Microwaved Bread
Looks like toast. Tastes like bread.

1 Microwave
1 Breadslice
1 plate (optional)

This may seem simple but it's quite difficult. Put a piece of bread into a microwav set it for 30sec and make sure the bread is on an angle so it won't get wet and shrivel up. If you hang it from the ceiling of the microwave, put a plate at the bottom to collect the steamwater. This takes practice. Very difficult to make.

Uhm let's clear something up in here.

Gnocchi are made of potatoes and flour, and yeah they're the plural of "gnocco" (tho you'll rarely ever use the word since it's not so likely to eat just one).

Pasta is basically made of wheat and water, tho many variations are available, including the use of eggs.

Ravioli, tortellini and cappellini are pretty much the same concept with different variations.

Ravioli are made of two pasta squares with dented edges, and stuffing inside.



Tortellini are smaller,no dented edges and wrapped in a different way.



The "tortelloni" are just a bigger version of tortellini.
On the other hand, the "cappelletti" are a smaller version:



The stuffing can be pretty much everything, most common being spinach, different kinds of ham, mushrooms, pumpkin, cheese.

Never heard of the "alfredo" sauce before, but the "Carbonara" is quite good and easy to make, and made of eggs, salt, pepper and roasted bacon. You can add milk as well. If someone is longing for the full recipe, just ask. k:

Cornflakes

Novice version:

What you need:

- some money
- 1 supermarket that sell cerials in packages and milk
- 1 pack/bottle of milk from that store
- 1 pack of cornfalkes (optionally with or without sugar) from that store
- 1 a dish (the bigger - the better)
- 1 spoon
- 1 refridgerator
- some hunger

Preparation:
go to your supermarket and figure out where the cerials and milk is stored. when you have problems with orientation you may ask a nice personell person. get your milk and cerials. go to the counter and pay with the "some money". make sure to get some change back. else you should probably ask a local police officer if everything was OK rather than having trouble with the massive man at the exit of the store.

put the milk into the refridgerator - wait at least 2 hours until you continue preparing your meal. You may skip this step when the milk is already cold. If you are not sure if it is cold enough just take a sip out of the box and when your teeth hurt the temperature is quite OK.

pose the dish on a table or other plain surface. Now carefully add the cerials to the
bowl until it is almost full. Now pour some cold milk (refridgerated) over it and directly begin to use the "spoon" to get some of the ingredients of the bowl into your mouth. (that's the big hole beneath your nose - make sure it is opened before putting the spoon in it!)

Repeat the last step until the bowl is entirely empty. If there should remain some milk in the bowl just pour it onto the next grandma you find. That is good for her skin and she will be happily giving you some money for your nice deed.

After all is completely empty you may begin again with step 1. but please make sure you are hungry! otherwise you may send everything you bought to little children who do not have enough to eat.

have a nice day! And remember Cerials are making you strong and smart!

If you clearly understand these steps and if you feel like a pro already then wait for the Pro-Version of this receipt!

Is vanilla icecream toast really actually good?

I had fried icecream in the carribean, which was icecream inside something that had been fried, and that was good. Toast sounds good too.

Afredo sauce is a white sauce made by thickenning mixture of cream, butter, and flour (or corn starch, possibly eggs, too) and adding a little garlic and a lot of parmesan cheese. As the thickenning step is rather fiddly and prone to boiling over and/or going lumpy, I just go to the grocery store and buy it in jars.

It is a generic sauce that can be improved by the addition of any of a variety of flavourings. My choices are bell peppers, onions, mushrooms, and some kind of meat (chicken, bacon, shrimp, or scallops). It can be poured over any starchy stuff; usually, some kind of pasta, but rice is also good. By extension, alfredo sauce should be good on mashed potatoes, but that seems rather decadent. It might be nice on crepes.

Carbonata is also nice. A mixture of mushrooms, bell peppers, onions, and bacon. Along with a number of eggs, the sauce is stirred into the pasta, as soon as the pasta is drained but still quite hot. The dish is completed with a dusting of black pepper.

Cornflakes

Novice version:

I have something to add to this recipe to make it less confusing for the novice chef:

pose the dish on a table or other plain surface.

The dish (or "bowl" as the cool kids call them nowadays) must be placed on the table in a concave up orientation. When viewed from the side, it should look like this:

\__/

Placing the bowl on the table in any other orientation will cause problems in later steps.

I know how to poach an egg without haveing to spend ages scrubbing cooked on egg out of the pan.

Get some microwaveable clingfilm

Get a cup

Push the cling film into the cup, and crack the egg into the cling film
You should be able to tie the clingfilm around the top of the egg,

Drop egg into boiling water, and poach normally, it'll taste great, and you wont have to spend ages scrubbing cooked on egg out of the pan.
