General kitchen advice

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.


Microwave Tip : Use your microwave as often as possible in the summer. You'll be more comfortable and save on air conditioning costs.


Buy Local Food : See if you can find out where your food has gone before it gets to your plate. You may be suprised by the results. Often it will make financial sense for companies to transport food enourmous distances by planes, boats and lorries. This dosn't take the environmental cost into account (which of course is likely to lead to greatly increased economic costs in the long term).

To the boiling water add onion tops, thyme, bay leaf, cloves, allspice, lemon peel and red pepper. Let boil thoroughly for about 10 minutes, then slip fish in carefully so as to avoid breaking (verbatim in old recipe). Let cook another 10 minutes and remove from water. Drain, lay on a platter, sprinkle thickly with minced parsley and serve with drawn butter sauce. Source: FISHES and FISHING IN LOUISIANA p54 Recipe date: 11/30/87
