This Baking Friday is open to participants throughout the U.S.


Our third holiday gift recommendation and this week’s Baking Friday prize is a subscription to the most intellectually stimulating food magazine, Gastronomica. Published by the University of California Press, Gastronomica includes a range of scholarly articles, fiction, poetry and luscious images.

The magazine is published four times a year with meaty substance that keeps you thinking throughout that season. I first learned of Gastronomica in a culinary history class, where the content of the magazine always generated discussions.

For our readers, Gastronomica is offering a special 15% discount on new subscriptions. Enter your answer to this week’s question below for your chance to win a one-year subscription, but if you’re not a winner, this discount offer is great for food lovers who crave gastronomic knowledge.

Gastronomica is a great magazine. For quality of writing, I love Saveur the most. Epicurious is my go-to site for recipe researches.
