I Hope Your Happy Now - Elvis Costello

Hey The main problem with the shelf life of desserts isn't them going off, its with them going stale. The reason there's so much extra crap in store bought things is to keep them moist and fresh tasting. Cream, fruit etc will definitely spoil early but muffins, cakes, brownies, pastry etc will...

Hey Super thin beef?? Sweet! Gotta think fast cooking, flash frying, deep frying etc... Works for asian wok cooking, beef salads, in wraps/rolls/sandwiches/kebabs. Why not in a stroganoff, curry, pho, broth??? Make your sauce and then add your meat last minute for perfect cooking. Depending on...

Come Together - The Beatles

Hey Beautiful recipe! I really love the idea of honey and goats cheese with the onions. Lovely combination. The weather's cooling down rapidly here in Australia and a lovely onion soup seems just the thing to warm me and the good wife up. Great recipe.

Hey Anyone make their own bread?? The restaurant I work for is opening a bakery and I'm really keen to get down and learn about baking. I have a basic knowledge of yeast breads and starter based breads but I can't wait to learn how to make beautiful consistent loaves. Does anyone out there...

Rollmops are one of my favourite thing! Do you pickle your own fish???

Hey Thanks Chief! I didn't explain that too well, as in all Asian food, SE Asian is all about balance. The stink factor is important, coming from dried shrimp, shrimp paste, fish sauce, stocks etc but that's balanced out by the floral fragrant flavours like lemongrass and kaffir lime. One...

Hey I've been eating as much Japanese food as I can get my hands on lately, what's everyone's favourite??? Ramen? Udon? Bento? Teriyaki? :)

Fish sauce in south East Asian cookin is essentially salt and stink factor. Two very important things in SEA seasoning, a replacement would probably mean lookin at vego salts like soy and stinky things like black or yellow fermented beans, won't be the same (fish sauce and shrimp paste being two...

Hey Not necessarily, more important than airtight is sanitary, sterilized containers, super clean pots and utensils and using tongs to grab them out, a little bit of bacteria can taint a whole big batch. Airtight can just mean baking paper or plastic wrap laid over the top of the liquor as...

A whole nation of beautiful food was built on Manteca. Pork fat is the best. Scrambled eggs on pork fat toast. A recipe that will melt any pork admirer. :)
