In the last few weeks, I've tried Turkish flatbread (very similar to a tortilla, except it has yogurt, and you let it rise), brioche buns, buns with the flatbread dough, and using a dry brine on some round steak (which turned into amazing fajitas).

Now that I have a torch again, I'm probably going to make some Creme Brulee. Also want to try apple turnovers, since we ended up with a can of apple pie filling.

What are y'all making these days?

I've been adding red pepper flakes to my meth, if that's what you mean.

Flake huh? I've been using chili powder. Your way sounds much hotter.

Always trying new recipes all the time! Getting ready to make a pistachio strawberry topping for ice cream for tonight’s dessert with friends. Recently made tacos al pastor for the first time, making my own achioto paste. Been dying to try a duck recipe, that promised to post, but hasn’t yet.

I haven't had time to post it yet. Been very busy with something.

I'll ask Pauline to remind me to do it.

Yeah we demand recipes!

Haha I forget I’m among the minority with plenty of time, hence why I cook. A lot.

I want to learn to cook more, I get by but I'm not as skilled as I'd like to be.

We haven't really tried anything super new but I have been spending a good amount of time reading new recipes while I've been sick. When you can't really it all of a sudden things you might not otherwise think are appetizing start sound more appetizing like I just recently saw one that was how to make roasted potatoes using baking soda I think I'm going to try it.

That's a good technique! It really browns the outside well. Another good roasted potato recipe I've used is from Serious Eats (I think?) - essentially:
1. Infuse olive oil with garlic and some herbs. Strain and retain the herbs.
2. Par boil potatoes. Toss with the olive oil, making like a mashed potato paste that coats each piece.
3. Bake for a LONG time - like an hour, total.
4. Toss with the herbs and add parsley.

Might have to try that one too.
