Is the Dhungar Method (charcoal-smoking food in a pot) safe to do inside my house?

the technique: https://www.epicurious.com/expert-advice/dhungar-method-smoky-ghee-article#:~:text=The%20dhungar%20method%20is%20a,most%20commonly%20a%20lidded%20pot

This is the recipe I want to make (also shows pictures of the dhungar method): https://www.vegrecipesofindia.com/dal-makhani-restaurant-style-recipe/

I just learned about this: you take a steel bowl, heat a piece of charcoal and put it in the bowl, set it on cooked food that's in a dutch oven, close the lid and let it smoke for a couple minutes.

I heard that charcoal smoke is very unhealthy to have inside so I'm just wondering if this method (which only uses one piece of charcoal) would be ok to do inside an apartment.

Also, what would be the best way to dispose of the charcoal after?

Freezing garlics making it less pungent?

Been struggling to get that strong garlic kick in my dishes recently. I know all the science behind the allicin and all that, I make Sure to add it right at the end and to mince/crush the cloves as much as possible. I found a couple of articles that say the alliinase which forms the allicin gets neutralized by freezing. Most other sources as well as professional chefs I’ve seen mention it say it’s fine, though. Just looking for someone knowledgeable on the subject or personal experience.

Tesla just delivered its first all-electric Semi truck to PepsiCo and said it can cover up to 500 miles on a single charge

  • Tesla delivered its first electric semitrailer truck to PepsiCo on Thursday.
  • The delivery was made after several years of delay.
  • Tesla CEO Elon Musk said in October the company is aiming to make 50,000 Semis in North America in 2024.

Tesla on Thursday delivered its first electric semitrailer truck to PepsiCo, as the electric vehicle maker expands its offerings beyond passenger cars.

Elon Musk, the CEO of Tesla, drove a Semi to the delivery event, which was held at a factory near Reno, Nevada.

The Semi is the automaker's all-electric, class-8 cargo trucks with a range between 300 and 500 miles on a single charge, depending on the model. 

"If you're a trucker and you want the most badass rig on the road, this is it," said Musk at the Thursday event.

Tesla's delivery of the Semi trucks came after several years of delay. They were first unveiled in 2017 and initially slated for delivery in 2019 — but the plan delayed in part due to a shortage of parts and supply chain challenges.

Musk said at Tesla's third-quarter earnings call in October that the electric vehicle maker is aiming to produce 50,000 Semis in North America in 2024, according to a transcript of the call. He declined to reveal the exact prices but said they would cost "much more than a passenger vehicle."

In August 2022, Musk tweeted that Tesla would begin shipping the 500-mile Semi, and the Cyber Truck —  its futuristic-looking electric pickup — by 2023.

A spokesperson for PepsiCo told Insider in October that the Semi trucks will be supporting the company's beverages plant in Sacramento and its Frito-Lay factory in Modesto, California.

Musk did not take any questions at the end of the event, which sparked some skepticism over the vehicle's capabilities, Reuters reported. Oliver Dixon, a senior analyst at consultancy Guidehouse told the news agency this was "Not very impressive - moving a cargo of chips (average weight per pack 52 grams) cannot in any way be said to be definitive proof of concept."

Tesla did not immediately respond to Insider's request for comment sent outside business hours.

Hanukkah meal—timing foods so they stay warm

Hi. So we’re doing chicken schnitzel, latkes, roasted veggies, mac and cheese, and deep fried apple turnovers for dessert for between 15-20 people.

I’m curious how you guys would time these out? We only have one oven. We will prep our veggies and the potatoes ahead of time, and fill our apple turnovers and keep them in the fridge until we’re ready to fry…but knowing we have to shallow fry latkes and schnitzel and cook the roasted veggies I’m not sure how to keep everything warm so we can all eat together.

I think I could find a crockpot Mac and cheese recipe but in the past baked is always better. I’m a little at a loss.

TIA for your advice!
