Potato, bean, and kale stew with gochujang Gochujang is a spicy Korean paste. Our daughter uses it frequently but this my first recipe to use it in. The amount suggested in the recipe is mildly spicy and will not blow your head off. You serve the stew with rice so it is a 3-carb dinner, potatoes, beans, and rice. Who doesn’t love carbs!

Two weeks in a row, ChatGPT botched my grocery list. I thought that I had found a really solid, practical use for AI—automating one of my least favorite Sunday chores—but the bot turned out to be pretty darn bad at it. I fed it a link to a recipe for cauliflower shawarma with a spicy sauce and asked it to compile the ingredients in a list.
