Ideas for new cooking challenges
The last (and first time) I created a challenge I just wrote something up what I thought to be a good first start. Soon after I posted the challenge, @manassehkatz posted valid comments about unclear conditions regarding the challenge.
So before posting a new one, I thought it may be worthwhile to collect some ideas here on our meta site and see what's received as a good idea and what not. Additionally, we can discuss specifics of a challenge right here - that way, rules follow a consensus so we can concentrate on cooking and baking :)
Please upvote challenge ideas based on what you would like to see and where you are likely to participate. In the original post are some inspirations how a challenge could look like.
Post
Contest category suggestion: cook something from or inspired by a specified culture.
Potential issues:
- not everyone will have the ingredients on hand
- may be difficult to define the boundaries of a particular culture's cuisine.
E.g. Challenge: Greece. Post a dish hailing from or inspired by Greek cuisine.
Responses might include tzatziki, moussaka, or a twist on spanakopita.
Most people are likely somewhat familiar with Greek cuisine, but this could be a way to challenge ourselves to learn more about the food of countries we are aren't terribly knowledgeable about! The challenge poster should likely provide links to several resources for recipes as well.
