Subject: Notes from Tuesday's brainstorming<br>
<br>
Hi everyone,<br>
<br>
Following up on our meeting. The main themes for the next quarter's content calendar are shaping up. Mark suggested focusing on seasonal ingredients that are readily available. For instance, butternut squash recipes for the fall. Sarah mentioned that sheet-pan dinners continue to be highly requested for their simplicity.<br>
<br>
We discussed a potential series: "One Vegetable, Three Ways." Example with zucchini: 1) Spiralized as a pasta base with a light tomato sauce, 2) Grilled slices with a herb marinade as a side, 3) Shredded into morning muffins for a savory twist. Let me know your thoughts on this format.<br>
<br>
Alex brought up the point about cook times. We should always include both conventional and convection oven instructions where applicable. Also, remember to note when a dish is suitable for meal prep and how to store it properly. Transparency on storage has been a positive piece of feedback.<br>
<br>
On the equipment front, the team is split between featuring classic tools versus newer kitchen gadgets. Perhaps we do a balanced mix. A piece on the versatility of a good quality chef's knife versus a dedicated vegetable chopper. Practicality is key.<br>
<br>
For the international cuisine segment, we're considering a deep dive into regional variations of a common dish. Think about the different ways rice is prepared—paella, biryani, jollof, risotto. It would be educational and highlight diverse techniques.<br>
<br>
Regarding dietary notes, we must continue to clearly tag recipes for common considerations. Jill will draft a reminder for contributors about checking ingredient labels for potential allergens when suggesting substitutions.<br>
<br>
The conversation about food photography moved towards natural lighting. The consensus was to avoid overly styled shots and aim for the "this is how it looks on my counter" authenticity. We'll schedule a brief workshop with the design team next week.<br>
<br>
Finally, the idea of a "cook-along" virtual event was floated. We would pick a moderately challenging recipe and guide members through it in real-time. Logistics to be determined, but the interest seemed high. Let's revisit this in our next sync.<br>
<br>
Please add any other meeting points I may have missed to the shared document by end of day Thursday.<br>
<br>
Best,<br>
The Content Team<br>

Internal memo: Update pantry staple list to include smoked paprika and tahini. Both are appearing in more contemporary recipes. Check inventory for the upcoming photo shoot. Confirm with facilities about the lighting equipment for the studio next Monday. The sample plates have been ordered from the new supplier for review. Remember to test the audio for the tutorial recordings in the small kitchen space.<br>
<br>
Personal note: Tried the roasted chickpea method from last month's notes. Crisping them at a higher temperature for five extra minutes made a significant difference. Served with a yogurt sauce. Simple and effective. Might be worth a short feature on protein-packed snacks. The key is rinsing and drying them thoroughly before seasoning. A little avocado oil worked well.<br>
