Cooking advice

Oven Tips : Close the oven door gently - slamming forces out the hot air.

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

Have a Local Food Party : Instead of counting time or distance, simply enjoy the pleasures of local food by organizing a potluck meal in which everything must be local. Keep your fingers crossed that someone will splurge on handmade goat cheese, and don’t forget some local wine, beer or juice. If you’re organizing a big catered event, the Society for Nutrition Education has a downloadable brochure to help you line up local food resources.
