My Fridge MEME, New Poll and Cooking Games

Hey, I just found two CUTE COOKING GAMES:

OR

That was after Madhuli of My Foodcourt tagged me with What´s Your Fridge MEME. When She did, the first thing that popped into my mind was: `Thanx God, it was about the time to clean my fridge...` I just couldn't be asked. But now that I did it, it doesn't actually look that bad. And I also had a chance to throw out crap that was way useless just taking space in there, you know what I mean...

So, here is a fridge of a spice lover:

It has a freezer down there, but it doesn't contain anything special. Frozen veggies, fruit, okara and coffee. Oh, and ice cubes, of course...

But back to what you CAN see:

1. Top shelf - stuff to spice up your meal : Cooking wine (it s there only because it is way too big for other shelves), fermented bean curd 豆腐乳(something like blue Cheese, very stinky, but great), HP Sauce (behind it, never understood what it was actually doing there), Chilli Oil, Rapeseed oil flavored with French herbs, Vietnamese Chili Sauce and Pickled Green Chili.

2. Second shelf - spice up your cooking: Pickled jalapeno, pickled chili peppers, Horse-radish mustard, Dijon mustard (yes, all those could go to the top shelf, too), Korean Godzujang chili paste (amazing thing, really), Tandoori masala paste, dried shrimps and shrimp paste (for my Thai cooking).

3. Third shelf - sweeten it up: Blueberry syrup, two bottles of water, vanilla soy yoghurt, Kumquat marmalade, Orange peel marmalade, soy milk and vanilla yoghurt.

4. Fourth shelf - veggies (currently string beans and corn and inside the white box some fresh chilies, carrots, zucchini and ginger)

5. Fifth Shelf - fruit and beers (currently tamarind pulp and dates)

ON THE DOOR - there we store medicine, more sauces and more yoghurt and soy milk.

We like it simple. Everything else is freshly bought and successfully used up.

Now, I d like to know what is in YOUR fridge. I was always very curious about exotic fridge-content ....... like ....... Guyanese:

Yes, it is you Cynthia of Tastes Like Home. Reveal the secret of your wonderful dishes when you get a chance!

Another thing (perfectly timed) is the expiry of my very first poll. It s been a long time since I asked you What your favorite chili feeling was. Thanx to all 64 of you that participated.

Here is the outcome:

• 32% (21 of you) thinks it is BURNT MOUTH (thank you guys, it makes me very happy to hear that).

• 32% (21 of you again) thinks it is RUNNING NOSE (good one).

• 14% (9 of you) voted for FIERY BUTT (ouch, these guys like it real hot!).

• 12% (8 of you) likes the SWEATY FOREHEAD (almost like running, huh? Burning calorieeees, not bad...).

• 1 person HATES SPICES (who is that looser? :-).

That was a lot of fun! Now I have another (hopefully) equally entertaining one. It´s on your left, so go for it.
