EVANS T this time of the year many housewives wish that fruit trees would bear little and A often throughout the year rather than a lot in a comparatively short space of time. We preserve fruits to try to spread this short period, and to have them on hand to vary menus when fruit is out of season. A cupboard shelf packed with bottles of colourful, neatly arranged preserved fruits is indeed a satisfying sight. Bottling is the most popular method, with pickling being done to a smaller extent.

  • Steaming – an Outdated Method to Cook Tasteless 80'S Food Or the Definition of Trendy and Tasty Cooking?
    “Steaming – an outdated method to cook tasteless 80’s food or the definition of trendy and tasty cooking?” When you hear the word “steam”, you probably think of the 80’s diets. Think again. The method is starting to find its way back into the fine restaurants and even into people’s homes. Tasteology is the name of a new AEG-initiated documentary series uncovering the four steps of how to achieve cooking results that are multisensory, sustainable, nutritional and tasteful all at once. The four-episode series invites viewers on a culinary journey around the world to gain inspiration and knowledge far beyond the usual TV cooking shows. Tasteology will be launched on May 25 and is then available on Youtube. Heating food might be one of the most central steps of cooking, and there are many ways to do so. Boling and frying is probably the most obvious methods but there are many more ways to bring heat to the process of cooking. Steaming is one of them, and has made a comeback. Today, steaming is very popular among top chefs around the world, and has even spread into people’s homes. However, steaming is not to be confused with the term ‘sous vide’ which has also become very popular among the super trendy and curious foodies who want to brag about vacuum sealing food before cooking it at a low temperature either in hot water or with steam. “When you sous vide you’re taking away all the air and the method allows you too cook at a low temperature, just like steaming.

  • Vegetable Steaming 101
    Vegetable Steaming 101 Steaming vegetables is one of the easiest & quickest ways to get vegetables at each meal. It’s time to ditch the mushy boiled veggies and expensive steamer bags. Learn this simple cooking technique and start steaming your own fresh vitamin­packed veggies! Did you know: ● The longer you cook veggies, the more nutrients are lost. Unlike boiled vegetables, steamed veggies are cooked briefly and then removed from the heat. ● The goal of steaming is to cook the vegetables until they are no longer raw, but still bright and crisp. This preserves color and flavor, and some of the nutrient content. ● Frozen veggies work great in the steamer, so keep a bag of frozen veggies on hand for those days you can’t make it to the grocery store!

I’m supposed to drink eight ounces of KC Masterpiece daily to make the cravings go away. Th e prescription isn’t working very well. I still get the nervous trembles when I think about deliciously smoked meats. But I do know this: I’m not fond of KC Masterpiece and many other major-brand sauces—thick concoctions sweetened with corn syrup and sometimes tainted by unnatural-tasting liquid smoke. My students sometimes tell me that their lives are so busy it’s diffi cult for them to turn in work on time. Th ey ask for extended deadlines. I say, “You think you’ve got it bad? I got HEBD.
