Top food being whipped up during lockdown

Restaurant Food

Accessibility to restaurant-standard food may have diminished by the nation’s appetite for adventurous food that looks and tastes good certainly hasn’t.

As the winding queues and swift business at takeaways that have been able to open have shown the UK is a country that loves its food.

Foodies used to tucking into dishes from across the world and having their favourite coffee on the go everyday have certainly shown their willingness to adapt.

And with Instagram providing the perfect platform to showcase culinary endeavours, food has certainly remained forefront in our hearts, minds and social media feeds.

Just like trends in TV have caught on through endless social networking so have certain foods.

Dalgona coffee

The British love affair with coffee shops has been a strong one. It is hard to believe there was ever a time when independent coffee shops and major chains did not line our streets.

Fabulous coffee has certainly been missed. Not everyone has a homestyle barista set-up, but Dalgona coffee lets anyone make the most of a few staple ingredients.

Delicious cold, especially in this warm weather we are having, or even hot, Dalgona coffee combines, sugar, instant coffee, water and milk for a seriously good-looking drink, that tastes pretty good too.

Banana Bread

We are nothing if not resourceful in times of need and with certain staple baking ingredients in short supply – namely dried yeast – banana bread has had its moment to shine. It’s easy to make, tastes fantastic and uses up bananas that are past their best, so the popularity of banana bread is clear. There is a good reason it was the most searched recipe of lockdown.

Pizza dough

We love our pizzas, that’s for sure, and the dearth of flour in the shops is testament to the fact that we are willing to work to still get a taste of our favourite dishes. With restaurants shut, home chefs have been busy rustling up pizza bases from scratch.

Well with all this time on our hands we might as well put it to good use – and lots of keen bakers certainly did that by mastering the art of making sourdough bread. Again, no yeast is required as you effectively create your own with the sourdough starter. With the time to watch and nurture your starter and the resulting bread – sourdough has become a real hit with more adventurous home bakers wanting to show off their skills during lockdown.

Chocolate brownies

Comfort food has understandably been popular across the board while the population adjusts to life under lockdown. Brownies with their delectable, chocolatey gooiness have topped the charts when it comes to food that makes us feel better.

Easy to make, delicious and indulgent, brownies are a hit with people of all ages, so unsurprisingly recipes for this favourite dessert have been in high demand on Google.

With people looking for ways to take their minds off the world outside and to make the most of their time indoors, the kitchen has definitely delivered.

Old hands in the kitchen and first-time bakers have risen to the challenge to make the most of the extra time at home by polishing the cooking skills.

When patients think of orthodontic treatments, they're commonly preoccupied with some of the much less appealing adverse effects. They're so stressed about exactly how they will certainly look and also just how they will eat that they lose out on some of the positive aspects of braces. The noticeable silver lining effect of obtaining braces is that you'll be entrusted a spectacular smile. There are a couple of various other unanticipated side effects which are worthy of some attention. Do I require braces? You may be asking yourself if it is serious enough to warrant therapy if your teeth are misaligned. In cases with only tiny blemishes, you might find it much faster and much less intrusive to check out veneers or composite bonding. Dental braces are required in the following scenarios: - Your teeth are uneven or crowded - Your jaw makes a clicking noise or hurts when you open and close your mouth - You usually bite your cheeks. - You battle to chew food due to a jaw imbal...

Is poor reception always down to the digital TV aerial?

Image
Just imagine you’ve looked forward to slumping down on the sofa and relaxing in front of your favourite programme but as you turn the TV on all you can see is a series of distorted blocks. Annoying isn’t it? And sometimes it not just the picture – the sound can be missing, the picture may be missing entirely or interference is making whatever sound there is incomprehensible. Poor TV reception is enough to ruin your day, however, a poor picture and poor sound is not always down to a fault with your aerial. In fact, with the varied ways through which we watch television now, the cause of the poor picture, or complete lack of it could be down to a number of factors. Causes of poor reception – it’s not always the digital TV aerial! In fact, the cause of poor reception is not often the digital TV aerial and more likely a problem with the signal reaching the set. There are a number of factors that can affect the signal getting to your television that have nothing whatsoever to do with the eq...
