First Meeting


In Meetup.com(http://www.meetup.com/), I found new group "The Capital District Gourmet Meetup" and I became a member. Today I had a first meeting of this group at "Honest Weight Food Co-op(http://www.honestweight.coop/)". Today's theme was "How to Cook with Bulk Foods". At first, we went to the bulk foods aisle and staff explained us some bulk foods. There were many kinds of flower and rice in this corner. Especially, we tasted Quinoa and Basmati. Quinoa looks like cusucusu but they are smaller. They were mixed with dice of tomatoes and its taste like a salad and it's good for breakfast, I think. Basmati was mixed with lentil and little portion of soy source. It's good for dinner. I ate both of them for the first time but I liked them. I enjoyed this meeting very much and want to try other exotic food!!
