I do a similiar thing and recommend this to my patients too.
I go through my cookbooks and write down the recipes and page number that look good, and keep it in the front of the book ...
OMG sorry -- my calculations are way off (I forgot to convert)!!
Add: 1/3 t to any of them will basically replicate it.
In a recipe, I would do 1/4 to 1/2 t.
Victoria -- to answer your question, it depends on which brand of butter you use. Cabot salted butter has 720 mg per stick, Land O'Lakes 680 mg per salted stick and Kerrygold (YUM!) has 840 mg/stic...
Wow I've never seen yellow "baby" carrots before. They're really pretty.
In orange carrots, alpha- and beta-carotene are the primary pigments that give them their orange color. Accord...
@preppycuisine --
As has already been established, most pastured eggs in this country are far less than $7.50/dz; that's an anomaly of living in the Bay area. It seems most places it'...
@ Houstonian -- ohjodi is absolutely correct -- if we quit the ridiculous practice of feeding grain/soy to our animals, we'd have plenty of space for pasteuring and the price would also come down. ...
Pastured eggs run $3.50 - $5/dz here in the NH seacoast.
And yes, they are absolutely, 100% worth it.
See those deep orangey yolks? That's a result of what the chicken e...
I used to live around a corner from a good grocery store and loved the close proximity. I shopped 3-4 times a week and threw out less food that way too.

This is the problem with "cheap" enameled cast iron -- the enamel doesn't hold up. I had been through 3 $50 Dutch ovens, each of which the enamel crazed or chipped in under 6 months and needed to b...

The Portsmouth, NH market opened 2 weeks ago (the 1st Sat. of May). Not much of a selection -- greens, seedlings, etc -- but still it's nice to be able to go.
I agree with TDS7 -- it was mean to post this at 11 am. :)
I LOVE Q tonic. It's amazing. I wish it weren't so darned expensive, otherwise it would be my standard tonic. I don't like ho...
PPS -- I would also like to add that you can get 18" wide dishwashers (24" is standard). A portable dishwasher has wheels, so you could store it out of the kitchen. They also have counter-like tops...
PS - and please paint over that hideous kelly green; it's terrible and I imagine will reflect light to make you feel like you're in a morgue with fluorescent lighting. Yuck.
Also, I'v...
Like others have said, you need to prioritize and also figure out what you can do yourself. Things like removing old cabinets and laying tile are reasonable to do yourself and will save a lot of $$...
