Listeria


On the bacterium that causes much concern these days running, here's some important information to consider and which we do not talk enough in the media:

First, that include Listeria monocytogenes (known as Listeria) is a bacterium widespread in the environment. It is found in soil, vegetation, water, sewage and feces of animals and humans.

Listeriosis is caused by consumption of food contaminated with the bacteria Listeria. This is reflected in the non-pasteurized dairy products (raw), raw vegetables and meat not cooked. Food may also be contaminated after processing, such as hot dogs, cold meat or meat sausages. Unlike most harmful bacteria, Listeria can grow on foods stored in the refrigerator. Food contaminated with Listeria have a look, smell and taste normal. However, proper cooking methods can kill the bacteria. Generally, Listeria is not transmitted from person to person.

Needless to mention that it is important to wash hands before handling food and indeed one can ask if anyone working in restaurants or food complies strictly these instructions without exception. Unfortunately, one need only attend public toilets to realize that a majority of people leave these places without going through the sink and it is worrying if it is assumed that some of them you will serve your salad for dinner. As can be seen in some fast food chains (fast food) where employees do not even have gloves when preparing food. Fortunately, some as Subway have taken this initiative and can be commended.

To reduce the risk of the bacteria Listeria there are some precautions

Did you know that Listeria can be present in greater quantity in the liquid contents of the packages of hot-dog in the sausage themselves? So it is important to move the sausage under water before the heat, while avoiding spilling the liquid onto other foods, cutting boards, utensils, dishes and surfaces used to prepare food. Wash hands after handling the hot-dog.

Reheat meat sausages until very hot.

Avoid soft cheeses and semi-soft, as feta, brie, camembert and blue cheese, if they are made from unpasteurized milk. Consuming milk and pasteurized milk products, including cheeses made from pasteurized milk.

Choose pâtés and meat spreads canned or long conservation.

Cook fish and seafood consumption or refrigerated smoked fish and seafood, canned or smoked long conservation.

The wonders of the Crockpot

What a crock pot?

A removable stoneware casserole enamel, which can serve as a serving dish, a metal box and a tempered glass lid. The pot is exposed to an indirect heat that comes from heating elements placed around the box. The food will not stick to the casserole.

The crock pot! Some of us have forgotten its existence, and yet it seems to me that it has rocked our childhood. Remember the good boiled beef with vegetables, the result of several hours of cooking over a fire. With the good dishes she prepares us, crock pot deserves its place in the kitchen. Good news, it seems that it is back in force ... and so much the better. My grandmother told me yet, "Plus it cooked for a long time, it is better!"

Advantageous, crock pot! Why use the slow cooker? Because it's great practice. Basically, you do not care about anything, it cooked alone! After preparing the ingredients and putting it into the casserole, there is more than simmer! With this form of cooking very slowly, covered, you're sure to get meat very tender and tasty. You can also obtain surprising results with cuts that are normally stronger or more tough. But it's not just beef, veal, pork, lamb, poultry, seafood and fish that can cook so you can prepare appetizer, soups, chilis , Pasta, vegetables, desserts, breads, cereals ... In short, is no lack of ideas. You go to the cottage this weekend or you need to bring a dish to your guests? The slow cooker is transported very easily, empty or full.

Tips for cooking. Use the slow cooker requires some adjustments compared to how you cook ships.

-- Reduce the amount of herbs and spices.

-- Reduce the amount of liquid by half.

-- Make brown your meat before the drop in the crock pot, it will be even more tender.

-- Make soften some of your vegetables, like carrots and onions before putting it in your slow cooker. You'll see more easily the caramelization of the natural sugars.

-- If you cook fish or seafood, snow peas, courgettes, peppers, milk or cream, add them only 30 minutes before the end of cooking.

-- Choose long-grain rice and use the same amount of rice as liquid.

-- Cook pasta from (al dente) and add them to the slow cooker 30 minutes before cooking.

-- Use chicken broth, beef or vegetables instead of water for the majority of your dishes. It enhances the taste.

The Apple

Do you know that expression, An apple a day keeps the doctor away?

The old adage could not be better to say. Apples are good for us! A medium-sized apple contains only about 80 calories and is a source of vitamin C. Without fat and sodium-free, apples also contribute to healthy teeth through their very firm texture. They are also a source of pectin, a soluble fiber that helps lower cholesterol and blood sugar in the blood, especially if you eat the skin.

The time apples will be back soon. Here is some advice for conservation.

1 - Keep apples cool in the refregirator. The apples ripen ten times faster in the air. The best place is the vegetable tray, or températeur is generally four degrees celcius.

2 - They breathe. Keep your apples in a perforated bag which allows air circulation.

3 - Beware of absorption of smell. The apples absorb odors easily, so keep them away from foods such as onions.

4 - Separate apples of other fruits and vegetables. They emit ethylene, a gas which accelerate ripening and can affect some delicate vegetables.
