A meal should be the result of reflection and study and timed to perfection. Without the culinary arts the crudeness of reality would be unbearable.
Life is not just comprised of tasks but tastes. I love the art of food, like a sculpture or a painting giving the eyes and the body sustenance. We eat everyday but do we participate with our food, do we notice it ? lets enjoy this journey together. Feeding ourselves and our loved ones while supporting our local farms and businesses

I have always liked photos of my creations in mid production. I think it’s more interesting. I have studied a photography course in the past. That happened because of my time in culinary school and am finding it far more useful to tweek my memory with a photo log.
I hope you are all well and safe. Help where you can. Especially help the younger generation, they need you. There comes a time when we can’t contribute in the same way but many of us are libraries not meant to be left on the shelf.

Thai Hot and Sweet Dipping Sauce
Perfect for cold Thai rice paper rolls, this sauce is also delicious with any type of deep-fried Asian appetizer, such as spring rolls, chicken balls or wontons. Try it alongside grilled chicken or perk up your next homemade salad dressing with a few tablespoons.

Stretching protein while also adding veggies is wonderful. Clean the crisper in the refrigerator and add what you have.
This is Mongolian beef stir fry with udon noodles. I barely used a heaping tablespoon of the beef mixture. Once I stir fried a small amount of onion and green pepper, I added the beef and then the noodles.
This plate was plenty for myself and my daughter.
I hope all is well.

Canned chickpeas, ready to use, are really useful to have on hand for making quick dips from, for adding to soups, for garnishing salads, etc. You can make your own for pennies a jar.

In modern home canning terms, a buckled lid is a permanently distorted metal lid on top a jar. The jar should be treated as unsealed, even if it has sealed. What causes this, and how do you prevent it?

It has been a long eight weeks, but I am finally half way in my total knee replacement recovery. I am in the kitchen again. I made a double baked cheese stuffed potato lunch for my family. Hubby and baby were so happy mom is cooking and it’s delicious.
Remember potatoes are healthy and inexpensive so why not make them as a meal.
I hope you are all well and safe.

RANCHO GORDO BLACK LENTILS ARE AMAZING This is one of my favourite lentil recipes. I have adjusted it somewhat over time. I found the original recipe in an article about a Persian restaurant in Delhi that serves this meal every day ( 60 pounds of lentils per day). I made this small sauce pan with 1/2 cup of lentils. I have to tell you it is decadent and luxurious. It could easily serve three to four people. It is usually served with a fresh tomato and onion in small cubes and a warm flat bread for scooping. I am making it today especially for my MIL . http://cookinmumsculinaryadventures.blogspot.com/2020/01/caviar-lentils-make-luxurious-meatless.html
Great Northern Beans in a Creamy Spice Sauce
I love a good lentil or bean recipe. I published one in my blog Jan 18 2020. I used black lentils that time. Be assured making it with any bean seems to work fine. I added some sour cream and fresh garlic at the end when I plated it up. Heavenly. Times are pushing us harder to reinvent our cooking priorities to include many more meatless meals. This is a fabulous meal. Ingredients - Yield for 2-3 people: 1/2 cup black lentils 1 garlic clove peeled Small pieces of white onion to flavor the water (can be big pieces, though, and later removed) 1 bay leaf, to be removed once lentils are cooked Water, enough to cover the lentils by 1 inch 1 heaping tablespoon garlic-ginger paste 1 heaping tablespoon tomato paste 3 - 4 tablespoons crispy fried onions 1 teaspoon curry powder Salt to taste, added at the end of the cooking 1 teaspoon red chili powder 1/2 cup of cream 1/4 cup butter 1/4 cup fresh small cubed onion 1/4 finely chopped fresh cilantro Method: Take out the lentils and carefully check for stones or broken lentils and discard them. Rinse them thoroughly. If your lentils are old, soak them overnight. Ranch Gordo lentils can be cooked without soaking. Most of their beans can. Place the lentils in a pot with the onion and bay leaf and cover with one inch of water. Bring to boil. Then turn to a low simmer for 30 minutes. Monitor as the water will decrease. If you add water it is best to make it boiling water, I keep a kettle of it ready.
I make bone broth from leftover roast chicken bones and freeze it for future use. I used one quart. I used bacon fat I kept from a previous meal to wilt the leeks and onions ( as many as you like ) I had half a quart bag leeks frozen and used half a finely sliced onion. I used a cup frozen cauliflower florets and 6-7 small white potatoes. I added two heaping tablespoons of flour to the onion/leek mixture and stirred it in for a nice roux thickener. Then the cauliflower and potatoes and broth. I add boiled water after if I need more liquid. When it’s cooked and the potatoes are soft I will purée the contents for a smooth soup, I will add some milk or cream at the end to make it richer and have a better mouth feel. Sometimes I add a dollop of butter for the same reason. This is an excellent inexpensive meal. My family loves it. A slice of fresh bread and your all set. I also send meals to our seniors and I know this one if filling and good in the gut for them. Take care stay safe and help where you can.
I have been blessed to have enough food and a roof over my head and my family is safe. These times are so stressful but we must keep hope and stay the course to the future. I have been absent for a few months as I have had knee replacement surgery but I am now on the mend and the kitchen is once again perking along. I am hoping one or a few of my followers will review my page so that I may start fresh with a few more following my posts. Today I share my dinner from yesterday. I like to make turmeric rice and include vegetables directly in the rice . Then I add seafood to the top and allow the rice to cook as usual. That poaches the seafood and makes this meal a one pot meal. I hope you are all well and safe.
