General tips

If you're eating foods out of season, it's likely that they have come a long way - try to eat food that is both locally produced and can be found at that time of year, locally!

Good food alone cannot make you healthy and happy. You also need sunshine (for vitamin D and strong biorhythms), moderate exercise, relaxation, and love. A daily walk outdoors will give you the first three. Use a water-filter and nontoxic household products (available from us & elsewhere). Get mercury fillings out of your teeth. Avoid drugs and manmade chemicals whenever possible. If your health remains poor, find a doctor who will search for the root causes, not suppress the symptoms with drugs and surgery.

Try Eating Raw Food : Your body needs time to adjust and clean itself. Start including more fresh fruit, green salad, and green juice in your meals. Cut back on meat, dairy products, and cooked starchy foods. Try eating all raw one day per week, then two days. Or eat only two cooked foods per meal, then only one. You'll feel the difference.

Cooking safety

Make sure your ventilation is working properly and not blocked up, especially if you have a gas cooker.
If you've consumed alcohol, don't be tempted to cook with a chip pan.

4 lb Stripped Bass, cleaned OR

4 lb Sea Bass, cleaned OR

Pepper (to taste) For Polenta: ============ In a heavy saucepan, combine water, butter, salt and bay leaf. Pour in cornmeal in a thin stream, stirring constantly. Bring mixture to a simmer, stirring constantly, over medium heat. Reduce heat to medium low. Continue to stir over heat until mixture is smooth, very thick, and pulls away from sides of pan, about 15 minutes.

Cover and keep warm. For Red Snapper in Brodetto: ============================ With a cleaver, cut each fish into 3 pieces, leaving head and tail on. Heat vegetable oil in skillet to about 350 F. Dredge pieces of fish in flour, shaking off excess. Cook, turning once, until lightly golden but not cooked through, about 5 minutes. Drain on paper towels and set aside. In separate large skillet, heat olive oil over medium high heat. Add onion and scallion and saute, tossing until lightly golden, about 5 minutes.

Add fish in single layer and sprinkle with salt. Spoon tomato paste between pieces of fish and cook about 3 minutes, shaking pan occasionally. Stir together vinegar and hot water and add to fish. Bring to boil then lower the heat and simmer, uncovered, 2 to 3 minutes. Carefully turn pieces of fish. Increase heat to medium high and continue to cook just until fish is cooked through, about 10 minutes. Transfer fish and a mounded spoonful of polenta to warm serving plates. Boil sauce vigorously until slightly thickened and correct seasoning with salt, pepper, and a few drops of wine vinegar, if needed. Pour over fish and serve immediately.
