mga luto ko

munting aklatan ng mga lutuin na nalaman, natutunan at minana ko sa lola orang ko, sa nanay ko, tiyahin, tiyuhin, mga kapatid, mga pinsan, mga kaibigan, at iba pa na hindi nagdamot ng kaalaman nila sa pagluluto ng kahit na anu-ano lang. i-share ko rin sa inyo, malay niyo magustuhan niyo version ko at version nila! paunawa lang po na di ako kasing-galing ng lola ko o ng nanay ko magluto - minsan tyamba lang! pero masarap naman (daw) ang kinalalabasan... :)

depression therapy - BAKING!!!


i got up feeling low .. depression eating me up ... slowly - i could feel it .. i got to do something to shake it off :o and what i did? do my own therapy .. either cooking, baking or washing .... was thinking of making baked mac ... but i don't have the (full) ingredients. eyeing the 2 pieces of large ripe banana atop the microwave - i decided to whip up a batch of muffins instead of the butterscotch that i was thinking of trying out.

using the basic muffin recipe from
group recipe, and after adding the wet ingredients with the mashed bananas, i divided the batter into two and added nuts to the first half and choco chips to the other half. .... the batter yielded 14 pcs. i remembered to use the ice-cream scoop, and glad that i am getting used to it :D ... my muffins are some kinda 'even' in size and guess what? they have nice domes!!!!




though i must admit that few pieces of the batch are slightly browned - hehehe - esp. the two extra muffin that i placed in the aluminum cups - so anemic in color! ahahahah...

i read that baking/cooking time is affected with the color of the pans used .. hmm should read that thing again! nonetheless - my muffins are 'still' .... yummylicious ....

i had one ( ok...ok .. i had two!!! one of each flavor!!!) :D .. with a nice cup of coffee ... no, not the latte - just plain coffee with milk .... and with both my feet on the cushion ... munching on the muffins .... thinking of the butterscotch recipe ....... heheheheheh

and you know what happened next!? :0
