IntroductionHealthy food is a requirement for all people. In this age of so much synthetic food, you will want to give your family something that is as wholesome as it could be. You ill not want to offer them synthetics which have the longterm effect of generating illnesses. But cooking healthy foods does not come easily. You have to practice a lot about it. You need to find the right resources, adopt the ideal cooking method and shop for the ingredients in the right way. Here we take a look at how to prepare delicious dishes for your family without necessarily spending thousands of Dollars.

Give your self timeMeals done in a rush will end up as being unhealthy. Take your time to plan your healthy food. In the process, think about where you can buy your ingredients and decide on whether you even have the time to complete the cooking for the recipe you want to make.

Buying your ingredientsIt pays to avoid buying packaged food to reprocess into meals. At best, buy from the grocery shop or the Farmers’ Market. These places have wholesome products that will guarantee you a healthy cooking and right taste for the food.

Time to buyUse the ingredients as soon as you buy them. Frozen foods lose most of their vitality before they are cooked. With the exception of dry ingredients like garlic and chilli, you must always cook your food with fresh products as they retain most of their nutrients. Buying and storing your stuff for weeks in anticipation of a meal will further degrade its nutritional value.

Using cooking appliancesToday, many women will want to rely on electrical cooking crockery like pressure cookers to prepare their healthy food. Though these utensils help us get quicker meals, they may also endanger our health by way of coking the food too fast or too long. For the best results, it is recommended that you set the timer of the oven or rice cooker to the required period for your meals so they don’t get over boiled and consequently lose their taste and value.

PastryPastry dries up with time and thus lose their quality as time progresses. If you will use bread in your food, make you bake it fresh or at least keep in the refrigerator to preserve its freshness. Then again for wholesomeness, avoid crumbs. Use whole bread for your meals.

Frozen foodFrozen foods are to be avoided at all costs but when it becomes inevitable, try buying early or midweek when the stores would have replenished their stock purchased over the weekend. Do away with ice-hard products which require extensive thawing to be ready for use.

Conclusion

By following this simple procedure, you can get your health back on track. It does not cost to cook healthy. It is only a matter of knowing what to do and going by it.

Cooking with Youngsters; Have Fun and Learn

A lot of opportunities can be found to spend time with youngsters, teaching them introductory cooking, having a good time, building self-esteem and supporting family growth. Many youngsters, (we’ll just address girls here if we may, although boys might have the same interest), start showing significant interest in family responsibility type activities at 8 to 10 years. This can be manifested in many ways as there are so many things that must be accomplished in the typical household. Cooking together can be a great way for girls to really get to know various members of the family or community as well as getting lessons with lifetime benefit.

When girls start to indicate an interest in cooking, it may or may not be with their mothers. If it is with their mothers the interest is likely more attuned to helping out; if the interest is indicated with another family member it possibly indicates a desire to learn a new activity.

The age and experience of a young girl impacts the complexity of the dish and recipe, time spent actually cooking, and of course safety concerns. Youngsters are learning and maturing very rapidly and there can be a large difference between ages 8 and 10. Another important consideration is how “serious” joint cooking activities will be. On the younger end the project might need to be seen as a form of play, with plenty of time for zigs and zags back and forth to other activities. As the young cooks mature, they will have more interest in “staying the course” through a dish or recipe, and then moving to another possibly overlapping dish. It is sometimes a challenge to pick just the right level of encouragement to “stay on task” vs. letting the right amount of play time in. It’s usually the wise choice to make it a lot of fun and let the concentration come naturally with maturity.

Choosing appropriate recipes is easy and if possible can be done jointly with the aspiring cook. Desserts are always good choices led by cupcakes, brownies, fruit bars, etc. Another good choice because it is easy and you get a lot of output is to make pancakes. There are an unlimited number of choices of course. Simple recipes and short preparation times are important early on in the process.

When girls at these ages have the opportunity to make something real, with new skills and having fun, and having that result be something that is good to eat and brings a lot of compliments, they get an important sense of satisfaction and self-esteem. As the joint cooking proceeds a steady improvement will be seen in handling the various tasks, moving from the small steps to overseeing the entire recipe.

If you are very fortunate and have the opportunity to share your cooking experience and knowledge with a young girl and get some consistency to the activity, there are some very attractive and appropriate gifts that

Question by natalia1403: Does anyone know how to cook Greek dessert “Galakta Buriko”?
hi, everyone! i have this big question i wasn’t able to find the answer until now. when i was on holiday once i ate at a restaurant this dessert called “Galakta Buriko”, which the waiter told us was Greek (we were not in Greece). and it was delicious. it had a white-yellow cream which was probably made with milk, eggs, sugar and lemon, a little vanilla maybe, similar to the cream from the eclairs, between two thin pieces of pastry and this was served a little warm, but with a scoop of ice cream on top, which was melting just a little and on top of the ice cream there was a little whip cream and on top of all that there was a thin line of a sweet-sour syrup poured on and around it. what can i say…i ate two portions…deliciousssssss…so if anyone knows the recipe, please share it with us and you will make everyone who tries it a happy person

BTW, it is pronounced Galaktoboureko.
I hope you enjoy. Bon apetite

INGREDIENTS
6 cups whole milk
1 cup semolina flour
3 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 cup white sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
6 eggs
1/2 cup white sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3/4 cup butter, melted
12 sheets phyllo dough
1 cup water
1 cup white sugar

DIRECTIONS
Pour milk into a large saucepan, and bring to a boil over medium heat. In a medium bowl, whisk together the semolina, cornstarch, 1 cup sugar and salt so there are no cornstarch clumps. When milk comes to a boil, gradually add the semolina mixture, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon. Cook, stirring constantly until the mixture thickens and comes to a full boil. Remove from heat, and set aside. Keep warm.
In a large bowl, beat eggs with an electric mixer at high speed. Add 1/2 cup of sugar, and whip until thick and pale, about 10 minutes. Stir in vanilla.
Fold the whipped eggs into the hot semolina mixture. Partially cover the pan, and set aside to cool.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Butter a 9×13 inch baking dish, and layer 7 sheets of phyllo into the pan, brushing each one with butter as you lay it in. Pour the custard into the pan over the phyllo, and cover with the remaining 5 sheets of phyllo, brushing each sheet with butter as you lay it down.
Bake for 40 to 45 minutes in the preheated oven, until the top crust is crisp and the custard filling has set. In a small saucepan, stir together the remaining cup of sugar and water. Bring to a boil. When the Galaktoboureko comes out of the oven, spoon the hot sugar syrup over the top, particularly the edges. Cool completely before cutting and serving. Store in the refrigerator.
