General cooking tips

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).


Oven Tips : If you don't have one, consider buying a self-cleaning oven. They use less energy for normal cooking because of higher insulation levels. They also save on your rubber glove and cleanser purchases! However, if you use the self-cleaning feature more than once a month, you'll end up using more energy than you saved. When you clean the oven, do it right after cooking to take advantage of residual heat.

Ingredients And Procedures

2 cups brown rice flour

1 cup garbanzo flour -- * see note

3 cups water

Mix all ingredients. Let rest for 6-8 hours to ferment. (Cover bowl and leave on counter.) Using a small non-stick frying pan, ladle about 1/4 cup of batter into the pan, and thinly spread. Bubbles will form immediately. Do not turn until the cake has dried out a little. Loosen gently and turn to cook on other side. The first side takes about 1 1/2 minutes, the other side about 1 minute at medium temperature. Serve with a bean mixture spooned over them, or use like a crepe.

HELPFUL HINTS: May be made without allowing to ferment. Follow the above directions, omitting the time for fermentation. Stir batter often while lad;ing, it tends to separate. Griddle cakes freeze well. Cook these, then stack, wrap, and freeze. May be made several at a time on a griddle, like pancakes. Griddle cakes are very difficult for beginners to make. With a little practice they will turn out.
