Food tips

Buy Local Food : Take a child shopping with you, pick up one of the offending products and say quite loudly "Well we’re not buying that, think of the energy it’s used up just getting here!"


Try Eating Raw Food : You need a balance of three basic food groups as most of your diet:
  • sweet fruits (apples, oranges, berries, melons, etc.)
  • green leaves (dark lettuce, kale, collards, spinach, etc.)
  • raw plant fats (avocados, olives & their oil, coconuts & their oil, nuts & seeds, durian)
    • Eat lots of sweet fruit, lots of green leaves, and some fat (as dressing, pâté, hummus, etc.). Add vegetables as desired, and sprouted grains and legumes occasionally. Try fruit for breakfast and snacks; greens, veggies and fat for lunch and dinner.


    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.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease and flour an 8 1/2 X 4 1/2 inch loaf pan. Cream sugr, shortening and almond

paste until light and fluffy. Beat in egg yolks. Sift flour, baking powder and salt together. Add to creamed mixture alternately with milk, starting and ending with flour. Add vanilla extract. Beat until smooth. Beat egg whites until they form soft peaks. Gradually beat in 3 tablespoons sugar. Beat until egg whites are stiff but not dry. Beat 1/4 of the egg whites into batter. Fold batter into remaining egg whites being careful not to overmix. Remove 1/2 cup batter and mix well with the cocoa. Pour plain batter into prepared pan. Spoon chocolate batter on top in blobs and marbleize with a knife or spatula. Sprinkle with almonds. Bake for 45 minutes, or until golden brown and cake shrinks from sides of pan. Cool on wire rack before turning out. I was looking at a cookbook from a 100 year old Savannah, Georgia Jewish bakery called Gottlieb's and I found this recipe. Nancy Berry -----
