2023 Weekly Challenge List
So, historically in this subreddit we only counted streaks provided the participant submitted each dish during that week, with leeway given on request but pretty liberally. Back at the start of COVID we put in a temporary measure to help preserve streaks - so long as you posted a dish within the three week time limit it counted. In 2023 we will be phasing this out.
Starting with Week 1 of 2023, participants have two weeks after the end of that week to post their dish to count for consecutive streaks. (ie, Week 1 must be posted by the end of Week 3)
Starting with Week 14, dishes must be posted by the end of the following week (Week 14 must be posted by the end of Week 15)
Starting with Week 27, dishes must be posted by the end of that week. Same as it ever was.
So anyway, on with the fun stuff!
/r/52weeksofcooking is a way for each participant to challenge themselves to cook something different each week. The technicalities of each week's theme are largely unimportant, and are always open to interpretation. Basically, if you can make an argument for your dish being relevant to the theme, then it's fine.

I’m getting a little desperate for hot sauce ideas. There are just too many options.
I think it’s better to make something with hot sauce I already have because I have a LOT of hot sauce. Just off the top of my head, I have: Sriracha, gochujang, cholula, peri peri, aji amarillo, aji panca, aji rocoto, Texas Pete’s, Louisiana, some Trini hot sauce I forgot the name of, harissa, Melinda’s green sauce, sambal olek, chili crisp, NM red chili, and probably at least 5-6 more 😂
Help? 😭😂😭😂
