    And thank you for the support! A zine is about the here and now. As I am typing this we are seven months into the pandemic. The restaurant has been open for a bit, mostly for delivery. We have a little outdoor seating, in the form of a few hijacked parking spots out front. There are tables up and down the block and people don’t mind much. That’s how things are now. The city is allowing some indoor dining, but we won’t be doing that any time soon. But let’s go back a few decades for the back back story... Since the 80s, I’ve been cooking vegan food in Brooklyn as a way to bring people together. In the form of feminist potlucks or hosting brunches at any of the two dozen apartments I’ve lived in all over the borough. Feeding people in the park through volunteer organizations, or at fur-free Friday in the 90s. Even just cooking some latkes for my family at Hannukah. Really, any opportunity to serve people vegan food and I’m in. So having a vegan restaurant in Brooklyn, just a few blocks from where my grandfather grew up actually, was a natural culmination of passion, community and a sense of duty. A few years ago, when I was well into my forties, I was lucky enough to partner with Sara and Erica, whose family also has had ties to the neighborhood for decades and who also just want everyone to eat vegan. Well, great! A meal is born..

  • Full Curriculum Overview
    COOKING WITH CURIOSITY ion 1 and Nick Lee COOKING WITH CURIOSITY This curriculum is written with sixth- to ninth-grade students in mind. However, all of the lessons are easily adaptable for younger students. To adapt for earlier grades, we suggest integrating more synchronous learning and guiding students through the lessons. The curriculum is intended to be taught sequentially, starting with unit one and ending with the final project in unit four. However, each lesson and unit can be taught on its own. All lessons are written to a student audience and can be completed asynchronously with teacher supports. Curriculum Goals The goals of this curriculum are to introduce students to cooking skills and reflection practices so that they can cook confidently on their own terms. Skill development lessons and choice-based recipes encourage personalized learning. Lessons include space for students to apply those skills to personal food histories and stories. Ideally, students will walk away from these lessons with practical kitchen skills, a curiosity-driven approach to food, and a deepened connection to the dishes and recipes that are meaningful to them and their family members. Essential Questions • How might learning new skills in the kitchen encourage students to question expectations of perfection, allowing students to let themselves make mistakes and experiment? • How might skills-based kitchen lessons teach students to experiment and cook on our own terms? • How might cooking create a deeper relationship with the past—connecting food histories and family traditions and stories—and what foods are meaningful to each student? Guiding Principles The curriculum is centered on three guiding principles that support learning in the kitchen.

  • HEALTHY STEAMING GORENJE STEAM TOWER ST01 CULINARY GUIDE 2 Healthy Steaming WHAT IS COOKING with STEAM ALL ABOUT?
    gorenje.com HEALTHY STEAMING GORENJE STEAM TOWER ST01 CULINARY GUIDE 2 Healthy steaming WHAT IS COOKING WITH STEAM ALL ABOUT? Steam cooking is fast, simple, and healthy as it involves only a small amount of water which boils in contact with hot air and evaporates into steam, and requires no extra fat. During the cooking process, food is not in direct contact with boiling water and therefore won’t overcook. Rather, it will retain the precious vitamins, nutrients, natural colour, softness, juiciness, and full flavour. In China, the steam cooking method has been around for thousand years. Traditionally, food – especially rice – was steamed in simple bamboo steaming baskets. Today, steam cooking is made easy by state-of-the-art home appliances. The paramount advantage of the Steam Tower is that the perforated trays allow even circulation of the cloud of steam. This can turn any standard oven into a steam oven and allow you to enjoy as you cook healthy meals. OTHER WAYS TO USE GORENJE STEAM TOWER IN YOUR KITCHEN Slow cooking Slow cooking introduces a new dimension of ideally cooked food to your kitchen. Due to extended cooking, the meat is tenderer while still juicy and nutritious. It can be cooked along with vegetables in the bottom non- perforated tray covered with a lid. Baking Steam Tower is also an excellent baking accessory. The bottom tray can easily be used as a convenient baking tray to make deliciously crunchy dishes. Moreover, the lid can also be used a shallow baking tray when making a small amount of food, such as pizza or pastry.
