1. Gochujang caramel, from Eric Kim / @nytcooking.bsky.social.

This cookie definitely lives up to its hype. Initially my gochujang sauce had butter bits, but I put the bowl over hot water (faux double boiler) to make the sauce smooth.

don’t worry, i hate them for that too

his recipe for success: one part out of network fees, two parts denied coverage, with a side of human suffering.

Not sure who I think I am these days, but I made cranberry lemon bars from scratch (my first @nytcooking.bsky.social recipe). And I pretty much didn’t cry!

Salted caramel and apple butter ice-cream with calvados

Experimenting with my apple butter. Tweaked one of my favourite @nigella.bsky.social recipes (for salted caramel and bourbon ice-cream) to make salted caramel and apple butter ice-cream with a good glug of calvados, for extra appleyness 🍎🍏 #homemade #icecream #uachtarreoite

Ingredients for homemade apple butter, in a cast-iron pot

This weekend's cooking project - #homemade apple butter, with lots of cinnamon and ginger. From @nytcooking.bsky.social's recipe...

Apple cake with caramel icing in a cast iron skillet.

If me licking the spatula from the caramel icing is any indication, this is going to be fucking bomb. 🍏 🍰

Thank you @nytcooking.bsky.social.

Grateful for Melissa Clark @nytcooking.bsky.social for the recipe that led to this gorgeous platter (not to mention @stephencolbert.bsky.social for his Beef Wellington recipe, which was a fab turkey replacement). Oh yeah, and my family and friends.

Turkey in progress. @nytcooking.bsky.social please make me look good for this brined bird. My boss is gonna be there…

5. Come Down: Sit on the kitchen floor and forget you’re cooking. Call your mom, but hang up when she answers.

6. Rest & Serve: Let the chicken rest for 15 minutes, like a normal person. Carve and serve. Immediately bring up politics and ruin dinner.

3. Do Cocaine: FUCK THIS CHICKEN! WOOOOO!!!

4. Roast: Reset the oven to 500°. Don’t set a timer.

1. Prep the Chicken: Preheat oven to 425°F. Pat your little chicken dry.

2. Season: Smear it with olive oil, salt, pepper, and random herbs you found in the back of the pantry. Is that oregano? Who cares. Stuff it with a lemon.
