General kitchen advice

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


Time for cooking is often in short supply, but you can cut cooking time in half by making large batches and eating the leftovers another day. In an age when the average American spends only 32 minutes a day preparing food, strategy is crucial to increasing your consumption of local food.


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.

Add corn and simmer for 10 more minutes. 7. Add beans and simmer for 5 minutes. 8. Warm tortillas so they are pliable, and with a slotted spoon scoop mixture in tortilla, roll, and place on dinner plate. With tablespoon, take liquid and pour over tortillas. Repeat until done. Serves 2 -3 people, depending on side dishes and hunger:) NOTE: Simmering times are approximate, but you essentially want to let it cook so the flavors have combined, but not to reduce to a true stew. It should look a soupy stew, so that you have liquid to put on tortillas. mmk3@Lehigh.EDU (MARGARET M. KING) From Fatfree Digest April-May 1994, Formatting by Sue Smith (using MMCONV)
