I wrote a post when I was on mastodon.cloud that I wish I could find again to share as it was really lovely but since I can’t, I wanted to recreate it here. I had asked folks if they would share what their comfort #food was and if they happened to have one, a link to a #recipe for how to make it. It was so great, folks from all over the world replied and there were some really fantastic foods that a lot of people had never seen before. If folks wouldn’t mind boosting this a bit, I bet we can get a great food thread going. I suspect we all could do with a bit of comfort right now.

Mine is a good, rich macaroni and cheese. I wrote up the recipe that I’ve been using for the better part of my life on my website: https://monkeyguild.org/posts/mac-and-cheese/

@monkeyninja@10base2.dev I get a lot of comfort from making pizza dough with my stand mixer and finishing it off by hand. Something about punching the dough down and watching it poof back up again is really satisfying. Any simple #pizza dough recipe will do with a simple modification that I never see elsewhere: sub in a little stock with the water, and sprinkle in a little garam masala powder with the flour. These subtly raise the savory level of the crust by about a million percent.
