Ting's Food Hour!
Food for me is...
0
Hello everyone!
My name is Ting and I'm making a thread similar to that of cutiepie Waffle's Thread! Check it out if you get the chance! I'm going to be posting food related things in this thread. I constantly go out and eat considering I live in New York City! I applied to be in the Food focus at NYC for housing in college so I'm on a floor where we have something around $9000 dedicated to food (for about 15 people). While I'm not in culinary school, I always highly admired chefs and always wanted to go to culinary school (but my parents didn't allow me to).
I'm really interested in the process of cooking and the art of cooking as well. I think food is something that speaks about ones culture and personal identity.
I hope everyone feels free to talk in this thread about themselves, their own relationship with food, and their different experiences!
Introduction post:
1. What's your name?
2. What's your CURRENT* favorite food? (Because I know how hard this question is!)
3. Can you cook? If so, what do you specialize in if anything at all?
4. What was your most recent meal?
5. Average amount of meals per day?
EDIT: 6. Thanks to Baobao and James, share one recipe if you want!!

First Entry!
I currently don't have a kitchen so these were taken/done about 2 years ago! I made ramen for the first time and it was actually VERY good! I wish I had more progress photos because I know how helpful they are but this will have to do. It takes about only 20 minutes to make and it's SO simple so it's great for a quick meal!! Enjoy!:

1 Name - James
2 Favorite Food - Sushi; specifically Chirashi style (technical name is Tekka-Don) and I love the oo-toro cut of the Blue Fin maguro Tuna for this particular delicacy.
3 Can you cook/what is your specialty? - I have been told I cook extremely well for someone with no training, and consider myself rather knowledgeable in terms of Technique. I specialize in a variety of pasta dishes and french desserts.
4 Most recent meal - I just had a homemade chili-burger with homefries.
5 Average meals - I usually eat a light breakfast and a hearty dinner if I can get it.
I keep this recipe handy at all times as it is a personal favorite for myself and my family/friends. I hope if you try it out, you enjoy it ^_^

Since the Keydrive if forever lost in cyberspace, I will post a different recipe.
Now mind you, I roughly estimate when I cook, I don't have to measure anymore.
Pumpkin Punch.
2 lb pumpkin
1 pack evaporated milk (250 ml)
1/2 tin condensed milk
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 tsp angostura bitters
a couple bay leaves,
powdered cloves
Cinnamon
I like mine with a lot of pumpkin, so I increase the amount. Oh, and don't forget to strain it when finished, especially if picky about "grainy" liquids.
Basic steps:
Peel and chop the pumpkin into cubes.
Boil until soft. Not mushy, however. Allow to cool.
Puree in a blender.
Add about half inch of water above pumpkin puree in blender. Add more if you want it liquidier.
Add milk, spices and sugar.
Strain and add bitters and bay leaves.
Chill and serve on ice, and enjoy.
Don't forget to always stir it, the pumpkin tends to settle. And watch out for the bay-leaves. Not all people like the taste of them.
