I remember so clearly how Chuck and I would fight over who should read the latest edition of Gourmet Magazine first. And who should have the chance to make one of the recipes in this bible of good food.
And how regretful I felt when, many years after his death, I moved the stash of Gourmet Magazines out of the cupboard and down to the garage.
And now it is going to stop. No more monthly joys, no more a secure source for good food and quaint stories and complicated, but tasteful, recipes.
I am glad that Chuck did not have to see this.
Whenever I search for a recipe and find it originating at Gourmet, I shall think of him and his absolute love of all things of taste.
So rest in peace, Gourmet Magazine. We shall never forget you.

If you ever wnat a recepie, you call the Torhus. Here we've got everything you can think about. My wife (Annegrete) is a wonderfull one, who makes the most wonderfull disches every day. Same dish twice a month, different taste every time. Come on make your request, and she can supply you the recepie!
Annegrete have made her own orange marmalade. It took 3 ours to cook -the first day. Then another 5 ours the following day. And the result is explicit. She makes everything, but in her own way - no specific recepie, but you just ask, and you'll get inspiration for the next three month.
