Hey HOs! The end of the quarter snuck up on me so I’m a bit late with this post, but it’s time for COTQ nominations again! Temps are cooling off and I’m ready for hand-knit sweaters and hearty fall dishes on the table. Please make your nomination in ALL CAPS below. I’ll leave nominations open until Sunday, Oct 3. Thanks and happy fall!
Good start! I love cheese and harvest is perfect for fall. I was gonna’ go for Indian but will go with HARVEST BOUNTY! The INTERNATIONAL part will make it fun!
This is interesting because I was going to ask if y’all ever did a particular food like cheese or preparations like cold non-dessert foods (good for summer cotq).
Interesting, actually these suggestions remind me of the discontinued bi-monthly Dish of the Month that is ingredient or method based. How about reviving it and give it another chance?
I agree, those are great ideas but definitely more in line with the dish of the month. Happy to consider them depending upon how the remainder of the process plays out.

I’ve mentioned before that Indian seems too broad, this might be a tasty toe-dip - wait that sounds weird
Lots of vegetables and fish on the Indian (predominantly Hindu) side, more meat and slightly different preparations on the (predominantly Muslim) Bangladeshi side. Lots of overlap. All delicious.
Looking forward to cook some Indian food. I discover (only recently) there is a discreet Indian ‘shop’ not far from my home. It has everything from plants, furniture, food, spices, jewelry, cookware, clothes (including marriage), aquarium fish…
