[QUOTE="AndBreathe, post: 908895, member: 88961"] When MrB is away, and I am solely responsible for cooking for myself (yes, I am very spoiled when he's around!), I find I want to keep trying new things, to keep my interest up. Some have been stunning successes, and typically, some less so, but I've never had anything I've had to fast-forward to the bin. MrB loves all the chopping, and for him the ritual of starting the meal prep with chopping garlic, chilli and whatever is a great pleasure. For me, I neither have the same level of knife skills as he does, nor do I have that mindset, so for me, the game changers are the stash of lazy jars and tubes in the fridge. I have lazy garlic, ginger, lemon grass, basil, sage, coriander, mint, wasabi and so on. And the spice racks are bulging these days. They save so much time, and importantly for me, it means nothing need be bland, if I want a bit of spice or flavour. As most of these things can be picked up for around £1 a piece, building up the collection over time can be painless, and these days, we never, ever find ourselves throwing our withered garlic, or shrivelled ginger.
