Good idea... But don't you think small containers defrost easily when there's no electricity for a while?

Yes, easy and faster defrosting of food when you want to eat is one of the benefits of small packaging. Why keep a long-term food in the freezer when you aren't sure you can keep the food steadily frozen?

Food stored constantly at 0° F will always be safe. Only the quality suffers with lengthy freezer storage. Freezing keeps food safe by slowing the movement of molecules, causing microbes to enter a dormant stage. Freezing preserves food for extended periods because it prevents the growth of microorganisms that cause both food spoilage and food-borne illness.

Imagine what defrosting and frosting continuously will do to the food.

Yeah I totally understand... But I don't defrost... I break off with a knife and a bread knife...

I'd have adopted the small container procedure, but I think in a case where there's no electricity for up to two days, the bowls can withstand it, but I doubt the small containers will

Thats not a bachelors diet, abi you dey do mama put business ni?

I can see that you like food. If you cooked all these delicious meal then you do not need a wife except for only making babies.

good move

Modsenemy:

Puke! #Nasty

EMEKA1MILLION:
Odili Road, trans amadi axis.... Very good supply.

consider the lady's advice of small plastics - those 50 naira take away ones....it's even cheaper when u buy a dozen or more. trust me, u'll be glad u portioned out ur soup.

well done, guy

Sparklequeen:


No oh, don't do that oh, at least once in a while u help ur wife. Ur a good cook and u need to show ur wife that feature.

Food where you never taste!

you dey scream good cook!

You are getting it right my brother.

EMEKA1MILLION:
Every new month this is what I do.
Go to market and get the things for the desired soup for the month myself since am still a bachelor and living alone.
The soup is expected to last for the month unless my friends come around.
This month of March I chose egusi, ogbono, okra and stew.

The egusi ingredients are
Egusi 2 cups
Achi (to make the soup thick)
Cameroon pepper (dunno why it's called that tho)
Vegetable
Dry fish
Stock fish
Palm oil
Goat and cow beef mixed
Fresh fish.
Etc....


Ogbono soup ingredients is same as above excluding the Achi.

The okra soup is made specially for me cos I love periwinkle but sadly most of my guys don't so just in case they come around, they'll see something to eat.
The soup has so much periwinkle.
Beef (chopped the beef to pieces)
Dry fish
Kpomo
Etc...

Stew easy na so no need listing out the ingredients.


Anyway it took me 3hours to cook all.

Budget for everything is 10,500 naira.
Since I stay in Port Harcourt, things are pretty expensive here so I spent most of my day in the market bargaining price

Defrosting process sets in immediately you remove the food from the freezer. You may not notice it visually but it's happening as long the food is outside the freezer.

So if it takes you 5 mins to break off the amount of food you need and return the remaining to the freezer, it means your food defrosted for 5 mins. And the more the food is reduced in quantity, the more rate it defrosts in 5 mins.

Your food would suffer, at least, 5 mins of minimal defrost per day for a month. And that is 150 mins (2.5 hours) in total. Your food would definitely lose some good quality.

Hiddentreasure1:
Well done dats a gud feat. Jst want to say dat I hrd from someone dat achi is nt gud for men dat it weakens them down there I.e they won't b able to perform properly so I hrd from one of my frds n she said is her doctor dat told her well I don't know how true is it pls confirm n do d needful tnx

Pure and unadulterated falsehood. On the contrary, achi is a wonderful aphrodisiac that also improves potency in men. Achi belongs to the mucuna bean family (you can google on that). Mucuna bean family are very rich in L-Dopa and is an effective anti-depressant, Libido booster and testosterone supplement.

Another member of the mucuna bean family is ukpo which serves the same function in soups as achi ( I dont know what other native groups call it, its well known as ukpo in Abia State). I personally prefer ukpo, but unfortunately, due to urbanization, ukpo is almost going extinct.

Okk, see as I dey blab on top food wey emeka prepare.

Then a custard rubber of rice and beans, i bought some ingredient that ar not perishable then save some cash like 5k in a separate bank acct that we cover for the month, i use 1k weekly for meat, fish and veg ad other stuff .

How do u preserve the food to last you a week?

Shebi PH nepa Don repent?

Amberon11:

Nah, NTA/rumuibgo new housing estate

EMEKA1MILLION:
if I marry na to retire from kitchen.

Na this kain mentality I dislike. I'd rather be with a guy that cannot cook at all than be with one that chooses not to cook because he has a wife.

EMEKA1MILLION:

Yea definitely. Cooking is tiring my dear that's why I do it once monthly. Rest of the work is to defrost when needed.

So you know it is tiring and you want too retire and leave it all to your wife? What happened to selfless love?

This is serious!
