How To Bring Outdoor Recipes Indoors

10.31.2017 by mumwrites // Leave a Comment

You love everything about camping and the great outdoors — the plants, the animals, the quiet, the stars in the sky. When you’re stuck indoors because of weather, work or time, you can still bring some of your favorite aspects of camping to your home. One of the easiest and most fun ways to do this is with your favorite camping recipes. You don’t need a roaring fire, but just a few tricks to make a delicious meal.

Breakfast

You don’t need a campfire to get a delicious, outdoor-inspired breakfast. If you want to go for a classic, like pancakes, a cast iron skillet will be your new best friend. These skillets retain their heat and provide a nice, even cook to every dish, meaning you can make pancake after pancake without having to wait for the pan to rebound its temperature. Cast iron also is a great choice because it retains the flavors of oil, butter and grease when you season the pan. You can easily use a cast iron skillet on your stove top at home (or put it in the oven for baked dishes). An outdoors store will carry a wide variety of shapes and sizes, which will help you choose the right skillet for your home and camping trips. Now, for your pancakes, you’re going to want to add some fresh butter before every serving to keep that rich flavor. Check out Fresh off the Grid for a full recipe. [Read more…]

The home is where the word comfort is probably felt the strongest. It is a space where its residents can truly loosen up and relax their tensed bodies after a day’s worth of work. It is also where people can really have enjoyment in cooking and eating their food, because it is where they probably tasted their favorite food from their parents’ cooking. The word home has served as more than just a space of comfort and sustenance, it has always been a reason for people to do better in life— in a way making the home better.

One way of making the home better is by filling it in with appliances that could make the home life easier, especially with the chores. While people try to get the most convenient and easy to use equipment. They also tend to get those items that looks good in the space it takes up. Midea, the world’s leading manufacturer of consumer appliances, understands the need for having home solutions that both satisfies form and function that provides surprisingly friendly solutions. With top-notch technology and stylish looks, Midea appliances could also easily get a space in anybody’s home.

One of which is Midea’s Induction Cooker that has a sleek design which gives it a stylishly futuristic look. It could sit lavishly on any kitchen counter top and don’t take that too much space— perfect for those living in condominium units. It is a common notion that induction cookers need specialized pans to cook food, but the truth is, as long as a magnet will stick to your pan there is no need to buy new sets of cookware to use Midea’s Induction Cooker.

It is also easier to control the temperature of the pan, unlike with its predecessors – the gas stoves and other electric cooktops. It is easier to clean because the food only gets cooked in the pan and not on the cooker. At the same time, it won’t burn your hands or fingers, because of its flameless heating and Auto Safe shut off feature that automatically cools off the cooker.
