Vegetable Curry

Vegetable Curry

I was in a mood for curry so I made some vegetable curry and served it with brown rice. The primary ingredient in curry powder and also an ingredient I added more of in my curry is turmeric. According to Ayurvedic medicine, a study of medicine that originated in India and focuses on longevity, turmeric has many great benefits. It strengthens digestion and has antibacterial, anti-flammatory, antioxidant, anti-tumor, and anti-amyloidal properties.  This powerful spice may also help improve memory. On addition, turmeric has valuable external use for cuts and burns because of its anti-flammatory property and its ability to stimulate tissue growth. I totally support the use of turmeric and curry in cooking. I should  definitely use it more often in my cooking. Hope you enjoy my curry recipe. Read more for recipe.

Sugar Cookies

Additive Sugar Cookies

Sugar cookie time. I found a recipe for Chewy Sugar Cookies on foodnetwork.com.  I thought it would be a good idea to reduce the sugar from one and a half cups of sugar to one and a quarter cups of sugar since I do not like my cookies too sweet; however, I was wrong. The reduced sugar failed to make the cookies chewy. Although the cookies were not chewy, they had a nice texture. They were medium soft and had somewhat of a slight crumbly texture. In addition, they were delicious and additive. The cookies’ strong buttery and buttermilk taste will keep you coming back for more so please control yourself. I had a little try controlling myself; hopefully you will do better than me.  Read more for the recipe. I hope you enjoy!!!
