comment 'Lighter' version of American breakfast
That's some really good suggestions, exactly what I was looking for. Some of the things (like the Turkey bacon) are not obvious to everyone.

comment Use any part of an animal for making stock/broth?
In my case I just used bones and meat (and fat) to make something in between stock and broth, I guess. I suppose I just have to skim of the fat from the top and it should be fine. Thanks.

comment What herbs and spices should a beginner cook have?
I'd also recommend dried chili flakes (or whole) to spice up sauces etc. They're usually really easy to get in any supermarket. I often use it for tomato pasta sauces.

comment Advice for soon-to-be college student
+1 for Good Eats, it's a great show. Often I want to repeat what he did and many recipes are not that hard, even for a beginner. I always find it very inspiring to watch a professional cook.

comment Properties of a good steak?
Anthony Bourdain mentions several times in the Les Halles Cookbook that he doesn't like sirloin because it doesn't have enough flavor. Personally, I haven't done enough comparisons to be able to agree or disagree.
