What Is the Job Outlook for a Chef Garde Manger?

by Fred Decker

Legendary French chef Escoffier brought restaurant cooking to a new level of organization and professionalism, organizing kitchen staff into a structured brigade of skilled workers. The garde manger chef was among the most skilled of those positions. Garde manger translates literally as "protector of the food," which describes the cook's responsibility for turning leftovers and cured foods into salads, cold appetizers and other profitable items. That's still done in many restaurants, though the position is often less formal and less skilled.

Garde Manger Duties

The garde manger position in modern restaurants covers two very different sets of duties. In the simplest definition, it describes any cook who prepares cold foods such as salads, sandwiches, hors d'oeuvres or trays of cured meats. These are often entry-level, minimally skilled positions. At the other end of the spectrum, garde manger duties at high-end hotels and fine-dining restaurants require chefs to exercise the full range of classical techniques, such as making pates and terrines, curing and smoking artisanal meats in-house, and overseeing lavish displays of flavorful canapes.

The Job Outlook

The prospects for garde manger specialists are difficult to define, because in modern restaurants most line cooks share traditional garde manger duties such as transforming leftovers into the next day's special. Entry-level garde manger jobs are included in the Bureau of Labor Statistics' "Cook" category, which projects 13 percent growth for restaurant cooks and 15 percent for "all other." Those figures don't include job openings created by people leaving the profession. High-end garde manger chefs are represented in the BLS category of "Chefs and Head Cooks," which the BLS projects to have no employment growth at all through 2020.

Limiting Factors

The limited growth in garde manger jobs can be traced to several factors. In many restaurants, garde manger duties are divided among the line and prep cooks, leaving no place for a specialized employee. In upscale restaurants, budgetary constraints might make it impossible to hire a specialized garde manger chef. The skills needed to do garde manger at a high level require extensive training and experience, and cooks who have them expect a suitable level of compensation. Changes in taste have also made many traditional skills obsolete, downplaying the elaborate and artificial buffet show pieces that once formed a large part of the garde manger's duties.

Positive Factors

On the other hand, chefs who wish to specialize in garde manger are well positioned to exploit the widespread interest in traditional, artisanal foods. Restaurants across the country are curing their own meats, grinding their own sausages and making their own pates from premium local ingredients as a way to draw in customers looking for unusual and distinctive meals. Garde manger chefs who can provide a restaurant with that competitive edge should be able to find work, especially if they're willing to relocate. A garde manger who excels in reworking leftovers into new dishes can be a valuable asset in a high-volume hotel or banquet center. Garde mangers with an entrepreneurial streak might also start their own company, supplying local restaurants and hotels.

Lew Expected To Be Confirmed As Treasury Secretary

Feb 14, 2013
Originally published on February 15, 2013 2:05 am

Jack Lew, President Obama's pick for Treasury secretary, appears headed toward confirmation by the full Senate. He fared well during his confirmation hearing at the Senate Finance Committee yesterday.

But as NPR's John Ydstie reports, Lew did get some pointed questions from Republicans about his brief career in the private sector as an executive of Citigroup.

JOHN YDSTIE, BYLINE: Lew was at Citigroup from 2006 to 2009 as the financial crisis hit, and he received a $940,000 bonus, just as the giant bank received a government bailout.

Asked whether it was immoral to accept the bonus, Lew, said he'd performed well for the company during that period.

JACK LEW: And I was compensated for my work. I'll leave for others to judge.

Lew was also questioned about his personal investment in an offshore private equity fund. Its address was a building in the Cayman Islands, which President Obama has referred to as the largest tax scam in the world. Lew said he initially wasn't aware of its location and he sold the investment in 2010.

I took a loss when I sold the investment. I always reported all income. I always paid any taxes that were due.

YDSTIE: As for more immediate matters, Lew said Congress and the White House must come up with an alternative to the $85 billion in automatic budget cuts scheduled for March 1st or risk serious damage to the economy.

Power outage knocks out day one of school for Clay HS students

Classes start Wednesday in the South Bend School Corporation but not for students at Clay High School.

Clay is affected by the big power outage from the brief storms that swept through the area late Tuesday afternoon.

South Bend Schools spokeswoman Sue Coney tells WSBT I&M doesn't expect the power at Clay to be back on until as late as noon on Thursday, so school officials decided to close Clay on Wednesday for the safety of students.

A utility pole was apparently knocked down in the area.

Clay High School is the only South Bend school affected.

Students at nearby Clay Middle School will have to report to class in the morning.

Faculty and staff at the high school are required to report to work despite the power outage.

Visiting the hospital in a rural area can be a challenge for Medicare patients because of scattered locations and a lack of healthcare professionals. But returning to the hospital for a follow-up visit is even more difficult, according to a new study from researchers at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.

This is the Affordable Care Act’s third open enrollment season and Obama Administration officials expect at least one million more people will enroll by the end of next year.

The increase in the country’s insured population has resulted in major growth in one profession in particular – the physician assistant. This year, Duke University is celebrating the 50th anniversary of its Physician Assistant Program, the oldest in the country.

People who live in rural North Carolina are still more likely to suffer from serious health problems than their urban counterparts. Rural counties show higher rates of heart disease and obesity, and rural residents have a lower life expectancy.

The recent closures of rural hospitals around the state makes those residents even more vulnerable. Research shows that systemic problems like slow economic development and spotty insurance coverage also contribute to rural health disparities.

Campbell University plans to open a new School of Nursing in rural Harnett County in 2016. Graduates will earn a Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN).

Director Nancy Duffy says that's becoming the new standard for nursing jobs, especially with the population growing and Baby Boomers aging, dealing with more chronic illnesses.

“Really, healthcare needs an entirely different kind of nurse in the future. And I hope we're able to start changing that education to meet that healthcare need.”

A bipartisan group of North Carolina lawmakers is proposing a measure to get more fruits and vegetables to urban and rural areas devoid of grocery stores or healthful food options.

The plan, filed in separate bills in the House and Senate on Tuesday, would set aside $1 million for produce refrigerators and training for store owners in areas known as food deserts. There are more than 340 food deserts across 80 counties in the state, advocacy groups say.

Belhaven Mayor Adam O'Neill says he's optimistic that the hospital in his town will reopen soon.

The non-profit Vidant Health closed the Pungo hospital there this summer, which served low-income and minority populations.

Mayor O'Neill walked nearly 300 miles to Washington, D.C. to ask regulators to look into the closure.

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services has agreed to investigate whether Vidant's closing of the hospital has displayed unlawful discrimination based on race and national origin.

HealthServe is closing in Greensboro this week and 20,000 people will have to find a medical provider elsewhere.

A state task force says rural communities need more strategic investments and partnerships to improve their residents' health.

The North Carolina Institute of Medicine's Task Force on Rural Health released a report Monday about health disparities in rural counties.

It says many of their childhood nutrition programs need more attention.  And local schools need more help to recruit health care professionals who will stay and work in rural North Carolina.

With days full of physical assessments, patient advocacy, connecting with patients' families, and communicating with physicians, a nurse’s work is never done. And when a hospital is understaffed or under-resourced, nurses take on more patients and extra shifts.

EMS officials in an eastern North Carolina county will have to expand their services as another rural hospital shuts down.

The Vidant Pungo Hospital in the town of Belhaven will be closed by next spring.  The facility is in Beaufort County, but it's the closest hospital for residents of neighboring Hyde County, which has about 6,000 people.

Hyde County EMS director Justin Gibbs says the next closest facilities with emergency services are about 30 miles farther away.

"We're going to have to look at rewriting our system plan," Gibbs says.

WUOT News, Matt Shafer Powell

  On Nov. 4, 2014, Tennesseans will go to the polls and vote on whether the state’s General Assembly should have the authority to regulate abortion. The so-called abortion amendment will appear on the ballot as “Amendment One” and if approved by voters, would add language to the state constitution that would read (in part), “Nothing in this constitution secures or protects a right to abortion.”

Oh, it’s Spring. What joy.

In honor of this turning of the seasons, I bring you a light little piece of fluff– the Pavlova.

When I was cooking at a little restaurant in the Mission called the Moa Room, my favorite Kiwi and boss, Chef Jan Gardner often let me run off and do my own thing with our desserts, which was rather brave of her. But not so when she felt the call to make her Pavlova– the most famous dessert to ever come out of New Zealand. I would stand back to watch her work, asking her to say things like “milk” and “bottle” so that I might be better able to imitate her accent as well as her dessert-making technique. She was a very patient woman who only occasionally would ask a co-worker if he or she wouldn’t mind punching me in the neck.

This pleasant breath of fresh air is rarely seen on San Francisco dessert menus, which I think is a pity. It is as light and airy as the dancing of its namesake, the most famous of all ballerinas, Anna Pavlova.

There is some argument as to the origin of this dessert. Australians claim it was birthed by Herbert Sachse of the Hotel Esplanade, Perth, Australia, citing in 1935 that the dish was “as light as Pavlova.” She stayed at the hotel while on tour in 1929. It just took him six years to come up with something clever to say about it.

New Zealand has an earlier, similar claim coming out of Wellington in 1926, when a hotel chef created a dish inspired by the shape of the touring dancer’s white tutu with green cabbage roses and frothy netting. I’m no social archaeologist, but I’ll just bet the farm he was gay.

Well, I love Australians, but I am siding with my friends from New Zealand on this one.

Jan Gardner shied away from kiwifruit, most likely because they are not echt New Zealand. To her, a kiwi is the smaller, non-extinct cousin of the moa. The Chinese Gooseberry arrived in the land of the dead moa from, unsurprisingly, China in 1904. The name “kiwifruit” was originally a marketing ploy. One that has worked all too well. Though this meringue happily supports a wide variety of fruit, I have used the kiwi because the original dish, as far as I can tell, contained them. Remember those green cabbage roses.

This is not Jan’s recipe. I never got it. I could just punch myself in the neck for not asking for
it. The recipe listed below is a culling of several.

For a great run down on how to approach a meringue, read Shuna’s take on the Pavlova.

For the Pavlova:

4 large egg whites, room temperature
1 cup of superfine sugar (you can make this out of table sugar by whizzing it in your Cuisinart.)
1 teaspoon white vinegar
1 tablespoon corn starch
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract. Tradition does not call for this, I just like it in my meringue.

For the Topping:

3/4 cup heavy whipping cream
1/4 cup buttermilk. Again, this is not traditional. I just prefer a bit of tang to compliment the
über-sweetness of the meringue.
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Fresh fruit. Tart is good. Things like kiwifruit, strawberries, raspberries, beri beri. I don’t care.
Passion fruit is really amazing with it, too.

1. Pre-heat oven to 300 F.

2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Create and cut out a separate circle of parchment paper about 7 inches in diameter. Cut out a matching circle of cardboard. Attach the parchment circle to cardboard with a smear of corn syrup or whatever you’ve got handy to adhere. I’ll bet even Elmer’s glue would work, though I would not recommend it. (Note: this cut out circle business isn’t absolutely necessary, but I find it helps me get a cleaner edge on the meringue.)

3. In the bowl of a stand mixer, whisk egg whites at slow speed (Thanks for the tip, Shuna), gradually increasing the speed as the volume of the whites increase. When the whites begin to hold a soft peak, add the sugar a little at a time to dissolve. Increase the speed and whip until the mixture is silken and holds stiff peaks.

4. Having made a slurry of your vinegar and cornstarch, stir to discourage any lumps. Sprinkle the slurry over the meringue and fold in.

5. Gently heap meringue onto your parchment disk, making certain to leave a shallow bowl in the center for eventual cream-and fruit-filling. Smooth the edges of the meringue for a clean look or make any sort of design you wish. Please email me if you’ve come up with anything interesting or vaguely obscene.

6. Place your meringue-topped cardboard parchment onto the lined baking sheet and place in oven. Bake for 15 minutes, turn off the heat and walk away. Baking should take about one hour, but it is best to peek in every once in a while to see how your creation is doing. The Pavlova should not brown, but take on a slight cream color. Leaving it in the oven to dry out a bit is a good thing.

The now-baked Pavlova will keep for up to a week when stored in non-humid conditions in an air-tight container.

7. For the topping, whip cream and buttermilk until soft peaks form. Gradually add sugar and vanilla, then whip a little more. You make chose to remove half the cream at this stage for spreading, whipping up the remainder for piping those tutu-like frills around the edge that I somehow failed to achieve.

8. Spread the whipped cream over the meringue. Top with the fruit of your choice, and serve immediately in the fifth position, thereby impressing your friends and family with your limberness of both lower body and culinary expertise.

Eat immediately.

    I was just in New Zealand where I had my first Pavlova experience. I don’t care if it was AUS or NZ that came up with it first, the light meringue and perfectly balanced sweetness won this American over right away. I doubt I’ll ever go through all the steps to make it at home, but would love to find a place that serves it in the Bay Area.

  • shuna fish lydon

    I would have to disagree with you that superfu=ine sugar can be made by pouring granulated sugar in a food processor, or even a mortar & pestle. (Any) meringue can indeed be made with granulated sugar although it’s true that superfine (also known as Baker’s or bartender’s sugar) works best.

    Also it’s important to note that egg whites should start as room temperature and the middle of a true Pavlova is soft.

  • Anonymous

    It is on the menu, of course, at the New Zealander in Alameda….the passion fruit sauce/syrup that finishes it off may not be traditional, but is quite good.

  • Michael Procopio

    Kat– Please read Anonymous’s suggestion of the New Zealander in Alameda. Of course, I’d love to go to NZ like you did but, for now, Alameda will have to do.

    Shuna– Oh, you’re so technical! I think it works just fine if one is in a pinch. If one is prepared, as I’m sure you are at all times, then yes, of course, superfine is superfine.

    And, yes, I should have mentioned the marshmallowy centre of the true Pavlova I made.

    Anonymous– Thanks for the head’s up on where to get a Pav. It is much appreciated…

She turned 8!

I can hardly believe it but Kaitlyn turned 8 this past Monday the 6th of August!

The way we celebrate birthdays is we let the girls pick what or where they would like to eat and an activity for the family to do. So this year Kaitlyn picked to eat at IHOP. She loves that place and as how we only go there maybe once a year she has been looking forward to going for a very long time. We went there for breakfast as that is her favorite, and only, meal that she has eaten there. And for her activity she picked to go to the Children's Museum here in Lakeland. It is called Explorations V. It is a good place to go with lots of activities for the kids to do. The best part is it is all hands on! They have a news studio, grocery store, school, doctors office, fire truck, theater, bank and orange juice plant. I am sure that there are more things but that is what we spent the bulk of our time doing there. We invited our friends to come along with us and play. So the girls had Olivia, Sara and Ean to play with also. unfortunately I forgot my camera at home so I do not have any from the museum.
After that we came back home and had dinner and a little party. All of the Roberts came to celebrate with us!!

This year she wanted an ice cream cake from Dairy Queen. She also had the horse them for her party supplies!

Also here is a card that I made for our friends that got married in June. As we were traveling before the wedding. We had to wait to get the gift to them till we got here. I knew what I wanted to get them just had to wait till we were settled a little to get it and send it up to them. So this is the card that I made to send along with the gift.I made it on a transparency! And thankfully it turned out how I had pictured it in my head.

Well that is all I have to say for now. So untill next time...

The Best Clarifier: Oribe's The Cleanse Clarifying Shampoo and Essential Antidote Replenishing Conditioner Review

I Bought It, Affiliate Links

Clarify All the Things: Oribe's The Cleanse Clarifying Shampoo and Essential Antidote Replenishing Conditioner Review

So, about a week or so ago my hair hit a breaking point. Not quite breaking I guess, but things were ok, and then OMGWTFBBQ things are sooooo not right!

And really, I should have seen this coming.

We put a pool in this summer at my house. Yes. We saved our pennies, and put in a pool (with many fancy safety covers, alarms, fences, etc), which means I'm now a peds ICU doctor with a pool. There aren't many of us out there. With a pool comes a lot of time in that pool, which I love! I'm the mom in the pool doing hand stands with my 5 year old. We swim around the deep end together, I throw her in the shallow end... you get the idea. I'm not the mom lounging by the side of the pool. I'm in there enjoying it.

As a result of our time in the water, my 5 year old's dark blonde hair has had a bit of a greenish tinge, which inspired a massive experiment with different clarifying shampoos and treatments. And a freelance post over on eBay: In the Pool: Why Your Hair Turns Green And How to Fix It. My daughter's hair is much better now.

But, in all of the excitement about my daughter's hair, I completely ignored my own hair. I was focused on color, and since I hadn't seen any changes in my own balayage highlights, I ignored the increasing manageability issues I was having. It was taking longer to dry my hair, it wasn't curling easily and my hair was going flat more quickly. A lot of that could be explained by the humidity.

And then came that critical morning, and it took me about 45 minutes to dry my hair. Really. It "usually" takes about 12 minutes or so. And even at the end of 45 minutes, my hair just felt gross. It was a little sticky, rough and still didn't feel completely dry. The ends were horribly frizzy and looked full of split ends (which I don't have), and no amount of product was helping.

I needed to clarify my hair, and do it fast. I confess that I tried a product that we had at home (I'll share which ones and my thoughts in a later post rounding all of them up), but really, nothing was really fully removing all of the build up. It was about 30% better with a few shampoos with a clarifying shampoo (I've thrown that one out).

I decided it was time to really splurge and at least trying a clarifying shampoo and conditioner duo that wouldn't dry out my hair. So I went for the big guns, I ran to the Ann Arbor BlueMercury and I splurged on Oribe (I might have a bit of an Oribe problem, here are my favorite products from Oribe).

Read on to learn more about Oribe's foaming clarifying shampoo and conditioner.

Clarify All the Things: Oribe's The Cleanse Clarifying Shampoo and Essential Antidote Replenishing Conditioner Review

So, the biggest things that sets these products apart is that they come in the same cans as Oribe's mousses. They come out and foam, and I was a bit worried about what to expect from them.

The shampoo feels like a heavy mousse, it is definitely a bit airy. It's a dark grey color because the formulation has volcanic ash to help exfoliate. It has one of those kind of masculine, kind of 1980's scents that Oribe and Kerastase seem to like so much. I wasn't a big fan of that in the shower, but once it has washed out the scent was something I only smelled if I was really trying to smell my hair. The shampoo really works up a lather, and it rinses out very easily. Apparently the secret behind the shampoo is that it really just polishes off dirt, oil, and product buildup, rather than trying to dissolve and wash it away like other shampoos.

There is a conditioner to pair with the shampoo, and I decided to buy it as well in a "go big or go home" beauty moment. Likely I didn't really need to use both, because the shampoo is just that amazing. The conditioner is a bit less airy and more liquid than the shampoo, and it's a faint off white/yellow color. When I used it, my initial thought was "this smells like fresh cut apples". But, it isn't very apple. It's that first moment that you've cut into the apple, when it is just fresh and there's a little bit of a bite or tang, and it is almost citrusy? This conditioner smells like that. The conditioner lathers up a bit, almost like a shampoo, and I was worried that it wouldn't be hydrating enough for my hair when I was rinsing it out. It rinsed out very easily, much faster than other conditioners that I've used.

Once I was done using the duo, I was amazed. Drying my hair once again took 12 minutes. My hair didn't feel sticky or grimy. My hair feels incredibly soft and silky, and that gross frizz action at the ends is gone. My hair is back!

I'll likely use the shampoo a few more times to ensure that all of the insane buildup I likely had is gone, and then I'll use it about once a week or so. The conditioner promises that your hair gets better with each washing, so I can't wait to see if that is true! If so, it might become my new "go to" conditioner.

Where to get them:
The Cleanse Clarifying Shampoo at Oribe, Neiman Marcus, BirchBox, or BlueMercury
Essential Antidote Replenishing Conditioner at Oribe, BlueMercury, BirchBox or Neiman Marcus

  1. So are they really really color safe? This summer for the first time ever, I went baby blonde instead of red. I've been a redhead since the 90s but I really wanted pink and purple highlights, so blonde it is. However, the purple doesn't stick around very well so I'm washing my hair a lot less. I'm terrified to use anything that is clarifying lest it wash out my expensive Aveda Purple.

  2. They claim to be color safe (and my expensive color was part of the reason why I bought them), and my color looks great today!

  3. You say that: "the secret behind the shampoo is that it really just polishes off dirt, oil, and product buildup"
    won't that, in effect, polish off hair color as well. That is what I'm worried about.

  4. That would be a concern if the hair color was sitting on the surface of your hair, but it isn't. It's gone deeper into the cuticle to change the color, you can't scrub it off. Over time it does "leach out" of the hair cuticle, hence fading, but it can't be scrubbed off.

Pristine Cleaning Solution

Non-Toxic    Non-Flammable    Non-Etching    Residue-Free    Reusable

Pristine Cleaning Solution is a unique non-toxic and environmentally-friendly cleaning solution engineered by 300 Below that removes carbon deposits and eliminates oil and lightweight grease upon contact.  PRISTINE cleaning solutions have a wide range of applications in multiple industries.  Whether improving the cleanliness of manufactured parts and equipment, or reducing the toxicity and environmental impact of an industrial operation, PRISTINE has the ability to clean quickly and effectively under most any circumstance.  Polishing compounds, rouges, rosin core flux lines, and other manufacturing particulate from metal surfaces, plastics and composites are no longer a maintenance headache with PRISTINE.  Our solution rinses completely free of its applied surface area, ultimately leaving no additional residue or etching.  That means zero problems and zero headaches for you.

Pristine Cleaning Solution’s unique suspension was perfected by the same chemist who invented Pine-Sol.

Pristine Testimonials for the AR-15

A quart of PRISTINE is cost effective, retailing for $19.97 for a 10:1 concentrate (~$2 per quart for the consumer) and even less for our industrial customers in bulk, and we have increased the dilution capabilities to ensure that every gallon of concentrated solution will generate ten gallons of effective cleaning capability when you add water to its optimal mix.  Because we provide a concentrated package, your shipping costs are reduced.  PRISTINE cleaning solutions are also reusable, and will continue to clean parts and equipment even after its initial application.  More than any other competing cleaning product, PRISTINE offers an economically superior value proposition.

For industrial applications, PRISTINE is available exclusively in 55 Gallon Drum commercial packaging with volume pricing discounts. This solution includes a new formula that is twice as strong as a 20:1 concentration, and is not available in the retail market. We call our industrial cleaner “PRISTINE EXTREME” and only offer it for use inside our B2B accounts. For commercial cleaning applications, our carbon removing cleaning solution exceeds tough EPA guidelines, reduces pollution, and provides significant volume purchasing discounts to companies seeking a greener more environmentally friendly cleaning solution.

PRISTINE is fully non-toxic, non-flammable, and non-caustic.

Keep in mind that PRISTINE is fully biodegradable, NON-TOXIC, Non-Caustic, and Non-Flammable.  It’s one of the only solutions out there that has optimal cleaning benefit and can be readily discarded without worrying about environmental impact or regulations.  The properties of PRISTINE will also be enhanced when used in a high-pressure spray, or an ultrasonic cleaning bath.

So, what is PRISTINE?

PRISTINE cleaning solutions are a proprietary formulation designed to a remove a wide variety of non-organic manufacturing debris and particulate.  PRISTINE has demonstrated aggressive cleaning capabilities while not permeating or etching the surface of materials.  Even inside applications involving gaskets or rubber seals, the materials were not negatively affected by PRISTINE.  Beyond all of the aggressive cleaning power, our formulation rinses completely free of any residue.

One of the best qualities of PRISTINE is its user friendly aspect, which aids the reduction of costly disposal challenges and also reduced power requirements within plants and manufacturing applications since PRISTINE does not require high temperatures for its optimal cleaning abilities to take effect.  Worker safety also improves due to the inherent aspects of utilizing a safer product.

Triple-Tech: Tactical Triad (Application, Renovation, Lubrication) Serving the firearms community… TRIPLE-TECH: Tactical Triad

Pristine is part of a unique tactical triad offered by 300 Below, Inc. as part of its commitment to serve the firearms community. Expert shooters rely on 300 Below to deliver innovation beyond its cryogenic process, and part of this solution includes a triple-technology solution that ensures a weapon is properly maintained throughout its service life. Firearms require solutions that factor in application of solvents, renovation (cleaning / restoration) of a substrate, and lubrication of parts subject to abrasion.

Our Pristine cleaning solution is best applied with our patented non-abrasive scrubbing mitt, called Pure Scrub, which removes a majority of carbon deposits with minimal user interaction.  Once a substrate is returned to a servicable condition, we then apply Slip Mist, our non-toxic lubricant derived from high-oleic soybeans.   The entire process occurs within a matter of minutes, and ensures that a weapon is not contributing a negative environmental impact following even thousands of rounds down range.

We believe that our tactical triad is a suitable replacement for common military applications where harsh chemicals are currently being used, and environmental impact becomes an after-thought to weapons conservation and protection of the end-user from chemical-related health complications.

Crazy-overtime-makes-me-bake-til-3-AM Chocolate Peanut Butter Cheesecake

I'm constantly amazed by the cheer and sense of community that home-baked desserts can bring to people. And call me crazy, but I'm willing to go quite out of my way to provide them on a regular basis. Baking for work has even helped this shy girl come out a bit from her shell. Plus, being an unashamed people-pleaser (I've accepted that I am what I am), I'm truly just as happy bringing in the sweets as my suite-mates are to gobble them up. And that is why I began whipping up a cheesecake past 10 pm last Thursday night, having just come home from work...perfectly reasonable, no?

Chocolate with peanut butter is one of my boyfriend's FAVORITE combinations. I'm relieved to know a few things guaranteed to make his taste buds happy. See, he's not at all a foodie and avoids some of the novel pairings I invent (Mt Tam cheese and red currant vanilla rhubarb jam sandwich, anyone?). So when Mike posted this Chocolate Peanut Butter Cheesecake with all those delectable photos, I knew I HAD to lick the screen...I mean...bake it soon =D.

Being the dork that he is, my bf told me this reminded him of Pacman

You'll see below that I made quite a few changes. My only issues were that it turned out slightly softer than I like my cheesecake and deep cracks formed in the center. Mike's cake looks to have neither issue, so I expect my substitutions and technique were at fault. It was totally NOM-licious though! I do still prefer my cakes to be purdy (I'm so shallow 8p) so the following are some tips I gathered on how to minimize cracking for my next cheesecake adventure.

Harold McGee's awesome book, On Food and Cooking, explains that cracks "result when the [cheesecake batter] expands and rises during the cooking, then shrinks and falls as it cools down." So to avoid that, you'll want to 1) mix the ingredients slowly, gently, and as little as necessary to get an even consistency, 2) bake at a low temperature over a longer time, 3) don't bake too long though, the edges should be set but the middle should still jiggle, and 4) cool gradually in an open oven. But you know what? If all else fails, chocolate ganache (or any other topping) will make any cracks "disappear."

Chocolate Peanut Butter Cheesecake
[Printable Recipe]
Adapted from Mike's Table

*My changes in red italics

1 Graham cracker crust
24 oz cream cheese *I used all neufchatel cheese
1 cup sugar
3 eggs
1 cup heavy cream
juice of 1/2 lemon
1 Tbsp vanilla extract
3 oz bittersweet chocolate
1 Tbsp cocoa powder *I forgot to add this
1/3 cup peanut butter
1 Tbsp honey
*Ganache and toasted, chopped peanuts for topping

*Preheat the oven to 350°F. Crush about 7 graham crackers. As you can see from the collage above, I used the ziploc bag and rolling pin method. You can also use a food processor. Mix the crumbs with 1/4 cup sugar. Then pour in 3-4 T melted butter and toss together with a fork. Press this mixture into a greased or parchment-lined 9" springform pan and baked it for about 10 minutes at 350°F.

Let the cream cheese come to room temperature for about an hour. Then, in the bowl of a stand mixer, beat the cream cheese and sugar until lighter in texture. Add the eggs one at a time, beating in between each addition. Finally, add the cream, lemon juice, and vanilla, beating them all in. Scrape the sides of the bowl and beat some more. The batter should be silky smooth and reasonably thick.

Now, divide the batter evenly into three bowls. Leave one plain. In the second, the flavor is peanut butter. Add the batter, peanut butter, and honey to the bowl of the stand mixer. Beat it well and set aside. In the third, the flavor will be chocolate. Melt the bittersweet chocolate chunks (30 seconds in microwave, stir, repeat until melted) and give it 30 seconds to cool down a bit. Beat the melted chocolate and cocoa powder into the batter (in the bowl of the stand mixer, of course).

With all three flavors ready, now all that remains is to assemble the cheesecake. The order you choose, doesn’t matter, but into the graham cracker crust, I poured the chocolate batter, smoothed it out, then the plain, and finally, the peanut butter batter. *I reversed the order (peanut butter, plain, then chocolate on top). Give the pan a tap in case there’s any air bubbles trapped in there (you don’t want them).

Now, set a pan (larger than your cheesecake pan) in the oven (which is at 350°F) and fill it with water. You want to bake the cheesecake in the water bath for 45-55 minutes (you want the center to have some jiggle to it, still). The water bath tempers the heat of the oven, helping to prevent your cheesecake from cracking. *I didn't have a large enough pan so I put a 9"x13" pan filled with hot water underneath the cheesecake pan instead. Lack of a proper water bath may be why mine cracked. I also left the oven on 10 minutes longer because the whole cake seemed too wobbly at 55 minutes. Once time is up, kill the heat, but leave the cheesecake in the oven for an hour more before you remove it and let it cool down on the countertop. Once cooled down, let it sit in the fridge overnight before you grab your self a slice.

Optionally, now is a good time to top your cake with some ganache, but trust me, you’ll love it with or without. Enjoy! *I poured 1/2 cup of boiling heavy cream into a bowl containing 1/2 cup of finely chopped chocolate to make the ganache. After cooling a bit, this was poured on top of the cheesecake. I finished the top with a handful of toasted chopped peanuts.

  1. Mmmm, that sounds wonderful! I'll bet you're Ms. Popular at work with treats like this... your lucky coworkers :)

    - Jacque at

  2. This looks so...delicious.I hope I can have a bite of it!

  3. it looks delish! normally, I don't enjoy cheesecake, but peanut butter and chocolate is the best combo in the world. must try soon.

I love hearing from you all! Please leave me a message if you have questions, advice, or just to let me know you stopped by. Your feedback is always very much appreciated. Thanks! <3 Xiaolu

Is IV Albuterol Effective for Acute Asthma Management?

Am Fam Physician. 2003 Feb 15;67(4):810-815.

First-line therapy for acute asthma attacks includes inhaled beta-agonist bronchodilators and corticosteroids. In severe asthma attacks, inhaled beta agonists may not penetrate the small airways, and response to the inhaled medication may be a result of the medication reaching the receptor sites through systemic circulation. It has been speculated that if the airways respond to inhaled beta agonists in this fashion, intravenous administration of the medication may provide an earlier response. Current clinical practice guidelines from Europe, Canada, and the United States suggest that beta agonists can be administered intravenously or subcutaneously as second-line therapy for acute asthma attacks in patients who do not respond to inhaled bronchodilators or systemic corticosteroids or if the inhaled route is not practical. The intravenous alternative is reserved for “near-death asthma” or “life-threatening asthma” by the various groups. However, these recommendations are based on limited studies, and the efficacy of intravenous administration in patients with acute asthma is currently under debate. Travers and colleagues reviewed evidence from randomized trials that support the use of intravenous beta agonists in patients with severe acute asthma.

The study was a meta-analysis of all randomized or quasi-randomized controlled trials of the use of intravenous beta agonists in the treatment of severe asthma attacks. The study population consisted of adult patients or children who presented to the emergency department with severe acute asthma attacks. All appropriate literature bases were searched for studies that met the inclusion criteria. Quality evaluation was performed, and data were extracted from the studies.

Of the 746 trials that met the inclusion criteria, 15 were included in the analysis. The trials used three different strategies: intravenous beta agonists with inhaled beta agonists versus inhaled beta agonists; intravenous beta agonists alone versus inhaled beta agonists; and intravenous beta agonists versus intravenous methylxanthines. The outcomes reviewed in the studies included pulmonary function, laboratory measures, adverse effects, clinical success, and vital signs. The meta-analysis did not show any statistical or clinical improvement in any of the variables. Seven methodologically strong trials did not show any change in heart rate or improvement of pulmonary function but did show an increased risk of adverse effects that did not reach clinical significance.

The authors conclude that the evidence for use of intravenous beta-agonist medications in severe asthma attacks is lacking. They add that the clinical benefit appears to be questionable, and the potential risk for adverse effects is evident. They state that intravenous beta-agonist medication should be used clinically only in patients who are not candidates for inhaled beta-agonist therapy.

AAFP Statement: Family Physicians Applaud PhRMA Agreement to Lower Prescription Costs for Elderly

Tuesday, June 23, 2009

Statement attributable to:
Ted Epperly, M.D.
American Academy of Family Physicians

“Nearly 45 years ago, the U.S. government recognized that our elderly – often the most vulnerable among us – could not get the health care they needed. Congress responded with the passage of legislation that created Medicare.

“We have come a long way since then. The 2006 implementation of Medicare Part D improved senior citizens’ access to the medications that treat chronic conditions and help maintain their health. Despite that progress, millions of elderly patients faced a gaping break in prescription coverage, known as the annual “doughnut hole,” in which they paid the full cost of their prescriptions that exceeded $2,700 but did not reach $6,154.

“Today we take another step forward with the agreement between the pharmaceutical industry and Sen. Max Baucus, D-Mont., chair of the Senate Finance Committee that is ushering health reform legislation through the U.S. Senate.

“According to this agreement, pharmaceutical companies will provide $80 billion to cover up to half the cost of brand-name medicine for patients who fall into the doughnut hole in Medicare’s Part D prescription drug program. At the same time, the entire price of those medications purchased through this program would count toward the beneficiary’s out-of-pocket costs.

“The American Academy of Family Physicians applauds this agreement. As a part of successful health reform legislation, this effort by pharmaceutical companies serves elderly patients, contributes to controlling health care costs and helps ensure continuity of care for our most vulnerable citizens.”
