SOURDOUGH STARTER.......My "pet"

I have a very special ”pet” in the fridges. I have had it since August last year. I only have to feet it once in a while and it gives me the best tasty real bread ever…..it is my sourdough starter.

Did you know that you don’t have to buy yeast from the shop; you can make your own. You don’t even need any special equipment. There is yeast spores every where.

You just have to mix 1 cup of plain four, 1 cup of rye four and 2 cups of water. Mix it well and leave it covered on your kitchen bench until it smell sour and it starts to ferment.

It will take around 48 hours.

Here is my “pet”…J….and what I just made by using it…REAL BREAD

EASY DINNER

GOOD EVENING…J 

Didn’t feel like making the big dinner tonight and made these in just 10 minutes.

I already had the buns in the freezer. They tasted divine with a good simple green salad.

HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND

“Healthy Carrot Cupcakes”

My kids love some treats in their lunchbox but I refuse to give them “pre-packed” snakes. So during the weekend I made this “Healthy Carrot Cupcakes” and stored them in the freezer. That way it is easy to put one in the kid’s lunch box every morning…..

QUALITY FOOD

I refuse to eat poor quality food. I rather eat less and well.  

In our family we eat a lot of ham – my husband and 2 daughters have it every morning on their omelettes, we all have it for lunch and I often make ham and pineapple pizza. Anyhow, I find it very difficult to get quality sliced ham for less than $20 per kilo, and for me, that’s just too expensive. I therefore decided to “invest” in a meat slicer machine and now buy good quality ham for less than $13 per kilo and slice it myself.

Chocolate cake….like brownies

My kids and husband love brownies but I refuse to make them. They are just too “fatty”… and I end up eating some myself. 

Anyhow, then I came up with this recipe.

They look like brownies, they taste like brownies, but… with less butter and no chocolate.
