So, the first post in my Notebook. :]
Hello and Welcome to anyone who is reading or planing to read.
Some words about me and this [Notebook] - as I'll be calling it.
I'm a girl from Latvia, Riga. And I love to cook, mostly sweets and pastry. Can't get rid of my sweet tooth no matter what I do. And why get rid of it, if I really enjoy it? (Yeah, too many sweets and an office job can lead to excess weight problems, I know... So I'm taking it slow one recipe at a time.) As I don't have much free time, my cooking posts won't come often and are very simple. So I'm planning to use this space as a digital Notebook with the recipes I tried and liked. I have a paper notebook as well, but I tend to loose notes if I use paper. -_- And besides it's good not to be greedy and share.
Oh, and as I'm from Europe, I'll be mostly using metrics like kilos, grams, tablespoons and teaspoons, cups, liters (no ounces etc).
Temperature in is C - Celsius
Kilogram = kg
Gram = g
Liter = l
Tablespoon = tbsp
Teaspoon = tsp
Cup = cup or c
(I usually use standard 250 ml cups/mugs, but if the recipe is 1 to 1 cup, then you can use any cup you have, but be sure to check the consistency and taste when you're done mixing.)
Very simple. If there are any problems with converting - just ask. All the rest will come in words any of us can understand with ease.
Putting it short, I'll be posting:
- Different tasty recipes, all checked and approved by me in my kitchen.
- Photos of what I get as a result. (I hope my camera loves me and there will be pictures and not just simply bland text.)
- Tips and advice on making cooking life easier.
- Step-by-step tutorials with photos.
- Any other weird ideas that come to my mind along the way.
All food made from very simple ingredients you can probably get anywhere, my fridge is not empty only thanks to the rest of the family, so the simplicity rules.
Disclaimer: All photos here belong to me unless stated differently. The original recipes belong to original authors (like my granny or the aunt from next door), the ones here are my own interpretation.
