Lesser known budget cooking tips
So many budget cooking tips are just things like “eat less meat!” and “only buy what you need!” and “buy the supermarket own brand!”
This advice is obvious, and most people looking for budget cooking advice are already doing it. In this post I will write some lesser known tips which are likely to give better results.
1. The cheapest way to get carbs is to make your own bread. The quickest way to do this is to make flatbreads. All you need is some flour (currently 69p for 1.5kg at Aldi; you only need like 50g at once), a pinch of salt (negligible money), and water from the tap. Make a dough (adjust flour and water until it is dough-like), knead until stretchy, leave it to rest for a bit (not essential step, can be skipped), roll/stretch it into a flatbread shape, and fry it in a dry frying pan for a minute or two on each side.
This may be more effort than buying bread, but it’s a fun thing to try if you happen to have a bit more time than money.
2. The cheapest way to get herbs is to forage them. For example, go to a churchyard and you’ll find loads of rosemary. Go around where you live, smell the plants, take pictures, look them up to see if you can eat them, and if so, eat them. (You can also get your very own rosemary bush by propagating a cutting. Easy to do, if slow. Look up directions online!)
3. Second cheapest way to get herbs - grow them. Around autumn or winter, go to a garden centre, and buy a packet of seeds reduced to clear. I got a huge pack of parsley seeds for 30p! Now have parsley growing out my ears. This is only cheap if you have access to soil though. You can also re-pot the potted herbs from supermarkets - hoping everyone saw that tiktok of the guy saying the reason they always die quickly is they are too many plants cramped together in too small a pot. 
As for growing other stuff, it only helps you save on groceries if you have the space to do it large-scale. But it’s fun so do it anyway. (This tip was quite well known but i’m including it in order to propagandise gardening)
4. Cooking bacon is often mentioned as the cheapest meat (It’s about £1/kg i think). However I’ve never seen that in the shops. What I have seen is a kg of frozen sausages from tesco for about £1.50. This is excellent value even if you consider that they’re only 42% meat. 
The cheapest fish is basa (catfish), and don’t listen to the haters: it’s delicious in both taste and texture (and £1.79 for 3 frozen filets from ALDI right now). 
5. Another uncommonly mentioned cheap meat is chicken paste. Or fish paste. It’s 42p for a little jar that contains a lot of protein! It gives me the shivers but I think it’s worth promoting more widely. 
On the other hand, one which doesn’t give me the shivers and which is great value protein is mini pork pies - these are very frequently reduced to clear in smaller supermarkets.
6. The cheapest vegetables are still carrots and potatoes, and the cheapest fruit is still bananas. However, the price of bananas has increased, so now if other fruits are on a good offer, it’s possible for them to be cheaper than the 18p per fruit which bananas now cost. Have seen apples at this price. 
7. Don’t buy things for the store cupboard. I’m always tempted to buy in advance stuff like cereal and tea and pasta and rice and tins. However, having stuff in the cupboard doesn’t seem to save money on future shops at all. Even if I’m buying multiple e.g. boxes of cereal because they’re on offer. The reality is that I just eat a lot more cereal when I have more in the house.
I think it’s helpful to have to use up all the food you bought last week before you go on next week’s shop. This often compels you to have a random using-up dinner, which is always a good idea. Pay no heed to conventional ideas of which foods go together.
8. An alternative to sweets when you’re feeling snacky: make some buttercream with margarine and icing sugar, put it in the fridge or freezer, and enjoy. Can also add cocoa powder to make chocolate buttercream. Super sweet and way cheaper for the amount you can get out of a box of icing sugar. 
Instead of buying baked goods, make cookies. Similarly, instead of buying cereal bars, make flapjacks. 
9. The only food I’ve had to throw away in the last year has been mushrooms that have gone mouldy quicker than I anticipated. Watch out for those sneaky blighters. 
10. If you are a porridge enjoyer, and you enjoy your porridge with milk, then use whole milk rather than semi-skimmed. You can replace the amount of semi-skimmed milk you would use with half the amount of whole milk, topped up with water, and get a porridge with the same level of creaminess. 
The same applies for white sauce/cheese sauce for pasta bake. Doesn’t apply for milk to drink on its own though (watered down whole milk does NOT taste like semi skimmed, it tastes like watered down whole milk). 
Same principle also applies for cheese (the principle being ‘semi-skimmed and whole milk are the same price’; so too are mature and extra-mature cheddars). Buy the strongest possible cheese to add to cheese sauces and pasta bake, as you will need to add less for more flavour. 
Of everything I’ve mentioned in this tip, only the porridge milk substitute has saved me money, as when I was doing this I ate porridge every day and measured how much milk I used. The other examples are extensions of the principle which I can’t guarantee would save money in practice. 
Having porridge for breakfast is also a very good idea when it comes to saving money as it fills you up for pennies. You knew that though.
11. Cheap meals generally take forms like:
- cheesy pasta bake with one vegetable in it (e.g. broccoli, peas, sweetcorn)
- lentil stew with one vegetable in it (e.g. carrots, peppers, spinach)
- rice with a single vegetable stir-fried (e.g. mushrooms, aubergine, reduced-to-clear 30p stir-fry veg bag)
- rice and beans (check out jack monroe’s chilli)
I save most money when I’m mainly eating this kind of thing.
Also some people don’t realise that you can cook rice in a saucepan just like you cook pasta. It is not at all tricky. 
12. Leftovers are your friend if and only if you have the willpower to avoid eating them for breakfast or midnight snack. Otherwise they are your ENEMY!
13. Don’t buy drinks (apart from tea bags and squash). Fresh juice and smoothies will lead you astray. 
I will consider this post my repository of knowledge and may add to it.

Is tilapia a decent fish to eat? It's the cheapest fish at my grocery store and it's a bottom feeder that literally eats doodoo feces
Personally I avoid all bottom feeder fish as well as filter feeders like shrimp mussels etc. when I say fish I don’t even mean seafood I mean fish, and I try to stick with fish that aren’t bottom feeder. again it’s about weighing pros and cons. the pros of fish usually outweigh the cons of eating fish, but there is a reason things like tilapia and basa (pangasius, catfish) are cheap fish - cause what they eat is garbage (literally) and that directly affects their growth. you are what u eat and this applies to the meat we eat too
if you want some cheaper fish (I know tuna, salmon, trout) can be pricy, try sardines, anchovies, and mackerel

• Fish - any fish works here except for lean fish such as tuna and swordfish as they tend to dry out. Here is cod, but feel free to use catfish, pollock, basa, halibut, haddock, hake, ling, or any whitefish.
• Breadcrumbs - use dry breadcrumbs and the key to extra crispy golden finger sticks is to use toasted breadcrumbs. To make your own homemade breadcrumbs, place stale bread in a food processor until coarsely ground then toast on a sheet pan in the oven at 280F (140C) for 15-20 minutes turning halfway through.
•Flour - use all-purpose flour, always season it with salt and pepper and any other seasonings that you like. Dredge the fish in flour, then shake off any excess flour before dipping in eggs.
• Eggs.
𝙈𝙚𝙩𝙝𝙤𝙙
If using frozen fish, thaw completely before using.
1) Season the fish with salt, and let it sit for at least 20-30 minutes (up to 1 hour). This will help to extract the moisture from the fish and make it firmer for crispy fish sticks. It’s also your chance to season the fish before breading.
2) Season the flour with salt and pepper, and you can do the same with the breadcrumbs. Also feel free to add other seasonings such as garlic powder, onion powder, chili powder, and smoked paprika. Or choose any aromatics that you like, I love adding fresh coriander.
3) Using the dry and wet hand method, dredge the fish in flour, and shake off any excess flour. Then dip in egg, and coat with breadcrumbs. To learn more about the ‘dry hand’ that works with the flour, and breadcrumbs, and the ‘wet hand’ to work with the eggs and avoid getting the breading to stick to your hands and cause a mess.
4) Once the fish fingers are thoroughly coated, place them in the Air Fryer basket, make sure that they’re not overlapping. You can spray them lightly with oil for extra crispiness and color then Air Fry at 400F (200C) for 10 minutes, flip, and cook for 5 more minutes.
5) Remove the fish fingers from the Air Fryer, and serve with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice for extra flavour, and whatever sides you like!

Vietnamese caramel-braised Basa
I went to the supermarket and while scouring the discount food aisle, I saw basa on offer. As a fisherman’s daughter, it’s not often I’ll come across any seafood I haven’t tried, nor even heard of, so I was naturally intrigued. A quick google search told me that basa is a a type of catfish native to Thailand and Vietnam. So I looked specifically for a thai or vietnamese recipe and eventually…

Reseña de la película Sede secreta (2022)
Los directores Henry Joost y Ariel Schulman, que se hicieron famosos en 2010 con el documental “Catfish”, esta vez no tienen en mente nada tan ambicioso o innovador. Coescribiendo el guión con Josh Koenigsberg, que a su vez se basa en un guión del escritor frecuente de Marvel, Christopher Yost (“Thor: Ragnarok”), Joost y Schulman ofrecen alocadas travesuras adolescentes, correteos frenéticos y…

#Dinner lastnight was simple broiled fish filets seasoned with chili lime, a hint of old bay and some fresh dill with a side of sweet corn. We typically don't even put butter on the corn, it's so tasty on its own.

SHARK LOVER
It was in the no so distant past that Americans infrequently contemplated where their nourishment originated from, not to mention the effects of their decisions. Nowadays it's inexorably critical to realize not just what you're eating and where it's originated from. From nourishment centers, ranchers markets, and network bolstered farming (CSA), to entire passageways (and supermarkets) committed to regular, natural, neighborhood and practical produce—Americans and legitimate securities have immediately developed to start turning away the most exceedingly terrible issues of mechanical agribusiness. So however the excursion to a solid practical earthly nourishment framework is a long way from being done, it is well in progress.

Fish, in any case, is increasingly dangerous. "That is on the grounds that it's the 'Remainder of the Buffalo Hunters," with regards to fish says Joe Lasprogata, Vice President of Samuels and Son Seafood Co. "The seas are somehow or another the last wellspring of really wild items, and we should be cautious with those." Samuels and Son supports Sustained Seas, an association devoted to advancing economical fisheries through marking and training. Some portion of the explanation fisheries are in a tough situation is that shoppers didn't have a clue about the effects of their decisions.
Lasprogata says, "For a really long time there's been this astonishing mentality: Fishermen accepted that fisheries had a place with them, and that has prompted breakdown, again and again. There was no consideration, no stewardship. Be that as it may, fisheries can totally be reasonable." That disarray has kept on overflowing into buyer conduct, since certain individuals despite everything settle on fish-purchasing choices dependent on taste, cost, and surface—as opposed to apparent supportability, as indicated by an ongoing report on British Columbian shopper propensities.
Be that as it may, it's critical to consider where the fish originates from, in light of the fact that those elements influence your wellbeing, yet in addition the fate of wild fish stocks, which we and incalculable different species relied upon for our endurance. "There are heaps of approaches to distinguish a supposed "Grimy Dozen" of fish, and it's significant to know about overfishing, contamination, and bycatch," says Marianne Cufone.

Cufone is the Executive Director of Recirculating Farms Coalition, an association devoted to making nearby land-based produce and fish frameworks utilizing hydro-and aquaponics, little neighborhood frameworks that keep away from the issues of untamed water fish ranches and modern agribusiness out and out, where the fish squander prepares new produce. The previous Director of the Fish Program of Food and Water Watch, Cufone's crucial diverting customers toward solid, practical fish-eating. She chuckles, saying, "I get a great deal of writings from my companions asking me which fish are alright to eat."
Cufone stresses that customers can start with a rundown of the 12 Worst Fish, or a "Fishy Dozen"— assembled with assistance from specialists.
Here are the 12 fish you ought to never eat—and what to eat.
Imported Catfish

Why it's awful: "These folks need to remain on the rundown," says Cufone. "On the off chance that there's nothing else to focus on, know this: Imported fish are never assessed for rottenness." Nearly 90 percent of the catfish imported to the U.S. originates from Vietnam, where utilization of anti-toxins that are restricted in the U.S. is far reaching. (Anti-microbial use is likewise an issue with imported shrimp). Besides, the two assortments of Vietnamese catfish sold in the U.S., Swai and Basa, aren't in fact thought about catfish by the government and in this way aren't held to a similar investigation decides that other imported catfish are.
Eat this rather: Stick with residential, ranch raised catfish. It's capably cultivated and ample, making it a standout amongst other fish you can eat. Or on the other hand, attempt Asian carp, an intrusive species with a comparative taste to catfish that is out-contending wild catfish and imperiling the Great Lakes biological system.

MI PAISAJE MEDIATICO
Mi nombre es Carmen, vivo en Marbella pero pasé los primeros cinco años de mi infancia en Málaga. Acabo de cumplir 19, curso primero de bachillerato de artes. Es mi tercer año en ieda, empecé con 16 haciendo el ámbito científico-tecnológico, estos dos últimos años trate de avanzar en el bachillerato sin obtener los resultados que esperaba y debido a ello he decidido cambiar de modalidad. A continuación os voy a hablar un poco de mis intereses, tanto en música como en películas, series...
Un medio de comunicación que consumo es whatsapp, suelo ver las noticias con frecuencia. Veo la televisión en poca cantidad, pero en caso de hacerlo me agrada ver el canal MTV puesto que mi programa favorito es “catfish”.
Una película que siempre recomiendo es “el diario de Noa”, trata de una historia de amor de dos jóvenes de clases sociales muy diferentes y pasan por varias situaciones que les separan a lo largo de su vida, es una historia donde (en mi opinión) se refleja el verdadero amor.
youtube
Una serie que me gustó mucho y he visto un par de veces es “FRIENDS”, trata de la relación entre un grupo de cinco amigos que, siendo totalmente diferentes unos de otros, se mantienen siempre unidos gracias a su amistad.
youtube
¡Me encanta la música! “Dream a Little dream of me” (por Ella FitzGerald y Louis Armstrong) es una de mis canciones favoritas, me trasmite paz, tranquilidad, todo lo que hay en ella me gusta, las voces, los instrumentos…
youtube
Mi futuro se basa en los estudios, quiero sacarme el bachiller e ir a la universidad. Espero que esta asignatura me ayude a tener más conocimiento sobre internet y a saber manejarme mejor.
