SAlm..miss

i've read about the process of making strawberry jam ,which is my favourite... for Step 1 - Pick the berries! (or buy them already picked)..then,we need 6 cups of mushed strawberries...jam can only be made in rather small amount,or the jam won't "set" (jell, thicken).After that,wash the fruit in plain cold water...the next step,just mush them up a bit - not completely crushed, but mostly...then,measure the amount of sugar needed to pour into mushed strawberries..For most fruit; like berries, with the low sugar pectin, you'll need 4 cups of sugar..Next,mix the berries with the pectin and cook to a full boil..Pectin, which occurs naturally in fruit, is what makes the jam "set" or thicken...after that,add the remaining sugar and bring to a boil again for 1 minute..the last step is,jell thickness testing..take a half spoonful of the mix and let it cool to room temperature on the spoon..okay,the jam is ready..don't forget to try it at home...

YAP CHEE KIEN (AA09025) A12

Greetings everyone,

Well people have u wonder how your favourite and most adorable food, cheese is made. Yup I come across an article about the process of making cheese from the following link http://park.org/Netherlands/pavilions/food_and_markets/cheese/making2.html.

Well a simplify version of steps in making a cheese as followed:

Step 1: in order to curdle the
milk, rennet and a coagulant. These are lactic bacteria which convert lactose (milk sugar) into lactic acid.

Step 2: Once curdling is completed, the mil-mass is cut to enable the whey discharges easily. After cutting the milk-mass, part of the whey is drained and warm water is added to it. When the curd is sufficiently solid, it is then transferred to moulds and the cheese is pressed into its final shape.

Step 3: During and after the moulding, the process of ‘souring’ within the cheese continues. If the chess is in creamery condition it remains in the mould for an additional hour or more.

Step 4: Then the cheese is submerged in a brine bath. This brine bath is the process of flavouring the cheese with salts. It also inhibits the growth of undesirable bacteria which can also affect the flavour.

Step 5: During the maturing, the cheeses are provided at regular intervals with a thin coat of plastic which help to protect the rind against the formation of mould.

These are the steps in making a cheese, it might seem simple but it is way beyond complicated in producing the BEST CHEESE IN THE WORLD. I am so much appreciated that I could taste such a food in my daily life especially when come to macaroni or pizza. Without cheese, these foods seem incomplete to me. That’s about it about process of making cheese. Till then, see yea people!!!

u'll know how to make soap by yourself?
follow the step below..

1. Suit up in safety goggles, gloves and long sleeves.

2. Add the lye to the water. Stir well taking precautions to not breathe in the fumes. Set the mixture to the side and allow it to cool to approximately 110F. You can put the lye water mixture outside if you are not in a well ventilated area.

3. Add all your oils together and melt. Allow them to cool to approximately 110F, or within 5 degrees of the lye water.

4. Add the lye water mixture to the melted oils, carefully. Stir vigorously until trace occurs. Trace looks like a thin pudding. A stick blender will help speed trace along. If you are stirring by hand, these recipes may take up to an hour to trace.

5. Pour your traced soap mixture into your molds. Pop out after 3 to 5 days and allow to sit for a full 4 to 6 weeks to cure and finish the saponification process.

try it!!

Actually I am very like to eat ice-cream especially chocolate ice-cream during this hot wheather.First of all,the ingredients we should prepare is:
1)2 oz unsweetened chocolate
2)1/3 cup unsweetened powder
3)1 1/2 cup milk
4)2 large eggs
5)1 cup sugar
6)1 cup whipping cream
7)1 tin vanilla extract

This is the process to make chocolate ice-cream:
1)Melt the sweetened chocolate on the top of a double boiler over hot but not boiling water.Gradually whisk in cocoa and heat,stirring constantly,until smooth.(The chocolate may "seize" or clump together.Don't worry,the milk wil dissolve it)Whisk in the milk,a little at a time,and heat until completely blended.Remove from the heat and let cool.

2)Whisk the eggs in a mixing bowl until light and fluffy about 1 to 2 minutes.Whisk in the sugar,a little at a time,then continue whisking until completely blended about 1 minutes more.Pour in the cream and vanilla and whisk to blend.

3)Pour the chocolate mixture into the cream mixture and blend.Cover and refrigerate until cold about 1 to 2 hours just depending on yours refrigerator.

Although making the chocolate ice-cream is not easy but you can try to do it yourself when free then hope you can enjoy the process.

everybody loves to eat chicken soup. its taste so delicious and tasty. There can be a lot of variation in chicken soup recipes (noodles, rice, to cream or not to cream, vegetable choices, but the heart of any chicken soup worth its salt is a real chicken stock — not a bouillon cube, not a can of broth — a real homemade chicken stock. Make one by putting 5 pounds or so of chicken pieces in a stock pot with enough cold water to cover. Bring it to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer it. Skim it periodically until no impurities remain, a half-hour or so. Then add a coarsely chopped onion, a carrot and a celery stick, as well as a bouquet garni (a bay leaf, some parsley sprigs and a little fresh or a teaspoon of dried thyme tied up in a bit of cheesecloth). Simmer it all for three hours, adding enough water to keep everything below the surface. Strain it into a clean pot, let it cool, then refrigerate it. Remove the fat that congeals on the surface before using the stock.

Now with this stock, you should be able to make the chicken soup of your dreams, whether that includes carrots or noodles or whatever.
so, good luck!

I've read about the process of making sushi in the internet.The URL for this article is http://makemysushi.com/how_to_make_sushi.html

Firstly, we must cut the "The rough side of the nori. Nori is edible seaweed.

Get about a handful of rice to a ball of rice. Make sure your hand is wet as it is sticky.

Put the rice ball in the middle of the nori sheet, and spreading it equally on the nori,this will form a layer of rice covering almost the entire sheet.

Next, we will have to place a slice of fish on the edge of the nori, along with 1-3 pre-cut slices of vegetables..

After that,take the closer edge of the rolling mat,form a rectangular shaped hill and we have to tighten it from above.

We have to continue rolling in the rectangular hill steps, make sure it is tight with every move until we have reach the end of the nori.

Then, we have to cut it to form sushi rolls.

So,we have finish it.
