General kitchen advice

Kitchen Tip : Match the size of the pan to the heating element; more heat will get to the pan and less will be lost to the surrounding air or found by the pan handle! A 6-inch pan on an 8-inch burner will waste over 40 percent of the energy.


Buy Local Food : Begin by taking baby steps, such as committing to spend £10 pounds a week on locally grown foods.
