Whole Wheat Pasta Dough WHOLE WHEAT PASTA DOUGH INGREDIENTS METHOD • 1 ½ cups whole wheat 1. In a food processor, place first 3 ingredients and pulse pastry flour to combine.

On a dusted work surface, start to knead dough for • 1 tbsp. Bertolli Olive Oil about 2 minutes. It should feel pliable and easy to stretch. If too wet, add a little more flour at the time until it feels slightly harder than Play-Doh. It should be very smooth. 3. Let the dough rest wrapped in plastic for 20-30 min- utes. At this stage, you can follow whatever recipe you have based on the shapes you want to eat. GLUTEN-FREE PASTA INGREDIENTS METHOD • ¾ cup corn flour 1. Sift first 6 ingredients together twice. Place them into • ½ cup quinoa flour the food processor with the blade attachment. Mix all • ½ cup potato starch the eggs into one bowl and start the mixer and add the • 2 tsp. xanthan gum eggs. Mix the dough about 3 minutes. The final dough • 1 tsp. guar gum should feel firm yet still pliable. • 1 tsp. fine sea salt 2.

Add the rest of the • 2 cups all purpose flour, flour and allow the blade to rotate continuously. When plus more for dusting the dough is ready, you should see a ball-shaped mass of flour and eggs bouncing around the canister. If the dough is still too wet to the touch, add an extra tablespoon of flour. If it is a bit dry, add a little water as needed. 3. Take the pasta out and roll/shape according to the directions of the recipe you are making. If you’re sav- ing it for later, wrap it in plastic wrap and place it in the fridge for up to 6 days. BASIC PASTA RECIPE INGREDIENTS METHOD • 1 quart Flour 1. Pour flour into a stand mixer and using a hook attach- • 1/2 quart Water ment, start on medium speed. Slowly add the water in • 2 tsp Salt and let fully combine until adding the next batch. Do this 5-6 times. You may need more or less water. De- pending on the consistency, you are looking for some- thing that can be formed together when squeezed. This is the correct texture. 2. Take out dough from the mixer and make thick “snakes” with the dough. Pass this dough through a meat grind- er attachment and slice off every 2-3 inches. Make sure to have plenty of flour so the dough doesn’t get stuck coming out. Toss all pasta in some flour to make sure it’s fully coated. 3. Bring a pot of salted water to boil. Cook pasta until no more white can be seen when cut into the cooked dough. Drain and set on a sheet tray to cool in the fridge. Makes 2-3 quarts GRANDMA’S MEAT SAUCE The original of this sauce comes from the city of Bologna in northern Italy. For hardcore flavor, you can replace a quarter of the meat with mortadella. If you have time, I bet you to make this recipe with the heat on low. It will take six to eight hours, but you will dou- ble the flavor. INGREDIENTS METHOD • 3 tbsp. Bertolli Olive Oil 1. Heat a large saucepan over medium-high heat and add • 2 cups celery, diced the Bertolli Olive Oil. When it has heated up, add the • 2 cups carrots, diced celery, carrots, onion, rosemary, and sage and cook un- • 2 cups onion, diced til caramelized, about 15 minutes. Add the garlic, cook • 1 sprig rosemary for 2-3 minutes more, then deglaze the pan with white • 1 sprig sage wine and reduce until the pan is almost dry. • 5 cloves garlic, smashed 2. Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it into small • 1 cup white wine pieces, until no traces of pink remain. Add the red wine • 2 lb. ground beef and reduce until it has disappeared. Add the tomato • 2 cups red wine sauce and then the tomato paste, and reduce until the • 2 cups Fabio’s Tomato sauce is thick and rich. If you prefer to cook the sauce Sauce faster, turn the heat to medium-high and make sure to • 1 cup tomato paste • Salt and pepper stir frequently to prevent the sauce from burning at the bottom of the pan. It will take about 2 hours this way. 3. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve over pasta. Something long like fettuccine or spaghetti works well, but anything is fine. FOUR CHEESE SAUCE INGREDIENTS METHOD • 2 cups Heavy Cream 1. In a sauce pot, slowly heat cream to a simmer. Reduce • ¼ cup Grana Padano, by a ¼, add all the cheese and turn on heat to low. Cook grated until all the cheese is melted and blend with either a • ¼ cup Pecorino, grated stick blender or stand blender. At this point the sauce • ¼ cup Fontina, shredded should be thick and creamy. If the sauce is still not as • 2 tbsp. Blue Cheese, thick then reduce on low heat until desired thickness. crumbled Season to taste with salt and pepper. • Salt and Pepper Makes 2 cups FABIO’S TOMATO SAUCE WITH OIL AND GARLIC This is the simplest of sauces out there, so simple I don’t even feel I want to call it cook- ing. But it’s also delicious, so it does deserve the name of sauce. INGREDIENTS METHOD • 6 cloves garlic 1. Smash the garlic with the back of a knife. Place the gar- • 8 tbsp. Bertolli Extra Vir- lic and 5 tablespoons of Bertolli Olive Oil in a saucepan gin Olive Oil and cook over medium heat until the garlic is golden • 1 28-oz. can of whole brown.

Cook over medium-high heat until the sauce is thick • Salt and pepper and no longer watery, about 10–15 minutes. Add the re- • 10 basil leaves maining 3 tablespoons of Bertolli Olive Oil and turn the heat to high. Stir, crushing the tomatoes with the back of a wooden spoon. Cook until the oil turns red, then turn off the heat and add the basil at the very end. Makes 8 meatballs FABIO’S MOM’S MEATBALLS This is probably the best meatball you ever had in your life, or perhaps second only to the one your grandma makes. It’s certainly easier, because there is no bothering Grand- ma here. The best thing about these meatballs is that they stay super moist regardless of how much you cook or overcook them. The tomato sauce preserves the moisture. Ev- erything about meatballs calls for soft and moist. Everything about cooking something in the oven calls for hot and dry. Soft and moist does not go with hot and dry, so meat- balls should cooked on the stovetop in marinara sauce. INGREDIENTS METHOD • 1 lb. ground beef 1. Place all ingredients except the tomato sauce, the pars- • 4 oz. whole milk ricotta ley, and the Bertolli Extra Virgin Olive Oil in a medium-size cheese bowl and mix thoroughly by hand until they are com- • 1 cup Grana Padano pletely combined and the mixture is uniformly firm. cheese, grated 2. Coat your hands in Bertolli Olive Oil, and form balls • 1 cup panko breadcrumbs slightly bigger than a golf ball. • 1 egg 3. Heat the tomato sauce in a saucepan over medium • 2 cloves garlic, minced heat, then drop the meatballs into the sauce and add • 2 shallots, minced enough water to allow the sauce to reduce and simmer • 1 tbsp. Bertolli Olive Oil but not so much that the sauce is totally liquid. Cook • Salt and pepper for about 10 minutes on one side, then turn the meat- • 2 cups Fabio’s Tomato Sauce balls over, add some more water, and cook for another • Fresh parsley, chopped, 10 minutes, using a spoon to cover the meatballs with for garnish the sauce as they simmer. Remove from heat and let • Bertolli Extra Virgin Olive rest for 5 minutes. Oil, for drizzling 4. Serve with chopped parsley, salt and pepper, more Grana Padano, and a drizzle of Bertolli Extra Virgin Olive Oil, of course! TIP: Don’t waste expensive cuts of meat on meatballs! If prepared correctly, a cheaper cut of meat like beef shoul- der/chuck, or even scraps will work perfectly.

Modification of the yeast dough recipe consisted of replacing wheat flour (type 500) with whole-wheat flour (type 2000). Energy value and the composition of basic nutrients were assessed for every tested dish. The study was conducted on 50 people with an average age of 21.7 1.1 years, and an average body mass index of 21.2 2.0 kg/m2. The GI of the analysed ± ± food products depended on the total carbohydrate content, dietary fibre content, water content, and energy value. Modification of yeast food products by replacing wheat flour (type 500) with whole-wheat flour (type 2000) contributed to the reduction of their GI and GL values, respectively. Keywords: glycaemic index; glycaemic load; yeast dough 1. Introduction In connection with the growing number of lifestyle diseases, consumers pay increasing attention to food, not only to food that have a better taste but also to food that help maintain good health.

  • Aromatic Sauces Naan Breads
    MENU DEAR GUESTS, Pakistani cuisine is a mixture of South Asian culinary traditions, characterized by a large variety and richness of flavours. In Pakistan, the dishes vary greatly depending on the region from which they come from, thus reflecting the ethnic and cultural diversity of the country. The dishes are tasty, full of aromas and spices. The cuisine comes from the culinary traditions of agricultural, hard-working people, which is why it can be fatty and caloric. Punjabi cuisine is dominated by meat bathed in thick sauces with a large amount of aromatic spices, onions, garlic and stewed vegetables. You can dip naan bread in the sauces or try Pakistani basmati rice. The taste of the sauces depends on the composition of spices used (masal) and different additives. Our restaurant serves authentic Pakistani and Indian cuisine.

  • Recipe: Overnight Porridge and Prune Bread
    RECIPE: OVERNIGHT PORRIDGE AND PRUNE BREAD Makes: 1 Bloomer-style Loaf Note: I used a Banneton basket (you can buy these on bakewithjack.co.uk/shop) to shape and prove the dough here and baked on a hot baking stone but if you don’t have these, you can prove it and bake in a standard loaf tin. Ingredients 165g Milk (at room temperature) 165g Water (at room temperature) 30g Honey 8g Fresh Yeast or 4g Dried Fast Action Yeast 350g Strong White Bread Flour, plus extra for dusting 50g Wholemeal Flour 100g Rolled Porridge Oats, plus extra for topping 8g Salt 200g Whole Dried Prunes (pitted, not from a tin) Method Making the Dough (Day 1) 1. In a large mixing bowl weigh the milk, water and honey. Whisk together then add the yeast and whisk again to dissolve the yeast. 2. Reset the scales to 0 and weigh the flours, oats and salt directly into the bowl. Mix everything together with your dough scraper to form a rough dough. 3. Leave the dough to rest and absorb all the liquid for 20-30 minutes. 1. Tip the dough out onto a clean surface and knead well for 8 minutes - don’t add any extra flour at this point, just keep scraping up the dough every once in a while if it’s sticking (see Tip below). 2. Shape the dough into a rough ball and place it back in your mixing bowl. Dust the top with a little flour, cover with a clean cloth and leave to rest at room temperature for 90 minutes.

III (May. - Jun. 2015), PP 87-90 www.iosrjournals.org Estimation of Macronutrient Content of Traditional Pakistani Chapatti/ Roti as Part of Food Exchange List Ms. Mahnaz Nasir Khan1, Dr. Samia Kalsoom2, Dr. Ayyaz Ali Khan3 1(Assistant Professor, Food Science and Human Nutrition, Kinnaird College for Women, Lahore, Pakistan) 2(Professor, Government College of Home Economics, Lahore, Pakistan) 3(Doctor, Federal Postgraduate Medical Institute, Shaikh Zayed Medical Complex, Lahore, Pakistan) Abstract: This is a small base-line study where the researcher has made a unique attempt to disseminate the varying size of chapatti into the exchange list. Chapatti as it is a staple food of Pakistan and was assessed for its size and corresponding weight so that it could be incorporated as part of the carbohydrate exchange list. Though chapatti is served with the main course of every Pakistani cuisine yet its size and weight has not been standardized and difference in size and weight will lead to varying nutrient content and consequently number of exchanges. Chapattis of three different sizes were prepared in the Food Laboratory of Food Science & Human Nutrition Department, Kinnaird College for Women, Lahore. 9 experiments were carried out and three chapattis large, medium and small were prepared using 100grams, 75 grams and 50 grams of dry flour respectively. The results revealed that small chapatti (6inch diameter) contributed 37.5 grams of carbohydrate which in turn were converted to 2.5 carbohydrate exchanges.

    Humane Living TIPS FOR THE CONSCIENTIOUS CONSUMER transportation (more recent studies suggest the number may be much higher). Mean- while, through a string of high-profile undercover investigations, The HSUS and other animal protection organizations have drawn worldwide attention to the ugly truths behind industrialized animal agribusiness. In this new reality, flexitarianism is more than just a useful label. It’s recogni- tion of a middle ground between pure veg- etarianism and the meat-centric standard American diet—a goal that even dedicated steak lovers might aim for. “A flexitarian is waking up every day and trying to be more vegetarian,” says Blatner. “It’s not going to be perfect; it’s about progress.” It’s also a trend that many animal advocates encourage as a pragmatic step toward weaning the Western world off the meat-at-every-meal habit. “Not many people are willing to go from being an ardentmeateatertoaveganovernight,”says Josh Balk, outreach director for The HSUS’s Factory Farming Campaign. “But reducing their consumption of meat, eggs, and dairy greatly helps animals.” To this end, Balk is working with the nation’s largest food service provider to The Flexitarian Way launch what he calls “perhaps the most im- portant initiative to promote vegetarian A growing movement to reduce animal product consumption eating that any company has ever done.” benefits human health, animal welfare, and the environment by JULIE FALCONER For nearly a decade, Dawn Jackson lished The Flexitarian Diet in 2008, Blatner Blatner was a closet meat eater.

  • Extra Virgin Olive Oil of Superior Quality and Specialty Food from Liguria
    extra virgin olive oil of superior quality and specialty food from liguria Commercial office: Via de Togni 20, 20123 Milan – Italy Tel. +39-02-8645 3377 Fax +39-02-865 875 [email protected] www.rosmarinofarm.com The story behind “Costa dei Rosmarini” and the person making the product. Luisa Petrelli worked for Italian wine and food magazines and is a member of the Academy of Italian Cuisine. She likes cooking and is considered particularly good in the Mediterranean cuisine. In 1991 she bought in Liguria an old farm located in front of Portofino with an extraordinary view at the Tigullio Gulf. This small property is called “Rosmarino Farm” because is surrounded by secular plants of rosemary. It has an ancient stone-house and some 1,000 olive trees growing in stripes of land sustained by dry-stone walls built in centuries. The farm can only be reached by foots through a medieval road paved in stones. The farm house is a few hundred year old and has been restored maintaining the old characteristics (fire heating, fire cooking, stone walls, wood floors, old instruments, etc.). This country-house has been published as an example of the old life-style and decoration. Since the Luisa cuisine has been always based on extra virgin olive oil, in 1995 she decided to start a limited production of high quality extra virgin olive oil for top cuisine and gourmets. The first customer was Hotel Cipriani in Venice. Since then other prestigious names and famous cooks decided to buy her oil. Today, taking advantage of the local oil masters, “Costa dei Rosmarini” is produced in Imperia in small quantities at a time and its superior quality is constantly controlled by official tasters of ONAOO (the Italian Association of Olive Oil Tasters).
