Thanks in advance.

First rule here is to present a recipe yet most posts don't.

Our power is out today and I often make a sunday roast in the oven.

What should I make today on the gas stove top?

I am wanting to use my smaller cast iron dutch oven. Recipes I know well are actual stroganoff, stews, soups etc.

Wanting to try something different but meaty. Total capacity is about 2 quarts.

I love lemon cake but I’ve never made lemon yoghurt cake before so I’ve been wanting to try my hand at them.

So please drop your BEST lemon yoghurt cake recipe, I like a nice lemon flavour without an overly sweetness to accompany it. I’ve been contemplating between Ina Garten (Barefoot Contessa), Joy of Baking and RecipeTin eats. Any recommendations?

Growing up my dad made cobbler all the time and seeing as I was his shadow I learned the recipe and have made it all my life. I grew up in OK but moved to AK 2 years ago and so many people have never even had it! So I got to thinking maybe others haven’t as well and I’d share my dad’s recipe.

1 cup self rising flour
1 cup white sugar
1 cup whole milk
1/2 teaspoon of salt
4 tablespoons of melted butter
Frozen fruit of your choice (I love peach the most and if you do too then definitely add a touch of cinnamon)
Additional 1/4 cup of white sugar.
Mix all ingredients minus the fruit and 1/4 of sugar. Pour into a well buttered 9x9 dish, place fruit evenly on top (batter will rise up between it while cooking) sprinkle the 1/4 cup of sugar on top of the fruit. Bake for 50 minutes at 350° or until the top is brown. I vary here a little from dad as I will sprinkle a tablespoon of cinnamon sugar on top in the last 5 minutes and turn the oven to broil.

I bought a bag of ground chia and flax seed blend (as an alternative to regular chia seeds) because I eat overnight oats/oatmeal nearly every day and chia seeds weren't available, but there's no way I'll be able to finish this bag efficiently if used just for those two things...

If anyone has suggestions, I'm all ears!

I found a recipe for this on ATK and in the comments section, some people were saying that an old recipe had been taken down and the new one was a poor substitute.

Someone has a physical copy of the cookbook that the old recipe is in and posted a photo of the page in the comments section. This is the old recipe from the old cookbook.

I can confirm it is fantastic, and seemed to be much easier and less time consuming (e.g. peanut butter instead of actual peanuts).

Grilled Chicken Satay (from Cooks Illustrated)

Peanut Sauce:

1/3 cup peanut butter

1/3 cup coconut milk

3 tbsp lime juice

2 scallions, sliced thin

2 tbsp packed brown sugar

2 tbsp chopped fresh cilantro

1 tbsp sriracha

1 tbsp fish sauce

1 garlic clove, minced

1/2 tsp curry powder

Process all ingredients in a food processor until smooth, about 1 minute. Set aside. This can be refrigerated for up to 3 days. Let it sit at room temperature for 30 min before serving.

Satay:

1/3 cup coconut milk

4 scallions, sliced thin

1/4 cup packed brown sugar

1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro

3 tbsp fish sauce

2 tbsp sriracha

2 garlic cloves, minced

1/2 tsp curry powder

4 chicken breasts

6-8 wooden skewers, soaked in water for 30 min so they don't burn

In a food processor, add coconut milk, scallions, sugar, cilantro, fish sauce, sriracha, garlic, and curry powder. Process to a coarse puree, about 30 sec. Move to a bowl, or ziploc bag, or whatever you will be marinading the chicken in.

Slice the chicken breasts into 1/4 inch strips and add to the satay marinade, cover and refrigerate for at least an hour, up to 12 hours.

Thread the chicken strips tightly onto skewers. Leave no more than 3/4 inch of skewer on each end.

Clean and oil grate, BBQ skewers on high heat until chicken is charred around edges and just cooked through, 3-5 min per side. Transfer to a platter and serve with the peanut sauce.

I've been thinking about this while cooking today. Some recipes are just so much better homemade that it's hard to go back to the store-bought version.

For me, it's fresh salsa. It takes 10 minutes, costs very little, and tastes completely different from anything in a jar.

What's your pick? It could be bread, pasta, stock, pizza dough, butter chicken, cookies—anything. I'm looking to expand my list of recipes to try this year, and I'd love to hear what you think is genuinely worth making from scratch.

Please give me your homemade best eggnog recipe that you have tried and turned out great. Thank you

Anyone have a good recipe for a vinegar based sauce for pulled pork? I usually make it using the standard ACV, brown sugar, ketchup, pepper flakes, seasonings…

Looking to kick it up a notch.

I am looking for a pork chop suey recipe that was published by LaChoy probably in the late ‘50’s - ‘60’s. My mama always made it for my birthday dinner and even tho I inherited her recipe box, I can’t for the life of me find it. I would love to be able to make it for my family. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

My french grandma died and took all her recipes with her some years ago which is a culinary disaster for the planet, but it is what it is i guess. My best friend is turning 30 and i wanted to bake her our family recipe chocolate cake, which is impossible, so i'm looking for the next best thing.

I've googled my way to that it must be some form of Gateau au chocolat, but none of the pictures i find online seem to match what it's supposed to look like, so i'm trying my luck here.

It is an incredibly flavourful cake that is fluffy airy around the edges, but fudgy in the center and is crispy on the top. like crunchy crispy. the top and the center are the best parts by far

The steps are as following:

Melt chocolate and butter in a water bath

melt sugar in mix and let cool a bit, then add egg yolks, flour and potato flour

(UNSURE if regular flour is used as well, i think it has to be, but there is definitely potato flour)

Whip whites to stif peaks, then carefully fold into chocolate mix

butter and potato flour in a spring form (ig this is relative, but it's how we did it)

bake bottom oven until testing pin comes out moist but not completely dry.

Any ideas?

For the salad:

2 large heads broccoli, cut into bite-sized florets

½–¾ cup dried cranberries

½ cup pecans, roughly chopped

2 honeycrisp apples

⅓ cup crumbled goat cheese

¼ of a small red onion or 1 shallot, diced small

Juice of ½ lemon

¼ cup pumpkin seeds.

For the dressing:

¼ cup mayonnaise

¼ cup full-fat Greek yogurt

1½ tbsp maple syrup

1 tbsp Dijon mustard

1 tbsp apple cider vinegar

1 tbsp olive oil

Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Pinch of cinnamon

1. Dice the apples and toss with the lemon juice.

2. Make the dressing, combining all ingredients and whisking until smooth.

3. Combine broccoli, cranberries, apple, red onion, and dressing. Mix well. Set in the fridge for 30 - 60 minutes before serving.

4. While the broccoli sits, prepare the pecans. Spread diced pecans on a foil lined baking sheet. Toast for 5–8 minutes at 350°.

5. Just before serving, drain any excess water from broccoli mixture, add goat cheese, pumpkin seeds, and pecans to salad and mix well.

6. Devour.

Folks who have more experience than I do with whipping up salads (probably everyone here tbh), I'm hoping you can tell me if my proportions seem right here? Designed this from scratch, never made anything like it before. Esp side-eyeing the dressing. I did some research into other dressings, but in my family dressing was always something that came out of a bottle from the grocery store 😅 Any feedback and suggestions before I go out and buy ingredients would be amazing 🩷

Hi y'all!

I recently had a brunch event at my house potluck style and people brought lots of food, but some wires got crossed and multiple tubs of cream cheese were brought to my house. Mostly unflavored, but I got one or two chive cream cheeses and one strawberry cream cheese. Does anybody have any idea what to do with these other than cheesecake? I don't believe in wasting food but I'm wracking my brain on what to do with them. If anyone has any recipes that include cream cheese that aren't cheesecake, it would be appreciated! Thanks so much!
