Remembering Old Cooking Skills

When I was still at junior school I remember being told that when we got to high school, we would be taught how to cook and sew and that this was part of the curriculum so we could not escape from it. It turned out the girls were correct and when we entered high school, each class was divided in two and one class was made to do cooking for six months, with the other doing sewing and then we would swap over. I was in the group which had to sew first and I remember that we had to make a school skirt and learn all the necessary skills such as cutting, hand stitching and using a sewing machine.

We seemed to have pulled the short straw as the other group was having so much fun in their cooking classes and would tell us all about the things that they were making, while never actually letting us share the results! I could hardly wait for the time when it was our turn and so when the skirt was duly finished and graded, we started our cooking lessons. I was hooked from the start as I found it both interesting and enjoyable as well as being able to take home tasty treats. I was a quick learner and to this day I can still recall a lot of the tips which we were told would help us, even though I cannot recall the teacher's name or face.

At the weekend I had the chance to do some baking after a long time since I have been without an oven for quite a while. I found that I still enjoyed the whole process of selecting recipes, buying ingredients, weighing out things and then the actual baking and filling the house with delicious smells. As we were baking, my niece mentioned that she had heard about a different style of cooking called Sous Vide cooking and explained that it was a method of slow cooking food at a low consistent temperature. The food is apparently prepared and placed in a special plastic sealed bag and then left in a water bath until it is ready.

She claims that the food is tender and moist and full of flavour and so I decided to get a unit and try it for myself. She told me about Sous Vide Supreme Promo Code and told me about some free online coupons which were available. Being already experienced with baking and traditional cooking of different cuisines, I wanted to try out something new and this sounded promising.

With the correct Promo Code, I was happy with both the price and the results of the cooking method. It is easy to use and involves no monitoring or guessing. The funny thing is that those early days of learning cooking and sewing skills led to an interest in cooking but it was the sewing skills which led to a career in the fashion industry!
