Confused and overwhelmed by healthy eating advice? What exactly do we need from our food?
Eating healthily is easy, right? Just make sure you have your five-a-day (or is it eight-a-day now?) when it comes to fruit and veg. Eat plenty of fibre (but what exactly is it, and how much of it do I need?). Cut down on meat (which types and by how much?), eat more fish (only sustainable, or is farmed OK?), ensure you're getting enough of the right types of vitamins and minerals. Oh, and and don't forget prebiotics and probiotics for gut health . . .
We are bombarded on a daily basis by too much confusing (and often misleading) information about what it is that we should be eating to keep ourselves healthy. It's easy to ignore it all and hope for the best, but now you don't have to . . .

This is food for families, for young people, for old people, for
children, for the child in all . . . for life.- Apples for Jam
Apples for Jam is a keepsake cookbook filled with savory recipes
woven together by a rainbow of colors, memories, and lavish
full-color photography. Tessa Kiros has circled the globe working
in restaurants in Australia, Greece, Mexico, and London. Her
extensive travel and multicultural background lend authenticity to
more than 200 recipes, which are grouped by color and presented
alongside vibrant photographs, sound cooking advice, and
heartwarming anecdotes about friends, family, and the whimsies of
childhood. Kiros shares a bevy of diverse and easy-to-prepare
dishes playfully themed in colored chapters. An index references
both specific foods and recipes. With memories of daisy chains, ice
cream cones, circuses, and four-leaf clovers, Kiros shares her
belief that good food sparks cherished memories that intensify
life's melting pot of flavor. A sampling of the flavors includes: *
Sage and rosemary mashed potatoes * Pecan butter cookies * Roast
rack of pork with fennel and honey * Pomegranate sorbet * Roasted
zucchini and tomatoes with thyme * Pan-fried sole with lemon butter
Not just a cookbook but an essential guide to Korean slow food and
fermentation, Chae follows the seasons of a calendar year: summer,
autumn, winter and spring. Each season forms its own chapter with
approximately 15–20 recipes and foundations, presenting traditional
Korean technique with native Australian produce.
Breakout star chef Jung Eun Chae makes everything from scratch in her
home kitchen on the outskirts of Melbourne, from dubu (tofu) to
gochujang (red chilli paste), ganjang (soy sauce) to kimchi, jocheong
(rice syrup) to doenjang (soybean paste). The meticulous, medicinal,
minimal-waste recipes and techniques are inspired by Chae's mother, who
was born in the South Jeolla province of South Korea. Forget the usual
Korean cookbooks of fried chicken, barbecue and bibimbap. This is a
radical, restorative journey into the heart of an ancient cuisine.
Jethro Kloss, author of Back to Eden, believed that food from
animals was not necessary in our diet. This is a practical guide to
natural living, combined with inexpensive vegetarian recipes. It
explains how to make animal protein substitutes - soy, nut milks,
cheeses and butter - at home.
