Australijczycy podobno wynalezli instytucje barbecue, wszechobecnego
w tym kraju od plazy po gory; pikniki tez sa tu popularne. Mnie to
pasuje, bo lubie gotowac. W ogrodzie mam coraz wiecej grzadek
wspierajacych pasje gotowania. W kuchni wyprobowuje nowe przepisy,
garnkii i narzedzia. Jesienia i wiosna z przyjaciolmi organizujemy
piatkowe obiady - co dwa tygodnie u mnie, w inne tygodnie u tego,
komu sie chce ;o) Nie zauwazylam ze gotowanie w domu staje sie
coraz popularniejsze, az natrafilam na artykul Food-crazed nation itching to get into the kitchen
Widzicie taki trend ze ludzie gotuja wiecej zeby oszczedzic na
wydatkach restauracyjnych? Gotujecie wiecej w domu? Czy to kryzys,
czy styl zycia?

None of this comes as a surprise to the manager of the Paris
International Cooking School in Stanmore, Laurent Villoing. "It's
actually got more and more busy in the last 12 months," he said.
As spending at restaurants falls, students have told Mr Villoing
they are entertaining at home more frequently and want to learn
techniques used by chefs.
"They want to learn the services that they were paying for when they
were going to restaurants," he said.
Basic food also continues to sell strongly. Pasta, snacks and ice-
cream remain among the top items, while a Woolworths spokesman said
baking ingredients such as flour and sugar were popular too. Luciana
Sampogna, who runs the Cucina Italiana Cooking School in Annandale,
said the growing interest in cooking could lift people's spirits, as
well as save them money.
"People need to have a feeling inside of their heart that they have
achieved something. And when things go badly, you are either going
to be fully depressed or you are going to get out of bed and say, 'I
want to learn'," Ms Sampogna said.
Enrolments in her lessons have been steady despite the downturn -
the most popular class being booked out until October.
But for all the interest in home cooking, many are still opting for
simplicity. Spending on packaged meals was up 5.8 per cent, with
canned food also performing strongly.
The principal of Sydney Community College, Garry Traynor, said the
most consistently oversold course was an introductory lesson
covering basic techniques such as chopping onions, sauteeing and
simmering.
"That's always over-subscribed," he said.
