At this point, I will just say when it come to food and cooking, I'm now tired or I should just rest my case, the state of the country is not making things interesting, someone upload on his status around last week that even the living is finding it hard to live, another said it has reach the point where expenses is far more than the income and I can't even agree less, now people just keep themselves indoor all because they know that outside is very expensive nowadays. I remember when I was indoor for like 3 weeks without stepping out to visit anyone, I only step out to buy what I want to eat for the day then back to my bed, then I decided to visit my friend just to clear the indoor migraine and boom he was like he wish to get something outside and I followed him, before I know it, I came back with like 2 nylon of junks, it was after I pay that I started blaming myself and was like why did I even step out, my friend was there laughing at me.
Yesterday was even worse because I did something worse, firstly to cook normal soup we have to spent like 3-4x of what we do spend before and it won't even last for 2days except you made it watery, during a convo on discord, someone said he now have a way of making stew without using scotch bonnet and tomatoes, I was kind of surprised since according to the person, it really tasted nice and I was kind of interested just to see how it will taste like. He was like, get dry hot pepper, boil it so it will be soft, then blend it well with normal tomato paste so it won't be that spicy and you are good to go with the cooking. Got out yesterday to get what I will use for this new stew and I couldn't get this dry hot pepper anywhere in my location because it is now cost too and most petty sellers aren't selling it like they use to, but I already brought fresh fish and I don't know what to do anymore.
Then the seller was like I can use tomato paste and powered dry pepper with spicey and it will work fine instead, I asked someone else and the reply was positive so I went home o thinking I have found something interesting, unlocking a new chef experience. I did it as I was told, boiled the fish, mixed the tomato paste and powered dry pepper and boom I poured it instead the palmoil on fire and started mixing. within 3mins, I was like "what the hell is this" because it wasn't giving stew color after adding spicey, the smell, the look and after tasting it, it tasted like ginger soup. The worst part was that the fish was looking like I poured coloring inside the stew (maybe the spicey caused it). It was the worst stew I ever made but can I do, I ate it like that with rice, pick all my fish part, ate and throw the mixed combo I made away
