Why *Mushroom And Leek Soup Recipe* is More Tempting than a Cinnamon


Winters are here so how can we forget the essentials of winter. Soups are the must haves of Winter. I love soups, you love soups, we all love soups. But my sister doesn't! I can't answer why, because there is no answer. 

Trying different kinds of food is my favorite thing to do and every one would have eaten chicken corn soups, vegetable soups, chicken egg soups and etc. But, today the recipe I am sharing might be interesting for my fellow foodies. 

"Mushroom And Leek Soup"

Mushrooms are familiar but maybe people doesn't know what leek is. Leek is actually a kind of onion, Green Onion :

What Is Required? 

  • 1 12  Ounces dried mushrooms (porcini would taste better in the soup)
  • 1  2-inch piece parmesan cheese rind (skin) 
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 leeks (White, and light green parts), sliced
  • Salt (Optional)
  • Black Pepper (Optional)
  • 10 ounces mixed mushrooms (take cremini, shiitake and button) 
  • 8 ounces noodles, cooked 
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives

Method:



  1. Combine the porcini mushrooms, Parmesan rind, and 10 cups water in a large pot and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes. Strain, discarding the solids and reserving the liquid. Stir in the soy sauce.
  2. Heat the oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the leeks, ¾ teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, 4 to 6 minutes. Add the mixed mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are tender and starting to brown, 6 to 8 minutes. Add the reserved broth, cover, and bring to a simmer. Add the soba and cook until heated through.
  3. Serve the soup topped with the chives.

Serving it beautifully will add more taste to the soup.

Body Moisturizer Review: Vaseline Dry Skin Repair



It's December finally! I don't know why, but I think November was a slow month. As I promised, today's post is also winter themed. Today, I will be sharing my experience about using a Body Moisturizer - Vaseline Dry Skin Repair 

The product claims to restore dry skin for 3 weeks and it is clinically proven. It contains micro drops of Vaseline jelly which gives it perfect restoring power. 


It restores the natural glow of skin. Smooth and non- greasy. It is pure white in color and the texture is thick when stored in cold place and light when it gets heat. It lasts longer than the ones I used. Yes, it really does. It smells nice and the sweet fragrance makes it more comfortable for me to use. 

It comes in different sizes and which is really good because it is Travel friendly. People who spend most of their time out in winters can easily just keep the small- sized one in their bags or anything they carry. It has glycerin to pull the moisture in  lower layers of skin too. (Yes, you can feel it too). It is Best for Dry Skin and I own dry skin that's the reason I loved it. So all the dry skins, get ready for the fight! 


Pros:-

  • Non- greasy
  • Thick
  • Moisturises deeply
  • Available in different bottle sizes
  • Good restoring power
  • Lasts longer
  • Leaves skin soft and hydrated
  • Absorbs quickly

Cons:-

  • Little Sticky 

 How To Use:

Apply Vaseline intensive care dry skin repair lotion as desired on your skin, Avoid applying it on your face if its oily.
Keep it away from direct sun light, this will make it super light and might make it work less, hence store it in a cool dry place.
In case of contact with eyes, wash thoroughly with water.
Keep out of reach of children. Can be used on children of any age.

Price in Pakistan: I don't remember the exact price but I can assure, you can buy it below the range of 1000 PKR.  

I Rate: 4.5/05

HOW TO: Take Your Extra Care This Winter



A Big Hello To All My Readersss! 😋😋😋

After a long vacation, I am again here with a new post just according to the season WINTERRR!!😍😍😍 As I have already told you guys about my love for this season, I decided to keep WINTERS as my theme for two months i.e November and December. Yes, I am too very excited. 😎😎

I just saw the Inserting Emoji Option on the Blog and I cannot express my happiness right now because I love using emojis and my conversation is never ever completed without them, so what's better than that? 😅😅😅 

In this post, I would be telling about the tips which can be really useful for you this winter so let's get started by scrolling down:

1. Moisturize After Wards:


I feel so bad for what I did to the spelling Of *Moist* in the picture but I am Sorry for that.

Find an ointment moisturizer that's oil based and try using it after every wash. Keep a small sized bottle of your skin demanding moisturizer lotion in your purse or bag or anything you take when going out. Go for an oil-based rather than a water-based solution, as it’s more likely to help your skin retain moisture in the winter. Mostly the night lotions are oil based so depend mostly on them.

2. Humidify:


Consider installing a humidifier in your home, particularly in your bedroom, to put moisture back into the air and help prevent your skin from drying out. Place several small humidifiers throughout your home; they help disperse the moisture more evenly. Humidifiers are the best way to keep your skin moist.

3. Just Add Honey:



To soften stubborn dry patches on rough elbows and knees, opt for a rich, hydrating scrub. Even famous makeup artists and dermatologists use mixture of honey and sugar to keep their body parts a little moist. It will definitely help you keeping your core warm and light.

4. Sun Screens Are The Savior:


Not only in Summers, Sun Screens are the  most beneficial treatment for your skin for all the seasons. Winter sun can still damage your skin from inside because it is combined with little snow glares in winters so don't you go out without applying the saviors. Use it more frequently for better results again and again.

5. Protect:



Wear gloves and socks whenever you go out even from your room. Avoid wearing wet gloves and socks. These can be harmful. Wearing scarves and sun screens when going out is the best way to protect yourself in Winters. 

6. Drink More And More And More:



Usually, we see people start taking less water in winters as compared to the summer season. But this is not right. Remember, skin needs hydration from inside in Winters so taking more and more water is useful. Taking Water with lemon can also be very refreshing and hydrating.


7. Change Your Cleansers:



Change your cleansers because a very very dry season is coming (or has come). Try more moisturizing cleansers and avoid going out without covering your face. After cleansing, don’t leave the skin naked for more than 30 seconds, as this can dehydrate it, leading to increased dryness. Apply a hydrating toner and moisturizer to seal in moisture. 

8. Ban Long Relaxing Warm Baths:



Okay, don't ban but just take out a little time to do it. Sure, soaking in a burning-hot bath feels great after frolicking out in the cold. But the intense heat of a hot shower or bath actually breaks down the lipid barriers in the skin, which can lead to a loss of moisture. So, take warm bath (But for a little time) and apply moisturizer just after doing it. 

These were the tips I was dyeing to share with you all. Many love to all of you reading this.😄😄😄
