DLM's Annual Peach Party
The Prima Sweet Peaches from California's San Joaquin Valley are hand-selected and picked when they are ready, and not before. Since the peaches remain on the trees until ripe, the sugar content is higher which results in a better flavor. Sink your teeth into an Honestly BetterŪ Prima Sweet Peach this July! $1.99 lb • save $1.00 lb with Club DLM card through Tuesday July 27.

Three Dog Bakery uses all-natural 100% human-quality ingredients such as chicken, grains, vegetables, and herbs that dogs love. It's free of preservatives, fillers, salt, sugar, animal by-products or fat, artificial flavors, and colors. New to their line up are Sweethearts (cookies baked with molasses), wheat-free Woofers (cookies baked with sweet potatoes), Mint Rounds (cookies baked with real spearmint to freshen breath), V'Nilla StarBites, and P'Nutty Paws (cookies baked with peanuts). Yum! Now your dogs can have real cookies too!

School of Cooking
Sous vide
Sous vide (pronounced soo-veed) is a culinary technique in which vacuum sealed food is immersed in a water bath and cooked at a very consistent temperature. The cooking time is longer than other methods for the same food, but the cooking temperature is much lower. This low-and-slow method yields remarkable and unique results.
Sous vide cooking has sparked a new wave of innovation and creativity among distinguished chefs at major restaurants around the world. Cooking for dozens or hundreds of guests a night in a restaurant requires large (and expensive) sous vide equipment, and until now nothing else was available. The SousVide Supreme makes the technology and techniques of sous vide available to the home chef.
What's exciting about sous vide is that it is not simply another way of doing the same thing. It is a new and unique way of cooking that yields different and better results. Foods cooked sous vide take on tastes and textures that simply cannot be duplicated using any other method-not braising, not roasting, not poaching. Stop by the School of Cooking to see The SousVide Supreme machine and the accessories that will bring this innovative cooking method to your home.
