kinda obvious but reminder to myself.....

Put smoothie immediately in wide mouth containers, rinse the blender jug, then buzz the blender with water + washing up liquid.

self cleaning = big time saver & blades stay sharper than if they're washed in dishwasher.

If I take the jug + glasses the jug will dry out & be a lot more effort to clean thoroughly. Which reduces my inclination to make it next time. #cooking#food


Oats have some fairly unique positive health properties, plus they're a very flexible ingredient. Making my smoothies rich/creamy by adding, rolled, steelcut, porridge etc oats.

For me it's a quick route to get berries & fruits in, maybe some frozen spinach + hydrate. Plus it's way cheaper to use water + oats to be creamy rather than (plant) milk.

Also I can add a bit of milled linseed which is healthy and a dash of maple syrup or similar.

Oats & lentils are really healthy. Oat groats the whole grains are a lot like rice and can easily go either sweet or savoury direction with the mix. It's very handy to sometimes make up a pot. It will fridge for days just fine. You can grab and dollop out a portion from it for a range of meals.

Here adding some to a cup of mushroom potato soup.

Needed a fast snack before making dinner. Super ravenous as fasted until evening, after 60 minutes back day weights plus about 70minutes bike cardio.

Sunflower seed rye bread. Peanut butter (Meridian good brand). Kimchee. Beetroot sauerkraut. Pinch sprinkle of chilli spices and salt. Simple spicy tasty.

Crispy Spiced potatoes.
0.85kg potato. Cube potatoes, splash of tamari or soy sauce, then microwaved until soft (try 10mins with 1000w), shake in pot good for fluffy edges, then coated / tossed with with spices (and optionally nutritional yeast, milled linseed & fenugreek), then air fried on 200 for 15mins, turn + add quartered red onion, then 10mins more airfry for the extra crispy yum.

20minute bean stew.
Reuse microwave pot with spice leftovers, stir spices through frozen peas beans carrots whatever you have really with a tin of chopped tomato, then 10mins microwave, stir + add a tin of mixed beans and tin black beans, then 10mins more microwave. Serve with lime or lemon or spring onion or chives or whatever is to hand really.

Sundried Tomato and Jalapeno Sourdough toast, with peanut butter & sprinkle of Togarishi spice.

Post workout meal after all day intermittent fast. 1600kcals ish.

So.. ..apart from the a.gup.pe group and #vegan#plantbased#veganCooking is there anything else I should tag in when doing #food / #recipes ???


So these Linda McCartney Red Onion & Rosemary sausages are same amount of protein but about 100kcal per 2 sausages versus maybe 370kcal for 2 regular sausages. It's far less fats & zero cholesterol basically.

There is an open database project called @openfoodfacts

It is the largest #food database in the world!

It can be used for anything from checking #Nutritional scores to #environmental impact of the food packaging.

Unfortunately, there are not many #Indian food products in the database.

You can help expand it.

Since I love any chance talk about reducing #food waste (which wastes energy, water + contributes to #ClimateChange) I made this PBS short on why we needn't be so quick to toss out those brown bananas 🍌

What #film or #tv show - (past or current) brings you joy?

Right now I find Julia (on Max) just delightful. The series follows Julia Child as she creates The French Chef.

While I admit I may be biased given I work on a PBS #food show, I don’t think that’s it. The actors are outstanding & it’s beautifully filmed - the colors are somehow both realistic & richer than real life. Characters are people I want to spend time with & every episode makes me smile.

The new episode of Serving Up #Science tackles “expiration dates” & why so many of the “sell by” & “use by” dates on #food labels are meaningless while contributing to our enormous food waste problem + #ClimateChange.

One of the things I was able to do on the birdsite that there just isn't much opportunity to here is find out "current events" in carob by doing a search every week or so.

If you ever see a carob toot, please forward it to me, especially if it's not a tired carob hippie joke, but actual research or market or real life info re Ceratonia siliqua/#Carob

Please boost to get my request out there. Thanks so much! @plantscience

When we think of #food, we often aren’t paying attention to soil, but it’s actually what sustains our global food system.

Unfortunately, #ClimateChange, unsustainable farming practices & more are degrading soil around the world.

I don’t get to see each episode of Serving Up Science until they are published, but I like this new video. And I’m so glad they let me talk about soil health. https://youtu.be/FnOHwq6iSpk?si=5umwoGQU7DFrdhCD

This season on Serving Up Science, we covered edible insects which are surprisingly good, healthy & sustainable.

Tremendous thanks to Chef Junior Merino of M cantina for sharing outstanding Mexican cuisine. https://youtu.be/t-1q3fcOxJU?si=wHZwgT9zWtoXkkYl #science #food


Many believe a significant way to address #climatechange is to 'eat local,’ but that’s not always true. The impact all depends on the kind of #food + how & where it’s produced.

Some foods require fewer resources (water, energy) in some parts of the world. Season can be important. Overall, transportation has a much lower carbon footprint than land use change. And so on.

So instead of ‘eat local,’ let’s go with ‘eat thoughtfully.’ https://ourworldindata.org/food-choice-vs-eating-local


Does it really matter what eggs you buy?

Season 4 of Serving Up Science is out today & this episode covers what terminology like "cage-free," "pasture-raised," "organic" & more really means. #food #science


According to OurWorldInData, 80 billion animals are slaughtered for food each year.

The scale of what eat (& waste) is massive, which contributes to #ClimateChange & degrades the environment.

In the US, we consume ~280lbs (127 kg) /person/year (not including fish & seafood).

Beef has the most significant environmental impact & Argentinians consume 104lbs (47 kg) of beef/person/year. #food


Decided to be more active here, so let me reintroduce myself! I'm a zooarchaeologist researching #Farming and #Food of the past. I study animal and plant remains 🐐🌾, apply biochemical analyses 🧪, and want to use this knowledge of the past to contribute to #Sustainability today 🚜

Latest batch. This time with almost three weeks fermentation of habaneros, bird’s eye chilis, carrots, onions and blueberries 🫐

It’s as delicious as it looks!

An upcoming episode of Serving Up Science is all about how soil sustains life & is critical in conversations about #ClimateChange & #food security.

Here you can see two glasses where I poured water over tilled (left) & untilled (right) soil.

The details will be in the full episode, but the take home is that soil structure matters. Healthy soil prevents erosion & flooding, stores carbon, supports biodiversity & keeps our crops growing. 🌱


A significant, if not predominant, proportion of carbon footprint within the “#food system” comes from direct or indirect usage of fossil fuels, which include energy supply, fertilisers, supply chain and logistics, packaging / plastics, cooking and serving etc.

Therefore, from a purely scientific perspective, I am not sure your challenge to Musk’s statement stands as you might be speaking of similar things just in different terms.

I don’t like to mention that rich guy over at #Twitter, but he’s rambling on about #ClimateChange & agriculture, which is in my wheelhouse. And he is also unabashedly & absurdly wrong.

Misinformation on climate change is irresponsible & dangerous, so let’s be clear:

25% to 30% of global emissions come from our #food system.

As UT Austin’s Michael Webber describes, agriculture is a major cause, victim and - importantly - meaningful solution to #climate change.

Did you know a pepper becomes a chile when it is picked & dried?

A green jalapeño or cuaresmeño becomes chipotle. A poblano turns to an ancho.

This infographic from El Jornalero provides a simplified look at some of the most common names of Mexican capsicum peppers & chiles. #food #science

Meat industry blocked the IPCC’s attempt to recommend a plant-based diet

“A leak of a draft of the Intergovernmental Panel on #ClimateChange (#IPCC) report..has been particularly enlightening when it comes to just how much how delegations negotiate, watered down & delete scientists’ findings.”

You may have heard that the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change - the #IPCC - released a new #climate report.

Here’s the most important take home:

There are *still* so many feasible & effective opportunities to reduce greenhouse gas emissions & adapt to #climatechange available right now.

Climate solutions will improve #food, energy & water security, benefit global health, promote equity, conserve biodiversity & boost the economy.

For those interested in how #food waste drives global problems, Michael Webber & I spoke on this at the annual #Science meeting in 2019. /2

https://youtu.be/VKGnSosN7ks?t=37


Food waste is responsible for at least *6%* of global greenhouse gas emissions.

We can change that. Right now.
