So, why of all places did I choose the Pacific Northwest to look at pork production, and specifically charcuterie production? vs Having visited a number of salumificio and prosciuttificio factories in Italy it was obvious that both tradition and the natural climate contributed largely to the product that was being made. When asked why something was done in a specific way, the answer would invariably be “because thatʼs how itʼs always been done”. “...among the sausage-makers of one town, let alone one province, there remains an intensely individual attitude which dismisses everyone elseʼs product out of hand. Not with disdain, mind you, for disdain implies a positive reaction, but a complete disinterest. What we were told in one street for instance, about mortadelle, would be flatly contradicted in the next.” A & A Hippsley Coxe speaking of Italian sausage-makers, from Book of Sausages Having returned to the family farm in 2004, the tradition of curing our own pork fell to me.

Here was stark evidence of my timidity, an insistence on clinging to a set of instructions, like a handrail in the dark, when after twenty years of cooking I should surely have been well enough versed in the basics to let go and trust my instincts.

While limited steps were taken by Government in 2001 to reinstate standards for school meals, commercial pressures and narrow definitions of ‘Best Value’ continue to drive down the quality of the food offered to and eaten by children at school. The provision of school meals need not contribute to ill health, social problems at school, environmental degradation, animal suffering, rising imports and rural economic decline. Through greater use of less processed, more local, fresh and organic ingredients, vitamin and mineral intake could be raised significantly while fat, sugar, salt, pesticide residues, heavy metals, antibiotics, colourings, flavourings and other food additives could all be reduced in children’s school diets.

  • Jamie Oliver Nicht Zu Kennen Ist Schwer. Als Koch Und Leidenschaftlicher Botschafter Für Gutes Essen Gehört Er Zu Den Bekanntesten Gesichtern Im Britischen Fernsehen
    Jamie Oliver nicht zu kennen ist schwer. Als Koch und leidenschaftlicher Botschafter für gutes Essen gehört er zu den bekanntesten Gesichtern im britischen Fernsehen. Selbst die hartnäckigsten Verweigerer seiner Fernsehauftritte haben eine ziemlich genaue Vorstellung davon, was sie verpassen. Durch eine Kombination aus Programmvorschauen, Auftrit- ten in Talkshows und jede Menge Presseberichte wissen auch diemeisten,dienichtzuseinen Anhängern gehören, dass der junge Jamie Oliver gerne Wendeltreppen auf dem Geländer herunterrutscht und mit seiner Vespa das mega-trendige Lon- don durchstreift, stets auf der Suche nach neuen kulinarischen Entdeckungen. Oliver-Verweigerer wissen wahrscheinlich auch, dass der junge Mann, als er reifer wurde, seine Zeit und sein Geld dafür einsetzte, arbeitslose Jugendliche für eine Tätigkeit in hochklassigen Restaurants auszubilden, und dass er später eine Kampagne für gesundes Essen an den Schulen sowie für bessere Tierschutzbestimmungen startete. Vor allem wissen Fans wie Gegner gleichermaßen, dass »unser Jamie« in der ungekünstelten Sprache des ganz normalen britischen Vol- kes spricht. Wenn Sie Wörter wie »pukka« (dt. etwa: genial), »malarkey« (dt.: Quatsch) oder »luvvly jubbly« (dt. etwa: spit- zenmäßig) zur Zubereitung von Seeteufel-Spießchen mit Ros- marin hören wollen, ist Oliver Ihr Mann. Tatsache ist, dass es nur sehr wenige Menschen geben kann, die nicht zumindest ein paar Episoden der Oliver- Serien gesehen haben. Und genauso selten sind wahrschein- lich Haushalte zu finden, in denen nicht einer oder mehrere seiner Kochbuch-Bestseller im Regal oder auf der Küchenar- beitsplatte stehen. Für Fans sind sie ein Muss als Ergänzung zu seinen Fernsehsendungen. Für alle anderen sind sie ein praktisches Weihnachtsgeschenk für die Ehefrau, den Ehe- mann, die Freundin oder die liebe Tante.
