Extractions: Korea is a country of extraordinary contrast and diversity. The peninsula is bordered on the west, east, and south by water while rugged mountains inland give way to rolling hills, plains, and estuaries on the coasts. For 200 years, it was known as the Hermit Kingdom, but in September 1988 South Korea hosted the Olympic Games in Seoul to a record 161 countries, 13,600 competitors, 250,000 tourists, 15,000 journalists, and some 3 billion television viewers. If you find yourself in Seoul, you might question the appellation "The Land of the Morning Calm," in this the fifth largest metropolis in the world. Yet look closely in the shade of the modern high-rises and you will see palaces, shrines, and city gates which are over half a millennium old. Take a step back and you will see that four mountains in four directions further dwarf the skyscrapers. Not surprisingly, Korean cuisine reflects the colorful variety of its land and the passionate temperament of its people. Korean meals are served buffet-style with meat, poultry, and fish dishes served concurrently with an impressive assortment of vegetables for sampling, rather than for individual portions. Historically two distinct types of Korean cooking can be noted: the cuisine of the royal court and the home cooking of the common people. While court cuisine is characterized by highly refined seasonings and elaborates cooking procedures, homestyle cooking is less complex and elegant. In general, Korean food is heavily seasoned, typically with some combination of garlic, red and black pepper, ginger, scallions, soy sauce, and sesame.
Extractions: by Ronda L. Carnicelli The New Year brings with it countless resolutions that are often set aside as quickly as the Christmas tree. But, New Year's resolutions don't have to be a lesson in futility. It's as simple as making choices that fit within your lifestyle. If you've been eating a super-sized fast food lunch for the last five years, resolving to have celery and water this year is setting yourself up for failure. Why not opt instead to cut those trips to the fast food joint down to once or twice a week and decide to walk there instead of drive? You're so much more likely to succeed with goals like that. Since so many New Year's resolutions involve health issues, it's important to note that it's not necessary to give up your favorite foods. However, think about how you can update them to include healthier ingredients or, if that's just not possible, reduce the amount of them that show up in your normal menu. If you love french fries, why not experiment with some of the great oven-baked recipes out there? Or, if you're really partial to the real thing, try to limit your consumption of them. Telling yourself that you will never eat another fry is not very realistic especially if they are on your list of favorite foods. Try to find ways to improve your lifestyle that won't cramp it or better yet will be fun for you to do. Going for walking break instead of a coffee break with your best friend and talking about life is so fun that it hardly even feels like something that's good for your body! Making food that's healthy for you doesn't have to be boring either. Enjoying a meal of grilled salmon tacos with fresh salsa is so tasty that you'll have to remind yourself that your meal is also healthy fuel for you.

Find your local branch Search this site Home Waitrose Food Illustrated Cooking Festivals and Celebration Harriet Docker ushers in the Chinese year of the golden dragon with a traditional feast prepared by a Malaysian ex-pat in suburban south London. Photographs by Arthur Meehan. This year, the Chinese celebrate the year of the golden dragon, a symbol of strength and - appropriately at the dawn of the new millennium - progress. Although New Year's Day falls on 5 February, the festivities officially last for 15 days. It is a time for family get-togethers, burying the past and looking to the future. Food is central to the celebrations, and vast banquets for family and friends are common. Such a feast is being prepared by Michelle Lee, who grew up in Malaysia's Chinese community before moving to this country 17 years ago to train as a ballerina. Although she stayed on in the uk - her subsequent career has included a three-year stint as bikini girl Mimi in the West End musical Miss Saigon - she still eagerly celebrates Chinese New Year, entertaining her friends at her home in Dulwich, south London. "The one thing I've really missed since I've been living here is the food," she says. "Where I come from, eating with one's family is a central part of life." Children in China and Malaysia are taught from an early age the importance of cooking and eating, and how different foods affect the body. Too many chillies, for example, are said to cause mouth ulcers; fried foods make the body unhealthily hot; while lychees have a cooling effect. This comes from the ancient concept of yin-yang: foods have yin (cooling) or yang (heating) properties and must be kept in equilibrium in the body. Accordingly, an excess of any one food can upset the balance and cause disease.

Extractions: Lawrence, Kansas Home The Living Sections story By Susan Krumm Wednesday, January 16, 2002 I'm trying to kick the new year off by improving my health habits. Do you have any ideas that might help me? We just received some information from Barbara Lohse Knous, K-State Extension nutrition specialist, about New Year's resolutions from the American Council on Science and Health. The council offers these 12 resolutions to help increase your chances of having a healthy and happy 2002. See if any of them work into your individual goals. 1. Focus your efforts on things that matter. In the aftermath of Sept. 11, Americans are concerned about new, real threats to their health and safety. Now, more than ever, it is important that we distinguish between risks that are real and can be reduced by our actions, and those that are theoretical, minimal or beyond our control. While the risk of receiving an anthrax-laden letter is real, it is very small for the majority of people. It can be helpful to maintain a heightened alertness to strangely addressed mail, for example, but a panicked hoarding of anti-anthrax antibiotics will not be. To make the best health choices, resolve to sift carefully through health advice and focus on the things that really matter.

Apples And A Sweet New Year As I sat this week thinking about Rosh Hashanah and the recipes for a cooking classI apple cups, each holding a sip of melted brown sugar for a sweet new Year. http://www.aish.com/family/cooking/Apples_and_a_Sweet_New_Year.asp
Extractions: This summer, I was at my friend Betsy's house. I admired an apple tree in her yard, loaded with small, round apples. "My grandma planted this tree with me on Tu B'Shevat years ago," she said, "so I can't let these apples go to waste." She invited me to bring my children and together we picked apples. For weeks we peeled apples, ate apples, displayed apples. My boys even sold those apples door to door, setting aside 10% of the sales proceeds for Tzedakah, as per Betsy. As I sat this week thinking about Rosh Hashanah and the recipes for a cooking class I'd be giving, I thought of those lovely, tart apples. In my mind, I scrubbed them, cored them and placed them close together in a shallow casserole. Into each hollow, I placed a brown sugar cube. In the Greek Sephardic tradition, we don't dip the apple in the honey, we cook it with sugar. I baked them golden brown and brought them to the table on a lacy silver cake stand, little baked apple cups, each holding a sip of melted brown sugar for a sweet New Year. The Talmud says, "I did not find the world desolate when I entered it and, as my parents planted for me, so do I plant for my children." (Talmud Ta'anit 23a) All of us are busy, all the kids are over-scheduled. No one has room in their yard and there's never parking at the nursery. But somehow, Betsy's grandma went out into the yard with Betsy and her two little girls one spring morning, some twenty years ago, and planted a blessing.

Extractions: Cooking on Venus Welcome to my recipes pages. This isn't a big collection of recipes, just a few of my favourite variations on common recipes, and a few uncommon ones that I've particularly enjoyed. If you're looking for other, perhaps larger collections of recipes, I highly recommend the Yahoo Index as a place to start searching. Good news for those of you who have asked me where to find more about James Barber online. He's got a website now at www.james-barber.com . While I would have leaned towards www.urban-peasant.ca for the name, the site looks very nice so far, and there looks to be many good things coming on it. If you're looking for a particular recipe, I've found the Lycos Search Engine to be one of the best searching resources out there. If you can't find it on Yahoo or Lycos, please don't ask me for it, as it's highly unlikely I've got anything that can't be found through that route. If you exhaust both these resources without finding what you're looking for, you can try submitting a request to the Usenet group rec.food.recipes

Extractions: Cake Finder ... Solutions A to Z Teaching Tradition at Holiday Time It's very important to me to give my children a sense of cultural heritage and have them understand where they come from. I am very proud of my history, and I want them to be, too! Do you have any suggestions? Holiday meals are a wonderful way to introduce your children to your family's roots. Every culture has symbolic or traditional foods that are integral to their most important celebrations. The children might not yet understand prayers, or songs in foreign languages, but they know what tastes good, and they remember these special foods from year to year, whether it's matzoh ball soup, Christmas ham, or Aunt Jean's special New Year's hoppin' John. When you serve traditional foods, explain to your children what they are. Try to involve your children in the preparation, so they'll understand what kinds of ingredients go into the meal, and why. For example, a traditional borscht may help your children understand what kinds of vegetables grow in Eastern Europe, and what the climate is like. Make a conscious effort to serve traditional foods at holiday time. You may want to innovate with a few dishes, but in general, children in particular love the holidays because they find the same foods year after year, and that helps them understand tradition and continuity.
