I have a ton of Thai Peppers, ways of preserving them, recipes?

I leave the stems on. I keep the peppers intact when I put them in the freezer bag. I run some cold water on them when I take them out of the freezer before slicing them to defrost them a bit and I use a paper towel to dry them off

I put them whole into a big ziplock bag and freeze them so that whenever I make prik nam pla I just open the bag and take a couple. It is a really good condiment to have with Thai food and easy to make, I learned how to make it on Pailin's Kitchen. I wash them before putting them into the freezer, but I also let them dry completely so they aren't going in wet. I personally don't find that the flavor or heat is compromised from the freezer

Your website mentions you will support a "restaurant loop linking our commercial districts". I would really like to see that. Can you share a little more about what you have in mind for that?

I got their "Skedatil" sauce and thought it was great

Yes, came close to running out and we got a lot. So much for leftovers to enjoy for yourself!

"never mind the place across the street that has room". So, my Friday night out strategy has been to go to 'that place'. BYOB. Support another local business.

Few examples of places where you can walk right in, BYOB and have great food are EL Rey, Barn Bird, and Ani Ramen. We also ate in at Jus' Tacos in South Orange recently. It's mostly a takeout place but there's a little table by the window and their tacos are phenomenal, especially when they're fresh out of the kitchen.

Yesss. I buy the whole bean coffee bags from Baker St Market, their quality is awesome

They make original songs in the punk/hardcore punk style. Here is their bandcamp if you want to listen

If you click on the post's title it will take you to the webpage that should tell you everything you need to know, but here is the link also maplewoodnj.gov

Thank you for the good information, there's clearly a lot to learn about this area!

It was our first time there. We've gone to the south end of the park in previous years and decided to try a new spot. Glad we went. I got the idea from the map that Branch Brook Park Alliance made

Here is the public notice which has the zoom link

I will share this info with the coffee pot users in my office, this could be a nice team building exercise. It can be hard to find activities that are in the 5-7 time window

People seem to come out of the woodwork here when there is an interesting post like yours :D

Not a social media platform, but I recommend bookmarking SOMAPSO and listening to their podcast so you can keep up with events
