I've just taken a clam and tomato pizza out of the oven. Wonder if I can recall where the camera is..![]()
Is anyone else having a problem with Vera's pics? They came out side by side for some reason instead of stacked. At least for me. I like to limit my scrolling to mono directional (lol).
Nice mussels, VB.
Thank you for pointing that out, Barb.
You.......

I wholeheartedly agree with chow!! Things are really getting out of whack with this. It was originally set up to "cook" the ingredient that specific week! There are also some ingredients that "specifically" state what the ingredient entails, like LT mentioned.......read it before going off on a tangent!!!
The theme of Iron Chef is to have one ingredient, and everyone makes something of it. So we thought it would be fun to start an Iron Chef tradition here at NCT where an ingredient is picked, then everyone makes their dish from it.
It’s not really a competition. There is no judging or winner. It’s more of a challenge for everyone to say “hey, the ingredient is X and I can make this”, then post it with pics.
There are no “real” Iron Chefs. Iron Chef is just the theme in that we have an ingredient and everyone cooks it. That way, we get so many takes and interpretations of the theme ingredient.
It’s a fun way to challenge ourselves and also boost recipe and pic count for NCT!
Plus, it’s just cool. Instead of thinking what’s for dinner, now we think, how am I going to cook this???? Should be a blast. You’ve got a week to come up with something, so it should be fun!
thank you sassNice clams Peeps, and Vy, that is just super!
Very elegant and tasty looking![]()
