How to measure flour!

October 18, 2014
7 Comments

Flour measurements can be one of the biggest variables when it comes to making the perfect bread or cake. In fact, really serious bakers prefer weighing their ingredients using a digital scale, because it is the most accurate method. However.....as a mom of 5, I just never took the time to do that, but I do agree that it is important to know how to measure flour and do so ... Read More »

I love that grilled taste you get on a BBQ grill in the summer but here on the East Coast, as our leaves are changing and the autumn chill is in the air, that time is fast coming to an end. So, here is a little tip on how to grill your shrimp or fish (like salmon, swordfish or the like, not the more delicate filets) or chicken or veggies in your cozy kitchen all year ... Read More »

It was an excellent question and one I would like to spell out here. As a trained scientist, and wife of a nutrition expert, I like to know the nutritional ... Read More »

He is theory, I am practice!

Leave a Comment

I am not a nutrition expert per se, I just live with one! David routinely says I have learned everything he knows about nutrition over the years. I don't think so! But as he also says, he is theory and I am practice- so I do know how to turn what he preaches into what our family practices. My intent in Cuisinicity is just to “translate” the evidence-based knowledge ... Read More »
