hi there! my name's hunk. (yes, really.)

sorry if this kind of thing has been brought up before. if it has, i missed it! please feel free to point me in the right direction!

anyway... probably mostly due to cordis problems, people needing food or wanting to learn how to cook has come up a couple of times. and i've also bumped into a lot of people who share a passion for cooking and cuisine! so i'm hoping to organize an easy recipe archive for those who need it AND maybe a team of people available to provide lessons and/or to team up on meal-based community events. that kinda thing!

so let me know if you like to cook and would be down for this? or if you DON'T like to cook and would like some guidance? or just drop your favorite recipes below!

if you're neither of those... which is superior: pancake dinner or spaghetti dinner?

nice to meet you! at least kinda-sorta.

people keep dismissing the breakfast for dinner concept! very much alas. it's legitimate!

[im_gonna_heal_u]

I understand, but

I'm always a fan of something hardier later in the day. Now if you asked me about bacon and eggs and grits for dinner...

[hunksmash]

oh man but i would totally eat bacon and eggs and grit for dinner.

[im_gonna_heal_u]

Sounds good, huh?

Anyway, how were you going to make that collective cookbook? I'd love to try out some new things!

[hunksmash]

a cook book might be a few step ahead of where i've landed.

i think i'm going to have an available list of people willing to give lessons/hand out advice, and maybe a recipe list connected to that. i gotta get the first part together first, see how that goes...

do you have anything in particular you'd be looking for?

[im_gonna_heal_u]

I see!

[ Yeah, she might have leapt a bit too far. ]

For me, I'm just looking for a bit of variety compared to the stuff I already cook. I know quite a few Japanese dishes and some Western ones, but I'd like to experiment too!

[hunksmash]

cool! we can probably manage that. most people seem to be of similar cooking persuasion.

how do you feel about coconuts? and fish?

[im_gonna_heal_u]

Those sound fine to me! I haven't cooked with or eaten coconuts very often, but they're a fine ingredient.

[hunksmash]

the most unique stuff i'm familiar with is polynesian cuisine, if you're down for that.

so... raw fish and coconut cream? or coconut sweet rolls?

[im_gonna_heal_u]

Probably the second one? I don't remember the last time I even ate sushi, let alone had anything with raw fish.

[hunksmash]

so noted.

you want a recipe? or an in-house lesson? they aren't very hard, especially if you can find frozen rolls.

[im_gonna_heal_u]

I can use a recipe just fine.

If I have any trouble I can always text you again, right?

[hunksmash]

yeah sure. that'd be fine!

pani popo (samoan coconut rolls):

you need: frozen dinner rolls, 1 can of coconut milk, 1 cup of sugar

1. grease a baking tray and arrange rolls, spaced evenly, to thaw
2. cover and let sit until rolls double in size (this can take a while)
3. preheat oven to 350ºF/175ºC
4. combine coconut milk and sugar, mixing until sugar dissolves.
5. pour 2/3 of mixture over rolls and bake 20-30 mins (til golden brown)
6. remove from oven, apply remaining mixture
7. boom. pani popo.

Nice!

[ Konoka immediately begins copying the recipe and storing it elsewhere on her device. ]

Thanks! Got it saved~
