    TODAY'S MAIN TOPIC:

    Intentional effort to avoid seed oils is a challenge, but rewarding.

    Avoiding seed oils can be a considerable challenge given their pervasive presence in the majority of processed and packaged foods. These oils, derived from seeds like soybean, sunflower, and corn, have become widely used due to their economic advantages and long shelf life. However, these convenient and inexpensive ingredients often come at the cost of our health. Seed oils are highly processed and typically contain high levels of omega-6 fatty acids, which, when consumed in excess, can cause inflammation and increase the risk of chronic diseases such as acne, eczema, skin cancer, macular degeneration, heart disease, and obesity. While steering clear of these oils may be difficult, doing so is crucial for maintaining optimal health and preventing an array of potential health issues. A conscious effort to read ingredient labels, and opt for food made with healthier cooking oils such as olive or avocado oil, butter, tallow and cooking from scratch using whole ingredients can significantly contribute to reducing the ingestion of harmful seed oils.

    What's Cookin:

    • Fig tart-simple pastry dough with black mission figs and a glaze of apricot preserves

    TODAY'S MAIN TOPIC:

    Authentic Italian pasta dishes are cooked in a pan sauce, not covered with sauce.

    Real Italian plates of pasta are made in the pan to finish cooking, a technique that truly captures the essence of traditional Italian cuisine. After boiling the pasta until it is al dente, it is transferred to a flavorful pan sauce where the magic happens. The pasta eagerly absorbs the vibrant flavors of the sauce, allowing the dish to become an exquisite symphony of taste and texture. This method ensures that every strand is delicately coated with the sauce, resulting in a harmonious marriage of ingredients. The pasta's final moments in the pan infuse it with incredible depth, richness, and complexity, creating a dish that is simply irresistible.

    Italian pasta dishes are renowned for their emphasis on seasonal and regional ingredients. This culinary philosophy celebrates the abundance of fresh and locally sourced produce, ensuring that each pasta dish reflects the distinctive flavors and characteristics of a particular season and region. In the spring, delicate pasta dishes are often adorned with vibrant peas, asparagus, and tender artichokes, capturing the essence of renewal and freshness. In the summer, luscious tomatoes, fragrant basil, and vibrant zucchini take center stage, adding a burst of color and flavor. Autumn pasta dishes showcase earthy mushrooms, hearty squashes, and warming spices, perfectly capturing the cozy and comforting spirit of the season. Winter brings robust flavors to the table, with pasta dishes featuring indulgent cheeses, rich ragù sauces, and robust root vegetables, providing comfort and warmth during the colder months. By incorporating seasonal and regional ingredients, Italian pasta dishes pay homage to the bountiful nature of the land and the diverse culinary traditions of each region, resulting in a truly authentic and delightful dining experience.

    506-How Eating Local Food Helps Climate Aug 11, 2023

    What's Cookin:

    • Yesterday I made a batch of whole-milk yogurt, I added organic heavy cream and some whole milk powder to try to attain a very thick yogurt, will check on it in less than a few hours. I used 24-ounce glass jars sitting in water in my Instant Pot, never attempted this method before-UPDATE-turned out terrific! Nice and thick.

    • Burgers for dinner; half grass-fed bison and grass-fed beef, seasoned simply with salt and pepper and a touch of Worcestershire cooked over oak charcoal on my Bigg Green Egg

    • Today I will be making tomato pie-heirloom tomatoes, bacon or pancetta, basil, and high-quality blue cheese baked in a pata brisee that I make with duck fat or lard.

    FOOD INDUSTRY AND HARVEST NEWS:
    • Novamex's Mineraqua touts tap water as a meaningful differentiator as it does not "waste" natural spring water but is this good? Tap water? Hmmm

    TODAY'S MAIN TOPIC:

    I hear a lot of blather from politicians, media liars and un-elected globalists about the "climate emergency" and how we need to act NOW to save our burning planet but I rarely if ever hear them talk about eating local food and how purchasing fruit from South America and protein that was raised here, shipped to our enemies, packaged and shipped back for us to buy is terribly wasteful. Learning how to cook seasonal recipes all year long is a delightful journey that unlocks the wholesome flavors of nature's bounty. The first step is sourcing local foods, which involves developing an understanding and appreciation for the cycles of nature in your region. By connecting with local farmers and farm markets, farm-to-table initiatives, and community-supported agriculture programs, you can access a diverse array of fresh produce, herbs, and grains throughout the year. Next, it's essential to expand one's recipe repertoire for each type of food. Experimenting with various cooking techniques, flavors, and cuisines ensures a diverse and exciting culinary experience. To create a well-rounded diet, integrating local protein, such as grass-fed meats, pastured chicken, heritage pigs raised in forests, plus local and regional dairy products, and freshly harvested fruits. This adds both nutritional balance and deliciousness to every meal. Embracing this approach to cooking not only nourishes our bodies, but also supports local farmers, and spending locally reduces our carbon footprint, and deepens our connection to the seasons and what each has to offer.

    WHAT's Cookin?:

    -Made pizza yesterday, Chicago-style thin crust with various toppings such as house-made Italian fennel sausage, (used up the last bit of ground pork I had), sauerkraut, aged and fresh mozzarella, banana peppers, parm cheese, and olive oil. Tasted great…the dough is quite unique as it's very low hydration and super thin and left uncovered so it because almost leather-like and dry, and cooks up crisp.

    FOOD INDUSTRY AND HARVEST NEWS:

    Raw milk is legalized in more states, add North Dakota and Iowa to the list. It is an exciting development to see an increasing number of dairies legally selling raw milk. Raw milk, which is milk that is not pasteurized or homogenized, has gained popularity in recent years due to its numerous health benefits. Supporters argue that raw milk retains its natural enzymes, vitamins, and beneficial bacteria, making it easier to digest and boosting the immune system. Additionally, raw milk is believed to contain higher levels of nutrients, such as Vitamin C, D, and B6, as well as minerals like calcium, magnesium, and iron. Many consumers also appreciate the rich and creamy taste of raw milk, as well as its potential to reduce allergies and intolerances. However, it is important to note that there are still concerns regarding the safety of raw milk, as it may harbor harmful bacteria, such as E. coli or Salmonella. Thus, those interested in consuming raw milk should ensure that it comes from reputable dairies with strict quality control measures in place.

    TODAY'S MAIN TOPIC:

    Cold Food For Dinner

    Since we're in the middle of the hot summer I suggest having a larger meal during the day and lighter foods at dinner time. When I was a kid, summertime dinner often was antipasto platter and included such things as sliced deli meats and cheeses, tomatoes, pickles, potato or macaroni salad, and fruit salad. The idea was not to heat up the house and to have cooling foods. Recently we had fruit and yogurt for dinner; a large bowl of homemade yogurt with sweeteners such as honey or maple syrup and a selection of fruits to add to the yogurt.

    Similarly, foods like quiche and salad, or soup and a sandwich can be tasty for dinner on hots nights. Here are a few more ideas to kick around:

    • Orzo salad with rotisserie chicken

    • Panzanella salad; bread cubes, salted tomatoes, herbage, simple vinaigrette, pecorino cheese or some really great ricotta salata

    • Tuna or chicken salad stuffed avocado

    • Tuna salad with cucumber, tomatoes, chip peas, onions, and marinated artichokes

    • Nicoise salad; tuna, cold green beans, avocado, potato salad, hard-cooked eggs

    • tomatoes, w mozzarella, olives, cucumbers, and simple olive oil vinaigrette, feta cheese

    PRODUCT RECOMMENDATION:

    Pro One Water Filter

    We decided to get another water filter after we scraped the Berkey and then spent 5 mos with a pile of shit from Acqusana. We always wondered why some much scale came through our Berkey, calcium deposits, etc., and the fact that they had no real water quality testing and we also had the plastic version started bothering me as I learned that plastic does indeed leach. I then ordered a model from a company called Acquasana, they make under-counter and whole house systems with lab test results which I liked, I bought the countertop model with half gallon capacity, HUGE mistake, we were filling that damn thing 3-4 times per day.

    Since our switch in late July we have been very happy with the Pro One system, the packaging, system itself, water quality, looks, and performance is spot on.

    • Heinz Moving To 100% Post-Consumer Recycled Packaging-what about glass?

    • Fake Meat's Troubles Continue

    Today's Main Topic:

    At Harvest Eating, our mission is to embrace a sustainable and ethical approach to food production. One important goal we strive for is to eliminate commercial proteins sourced from factory farms. These industrialized operations are not only detrimental to animal welfare but also have severe environmental consequences. Additionally, factory-farm meat does not have a great nutritional profile as it's high in Omega 6 fats from grain and usually contained pesticides and also antibiotics. By actively promoting alternatives such as locally sourced, pasture-raised meats, we aim to support farmers and suppliers who prioritize regenerative farming practices. Our vision is to create a future where every meal is a conscious choice that nourishes our bodies, respects animals, and preserves our planet for generations to come. I have been aiming to eliminate all CAFO proteins such as beef, pork, chicken, and even some dairy from our household and replace them with local grass-fed and finished beef, lamb, heritage pork, and chicken raised without GMO grain and raw dairy such as cheese, yogurt, milk, cream. The mission is gaining steam….I hope this inspired you too.

    FOOD INDUSTRY & HARVEST NEWS

    India's rice export ban, which was implemented on August 1, 2022, has had significant implications for both domestic and international markets. As the world's second-largest producer and exporter of rice, this decision has caused ripples in the global trade landscape. Aimed at addressing rising food inflation and ensuring food security for its own population, the ban restricted the export of non-basmati rice varieties. While the government's intention to prioritize domestic consumption is understandable, this move has sparked concerns among import-dependent countries that heavily rely on Indian rice for their staple food supply. The ban has led to a surge in global rice prices and created noticeable disruptions in the international rice market. It remains to be seen how long this export ban will remain in place and how it will impact global food security in the long run.

    Main Topic-Fermentation:

    Fermentation is a time-honored culinary process that not only enhances the flavor and complexity of food but also offers a wide array of health benefits. By allowing beneficial bacteria and yeasts to naturally break down sugars and transform them into acids and gases, fermentation not only extends the shelf life of certain foods but also adds depth, tanginess, and a unique richness to the final product. Some common examples of fermented food items include tangy sauerkraut, zesty kimchi, creamy yogurt, and fizzy kombucha. These fermented delicacies not only tantalize our taste buds but also promote digestive health, aid in nutrient absorption, and boost our immune systems by introducing beneficial probiotics into our gut. Incorporating these fermented foods into our diets is a nutritional win, offering both a flavorful experience and a boost to our well-being.

    TODAY'S PRODUCT RECOMMENDATION?

    The Peppermate Pepper Grinder is an essential tool in every kitchen for the discerning cook and spice enthusiast. With its sleek design and durable construction, this pepper grinder is built to last. The adjustable grind settings allow for precise control over the coarseness of your freshly ground pepper, ensuring that it perfectly enhances the flavors of your dishes.

Whether you're adding a sprinkle of pepper to your favorite pasta dish or seasoning a juicy steak, the Peppermate Pepper Grinder will be your go-to accessory for perfectly ground pepper every time.

    Give fermentation a try, I think you'll find the foods you produce not only tasty but nutritious and fun to make.

    502-Eating Clean Food Equals Freedom Jun 12, 2023
    Show notes

    Let me make the following bold statement; every person (or animal) has one thing in common-​eating food is the most important aspect of life, period. With that said I offer the following:

    Eating clean food is a revolutionary act that in many ways flies in the face of what "they" want you to do.

    Everywhere you look companies and governments are trying harder and harder to dictate what you eat. Their advice is printed in magazines, in doctor's offices, on billboards, radio ads, tv ads, pre-roll videos, etc.

    The drumbeat of advice that's bordering on being pushy is nauseating especially when this advice has words like "FDA approved" "CDC recommended" or "health experts say…"

    I operate from the approach that whatever "they" say or recommend if I do the opposite.

    They want me to eat plant-based foods so I eat more meat. They want me to drink "safe & effective" USDA grade A skim milk so I drink full-fat raw milk purchased directly from family farms. They want me to use "heart-healthy" polyunsaturated seed oil so I use lard, butter, coconut, and olive oil.

    In order to avoid grocery store CAFO meats I buy direct from farms or grass-fed/finished aggregators.

    Not food related but when they try to force me to take their serums in my arm I tell them to piss off.

    Let's be clear, IMO if you take "their" advice your lifespan is in serious jeopardy, this is a documented fact.

    Why does the food taste like nothing?

    Even the fruit these days is being bathed in questionable substances like waxes and other more evil and non-washable, non-natural encasements funded by wealthy tech billionaires. Plus I find most store-bought fruit to be tasteless and expensive. It seems most of the food supply has lost its flavor, its taste and is not healthful. The middle of the store is filled with items I no longer recognize, sure the name and brands are the same, but the ingredient lists are long, hard to pronounce, and downright comical.

    Food additives are "generally considered as safe" really? who says that? Ahhhh..the FDA…same group that approves drugs to later pull them when people die….sorry I don't trust them.

    think we are all safer when we just eliminate all the packaged foods like chips, crackers, and most packaged condiments, the CAFO meats, the cheap sugar-filled dairy items, the processed meats, seed-oil fried fast foods items (ya even Chik fil A), and focus on real foods, that we grow or raise ourselves or buy from ethical growers. We cannot as a society keep listening to these "experts" by following the food pyramid and hoping for the best.

    We need to take matters into our own hands and realize that food choices are critical to long-term health or lack thereof. Please start reading labels closely, if it has a label you probably want to scrutinize it or just forget it. I challenge anyone to find me a healthy person, who is able-bodied that eats from the center of the store or regularly eats seed oil fried foods and junk foods……I'm waiting….!

    I know, some of you think this sounds high and mighty and possibly negative, but I'm just sharing what I think. We have cleaned up our diets and stopped buying chips and crackers with limited exceptions. I was pissed the other day at my father-in-law who does not care about what he eats bought all sorts of garbage for our kids while we were away; Doritos, potato chips, and candy all the while good raw milk was going bad in the fridge along with other healthy foods. Even my kids who grew up eating well will choose the garbage snack foods because they are so addicting once you try them. Eat only 1 Dorito, I dare you, it's almost impossible.


    My Love /Hate Relationship W Cast Iron & Carbon Steel Cookware May 20, 2023
    Show notes

    I've cooked with just about every pan brand and type there is over the last 3.5 decades I have been cooking seriously, I love some and hate others and today I want to discuss this more in-depth.

    I own many cast iron pans and pots and also 2 carbon steel pans and one new carbon steel wok. They perform well at times, but need to be cared for in specific ways, and when those care methods are not followed the pans lose their seasoning and are then just heavy paperweights.

    My French copper is amazing and cooks well no matter what, but for sticky stuff….bacon, eggs, etc they are not the best either and they cost. a small fortune.

    In my experience cooking eggs (which I do daily) requires a well-seasoned cast iron, carbon steel, or non-stick pan. But as mentioned above, the first two options can go from beautiful to ugly duckling fast, so I am working more with a high-quality non-stick at the moment.

    I don't love non-stick aluminum pans, they are too light, and even if the food does not stick, the cooking performance is just not there, Ford pinto V.S. Porsche 911.

    So the best cookware for this is high-quality stainless lined with PFOE-free non-stick, and it must not come from China. I use USA-crafted Made In pans and really do love them. Cheap they are not, as Yoda might say. But worth it they are, no affiliation by the way, I paid full price for both of mine.

    So I suggest you find a stainless pan that is lined with a trustworthy coating, NEVER heat it more than 450 and never wash it in a dishwasher or when hot, allow it to cool. When cooking use silicone or wood, no metal!

    I'm out!

    Episode 500-WOW, Finally Made 500 Episodes....! Today I will discuss Planning A Dinner Party May 12, 2023
    Show notes

    Just a quick thanks to all of you who have stuck around for 500 episodes….hard to believe I have made it this long. Truth is I quit several times along the way but emails from fans asking for more shows kept me going. So here we are at 500 and I am humbled by your support through the years.

    Today I will be talking you through my planning and thoughts on a dinner party that is coming up this Friday, today is Tuesday as I write this. Planning a party for me requires thinking through many things to get the meal correct. Here are some in no particular order.

    • Who's coming- know your guests, allergies? Types of food they like? How sophisticated is their pallet?

    • Seasonality-what season is it, and what might be appropriate?

    • Weather..is it hot? maybe a thick soup is not a great idea, conversely, a cold rainy day might welcome a stew instead of a salad

    • Holidays? Special events?

    • Ingredient focused? seafood? vegetarian? grass-fed?

    • Practicality and efficiency…how hard will this menu be to execute or Pick up as we say in the industry.

    I'll discuss these points and more about the foods I plan and will hopefully post my menu here too.

    499-Perennial Plants, Shrubs and Permaculture-What I wish I knew Earlier May 02, 2023
    Show notes

    Today is a Friday off-the-cuff show and I wanted to chat about perennials and permaculture.

    Now, right up front, I don't know much about permaculture, so I am learning as much as possible. I have studied and continue studying soil science and regenerative agriculture, some of which apply here. I am also really excited about perennials and wish I embraced them earlier.

    Also this year I have started using companion plants to help others nad diversity in general, all good things I belive!

    Annual gardening is undoubtedly a love of mine, but I am more focused on perennial plants than planting new ones, at least as much as possible within the constraints of an HOA as I currently live in one.
