Tonight I think I'll try my hand at Home Chef's chicken, mushroom, and ancient grain risotto. And wine, definitely wine!

Yes , seems quite popular to use activated charcoal powder , food grade , these days for healthy wellness trend .
The charcoal brioche / buns will always be obvious as are the only black ones if served in a basket ( unless others ones are also charcoal ) rye is lighter shade .



Black / dark one ( s ) , other one is hidden

Fascinating. Does it taste just like a regular brioche, or otherwise are you able to describe it's unique taste?

Thats an awesome price for any fish. Around here, maybe tilapia or catfish in sale, but most fish would retail at $10-25 a pound.

thanks. Costco Sf. Yet if it’s from Canada, how can it be fresh? Surely it’s frozen on boat, shipped to a Costco distribution center, trucked to the local Costco store, thawed, and repackaged in-store.

I am strongly trusting that it’s wild and not farmed.

mega yum! Whered you get the ingredients? How easy are they to make? I did read that inserting frozen soup within the dumpling is how the soup is part of the dumpling; I read it in a China tourism magazine or webpage in 2006.

Umm, someone else prepared them... I think they were premade, so not freshly made.

Regardless, they were tasty.
