Food Stop


I was told by my nephew to share my food blog in facebook, so here goes..

It all started sometime last year when I was watching Martha Stewart show on cable tv. Then it came to me, why not try something from my 'stock knowledge'? so i made this..

and the story behind this simple and yet so cute cupcakes was posted in jeepney.spaces.live.com, and now i will resurrect that long forgotten blog and consolidate all my food stuffs here, so brace yourselves... eat your heart out chefs, restos, wala akong palalampasin! hahahaha! kahit nasa kalye kokomentan ko! (translation: i wont miss a thing! hahaha! even streetfoods i will make a comment)

It all started from a simple pastillas de leche, then to polvoron, then i made a huge success in cupcakes.. and here's the story of that cupcake:

I was thinking of making a cake but my oven toaster wont do justice for the recipe so i made "mini's". I altered the recipe from watching Martha Stewart at Lifestyle channel in cable tv. I cant expose the details how i made this one because of my "secret machine" - my oven toaster. Yeap! You can do wonders with an oven toaster, just do some modifications in the recipe and keep a watchful eye..

and then i got tired of making cupcakes because as soon as am done cooking, they're all gone.. so i made cookies.. which turned out to fall in the same circumstance, cook 'em and they're gone!

A relative even thought that i was just buying Mrs. Fields Cookies! and heating them up! Shame!!!!


And so the next one from that old blog is this:

In Pursuit of the Best Pudding

This is my latest pursuit.... a bread pudding.
The first one was a hit due to its secret ingredient - nutmeg and cheese
The second one is also a hit, minus the nutmeg and the cheese.
Istead of Animal Milk, i put on SOY Milk is much tastier and healthier.
The Recipe:
20 pcs Pandesal (more or less)
2/3 cup secret ingredient
1 cup Soy Milk
1 tb vinegar
water
vanilla extract
lemon extract
cinnamon powder
The How:
Grease 5x8 rectangular pan, enough to fit an Oven Toaster,
yes, am using an oven toaster...
the one with a 15 minute timer? Yes that's it! Amazing huh?
Just keep an eye before it catches fire.. hehehe
Mix all ingredients in a bowl
and let stand in refrigerator for about 15 to 20 mins,
or until after your favorite tele-novela. Why that long?
Well its really up to you if you're not in a hurry so the milk can curdle...
this process will make the pudding more like that one made with eggs
(there are no eggs in this pudding, due to health reasons).
Set the Oven Toaster for 15 minutes and bake.
Turn around the pudding after 10 mins to evenly bake.
Watch for the burning stage...
if that happens, cover the top with foil.
If you think it's not yet done, it will rise slightly and dry,
then you nid to add more 5 minutes in the timer.
Let cool and serve. I like it cold so i put it on the ref and eat the next day.
It will stay in the ref for 5 days,
unless somebody will discover it and devour it in one sitting.

So there goes my first entry..

There's still more to come.. i'll just have to find the pictures and the stories behind them..
where did i stack them anyway?
