TT: Food Research: 13 grains

Apr 16, 2009 14:20

I know I’ve been quiet in the TT for a bit, just can’t seem to get a decent TT post going mid-week lately, things are too crazy. Well today, I’m gonna give it a go anyways. I have a big one this week to make up for my absence a bit.

I was to start out with a big thank you to Isabella who walked me through the bulk food and the deli areas at Outpost ( Read more... )

health, vegan, ancestral magic, cooking

Couscous isn't a grain; it's a pasta made from wheat flour. (It's like calling orzo a grain b/c of its shape.)

Yeah, you're right, they call it Moroccan pasta, the ground endosperm of duram wheat. It was listed on the Outpost Coop grain thing as I likely got cunfused then. Thanks for the info!

I've been hoping to introduce one new thing every other shopping trip. Thanks for putting this up. Now I have another reference guide when I hit the grocery story next weekend.

Hugs,

I went back and got some stuff on beans and rice too, so more next week. :)

post the vegan stuff here, especially if it involves recipes. Of course I'm a meat eater, but I love reading about food stuff.

couscous is very good and once the water is boiled it cooks in 2-3 minutes.
i just made vegan brownies the two days ago and they were very tasty. the recipe uses spelt flour and silken tofu.

my friend faith is also going vegan and has been writing about it a lot if you want to check her out. www.chauceriangirl.wordpress.com

thanks for the list. i love being reminded of all the different grains out there.

happy tt! :)
