cathyy Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 Today I will be making lasagne, using the soft cheese I get from draining my homemade yogurt instead of ricotta. It's a very good substitute. I will have with it buttered spinach, a cabbage salad, and some rye bread. Dessert will be an apple. Need to make more yogurt today, and baking a loaf of white bread looks inevitable. I also want to start soaking some beans for cooking tomorrow. That's on top of two or three loads of laundry. Why am I still sitting in front of my computer with so much to do?

Daren Posted June 7, 2009 Share Posted June 7, 2009 Well today it'll be Texas style chili, sourdough rye and a nice green salad. Yum! I'm very curious about making my own yogurt, cathyy. Maybe if you find the time in your busy day, you could share a few tips for a beginner. BTW, lasagna is my all-time-favorite food! Yum! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The salmon steaks were THB 660/kg at Tops Central Chidlom Food Hall. Two medium steaks for the adults and 1 small one for our daughter cost THB 360. I originally went looking for fillets (THB 990/kg) But they were a little grey and curling at the edges. Yuk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gippy Posted June 8, 2009 Share Posted June 8, 2009 I'm very curious about making my own yogurt, cathyy. Maybe if you find the time in your busy day, you could share a few tips for a beginner. I'm not cathy but I make yoghurt at home all the time as well. I follow a recipe I got from an Indian cookbook by Mader Jaffrey. The first step is to go and buy a small tub of plain yogurt and some milk. For each 1.5 pints of milk you need 2 tablespoons of yoghurt. Put the milk in a pot and bring to the boil, as soon as it starts to rise turn the heat to very low and simmer for one minute. Switch off the heat and let the milk cool to 38-43C. Put the yoghurt into a non-metallic bowl. Beat with a whisk until creamy, start to add the milk a tablespoon at a time and whisk in. After a few tablespoons have been added you can pour the rest in faster, keep beating as you pour. Cover the bowl with cling film and leave for about 8 hours or until it has set. This method has always worked for me, it's hot enough here in Bangkok not to require any fancy yoghurt making machines. To make the next batch just use the last few tablespoons of your previous batch. I like it with some home made jam stirred in, yum! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bkkjames Posted June 8, 2009 Share Posted June 8, 2009 yesterday bbq 14 oz rib eyes (nice marbling) along with 6 imported (large size) sea scallops. Marinated the scallops for 6 hours in carribean seafood marinade before grilling. served on a bed of sprouts and topped off with olive oil, sea salt and splash of fresh lime steaks grilled medium rare with only fresh black pepper and seasalt for seasoning. with the newborn taking up much of our time, only get one or two chances a week to get creative so try to make the most of it. tonight back to the quick and easy I am afraid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bonobo Posted June 11, 2009 Share Posted June 11, 2009 Last night: Peach/mango smoothie Lobster bisque with sherry Mashed potatoes Mushrooms and garlic bone marrow Wagyu Flatiron steak I had this at the Vertigo restaurant on top of the Banyon Tree. The steak was good, but the rest merely adequate. Luckily, my dinner partner gets a 50% discount as I think the meal was not worth the listed price.
