I’m not sure. On CH there was often a problem for some users when the thread would get extremely long or when there were a great many photos. I don’t recall hearing if this has been a problem on HO…Perhaps technology has improved and it isn’t as big of an issue these days. But it could be a consideration.

Agreed 100%. I use the restaurant meals on this thread frequently for inspiration.

Saturday steak dinner here. Threw a flank steak on the grill and pulled some pesto from the freezer to get started, then pan-roasted some cherry tomatoes and made sauteed mushrooms smothered in a creamy sherry sauce. 20 mins start to finish, including resting time for the steak. Fantastic.

I guess it depends what you’re looking for in a forum. Personally I go elsewhere to share my restaurant reviews and photos (namely, Yelp) and am most interested in this cooking forum for homecooking examples and inspiration 🤷. Others’ mileage may (and apparently does) vary though.

A friend grows the most amazing tomatoes & is generous with them! This week she gave me 2 big batches, I share with a couple of friends. The first photo is a giant Brandywine OTV… Last night I had to use up veggies before we leave for Kelowna BC so zoodles with an uncooked Summer tomato sauce & a few meat balls was dinner…

In case anyone is interested, we treated our friends from Staten Island to a very belated birthday dinner at Technique in Westwood, NJ. Below is a link to the details and pictures.

It’s not quite fall weather, but I found a nice bag of brussel sprouts at WF. Shredded sprouts with bacon, onion, pine nuts, lemon juice, and a few ricotta gnocchi from the freezer. Garlic bread and wine for sides.

Chicken Katsudon
Fried Cutlet, simmered for 1 minute in a broth of Dashi, Soy Sauce, Sake, Mirin, Sugar, then covered w/Egg & Scallion mixture and simmer covered for 1-2 minutes. Cutlets absorb the dashi and the egg mixture sets custard-like. Slide from the pan onto a bowl of Rice, garnish w/more Scallions (ran out 
). Husband likes extra dashi on his rice, others might too. It’s good hot, but more delicious at room temp when everything has melded together. Also, a side of Snap Peas (not pictured).

Brown gloops from the freezer. One actually beige gloop in the form of mac & cheese. The other a sausage & bean casserole.

I am stealing this idea. Sounds great.

So you’re going to keep us in suspense huh?
…well how did it taste!? 
Well, garlic oil, fontina, parm, asiago, San Marzanos…pretty darn good! I have to figure out placement of the pizza steel, though. It could have used a little more browning so I’ll move the steel down one level next time.

Nice job on your first pizza! Beautiful stove too I have not seen that brand before. Love your ingredients line up to.
