A-Z Cooking Verbs & Pictures

Yáll are the best, We have a verb test every week, there are 264 verbs on the test and the instructor adds new verbs every two weeks. We can add as many verbs as we want for extra credit as long as they are spelled right and have the correct definition.

Last week I lost by 5 points, I missed one of my verbs on his list so that was one point off and I could only come up with 47 extra verbs, another gal Alex had 52 extra credit verbs....anyhoo..

How about helping me out with an A-Z Cooking Verb game and add pictures if you can..then I will print them all out and hang them in my kitchen to see all week and maybe next week I can have the best grade.

these are all verbs so they will end in "" ar", "er", or "ir" (okay verbs or kitchen items)

quemar - to burn alt text

And, for an explanation of how to make Catalán Creme, including how to appropriately burn the sugar on top...

Receta del libro Cocinar es fácil. Quemar la crema es una asignatura pendiente, para mí, desde siempre. En el principio de mi vida culinaria, utilizaba una pala de hierro que me daba unos disgustos... ahora, desde hace años, tengo un soplete, con el que no me acabo de entender. Debo estar llamada a más altos destinos...!!

Ingredientes:

1/2 litro de leche 4 yemas de huevo 125 grs. de azúcar 15 grs. de maicena la piel de un limón 1 palito de canela

Poner las yemas con el azúcar en un cazo, mezclar bien.

En otra cazuela hervir la leche junto con la piel de limón y la canela.

Añadir a las yemas le leche poco a poco y sin parar de remover con unas varillas. Añadir la maicena que previamente se ha desleído en un poco de leche fria.

Poner todo al fuego y remover constantemente hasta el punto que arranque el hervor, pero sin dejar de hierva. Retirarla del fuego y seguir removiendo unos segundos más, fuera del fuego.

Verter en los recipientes y dejarla enfriar del todo.

Si se quiere quemar, hacerlo 15 minutos antes de servirla, espolvoreando azúcar por encima y utilizando una pala de hierro o un soplete.
