Food and cooking tips

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.


Most food, from fruit to fish, has a season -a time when it is abundant and at its best. Knowledge about food's seasons was once essential to survival and became culturally ingrained over the centuries. Today, we have all but lost this accumulated wisdom. Does this matter, in an age where technology can bring us anything we want to eat, whenever we want it?


Oven Tips : Use glass or ceramic pans in ovens. You can turn down the temperature about 25° and foods will cook just as quickly.


Cook safely

Always clean the grill pan after using it.
If you're called away from the cooker - by the phone, say, or by someone at the door - take pans off the heat. It's the easiest thing in the world to forget about them.

Ingredients And Procedures

4 cups shredded cabbage

2 apples -- sliced thinly

1 can pineapple chunks in juice -- drained

1/2 cup green grapes

1/2 cup red grapes

--- Dressing: ----- 1 cup mayonnaise

1/2 cup sour cream

4 teaspoons lemon juice

1 teaspoon sugar -- to taste

1 dash salt

1 dash pepper

1 dash ground cinnamon -- to taste

1. Shred cabbage very fine, place into covered bowl or plastic bag and

chill.

2. Dressing: Blend together the mayonnaise, sour cream, sugar, lemon

juice, salt, pepper and cinnamon. Chill.

3. Drain pineapple very well, wash grapes and add to pineapple; chill.

Just before serving, wash, core and slice apples into thin slices, then in half again. Mix apples along with grapes and pineapple into cabbage. Toss to blend well.

4. Add dressing and toss to coat. Don't add dressing all at once in case

you don't need it all. This is a little different than the usual coleslaw, but very good and easy to prepare. Prepare ingredients ahead of time, then put salad together whenever you wish.
