"Culinary Lockdown Legacy: What Recipes Stuck with Us?" As the world slowly returns to normal, many of us are reflecting on the unexpected culinary discoveries made during the lockdown period. For one home cook, the experience sparked a love affair with Marian Burros' plum tart, a recipe shared on Twitter by a cooking journalist. The simplicity and flavor of the tart have made it a staple in their kitchen, with the sweet and tangy combination of ripe plums being the perfect treat for warm weather. But what about you? Did you stumble upon new recipes or cooking techniques during the lockdown that have become a lasting part of your culinary routine?
During the lockdown, we did a lot of baking here at home , such as coconut macaroons and filled cookies (with homemade almond paste). Or Melanzane alla parmigiana from our favorite Italian restaurant, which we couldn't go to anymore at the time. But I did get one recipe from – back then – Twitter: from a cooking journalist, who was baking and cooking during the lockdown and made Marian Burros's plum tart from the New York Times. Ultimately, I still make this tart whenever plums are in season because it is a quick and easy recipe and the result is super tasty (especially now that the plums are so ripe). What has stuck with you culinarily from the lockdown period? Which dishes did you discover back then and have you been making ever since? submitted by /u/Jun_the_Swan [link] [comments]
