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.

On Food and Cooking for Beginners/Aspirators

I recently watched a 2011 Alton Brown interview with Google, at least that's what I think it was. I heard from him that nothing on the internet is hard set for food and cooking. Since I like food and cooking I thought I could come up with a blog that is all about food and cooking I thought of calling it Food and Cooking for Beginners now I'm thinking otherwise on the title. I simply wanted to come up with something for the aspiring people that are new to food and cooking and that's what I wanted to start off the blog about what is food and cooking defined in a more in depth way and beginning with the basics of foods and the simplest recipes.

I would like to do it but I don't know again if anyone is really reading any of thisl.
