Pancakes

I recently found out a simple recipe on pancakes that requires baking powder and I did manage to find it in the baking section. I also found yeast, I'm going to try my hands on pizza dough to see how the dough rises. But pancakes, I will write about my experience soon since I got all the ingredients. I would of done it today but I got some sausages and decided to have that instead. Good food good stuff.

On Eggs

The last post I added a label, egg, but it had nothing to do with eggs. This time I'll write down what I know about eggs. Eggs are the basis of all cooking at least that's the way I see it. To learn to cook you can start with an egg and figure out how you want it, scrambled, sunny side up, over easy. Just go crazy with eggs. I suppose it's one of those things that it's really hard to mess up. Remember also salt and pepper are the basis for all spices and seasoning.

I got a spice rack for a wedding gift and it does wonders. A spice I recommend to add a little kick to any dish is paprika, it works well with anything. Some herbs and spices are better whole and fresh while others are better dry and ground up. Paprika being one of the ones that is good dry and ground up. Pepper being one of the ones that is better freshly ground. As for salt, I always use sea salt, it gives a great taste and it's not as intense as regular salt.

But back to eggs. Yes eggs are the best way to start off on cooking. Recently I have been looking in to making fresh noodles, and it calls for, yes eggs, and flour, it seems simple. I got to figure out though how to do it on a better surface and what is the ratio. Since I buy eggs in bulk they are usually a little smaller than whole large eggs. But usually a recipe for noodles calls for 1 cup of flour to a 2 egg ratio for a single serving.

Let me know what other food you would like me to research.
