martyna...erm, honestly, what about I do not know.
So I'll just see what communities I haven't yet talked about. Hm, food-related ones?
Some of you might now, for a couple of weeks now I starve for cooking. When it comes to cooking, I know nothing and the little I try is messed up. So I've been in a stroke to change this situation at least slightly and have done some easy meals (basically spaghetti with sauce with almost random ingredients) to warm up and even made Matt appreciate some of it (who doesn't like anything tomato-related, but then maybe he didn't appreciate the food, but just my effort to do it). I've done some "Gâteaux mousses au chocolat" which turned out quite delicious (in my opinion) and the people I shared them with seemed to enjoy them equally.
So for taking some further steps into the kitchen, I have subscribed to a heap of communities and feeds with the kitchen-theme, which makes me realise how many tools for the trade I lack.resa is not only a friend, but she's been also a great inspiration for this (renewed) interest of mine!

boilingwater is for very basic cooking and you shouldn't be afraid to asks questions. I've seen several recipes so far that do stir my interest. (But I lack a mixing device.)

simplyrecipes_feed looks more like "standard" meals, but there seem to be some interesting ideas. just_hungry_feed is about food, too, but has lots of random talk in it - at least I do feel as if it isn't addressing me directly enough, so considering the amount of communities and feeds I've joined to check on them, this might be one that won't stay if I start combing through what needs to go. (On the other hand there are nifty explanations, for example on How to make onigiri.)
thriftycooking has interesting discussions, but many of the topics don't apply for our household... (I couldn't make broth, we don't have a big enough pot.)
Now,happylittlebento_feed has a lot of... happy little bentos. Honestly they are so sweet to look at! The same goes for bentolicious_feed. bentobliss_feed has a lot of every-day-bentos, which doesn't make it look any less yummier.
adventures_bento_feed has not only a contest going on, but there are lots and lots of interesting, cute and intriguing bentos to be discovered. (I'm not a LOST-fan myself, but those might be particularly interested in the LOST-themed bentos.)
Und auf Deutsch:bentolunchblog_feed
I think that must have been the bulk. If you have any other communities or feeds in that direction to recommend, go ahead! And now: omnomnomnom!

Date: 2010-04-17 08:40 am (UTC)Ich würde ja auch gerne eine richtige Kuchenform haben und nicht nur diese Quiche/Tarte-Dinger. - So wie http://www.thesmartcook.com/quiche-pan-kaiser-la-forme-pr-260.html, aber ohne doppelten Boden. Davon haben wir eine metallene und eine gläserne Form. Ich bin mir sicher eine gehört eigentlich Matt's Eltern, die sie mal mit und zum Essen hier mitgebracht haben. xD
Ein Mixer wäre auch toll! (Aber obwohl wir wenig Zeug haben, sind die Schränke überfüllt und der Rest ist zu hoch... obwohl man sicher einige Kleinigkeiten ausmisten könnte.)
Ein Reiskocher war mal in Überlegung, aber da sind ordentliche ja relativ schwierig in Europa zu bekommen - und ausserdem sollte man vorher seine Reisskillz aufbessern - wozu mir einfällt: Was benutzt du um deine Onigiri zu formen? Unser Cellophan ist leider sehr klebrig, werde aber jetzt Ausschau halten, was es besseres in der Kategorie gibt.

Date: 2010-04-17 09:16 am (UTC)Meine Onigiri mache ich tatsächlich per Hand, ohne Folie. (Ich habe zwar Onigiriformer, die fürs Bento und darum sehr klein sind, aber den Trick mit denen hab ich noch nicht ganz raus. *g*) Wenn man nasse Hände hat und sie ordentlich mit Salz bestreut, sollte es weder mit dem klebrigen Reis noch mit Bakterien ein Problem geben.

Date: 2010-04-17 09:56 am (UTC)(Die Muffinform war ein Geschenk von Matt's Ma als wir mal zusammen einkaufen gegangen sind und der Wasserkocher von seinen Grosseltern die einen gewonnen hatten, aber ihren alten behalten wollten. ^^;)
Ich fand diese Anleitung (http://www.justhungry.com/2007/01/onigiri_omusubi_revisited_an_e.html) eigentlich ganz gut und wollte es dementsprechend so probieren, ich habe nämlich Mühe mir das ganze OHNE vorzustellen (obwohl ich in Japan einmal welche gemacht haben müsste, aber da hatten wir auch Folie). Hmmm. Tuppersachen habe ich ja momentan auch nicht, es sei denn man zählt die zwei-drei Minidinger dazu, von denen aber mindestens einer immer dreckig ist. *lach*
Mal sehen. :) Vielleicht -wenn ich es denn schaffe nach D zu kommen- kann ich beim Umzug meiner Ma noch was abgreifen. *lacht*
