Create Your Own Food Culture




One of the major problems with any diet overhaul is a psychological addiction that people have their own 'comfort food. "Everyone is part of culture, a part of that culture includes foods that are traditionally given in certain circumstances, such as chicken soup with noodles when sick or ice cream when depressed. Beginning this past seemingly-innate tendency is a major part of the diet challenge.


My take is to start your own food culture. Trying to do things like wheat from non-wheat is possible, but to date most of the other made ​​with starch flour plus xanthan gum, or eggs. This is the heritage of American food: Wheat flour, white sugar and chemical additives

.

Here's good news: there are lots of other food heritage, which had never heard of such ingredients. It's actually easier to adopt just one of those. Go 'Paleo'. Go Asia. Go African. Go Indonesian or Vietnamese or Japanese. Pretend you're a refugee, and all you have to cook the chicken and some sweet potatoes. Or do you cook the BBQ every day, because your oven broke.


In any case, this is what my wife and I have done in our early days as a low-carb diet, and it actually turned out to be kinda fun. Eating nothing but meat and whole fruits or vegetables (in any combination we could make them ).


We do not make more "fun" things these days, but that is still my base: pretend I actually hunted or gathered ingredients. Food is cheaper and tastier that way, and it takes your mind off the "oh wow, there is a or I can eat. " And seriously, if you have a rack of ribs smoked nice, what else does a person need?

What's the best way to carve a chicken?

Some of your recipes call for roasters. I don't live in an area where Perdue chicken is sold, and I haven't been able to find roasters in the stores. What exactly is a roaster, and can I substitute a broiler? A Perdue Oven Stuffer Roaster is a 12 week old bird especially developed for a broad breast. Roasters are bigger than broilers, and have a more favorable meat to bone ratio than broilers. Because they are older birds, they also have a much deeper, richer flavor. You can use broilers in roaster recipes, but plan on the chicken's being done sooner and having a noticeably milder flavor. Frank, by the way, is the man responsible for creating the roaster market. Back in the early 1970s, when few people had ever heard of a roaster, he was the one who worked to breed these broad-breasted birds, and who put the effort into advertising so people would learn about the new product. He surprised his colleagues by how determined he was in his developing and marketing efforts. One o

Why are some chickens yellow skinned and some white?

A chicken's skin color comes from the diet it was fed and the same bird could have a white skin or a yellow skin, depending on what it ate. The diet that produces a yellow skin is more expensive than the usual diet, but the people at Perdue Farms feel it's worth it because a yellow skin color is one of the fastest ways Frank's inspectors have of finding and disqualifying an inferior bird. If a bird is sick or off its feed, it doesn't absorb nutrients well and won't develop the rich golden color that is characteristic of Perdue birds. Also, if part of a bird's outer skin is "barked", that is, rubbed off due to rough handling during processing, the Perdue inspectors can detect it more easily than with a white-skinned bird. Detecting and removing and chicken with a barked skin is important because damaged skin shortens the shelf life and dries out and toughens the meat. No white colored chickens get by the inspectors. Sometimes when I open a package of ch
