WITH LOVE ALE.

Rainy days ... Soup

Today was a rainy day. I love rainy days, they always make me smile! I like to stay home and listen to classical music or himns, and cook while hearing to the rain hit the glass of the windows. I always want to eat something that makes me feel warm and happy, but today i wasnt sure about what to eat. After thinking alot, i decided to make a soup with my favorite vegetables! I heated it to a good temperature and it made me feel so cozy and comfortable!

I felt i needed to have something else, so i decided to make a quesadilla with cottage cheese. I cooked some of the cheese and added some salt and pepper. Which i love to do because I feel it gives it a different and better flavor to the cheese.
On a relaxed day like today, it was a simple and light food to make and enjoy

Let me share with u my soup, this is what u will need to make it:

2 cups chopped italian pumpking
1/2 cup corn kernel
1/2 peas
1/2 chopped carrots
pinch of salt and pepper
olive oil
epazote
--- for sauce ---
2 tomatoes
1 garlic clove (big)
1/4 of an onion (yellow or white)
*i used yellow
Mix all this in the blender and set aside (we will use it later)

1. in a tall pan fill it with water to the half , add one tsp of salt put in the stove and let it get warm .
(about the salt , you can check if you need more or less salt that is my advice but every tongue is different so well you decide how much to use, just try to dont use so much or the flavor of the vegetables will be lost and will taste all to salt)
2. now add the rest of the ingredients , pumpking , carrots, etc...
3. when everything is in the pan add the tomatoe sauce we made earlier .
4. cover the pan and let it boil .
now... just sit down and enjoy the soup :)

food storage

 

Hi my dear readers , today i want to show you my work ,i have start to work in our future food storage, i have found good deals in the store ! days ago i just found tomatoes really cheap 1 pound for 4 cents ! was great , they look so beautiful , shape , color and all they are great , so i decide to do this with them , i recomend to everyone of you , you can do it in home too for ur family , is good to have a provident living and this is part of it , and u can be saving alot of money.
Since i got my tomatoes i made tomatoe juice , i put it in jars (so when they get expensive i wont need to buy ,i can just find them in my food storage) the good part of all of this is that u just can do it with healthy food like vegetables and fruits , and forget about junk food ! start to do it !

making pizza !!

days ago i wanted to eat pizza ...usually i call to order one,but i wanted homemade pizza , i was pretty tired that night but i decided to make one !
I hope you can enjoy my recipe and tell me what you think about it :)
so lets start!
for this recepie you will need:
1 cup of warm water (105F)
3 1/2 cups of all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons of olive oil
2 teaspoons of honey
1 teaspoon of salt
1 teaspoon of yeast

Put warm water (80 to 110°F) into a bowl. Add salt and honey and mix with a spoon. Add yeast, mix and let it sit for about 10 minutes
Gradually add flour and olive oil and start mixing
When the mixture gets too heavy to mix, start kneading the dough with your hands.
Knead the dough until you have a smooth ball. If the dough cracks it is too dry. Add water bit by bit until if forms a nice coherent ball. If your doug feels more like batter, it is too wet and you need to add flour bit by bit. If you need to add water or flour, do it by small amounts.
Coat the dough with olive oil, place it in a large bowl and cover it with kitchen wrap or a grocery bag. Let the doug rise for about an hour at room temperature, then push it down again so it deflates. Let it sit for about another hour. If you want to use it the next day, put it in a refrigerator.
Put the dough on a lightly floured surface, put a bit of flour on top and make it into the shape of a pie by stretching it out from the center outwards. Use a rolling pin until the dough is about 1/4" thick. Punch some holes in the dough with a fork to let the air escape while the pizza is in the oven.
NOW THE BEST PART!!!
PUT YOUR FAVORITE PIZZA SAUCE AND PIZZA TOPPINGS! and
Bake the pizza in you oven at 400 - 450° F for about 20 to 25 minutes until the crust is light brown.
