What's cooking?

Yeah, I enjoy cooking. It’s definitely a different mood from trading. haha

Plus, once you get comfortable cooking, you can make almost anything you can think of!

Mmmmm. Have you made it before? I’ve never made it. Actually, I’ve never even had it. I bought a small set, and never got around to using it. I wonder what kind of cheese is best. Cheddar?

I actually first tasted it in Switzerland so I guess it was the real thing. I think it’s Emmental and Gruyere cheeses, plus white wine. Maybe some seasoning. Can’t remember what.

Its a great sharing meal. The custom was apparently that if you let your bread piece fall off your thin metal fork into the pot, you had to buy a round of drinks.

Or maybe that’s just what they told the dumb English guy…

Baked chicken breast.

Can get it done in about 30 min. It’s about the only thing I “cook” other than eggs and crepes…

So delicious with the paprika. I’ll grab a giant family pack at Costco and make 9 pieces at once. So it can last over a week.

Try it!

Yeah, chicken can be pretty easy. Strange how simple ingredients can taste so good. And I’ve totally forgotten about paprika. Thanks for the reminder!

Mmmmm chicken!!

That sounds really good! I don’t know why I thought it was just a tub of cheddar cheese. haha
I guess there’s a lot more to it than I realized.

It’s a great way to share a meal!

Ooh this is my go-to chikpea recipe:

Super easy to make and v healthy. Just requires spinach which can be pricey. You can eat this one with bread or rice or a side of chicken - maybe the paprika one will go well with this lol

Mmmmmm. Looks good! Over garlic bread sounds delicious! Do you have a preference? Pasta, couscous, or garlic bread?

Probably garlic bread. As long as it’s not sourdough! I love sourdough but it does something to my jaw. A clicking noise happens lol and freaks me out so no sourdough anything for me!

You’re right! I bought a cucumber and starting adding it my sandwiches (I eat a lot of sandwiches, haha), and it really does change the texture completely. They’re so crunchy and refreshing!

I was watching a cooking show and the guy was making…well, they looked like spring rolls. Like chinese gyoza, but with rice paper, and bigger. He had a round pot with a cloth across the top, and he ladled a type of sluree onto the top, then after a couple minutes he put the filling and closed the spring roll thing.

I’ve never seen anything like that before. Now, I’m curious about how rice paper is made.

The only rice paper I’ve seen is the kind with the impression of bamboo mesh. I never thought about the different ways to make rice paper.

I don’t eat fast food often, but when I do, I really enjoy it. Last month, I went to Taco Bell.

Oh man, it was delicious! I ate myself sick! haha I was thinking of going back this month, but instead I wanna try something else. But I will surely be returning to Taco Bell.

A few months ago I went to Burger King. It’s good, but Taco Bell was better. I can’t wait!

I wonder if that tastes like the vegetable spring roll from Vietnamese restaurants?

You know, I bet it does. I think there are many similarities between SE Asian countries. Countries that are so close, many things have been shared and passed along. Chop sticks, sticky rice, gyoza, etc. I’m sure they share the same love for air conditioners!

How was it? To be honest, I’m not sure if I’ve ever had Chick Fila! Maybe once a long time ago…

Tobacco or…TOBACCO PASTA!!!

I can see the commercial already. ¨Tired of smoking the same old boring tobacco? Well, now you EAT it!¨

@dushimes Just imagine cigarettes being replaced with this pasta, I’m already imagining a group of chain smokers standing in one dark corner of a building’s gallery and eating this pasta. That sight would be hilarious :joy: :joy:

This looks good!

I suppose each southeast Asian country has a different version of this kind of dessert. It’s sticky rice cooked in a banana leaf. It makes you wonder who was the first person to come up with this. People must have thought he was nuts until they tried it.

It’s shaped like a triangle. How do you say “no” to food shaped like a triangle??

Wow, just found this post, my favourite one, :star_struck:
I love cooking and I love a big kitchen, :laughing: :laughing:
I just made this cake a few days ago. In my original country, it’s made on Lunar New Year.

The read one was made from sweet rice, banana and red bean.
The yellow one was made with sweet rice, mung bean, pork meat, salted duck egg.
