This page is a note to myself what I still want to write about here.

Cooking&more

Recipes for baking (sugar free/less), cooking and basic knowledge.

Kitchen knowledge

Replacing wheat flour with spelt/dinkel wheat is always a good idea - when getting brown, it gets an awesome taste. Try mixing different grains (e.g. 630 and 1050 or whatever you have available).

Question: What do the numbers on flour mean?

Question: What do the numbers on flour mean?

Flour numbers show ash (mineral) content, measured by burning the flour and weighing the residue.
Lower numbers mean whiter flour, higher mean more whole grain - and therefore richer in minerals.


- organic food (bio) should be considered regular food. It is not an upgrade, it is the standard. Non-organic food is a degradation.

- See the difference of baking soda and baking powder

- Brown&crusty:

Maillard reaction vs Acrylamide

Maillard reaction vs Acrylamide

bases vs acids in foods

bases vs acids in foods

The body cannot produce bases, only acids. It is up to you to eat non-acid food.
Search for “PRAL table” as pdf, e.g. like this one: The-PRAL-Table.pdf
IIRC, there is a study stating that cancer patients are overacidified.

- 🥕 “revive” carrots: If you put slouchy carrots into water, they become luscious again :) Then you can cook them soft once more if you like to :D

- Quit eating (industry) sugar, it helps. Sweeten with fruits and/or organic applesauce. Get used to high percentage (90%+) chocolate (yes, you will learn to love it. I comes automatically when stop eating the regular sweets;).

Knowledge

Following is basic knowledge which IMO should be thought in school:

#TODO: Still missing,

- baking soda with non-organic veggies/fruits
- bakingschool + ingredients ratios/Zutatenverhältnisse for basic dough
- backenmachtgluecklich
- Vinegar & citric accid & Lemon: clean & cure and cultivate food + remove limescale
- the effect of sugar
- sugar (and salt) are a habit. Just reduce it continually a bit. (the body needs salt, just not too much)
- (un)saturated fatty acids + Omega3/6 + Fats and its max. temperatures
+ DHA stuff + you probably cannot satisfy hunger with nuts, as they contain no carbs (but lots of fat)
- Süßrahm- vs Sauerrahm- Butter vs Öle
- potato chips cause pimples (tortilla chips do not for me)
- protein / egg white
- how to cook the perfect egg: calculator webpage
- the different kinds of flour + raw dough stomachache
- https://bakeschool.com/baking-101/ + https://bakeschool.com/category/baking-science/ + https://bakeschool.com/focus-on-baking-soda/ + simplyrecipes baking FAQs
- rub garlic off hands with warm water only, no soap - the smell won't stick
- how to cut onions
- why do avoid aluminium (in deodorants too!) + plastic coated side
- which side of bakery paper is the correct one?
- diary products: schmand vs creme fresh vs quark vs joghurt
- warm water: yeast+flour
- different types of sugar/sweeteners
- you can half the amount of sugar of regular recipes easily - just replace with flour. Try it out! :) - hautpilz zucker
- Glykämischer Index (GI) und Glykämische Last (GL) | best eat carbohydrates and fat separately | Resistente Stärke
- Why to avoid carbohydrates and sugar in the evening?!
- Seasonal foods calendar
- nutritional pyramid / Ernährungspyramide
- refrigerator temperature zones | what can(not) be frozen?
- ethylene of fruits
- lebensmittel mindmap: the illusion of choice
- anti-mosquito oil
- be creative and reuse leftovers. Fun fact: Plattdeutsch: “Wenn du dien Teller leer ittst, dann gifft dat morgen goodes wedder.” ← 'wedder' heißt 'wieder', nicht 'Wetter' = Übersetzungsfehler
- always wash rice thoroughly, it is polluted with arsenic.
- what you eat has an influence on sun sensitivity of the skin. Before summer holidays: avoid citrus fruits; eat foods high in antioxidants (like berries, nuts, and green leafy vegetables); Ultimate Tip: Take calcium with beta-carotene (e.g. Avitale Calcium Sun 500 powder) to help protect the skin from UV damage (does not replace suncream! smokers should be aware of too much β-carotene, the combination promotes (even more) lung cancer)
- Smoking speeds up caffeine metabolism (via CYP1A2), but not vice versa. Caffeine and nicotine act synergistically in the brain but do not affect each other’s metabolism. Does not mean you should smoke at all ;)

- ZDF TV show “Besseresser” with Sebastian Lege is nice to watch: in Mediathek and Youtube. Please keep in mind that this is a TV show which might lack profundity - always check and think yourself.
