Officially a drought. Gov. Gavin Newsom on Wednesday declared a drought emergency in
two Northern California counties. But some researchers said they believe all of California is actually two decades into
Universal basic income. A new citywide, anti-poverty proposal by Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti would give
cash strings-free to thousands of city residents. It would be one of the most high-profile experiments as cities across the country test similar programs.

Good morning. Alexa Weibel brought us a terrific recipe she adapted from the chef Tony Tan’s “Hong Kong: Food City,” for spicy won tons with chile oil. They’re Cantonese in origin, so less mouth-numbingly fiery than their Sichuan cousins, and remind me of a dish served at Chef Yu, a Cantonese restaurant in the Garment District of Manhattan that labels the dumplings, confusingly, as “Szechuan won ton with red hot pepper oil.”
How do you air fry a whole chicken? Just plop it in there Dennis Lee
Here at
The Takeout, we appreciate our air fryers very much. While we have used these appliances to make vegetable-heavydishes, desserts, and even gnocchi, we haven’t focused nearly as much on how well it can cook meat. My fiancée got me an air fryer for my birthday (as some of you may recall, my previous air fryer died because of a giant sweet potato), and I made sure to ask for a bigger model this time.

This recipe, given to me by my friend Helen Rosner, is a much simpler version of Italian fritti that doesn’t require making a batter or deep-frying. Make sure to buy artichokes marinated in oil only; if there is water or brine, it will affect their roasting and make them less crisp. If you have to use water- or brine-packed artichoke quarters, drain them in a sieve, then press gently with paper towels. Scatter them on additional paper towels and let air dry for at least 30 minutes. Toss the artichokes with 2 tablespoons olive oil in a bowl, then transfer to the prepared baking sheet to roast.
