Cooking and Time Management
By OEA, Guest Writer.
To be blunt, to cook you need time. To cook special delicacies like ekwang, you need time and skills. If you do cook for a family, alongside some other work, you need skills and wisdom. I hear the word “efficient” in my mind. It has something to do with how you plan and utilise every single minute. Some people do instinctively while others write down a timetable. Whatever increases your efficiency sits on the sturdy chair of time management.
African dishes, especially cooked with traditional methods, are typically not economical with time. The busy cook will soon discover, forced by shrinking times, how to buy in bulk, prepare and stock the different units that go into the delicacies that birth out of the sometimes black, sometimes white pots. The use of modern technologies as economies will allow, and that is no secret, considerably save time.
Good food means proper planning, prepping and execution. It is something we make sure to capture and do for you at Just Food. We give you the final unit of ekwang, pre-wrapped, healthy, tasty, fresh and time-saving, to put in the pot.
We would even love to cook it for you if you gave us a date!
