Turns out A Serious Man is set in the same world as Burn After Reading.

Michael Stuhlbarg, forehead-desking on his hands in A Serious Man. He’s hearing of his wife’s divorce attorney: “Well, she has retained Barney Silver at Tuchman Marsh.”

Kevin Sussman in Burn After Reading as a lawyer representing Elizabeth Marvel’s character, serving notice to her husband George Clooney. He’s saying the name of his firm: Tuchman Marsh. Tuchman Marsh.

www.seriouseats.com/best-flour-f...

For the very best loaves, many bakers reach for high-extraction flour, which brings sweetness, nuttiness, and minerality to breads and pastries.
