Recipe: Lavender Shortbread Cookies
Even if you're not planning on tuning in to tomorrow's hoopla across the pond, we're sure you'll find a reason to bake a batch of these sweet and floral shortbread cookies. Get the recipe here.
Recipe: Korean-Style Clams
We're loving this vibrant spin on steamed clams from Joe Isidori. The Long Island chef arranges littlenecks on a bed of soft cabbage and bacon lardons, then adds his bracing housemade kimchi and a scattering of fresh herbs. If you make the Korean condiment tonight, it will be ready for when you tackle the rest of the recipe this weekend.
Don't want to do all that work? You can enjoy this dish at tonight's Beard House dinner instead.

Interview with Rising Star Nominee Sue Zemanick
Though she's already packed her knives and left the latest season of Top Chef Masters, we think Sue Zemanick of Gautreau's is doing just fine. After all, the New Orleans star has nabbed a nomination for our Rising Star Chef of the Year Award three years in a row. Read on to discover what she told us about her favorite eats in the Crescent City and more.
JBF: Gautreau's is the second restaurant you’ve worked at in New Orleans. What is it about working in that city that appeals to you?
SZ: I love the people and culture. Everyone in NOLA loves great food, music, and cocktails, and that’s basically all that we do—eat amazing food, listen to live music, and enjoy delicious drinks.
JBF: Have you felt any impact from the oil spill at your restaurant?
SZ: Yes. People were afraid to come to New
