Create with your hands
Create with your hands
Your daily bread should be nourishing and delicious, it should be wholesome and exciting, but most of all, easy and fun to make. The way I cook from scratch food, it’s easy and quick because as much as I love cooking, I don’t want to be cooking all day.
I love the moment you hold your produce in your hands and imagine all the dishes you can create from it. If you’ve been cooking from scratch food for long enough, you develop a sixth sense for knowing when something is ready. I often find myself already walking towards the oven right before the bell goes off without even realising. I’ve always relied heavily on my instinct while cooking, that is until my husband got interested in learning how to cook. He preferred to have detailed recipes, so I started to write down all the recipes for my dishes. Those same recipes I now want to share with more people.
So let’s create some delicious food together.
The perfect chicken enchilada recipe! That is not only more authentic than boxed mixes but also far more delicious. I will show you how to make your own enchiladas completely from scratch, which is far easier than you might think. And it’s a good thing that they are so easy to make since my family keeps asking me to make them again.
These wheat tortillas are perfect if you need to whip something up quick for lunch or dinner. And they are delicious filled with sauces, salads, spreads, and really any kind of filling. You can make them completely from scratch in just 15 minutes and they are so easy that you will wonder why you ever even bought them.
Most of us are aware of some of the health benefits of drinking our cup of tea. But did you know that you could increase those benefits by drinking loose leaf tea instead of teabags? Not to mention the chemicals that your teabags might contain.
Who doesn’t love a bowl of steaming broth filled with delicious noodles and topped with delicious eggs, veggies, and chashu. It is the ultimate comfort food, that with its gelatine-rich broth is healthy to boot. And ramen noodles are easier to make at home than you would think.
So why not give it a try?
If you’re anything like me, you like to have a nice savoury snack while watching your favourite film. And all three of these cracker variations are perfect quick snacks to whip up while your partner finds a good film to watch.
The Irish are famous for their potatoes, this mainly due to the great hunger but still. And I definitely love myself some good potatoes, whether they’re boiled, fried, or roasted. But one of my favourite ways to eat potatoes is in soups. The humble potato who is so good at making oneself feel warm and comforted is the perfect ingredient for a soup, which tends to have the same effect.
This date bread recipe is quick and easy to make. And what can be better than whipping up some easy date bread and enjoying it alongside a nice cup of tea? Slather on some delicious creamy butter on your slice of date bread and sit back.
French toast is the perfect breakfast dish for a luxurious morning meal. But no one can enjoy their morning in peace while slaving over a stove. So this recipe is baked in the oven and prepared the night before. That way you can feel relaxed and savour your french toast.
During the cold winter evenings, a hearty rustic beef stew is precisely what you need. It will not just warm your body but also be a comfort to your soul. The beef is deliciously succulent and rich, which is complemented by the sweetness of the carrots.
Bread. Steaming hot from the oven slathered with butter and drizzled with honey. Nothing tastes quite as good as that. I love making my own bread at home, knowing that my creation feeds my family. And after years of recipe trials, I finally found my golden combination of flour, water and yeast.
