Cook with Cast Iron Cookware and Keep the Change:


My suggestion is in two parts:

chef_happy2First Part:

Make a change that will amp up the flavor of all kinds of dishes. It does not matter if it is sweet, spicy or smoked, garlic is loaded with healthy nutrients and you will love the results.  You may be thinking that garlic’s  most common use is to ward off vampires. Even if you are of “Team Jacob” (from the Twilight books, which I enjoyed), these little cloves from the lily family can help maintain normal cholesterol levels and contain the compound allicin, which has an anti-fungal action and is what imparts that pungent odor. Even as I write this blog post I have a pot of beans cooking with onions and garlic and the kitchen smells delicious.

Lawrence E Karol writes in the March 2010 issue of Body + Soul Magazine:

In the kitchen, garlic embraces everything it encounters–vegetables, meat, pasta–and when roasted, it’s practically a confection.”

Do not be an “alliumphobe” = fear of garlic, onions or leeks.

Make the change to cooking with garlic and I suspect you will keep the change.

Make the change to cooking with cast iron cookware, if you have not already done so.

Your purchase of cast iron cookware is more than a purchase. It is an investment. Long after you have forgotten what you paid for your cast iron cookware, you will remember the quality of the cookware.

This ultimately means more change to keep in your pocket since you will not be purchasing new cookware every few years.

Be Careful Who Your Cast Iron Camp Cookware Hangs With This Summer

Before you head out to the great outdoors for your family vacation or to your great backyard for your family’s “staycation”, make sure your cast iron camping cookware can hang out with you properly. Choose from a 43 inch or a 60 inch Lodge Camp Dutch Oven Tripod. They are also great for hanging your coffee pot, lantern or kettle. The hot rolled 1/2 inch solid bar stock is durable and steady. The galvanized chain allows you to adjust the height for your cast iron cookware. You can also get a Tote Bag for your Lodge Tripod and be ready to follow your favorite team next Fall when you tailgate.
