In My Kitchen – February 2016

Hello, lovely people! Welcome to my little kitchen. 🙂 I’ve missed last month’s IMK as I was still adjusting with my time after the given additional working hours at my workplace. Anyway,  I am happy to be here once again as Maureen @ The Orgasmic Chef is hosting In My Kitchen series.

In my kitchen…

…is this ground coffee from the Philippines. I think this is our version of espresso powder as the smell is very close. I love this coffee a lot and I am having a cup of this almost everyday. 

In my kitchen…

…is a packet of Tablea de Cacao or chocolate tablet.

Now, saying that this is a packet of tablet, I am not saying that these are medicines. 😀 Of course, you know that they are not. These chocolate tablets are Philippine’s version of cocoa. You might ask what’s the difference between these tablets and the cocoa powder. These tablets contains something like a butter that when processed and turned into powder, the butter disappears. These are how they look –

I still haven’t used them, but I am thinking of turning them into Tsokolate, which is the Philippine version of hot chocolate. I am sure when I use them, I will share it to you. 😉

In my kitchen…

… are these goodies from Trader Joe’s which I got online. The cookies are all gone by now. 😀

In my kitchen…

…are cookie butters from Trader Joe’s, also I got them online. I love these and I am thinking of getting some again before they disappear.

In my kitchen…

…are these containers, given by my friend. They are not printed, but I love them because I can see what’s inside. 😀

In my kitchen…

…are these pretty little bowls. They were candle holders when I bought them, but I’ve thought of using them as a bowl when the candles have melted and gone because they are so pretty.

In my kitchen…

…is a scale. Finally. I really had no plan of getting one because I told myself that there are conversion charts, but sometimes, it’s really not a good day to get your head in pain just converting measurements… so I decided it’s time to get one and I must say that it is really, really useful. Good decision, Jhuls!!

In my kitchen…

…are these Filipino Coconut Macaroons which I baked to bring at my workplace and so I will have something to munch on when I get back home after an exhausting day. I still have three sitting in the same bowl. 😀 My container is currently occupied, so the poor little macaroons settled  for the bowl.

That’s all folks! 😉 I hope you enjoyed what you have seen and thank you for being with me.
