  3. Consider the lemon stick

    Consider the lemon stick, a rite of spring in Baltimore.

  5. Spring's need-to-know cocktail ingredient: Shrubs

    As colonial kitchen tricks such as pickling and canning come back into vogue, it's no wonder preserved fruits and veggies have hit the cocktail world. Exhibit A is this year's drink of spring: the shrub. No, it's not an herb or a leafy plant; it's a vinegar-based ingredient that more bartenders are making in-house and pairing with diverse spirits from gin to shochu to bourbon. &quot;Shrubs were used back in the day when fruits and vegetables were much more seasonal than they are now," said Paul McGee, head bartender at <a href="http://chicago.metromix.com/venues/mmxchi-rpm-italian-venue" data-topic-id="PLENT00128">RPM Italian</a>, <a href="http://chicago.metromix.com/venues/mmxchi-bub-city-venue" target="_blank">Bub City</a> and forthcoming tiki bar Three Dots and a Dash. "You take the fruit or whatever flavor you want, add vinegar to it to pull out all the flavor and preserve it, like pickling. Then you add sugar to it afterward for sweetness." While vinegar in a drink might raise eyebrows, it doesn't taste as strange as it sounds. It adds tartness, but that's balanced by the sweetness of fruit and sugar and some savory flavors, too. Whatever your drink preference&mdash;fruity, fizzy, spicy or sweet&mdash;there's probably a shrub cocktail to suit you this season.

  7. The Twist: The swivel that shook the world

    It's been just over 50 years since a new dance craze called the Twist swept the nation. Though tame as near-beer by today's standards, the dance so upset the guardians of public morality that Dick Clark ordered the cameras turned away when teens on &quot;American Bandstand" started swiveling their hips. And when adults such as Truman Capote, Marilyn Monroe and the Kennedys took up the craze, the New York Times fumed that "instead of youth growing up, adults are sliding down."

    The remaining five contestants on &quot;Next Iron Chef" took a trip to Las Vegas Sunday evening for a Vegas wedding -- of wacky ingredients, of course. For the Chairman's Challenge of fusion, host Alton Brown married ingredients for the chefs: peanut butter and blue cheese; chicken liver and peppermints; bone marrow and hard fruit candies; clams and strawberries; and calamari and mini marshmallows.
