Hi

I like home cooking. Old school Italian food and Greek food. ❤️😃 i love to cook and I like to try different recipes and food ideas from around the world and such too. But I just leave Italian food alone. It is THE best! Especially when done wight. 🌎🤗
 
Favorite food is very nice 5 star restaurant food I would say, probably.

I mean, that's when the taste would be at the top at least.

Elite food. :D

Not ever been much into food though generally. Could almost skip that if possible.
But one must eat, and eat healthy to be healthy.

That was my contribution.
 
I don't have a favorite food, I like everything as long as it's homemade food (I don't like eating out because you never know how the food is prepared, if the kitchen or the employees are hygienic).
 
Most of the five star restaurants I have been to are not the same since the covid hit a lot of things have changed when it comes to food and service. But then again it depends on where you go to eat? As a little kid growing up I used to eat at fast food restaurants and five star restaurants all over. I always thought it was fun to explore and get out and have fun.🤩 it was never hard to please me or satisfy me when it come to a yummy dish of some kind? Especially if it's done right! And as I got older I become more and more fussy. And since food has gone up in price I don't go to restaurants much anymore. Most the time I cook my food at home and it tastes just as good if not better.🤗❤️ Italian food being my number one favorite! But i have gained so much weight eating it! That I have to walk away from it and leave it alone for a while. And now I am trying to cook culinary Foods that are low in calories. And cooking at home makes it much more pleasant. And I save money. 🍽🥂🤔🙂
 
(Disclaimer): You may need a drink of tea or water for my comment... I went overboard again. 😄


Definitely homemade pizza is #1. I'm also a fan of tempeh stir-fry with brown (or wild) rice, salmon + caeser salad with mashed potatoes, guacamole on toast with a blasamic vinegarette salad, scrambled eggs. broccoli mac & cheese, tuna melts and salad... things like that. I'm sure I could be much healthier though I do only eat homemade foods. It's much better than eating out as you know all the ingredients are healthy (healthy oils/butter, quality vegetables and so on).

I also like making homemade granola with oats, pecans, tahini, maple syrup, ground flax, cocoa powder, coconut oil an a bit of Himalayan pink salt. (I know I'm a little OCD LOL!)

I'm sometimes afraid to try new things yet I think that's always good to do. I might try intermittent fasting (8-hour window) following a keto diet with fermented foods for a while though just to help my digestion out and reset my microbiome as I used to have a terrible diet as a kid. The saying is very true, that our health is our wealth! I'm also thinking of taking a break from coffee. I also love spicy foods! That said, combining spicy foods with tomatoes and caffeine is a recipe for disaster! Thus, I tend to not go as crazy as I did in the past with spices. (I used to make an insane bean chili!)

Sorry to go on there. Definitely though, #1 for me is a Greek style pizza (with olives and feta) with a homemade saude (made from tomato paste) on a thin crust of buckwheat dough. 🙂
Also, spelt and einkorn are very good too! I can't handle regular wheat as well.


I'd suggest that the best foods are the ones that make you feel the best and cause you not to over-eat. Real whole foods, that's always the best. It's also good to steam vegetables. Boiling removes more of the nutrients however if you keep it in a broth (like a soup/stew) many of the minerals stay in the broth, yet you do lose out more in some vitamins, especially water soluble ones (B & C) if I'm not mistaken. It's best to not fry or broil them too much and to include some raw ones (though not too much). It's all about finding a balance.

Overall, cooking vetables makes some nutrients more bioavailable while other times it removes more nutrients. For that reason a combination of both is good to have.


Anyway... wow there I go gain lol!!! I tend to be overly descriptive. 🤣
 
Can I ask you something, instead? Your nickname is an Italian word meaning idiot/dumb. Did you choose a denigrating nickname for yourself or you didn't know? If is the first case, is not very nice for yourself fit in self-denigrating identity, it seems a insignificant thing, but it may be negative unconsciously. A positive mindset is helpful. :giggle:

To answer your question, I love soups in general and oriental cuisine. Especially in winter, I like to make ramen at home, but I use local ingredients, so is possibile to make many variations. I also tried to make korean kimchi at home, but I failed miserably.😢

To avoid having my citizenship taken away, I have to write that I also love pizza (which is not false, I like it, but I can't digest it very well and go into a coma after eating it).
