A
quick and healthy way to make the most of
vegetables is to extract the juice from them.
Vegetable franks, Vegetable recipes, alone or
combined with other vegetable and fruit juices
make an ideal vitamin packed pick-me-up instant
breakfast, or can be used to add extra vitamins
and minerals to your diet. Wash or peel
vegetables and cut into chunks that will fit
into your juice extractor. To minimise vitamin
loss, cut vegetables immediately before juicing
and drinks the juice as soon as it is made.
Vegetables recipes suitable for juicing are
carrots, celery, tomatoes, parsley, cucumber,
capsicum, cabbage, beetroot and onion etc. From the
first tender carrots or young broad beans of spring, the sun-ripened
tomatoes and courgettes of autumn, to firm winter favorites like Brussels
sprouts or celery-the opportunities for rich and varied vegetable-based
dishes throughout the year are endless. And as more and more exotic
varieties are finding their way to our shops and supermarkets-aubergines,
artichokes, classify, pumpkins- there are always new taste to discover and
new ways of cooking vegetables to learn.
It is designed to restore
vegetables to their rightful and essential place
in the planning of a meal. Indeed, many of the
dishes described here can be served as meals in
their own right-a whole cabbage stuffed with a
delicious savory dolling, a tasty ratatouille,
leeks prepared with cheese and ham,
delicately-flavored soufflés or a hearty warming
stew of beans and bacon. To help even the most
inexperienced devise a well-balanced and
appetizing menu, advice is given on
complementing meat and vegetable dishes-lentil
puree with pork, for example or celeriac with
game-and there there are plenty of tips on
attractive and unusual garnishes.
