Before you post

• Say your goal (budget, macros, time), equipment and how many days you are packing for.
• One-off recipe troubleshooting fits the cooking where-to-post page; baking failures fit baking.
• Food-safety edge cases may need official guidance — peer tips are not a food-safety authority.
