The make or buy delimma
10:31 PM
Here are the items which I choose to make myself from scratch and the items that I prefer to buy while I prepare my everyday meals:
- Yoghurt - I Make, it is easy to make and tastes better, also store bought turn out to be expensive
- Ghee - I Make, homemade ghee tastes better than any brand of store bought ghee
- Paneer - I Buy, as I use paneer only once a week, I prefer to buy and use
- Chapati - I Make, there is nothing in comparison to homemade hot rotis/chapatis
- Bread - I Buy, it is a complex process to make, requires lots of time
- Pizza crust - I Make, it turns out to be more soft than store bought
- Pizza sauce - I Make, turns out tasty and original flavor
- Pasta sauce - I Make, easy to make and turns out to be much tastier
- Spices - I Buy, find a good brand that suits your taste and buy the same
- Ginger/ garlic paste - I Make, easy to make and no preservatives as present in the packaged ones
- Pickle - I Buy, unless you have time and perfect masalas for making it
- Dips and chutneys - I Make, prepared in minutes
- Soup - I Make, always prefer the original home made soup
- Stock/ broth - I Make, healthier and without any chemicals added
