Hurt my shoulder playing softball and the physio suggested a bunch of exercises, increasing the weight by 1 pound a day. We’re on day/pound 3 now. No idea what I’ll use tomorrow but that’s a whole different day’s problem!

    Ooooh boy, I guess I gotta learn how to bake first. But a bunch of weird looking hummus posts just wouldn’t quite be the same…

      I recommend “potaje de garbanzo” (Cuban chickpea stew) for the chickpeas. Not sure what kind the other beans are.

      As for learning to bake, the main thing to know is that the use-case for pie weights is blind-baking (pre-baking before filling is added) a flaky pie crust (“shortcrust”). Keep the ingredients cold and don’t overwork it, and you’ll be fine. Also remember that savory things like chicken pot pies are options too, not just sweet.

        I had never heard of potaje de garbanzo but goddamn, that looks super tasty and up my alley! I will absolutely make some, thank you!
