You do have to make your own polenta out of coarse cornmeal, though.

I once tried to make my own polenta out of coarse cornmeal, and I'd only do it in the future if there was an emergency, but this counts.

Note that this was for an Ottolenghi recipe.

I am confused by this because I use whatever cornmeal I have on hand and call it polenta! but over here we call everything "rustic italian" and call it a day lol. At least we have enough spices to get through all of his recipes now.

Fun fact, NYT Opinion is functionally a different company from the rest of the paper. Totally different leadership structure; the newsroom has no control over it in any way.

The framing of their news coverage (aside from those great investigative deep dives with the good data visualizations) and their editorial positions and of most of their columnists, regardless of the internal structure, seems to be fairly consistent.

Ehhhhhh it varies a lot depending on desk but yes national/politics/opinion are aligned

I’m almost never mad at cooking and puzzles, that’s for sure!

Then it sure is weird how the newsroom is singing the same tune. It’s almost like they report to the same boss and the notion that they’re separate is a comforting lie!
Avatar
I mean the various desks within the newsroom are also wildly separate from one another and not necessarily ideologically or even stylistically aligned. There’s no consistent agreement on whether story subjects get honorifics or not. The paper is all over the place.

I’d seriously consider re-subscribing if it meant Melissa Clark walking into Op-Ed meetings and repeatedly bashing Ross Douthat upside the head with a heavy-gauge sheetpan.
