Cheating with Food
Here at Enigin we enjoy our food! I enjoy cooking at home as well as eating out. Bot definately have their highlights.
I love the feeling of going out for something to eat, even if it is simply tapas, or a nice meal. It is exciting to be out in a bustling restaurant, enjoying a glass of wine and a well cooked pleasant meal.
But I also enjoy cooking in my own kitchen. Coming up with something delicious and different. Trying out new and interesting recipes and meals.
But still it is sometimes difficult to find new and different things to do. And then there can be the cost. You find a lovely recipe you’d like to try but then find you need all these random ingredients. Which are usually “stock cuoboard” ingredients but you only have in your “stock” if you already use them on a regular basis. Things such as rice vinegar, pine nuts, white wine vinegar, sesame oil. And to then go out and buy these items for one meal, is not cheap!
But what about cheating? There is a recipe book by one famous british cook which shows us how to cheat with food. It uses new and interesting recipes but with cheap and easy alternatives which you are more likely to have in stock.
It is a great way of keeping peoples interest in cooking at home and making it easier for them. So I am off now to cheat with my dinner, and hopefully enjoy a delicious and interesting meal.
