Hi. So I'm not like, a foodie, or whatever, but I do like food. The issue is that I hate to cook. There was one time when Spencer and I found a recipe that looked amazing so we went to the store and got all the ingredients, but when we came home and started trying to make it the first direction was to "score and blanch the tomatoes." We looked at each other for a moment before Spencer said, "so, mac and cheese?" I will know I have made it in the cooking world when I know what it means to score and blanch.
Until then, however, my goal with finding food on Pinterest has been finding things that are both easy and tasty. I now present to you my top five favorites.

Haha! Scoring means to make a little x with a knife through the skin of the tomato. It can be helpful if you are trying to remove the skins for like canned tomatoes or something. Blanching is used for canning tomatoes too, you boil them for a couple minutes and then put them in ice water.... after that the skin comes off really easy!
ReplyDeleteThese pinterest finds look yummy though!
Mmm...what is the link to the cajun chicken pasta? (Looks like the broccoli braid is linked to twice by accident.) What fun recipes.
ReplyDeleteWhoops! Thanks for catching that, it should be fixed now!
