Cooking from Scratch

 

Cooking from scratch is a hands-on approach to eating. It involves doing the shopping, doing the preparation, and blending it all together into an edible dish. Sure, there are ways to cut corners and save time, but the end result is the same-complete control and palate satisfaction.

The main focus of the Cooking from Scratch section of Foodie Mama is to help foodie cooks make tasty, easy to prepare meals for families of all sizes. You will find product reviews, tips of the trade, and, of course, lots of recipes to help you cook from scratch.

cauliflower_soup.jpgI love to have soda bread with soups (especially cauliflower soup) but it is also great toasted in the morning and decorated with strawberry jam. This is one of the simplest bread recipes you'll ever find. It is high on ease and low on fuss.

turkish_delight_sm.jpgCooking meals for yourself and your family is a rewarding experience. It is like starting a new project every day and seeing it through to completion (everyone eats it up). It is both good for one's ego and for our task management skills. Today I realized why many people would avoid cooking from scratch.

lemonjuicer.jpgThere is something beautiful about the color and oval shape of lemons. Its physical beauty doesn't mesh with the sour flavour of a lemon on the tongue. But with the right amount sugar and flour just about anything can taste as good as it looks.

cauliflower_soup.jpgIf I had to make a list of vegetables that I like then cauliflower would be in the top ten list. But only, if it is baked or made into a soup. And it is the only way that I can get my husband to eat cauliflower. So if you have an anti-cauliflower person in your household I highly recommend you give this mildly cheesy recipe a try.
