Hot Pepper Sauce Festival

Sunday, February 25th, 2007

Hot pepper sauce is not for everyone. But if you into this fascinating style of cooking, you can discover hundreds of different tastes and styles with hot pepper sauces… Spicy food is something you either love or hate.

If you’ve grown up with boring bland cooking, you probably still like boring bland cooking. But if you are like me, you know that a little bit of a kick makes the meal. That is why it is so important to select the right hot pepper sauce.

If you’re not familiar with Cajun cooking, Indian cuisine, or any of the other styles of food that rely heavily on hot pepper sauce, you’d be surprised by how much effort people put into getting just the right flavor with just the right kick. From Tabasco pepper sauce through powdered cayenne pepper and beyond, there are hundreds of thousands of flavors available. There are even whole brands that make nothing but hot pepper sauce. But my favorite thing of all is the hot pepper sauce Festival.

Monday, November 6th, 2006

Who doesn’t want to grab the ultimate barbecue sauce recipe? If you want to be the success of the neighborhood, than the best you can do is produce an excellent barbecue sauce… A favorite type of food that almost everyone craves during the summer is barbecue. Biting into a richly flavored rack of ribs or chewing on a chicken leg that’s smothered in barbecue sauce is just plain delicious.

It seems like everyone and their Grandmother has a recipe for their favorite sauce to use on the barbecue. For some it’s a bottled sauce that they swear is the best they’ve ever had, while for others the barbecue sauce recipe they use has been passed on from generation to generation and is as closely guarded a secret as you’ll ever find.

If you’re not fortunate enough to have an ancestor with a love of all things grilled, you’re probably going to spend a good deal of time trying to find the perfect barbecue sauce recipe. Unless you are willing to settle for the bottled variety, it’s a trek that is filled with tasty treats.

Low Fat Cooking In A Balanced Diet

Sunday, October 8th, 2006

If you read my previous posts, you’ve noticed that I am digging in the dieting fashions! Low carb recipes, low fat cooking and other forms of diets… we all know that our life style is not exactly very healthy. Like everybody I love cookies but I also love good fresh food every day and I try to cook a fresh meal every evening for my kids…

Though fat is a part of our daily nutrition intake, most people are prone to eat an excess amount of fat in their diets. Switching over to low fat cooking can help people reduce the amount of fat they eat, can help maintain a healthy body weight, can help prevent disease and may potentially increase one’s life span.

There are four simple ways that a person can immediately introduce low fat cooking in their diet. These are trimming the fat off meat, switching to low-fat dairy products, using butter or margarine sparingly and changing cooking methods from roasting or frying to steaming or stir-frying. A person should attempt to eat fewer eggs, cheese and other dairy products, and cut down on red meat and chicken. These foods are high in saturated fats and contribute to heart disease.
