Food Choices #12.
Posted on March 28, 2009 by admin
1. Which kitchen gadget would you need for preparing meals for the family (except the usual stove, microwave, knives, etc) and why? I badly want the garlic chopper used by Chef Rosebud in Quickfire. I am ma-garlic, especially when cooking pasta, so a chopper would be a very big help. Plus that particular chopper is so small, cleaning up after will be easier compared when using a bigger gadget.
2. What is your easiest and fastest meal in terms of preparation? Care to share how you do it? I think chicken tinola is easy as it has few ingredients. I am so OC when washing vegetables and I spend so much time washing them, so I usually prefer viands with less ingredients.
3. Do you cook everyday? In batches? Please tell me your cooking schedule. I usually cook everyday. The viand is good for 2 meals. So if I cook in the morning, the food is good for lunch and dinner that day. If I cook in the afternoon, the food is good for dinner and lunch the following day. Same goes with our rice. Sometimes when I cook a big batch of adobo or adobo sa gata, I freeze them in batches and I just reheat it. For breakfast, sometimes I cook, usually fried egg, hams, hotdogs, pancit canton, champorado. But more often, Jollibee and McDo come to the rescue.
4. Please share a recipe you have done. I don’t have a recipe of my own. I just get them from books or the internet. Or maybe this Lemon Tuyo Pasta will do.
5. Any advice on which seasonings I should have at all times? I just use the usual salt and pepper. I do have a stock of dried basil but I usually prefer the fresh basil leaves for pasta.
