what i eat in a day (cozy winter meals)

[@harshiharshii2253]

Don't get me wrong Inga but your videos always put me right into sleep! And always make me hungry when I am in my "not eating for days" phase! I really really love and appreciate the joy, comfort and little happiness it brings to my boring little life. Thank you so much!! Context: I am a mad insomniac!!!!! I literally don't sleep for days!! EDIT: SO IF YOU CAN DO THIS TO MY LIFE I AM PRETTY SURE YOU CAN DO WHATEVER YOU WANT!!

[@genyakostyk]

"my old one didn't even have a lid!" "because I broke it when I opened it..." I laughed more than I should have

[@IngaLam]

for everyone who wondered for years why it was a lidless pot....... 🫣

[@two_faced31]

I am a lazy cook (Coming from a family that is full of cooking magicians who prefer the long-way / from-scratch) but find comfort from watching your preparations because I'm the same way as a stress baker. Whenever I am stressed I literally resort to baking (yes with music playing -- or blaring -- in the background). I didn't even know I was doing that until someone termed it and I was like "ohmygoodness, that's me" Your videos are like little olafs in the weeks that you post (warm hugs).😊

[@anaumnasir]

Everything is going to turn out great, Inga; you are a wonderful creator and chef, and the way you share your story with us gives a calming and soothing feeling to many troubled souls. I always look forward to your videos and love you for what you do and who you are ❤

[@megamcee]

It's kinda unreasonable how absolutely stunning your hair looks.

[@JackOusley]

Everything looks so delicious!!! I'm glad you found a nice replacement for your glass pot, it looks great, I love the tint of the glass. Have a great weekend!

[@twinklingtreasure]

These are seriously my favorite videos of yours! Just so relaxing and chill. Even the fully silent ones with just text. Also, I'd LOVE to see a video about your coffee//tea settup. While you were eating the mac and cheese I noticed a few things behind you and I'm curious what you use/recommend!

[@swirlychaos]

these videos are really helping me to be less anxious about moving out soon, and also helping me realize the things i need to remember to have in my new place (like pots and pans)

[@stevenla761]

I swear Inga has the perfect voice for a Disney Princess🙌

[@dougjones2065]

Wow. I feel exactly the same about cookings role in my life, really since I was a child it’s been a comfort in many levels. And, even though I’ve cooked professionally and been in hospitality my whole life it’s still a kind of private need and safe place. Appreciate your honesty so much and I can totally relate!

[@puffmcfluff2002]

I understand working hard for something and putting your heart and soul in it and then it's possibly, or definitely not going to happen. For me that was a job i went to college to try and pursue until a back injury in early 2020... it was certainly a a let down ❤ hopefully whatever you were trying to do eventually works out for you inga ❤❤

[@feliciag4726]

Thanks for your videos, Inga. I was in NYC this week and it was COLD. I used your restaurant guide and took some friends to Take31. It was so warming and delicious!😊

[@IngaLam]

so glad to hear you all enjoyed!!

[@pirukorui]

That miso butternut squash pasta is such a good idea! I"ve been in a pasta recipe rut so I'm gonna try this asap!!!

[@power-of-unity]

It's cold where I am, but watching your video makes me feel warm. Sorry to hear it's been so stressful for you lately. Thanks for sharing another wonderful video with us, and hope you have a good holiday! Best of luck with the new pot and lid.

[@palespectre]

Really really relatable. Food provides me comfort too, so it makes me worse when I am feeling so down thst I can’t even muster the energy to make food, that is when I know things are really so bad. Thanks inga, keep doing what you do. You are inspiring.

[@matthodek]

I'm sorry to hear that things have been stressful. I totally do the same with using hobbies to keep myself busy. I appreciate your thoughtful and beautiful videos as a little escape too. I've lost my connection to cooking a little bit recently, but hopefully some recent stress of mine will end up as a good thing and I can be excited to get into the kitchen again. Take care. 🍲

[@Akuaudi99]

Really hope things work out for you. Your doing great. Appreciate all that you do

[@Mssvnns]

Your videos feel like a warm blanket on a cold day❤️

[@38lizzieb]

your videos are always so relaxing and chill!

[@larawabsie]

Completely unrelated but I LOVE your Totoro shirt ❤

[@luizapalavizini2949]

It's funny to watch this from Brazil because we are in summer here

[@Nasalkeihpos]

Comfort soup is my go to when it’s cold as well

[@aimeeisnotacat]

I also cook/bake when I'm stressed or upset! I'm not sure when it started but I can always count on a simple cookie recipe, or an extravagant video game themed meal to put me at ease.

[@JazzyBlues79]

Hey Inga! I love your content. Your videos always put me at ease. I also cook to relieve stress. It forces me to focus on what I am doing (like to avoid getting cut or burned ouch!) and the end result is very satisfying. Thanks for taking us along on your journey. :) I wanted to say that I appreciate you, your effort, and your videos. Hugs to you and Happy Holidays.

[@paulstevens1493]

That Totoro shirt is 10/10 excellent!

[@lilmissyolly13]

You always pull such interesting ingredients from your freezer. I feel like a Freezer Tour would make a great video!

[@jessicahinojosa4367]

Good morning everyone 😊

[@Serendipitous69]

G’morning! Have a beautiful day 😊

[@IngaLam]

i am loving the vibes in here 🥹

[@Serendipitous69]

@@IngaLam you’ve built a sweet community. Chill vibes for sure 🥰

[@Irissea]

Good evening from The Netherlands! 😊

[@VerhoevenSimon]

Thank you for the cozy video, and I hope that the project still works out.

[@Flareontoast]

Re: food as a "tool" against stress. Alongside the reasons you listed, things like chopping also let you use up pent-up energy that often are just present if you're experiencing a lot of anxiety. Also, eating can not only be a pleasant sensory experience but also trick your nervous system into feeling safer!

[@RC-eb5hb]

Nice to catch up with you again, Inga! I never thought about butternut squash with Mac and cheese. I’ll have to try it sometime. I’m glad you found a replacement for the OG glass pot, and it also has a lid! Whatever course your product goes, you’ve accomplished so much this far. You’ll work through these challenges and find a solution, I just know it! Keep your chin up, Inga. We’re all rooting for you! 🎉😍❤

[@dilliangonzalez431]

I love watching your videos there so calming ❤

[@monika-we8tx]

everything will be okay inga. you'll do great. live happily and healthily.

[@arrrressss]

Back when Instant Pots were all the rage, people were touting how much faster it made the cooking process. But like you, I find the process of cooking and filling the house to be medatative. I get how it's useful if you're feeding a family, but most of the time it's just me. So anything that speeds things along and takes things out of my hands is actually not so appealing. I also love how you were so skeptical about that very expensive toaster back during lockdown but now it makes an appearance in almost every video.

[@IngaLam]

always skeptical until they can change my mind ha, funny enough, it’s the one of the only appliances that brings me a sense of peace…

[@ssenssel]

Yes! No foreign audio track imposed by YT. Thanks Inga! 🥰

[@wilsonyeung3351]

Watching you cook is very therapeutic and always love these videos! P.s glad you're watching Arcane, such an incredible series! 😊

[@theorodokoi]

I love a steaming sweet potato on a cold day

The pasta and dumplings looked delicious.

[@monika-we8tx]

you looked out of it and your voice cracked a few time during this video. just wanted to say i love you.

[@FishareFriendsNotFood972]

Squash, all the squash, says 'winter' to me the most, no matter where in the world I am.

[@tonyk7ng1803]

Sometimes it’s good to be a bit more demanding and dominating to get to your goal just to show to the people that you’re not a pushover and taking you more seriously. Being nice and kind to the people that actually makes your own life easier and colorful, and the rest you can just forget and forgive (when you can). Cheers 🥂

[@lamedumbjoker]

Kimchi actually goes really well with sweet potato maybe you can try it sometimes😋

[@Pizza-g2b]

Thank you for this video :)

[@brookechang4942]

Watching this while eating congyoubing made from your recipe. ❤

[@Serendipitous69]

Girl you are not wrong about Arcane! So many emotions 😳

[@zohaibhassan3645]

wayy too early! Anyways, love watching your videos Inga!!

[@IngaLam]

no such thing as way too early!!

[@LPdedicated]

I buy fun shaped pasta meant for kids all the time! It just brings a little extra joy, especially if I'm feeling down. I hope everything works out, and if it doesn't, I hope new opportunities will find you! 😊

[@miseentrope]

WOW! Did not know NYT had a cookie truck (so cool!) cuz I reside in the middle of nowhere and under a rock (hahaha). Need to make those 'taters with nut butter and Indiana sorghum. Thanks, Inga, for giving ideas. 🥰 (Mrs. Meyer's Iowa Pine multi-surface spray cleaner is my fav for winter '24.) Edit: have butternut squash so thanks for another inspo. My grandmother was an early adopter of the Visions cookware--loved her wholesome food.

[@barbaranytes-baron7377]

You can’t rely on an immersion blender TOO MUCH! It’s indispensable. Always use mine.

[@LisaRomanoff]

Please adopt me! You seem like the sweetest and most down to earth person ever ❤ i love your content :)

[@user-vmr9nsahseyns2]

Any brand or type of dashi stock to recommend?

I'm impressed by how many advertisements you managed to cram into the first 3 minutes.

Sending you hugs.

[@adithidravida4717]

Can you please tell me where you got your totoro sweatshirt from!!?? I love it but I'm not able to find it 😅😅

[@stephaniesosna8213]

How did you cook the sweet potatoes in your rice cooker ? Setting ? Time ? Just ordered my first fancy rice cooker, Cuckoo pressure rice cooker 👏😊

[@IngaLam]

congrats!! if it doesn’t come in with a built in steam function, the regular mode works too, and then i just periodically check on it after 20ish min
