Cooking advice

Buy Local Food : The most local food of all comes from your own garden. Plant a new garden, enlarge the one you already have, or extend your growing season by using row covers and cloches.


Kitchen Tip : Solid disk elements and radiant elements under glass stove tops are easier to clean than conventional electric coil elements, but they take longer to heat up and use more electricity.


Dieting 101

The Glycaemic Index Diet
The glycaemic index weight loss regime is reliant on the gi index, a list showing food types and a score illustrating the speed with which the carbs in the food gets transformed to glucose in your blood stream. The claim is that slow acting foods (ie those with a low Gi score), suppress your appetite and help you to take in fewer food without feeling you are always hungry.
It is also extremely efficient for people with diabetes, as the low GI food types are helpful in controlling increases in blood glucose levels.
