Josh was up and we made a couple things.

Big batch Swedish meatballs

1 - 1.5 cup panko crumbs soaked in 2c milk or as much as makes a soft slurry
4lb ground pork
3 eggs
several tbsp garlic powder
1tsp-ish each nutmeg and allspice
2tsp salt
1/3 cup dried parsley

In mixer ~5 mins till sticky and smooth/adherent

2tbsp meat per meatball

Batch froze

Fry 4min each on 3 sides (maybe 5mins from frozen?) in hot lard. Remove meatballs; add flour and stir till light brown. Add stock, cream, worcestershire sauce, and maybe dijon and boil till thick. Return meatballs to simmer a minute. Fin.

Dashi squash

Skin-on kombocha or skin-off other squash simmered in dashi and mirin. If using hondashi, slightly stronger than 1tsp per cup.

Honourable mentions
Chestnut pie; butter & lard crust, blind bake, custard & candied chestnut paste filling w/ folded in meringue from eggwhites.

Juniper in coppa is great.

Fried 50/50 rye/wheat bread in the bacon fat.
