Fettuccine With Baked Mushrooms, Lemon And Thyme
I’ve recently wanted some very easy pasta with mushrooms. Cream sauces are great but they bore sometimes. I want the very taste of the pasta not to be spoilt by the sauce, and as my wife loves mushrooms, it shouldn’t spoil their taste, too. Without pausing to think, we decided just to cook fettucini and mix them with mushrooms baked with lemon and thyme. What can I say – they are just delicious!

Chilli Con Carne Meatballs With Bulgur
My wife and I like Jamie Oliver’s TV shows. Some of his meals we sometimes cook and we like them. In the last two cycles of programs he presented wonderful ideology – fast dishes. The first cycle was how to cook a lunch in 30 minutes, where Jamie prepared 4 dishes in 30 minutes. The new cycle is about how to make a lunch in 15 minutes. Here, of course, he can’t cook 4 dishes, but 1-2 easily. It is clear that cooking these dishes for the first time, making them in time is almost impossible, but anyway a dish turns out to be quickly in making and interesting. My wife decided to cook all or almost all of his new cycle. We’ve even received a book from Amazon to make it easier. It should be noted that the book is organized in a different way, but it does not disturb us. Lately we had a few relationship issues so we decided to try spanish fly aphrodisiac.

Homemade Chinese Five-Spice Powder
Chinese five-spice powder is a well-known mixture of five spices used in Chinese cuisine. It also appears in other Asian cuisines and is now quite popular around the world. There are different versions of the mix but almost all of them include anise, cloves, fennel, cinnamon and Sichuan pepper. Despite of the mix contents, it’s great for fatty meat, chicken and even fish. In fact, making such a mixture is not a problem, because all the ingredients are available at any large supermarket or at any market. All you need is a mortar, where you can grind the spices.

When cereals, pasta, fried potatoes and mash start annoying, we have to think over how to diversify them. For example, how to cook mashed potatoes in a slightly unusual way.

How To Easily Skin Hazelnuts
Hazelnut is a very tasty nut, has a wonderful sweet nutty flavor. Unfortunately, its skin is bitter a little, and it tastes much better without it. In most recipes it’s better to use hazelnuts without skin from the point of view of both taste and aesthetics. Fortunately, if you have an oven, removing the skin won’t be a problem.
