How to make bread

    How to make bread
  1. For the yeast sugar mixture of the bread, we need 1 tbsp instant dry yeast. This is the bacteria which helps the bread rise. 

     
  2. To this add 2 tbsp sugar. This is the food for the yeast. 
     
  3. Add ¼ cup of warm water in a bowl and mix well. This warm water helps in the activation of yeast. Click here to learn how to make bread in detail. 
     

How to select spinach

    How to select spinach
  1. Choose spinach that has vibrant deep green leaves and stems with no signs of yellowing.
     
  2. The leaves should look fresh and tender, and not be wilted or bruised. 
     
  3. Avoid those that have a slimy coating as this is an indication of decay.
     
  4. Also check for dirt especially in between the thick stems. 

How to select garlic

    How to select garlic
  1. Try to pick out sturdy crisp pods of garlic which do not appear wilted.
     
  2. Further the garlic pods should not be soft on touch. 
     
  3. You should also check for mould and mildew on the garlic.
     
  4. The garlic pods should not have any black, yellow or green spots. That is an indication of spoilage. 
     

How to blanch spinach

    How to blanch spinach
  1. To blanch spinach, take a bunch of spinach. Choose spinach that has vibrant deep green leaves and stems with no signs of yellowing. The leaves should look fresh and tender, and not be wilted or bruised. Avoid those that have a slimy coating as this is an indication of decay.
     
  2. Removing the stems and discard them.
  3. Wash the leaves thoroughly under running water or in a bowl full of water. This will help in getting rid of the dirt residues on the leaves.
     
  4. Drain well using a strainer. Take approx. 1½ cups of roughly chopped spinach.
     
  5. Take a deep pan, add water to it and put it for boiling.
     
  6. Add salt. My mother says that adding salt while boiling vegetable helps in cooking the vegetable faster as salt raises the temperature of the water and it also retains the color.

     
  7. Once the water comes to boil, add the chopped and washed spinach leaves.
     
  8. Mix well and cook for 2-3 minutes. Till the spinach gets tender. Do not over cook the leaves as it might loose the color. Switch off the flame.
     
  9. Drain the water using strainer. Throw the water away.
     
  10. Plunge the leaves in a bowl of ice cold water. This step is known as refreshing, it is done to retain the colour of the spinach and it also halts the process of cooking.
     
  11. Once again drain well using a strainer.
     
  12. Squeeze out remaining water wrom the leaves with your hands to get rid of excesse water and discard. You will get approx. 4 tbsp of blanched and chopped spinach.
