Beef tips

Even today, you are best off visiting a proper butcher instead of a generic food store. A specialised butcher is far more likely to have a more extensive range of beef cuts than the general food store, he will know the history of his beef, will have hung it in the right way, and he will be able to help you with advice on cooking procedures.

Beef is far more in demand in the Usa than anywhere else on the planet. If one were to add up all the steak and burger based meals prepared in the world, you may well be amazed to find that the United states consumes roughly a quarter of the total.

Kitchen Safety

Keep the oven, hob and grill clean. A build-up of fat and bits of food can start a fire.

Food and Cooking Tips

Buy Local Food : See if you can find out where your food has gone before it gets to your plate. You may be suprised by the results. Often it will make financial sense for companies to transport food enourmous distances by planes, boats and lorries. This dosn't take the environmental cost into account (which of course is likely to lead to greatly increased economic costs in the long term).

Making your own lunch instead of buying from a sandwich shop saves on packaging, and could also save you approx £4 a day or £1,000 per year! =====
