Do you have a food that reminds you about your childhood?
Hello everyone!
Do you have a food that reminds you about your childhood?
1. Do you cook it for yourself?
2. Would you like to taste it again?
3. Do you remember the recipe?
I'll start with it!
This is a sweet food that reminds me about my childhood because grandmother did it for me many times!
I make it same way every Christmas, it is "mascarpone cheese cream"
It can be used also to stuff cakes when they are baked.
Here is the receipe ! Ingredients :
- 1 cup mascarpone cheese (250 gr)
- 2 eggs
- 3 tablespoons sugar
- 1 tablespoon powder-cocoa
- 1 tablespoon Brandy liquor
Whisk together mascarpone cheese, powder-cocoa, yolks, sugar and Brandy in a large bowl just until blended. You can use an electric mix medium speed (or a large wood-spoon).
Now beat whipping eggs-white part in another bowl until it stiff, then add it slowly, like 3 tablespoons at a time, and using a large wood-spoon mix it to the mascarpone cream in the large bowl, with a slow movement from the bottom to the top (do not use electric mix for that!!) because it is meant to make the cream softer and more "inflated". Ready to taste!
The cream can be put in the fridge for conservation!

Yummy, yes! Hope you have occasion to taste it everytime you wish !
a recipe that makes me to think childhood.
ingredients- flattened rice ,jaggery and ghee.
soak the flattened rice for sometime without too much water just dry it and mix palm jaggery and heated ghee and make small balls and serve it .this recipe is famous in village coz they got no money for buying laddus this small balls is easy to make and fills the sweet tooth.
I have alot of them, but one that I love is called "bolinhos de bacalhau".
Is basically mashed potatoes with salsa (the herb) and salted cod, made with a spoon to get the shape.
They look like this:

I only help making them. I mostly remember them because my grandmother made them wonderfully and nowdays my mum makes them too :)

Those look amazing!!
Yes!! Purple Yams aka Ube. I dont cook it or bake it, I havent been brave enough to venture out with this ingredient. But I can purchase all kinds of Ube desserts from a local Asian market. It is a delightful taste and really brings me back to my childhood. I am somewhat happy that the Asian market is a distance away or else I'll be eating this every chance I get haha

Maybe one day you will have the will to try doing it by your own!
@BeyondTheInvisible
You have made me think and funnily enough I now cook all my childhood dishes and have taught my kids to cook them too!

Sausage, onion, pepper plus we always addded potatoes to make it a whole/fuller meal. My grandfather used to cook this meal now I cook it for myself at times. I love to eat it and remember the recipe well here it is if anyone wants to try/make/eat it.
You will need: A casserole dish line it with tin foil and spray it with cook spray or dump some olive oil to coat the pan. Put the oven on 350-400 F. Heat the oven.
Ingredients/prep: Green peppers, I like a sweet onion, sweet or hot Itialian sausage whatever one you like, and golden potatoes, buy as many as you need I get 3 of each kind. Wash and chop up in good size pieces all your ingredients and put it in the heated oven. Keep a eye on it and stir every so often, I would say for 1 hour plus I eye it to see when it is done. It is done when the potatoe is soft to poke a fork in and the sausage is brown and the veggies soft, everything will be a golden brown. Take it out plate it and enjoy, I like to put ketchup on top up to you. Enjoy!
