Random Tip

A tip for people who have way too much time on their hands.

If you want to make your ice cubes really clear, boil the water for several minutes before gently pouring it into the trays. This will rid the water of any air that had been dissolved in the water. An alternative method would be to use pure distilled water.

Welcome to Gastronomer!
The gastronomer website was initially created to provide cooking advice for bachelors, students, and daft homemakers. Since that time I've come to realize something that you may find of vital importance.  If, after your best efforts, you realize that you are incapable of cooking, give up.

Really, give up. There is plenty of tasty food out there requiring a minimum of preparation--finding those foods may turn out to be your proper course of action--especially if you are currently in the habit of foisting such food off onto guests. Especially guests with a wicked sense of humour and a blog.

But for those of you not yet at the giving up stage, the Gastronomer site endeavors to dole out food advice from shopping for groceries at the supermarket, to cooking gourmet meals in your kitchen.

And since some of you may not yet have a kitchen, we run through the basics of setting up your kitchen, detailing the utensils (pots, pans, knives, etc.) you will need. An herb and spice section should help acquaint you with the herbs and spices to stock in your kitchen. And there are tips on baking, frying, throwing a dinner party, and some advice on food related dating. In sum, it is a light hearted journey into the culinary world of epicurean delights.
