General cooking tips

When you are travelling, you should have a quick think about where your food has come from. When/if it is locally produced, your food is likely to be tastier, better for the local economy and fresher.

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).

Track down specials and buy in bulk. Buying in bulk means less trips, and can be a good way of reducing your food miles.

Cook safely

Dry food before putting it in a deep fat fryer (water can make the oil explode).

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.
