Hi Telegram friends!
Just wanted to share with you a simple idea to reduce waste. 😎
During the soft lock down in Taiwan, we could only buy food in restaurants to take home. To reduce the packaging waste we bought some new food container boxes that can withstand high temperatures (about 100C). So the restaurants can put the food directly into our containers.
Now that the covid situation is better and we can eat out again, we are still taking empty boxes with us when we eat out.
That way we can pack any leftovers from the meal and reduce the packaging usually provided by the restaurants.
Hope you'll also start doing this if you eat out or order food from restaurants to take home.
It does take a bit of foresight and change of habits, but it's definitely worth it. 😁

💡 ⚖️ 🥙 #idea #scale #food #intake #meal #eat
Hi Telegram friends!
Recently we bought a new kitchen scale and I had an idea to experiment with.
I've started scaling my meals in a day at home to find out how much I eat. 😊
I know it's not really scientific to lump the whole dish together, but it gives me a ballpark number of how much food I need in order to feel full.
I think I used to overeat regularly in the past (don't we all? 😅) and think that by watching/scaling my food intake I can prevent that.
Besides finding out how much food I personally need for my daily activities I'm also reducing the amount of food we're buying (or wasting).
Imagine if everybody in the world would eat just enough to refill their daily burnt calories, then much less food would be wasted!
What do you think?
Do you tend to over-eat?

Hi Telegram-friends!
I'd like to share with you my long-time hobby (>2 years 😋): keeping kefir grains.
🔙 My interest was sparked many years ago when my mom was making yogurt by herself. In Taiwan (2019-ish?) I finally gave it a try and managed to make yogurt from bought yogurt and milk. But the quality would vary a lot and after a few batches it would eventually fail.
🎁 In 2020 my girlfriend got me some kefir grains and a kit (filter and wooden spoon) to make kefir yogurt with as a surprise gift.

Hi Telegram friends!
I never thought of myself as a bread-lover, but I noticed that the only food I miss when abroad is rye bread (Schwarzbrot) from Austria. 😃
I remember I used to bring a loaf to uni when I was living in Scotland. 😂
I finally decided to try and make it myself. 🥳
After some trail and error I think I have a successful method and it tastes just like home.
Now I bake it every week.
😋
I followed this recipe and used an air frier to bake it - hence the small buns.
If you're into baking or German sourdough rye bread, feel free to give it a try!
It's yummy and healthy. 😃
What's your favourite bread?

Hi Telegram friends!
It's been a busy summer. 😅
Let me share with you a new hobby/habit.
I never used to drink coffee - because I didn't like it much, thought it's not healthy and didn't want to get addicted to it/depend on it.
My wife had a habit of drinking coffee and usually I would just take a sip to taste if I felt like it.
Last year we got a moka pot (brikka) and a bean grinder and started to brew coffee at home. After trying out different beans, we preferred the fruity and acid flavor of light roasts and I started to have a small cup when my wife would have a coffee - which I quite enjoyed.
Only recently, we learned more about brewing coffee (through youtube) and I must say that it's quite fascinating. It's both science and an art / skill and the taste can change quite a bit depending on the beans, your equipment and how you prepare or brew the coffee.
I became the main coffee brewer at home and also share half of the coffee with my wife. 😊
Regarding our method: We have an induction plate and don't heat up the water first, despite many youtubers recommending it. I heat it on a slow heat to slowly increase the temperature and when it's hot enough (coffee started to brew) I turn off the stove, but keep the pot on the plate to use the remaining heat.
We have it 3-4 times a week and it has become a relaxing and enjoyable habit now.
It also turns out to be cheaper than store bought coffee or coffee from convenience stores. 😊
Do you have a habit of drinking coffee? Or do you brew your own coffee?
