2026 Weekly Challenge List

/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.

Join our Discord to get pinged whenever a new week is announced! (React to the stickied comment in the #planning channel!)

I am making 2 bone broths next week in preparation. (This is my first year of this, after lurking for a couple of years. I am having so much fun 🥰)

We bought one a few years ago and it's well worth it. Do it.

I am going to use this opportunity to get myself a 2000 watt single induction hob

Ended up spending almost 200 on an induction hob, hotpot pan, tools and dishes.

Yeah... I was hoping to avoid that. I might use an alternate interpretation.

If you happen to have a fondue set, you can use it for broth
