Essential Vitamins and Minerals in Foods
Sometimes
I find myself in a rut, buying the same fruits and vegetables week by
week. Not only is this boring to eat, it also provides a limited range
of vitamins and minerals for me and my family. It might be easier to
take a multivitamin pill, but so much more effective and enjoyable to
eat nutritious foods. So I did some research on essential
vitamins and minerals our bodies need to be healthy, as well as
the best food sources for these.
My Recipes
I signed up for the social networking site, Open Source Food, where cooks from all over the world share recipes and mouthwatering photos of the food they make. I find that more than making a great dish, it's also about presentation and photographing the dish well. I love browsing around and getting inspired to make delicious and beautiful dishes and desserts for my family.
Kitchen Tools and Appliances
Having the right kitchen tools and appliances is not only key to creating delicious meals conveniently, but also plays a part in one's health. Cookware that is made from cheap metals may leak into food that is cooked in it. Teflon-lined pans, once scratched, pollute food with plastic particles. Stainless steel cookware, high density polyethylene storage containers, and the Kyocera Ceramic Knife are high quality staples for a healthy kitchen.
