Have you ever tasted extreme food?

Have you ever tasted extreme food before? Today we'll talk about extreme food. There are so many extreme food in this world. Here we start...

In America, there are extreme food called Tiram Rocky Mountain is made from testis of cow.

Tiram Rocky Mountain 

Then we have plasenta. People eat mamal's plasenta to prevent depression postpartum and the time near the birth. And for the sweet things we have Ant Candy, candy that is contained ants. I don't know why people made that and for what people eat ant.... :s 

Now we move to Africa. They eat cow's blood. They took the blood without kill the cow, just took blood from the nerve.  

In Europe, they have Black Pudding that is made from blood and lard. They also have Casu Marzu. This is goat's milk with full of insect's larva. For the extreme drink, they have Absinth with alcohol more than 74%. 

In Asia, they have Doh Khileh. This is salad with steamed pig's brain for the garnish (india). In China, they have a machine that sells living crab. This is so weird but quite interesting, so people don't have to queue in the market to buy crabs. 

Indonesia have some food that people think it's extreme. Bothok Tawon, Lawar Bali, Rujak Cingur, etc. 

From the business point of view, I think extreme food can be quite interesting for the business. Some people don't like it, but it doesn't mean everyone don't like it. There are some people will spend their money to feel the extreme one. I think I may sell drinks that is contained with alcohol more than 60%. Because in Indonesia, there are nothing like this before. And I think it works.

Frozen Dessert

Who loves Ice cream? I’m sure most of you love ice cream.Today we’re gonna talk about Frozen Dessert. It has so many kind of variants. So let’s start with the definition of them..

Frozen Dessert is made from frozen liquid that is combined with fruits or others ingredients  to add more flavor. The main ingredients to make Frozen Dessert are sugar, milk, coloring and alcohol.

The history of Frozen Dessert is started by the habit of Russian people who  eats snow combined with wine. As the time goes by, then Arab found the real ice cream. And since the 15th century, ice cream is known by people around the world. 

There are 3 types of Frozen Dessert, Flavored water, Fruit Purees and Semi-Freddo. Flavored water it made from shaved ice as the main ingredient. This Ice can be found most in Hawaii. For example for this Flavored Ice are Snow Ice (America), Kakigori (Japan), Patbingsu (Korea), etc.

Snow Ice Cream

You can make Snow Ice Cream from Snow or shaved ice then flavored it. It's very simple and really yummy, you can see the recipe here: Snow Ice Cream

Fruit Purees is known as Sorbet. For example are Strawberry Sorbet, Granita (most of them are Lemon), Spoom (foamed sorbet), etc. And the last is Semi-Freddo, for example is Mousse like Panna Cotta, etc. 

Strawberry Sorbet

Sorbet is very easy to make, yummy and healthy. Because it used the real fruits then blend it. Some people made Sorbet with Sorbet Machine, but don't worry for you who doesn't have that machine you can check this recipe: Strawberry Sorbet without Sorbet Machine

Today i just know, that there’s ice cream named Kulfi based on Arab. Kulfi is like the common ice cream, but the flavor are came from the spices (kapulaga, cinnamon, etc). I’m not sure about the flavor(because i never taste it before) but i think it will taste good. 

From the business point of view, i may open a stall that sells ice cream just like Kulfi. But i will add more milk into them to get the nice taste for Indonesian. It will served in colorful cone to make it more beautiful.

Dipping and Dressing Sauce

Do you know what’s the differences between  Dipping Sauce and Dressing Sauce? Well, today we’re gonna talk about the definition of sauce, type of sauce, the differences, etc. Here we start...

Sauce is a thicked liquid that is combined with spices. It’s to increase the value of nutrient, increase flavor, increase humidity and to make the food more beautiful.  There are 5 things to thinken your sauce: roux, Beuree Mennie, Cream and Flour, Flour, Blood and Bread Crumbs. Roux is made from cooked butter/margarine/vegetable oil/lard combined with flour. Beuree Mennie is similar to roux, but there’s no heat in the method of cooking. 

There are 3 groups of sauce from it’s: color, temperature, and ingredients. There are 2 types of sauces devided from its color: white sauce and brown sauce. Devided from its temperature: cold sauce and hot sauce. Devided from its ingredients: meat, oil and butter.

Brown Sauce 

or known as demiglace is made from the fried meat to get the brown color. It used to be cooked about 8-10hours with a low heat to make it glace. But now people make it more simple, it only takes about an hour to make the sauce. Here's the recipe: Quick Brown Sauce
Brown Sauce can be devided into Bordelaise Sauce, Robert Sauce, Mushroom Sauce and Diable Sauce.

Tomato Sauce 

is made from tomato puree, tomato paste and spices. It can be devided into Portugiese Sauce (tomato sauce + garlic), Spanish Sauce and Creole Sauce (tomato sauce + green pepper + thyme+ garlic +onion + celery). Recipe: tomato sauce recipe

French Dressing 

can be devided into English mustard Dressing (French Dressing + english mustard), French mustard Dressing(French Dressing + french mustard) and Miller Dressing. Recipe: dressing recipe

The main differences between dipping sauce and dressing sauce  is the consistency. Dipping Sauce is thicker, for example cheese sauce. Dressing Sauce is emulsion of oil and vinegar, it’s thinner. 

From the business point of view, i may make a shop that sells snacks and chips like potato chips, tortilla chips, etc. We also provides many sauces about 10-20 sauces. I may sell them as platter (for 2-3people/platter). One platter containing 2 types of snacks/chips and 5 types of sauce. The contain depends on what people chose.

Tortila Land

This time i’m gonna share you about Tortila. Tortila is a flat bread without yeast that usually is made from corn or wheat. There are 2 types of Tortila, Corn Tortila and Flour Tortila. 

Corn Tortila is made from nextamalized corn (Nextamalized= a corn is placed in the lemon water for some times to separated the corn from its skin. Tortila Corn is believed came from North America and there’s a fact that the tortila does exist before Spanish came and gave the ‘Tortila’ name because it looks like their traditional Omelet. People in Mexico usually make the Corn Chips from the Corn Tortila, that is known as Nachos. The texture of corn tortila is harder than wheat’s. 

Tortila Wheat is an inovation after flour are introduced by Spanish. Tortila Wheat is known as a bread without yeast that is flatten and cooked just like Tortila Corn. Tortila is normaly about 6-30cms depends on the region. 

There are some food made from tortila.

Enchilada 

is tortila corn that is rolled. People usually eat them with chili pepper sauce and served with beans and spinach rice.

Cheese

Cheese are made from milk that is fermented. It's fermented by enzyme called Rennet. 

Cheese are invented in 800BC. Since the Nomeden time, people kept the milk in a container. But people forgot about the milk, then the milk transformed to clump. That clump is cheese. 

There are 5 steps to make a cheese: 
1. Take the milk
2. Keep in the container 
3. Heat them
4. Add rennet enzyme
5. Heat again, stir and mold

The variations of cheese are influenced by it's milk, cutting method and the other factors.
The variations of cheese are classified by the texture, cooking process, skin, country, etc.  

There are some benefits about cheese, good for muscle and metabolism, rich of vitamin A, good for bone and etc.But don't eat too much cheese, because you might in trouble. Too much cheese will increase your cholesterol, impotent and etc.

The best way to keep you cheese is by keep it in refrigerator (soft cheese), wrapped it then leave it in the room temperature (hard cheese) or you can just remain in the salty water. 

There are 9 unique facts about cheese: 
1. The biggest population that ate cheese is in Yunani. It's about 27kg/person in a year.
2. People in USA made the biggest selling of cheese. 
3. For the best taste, you should make cheese in the room temperature.
