One of my favourite foods is cheese; cheese on toast, macaroni cheese, cheese on crackers, jacket potato and cheese. Whatever the dish may be, i usually find one way or another to make sure this delicious product is included in my meals. The "posher" cheeses such as Brie, Camembert, Stilton and Roquefort are all delicious although usually costly. However, my love is blind and i am not deterred by the most basic Baby Bells, Philadelphia or even Cheese Strings. One evening last week... more...

Canned sodas and energy drinks are loaded with mostly sugar. These drinks, as tasty and delicious as they are, are not a very wise choice if you are conscious of your health and what you put into your stomachs as well as your bodies. However, there are lots of other substitutes for canned sodas and the popular energy drinks that are just as tasty, if not more delicious. The best thing about these substitutes is that you can make these at home and control the ingredients that are put into it.<... more...

Many people think it takes too long to cook at home, they are too busy or just do not have the time. It makes me so frustrated to hear people say this. I find time to make meals every day in my kitchen despite having a hectic life. Normally I cook the same dishes that you find at your favorite restaurants. Restaurants need to be able to serve large numbers of people quickly. Their dishes need to be simple to make and fast to cook. Having a dependable compendium of restaurant copy cat recipes h... more...

Your grandma did it, your ma did it, and now probably you are doing it too. I am speaking of reverse engineering. No, I am not indicating any high-tech geek stuff here. I am only talking about something most women and some men all over the world do, cooking. If you have knowledge about cooking, you will always try to reverse engineer the dishes that you taste, consciously or subconsciously. You reverse engineer when you try to construct the recipe of a delicious dish that you get to sample. How ... more...

When you are paying so much for fruit, you want to keep them as fresh as possible. You may not know how to do that or what kinds of equipment you may need for it. Why not try a vacuum food sealer. When you want your veggies or fruit, you may not think about keeping them good for a longer period of time. This is because you are just thinking about what you want to eat right now and not about what you could be in for later. If you don't think about this, you could be in for a lot o... more...

Whether she is a cooking whiz or she is a novice at cooking, every woman who cooks has some secret easily cook up her flour-dabbed sleeve. No two persons can ever cook alike, even if one of them has learnt from the other. The personal touch is very important. And that is the reason why the restaurants make such roaring business. Just tell me, you may have eaten at a hundred restaurants. Now which two restaurants prepared it with the same taste? The thing is, each restaurant, like every wo... more...

You can save time by cooking meals days in advance and storing them. If you are a busy individual and you don't have time during your crazy work week to cook dinner, try cooking on the weekends. If you plan your meals carefully, you can quickly and easily prepare them. Try purchasing meats and seasoning them on Saturday or Sunday. Then, you can use a vacuum food sealer to keep them fresh and store them until you are ready to cook and eat them. If you would like, you can even cook the... more...

Until about ten years ago, America's top secret restaurant remained mostly within America itself. It used to be very difficult for foreigners to get a taste of these recipes. Only a few countries that were closely associated with America could get a hold of them and sample them. In fact, American food is lighter than most cuisines around the world, everything is used in moderation. But the overall taste of American food is quite palatable to someone on the move. That is the origin of the te... more...

Almost every person that has an interest in cooking, even just a fleeting interest, will try and find newer and newer recipes to try out. On an average, women around the world who are in charge of their kitchens try out 1 to 4 new recipes in a month. Some of them try out even more than that. There are women who do not like cooking even a single meal without something new in it, at least there should be a salad or a drink that they have never made before. There is a fewer number of people... more...

You may be a wizard cook, or you may not be able to whip up a decent meal even if threatened at the point of a gun. No one is born with culinary talents. But the irony is, everyone is born with gastronomical tastes. This is like the classic economic situation where there is a phenomenal amount of demand but no supply. But this is just not done. What I say, through my experience of being a chef for 20 years, is this, whether or not you are marvelous at cooking, you must know at least three secret... more...

The wines of Spain have gone through enormous changes the last few years. Spain's wines are deeply rooted in years of traditional ways, but have developed into some excellent and exciting contemporary wines. Part of his transition was due to the rediscovery of forgotten grapes and obscure wine regions to create powerful, distinctive wines that compete with the world's best, yet remain distinctively Spanish in character. Spain's wine laws are similar to those of the French... more...

In the early 1970s one of the first celebrity chefs hit the TV screens of Australia and Great Britain in the form of Graham Kerr, 'The Galloping Gourmet'. Kerr was a leader in stripping away a lot of the over-complicated cooking methods still being peddled in many cookbooks. His teaching premise was as simple as his recipes - learn a basic method first and everything else will follow. My recipe for boiled rice is a variation on his original method, the main difference be... more...

The smoothies are undergoing a recipe revolution. Normal fruits such as bananas, strawberries, and peaches are no longer the only ingredients used in these energy surprises.

This sweet crown is not marketed for sale in the United States. This is because of the tremendous risk of the Mediterranean fruit fly infestation... more...

Poaching eggs is a skill that is rapidly disappearing from the kitchens of the world, thanks to those awful patent cookers that produce something with the appearance, and consistency, of a plastic amoeba. I'm not exaggerating when I say it's a skill. Poaching an egg in such a way that it retains its shape and texture is something that many chefs, let alone home cooks, never quite master. It requires a certain amount of care and a great deal of dedication. If you are think... more...
