257/356: Tofu

My first time cooking with Tofu.

For a long time I avoided eating Tofu because I was convinced that I didn't like it. But then I ate it a few times, I don't know when it started, and I had to admit that it's not that bad. But I have never cooked with it. I changed that last Monday. 

I went to the supermarket to pick up some kind of Tofu. There were at least three or four different one's and because I didn't really have a plan what I would make for dinner, I bought the one that looked like it needed the least effort. Also it's from this Karma line of foods that Coop introduced a few months back and I generally like those products. 

So how was it? Well nothing to write home about to be honest. Not much taste on itself. I used some of my Okonomiyaki sauce though and that was the perfect fit.

139/356: Bio Energy Drink


I tried this beauty. I am not sure what is bio about the drink, probably the packaging.
I am also not quite sure what "botanic energy" should be. Essentially it could be anything right?
A fast new that I consumed before getting ready to welcome a friend over for dinner. It was just as sweet as all the other energy drinks. I couldn't really identify anything special about it.This will go down as an unspectacular first.

cheers

129/356: Onigri And White Wine

I ended my vegetarian week on Saturday. Actually it was more like a vegetarian work week. I only made it from Monday to Friday. I had guests on Saturday and I just didn't know what to make for them without using meat. It was interesting to not eat any meat or fish for a whole week. I never felt like I missed the meat but I did have to think about what I would cook for myself. Now if I was to do a vegan week, well that would be a whole different level.. but let's not go there.. yet.



I ended the week with an Onigri from Coop. I guess not the best choice. It wasn't anything special. I just wanted to see what the Onigri would be like and I can happily report that I never need to have it again. I don't know what I expected from a supermarket Onigri.

During the dinner I drank a bottle of wine of a manufacturer I never had before. That went a whole lot better. My landlord is a nice elderly man that gets wine delivered on a regular basis. He get 24 or more bottles every time and because we only have stairs I help to carry them up. He always gives me a bottle for helping and since I don't drink wine just by myself, the started to pile up. I can report that the wine tastes good and that I now only have one bottle left to drink.. that one will probably go next Saturday.



cheers

96/356: Karma; Vegetarian Convenience Food

There is a new line of vegetarian convenience food at the supermarket I usually buy my lunch at. I saw it for the first time late last week and today I decided to give it a try.


They were both quite good but I prefer the Pasta to the Bulgur. The Bulgur (what ever that is) had some dried fruits in it and I prefer my food to be either salty or sweet. If I have both, I get confused. I am not sure if I will get either again because I try to avoid food like this but I might sneak in some of the pasta at some point or other.

21/356: Firefly

Sup?

I had a firefly today. Seems to be a fancy new soda. Well there are no bubbles so I am not sure if you can call it a soda. Let's call it lemon and lime juice with lots of suger. Still sour as hell. Since I like sour, I really enjoyed it.

Also, remember that hot sauce two days ago? Love, love, love it. I could have it on anything!
