The Ultimate Snickers Pie
Okay, peanuts added to ingredient list, 150 grams. Reserve half of the white chocolate peanut butter for another use. Use half of the chopped frozen peanut butter in Step 9 and the other half in Step 13. I fixed it above and apologize for any confusion!

Ideas in Food vs. The Snickers Bar (or How to Make the Ultimate Snickers Pie)
Okay I would agree that regular sized snickers bars are a little hard to eat frozen. But anyone who grew up going to Jones Beach out on Long Island may remember the siren call of those guys who walked around with coolers yelling FROOOZEN SNICKERS BARS! FUDGIE WUDGIE BARS! ORANGE CREAMSICLES! There's nothing quite like sitting in the hot sun, feet buried in the sand, with the ocean in front of you, trying to bite through a frozen snickers bar. To my knowledge those were the only things in their coolers but as far as I was concerned they only needed the chocolate bars. They left me with a lifetime love for gnawing on frozen caramel.
That said, anyone trying a frozen Snickers bar for the first time should get the little ones. They are small enough so that the caramel shatters when you bite into them and the whole thing melts into a sweet gooey mass as you chew them...

Layered Toasted-Coconut Puddings With Red Fruit Purée and Coconut Cream
Joyce--that would be soak in the refrigerator overnight.
Layered Toasted-Coconut Puddings With Red Fruit Purée and Coconut Cream
Yes, to make it without a pressure cooker we would combine the ingredients for the coconut pudding the night before and let them soak overnight to hydrate. The next day transfer everything to a pot and simmer for 10-15 minutes until the pudding thickens and resembles the texture of polenta.
...And yes, it's a lot of components but the recipe is written so that's relatively easy to break out the individual pieces that appeal to you and just make those. While we enjoy making the entire dish we try to design recipes that people can have fun with and make their own.
Ideas in Food vs. The Steak Bomb: The Filling
We've done it both ways, you can wrap up a plate of extra sandwiches and snack on them straight from the fridge. I wouldn't keep these for more than a day or two. Or you can make the sandwiches to order and then save the parts separately. What we like about that is that you can use the different components to make new meals, like pastas or omelettes/frittatas or steak quesadillas, etc.
The Steak Bomb With Flap Steak, Scallions, and Salami-Cheese Crisps
Either would work. We use the torch because it helps preserve some of the raw flavor of the green onions to balance out the sweet, jammy texture of the slow cooked peppers and onions but a quick sear on the grill or under the broiler or even in a cast iron skillet would be delicious too.
The thigh in the image appears to be an issue. We butterfly and dredge bone in thighs. They usually do not shrink back up into nice neat packages. In the Serious Eats Test Kitchen it appears they have. We observe a visual difference. The recipe is the same.
The recipe as a model works with boneless chicken thighs. We often go off recipe. As for timing, we don't have it recorded.

The style and flavor is Japanese. That does not mean it is Ginger-Scallion-Garlic in your face chicken. It should be balanced and seasoned. If the intensity of the flavors is not bold enough, increase them. Recipes are models.
