Guinness Chips Crisps

Guinness Chips

Tagged With: Snacks

  Chips (aka crisps in the UK and Ireland) are really unhealthy. You know what that means. That means, when you do them, you gotta do them right, see? Which means the chips have to be worth it. And Lord liftin’, these be worth it. These Guinness Potato Chips are hand-crafted; each bag even indicates…

Skinny French Bread

Skinny French Bread (Pain Epi / Wheat stalk bread)

Tagged With: Bread

  This bread is mind-blowingly delicious and dead easy to make.  You let the bread machine mix up a batch of dough, and store the dough for up to 14 days in the fridge in a tupperware container. Then, on the days when you want some bread, you take a small portion of the dough,…

Two level microwave cooking

Two-level microwave oven cooking

Tagged With: Microwave

Over the years, I had found myself staring at the empty vertical space inside a microwave oven, and often wishing that somehow a second dish or plate could be making use of that wasted upper space… say, oatmeal happening below while bacon is cooking above. Or, heating up two plates of food at once. I’d…

Hunting for a new microwave

Tagged With: Microwave

  The most recent microwave oven died two weeks ago. That officially made it three microwaves that I’ve gone through. Microwave No. (1), was a hand-me-down in the early 1990s. It was a big ole Panasonic dating from the mid 1980s — somewhere between 1.6 and 2 ish cubic feet (45 to 56 L), I’d…

Maggi

Maggi

Tagged With: Sauces

  My new favourite best friend in the kitchen as of 2013 is Maggi. I had researched it and experimented with it briefly back in 2010 when I was writing my article on Maggi for cooksinfo.com, but after that the bottle languished on a cool shelf in the basement pantry. We get into such ruts…

Coconut Milk Powder

Coconut Milk Instant Powder

Tagged With: Asian Food

  As a cook, there’s four things about coconut milk. Makes a fabulous base for gorgeous curries and other sauces; Can be more fattening than double cream; You never have it around when you want it; There’s always an opened half-can of it way past best-by at the back of the fridge that you didn’t…

Weight Watchers Hot Chocolate

Weight Watchers Hot Chocolate

Tagged With: Chocolate, Treats, Weight Watchers

  Weight Watchers ®Hot Chocolate drink is definitely one of this winter’s top finds for me. It is probably the best instant hot chocolate drink mix I’ve tasted, ever. The combination of a rich, thick texture and dark chocolate taste makes it like drinking a melted chocolate bar. Tasting sugar rather than chocolate has always…

Nutricook Pressure Cookers

Pressure Cooking Convert

Tagged With: Pressure Cooking

  By the standards of the rest of the world, I’m very late to the pressure cooking party. By North American standards, the party ain’t even started yet. Prior to the Second World War, pressure cooking had a full head of steam in gaining popularity in North America. Production of the pots had to be…

Weight Watchers Jams

Weight Watchers Jams

Tagged With: Treats, Weight Watchers

  I’m not the world’s biggest jam eater, but I have always loved my marmalade (which is not jam, of course, harumph), and a dollop of jam on top a bowl of yoghurt turns it into a dessert. I also often reach for a pot of jam when I need to bake something in a…

Marks & Spencer Shortbread

Marks & Sparks Shortbread

Tagged With: Christmas, Desserts, Treats

Christmas 2013 is the second Christmas I’ve enjoyed these shortbreads from Marks & Spencer.  They are hands down perhaps the best shortbread I’ve had. Not sweet at all, really rich and buttery, and with that perfect crumbly, “sandy” texture that good shortbread must have. (Not sure exactly what shortbread is? ) You’ll notice I’ve been…
