I should have submitted this for top soups - but the red lentil coconut curry we made in August’s meal prep class was divine! I honestly couldn’t wait to eat leftovers of that each night.

I also made this cookie recipe recently for a cookie swap and while the swap wasn’t a competition, I’m pretty confident I won. It was also my first time browning butter and I was terrified. https://takestwoeggs.com/browned-butter-miso-chocolate-chip-cookies/

Honorable mentions to the fluffy pancake at Rule of Thirds and the wagyu omakase at Hyun, both of which I’ve treated myself to multiple times this year 💸

This year in cooking has been defined by getting a CSA delivery and having to get creative to use everything in time, and to transform some of the stuff I don't like as much into something I do. Some faves:

This soup: https://www.bbc.co.uk/food/recipes/peppercorn_coconut_broth_84709

A whole lot of tofu banh mi, after we got a load of carrots and radishes at once and I made two big jars of quick pickles

Caramel apples. I chose this CSA because it gives us a ton of varieties of apple all fall, and as much as I love apples I'm a LITTLE overwhelmed! An improvised stovetop caramel on apple slices and peanut butter pretzels was the answer one night when my sweet tooth was demanding something.
