Blogs with Biteis an occasional omnivorous sampling of food blogs and sites we find particularly tasty. Follow the trail of bread crumbs back to earlier editions, starting here.
Today’s serving of Blogs with Bite:
Over a Tuscan Stove — Judy Witts of Divina Cucina blogs from Florence (Italy, not Alabama). Hat tip: Laura Gordon Giannozzi.
Edible Plants — 154 plants rated best for edibility by Plants For A Future (PFAF). Bonus: alternative food crops and nibbles (the PFAF Database Search Page is a bit overwhelming, though).
The Atlantic Food Page — Feast on all the Atlantic‘s food features or follow your favorites.
Evan Rails’ Beer Culture — Strong-brewed writing from the Prague Monitor that will blow the suds off your mug.
Coquinaria— English version of a Dutch Culinary History site. Recipes from Rome to the 19th century; online editions of medieval Dutch cookbooks. Not to be confused with the equally excellent Italian site of the same name.
Food Fights — Films, TV, documentaries, pies-in-the-face. Compiled by Mark Morton of Gastronomica.
The Gastronomer — Norwegian food writer Andreas Viestad is scientific but not stuffy. Mr. Viestad writes for the Washington Post but this site is more convenient (sorry, WaPo).
How to Revive a Dying Carrot — [Insert Viagra joke here.] Video by Meredith Arthur of Chow.
Ideas in Food —“”Improvisation and Experimentation in the Kitchen.” Aki Kamozawa and H. Alexander Talbot.
FindJunkFood.com — “The US burger and pizza finder.” Listings by state.

StarChefsTM– “”The magazine for culinary insiders …. serving the foodservice industry and food aficionados since 1995.” Celebrity chefs. News, chatter, recipes,techniques, jobs, training opportunities, ads. Sorry, no centerfold.
WeddingCakes.com — Photos. Astounding photos. Cakes by Ron Ben-Israel.
Food Junta — “Empowering the young, broke, and hungry.” Kevin Roe and Claire Stanford lead this band of irregulars and insurgents.
NutraIngredients.com — “Dietary supplements, Nutraceuticals, Functional foods, Health ingredients, Herbals.” News source for the snake-oil industry; pseudo-science nutrition and unlicensed medical practice. Immensely entertaining.
Tasty Insect Recipes — Iowa State University’s Entomology Club cookery.
