This taco-perfect brisket is one of my favorite feed-a-crowd meals. It's spectacularly easy to make in the oven, Instant Pot, or a slow-cooker and the aroma is nothing short of transcendent.

How to feed sourdough starter Starting your sourdough journey? Here's how to feed sourdough starter to keep it alive for baking bread.

Planning to try sourdough starter later today. I've never been successful with it on my own, so I decided to pick up a 1-oz container of starter from King Arthur Baking. They offer a free online guide & PDF with instructions (warms the cockles of my technical writer heart!)

Started teaching myself to cook in the '90s before the ubiquity of recipes on the Internet (which I'm not knocking, btw, I've bookmarked many favorite food blogs over the years). I still love collecting cookbooks though and picked up this classic over the weekend.

The OG @lecruset.bsky.social that I bought 38 years ago at a time when I made very little money and this pot was a big investment. Countless stews, braised and loaf of bread have come out of this beautiful pan. Amongst my collection, this is one is the most cherished. #lecruset ๐Ÿœ๐Ÿฝ๏ธ

Years later, I still marvel at the magic, but have gained the confidence to play. Tonightโ€™s loaf, enriched with sharp cheddar and thyme, was heavenly with a generous slather of good and salty cultured butter.
