Food Traditions

Thursday, July 10th, 2008 | 21 Comments

Working at home today Though I still have a lot to do, I can at least do it in my pajamas. I like when I can work from home, besides the obvious reasons, I enjoy my little traditions. For over a year now my biggest habit is what I make for lunch! Simple pastas using prepackaged sauce mixes! My favorites have always been from the brand S&B. I have tried a few American versions, but they are harder to make (you actually have to cook the sauce mix) and have never tasted very good. Though I did see new liquid pouches come out this summer. Though I like the dried with light tomato paste ones. I’ve had the liquid pouches of Japanese brands & they weren’t really spectacular.

So, today I have ペペロンチーノ [pepperchino , my favorite!] バジル [basil] is also very tasty.



2 pouches (x2). 1 dry ingredients the other liquid sauce…


Cooking up the pasta! I like smaller pastas for these, so I chose mini-shells plus some rigatoni


DRAIN TIME!


First add the liquid pouch


Then the dry pouch! See the pepperchino slices & garlic!?


Today is special because I’m going to add some herbs from my herb garden! Fresh basil, thyme, and rosemary!!!


Mix together, top with parmesan, and enjoy! :spiritsup:

I thought I’d get bored of eating this after a while, never have. There are different flavors plus is so quick & easy it’s perfect for cooking while still being able to work on projects.
