I can, but only when I want to

Why can't every day be like this when so, so good and tasty food arrives at our table? I am wondering if some magic happened or if that food got legs and walked by itself to our home and jumped onto our plates. Of course, it had to jump into a large pot first. A few carrots, a parsnip, half an onion, a few cloves of garlic, a bit of kohlrabi, and a few pieces of chicken that wouldn't go in the oven jumped into the warm pool. It is possible that it was a spa, with thermal waters.

These ingredients enjoyed the treatment for over an hour, got a bit of salt and voilà - a tasty chicken soup was ready. Thin noodles for soup, called in Spanish Cabello de ángel - angel's hair (not to be confused with the pumpkin jam that has the same name) were cooked for two minutes in a separate, small pot. On our plate, it made a divine combination with the hot soup. My son was delighted - how did you do that tasty dish? How did you manage it?

I didn't answer him then.

The asparagus came green, full of energy and with the desire to have an adventure in the kitchen. Well, they had to wait a bit while the green zucchini sauce took its place on the stove. It is true, I helped the zucchini to become ground and boiled for a short time. I also added a little flour to the heated oil (a small amount, a teaspoon), fried it shortly, added a little water and mixed it with zucchini. A playground for vegetables, this has been my kitchen today. I was over there, helping these vegetables do their thing and watching them enjoy their game. No doubt, this is a good life, if food is prepared this easily.

But it also happened that the potatoes flew into the oven tray, along with the rest of the chicken. They paid for themselves a session in solarium. As responsible ingredients, they were thinking about their skin. First, they applied on themselves a mixture of ground dried vegetables, a pinch of salt and olive oil. 90 minutes passed and I took the oven tray out of the solarium oven. The photo was taken at that exact moment:

When the oven was already hot... it had to be used for additional treats. A Strudel that came from Vienna, I mean it originated there. Probably it would be difficult for the thin, elastic dough to travel over to Spain in a few hours, together with its friends - apples, cinnamon, sugar and raisins.

The soup, meat, potatoes, zucchini sauce, asparagus and Apple strudel were all very delicious. We were in awe and the questions didn't stop. Why it can't be like this every day? Maybe because it is not Christmas every day? Or because the ingredients would not be this kind every day and prepare the lunch for us?

If not, then I can try to do my best and repeat similar kitchen adventures more often. Of course, I can, but only when I want to.

The only unfortunate thing in today's lunch was the fact that there was no more Baileys Irish cream in the bottle. Just one sip and the bottle fell drunk empty.

😊 only can, when we want it
In fact, never be easy on the kitchen for many ingredients. Too many cooking activity, but eating them just a quick moment 😅🤣 needed big energies for that

The Asparagus, looks tempting 😋

Hey happy holiday! ❤️🌲🌲🌲

Yes, sometimes we prepare the food for hours and then it disappears so quickly hahaha. Not fun. But when the ingredients decide to do the lunch by themselves, that is great then 😂

Thank you and happy holidays to you too 🤗

Well said, it's not every day that it's Christmas!

And also the theme of cooking when we feel like it and we want to .... Well, I love it, I have to take turns with my family... I don't cook... not me... not me and so we are...🤣

But that food looks delicious and even the bottle was enjoying it so much that it got drunk 🤣

Until you can take turns with your family, it is perfect. Either way, when you all want to cook and when no one is willing to do that hahaha, in that case just ask the ingredients to do it instead of you 😆

The bottle, uh, it has its own mind. I warned it not to drink too much 😂

Of course, it can happen in Phillippines too. The ingredients told me that secret, that they are not geographically limited. They get into action in those kitchens, all over the world, where they see that the real chef needs a bit of help with ideas and realization 😁

Thank you, and happy holidays to you too 😇

Hello Merry Christmas 😊 I'm sorry it took me so long to come by, I was on a family trip and I've just arrived hahaha, the oven has a special magic that makes our meals overflow flavor, just seeing the image inspires me to go for my trays hahaha, you whet my appetite. 😋

Merry Christmas @edwing357 and good morning from this side of the ocean :)

The meals from the oven indeed have that special flavour. My grandma had an oven that was heated by wood, that was the real thing! The food from that oven tasted even better. I hope you had a nice Christmas, enriched with tasty and creative dishes :)

Wow! the food made in firewood has an extraordinary flavor, I think nothing beats it, my grandmother cooked on stoves with firewood collected from the area and it was spectacular, they prepared smoked cheeses ... God what a time those were.
Here I am with my son, he is playing with Santa Claus gifts, while I'm thinking about making some breads hahaha.

Today your kitchen was also happy, but it seems that the one who enjoyed the most was your son, they are very grateful when we cook for them. They even have more appetite, mommy's food is tastier.
Isn't it? It is incredible what my daughter has eaten and enjoyed yesterday and today. I spend a lot of time in the kitchen, I like cooking and especially baking. You know how much my husband and I love soup.
Happy New Year's Eve.

My kitchen and we were happy, all together. I don't know how it will behave today, at the moment the morning coffee came to wake me up :)

It is incredible what my daughter has eaten and enjoyed yesterday and today.

Really? She has eaten a lot? I am sure she needed this affection from you and enjoyed the table full of delicious bites. ;)

While you were taking these photos, @ph1102 was starving and waiting for the food to come to the table XD Joking aside, it looks very nice but as you said, you can't always cook in the most perfect way. Then you wouldn't appreciate these special occasions, would you? Bon appetit!

The lunch today doesn't want to prepare itself 😂

Then you wouldn't appreciate these special occasions

Yes, you are right, I agree with you @incublus 😇

It's just like when a person has the heart to cook, then a person prepares the food of his choice and in the same way sits at home and eats it with pleasure.

Well, all the dishes especially the chicken soup seem divine. One thing I wanna say is that you wrote the entire recipe through a story which personally I liked a lot. I was reading a story but then I realized, I also got the recipe. I hope you had a nice Christmas Eve with family and friends. Happy Holiday dear and advance Happy New Year...

Take care and have a nice week...

hahaha, yes, I wrote the recipes through the story, as I am not a real chef, but I enjoyed this culinary experience I had a few days ago. Should repeat it soon :)

Thank you and I also wish you a happy new 2024 year, may it be full of peace and love for you 🤗
