That’s right! I am open to requests! Seriously! If you’ve had a hankering for something specific, if there’s a dish you’ve never tried but have always been curious about (whether its a classic, or something totally obscure like Skoudekharis from Djibouti), if you have this idea of ingredients you’d like to see together in a meal and want to see it in action (bring on the challenge!), or if you simply want me to have a good laugh by requesting something totally ridiculous (yes, I’m allowed to make that judgement call!), leave a comment here describing your request.
I keep a running list of requests and who knows, YOUR dish request may be the next one to appear on The Daring Gourmet!

I would be super-psyched to find a tested chicken thukpa soup recipe (Nepali). I love it and the recipes I see vary a good bit and don’t look like the soup I get at my favorite Nepali restaurant.

Your Killer Peanut butter cake was the first I have had in about 30 years that actually tasted like peanut butter. I am a peanut butter junkie and will typically eat a spoonful for desert.
My request is how to make a peanut butter cake similar to the recipe you came up with but with perhaps half the amount of sugar or less.
The reason being that I am a diabetic and really should not be consuming anything as near as sweet as that cake but still have the good, deep, peanut butter flavor.
Kimberly @ The Daring Gourmet says
I’m so happy to hear that, Brad, thanks for the feedback! To cut back on the sugar you can simply replace it with a sugar substitute. For example, Swerve Powdered Sugar for the frosting and Swerve Brown Sugar for the cake.

Kimberly, my dad was Norwegian from the western islands near Stavanger, and used to love my grandmother’s Kumla. He passed away a year ago, and I want to try making it for my brother. My grandmother didn’t have a written down recipe, but I know she used ham. I’d love an authentic Norwegian Kumla recipe.

You rave about German pickles in some of your recipes… do you have a recipe for German pickles? My great grandmother, who came over on the boat from Germany, made lime pickles, too (dark green, made with lime)… that were just… sublime. :)
Kimberly @ The Daring Gourmet says
Hi G., I don’t but I wish I did! I’ve made American dill pickles but somehow it’s never occurred to me to try and make German ones. Hmmmmm :) Those lime pickles sound really good indeed!

Hi! I have been trying to find a dish that my African friends mom made once when I was 12..it was very spicy. And it was beef and some sort of broccoli or spinach. I have, to no avail, Googled myself silly trying to find out what this dish is so I can make it now that Im almost 40 lol. Thanks for any help.

Dear Kimberly, Have you ever done the balls of Ice cream that you coat in something and then deep fry it and the ice cream doesn’t melt.

Your photos on making quark were excellent; it would have been very beneficial if they had also been able to copy for reference. It irked me to little that I had a recipe and no photos as guidelines.
