"Cooking? What's that then? Dinner most nights is toast or crumpets 🤣" You can turn both of those ‘dishes’ into home-made pizzas with very little effort  | |||

"Cooking … great - baking and bread making relatively new at ( still v amateur/ won’t be on bake off for another 30 years likely ! ) " It’s just practice, the best tip I ever got was to keep it slightly wetter than it should be and work it with a bit of oil if too sticky, not flour. Works for baking as well | |||

And keep your hands wet. "I haven’t tried that. When I make bread there is literally more mixture on my hands than anywhere else its that sticky to start, I have learnt this is the best way , just persevere and eventually it will go silky smooth. Just got a resist the temptation to add flour | |||

"My husband makes the best pizzas. He's developed his dough recipe over a number of years, and it's lovely. He'll prove the dough anything from a few hours (for spur-of-the-moment ones) to a couple of days (cold proving in fridge) and makes the sauce from fresh, too. Having pizza again tonight. "That sounds great I love home-made pizza although what I often do is buy the 97p basic ones, Stick a load of ingredients, sprinkle with oregano , mozzarella, drizzle with olive oil , chilli flakes and turn it into something really special | |||

Keep an eye out for a little something called "Chili and Garlic Salt". It comes in a grinder bottle, and does for pizza exactly what MSG does for everything else!! | |||

I mean, some Tex-Mex stuff is pretty tasty… like chili.
The dish chili is based on, picadillo, is much nicer in my view. Full of veggies and flavour… accompanied with Mexican rice, it is part of my comfort food repertoire. ☺️ | |||

"I love to cook. And can cook most things. It’s definitely my love language. I can bake, but prefer not to as it tends to be too scientific… I love food and can talk about it for hours."
Me too , I love learning about ingredients on the markets , I now know casa from cinnamon and can tell fake saffron that’s been dyed red and spot a good tahini ! | |||

Why do we like it ? We enjoy trying new dishes from a whole range of diverse cultures.
.
We're also experimenting with trying new recipes to cut out carbs, or greatly reduce them.
.
Made some lemon tartlet like cakes (using almond flour) with jiggly lemon toppings that came out divinely. Low carb and very keto friendly. No butter either, so vegetarian friendly. (Not vegan friendly due to eggs however)

"Yeah it’s very similar to Hummus I just made both! Ingredients the sane jusr switch chickpeas for eggplants. Roast them in halves , scoop them out and drain off liquid, mix in all the stuff , I added a bit of cumin & smoked paprika to spice it up a bit , it’s so good with a Turkish grill & bread | |||
