What have you been pandemic cooking?

 


News stories are full of lifestyle pieces about how an extended pandemic quarantine, with food shortages in the early months of 2020 due to a disrupted supply chain, people sheltering in place at home with an inability to dine out have all combined to change the landscape of cooking. TG I remodeled my kitchen in 2018! While I always cooked for my family - and am getting pretty tired of it, as I’ve been doing it for 50 years now - my kids are grown and I can have pleasure taking it up a notch..... away from the “kid friendly” meals of yore.
