Uh Hello!!

Uh Hello!!!

I just feel like I need to have one online kitchen journal.. before I actually write them down on my offline journal. heh. 



I just bought this book from Big Bad Wolf booksale. It was a very good deal, I mean all of the books from Bid Bad Wolf were in a very good deal, so I grabbed one of this, and a lot of cookbooks. Yes, I mean a lot of cookbooks!!! 

This kitchen manual contains lots of interesting things like conversion of cups to ounce to grams for some ingredients, which I always need to refer to whenever I used American or British recipes. You see, American recipes used butter in cups and sticks where butters sold in Malaysia are mostly in 250 grams or 227 grams (8 ounces). I will always need to convert the butter amount from cups to gram. My baking started off with using cups for flour but since we had the digital weighing scale at home, I trusted the weighed flour more than cups measured, so sometimes I would like to see how one cup of flour weighed. 

There are a lot of other things included in this book as well, like chicken and beef blueprint, liquer substitution etc, and most importantly, there are recipe slots as well!! I've decided to put only the best recipes in here.. So this is going to be my masterpiece cookbook! Hehe.

Anyways, back to Big Bad Wolf, my mother bought quite a number of them too, and my sister as well. Oh no we really have lots of recipes to try out - from Mediterranean foods, Italian, French, Asian... and my current obsession currently is of breads... 



I'll post up some recipes and perhaps some self discovered tips (which might be wrong, but nevermind!) in the next posts.. Till we meet again!
