Baked Grapefruit with Coconutty Crumble / Candied Ginger / Steamed Eggplant



Blog Post & Recipe: Baked grapefruit with coconutty crumble


1 grapefruit, cut in half
2 tablespoons organic unstabilised oats
1 tablespoon organic coconut sugar
1 tablespoon organic coconut oil (not liquid)


Blog Post & Recipe: Candied Ginger Recipe


I goggled candied ginger and Alton Brown's recipe popped up and it was so simple. I went to the Asian Supermarket and stocked up on fresh knobs of ginger.


Recipe: steamed aubergine [ via ]


To me, steamed aubergine sounds horrible but, believe me, this recipe is fantastic. Aubergines are usually fried or roasted, which makes them soak up loads of oil, but steaming means they go really soft and tender so that they're lighter to eat – which means you can eat a lot more!

Good Morning Bread / Sectioning a Citrus / Breakfast Greens



Recipe: Good Morning Bread


12 g oat bran
100 g flax seeds
145 g sunflower seeds
55 g dessicated coconut
125 g almonds


Blog Post: Sectioning a citrus


There are two reasons to section1 a citrus. The first is for presentation, an elegant way to use lemons, oranges and grapefruit pieces in all kinds of recipes, from salads to cakes. The second is to remove the tough, often bitter, pith and inner membrane so that the flavor of the fruit can shine.



Recipe: Kale continues awesome


If you prefer milder food, you can add a little sriracha sauce at the beginning of cooking, or just leave it out entirely. If you leave it out, I recommend adding a squeeze of lemon juice to the finished product instead. If you like spicy food, however, you should add your sriracha after you've taken the finished greens off the heat; this keeps the hot oils from evaporating, and makes the greens much more spicy.

Grapefruit



Article: The Kitchen Thinker: Grapefruit

One journalist considers grapefruit.

There’s plenty of pleasure to be had from a grapefruit, however, if you stop seeing it as punishment. Forget long-life grapefruit juice, which really is nasty, and search out the best fresh fruit. The modern red and pink varieties have enough sweetness to offset the bitterness.
