General cooking tips

Buy Organic Foods : There are 12 foods where buying organic makes even more sense than normal.
According to the EWG (Environmental Working Group) the 12 most contaminated foods are:
  • apples
  • bell peppers
  • celery
  • cherries
  • imported grapes
  • nectarines
  • peaches
  • pears
  • potatoes
  • red raspberries
  • spinach
  • strawberries
All tested positive for pesticide residue – even after having been washed! Sweet bell peppers were the vegetable with the most pesticides overall, with 39 pesticides detected on a single sample. Conversely, if you're going to buy conventional, peas, broccoli, onions, pineapples, mangoes, bananas, kiwi and papaya had the lowest occurrence of pesticide residue.


Microwave Tip : Microwave ovens use around 50 percent less energy than conventional ovens; they're most efficient for small portions or defrosting. For large meals, stovetop cooking is usually more efficient


Try Eating Raw Food : Raw food can help you detoxify, cleanse and revitalize your mind, body and spirit. Raw and Living Foods contain enzymes. In general, the act of heating food over 116 degrees F destroys enzymes in food. (Enzymes start to degrade in as little as 106 degrees F). All cooked food is devoid of enzymes, furthermore cooking food changes the molecular structure of the food and renders it toxic. Living and raw foods also have enormously higher nutrient values than the foods that have been cooked.


Safety in the kitchen

  • Don't overload sockets - one plug per socket is the rule, especially if the appliance takes a lot of power (like a kettle).
  • Don't run extension cables across the floor as they can become worn.
  • Is the electric kettle leaking? This can be dangerous.

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

Rice plays a big part in Dutch cooking and this comforting pudding with a hint of orange is wonderful with fresh red currant sauce.

In a large saucepan, bring milk and rice to boil, stirring occasionally; reduce heat, cover and simmer for 20 minutes. Strain rice, reserving milk, meahwhile, in a bowl, beat eggs; gradually whisk in milk. Stir in rice, sugar, vanilla and orange rind. Spoon into 8 greased 3/4 cup custard cups. Place cups in a large cake pan or roaster; pour in enough hot water to come half way up sides. Bake in 325-F oven for 55 to 60 minutes or til set. Let cool slightly. Run a knife around edge

of each custard; invert onto serving plate. Serve warm or cold with sauce. Red Currant Sauce: In saucepan, bring currants and 1/3 cup water to a boil. Reduce heat to medium low and simmer, covered for 5 minutes or til currants are softened. Using a food mill or sieve, press out seeds. Return currant puree to saucepan along with 2/3 cup water and sugar; simmer over low heat for 10 minutes or til mixture slightly thickens. Makes 2 cups. From Canadian Living Nov/93
