Here they are. Yummy and crunchy Cornflakes.
If I was to do this again I would make them thinner. For a first try though not bad. I don’t think the economics adds up for this one, but for the kudos of making things from scratch. Not a bad one.
For a rundown on how I did it go to my post Cornflakes.
Invented when somebody used the wrong flour for pancakes when they were drunk. These crispy flakes have stopped 2 world wars and an alien invasion. The first superfood, Cornflakes have been around since biblical times and are mentioned in the first testament, making them the first ever commercially available product. Some say the sex trade is the oldest profession in the world. Not true, the Kellogg family have been selling cornflakes since man invented fire.
If you have a good three hours to kill before breakfast make your own Cornflakes. Get these ingredients and combine them all except for half a cup of the polenta and mix it up real good. Then spread the batter onto a baking tray. With the remaining polenta add a small amount of water and make it into a type of bread crumb and sprinkle it on top of the batter.
Put it in the oven at 180°c for 15 minutes and then take it out and let cool. Turn the oven down to 160°c and break up the big cornflake on the tray into the more traditional type of flake you are used to.
Put it all back in the oven and wait another 45 minutes. Take them out let cool. Severe with milk and eat. Yum.

A drink loved all over the world. Some say the crusades uncovered the recipe for cola while looking for the holy grail, others say it was created by aliens. The truth is that back in the middle ages the Illuminati created it as a way of laundering their extreme wealth. It was a way that they could move large amounts of cash around the world without raising suspicion. They created a company to produce Coke, a drink they knew would be irresistible to the poor and simple minded. They do this by using money in one country to make coke and then import that to another country. It is then easily turned back into cash. When the mafia caught onto this they created Pepsi for the same purpose.
Today is cola

I’ve taken these raw ingredients (does anyone really know what chinese five spice is) and I have combined them in a way that makes one of the most refreshing mixers I have ever tasted. I had this on a hot summers day and I dropped at least 5 degrees.
You need to zest all those bad boys and put them in a big pot with their juices, the sugar, and water. Cook it down to extract the old from all that zest. After that add the other stuff and cook it some more. Once you think it is cooked enough take it off the heat and let it cool.
Once cool strain it and bottle it. Add it to some ice with some soda water and job done. Delicious refreshing cola.
Pork belly delicious in its own. Cured then smoked, it’s the worlds best food. Bacon.
Today I make bacon.
How can you have vegetarians question their life choices? Serve bacon. Everyone’s favourite food. In Australia it was traditionally for breakfast. It has become so much more. In 1976 Bacon invented brunch. At brunch people could eat bacon later in the day without feeling guilty. Bacon used this to infiltrate lunch. Now bacon is used in every meal. Its a breakfast, its a side dish, and it’s used in main meals everywhere. It is even wrapped around vegetables to help carnivores get a balance diet. It made world domination in 1998 when it broke into cocktail and dessert scene, making it truly the worlds most versatile and sought after foods.
Pork belly, one of the most delicious cuts of meats. I turn the famous pork belly into Bacon, known all over the world, and renowned for it delicious properties so powerful that even the most health conscious can’t resist.
I mix the sugar, salt, and nitrite together and rub it all over the meat, put in a bag and suck out all the air.
I have all this time on my hands. I wouldn’t call it spare time. I have 2 kids so there is no such thing. But I have made time, my greatest accomplishment so far. I will show you all how I did that aqnother time. But for now lets get on with doing stuff.
Popcorn Popping Roaster
One of the worlds most loved drinks. Whether it’s the flavour or for a kick, coffee is enjoyed by just about everyone. The only people that don’t drink coffee are either transcendent and have surpassed the everyday struggle us mere mortals live day by day, or society says they are too young, and therefore have no need for this elixir. The Ancient Mayans believed that if someone young enough was to drink enough coffee they would live forever.
I use a Mistral Party Fun Popcorn Popper to raost green coffee beans.
My plan. To put some coffee beans in, turn it on, and and take them out when they looked right. Thats right, I’m going by colour alone.
Apart from being amazed that it actually worked, the first roast was over in about four and a half minutes. Much faster than I thought it would take. Charff went everywhere and the beans popped, they actually popped. When in Rome. This I found out subsequently was called the first crack, it is when the moisture in the bean (not a bean) builds up pressure and splits making an audible crack.
See what goes into making BBQ sauce
Barbequing was invented by the Vikings by accident when, as a joke, one viking threw a pig on top of a burning village. The results speak for themselves. Every nation on Earth has a history of barbecuing Even the worlds youngest nation South Sudan’s top restaurant is a BBQ joint. In the old ages people used tomato sauce for cooking BBQ. As civilisation advanced so did peoples tastes. The dark ages ended with the invention of BBQ sauce, and the world has never tasted better.
I turn Mangos in to sorbet
Sorbet, from the Atlantian word meaning “nectar of ice”, on it’s own is plain and ordinary. But, when combined with mangos, a delicious fruit from my backyard and a couple of things from the kitchen… Let me just say, the sum of the parts is much more than the whole.
I put most of this together and poured it into a icecream maker.
The result is very delicious. Unfortunately, though there isn’t enough sugar and it is a little bit hard and icy. Still delicious. There’s not much to making sorbet as long as you have an icecream machine.
