Cooking and eating doesn’t have to be common and boring; not to me. I adore to savor each bite, to satisfy my palate with each bit. French food does that to me.
Enjoy the following recipe:
THESE ARE QUAIL EGGS
Chive Blini with Creme Fraiche, Quail Eggs, and Tarragon
Bite-size blini are topped with a dollop of rich creme fraiche, diminutive quail eggs, and brilliant trout roe.
Delicious to the palate, exotic to the eye and wonderful to the smell. This steak is one of my favorites in Flower Mound, TX.
Bon Appetite!
If there are two things I love about food Brazil style, they are steak and cheese bread (Pao de Queijo).
There is something about Brazilian Steak; it’s meaty, tender, juicy, oozing with right amount of food, and perfectly grilled and charred. It’s so delicious!
Cauliflower plant is the edible vegetable part that is called ‘Head’ or ‘Curd’. Botanically this curd is a white ‘inflorescence meristem’. This means that it is not a fully formed flower, it is a tissue which is supposed to form flowers. Cauliflower curd does not have typical sepals, petals, anthers and ovary, therefore there is no question of any pollination, fertilization or fruit-seed formation.

There are a variety of recipes involving different ingredients. All of them I’m sure are delicious. No matter what kind of meat and spices you use, this one has to have two things in common: moist and flavorful.
Ingredients
1 pound ground beef chuck
1 1/4 teaspoons salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 cup chopped onion
1/2 cup chopped green bell pepper
1 egg beaten
8 ounce can diced tomatoes with the juice
1/2 cup quick cooking oats
Brown Sugar Glaze:
1/3 cup ketchup
3 tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon yellow mustard
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375 degrees.
Mix the ground beef, salt, pepper, onion, green peppers, egg, oats and diced tomatoes well.
You may have to use your hands, but don’t overwork the meat. Just until the ingredients are mixed in.
Form a loaf and place in a baking dish.
Mix ketchup, brown sugar and mustard together and spread over the meat.
Bake uncovered 1 hour, draining grease away twice by tipping the dish and using a spoon or holding the meat with a spatula and draining straight from the dish.
Food rarities: to eat or not to eat, that is the question! 🤣😁😆😅
I found these rare combinations of foods in the interwebs.
People just posted these pics without describing the ingredients and what to do with them. And for the life of me, I couldn’t find the name of them anywhere. I was wondering if any of you know what kind of food this is and if you would eat it!
I was wondering who eats this kind of ingredients and the combination of them.
I usually eat everything, normal, common and some rare food, but these are way over my league.
I like to try food from all over the world and experiment different flavors. But these foods look too weird, even for me who has tried it almost all!
Australian Nut, Queensland Nut, Bush Nut, Baphal Nut
Scientific Name: Macadamia ternifolia FvMUELL
Family: Proteaceae (Protea Family)
Habitat: Australia, Indonesia
Constituents:
Approximately 80% monounsaturated fatty acids of which about 50% is oleic acid and 20% palmitoleic acid, vitamins A, B, E, minerals. Macadamia nut: about 70% fat, vitamin B, calcium, iron, phosphorus.
1. BENEFITS ON THE SKIN
One of the antioxidants is squalene. It is rare and has a particularly strong impact on our skin. Squalene is a naturally occurring antioxidant in our body, but adding more through this nut oil can help reduce oxidative stress on the body’s fats and the skin.
As our skin ages it rapidly starts to lose Palmitoleic acid. This important fatty acid is the reason why macadamia is the perfect inclusion for mature skin types. By using macadamia oil topically, you restore your skin’s palmitoleic acid levels while maintaining a youthful glow.
2. ENERGY LEVELS
This nut-oil gives you a quick boost of energy to the body, something which the oil can also provide. However, you have to be careful with the dose (amount) of nuts and its oil while consuming, as it can quickly translate into weight gain and obesity, which comes with its own long list of health risks.
3. STRENGTHENS THE HAIR
This oil penetrates hair more efficiently than some other oils, like mineral oil. Mineral oil can build up on your scalp. Over time, it can make your hair feel heavier and look duller.
4. RETAINS HEALTHY FATS
Although this isn’t a definitive health benefit, this Australian nut oil has a higher smoke point than other vegetable oils, like olive oil. Therefore, when you’re cooking with it, you are far less likely to burn off the beneficial fats, which are the main reason why you are using the oil in the first place.
5. GREAT FOR COOKING
It is excellent for cooking because of its high smoke point of over 400 degrees Fahrenheit. It is typically higher than olive oil. This is important, because when oil begins to burn, it denatures and loses many of its health benefits, possibly become carcinogenic.
When there is love for chocolate and flowers, you don´t need Valentine´s Day.
These choco-roses are gorgeous, delicious flowers made out of a modeling material.
They also look wonderful in white. I love this version that was made for Valentines Day from Elizabeth of Sugar Hero. The gentle fold of the petals looks like they are so fresh and are just opening up. They are the perfect atop çher triple swirl frosting!
