It is vital for all known forms of life, despite not providing food energy, food, energy or organic micronutrients. Its chemical formula, H2O, indicates that each of its molecules contains one oxygen and two hydrogen atoms, connected by covalent bonds. The hydrogen atoms are attached to the oxygen atom at an angle of 104.45°. "Water" is also the name of the liquid state of H2O at standard temperature and pressure. A number of natural states of water exist. It forms precipitation in the form of rain and aerosols in the form of fog. Clouds consist of suspended droplets of water and ice, its solid state.

Mofongo
Mofongo () is a Puerto Rican dish with plantains as its main ingredient. Plantains are picked green, cut into pieces and typically fried but can be boiled or roasted, then mashed with salt, garlic, broth, and olive oil in a wooden pilón (mortar and pestle). The goal is to produce a tight ball of mashed plantains that will absorb the attending condiments and have either pork cracklings (''chicharrón'') or bits of bacon inside. It is traditionally served with fried meat and chicken broth soup. Particular flavors result from variations that include vegetables, chicken, shrimp, beef, or octopus packed inside or around the plantain orb. Origin and history Mofongo's roots lead to the African fufu, mixed with some Spanish and Taíno influences. Fufu is made from various starchy vegetables and was introduced to the Caribbean by Africans in the Spanish New World colonies such as Cuba ''(fufu de plátano'' and ''machuquillo)'', Dominican Republic ''(mangú)'', Haiti ''(Tom Tom)'' and ...

Scrambled Egg
Scrambled eggs is a dish made from eggs (usually chicken eggs) stirred, whipped or beaten together while being gently heated, typically with salt, butter, oil and sometimes other ingredients. Preparation Only eggs are necessary to make scrambled eggs,Jamie Oliver, ''Jamie's Ministry of Food: Anyone Can Learn to Cook in 24 Hours'', , 2008 but salt, water, milk, chives, cream, crème fraîche, sour cream, or grated cheese may be added. The eggs are cracked into a bowl with some salt and pepper, and the mixture is stirred or whisked: alternatively, the eggs are cracked directly into a hot pan or skillet, and the whites and yolks stirred together as they cook. Recipes disagree on whether milk, cream, or water should be added. The mixture can be poured into a hot pan containing melted butter or oil, where it starts coagulating. The heat is turned down and the eggs are stirred as they cook. This creates small, soft curds of egg. A thin pan is preferable to prevent browning. With cont ...

Rice

Tosilog
''Silog'' is a class of Filipino breakfast dishes containing ''sinangag'' (fried rice) and ''itlog'' (egg; in context, fried egg). They are served with various viands or ''ulam'', usually meat dishes such as tapa, longganisa or ham. The name of the accompanying meat dish determines the portmanteau name of the ''silog''; for example, the former three would be known as tapsilog, longsilog, and hamsilog. History The first type of silog to be named as such was the '' tapsilog''. It was originally intended to be quick breakfast or late-night hangover fare. It developed from ''tapsi'', which referred to meals of beef ''tapa'' and ''sinangag'' with no fried egg explicitly mentioned, and diners which mainly or exclusively served such meals were called ''tapahan'' or ''tapsihan'' in Filipino. The term ''tapsilog'' was originally established in the 1980s and came from the Tapsi ni Vivian ("Vivian's Tapsi") restaurant in Marikina. According to Vivian del Rosario, owner of Tapsi ni Vivian ...
