Musicians’ Food Blogs – Mmmm, Tasty!
May, 13 2011
Steve Albini, best known as music producer and engineer for some of the most progressive names in rock ‘n’ roll (Nirvana, The Stooges, the Pixies, PJ Harvey, and a raft of others), has started a truly inspiring Italian-inspired cooking blog.
That’s not really all that uncommon these days as it seems everyone and their mother (including mine) has a blog. Blogs have allowed us to express ourselves in a super niche-y way. We can delve deep into complete strangers’ hobbies, opinions, and desires. Everyday Joe has become The Media as the internet continues to level the playing field in almost every industry.
While Albini is a whiz-kid behind the mixing boards, it turns out he’s not bad in the kitchen either. His technique descriptions make the complex seem simple, and the flavor play-by-play is as marvelous as it appears systematic. This description of Bulger Peanut Kimchee Spring Rolls may sound like a stoner’s delight until you note the careful consideration of flavor balance and textural nuances that went into them.
Certainly Albini isn’t the only one out there with a passion for music and food! Here is an awesome video blog belonging to the Vegan Black Metal Chef. Watch as he prepares Pad Thai. (Yes, this really exists.)
