VEGETARIAN

                                                                                                                                     - jg                                                                  

VEGETARIAN

If you look at the world map of the percentage of vegetarians in the population of a country, it shows that the percentage varies from 0.3 to 40 per cent. (from vegetarians by country – Google).

Those “who are inclined towards such a diet” form a much higher portion of the population.
There is plenty of information about how to be a vegetarian.
Note that “vegans” comprise a fair percentage of these people.

This page is simply a short reference for some of the sources of information about the topic………..

“Raw for Thirty” would have to be one of the best sources – find it here:
http://www.rawfor30days.com/cmd.php?af=1495222   (If you want to see a photo of a feast table spread with vegetarian goodies, & food – check out their ‘boot camp’ video……….) You would have to go a long way to see a better feast……

The question of Vitamin B12 for Vegetarians is a good question -
These comments by  Robert J. Rowen, MD   are vital:   
" As you may know, I'm a big advocate of the Living Foods Diet. But I'll admit that this diet has one major problem. In fact, it's a big problem for any largely vegetarian diet. That problem is the availability of vitamin B12.

You see, plants have a molecule that looks like vitamin B12, but it's actually an "analogue." That means it's not truly identical to active vitamin B12. So for vegetarians, you must have a good source of true B12.

A recent report found that the Korean seaweed purple laver contains substantial active vitamin B12.
 
A second study found that there is active vitamin B12 in white button mushrooms, presumably from bacteria in the soils in which they grow.

Vitamin B12 is so important that if I even think it's deficient in any patient, I usually give an injection. That includes meat eaters. Why? Because B12 is hard to absorb, especially as we age and produce less acid in our stomachs. Here are two plant products that may offer high absorption at a pH of 2.0, which is easy for you to achieve.
 
I do get my vitamin B12 tested periodically. I am well within the reference range, but admittedly on the lower side. While I eat seaweed, I'm now eating more of the purple laver, as its molecules are true vitamin B12 and not inactive "analogues." If you eat the Living Foods Diet or a largely vegetarian diet, you can find purple laver in many Asian markets."


Books on the subject include:


Even a search about a culture that promotes vegetarianism can be informative…….
(And, as I inferred before – search for  “vegan”  ideas….)
Being a vegetarian has many incredible benefits……..all the best with your search……..

One area for research concerns prions. (Those who really understand what they are, and where they come from, usually end up becoming vegans!!!). A definition: ..." Prions are unprecedented infectious pathogens that cause a group of invariably fatal neurodegenerative diseases". (from prions - Google)  Discovered after searching why cannibals died. Look it up on the net...... (a link is above)

A really good reason to be a vegetarian!!!

And if not a total vegan - to restrict meat to the old classic of "clean meat".

A very interesting area for research. So much to learn... The ability to make choices....wonderful!!

SPICY HONEY BISCUITS

                                                                                                                        - jg from dk - memory of jo



HONEY BISCUITS
PLAIN,    or   SPICED   or   VERY Strongly  SPICED!

Ingredients

•  2 cups self-raising flour    -     or, flour plus baking powder
•  1/2 cup caster sugar, or brown sugar, if you like that taste.
   125g butter, chilled, and cubed
•  1/2 cup honey, with a strong flavor – preferably
•  Up to1 cup demerara sugar
•  Spices:     your choice…….  the power of being able to choose……
•  If you want spiced biscuits; select the spices you are comfortable      with, from: mixed spice, cinnamon, star anise, nutmeg, cloves,      cumin, allspice, fennel, dill, ginger,   etc.
•  (my mother sometimes uses only 3 teaspoons of ginger). I use that     plus a selection   from ½ to ¼ of a teaspoon from  some of the     above.)
 NOTE: If you use a lot of spices – please read the caution below!!

Method         (other methods are noted below….)

Step 1
Preheat oven to 200°C. Line 3 baking trays with baking paper.
Step 2
Sift flour, bicarbonate of soda (if used), mixed spice and ginger into a food processor. Process for 30 seconds or until well combined. Add
caster sugar. Pulse for 20 seconds.  Add butter. Process until mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs.
Step 3
Heat honey in a small saucepan over medium heat until warm and runny. With food processor running, pour warm honey down feed tube and process until a soft dough forms. Transfer to a bowl.
Step 4
Place demerara sugar into another bowl. Roll dough into walnut-sized balls. Roll balls in sugar to coat. Place onto the baking paper on the prepared trays, allowing room for spreading.
Step5
Bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until biscuits are golden and tops are cracked. Stand on trays for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool. Store in an airtight container.


Another   METHOD:

(In ”the öld days”, of course, the mixing was done by hand):

Warm the butter, honey and sugar together. Cool.
 Add the spices. Sometimes, the spices were warmed with the honey/sugar – be careful not to overheat – may drive off some of the flavor and/or aromatic oils!
Add to the flour.  (Some recipes add an egg – your choice).  Mix well.
Two, (2), approaches – 1. Add balls to the above sugar, coat well, and use as above.
                                      2. Add more flour, to make a good stiff pastry – roll out , and                                                  shape into, and cut out, the biscuit shapes you want.
A half of an almond, pressed into the top of the biscuit, is a nice touch.  (Or a half of a peanut….).  Etc……
The special sugar can still be pressed onto the surface for method 2 …..
I bake at about 170 degrees C, for longer – till just right. (They burn sooo.. easily!!)
When cool, the top of the biscuits can be glazed: (mix castor sugar and water till paintable – then brush on.  Makes a nice touch….) – (can be colored!!).

CAUTION:  (In the old country, they were served before Christmas dinner – as an appetizer. They work so well as an appetizer, that some people, (if they do not eat a good meal with/after the biscuits), may find that their digestion is overstimulated – “heartburn”).
If you have that problem – use less spices, or eat less biscuits!! ……

Also, in the old country, the biscuits were made in February, and eaten in December.
The improvement in flavor, in that time, has to be experienced, to be appreciated, or believed……
(Mine do not last that long!!!).                                     these recipes come from L G


GLUTEN FREE:        too easy!!    Just use only gluten free flour…….

LOW  GI:       (e.g. for diabetics).  I actually have made them  –  the hard part is finding a honey that has a very strong flavor. Then use just enough to give a flavor, plus very low GI natural sweeteners. Some native bees have a very strong flavored honey.
Here, there is a weed called “stinking roger”- well named! The honey from that is very strongly flavored!!  Very good for this – but hard to get.

Enjoy….
