Food and cooking tips

Buying an Oven : If you need to purchase a gas oven or range, look for one with an automatic, electric ignition system. An electric ignition saves gas-because a pilot light is not burning continuously.


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.


Losing weight

The Atkins’ Diet
First invented by doctor atkins in the 1960s, the atkins diet is still one of the most popular diets today. Although highly controversial, it claims to allow weight loss but still allows you to eat many foods that are not normally available to dieters, for example beef and butter.
On the atkins diet you eat protein and fat, avoiding carbohydrates almost completely. It is referred to as a low carbohydrate/high protein, weight loss regime.
With this diet, the foods you should avoid are processed and refined sugar, milk, white bread, starchy vegetables, white rice and white flour, including, but not limited to, cereals and pasta made from white flour.
On the atkins diet the foods you are encouraged to eat continues to be nutrient-rich unprocessed foods like meat, fish and poultry. You also can eat shellfish, regular full fat cheese, butter and olive oil.

The Atkins’ Diet Theory
The logic behind the famous atkins diet is that if we take in fewer carbohydrates, we will use the fat we already carry and we will diet successfully
