"Did I say two tsoureki? I meant three!"

Two tsoureki (braided Greek Easter bread), fresh out of the oven and resting on racks. Each has a boiled egg, shell dyed red, nestled in the braids.
This Greek Easter, the instructions were clear: "Two tsoureki!" I complied, using the usual recipe. #breadsky

Field trials of my contraption to allow me to load my Italian sub with shredded iceberg lettuce and vinaigrette without it going all over the place. Patent pending. Somewhere in there is one of my sesame seed rolls. #foodsky #breadsky
I can confirm that the Hasselbeck-potato-gratin hype is real: it's the best potato dish I've ever made. I was too busy eating to take pics. #foodsky www.seriouseats.com/hasselback-p...
Yes, I weighed the dough, down to the gram!
This apple pie awaits us. I followed Claire Saffitz's serious recipe in @bonappetit.bsky.social. But at my wife's request, I made the top crust out of leaves. www.bonappetit.com/recipe/best-... #foodsky
As usual, I spent all day cooking. But not as usual, everything worked out! Including my first attempt at these sourdough dinner rolls,using the recipe from The Perfect Loaf. #breadsky
This is the first time I've experienced this phenomenon!
Nuts.com has caught shrinkflation. In a shipment I received yesterday, organic Medjool dates and organic dried cranberries were in 13-oz bags instead of one-pound bags. The cranberries cost $0.79 per oz instead of the $0.72 per oz I paid in August. I'm not complaining, just observing! #foodsky
Chocolate-pumpkin marble cake looking good so far. @bonappetit.bsky.social recipe: www.bonappetit.com/recipe/choco... #foodsky
Behold the Italian sub.
Sesame seed rolls, using Charlie Anderson's recipe, as usual. www.charlieandersoncooking.com/recipes/arti.... Italian sub to follow once they've cooled. #breadsky
Apple cake with caramel glaze, how it started (before the glaze) and where things stand now. Here's the recipe:www.bonappetit.com/recipe/caramel-apple-sna...
For the first time, I saw a chunk of guanciale (cured pork jowl) in a store. Heck, even finding it diced in a plastic package is rare enough. So of course I bought it. I see spaghetti carbonara in our future. Mad props to Iavarone Bros. for stocking it, as well as capicola (aka gabagool). #foodsky
Some days what's required is lots of pasta, cheeses, and bechamel sauce topped with breadcrumbs, accompanied by a token vegetable. Today was one of those days. #foodsky
My first-ever chicken francese, using Not Another Cooking Show's recipe. www.notanothercookingshow.tv/post/chicken.... Shoulda added more sauce! #foodsky
Chicken liver with onions: my first time ever eating, and first time ever making, a liver dish. I used the first Youtube video I encountered (although it features beef liver): youtu.be/_SgpjsPZ32Q?.... I ate it without a problem! #foodsky
I just used the phrase "Gallic shrug" in one in a series of new writings that are meant to be more accessible. Oops.
At some point accessible crosses over into dreary. If everyone can effortlessly digest what you've written, it's gruel.
Is "chalk up to" (as in, "He chalked up his mistakes to his inexperience") too fuddy-duddy for an online world? (Mind you, "fuddy-duddy" might be too fuddy-duddy for an online world.)
This would be an extremely bad idea. It will not satisfy them. It will acknowledge that they are right about something. It will empower them. Literally nothing that anyone should do, should be oriented towards placating this administration.
My sourdough, my hummus (Zahav recipe), grilled vegetables, sweet onion. All that's missing is arugula. #breadsky
kadams@adamsdrafting.com. I look forward to hearing what you have to say!
I didn't know that the rabbi was the mayor! And I like that he uses the royal "we" to refer to himself. 🙂 (Dangling participle)
Here's an update! (tl;dr: No, I haven't revised my stance, other than to add additional evidence.)

As a token post for no good reason, here's tonight's Italian sub, featuring one of my sesame seeds rolls, using Charlie Anderson's recipe. #breadsky
