SOUP - Fall 2021 (Oct-Dec) Dish of the Quarter

Hey HOs! During the nomination process for COTQ this quarter, it became clear that there was interest in reviving the old dish of the month concept. Voting monthly can be cumbersome, though, so we’ve decided to introduce Dish of the Quarter! This quarter’s clear winner was SOUP. Looking forward to a lively discussion of all the soups you are making and/or eating out this quarter!

GRATIN - Fall 2023 (Oct-Dec) Dish of the Quarter

We had a varied DOTQ field this time, but GRATIN came out on top. Perfect dish for fall, IMO - is there anything that isn’t improved by a crispy or cheesy (or both) topping? Let’s get baking, HOs!

HOMEMADE PIZZA - Winter 2024 (Jan-Mar) Dish of the Quarter

It was a tight race, but HOMEMADE PIZZA took home top honors in our voting thread for this quarter’s DOTQ! I love pizza of all styles and make it frequently, so I am excited to read about your best tips and tricks for the perfect pie. Let’s get those ovens cranking, HOs!

SAVORY EGG DISHES - Spring 2024 (Apr-Jun) Dish of the Quarter

All you chawanmushi fans finally got your wish - SAVORY EGG DISHES came out on top this quarter. Interestingly enough, we did deviled eggs this quarter last year - clearly spring brings eggs to the top of everyone’s mind! Looking forward seeing your eggy creations.

SAVORY TARTS AND GALETTES - Summer 2024 (Jul-Sept) Dish of the Quarter

We had a tight race this quarter, but SAVORY TARTS AND GALETTES managed to edge out chilled soups by one vote to become our big winner! Thanks for voting - I look forward to pull out my springforms and baking along with you all.

Happy autumn, HOs! We had a tight DOTQ race this quarter, with CHOWDERS edging out the competition via my tie-breaking vote. Looking forward to chow(der)ing down along with all of you!

BAKED PASTAS - Winter 2025 (Jan-Mar) Dish of the Quarter

This quarter’s votes didn’t take much tabulating - it was BAKED PASTAS by a mile for Dish of the Quarter. Can’t wait to see your cheesiest, creamiest, most rib-sticking winter favorites. I’ll start with a brief review of my dinner last night - Baked Buffalo Mac and Cheese with bacon from Domino’s Pizza. It was about as good as you’d expect such a thing to be (i.e. not that good), but acceptable for a quick and cheap takeout meal. They use ziti (not my favorite noodle) in a not-very-cheesy sauce…

CANAPÉS - Spring 2025 (Apr-Jun) Dish of the Quarter

We had a close race this quarter with CANAPÉS pulling ahead by one vote to become our Spring 2025 DOTQ. Looking forward to seeing your creative Spring ideas for these delectable little bites, HOs!
