sugardetoxme That looks amazing @bbny. What were key highlights from event? Anything stand out?

bbny I'd say the best part was the buzz - the crowd were awesome & the refinery rooftop did a fab job of incorporating many recipes from the cookbook into tasting plates & stations.
What is the best way to incorporate tomatoes, specifically, that have reached their end in look and feel?
-
mirasingh This happens to me all the time because I always over-buy tomatoes. Slice and toss the moldy parts. If you have more than one, these are great for a shakshukah. You can also make a tomato jam like...
