My husband got me this book for Christmas: http://www.eatthelove.com/2016/12/marbled-swirled-layered-everywhere/

It looks amazing but feel like I need a whole weekend free to make anything plus I can't decide where to start!

PS Stevie those potatoes are what Britishers traditionally eat every Sunday and can be found in most pubs' Sunday roasts- you can see why I was fairly distraught not to find them everywhere when I lived in the US!

that recipe looks dope tho, i've been meaning to try it for a few weeks. making good roast potatoes is an art.

in related news i found the best recipes of 2016 featurs by the serious eats authors had some good stuff - get them here: http://www.seriouseats.com/features

i mean part of the reason these are good is that serious eats is so bad at collating and organising its recipes, no worthwhile search, a horrible navigation page etc.

the book is good for that

that potatoe recipe is v similar to the Zuni Cafe cookbook recipe, which changed my potato life forever

protip: if the potatoes are done but you need to hold them, 275 degree oven is yr friend. theywill hold beautifully for ages that way, and get v nice & crispy

yukons forever <3

I should be cooling/eating latkes but instead I am sipping ginger ale. Thanks for the gastroenteritis, 2016!

haven't baked in forever and my mom didn't make any cookies this year so i felt i needed to. i made these https://smittenkitchen.com/2008/01/chocolate-chip-cookies/
if nothing else this is a note to myself that 18 minutes at 300 will only make melty puddles. try 22 minutes at 325. mixing cold butter is a pain in the ass. i'd soften it, make the dough, then refrigerate the dough for a bit. good cookies though.

Ahhh those simmered and then roasted potatoes feel so fidly but I'm sure turn out great as opposed to my simple chunked up russets in a hot oven that always end up cardboard on the outside. Damn it.

This milk-free potatoes au gratin has been my favorite lately, but it needs a hotter cooking temp than indicated--more like 450 than 375. Otherwise they'll never be done.

Rick Bayless is just so goddamn creepy.

I was gonna cook something tonight but instead we have decided to go out and tackle a 32 oz steak.

I'll be making pad thai this evening. I do not worry whether it is authentic, because there are probably hundreds of minor variations. And at least I have nam plah and ba oelek, so I can kid myself it's just like my mom would make, if she were thai.
