Wow! Terrific article. Makes perfect sense and incredibly helpful.
Now, since PJ Hamel attended Brown U., do you, PJ, have a recipe for that amazing cranberry coffee cake that was so common in the Pembroke cafeteria when I was there? I have never been able to replicate it and have never found a recipe that comes close. A holy grail from those long-ago days. A totally perfect blend of tart/sweet/loose crumb. Never mind all the friends, courses and professors, this is what I remember most fondly.
