I'm from a long line of chefs and our cuisine have always been a place for us to express your creativity. Both men and women cooks in my family, and often teased each other that whoever is the best cook (without a doubt, it was my mother). My brother had a cooking show on local network and years of family Bar-B-Que recipe is still one of our favorites. However, I am the only one who has this "secret recipe" as my mother has entrusted him to me. My father, grandfather, my mother and my grandmother each had a different Bar-B-Que recipe, but my mother who was a favorite for family picnics and gatherings of the church. I inherited my family's love of culinary adventure, but not quite as much talent!
So, you know of any new gadget or something comes on the market that will send me into the kitchen, my husband knows that I'm going to get I have several favorite gadgets, although -. As my slow cooker, which is great to have dinner ready, if we are going to be gone for the day, and food processor. Those things just can not do without, when it comes to simply, quickly prepare a large meal.
is the first slow cooker, and originally known as a crock-pot, has been around since the early 1970s. By 1991, slow cooker has generated over $ 30 billion in sales. Believe it or not, I still have my mother bought the original then. He has participated in many Sunday roast dinner with all the trimmings. Slow cooking made the toughest cuts of meat falling-off-the-bone-tender, adding flavor vegetable juices loncu.Spor stoves were not very attractive then, and evolved over the years. My mother, the famous chicken and dumplings are cooked in the old slow cooker and it's eating it in every church dinner on request to all!
We've since upgraded to a larger slow cooker with lid locks and handles. My husband's favorite slow-cooked roast dinner with potatoes, carrots and gravy. Mine is a chicken dish. In the morning I put two skinless chicken breasts in slow cooker, add a cup of rice, water, cooking water (amount depends on the type of rice you use - white, brown or basmati - our favorite), and add a jar of seeds of change Tikka Masala curry sauce on top to cook all day and it's ready to go we got home from work. chicken and rice absorbs all the flavors and it was delicious! Serve with a tossed salad and you have a completely healthy and tasty meal!
I could not begin to tell you that my mother, her chicken and dumplings. We could never duplicate that recipe. It is just that special touch of love and apparently, the secret to her amazing dumplings. The great thing is that you can cook just about anything from meat dishes, to pasta, dessert and bread. It also saves on electricity and keeps the summer heat of the kitchen because they do not need to turn the oven to cook for several hours. And believe me, they live in warm, humid climate like we do, it is worthwhile in itself!
