My wife and daughter are away for the summer so I am back to cooking for myself on most days. Don’t worry; cooking for one can be a very fun and satisfying way to cook. Even if you have a whole family there may be reasons that you are cooking for one. Maybe you eat differently than your family and need to cook a special meal for yourself that does not include same items that they are eating. Maybe you work different hours than everyone else in the house, or maybe you you like different food than everyone else around. I have many recipes and ideas that are focused on creating only one serving. If you are new to the idea of cooking for one, remember it is much easier than you might think.

One time I started with hot water and let them boil for about 15 minutes. Another time, I would start with cold water and boil them for about 15 minutes. And sometimes I just stuck them in the water and prayed that when I took them out they were done.
