To find out how the recipes for 3 Thanksgiving staples have changed over the years, @washingtonpost reached out to John Becker, editor of @TheJoyofCooking & great-grandson of original author Irma S. Rombauer, who self-published the first edition in 1931. spr.ly/6010uaCGm

We almost exclusively share inspirational content vs recipes on socia media for this reason, and we leave comments open because we want to have conversations, not be treated like a recipe vending machine.

This is just a great tip in general. Even if you jot down the top five items that need to be used first it’s an easy way to waste less food.

We have a magnetic dry erase board on the front of our fridge. We use it for this purpose, but also for jotting down grocery list items before we forget, dishes we want to make soon, and ideas for new recipes.

Some questions you may want to ask @TheJoyofCooking for tomorrow’s show: Yo! Where is the squirrel? Or, Yo! Was that a backhanded compliment to your great grandma’s cake recipe? If you don’t ask I will. Tomorrow at 12 EST for patreon folk. Free Friday.

There is so much wrong with poultry production, but hormones are not used in raising poultry. In fact, they are not allowed. fsis.usda.gov/food-safety/sa…

Replying to @MeatMafiaBrett
This begs the question: How did we end up with these fattened, flavorless birds that are dirty and pumped with hormones? Enter the Chicken of Tomorrow Contest.

Tfw you spend 10 years researching and sleeping poorly because you really want to give home cooks correct information and then a neckbeard makes $$$ flouting all safety protocols on YouTube for a respected brand (insert eye bleeding emoji)
I for one cannot get enough of the Bon Appetit/botulism scandal

People of the internet! I have a new pantry recipe coming out next week, but it's already time to start thinking about future ones. So, what are the items in your pantry (shelf-stable and frozen ingredients) you want me to turn into something tasty?

Such a great addendum to the cooking times thread—prep and cook times assume people living without a disability as a baseline.

I do not have a disability, but my father has rheumatoid arthritis. There are days when he can’t make a fist with his hands because they’re locked up with inflammation. Imagine trying to grab a spatula or pair of tongs in that situation.

We famously don’t do this but as a recipe developer I’ve had to come up with prep and cook times for a lot of recipes over the years. Here’s how I try to do it in the least bad way possible.

Even after all that, it’s impossible to know how someone else is going to execute your recipe. Are they going to do the mise en place thing, or will they prep and cook simultaneously? Too many variables!

If it’s left up to me, I prefer not to include prep and cook time at all, but lots of people really want time estimates. They’re also part of recipe metadata, so in theory they provide some kind of SEO advantage (bleh).
