Hello and welcome to this thing we’re doing where we help you figure out what you’re gonna put in your mouth this week. Some of these are recipes we’ve tried, some of these are recipes we’re looking forward to trying, all of them are fucking delicious. Tell us what you want to put in your piehole or suggest your own recipes, and we’ll talk about which things we made, which things we loved, and which things have changed us irreversibly as people.

‘Tis the season for having a mostly drunk bottle of leftover champagne or sparkling wine in the fridge. First of all, you can totally still drink it. Second, you can also make it into so many things. There are sweet options like donuts and waffles and champagne cake, but there are also loads of savory ones, like clams and cream sauces and risotto. Use it straight from the bottle, as in the following recipes, or turn it into vinegar and live all your dreams. Also, unless you were drinking some weird flavored bullshit, consider using it in any recipe that might call for white wine. BAM.
