Food and cooking 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!


Oven Tips : Stagger pans and baking sheets on upper and lower racks to improve airflow, and don't cover racks with foil. Food cooks more quickly and efficiently when heat circulates freely.


Diet types

The Glycaemic Index Diet
The glycaemic index diet is based around the glycaemic index, a chart showing food types and an indicator of the ease with which the glucose in the food type gets converted to sugar in the dieters blood stream. The theory is that long-acting foods (ie those food types with a low Glycaemic score), will keep you feeling full for longer and mean that you can take in less food without starving yourself.
It's also extremely beneficial for sufferers from diabetes, as the low GI foods are beneficial in preventing increases in glucose secretion.
