Looking for a recipe for crusty rosemary garlic buns
So Thanksgiving is coming up in Canada, and I wanted to wanted to change things up from serving store-bought bread

Looking for a great pumpkin soup recipe
Pumpkin season here in the UK isn’t that long, every year during these few weeks I try to recreate a pumpkin soup recipe that I made once 6 years ago and then lost by the time the next year rolled around. And I fail miserably - as in throw the whole lot away because just unpleasant fail!
This pumpkin soup was amazing, it tasted like Christmas in a bowl. It included spices like nutmeg, cinnamon, maybe ginger. I have a feeling that it used coconut milk but I can’t be sure. I do remember roasting the pumpkin before adding onto the soup and blending.
Here these are Christmassy flavours but I think they might be Thanksgiving flavours too so I’m hoping that someone might be able to help! Pumpkin isn’t hugely popular in the UK so I’m hoping some international input might be more successful than the recipes I’ve been trying!

Any awesome recipes that include cherry tomatoes?
We brought home about 3 baskets of cherry tomatoes and I was wondering if anyone had any dinner dish ideas? I’m worried most of them will spoil before we get to use them (they’re mostly used for salads or pasta dishes).

Recipes with potatoes?
I’ve recently come in possession of maybe 45 pounds of potatoes (might be more, not sure). I’ve made a few batches of fries, but what else should I do with them? What are your favorite potato dishes, and what type of stuff can I add to them to make it fun?

chili suggestions
I came home to a bag of assorted spicy pepper on my door knob, have no idea who put them there as i dont have many friends but i guess they all know i like hot peppers, im also very broke atm and figure i'll stretch the rest of my food out into making chili. im a good cook but have never made chili before. this is what i plan on doing plz let me know you you have any suggestions besides tomatoes or noodles.
- turkey, bratwurst and 80/20 hamburgers thawed and mixed together.. just working with what i got
- chilies
- kidney and chili beans
- someone told me to try peanut butter, so i guess that.
- chili powder, garlic powder,oregano maybe a little brown sugar if i had any
- tomato paste
- water
- about as many onions as i can fit
topped with cheese and sour cream with crackers, also i dont have any large pots so it will be cooked in a crock pot.

What Should I Do With All My Chilis?!?
Yesterday, I found myself at the chili stall of my local farmers market. I settled on some Habaneros and some Mirasols and was set. I went up to pay, and the vendor told me she had something “special” for me behind her counter- to which she pulled out a big ole bag of chilis I didn’t recognize. They turned out to be Thai Chilis. I walked away with about half a pound of them.
What do I do with these things?!? They look and smell amazing, but I’ve never cooked with them. For reference I’m vegetarian. Thanks y’all!

Copy Me That app no longer available?!
Not sure if anyone else frequently uses the Copy Me That Recipe Organizer website and app on their phone, but the app is no longer available on the Apple App store. I tried to download on another device, and it says that it is only available on the New Zealand app store. This is a really great app, but I was wondering if anyone else had the same problem!

Corned Beef w/ Cranberries and Mustard?
My (deceased) mom used to make a dish for the High Holidays that I'm trying to re-create, but I can't find anything similar online, I'm hoping someone could help me.
The dish she would make was a Corned Beef with a mustard and cranberry sauce. The way she would make it (I think) is by first making the sauce, then pouring it over the meat and then would place the meat in a pan on a wire rack with water at the bottom and then wrap the whole thing in tin foil.
Does that make sense? Does anyone know how to do something like this and can help me figure it out? I live at altitude, if that matters too.
Thanks!!!

Introduction to non vegetarian
I've been a meat eater most of my life, but my mom is quite a religious (Hindu) woman and though she hasn't ever tried to dissuade me from eating meat, she's remained vegetarian all her life.
Recently, her mom passed away and she's like "I wanna try new things in life before I die". And trying to cook and eat non vegetarian food is on her to do list. The problem is that she'd not touch any kind of mutton/pork/fish etc, beef is banned in the country and it's quite difficult to get your hands on many varieties of fowl. So my options are (until now) limited to chicken. So can anyone suggest me a spicy(ish) chicken recipe with an Indian twist which will make her first time eating non vegetarian food memorable (and will hopefully open up wider culinary options for her)

Are red beans the same as red kidney beans?
I wanna make some dorayaki at home but I don't know what red beans exactly are, I have only seen Rajma (Kidney Beans) being sold here.
Can I use those to make sweet red bean paste?

Is there a trick to slicing open arepas?
I have just discovered arepas. The ones I make at home are great but I have been having a terrible time slicing them open to fill. I have tried all different knives and wetting or buttering the blade but it is always a huge problem of the knife getting totally gunked up before I can properly slice the arepa open. Is there a trick to it?
