General cooking tips

Buy Organic Foods : There are 12 foods where buying organic makes even more sense than normal.
According to the EWG (Environmental Working Group) the 12 most contaminated foods are:
  • apples
  • bell peppers
  • celery
  • cherries
  • imported grapes
  • nectarines
  • peaches
  • pears
  • potatoes
  • red raspberries
  • spinach
  • strawberries
All tested positive for pesticide residue – even after having been washed! Sweet bell peppers were the vegetable with the most pesticides overall, with 39 pesticides detected on a single sample. Conversely, if you're going to buy conventional, peas, broccoli, onions, pineapples, mangoes, bananas, kiwi and papaya had the lowest occurrence of pesticide residue.


Buy Fairtrade Food : The FAIRTRADE Mark is an independent consumer label which appears on products as an independent guarantee that disadvantaged producers in the developing world are getting a better deal.

For a product to display the FAIRTRADE Mark it must meet international Fairtrade standards. These standards are set by the international certification body Fairtrade Labelling Organisations International (FLO).

Producer organisations that supply Fairtrade products are inspected and certified by FLO. They receive a minimum price that covers the cost of sustainable production and an extra premium that is invested in social or economic development projects.

  • Get involved in fair trade campaigns.

Ingredients And Procedures

GORGONZOLA DIPPING SAUCE: 1/2 cup mayonnaise

1/4 cup sour cream

2 tablespoons water

1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice

1/2 cup crumbled Gorgonzola cheese

Chicken: 1/2 cup vegetable oil

1/3 cup self-rising flour

3/4 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper

4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves -- (1 1/4

pound) 1/3 cup milk

4 teaspoons butter (no substitutions) -- melted

2 teaspoons red pepper sauce

1 bulb fennel (anise) or 6 ribs celery -- cut into sticks

Make Gorgonzola Dipping Sauce: Combine mayonnaise, sour cream, water and lemon juice in small bowl; mix well. Stir in cheese and set aside. Makes 1 cup. Heat oil in large skillet over medium-high heat. Combine flour, salt and pepper in shallow pie plate. Dip chicken breasts in milk, then in flour mixture. Add chicken to skillet and cook until golden brown, 5 to 6 minutes per side. Combine melted butter and pepper sauce in medium bowl. Add chicken and toss to coat. Serve immediately with sliced fennel and Gorgonzola Dipping Sauce. Makes 4 servings. We've kept all the great flavor of the original zesty chicken wings but eliminated some of the fat by using skinless breasts.
