🇦🇹BLACKOUT WARNING IN AUSTRIA | OUR PRECAUTIONS & PREPARATIONS FOR SURVIVAL EP1

👩‍🍳Blackout – a widespread, possibly even Europe-wide power failure. Recently, the Austrian Defence Minister warns the public of possible BLACKOUT in the near future. Nobody knows when it will happen and how long it will take place. This was widespread since last year. But now I think it is about time to take precautions or should I say prepared awareness must take place right now. Hubby and I started today getting some stuff that we think we need. And I started to cook some foodstuff from our freezer to get rid of it and later on I’m gonna off the refrigerator. This can also help us to save some money because a too huge refrigerator for two people is too much and besides the electricity bill nowadays is too pricey. A sort of survival in an emergency situation will be our food supplies and water. Our precautions and preparations for survival in case it will take too long.

🇦🇹🇵🇭SATURDAY, DECEMBER 24 NOCHEBUENA 2022 

👩‍🍳Our Nochebuena last Christmas 2022, with my two kids Ronald-Louis and Diana-Grace. Our dogs got presents too from my daughter. I think they’re happy too. I decided to have a raclette or used it for my version of samgyeopsal. Moet for Champagne and Heineken beer for hubby. Samgyeopsal ➡️ is a popular Korean dish. Samgyeopsal is more or less a thinly sliced pork belly and is usually fried with garlic. Here I added beef meat and shrimp. And cheese for raclette with chili. Pork is not good for hypertension. 🙈😅Recipe yields for five persons. We also had kimchi and radish too. The sauce is all homemade. For the sauce recipe please check out here.⬇️

🇮🇳FENUGREEK LEAVES COOKED IN MONGO(MUNG BEAN) | KASURI METHI OF INDIA

👩‍🍳Cooking Fenugreek leaves which I added to mung bean or mongo. But there is some side effect of fenugreek leaves but also good for health. It has been said that large doses may cause a harmful drop in blood sugar. Fenugreek can cause allergic reactions in some people. Which I found good for diabetics like me. Because one cup of methi leaves gives only 13 calories making it a good choice for those controlling their calorie intake. Rich in Vitamin K which is good for bone metabolism. Dried fenugreek leaves are known as Kasuri methi in India. It is also rich in dietary fiber. Today I cook mung bean with this and with smoked mackerel. For a change add the usual leafy green vegetable that we Filipinos know. Like Alugbati (vine spinach), ampalaya (Bitter melon leaves), even Camote Tops (talbos ng kamote), and spinach.

🌏🇵🇭TEMPURA STUFF AND VEGGIES WITH SHRIMP👩🏻‍🍳iCook

👩‍🍳Tempura batter is very easy and versatile for dipping and deep-frying fruits, meats, and vegetables. Just like here, using tempura for chicken spam and surimi. Surimi is a solid mass of minced fish. About 900 years ago it was discovered in Japan that minced fish, cooked and jellied with sugar, has a longer shelf life. More info about surimi, the basic substance for seafood imitations is surimi, a protein mass made from fish. This is salted and solidified by heat with the addition of egg white or starch. Anyway, I also cooked vegetables with shrimp. I was complaining all the way while cooking because the vegetables produce liquid but it turned out good.

YOU NEED…….

1 pack Surimi, Crab Sticks

1 Can Chicken Spam

1 pack of Roasted Seaweeds

Tempura Batter

4 cakes of Tofu

Vegetable Oil for frying

FOR SHRIMP VEGGIES:

100g Beans Sprout, Togue

1 Sweet Potato, small purple

Napa Cabbage

1/4 head Cabbage

300g Shrimps

4 cloves Garlic

2tbsps. Soy Sauce

2tbsps. Oyster Sauce

👩‍🍳Summer is here in Vienna.🇦🇹 A salad for everyone. here is my mixed green salad such as; baby spinach, arugula, and endive salad. Topped with vegan fillet marinated, without meat. Vegan products are based on pea and wheat protein in the style of a chicken fillet. No soybean, no meat. Salad dressing is a mixture of glaze and balsamic vinegar and a bit of salt. I even don’t need salt, because the sauce alone was enough. Perfect dinner for me on this hot summer night in the city.

👩‍🍳In earlier times, visitors to the park had to pay a fee for staying in the armchairs, which was demanded by the so-called armchair women. This visitor service, run by a private company, ended in 1956 but now not anymore. The gilded bronze statue of Johann Strauss son in the Stadtpark is one of Vienna’s best-known and most photographed monuments. In this video, there are other monuments, for example by Franz Schubert, Robert Stolz and Hans Makart.
