Cooking

So I cooked a nice, yummy meal tonight. Chile in fact. It was a delightful beginning. I chopped the garlic, onions and bell peppers, and I did so I started to find a sway in my hips, you know girls, the sway front to back that makes you feel like you have a naughty man between your thighs. HmmMmm.

Any way. For the first time I really saw the colors of cooking. The blending of reds, greens and whites, the vivid fresh organic blends of the earth. And the aroma's when I started to add the spices. I honestly had my first nose-gasm. It was delicious.

I decided to use a new spice that I had randomly come across in my many perusings...Tumeric. And just so you know, this is a handy spice to consume.

(PLEASE NOTE: I totally looked up Tumeric as my chili ingredients were swapping...flavors. My findings found that tumeric:
  • is an anti-inflammatory - helps swelling related with arthritus
  • is an antioxidant
  • is a broncho-dilator - useful during asthma attacks
  • bile stimulant - great for digestion and helps protect the liver (which we need with that bottle of wine...not as great as Milk Thistle perhaps, but refresh your body after a night of drinking!)
  • reduces the risk of heart attacks
  • blood purifier
  • detoxifer
  • possibly anticancer
  • helps with skin problems.

It was nice to be able to apply my knowledge of spices and be creative in the kitchen. I would like to share this with someone. I would like to think my man but he doesn't always appreciate a home cooked meal. Which is why I now have 2 containers of extra chili in my fridge.  Haha.  Go figure. This will be a fun girls night option.

Must remember to schedule a girls night. (But maybe end with a visit to my guy...cooking really is erotic.)
