The CookingBites Recipe Challenge: Wine

[flyinglentris]

No more entries from me in this challenge.

I count 15 from me, but some were things like a coulis and the Spice Islands mash and coulis. The Spice Islands mash and coulis was something I can't yet believe turned out to be such a wonderful thing. Anyway, that's a record number from me. Usually Hemulen posts the most recipes in a challenge and even at 15, I think she probably has that beat in some challenge.

This was a fun challenge and it got me buying more alcohol beverage than I have in a long, long time. I have one full bottle of Cabernet and 2 half bottles, one Pinot Noir and one Albariño, left.

Thanks, The Late Night Gourmet for choosing wine. I learned much about using it when preparing meals.

All right, class: pencils down! The competition is now officially closed. Please pass your papers forward and to the left.

I still need to comment on the last few entries, but here's the full tally...a total of 44 entries. I will provide a summary later. I have been considering each entry and weighing it against the others as they come in, rather than waiting until now to start figuring it out. I was foreman of a jury for an armed robbery trial many years ago, and this is clearly the best way: consider the evidence as it comes in, and don't wait until you have all of it in front of you. I will render a verdict later today.

I still need to comment on the last few entries, but here's the full tally...a total of 44 entries.

I make it 42...

 

[The Late Night Gourmet]

I make it 42...

I've recounted, and I get 43!

 

[flyinglentris]

I make it 42...

It would be 43, if PreppedFRESH had her recipe properly entered. As a new member, I though someone might have helped them out.

Its on The Late Night Gourmet's list above which counts in at 43.

I've now added the tag. I explain the system but forgot to check she had done it. I prompted her to put the link in this thread and amended it as the whole recipe was added instead of a link.

I used to check every entry for tags but now there are so many I can't keep up!

 

[medtran49]

Doesn't mine count?

 

[The Late Night Gourmet]

It's 44...I was wondering how I miscounted, but then i realized I forgot to include medtran49's late entry.

 

[The Late Night Gourmet]

Doesn't mine count?

Sorry...it looks like we spotted this at the same time.

So...my issues with counting aside, I will provide my summary and results shortly.

This just goes to show that being a judge isn't all champagne and caviar - there's real work involved!
