Cooking advice

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.


Buy Local Food : Bringing more local produce into your kitchen may leave you wondering what to do with unusual things such as Jerusalem artichokes, kohlrabi or mizuna. “I get requests all the time from CSAs asking permission to put my recipes into their delivery boxes,” Madison says. “I always say yes.” Get a good produce-based cookbook and don’t be reluctant to ask for recipe ideas from growers.

The Glycaemic Index Diet
The gi index weight loss program is reliant on the glycaemic index, a list showing types of food and an indicator of the ease that the glucose of the food gets changed to sugar in the dieters system. The claim is that slow release foods (ie those with a low Gi score), suppress your appetite and help you to eat fewer food without being miserabl;e.
It's also especially beneficial for folk with diabetes, as the low GI types of food are useful in managing surges in glucose secretion.
