• I’ve added a casual chat room to CookingBites as a place for off-topic banter, light conversation, and short-lived chit-chat that doesn’t belong in forum threads. The chat room is informal and lightly-to-not moderated, with messages being temporary, so it’s ideal for friendly back-and-forth that would otherwise derail discussions. Site rules still apply, but there’s no reporting system or expectation of post-by-post moderation - if something becomes uncomfortable, the right response is to step away. If a topic has substance or lasting value, it still belongs in the forums; everything else can head to chat.

The CookingBites recipe challenge: leeks

Since we haven't had chocolate in a while or an ingredient this year that really leans toward sweets, let's go with chocolate/cacao. That way we can cover sweet and savory fully, since the darker chocolates especially, and definitely cacao, work well with savory dishes. Let's use bars or chips or disks or nibs or even cacao butter and skip the powders. Even though it technically isn't chocolate, white chocolate in the above forms is okay too.

I don't have a sweet tooth, but pure chocolate works in savoury dishes...
I should be in town next week and have put it on my shopping list
