Medlar seeds is new to me. Must search on the Net to get more details. Brown rice is a staple in our household. We pressure cook the rice. I have never tried brown rice for other than eating it with curries. Must try out what you have suggested with something else as medlar seeds are not available here.

So far I have kept cheese as company to scrambled eggs. Having a different companion as you have suggested will surely break the monotony.

The recipe is good.
Eating veggies can maintain our body health. But sometimes, there are veggies that are not tasty or taste bad. So, this recipe helps to make veggies more exciting to eat.

We call it French bread but do not use a cookie cutter. We dip the stuff in milk to which a flavouring and sugar is added.
Cookie cutting is good where there are kids.

It is an easy and nice technique for lazy women who sleep more and awake less early in the morning. It is most useful for kids but always for older and elder. I think cookie cutter method will make women lay and work shirkers in life.

Today’s women are lazy and want ease on bed doing nothing all day thus she falls in mysterious diseases because every actin has its own reaction. I think it is the result of no hard working all day. Making and using life force is the hobby of such women.

Always eat ground food that remains all day in your stomach burning like candle all day to warm up the the whole body.

Your family must be truly blessed with the type of dishes you churn out for them. This recipe is one such. Not many would cook such varieties as you do. Kudos to you.

This is my all-time fave and I never fail to have it when I visit Swensen’s. That is by far the best Black Pepper Seafood Spaghetti I’ve ever had. Oh well, it isn’t a common dish that can be found in most pasta places so not many for me to compare with. But still, I think Swensen’s rendition is really good. Just thinking about it makes me drool……

Black pepper sauce, teriyaki sauce, sweet and sour sauce, thai sweet chilli sauce are some of my fave sauces. Mr Tan always says that I’m eating the sauce more than the food itself. I like to think that the sauce makes the food even more delish!

This is very similar to Black Pepper Seafood Udon, just that I’m using spaghetti and didn’t add in any eggs to it. Also cut down on the sauces to make it a little less fattening (trying to deceive myself). I love both dishes so they’ll be taking turns to show up at my dinner table. 🙂

Black pepper (Piper nigrum), as you know, is considered as an all-purpose seasoning of the universe. In fact, it is regarded as the world’s most traded spice.

Recently, several three-star restaurants in Europe, especially at the state of Monaco, have been using this seasoning. It became very popular because of its ability to enhance the flavors of dishes and make it more appetizing.

In recent years, research studies show that black pepper contains potent substances that possess healing prowess.

Indeed, black pepper has been used by the ancients in Traditional Chinese Medicine. The Chinese must have vital reasons in using black pepper as a medicinal herb. Piperine, an alkaloid that gives the sharp and pungent taste of black pepper is responsible for its many health benefits.

Here are some of the most beneficial health effects of black pepper:

improves blood circulation
promotes mental clarity
improves digestion
it is both an anti-oxidant and anti-bacterial
it is a good source of manganese, iron, and chromium
improves the body’s ability to absorb vitamins and nutrients from foods
helps treat fatigue and tiredness
stimulates appetite
lowers blood pressure

Now, the use of black pepper is booming in many restaurants in Europe. Black pepper is so widely used as it can be applied on almost all kinds of delicacies such as cakes, meats, fish, spaghettis, pickles, dressings, soups, and so on. You just name it and black pepper will give a unique special aroma and taste to your meals.

I found it very easy to bond with my newborns. Maintaining that bond as they got older, especially when they made it into their teen years? WOW! Super hard! The outside influences are like monsters!

Nature bonds a mother and the baby. It is a natural instinct. Just look how a baby behaves even the moment it is born. It will give out its first cry. It will smile. It knows how to suck the milk. The list is endless.
