find a whole truffle? One that's not swimming in oil? Even Whole Foods couldn't help us.
