Je fais cette salade pour ma fille qui emmène sa gamelle le midi.
Elle adore les sushis mais ceux-ci sont chers ou longs à préparer. Cette salade a le gout de sushi, mais est beaucoup plus simple.

2 tasses de riz à sushi préparé, froid
1/4 tasse de vinaigre de riz
1/8 de tasse de sucre
sel au gout
1 càs de graines de sésame
3 càs d'huile de canola
1 càs de gingembre frais haché finement
4 tiges d'oignons verts, hachées
1 carotte rapée ou coupée en julienne
1 concombre coupé en petits dés
1 avocat coupé en cubes et arrosé de citron
150g de surimi en petites tranches
2 càc de wasabi en poudre
2 càs de sauce soja

Je mélange tous les ingrédients et voila!

I found a good recipe for a flan. This is a light dessert, refreshing. However the custard part got separated from the doughpart. It ends up like a kind of pie with custard on it.

7 full tbs of flour

7 tbs of sugar (flattened)

3 eggs

3.5 cps of milk

1 pinch of salt

1 tsp vanilla

1 lichette de rhum

Pour the dough into a buttered glass dish, bake for 1 hour.

Heat oven at 325F. Mix flour, sugar, salt, add eggs, then milk little by little, and add rum.

One of the things that are worth cooking in a time of crisis is a staple like bread. Here on the left is one of the breads I make most : oatmeal bread. It lasts us two days (for a family of three).

In general, breads with milk in them last longer than "crusty/french" bread, which don't have milk or eggs. This one is a little bit more indulgent, as it has both an egg and a cup of milk. It's lightly sweet, too. The outside is crispy when just out of the oven (bread machine in my case) and the inside is tender and flavorful. It's golden color is due to the honey, I guess.

Here is the recipe for the bread machine. I guess it could be done by hand, if you try it let me know. Estimated cost for this bread : $ 1.60. A package of white Wonder bread, 20 oz package, costs $ 2.99.

1 cup milk, lightly heated (30 seconds in the microwave)

1 large egg (I use egg substitute for less fat)

2 tbs canola oil or butter, melted

2 tbs honey

1 cp rolled oats

2.75 cps bread flour

1.5 tsp salt

1.5 tsp yeast

Place all ingredients in the bread machine in the order suggested by your manfacturer. I place liquids first. Here is a tip : measure oil first with your table spoon. Then measure the honey with it. The honey will slip right out and won't stick. No need to use two spoons !

Let me know what you think but this one has never failed me.

Welcome to my crisis cooking blog. I hope that this blog will help you get new ideas for cooking healthy, yummy and cheap dishes. I have always cooked from scratch because I just love the sensual aspect of cooking. Now that we are in a deep crisis, cooking from scratch is even more important because you can CONTROL what ingredients you use and the final price of what you eat.

In this blog I will try to use everyday ingredients as much as possible, and estimate the price of each portion for you. Even though I love cooking, I don't like to spend lots of time on recipes that demand a lot of preparation, so you'll probably won't feel discouraged by my recipes even if you are not a great cook.
