Who says making pasta itself was troublesome. Rather than buying pasta that cost up to hundreds of thousands in the supermarket, try to make themselves better. “It is not difficult really. Just need flour, eggs, and butter,” says Executive Chef Red Sapori, Giuliano Berta, in Italian Cooking Lessons at the Istituto Italiano di Cultura Jakarta, recently.

How to make it is not much different from making dough of martabak (a kind of traditional food from Indonesia). First of all, heat one tablespoon of butter until melted. After that, mix with flour and eggs. “The comparison is one to one,” said Giuliano. When used 100 grams of flour, add one egg. When used 300 grams, then mix with three eggs.

All the material is stirred by hand until you get the smooth dough. “Then, let the dough for one hour with the wrapped in plastic wrap,” he explained. When it’s long enough, roll the dough with wooden rollers until the desired thickness. “Roll up thin. However, do not be too thin or too thick even,” he said.

After that, the dough is live cut with special tools portable pasta maker. This tool is easy to get in many cakes shops that sell kitchen supplies. “Brand is the standard used is Ampia Pasta Machine,” said Giuliano. With these tools, we can make pasta with a variety of forms. Starting from the lasagna, tagliatelle, pappardelle, until ravioli. In his native Italy, there are more than 650 types of pasta and almost every year created a new form.

When you understand how to make pasta, you can continue to make the other various kinds of pasta a la Bolognese. For example, lasagna Bolognese or spaghetti ala Bolognese style. “These foods are not necessarily familiar by Indonesian people. However, most people known that the Bolognese is the name of a town in Italy,” he said.

Bolognese sauce recipe was first introduced in 1982 by a delegation of Accademia Italiana Della cucina. Beginning of the traditional Bolognese sauce recipe is beef, pancetta, onions, carrots, celery, tomato sauce, beef broth, white wine, and milk or cream. At certain moments, some people also add a traditional Bolognese sauce pork or chicken liver, rabbit, and geese in his Bolognese sauce.

But now, the Italian people more often use a simple recipe. Only use one type of meat, a little carrot, and celery. Now they also use butter and olive oil when sauteing soffritto simultaneously consisting of celery, carrots, and onions. Mushrooms prosciutto, mortadella, or porcini fresh also added to the sauce. In addition, they are now more likely to use milk for cooking every day, rather than a cream that is usually used in traditional Bolognese sauce recipe.

Although in the making there are ingredients that are prohibited by religion, you do not need to be confused. Without the use of pork and wine sauce is not a problem, you can make with or without it. “It will remain good,” he said.

Not like the most people, Gualiano prefer to use ground beef on homemade lasagna. Meat was roasted in advance with a little olive oil in a skillet. Add salt and pepper to strengthen the flavor.

Then, in another skillet, saute onion, celery, carrots, and two cloves of garlic on medium heat for three minutes. If you do not want to add wine, broth mix it with minced meat. Then, add the crushed tomatoes and salt. Then, boil to cook for 30 minutes. Add a little rosemary in cooking. “But, do not mostly due to bitter taste,” he said. Well, let’s try it in your own kitchen to make your own deliciose pasta!

You may want to be able to slip into your favorite clothes for the holiday season, but getting healthy before the holidays is difficult. Most people have increasingly hectic schedules in the months and weeks leading up to the holidays, and stores as well as events are usually stocked with high fat, high sugar foods that make it hard to stick to a healthy diet. Here’s how you can stay healthy and maybe even drop a few pounds before the holidays get here:

1. Find extra time to exercise. It may seem like an impossible task, but all you need to do is multitask. Consider everything you do during an average week, and consider which activities you can combine with exercise. For example, if you have to return phone calls as part of your job, you may be able to return those phone calls while doing gentle stretches or a slow walk around a track. If you like to read, you can probably read on a treadmill. If you want to spend time with your friends and family, why not challenge them to a skating race or to some other physical activity? If you need to throw a party consider a skating party or ski party that gets everyone moving.
2. Keep healthy snacks on hand to avoid the inevitable piles of candy and high-fat snacks that seem to be everywhere at this time of year. Keep wholesale nuts, trail mixes, and other healthy snacks in small containers at your office, in your car, and in your briefcase. It will be much easier to reach for a healthy alternative when it’s handy and when it’s delicious. Check out Nutstop.com for a huge selection of healthy and delicious snacks that you can even buy in prepackaged snack packs and one hundred calorie packs that make it easy for you to take care of sizing portions.
3. Keep a food journal. Journal what you’re eating, how much, and how often you exercise. Having to write it down makes you more accountable and less likely to overindulge.
4. Go for healthy snacks before you leave for an event where you know there will be lots of rich foods. Rather than overindulge at every event, eat some fiber-rich dried fruit or other healthy snacks before you leave. You’ll be less hungry, and less likely to eat everything in your path. Once you get to the event, take a look at all the food options and select one or two small treats that you can enjoy throughout the evening.
