I'm a big fan of eating, cooking and baking. *smacks lips* I love good food as much as the next person, but I'm not all too adventurous when it comes to trying out new food. Anything raw? Nope. Anything spicy? Nope. Hubby says my favourite phrase at restaurants is "No chilli or pepper please"....=)
I only started cooking and baking when I was in university. Previously, all I did was to sit on the kitchen table watching my mum bake. Yup, my mum bakes...and really well too. Honestly, this is an unbiased statement...everyone who tries her cakes and pies say the same thing!
Hubby's not a bad cook too, though he now claims that he has forgotten how to cook even though he used to make a mean black pepper pork for me back in uni! Methinks he's just lazy now...*grin*. His signature dish is 'tau eu bak', ie. streaky pork in black soya sauce. Absolutely yummy. And he cooks a real good American breakfast too...bacon, sausages and eggs sunny side up. And fried rice. His fried rice is definitely better than mine! =)
As for myself, I can honestly say that I like baking more than cooking. There's just something about measuring out the ingredients, folding in the flour in just the right way and watching the cake rise...it gives me a bigger sense of achievement than cooking.
Originally, I planned to put the recipes that I've tried out into this website. After giving it some thought, I've decided to create another site just for cooking and stuff...=)
Oh...there IS one teeny tiny thing that I hate about cooking and baking...washing up! So in that sense, eating out is better!
