An Easy Meatloaf Recipe For A Busy Cook

There are as many meatloaf recipes are there are cooks. This one is my favorite, an easy meatloaf recipe that can be varied to suit your tastes. Start with the basic recipe and add seasonings from the list below to suit your family. You can vary the meats used and the seasonings.

To keep my meatloaf recipe easy, I use ground beef. Many cooks use a combination of ground beef, ground pork or ground veal. Some use sausage in their mixture. If you desire a mixture of meats, use 1/2 to 3/4 pound of pork, veal or sausage to 1 pound of beef. Using the seasoned Italian style bread crumbs seasons the meatloaf, making this recipe easy and quick to prepare. I don't actually even measure anything. I just dump the ingredients together using a reasonable amount of each. If the mixture is too moist, add more bread crumbs. If too dry, add more ketchup. It really is an easy meatloaf recipe that is foolproof.

Italian Cooking

Basic Easy Meat Loaf Recipe

1 1/2 pounds ground chuck

3/4 cup Italian style bread crumbs

2 eggs

1 large onion, finely chopped

1 1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon pepper

1 teaspoon each garlic powder and onion powder, optional

1/4 cup catsup + more for top if desired

2 Tablespoons Worcestershire sauce, optional but good

1. Preheat oven to to 375 degrees F.

2. In a large loaf pan or ovenproof baking dish, mix all ingredients.

3. Shape into loaf shape.

4. Bake at 375 for 1 hour or until done.

5. I like to cover the top with more catsup during the last 20 minutes of baking.

You can try additional seasonings such as diced bell pepper, chopped celery leaves, minced parsley and thyme. If using sausage, try adding finely diced apple, and eliminate the garlic, onion powder and Worcestershire sauce. Small diced vegetables such as potato, carrots, or peas can be added if you like. Some cooks add chopped olives or chopped pickles or hard boiled eggs. You can substitute canned soup for the catsup, pouring more over the top as it bakes. The variations are endless.

If you are blessed with leftovers of this easy meatloaf recipe, this makes a delicious sandwich filling the next day, but don't count on it. My family eats this up.

Microwave Cooking - Tips For Using, Cooking, and Cleaning Your Microwave

I know this will give away my age group, but I can remember life without a microwave. My immature daughter thinks that means we started fire by rubbing sticks together!

The microwave oven has literally made life easier, especially for households like mine where both parents work surface the home. We want our meal times to be fast and easy, while remaining healthy and affordable. Our microwave oven is one of the appliances that help us spend less time in the kitchen.

Cooking

We use ours all year long, but it literally helps in the heat of summer to not use the oven as often and heat up the kitchen at the same time.

It sounds simple, but needs repeating - read and consequent your microwave oven manufacturer's instructions. Here's some other safety tips:

· Remember, the food will be hot! Be rigorous when removing from the appliance
· Never use your microwave if the door does not close fully or there are any other defects
· If you cover the food being cooked, be sure to leave it vented so steam can come out naturally
· Don't use any metal utensils
· Use only "microwave safe" dishes
· consequent recommended cooking times. If the time is a range (5-7 minutes for example), start with the lower time

Now some general cooking tips:

· Cut food in uniform sizes for more even cooking
· dispose evenly sized food in a circle
· consequent the formula or manufacturer's cooking directions! Stir at stated times, turn food over when required, and let food stand as directed after cooking
· Margarine can be softened by using half power for 45-60 seconds
· Wrap left over pizza slices in damp (slightly damp) paper towels and cook for 35-45 seconds. The damp paper towels help to keep the crust crispy. Otherwise, you may have a crust that you cannot bite!
· Baked potatoes are a microwave favorite. Just remember to pierce them with a knife to release steam.
· If you are defrosting meat in your microwave (which is a great idea!), be sure to cook the meat as soon as defrosted. The meat may be partially cooked and become a home for bacteria.
· Add salt after cooking. The microwaves are attracted to the salt and can cause your food to dry out.
· Use a dish larger than your food so it won't spill over while heating.

Gotta clean it!

· Place ¼-cup lemon juice and one cup water in a two-cup container. Heat until it boils (about 2 minutes on high). Leave the lemon water in the microwave someone else 5-7 minutes, then wipe clean with paper towels or a clean dishtowel.
· You can also use a blend of ½ water and ½ vinegar and do the same thing as above.

How to Cook Grouper

"Grouper" refers to a whole of different, but related, large fish preeminent for their stout bodies and big mouths.

Sport fishermen love groupers. bottom dwellers, these fish pose a singular challenge because they like to back themselves in surrounded by rocks and debris on the ocean floor. They will do this even after they have been hooked, so the fisherman has to determined "work" it out without snagging or snapping the line on something.

How To Cook

Normally, you would have to go about 20 miles offshore to find the best grounds for fishing grouper. In new years, though, the amelioration of synthetic reefs off the Atlantic and Gulf coasts of the U.S. Have brought groupers, in large numbers, closer to land.

Groupers are also being farmed in some areas now. So while some types of fish are becoming scarcer or even disappearing from store shelves, grouper is really being seen more often. This is a welcome development, because groupers are good eating.

Try grilling or baking grouper. The following recipes--one for grilling, the other for baking--are easy and delicious.

Grilled Grouper

Ingredients

2 lbs. Fresh grouper fillets

1 jar fancy mustard

1 tablespoon grated onion

1/2 tsp. Salt

1/2 tsp. Coase-ground black pepper

Directions

Mix mustard, onion, salt and pepper. Coat the fillets with this blend and marinate for 1 to 2 hours in the refrigerator. Take off fillets from fridge and place on a hot grill. Cook the grouper until done, turning once while the grilling. (Note: 1-inch-thick fillets will take almost 13 minutes to cook. Thinner fillets will take less time.)

Baked Grouper

Ingredients

1 stick butter or margarine

Juice of 1freshly squeezed lemon

2 lbs. Grouper fillets (fresh or frozen)

1 cup bread crumbs

1/4 cup parmesan cheese

1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

Directions

1. Melt the butter or margarine in a baking pan. Pour the lemon juice into the butter or margarine and mix well.

2. Lay the grouper fillets in the pan, coating one side with the butter-lemon juice mix; then turn and coat the other side.

3. Spread bread crumbs over the fish.

4. Bake at 360 degrees for 15 to 25 minutes; fish is done when it can be really flaked with a fork.

Whether grilled or baked, grouper goes well served on a bed of rice. Add lemon slices or sliced almonds for a extra touch.

Healthy Chinese Recipes - Cooking With Rice

Okay, let's start off with some simple healthy Chinese recipes, boiled rice and fried rice. One is the quintessential accompaniment to a Chinese dinner, while the other is your classic takeaway dish from the local Chinese restaurant.

But, with just a little tweaking we can make the former have a bit of life and color, and the latter an easy to knock up dish after a long day at work.

Chinese Cooking

Now, these are both suitable for beginners and vegetarians.

Boiled Rice... with a difference

Right, this is using a rice cooker. All cup measurements refer to the rice cooker cup, which is about 3/4 size of a US measuring cup.

1. Measure the rice. 1 1/2 cups is enough for two people.
2. Wash the rice until the water runs clear.
3. Put the rice in the pot and add water. 2 cups of water per cup of rice is enough.
4. Add some extras - sweet corn, peas, sun-dried tomatoes, diced carrots, pineapple chunks. These will add flavor, color and nutrition to the rice!
5. Put the pot back in the cooker, close the lid and switch on the cooker.
6. Don't open the lid until the cooker switches itself off. That's right, it will do the rest of the work for you.
7. Dish up.
8. Please remember, if the cooker doesn't keep the rice warm, to refrigerate all uneaten rice ASAP.

Do you like your rice hard or soft? I'm a hard man myself, but enough boasting, ha-ha! Basically, if you like your rice soft then add more water, and vice versa.

Fried Rice

Right, this is great for using leftover rice. You can add loads of stuff. This recipe will be a simple, egg fried rice. For you meaties you can add pre-cooked shrimps or meat strips to the wok in step 5.

1. Prepare your ingredients - beat one egg per person, chop up some spring onions, dice up some veggies (or use canned or frozen ones).
2. Add a little oil to the wok (or large frying pan). Heat up high and when the oil is hot, add the eggs. Cook until set and then remove from wok and put to the side.
3. Add some more oil and let it get hot. Fry your onions until they just start to turn golden. Remove from wok and set aside.
4. Add more oil if needed and keep the heat medium-high. Put in your veggies and cook until tender, but not too long. We don't want to lose all their goodness!
5. Add a bit more oil. Throw in the rice, eggs and onions. Add a teaspoon of soy sauce (or more if you like it). Cook through, and make sure to keep an eye on the rice to stop it burning. You'll need to do lots of tossing and flipping with the rice to make sure everything is getting cooked through. It's sweaty work!
6. Serve.

Please note, many Chinese people like to add a teaspoon of crushed red chillies at step 5. If you're feeling adventurous or you've got a cold, I suggest you do the same!

What, no meat?

Now the beauty of rice is that apart from being a gorgeously healthy Chinese food, simple to cook, and cleverly versatile, it is also a perfect vegetarian food. So, the recipes above are all Chinese vegetarian recipes, too, though they can be easily adapted to include meat if that's your cup of... um... gravy?

So, there you go two healthy Chinese recipes that you can go and make straightaway!

The Best Italian Cook Book?

Which is the best authentic Italian cook book? This is a question I am asked often. I have lived in Italy for ten years and many of my family and friends in the USA, Australia and the UK ask me for advice as to which Italian cookbooks give you a real "taste" of Italy.

English language "Italian cookbooks" are everywhere but in my opinion very few have much in common with genuine authentic Italian cuisine. My wife, who is Italian and an excellent chef, is in full agreement.

Italian Cooking

There are some notable exceptions however and I hope to be able to present these in a short series of articles. The books I have selected fall into four categories. The first category is devoted to those books that give an overview of Italian cooking and feature recipes from all the regions of Italy. The other three categories focus on some of the lesser known but exceptional gourmet regions of Italy.

Well let's get on with the first of my picks:

Cucina of Le Marche: A Chef's Treasury of Recipes from Italy's Last Culinary Frontier

Le Marche has very few good English language cookbooks focusing on the cuisine of the region. This is the best; the author is a native of Le Marche and an award winning chef. The recipes are 100% authentic. A refreshingly unpretentious book by a chef who will no doubt become a lot more famous in years to come.

For the other essential Italian food books you can wait for my next article.

To begin with, find a base red or white that you enjoy. For marinades, sautéing, chicken, and seafood, Sauvignon Blanc is an perfect choice. For red meats or sauces with a red meat base, a Chianti or Cabernet Sauvignon is perfect.

Try to avoid wines that have a heavy flavor from oak. It tends to give the food a bitter taste. In addition, if you use a wine that is quite sour or very fruity, the flavors will be very prevalent in your dishes. This is one reckon to avoid the very cheapest bottles of wine.

Tips for Cooking with Wine

The more you cook with wine, the better you will get at determining how it will work on and flavor your dishes. Here are six good tips to help you get started:

· Replace the water in a method with your favorite wine.

· Add a tablespoon or two of red wine to your brown gravy. Let it simmer for a bit to let the alcohol evaporate.

· Make a marinade of your favorite flavored oil and wine for meat and poultry.

· It is best to heat the wine for meat dishes before you add it. However, avoid boiling it because it will lose a lot of its flavor. Warm wine helps to tenderize meat, while a cold wine can make your meat a limited bit tougher.

· Heavier red meats, such as roasts, need a dry red wine. Lighter meats, such as pork, poultry, and fish, do well with a white wine.

· You can equilibrium a meal quite nicely by serving the same wine you used in your recipes. If you want a different wine, at least keep similar, such as reds with reds.

A Final Thought

Cooking with wine is a great way to add a new size to your favorite recipes. It only takes some experimentation to comprehend which wines are your favorites to cook with!

Italian Food Culture

The Italian food culture concerns not only what we see at Italian tables or in a rich Italian restaurant menu.

It is something much deeper in Italians' DNA.

Italian Cooking

Italians have some beliefs that go beyond education or tradition.

Concerning pasta

An easy example could be the pasta shapes and their seasonings. Considering that among dry pasta (the ones you usually buy inside paper or plastic bags that last for long) the difference is only the shape of it, nothing else, the shape itself is something very important for Italians.

There's a traditional pasta sauce recipe from Roma region called Pasta all'amatriciana (it's a tasty sauce made with tomatoes and bacon). Usually it's served using the bucatini pasta (kind of huge spaghetti with a hole in its middle). An Italian woman was disgusted hearing her hairdress telling her colleague that preferred it with short pasta. She said: "Don't ask me why. It just is as it is. Amatriciana must go with long pasta. How can one imagine of cooking it with short pasta?" The same goes for pasta with oil and garlic (aglio e olio), you probably will never see it served using any other pasta that isn't spaghetti.

Cappuccino

A lot of people around the world drink coffee and milk. In Italy, people use to drink cappuccino - a coffee and milk with addition of milk foam.

All around the world people drink coffee and milk whenever feels like doing it. Italians will never ask for a cappuccino in the evening! Why? It is just as it is. It's not time to have a cappuccino. Cappuccino is for breakfast!

Italians do not accept someone who asks a cappuccino after, or even worse, together with dinner. They really twist their nose when they see someone doing it.

Drinking

In Italy there are bars everywhere. There are many small cities, having about 1,500 inhabitants that have about 20 bars.

It happens because drinking in Italy is associated with greetings. When an Italian meet a friend, it's natural to "drink something together".

If it happens to serve a drink to someone seat besides you, never turn the jar or the bottle against the natural way of your hand. For example, if you have the jar in your right hand, the glass must be on the left side, never behind, on the right side of your right hand. Otherwise it may not bring good luck.

Meals

In many countries it's common to eat a salad as entrance.

Not in Italy.

Italians eat salad as a side plate for the second dish. Now you can find some tourist restaurants in main cities that propose rich salads for the tourists...but Italians never ask for them!

Italians respects lunch time. If you come to visit Italy and want to have lunch, pay attention to restaurants' closing times. Usually after 2:30pm the kitchens are all closed and you'll have to eat a sandwich. If an Italian is traveling outside Italy, he will probably look for a restaurant during lunch time. If he doesn't or cannot find one, and finds one at 3:00pm, he'll probably say that is not hungry anymore, that he uses to eat at that time otherwise he loses his hunger.

Italians trust their food. While most of the tourists look for local food, considering it part of the vacation, it's very common to see Italians looking for Italian restaurants while abroad. They seem to be afraid of new and different food.

They begin to open themselves to new food when go outside Italy more often and learn to appreciate and trust foreign cuisines.

Other than trusting and loving their own food, Italians hate when people try to mix other food cultures with Italian ones. An example? Never add ketchup to a pasta dish! You cannot imagine how your Italian friend will stare at you if you try to do so.

The interesting in all these is that they don't do it for being presumptuous, but they really believe you're wasting your taste. Italian culture still has a lot of "musts" that go with generations that just follow it without knowing why it is done in this or that way.

Use Spices To Cook Like A epicurean On A Paupers Budget!

Don't have the money to make delectable dishes?

Or just don't know the secrets of flavoring with spices
and herbs, and development food stretch?

How To Cook

The old is never right no matter what your income is.

If you have the money to buy adequate food to at least feed your family
then you have adequate money to make whatever you feed them enjoyable,
even if it's a vegetable dish.

Yes, with the right spices or herbs, and recipes, the children in
your family will come to love vegetables. My family has several
favorite veggie dishes, that our kids like so much they want seconds.
And the main private to them are the different spices we use.

These dishes range from ratatouille, eggplant parmigiani, to stewed
tomatoes and stuffed zucchini.

Just as they do with vegetables; spices, herbs, and sweeteners are
the secrets to development all foods delicious.

These three food miracle workers can be relatively uncostly if you
know where to look.

In most health food market (and in elect supermarkets in growing
numbers) there is a wondrous invention called a Bulk
section.

I'm sure every person knows what this is, but in case you don't
I'll explain:

It's a section of a store that has all types of different
flours, beans, cereals, spices, herbs, and much more.

Each of which are in isolate packaging or large plastic buckets
with a scoop, that allows you to buy as much or as limited as you want
of what ever spices or other food they carry.

The store provides you with bags and twist ties, for your
convenience.

Spices are an excellent example of how cheap it can be to shop in
bulk. Most small jars of spices or herbs like basil, oregano, thyme,
etc... Cost any where from 2 dollars a bottle to 4.99 (which is
technically 5 dollars a bottle).

In a bulk section you can buy these same spices, getting twice as
much (or more) for less than a dollar or a limited over.

Talk about savings! Herbs and all kinds of spices are much
cheaper bought this way than paying the extravagant prices you are
charged for a pre packaged bottle of the same spices.

Flour and other cooking and baking necessities are also much cheaper
if bought in a bulk section.

Note: buying in a bulk section does not mean you have to buy a
lot of everything! You could buy only one cup of flour in a bulk
section if you wanted to or one tablespoon of any spices or
herbs.

Ideally you should shop colse to at whatever different market in your
area have bulk sections, and collate prices to make sure you're
getting the cheapest price.

Bring a calculator to the store and be ready to do a limited brain
work to shape it out.

Another money salvage trick is to substitute ground turkey for ground
beef in recipes. Here you might prefer the taste of beef but in terms
of the money you save it will verily taste heavenly to your
budget.

You can spice up bland omelets, scrambled eggs, soups, meat patties
and more with the correct spices, and herbs.

Here is a recipe for deliciously spicy eggs, that won't dent
your wallet:

For scrambled eggs try using:

1/4 teaspoon thyme and pepper

1/2 teaspoon salt and oregano

3 eggs

Mix the eggs, spices, and herbs together in a bowl.

Heat a frying pan on medium heat until very hot, then add your oil
(preferably olive oil or coconut oil) to the pan. Wait a few seconds
until the oil starts to smoke, then pour the eggs from your bowl into
the pan.

Have a fork in your hand ready to scramble the eggs with, because
they'll start cooking instantly. Scramble the eggs for 30
seconds to a minute. Then use a spatula to scoop them out onto a
plate.

Do yourself a favor and supervene these tips to start salvage money today
and serving tasty dishes for your family.

Three different Ways to Cook Eggs for breakfast

Eggs are all at once edible, traditional, improbable and versatile. Many of us have been eating eggs for morning meal since before we can remember. I used to think that the only way to cook eggs for morning meal was fried or scrambled. Undoubtedly, those are probably the two most former ways of cooking eggs. I want to show you three different ways to cook your eggs for breakfast, to add some excitement and collection to your morning meal.

1. Make an egg pancake. To do this, whisk together 2 or 3 eggs along with some finely chopped onion or garlic and spices of your choice. Pour this aggregate into a warmed, greased fry pan. The aggregate should be 1/4 inch thick. Cook until it's set on the lowest and you can lift it up without it falling apart. Flip over to cook the other side. Remove cooked egg pancake to a plate and top with one of the following: salsa and sour cream, whipped cream and fruit, pancake syrup or topping of your choice.

How To Cook

2. Try poached eggs for a change. Poached eggs are light and have a creamy texture. For those who are following a reduced fat diet, poached eggs don't wish adding any fat. To poach an egg, you need to bring about 1 inch of liquid practically to boiling, and then crack an egg into the liquid, slowly letting the egg slide out of the shell so you don't break the yolk and you don't get splashed. You can poach eggs in plain water, in slightly sweetened water, in milk, or even in a very watery food such as canned spinach. Simmer for a few minutes until egg white is set and yolk is cooked to your desired consistency. If using canned spinach, empty entire can together with juice into a pot and bring to a simmer. slowly crack desired amount of eggs on top, leaving space between each. Simmer to cook egg, using the pan lid if desired to speed up the cooking. The egg whites take on a small bit of the green color of the spinach they are cooked on, so if you want to cook up some ham to go with it, you could have your green eggs and ham.

3. Toad in a hole is the third way to go. I know, this might be old hat for some of you, but honestly, I have found that many population have not tried this before. If you have, then try one of my variations to make it different. To start out, warm up a fry pan and grease it. Take a cup and invert it on each slice of bread to cut a hole in the center. Take out the town piece of bread and store it to use for something else. Lay the bread in the pan and crack an egg right in the town where the hole is. The egg will expand to fill the hole and will bond to the edges of the cut bread. When the egg is done on one side, flip the egg and bread over to cook the other side. Serve on a plate with syrup on the side. Variations to make this different would be to whisk the raw eggs in a bowl and add chopped vegetables, then pour 1/3 cup of this aggregate into each bread hole. You could serve the cooked toad in a hole with peanut butter and jam, or with whipped cream and fresh fruit. The variations are only small by your imagination.

Have fun experimenting with different ways of cooking eggs for your breakfast.

Japanese Hibachi Cooking - Free Recipes Inside

Are you a fan of yakitori? Japanese food is one of the healthiest foods worldwide, and so it is not surprising to know that the Japanese often grill their food. This grilling is called hibachi, and Japanese hibachi cooking is not only paramount in Japan, but in other parts of the world as well. These meats on sticks are a favourite of many, as these taste good, and come fresh and hot; grilled over direct fire.

The best way to do Japanese hibachi cooking is to grill over fire-and not a hot plate. The fire gives your meat a smoky, authentic flavour, which lacks in those which are prepared using metal plates. One example of Japanese hibachi cooking is the sukiyaki. A favourite among many, sukiyaki involves grilling thin slices of beef and then adding vegetables and noodles or rice.

Cooking

But whether it is beef or chicken you want to grill, the principle holds the same: use authentic over the fire grillers. Also, many agree that one of the secrets of great Japanese hibachi cooking is the sauce.

A great formula for shrimp sauce is this: you will need two cups of soy sauce, a cup of whipped cream, one-third cup of ground, roasted sesame seeds, a pinch of garlic powder and a teaspoon of dry mustard (dissolve it in a teaspoon of water). Place all ingredients except the cream in a blender for fifteen seconds. In a saucepan, put the blend and the whipped cream, stirring it over low heat.

Another example of great sauce is naturally a blend of the following: a cup of mayonnaise, a integrate of teaspoons of sugar, one and a half teaspoons of chilli sauce, a half teaspoon of paprika, half teaspoon of garlic powder, half teaspoon of lemon pepper, a quarter teaspoon of black ground pepper, one and a half tablespoons of catsup, and a pinch of salt. Use these sauces and your grilled meats will have that extra zest and tanginess.

How Long to Cook Chicken Wings

People honestly love to eat chicken wings. There are so many ways to put in order chicken wings and they make breathtaking appetizers and party foods. One of the questions I am often asked is, "How long to cook chicken wings".

Chicken wings can be cooked using several different methods. I prefer deep frying wings but you can also pan fry your wings or bake them. Let's take a look at each formula and you can settle for yourself which formula is best for you.

How To Cook

Before you cook your chicken wings you will need to make sure they are fully thawed. This can be ended by letting them sit in the refrigerator for a day or two before cooking. When you are ready to cook your wings, rinse them in cold water and pat them dry with a paper towel.

If you will be deep frying your chicken wings be sure they are dry before placing them in the hot oil to avoid painful splatters. Heat your oil to 375 degrees. Once the oil is hot you can begin cooking your wings. Fill the fryer basket with a single layer of wings. You want the oil to just cover the wings when lowered into the oil. Lower the wings into the oil moderately and cook for 12 to 15 minutes. This will make a nicely browned chicken wing that is crispy on the covering and juicy and tender inside.

You may also opt to pan fry your wings if you do not have a deep fryer. This would be my second choice. Use a large frying pan for this method. Pour sufficient oil in the pan to cover the bottom. Heat the oil over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot place your wings in a single layer into the hot oil. Cook the wings for 6 to 7 minutes and then turn them over to cook for other 6 to 7 minutes. You could also use a wok to fry your wings. This will also make a nice crispy covering and tender inside.

My least favorite formula of cooking chicken wings is to bake them. Baking them is a much healthier alternative to all of the frying but the wings will not be nearly as crispy. However if you need to bake your wings heat the oven to 400 degrees. Place the wings in a glass baking dish that has been coated with a wee non-stick cooking spray. Bake the wings for about 30 to 40 minutes. You want to be sure the juices run clear from the wings.

Well there you go three methods to cook chicken wings. All the time remember to wash your hands and all utensils when working with raw chicken. Enjoy those tasty wee treats.

For The Love Of Italian Food - Pasta And Cauliflower Recipe

Mangia! Mangia! I just can't get enough of the great taste of Italian foods. Italian pasta, pizza, pork, beef and seafood recipes are much a part of my everyday life.

http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6137/6206272195_fd0881f44d_b.jpg

Growing up Italian in Chicago has been a wonderful culinary experience to say the least. The many different restaurants and families from different regions of Italy allowed me to taste some of the most delicious food in the world.

Italian Cooking

Food always conjures up great memories. When I cook something I haven't had in a while, it always seems to bring me back to the last time and place I did have it. I think it's the closest thing to a "time machine" we'll ever experience.

Years ago at every family gathering my Grandmother Theresa made a simple dish of pasta and cauliflower. Oh how we craved for this dish after she was gone. It was filling and delicious and you just could not get enough.

So finally one day I said I was going to try and make it. I just had to have it again. There was just no way was I going to live out the rest of my life without ever eating this dish again. Determined, I tried many times and one day I came as close as I possibly could to recreating her recipe. As we all know Grandmothers did not measure anything, so this was not an easy task.

Here's my version of my Grandmother's recipe. I hope you an your family enjoy it as much as mine does

Grandma Theresa's Pasta and Cauliflower

I hope this recipe makes many memories for your family and friends.

Chinese Cooking Techniques

The collection of Chinese food dishes and Chinese food recipes ready today is wider than in any former decade. One can legitimately find Chinese food recipes for Chop Suey, which is not an authentic Chinese dish, along side of Hunan Beef. It is captivating to note that what many refer to as Chow Mein noodles is legitimately a simpler crunchy version of the real thing.

http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6030/6206339003_bb4efce200_b.jpg

In centuries past when the Chinese still used forks and knives is when the foundation for modern day Chinese cooking was formed. This is back when the cutting techniques and delicate flavors came together to form salutary hearty meals.

Cooking

This is also when the three original Chinese cooking techniques were formed.

The first Chinese cooking technique is stewing. Stewing can be either red or clear and is the simplest of the three methods. In clear stewing the clear liquid is brought to a boil and then allowed to simmer until the food is just tender. In red stewing a small amount of sugar and soy sauce is added which gives the stewed food a reddish tinge.

The second Chinese cooking technique is steaming. Steaming can be either wet or dry. The Chinese have used steaming as a original cooking formula for over 3000 years. Before ovens were coarse place steaming was a favorite formula which allowed for moist flavorful food that retained most of its nutrients.

Frying is the third of the original Chinese cooking techniques. Frying can be either deep frying in oil or sautéing. When deep frying the food is submersed in hot oil and allowed to cook until it floats. In sautéing the meat, vegetables and garnishes are cooked swiftly over high heat in a small amount of fat.

Alkaline Diet Recipes

Welcome to an article about alkaline diet recipes. First, a little background info on the alkaline diet and then we can get into a few recipes. The alkaline diet was discovered by Dr. Robert Young. Through his study of the blood he found that healthy blood was a direct reflection of a healthy or alkaline diet. So he basically determined foods to be either alkalizing or acid causing. He found that when a person eats foods that are primarily alkalizing the body as a whole runs at an optimum level.

http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6136/6195307121_252d8f1d6a_b.jpg

The Alkaline Diet Recipes are recipes that are designed to alkalize the body and therefore would consist only of food that is alkalizing to the body.

Italian Cooking

It is recommended that you start of your day with alkaline diet recipes that can be blended into a drink. The idea behind this is that the liquid form of these nutrients is more easily assimilated by the body. One of the alkaline diet recipes is as follows:

Super Alkalizing Green Smoothie

1 Cup of Good Water: alkaline water if available(fresh spring water is typically alkaline)

1 cup of organic blueberries

2 large unripe bananas

2handfuls of spinach,kale, chard, or some dark green leafy vegetable

seaweed-arame, kelp, dulse

1 shot of wheat grass juice

Combine the ingredients in a blender with some ice cubes. Mix thoroughly, and enjoy. A delicious start to your list of alkaline diet recipes, this smoothie will supercharge your day.

The next of the alkaline diet recipes is my personal favorite. It is very simple to make and quite tasty.

Spring Salad

Organic Spring Salad Mix

Add whatever greens you lie (kale, chard, spinach, collard)

cucumbers

onions

Summer black radishes

Toss the salad how you like and use this dressing.

Olive oil

fresh squeezed lemon juice

table spoon sea salt

dried crushed basil

dried crushed oregano

The amounts for the above recipe can be adjusted to your liking. The dressing tastes best when it is allowed to sit a day before you use it. Both of these alkaline diet recipes are extremely alkalizing. They contain very alkalizing ingredients.

Another thing that I like to to with my salads and other recipes, is to add freshly sprouted sprouts to them. Sprouting is an easy and extremely cheap way to add super alkalizing and biogenic foods to your alkaline diet recipes. Mung beans, broccoli, and lentils are all very good choices for sprouting. To sprout all you do is soak seeds in a jar overnight. Then you rinse the seeds and drain them 2-3 times a day for around 7 days. Keep the sprouts in a dark room or covered with NO light until the last day. Then set them in a spot where they can get moderate sunlight for about six hours. You will notice that they start to turn green from as they begin to produce chlorophyll. Finally, add the sprouts to your favorite alkaline diet recipes and enjoy!
