Comes to Cooking Italians Pasta

Filed under: Buying, Chocolate, Coffee, Cook, Desserts, Drinking, Eating, Indian Recipes, Milk, Pickle, Recipes, Tea, Vegan, Vegetarian — fooddrinkrecepies @ 10:31 am

Thanks to the phone call, the spaghetti was a little softer than al dente, but it had not been dealt a mortal blow. I started eating-and thinking.” The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle Haruki Murakami

Haruki Murakami’s narrator is typical of most non-Italians when it comes to cooking pasta. They know that it ’should be’ cooked al dente, but they’re not going to lose a lot of sleep over it. Al dente is, according to – amongst other – Lidia Bastianich, the famous Italian media cook in America, one of the most difficult concepts in Italian cooking to get across. It is, though, one of the most fundamental.

Why do we say al dente?
There are a number of theories to this, but the most widely accepted and most sensible is simply that the pasta is tested, to see if it’s ready, by biting into it. It should not be uncooked, nor should it be soft – so there should be a slight resistance to the teeth – al dente in Italian.

But why should pasta be cooked al dente?
There are a number of good reasons, apart from simple tradition. Firstly, pasta nearly always interacts with a sauce, and when cooked al dente it ‘takes on’ the sauce more efficiently.

Preparing the Perfect Pastry

Filed under: Chocolate, Coffee, Cook, Cream, Drinking, Eating, Fruit, Indian Recipes, Juice, Milk, Recipes, Tea, Vegan, Vegetarian — fooddrinkrecepies @ 11:27 am

During the Medieval period someone may have discovered that the pastry on the bottom of the meat was fluffy and tasty and this may have led to the experimentation of mixing fats with the flour and water mix. From this, modern pastries were born.Indeed, pastries as we know them today only work because of the fats worked into the dough. These fats separate the layers of flour as the pastry cooks and dries making the pastry both tastier and crumblier.

If you then take this basic pastry and add an egg or an egg yolk then the pastry both becomes more resilient and also becomes richer in flavour. Then you can add spices, herbs and other flavourings to alter how the basic pastry tastes.You can also alter the characteristics of the pastry by using different fats. Butter tends to give the best flavour and lard gives the best crumbly texture (that’s why many cooks use a half butter, half lard mix). Margarine gives a smoother less flaky texture and a paler overall colour, which can be good for fruit pies. You can also make pastry with liquid oils, but these are hard to handle and need to be used immediately.

However, the true secret of making a good pastry is to use everything chilled (utensils as well as ingredients) so that the fats do not melt before they are baked (this way you get little bits of whole fats in the pastry and this improves both the flavour and the ‘crumbliness’. Then handle the dough as little as possible, to ensure the ingredients do not get too warm.

For making sheet pastries such as filo pastry, flaky pastry or croissant pastry then you will make a basic pastry mix, roll it out then place butter (or other fat) on top and roll it out before putting more butter on fat. This process is repeated several times, so that you get the layers of pastry separated by layers of fat. When the pastry cooks the fats help separates the layers so you get a puffed and brittle effect.

Filed under: Chocolate, Coffee, Cook, Cream, Drinking, Eating, Fruit, Indian Recipes, Juice, Milk, Nonvegetarian, Recipes, Tea, Vegan, Vegetarian — fooddrinkrecepies @ 7:22 am

Many of us enjoy summer barbeques. For some, this event is a yearly summer tradition where the entire family gets together. However, an important thing to remember during these particular events is that majority of the foods we consume are laden with calories and unwanted fats. So what can you do in order to make the next backyard barbecue a low calorie fest?

Let’s start with appetizers. At a regular calorific barbecue, some of the items we may see on the picnic table include salty chips, creamy dips, and fried finger foods. Although all of these snacks are delicious, they can sure help you pack on the pounds. So instead of these greasy entrees try to cut up some fresh veggies or create your own garden fresh salsa or low calorie dips. Simply make your dip with low calorie ingredients and opt for baked chips instead of their greasy counterparts. As for the grill part of the meal, most popular items include hamburgers, fatty sausages, and steaks. All of these choices go completely against a slim waist. So what can you place on the grill so that you don’t feel guilty about abandoning your diet? Some great alternatives include skinless chicken breast, fresh fish, pork tenderloin and fresh veggies. Your meal will still be delicious but your calorie intake will be cut in half.

Dessert is one of the most exciting parts of a barbecue, especially for the kids. However, your kids have a higher chance of burning off those calories during a barbecue. Some great alternatives for those of us with a slower metabolism include watermelon wedges, chilled fruit medley or a low calorie gelatin snack. Who knows, maybe even the kids will love a cool watermelon wedge on a hot summer day. These are just a few ideas towards a low calorie barbecue.
