Juice Concentrates: A Comprehensive Guide

(Source – HealthifyMe)

Juice concentrates have become a staple in both the food industry and households due to their versatility, convenience, and nutritional benefits. This article explores the world of juice concentrates, delving into their production process, health benefits uses, and market trends, and offering tips on how to incorporate them into your diet.

Understanding Concentrated Juice

Juice concentrates are produced by removing most of the water content from fresh juice, resulting in a thick, syrupy product that can be reconstituted with water before consumption. This dehydration process not only extends the shelf life of the juice but also makes it more convenient for storage and transport.

The process begins with the extraction of juice from fruits, which is then filtered to remove pulp and impurities. The juice undergoes pasteurization to kill any harmful bacteria. Finally, the juice is heated under vacuum conditions to evaporate water, concentrating the natural sugars and flavors. The resulting product retains much of the original juice’s nutrients, though some loss of vitamins, particularly vitamin C, may occur during the heating process.

Juice concentrates come in various forms, including frozen, liquid, and powdered. Each form has its specific uses and benefits, making concentrated juices a versatile ingredient in the kitchen.

Health Benefits of Concentrated Juices

Juice concentrates offer several health benefits, especially when compared to sugary sodas and other artificial beverages. They are rich in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, which are essential for maintaining good health.

Nutrient Density: Concentrated juices retain a high percentage of the nutrients found in fresh fruit. For example, orange juice concentrate is a good source of vitamin C, potassium, and folate, which are vital for immune function, heart health, and cell growth.

Antioxidant Properties: Many fruit juices, such as those from berries and pomegranates, are high in antioxidants. These compounds help fight free radicals in the body, reducing oxidative stress and lowering the risk of chronic diseases such as heart disease and cancer.

Hydration: Reconstituted juice concentrate is a hydrating beverage option, providing not just water but also electrolytes like potassium, which are important for maintaining fluid balance in the body.

However, it’s important to note that concentrated juices can be high in natural sugars. Moderation is key, and it’s often best to choose 100% concentrated juices without added sugars.

Uses of Juice Concentrates

Concentrated juices are incredibly versatile and can be used in a variety of ways beyond simply making juice. Here are some innovative uses for concentrated juices:

Cooking and Baking: Concentrated juices can add a burst of flavor to dishes. They are often used in marinades, sauces, glazes, and salad dressings. For example, apple juice concentrate can be used to sweeten baked goods like muffins and cakes without adding refined sugar.

Beverage Mixes: Concentrated juices are a key ingredient in smoothies, cocktails, and mocktails. They can be combined with other ingredients to create refreshing drinks. For instance, cranberry juice concentrate can be mixed with sparkling water and a splash of lime for a tart, fizzy drink.

Desserts: Many desserts benefit from the intense flavors of concentrated juices. They can be used in sorbets, ice creams, and fruit gels. Lemon juice concentrate, for example, can be used to make a tangy lemon sorbet.

Nutritional Supplements: Some concentrated juices, particularly those from nutrient-dense fruits like acai and blueberries, are used in dietary supplements. These products capitalize on the concentrated nutrients to provide health benefits in a convenient form.

Home Brewing: Concentrated juices can also be used in home brewing to create fruit wines and beers. The natural sugars in the concentrates are fermented to produce alcoholic beverages with distinct fruit flavors.

Market Trends and Innovations

The market for juice concentrates is expanding rapidly, driven by several trends and innovations. Consumers’ increasing preference for natural and healthy products is a significant factor propelling the growth of this market.

Functional Beverages: There is a growing interest in functional beverages—drinks that offer additional health benefits beyond basic nutrition. Juice concentrates enriched with vitamins, minerals, probiotics, and other beneficial compounds are becoming popular.

Convenience Products: In today’s fast-paced world, convenience is king. Single-serve juice concentrate packs and ready-to-drink options cater to busy consumers looking for quick and healthy drink options.

Sustainability: Sustainability is a key concern for many consumers and manufacturers. Concentrated juices, due to their reduced volume and longer shelf life, are more eco-friendly compared to fresh juices, as they require less packaging and lower transportation emissions.

Innovative Flavors: The market is seeing an influx of unique and exotic flavors, appealing to adventurous consumers. Blends of different fruit concentrates, as well as concentrates from less common fruits like dragon fruit and yuzu, are gaining popularity.

https://gqresearch.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/2.4-Tips-for-Incorporating-Juice-Concentrates-into-Your-Diet-Source-jardins-liorzou.fr_.jpg

Read Labels Carefully: Choose 100% concentrated juices with no added sugars or artificial ingredients. This ensures you’re getting the most nutritional benefit without unnecessary additives.

Moderate Your Intake: While concentrated juices are healthy, they can be high in natural sugars. Moderation is important to avoid excessive calorie intake. Consider diluting the concentrate with more water than recommended to reduce sugar content per serving.

Experiment with Recipes: Don’t limit juices to just beverages. Try using them in a variety of recipes, from savory dishes to desserts. Their concentrated flavor can enhance many different types of foods.

Make Smoothies: Add a splash of juice concentrate to your smoothies for an extra flavor boost. Pair it with vegetables and protein sources like yogurt or protein powder for a balanced meal.

Stay Hydrated: Use concentrated juices to make flavored water. This can make drinking water more enjoyable and help you stay hydrated throughout the day.

In conclusion, juice concentrates offer a convenient, versatile, and nutritious option for both cooking and beverages. Their concentrated nutrients and flavors make them a valuable addition to any kitchen. By understanding their benefits and exploring creative uses, you can enjoy the best that concentrated juices have to offer while supporting a healthy and balanced diet.

Secret-Diary Recommends Some Music

I’m not exactly a ‘music person’, in that I don’t know a lot about the mechanics that underpin it: I couldn’t look at sheet music and tell you what the tune is or describe the change in chords in a classical piece. I’m not even 100% sure what the difference between a Ukulele and a Banjo is, aside from the fact that one is played by coquettish islanders while I get shit-faced on Pina Colladas in the background and the other is played by Louisiana bootleggers from the 1920s with comedy accents. All that being said, I know enough to know that the overwhelming preponderance of music produced today is total crap. Every time I’m foolish enough to tune a radio to a musical station, there’s a new barely-pubescent twatwipe peeping about their feelings in a tupperware voice that strongly suggests they don’t actually have any. Either that or its some nominally grown-ass man or woman singing something that they imagine is sassy and empowering but actually just makes them sound like Gary from World’s End- only less charming, because immature, quasi-literate manbabies are infinitely more annoying when they’re real. The point is, it’s a fucking wasteland out there. Trying to find a band (from now or the past) who you’d actually want to listen to can be a chore. That’s why, as your gracious patron and benefactor, I’ve decided to share the fruits of my musical explorations with you and hit you with some recommendations. I’ve tried to be as eclectic as possible, since I want everyone who reads this to find something they’ll like, no matter how radically divergent their individual tastes are. Some of the entries on this list are famous, some are obscure and some were famous but have been made obscure by the passage of time. I’ve tried to limit myself to people whose music you might not be fully aware of, even if you’ve heard of them to some extent, but I’m not plugged into what is and isn’t popular with peeps nowadays, so don’t read too much into my choices if they seem either too obvious or too bizarre. Here goes.

1. The Orion Experience An ultra-camp synthesis of New Romantic music, bubble-gum pop and modern vocal stylings, The Orion Experience are unlike anything else you’ll have heard recently. They seem to borrow as much from the original Decadent tradition in art and literature as from later musical iterations, meaning that their lyrics are complex and sophisticated without being especially deep. They’re primarily concerned with building aesthetically-interesting and richly-evocative language-constructs rather than performing an emotion that no-one in the band is actually feeling. The deliberate artifice is deeply refreshing in a musical landscape of faked sincerity and forced emoting. I recommend starting with the songs The Cult of Dionysus and Sugar. If you like those, the rest of their stuff may also interest you.

2. Trace Adkins During an attempt to write a wild west/sci-fi fusion novel, I went on a musical odyssey, looking for apposite songs that would gel well with the world I was building (knowing a world’s soundtrack can help cement that world in your imagination- try it, if you’re a writer yourself). Anyway, I stumbled across Trace Adkins- a country singer with a palpable sense of humour about being a country singer and a knack for delivering a silly-but-well-turned phrase. Also, without getting technical, his tunes just flat-out rock. I have no idea how well known he in the Country and Western World, but since his existence came as news to me, I’m sticking him on this list. Start with the surprisingly sexy Honky Tonk Badonkadonk and graduate to Hot Momma and Whoop a Man’s Ass. You’ll know if it’s your sort of thing from the first minute of any of those songs.

3. Caravan Palace Have ye heard of a thing called Electric Swing? If you’re reading a blog post about music, you probably have, but just in case you haven’t, let me tell you it’s a fantastic genre. Imagine if The Great Gatsby owned a synth and took a fuckload of mind-squanching hallucinogens. Well, that’s Electric Swing. Few do it better than Caravan Palace, who also seem to borrow heavily from club music and other genres, adding these to their unique blend. For some pure Electric Swing, start with Susie. For something a little more modern, start with Lone Digger.

4. 11 Acorn Lane Speaking of Electric Swing, I can also recommend 11 Acorn Lane, whose lyrics can be a little more playful than those of Caravan Palace. They also have a somewhat more classic sound. Start with Let’s Face it I’m Cute for a great sample of their work.

5. The Fratellis Now, my UK readers have almost certainly heard of The Fratellis, since they actually got some traction on mainstream radio over here. I’m less sure about those of you reading along in America, so allow me to make an introduction. Their music is joyously and unapologetically grimy and proletarian, paring an unrivaled sense of fun and energy with a sly, low-key feeling of cynicism and detachment. The tunes and melodies evoke Rock, punk and New-Wave (think The Ramones by way of The Proclaimers) without wholly relying on any of them. Check out Chelsea Dagger or Henrietta to hear them at their most gleefully up-tempo-yet-jaded, or try Vince the Lovable Stoner for a more chill, tongue-in-cheek song.

5. Dionne Warwick You’ve probably heard of her in connection with There’s Always Something There to Remind Me, especially since it featured heavily in that one fantastic episode of Black Mirror. However, you might not have realised just how much she’s contributed to musical history: her soft-yet-powerful voice and classic Rock rhythms and tunes combine to create something archetypal yet unique. Leap right in with Do You Know the Way to San Jose and discover a fucking legend.

6. Rufus Rex Ever wanted to hear a freakishly talented man singing songs based on horror films and books (particularly the works of H.P. Lovecraft) in a style that evokes Goth music but defies genre on closer inspection? Then get your arse over to Rufus Rex and start plumbing the nightmarish depths of horror-music with the song World’s In Between.

7. Studio Killers Contemporary electronic music with surprisingly inventive and weird lyrics. That about sums up Studio Killers, really. Look, not everything on this list can be genre-transcendent or epoch-defining: some things are just very good examples of the type of music they belong to. If you haven’t heard of them, start with the song Eros and Apollo then check out Ode to the Bouncer, then compare and contrast: those two songs represent the two opposite edges of the musical spectrum they cover, so if you like either one, at least some of their songs will be for you. Also, treat yourself to the music videos on Youtube: they’re surreal and awsesome.

8. Fishbone A punky ska band from back in the day, Fishbone are on this list for one reason and one reason only: Party at Ground Zero. Party at Ground Zero is an upbeat, gloriously energetic song about nuclear war. It’s a total jam and you absolutely have to experience it for yourself.

9. Tomska Tomska... isn’t technically a professional musician. He’s a Youtube comedian, short-film maker and collaborative animator who became internet-famous for his ‘ASDF movies’. On the off-chance that you haven’t seen them, they’re short collections of animated skits and jokes rendered in a simple but immediately-compelling and recognisable style. Anyway, Tomska decided to create fast-paced, catchy songs about some of the recurring characters in his ASDF movies, and those songs turned out to be fucking amazing- being both laugh-out-loud funny and actually really musically ambitious and well put together. Check them out on his channel. I’m particularly fond of Mine Turtles, but you do you.

10. Paul Anka Big band and jazz musician Paul Anka once set out on a quest to create 1920s-sounding versions of famous rock ‘n’ roll songs and the results can only be described as ‘eargasmically epic’. His versions of Jump and Eye of the Tiger are, frankly, better than the originals.

Right, that’s everything I can thing of for now. I’m going to go make myself a big sandwich. By the time your read this, I’ll be settling down with two-slices of bread, some cheese and an unreasonably large amount of cranberry sauce. All the songs and bands in today’s entry are on Youtube, so go have a nosy. Until next time, peace out and fuck off!

10 Things You Absolutely Must Know About Teeth Whitening

1. There is a teeth whitening method out there that will work for you

2. Teeth whitening is worth the trouble

When you are confident that you have nice white teeth it will show through in your smile and make you appear confident and self-assured. Whiter teeth also make you look younger and minimize the appearance of facial wrinkles.A 1998 study by the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry found that 85% of adults believe that an unattractive smile makes a person less appealing to the opposite sex. Teeth whitening goes a long way towards making sure that your not one of those people with an unattractive smile.

3. Teeth whitening is safe

The common methods of peroxide-based teeth whitening cannot damage your teeth. Some people may experience temporary side effects such as sensitive teeth or gum irritation. In most cases, gum irritation isn't even related to the whitening formula, but instead is caused by a tray that doesn't fit the mouth properly. What's the bottom line? Teeth whitening is perfectly safe. In fact, the American Dental Association even has an official statement recognizing its safety and effectiveness.

4. You can minimize the side effects

As mentioned above, some people experience minor side effects from the tooth whitening process. If you experience tooth sensitivity, simply give it a break for a few days then start the treatments up again. If sensitivity persists, switch to a toothpaste that is made for sensitive teeth. These toothpastes contain ingredients that can help to soothe the nerve endings of your teeth. If the treatment involves a tray, wear it for shorter periods of time. It may take longer this way but you will end up with the same results.

5. You can get dental quality results at home

This may surprise you, but whether you use an at-home teeth whitening kit or go to the dentist you will generally end up with the same results. So why do people pay so much more to have their teeth professionally whitened by a dentist? Mostly because of the dramatic results they can see right away. At-home kits usually take a couple of weeks to get the results of one or two dental visits. The up-side for the kits is that they are much cheaper than a professional whitening done by the dentist.

6. Whitening doesn't last forever

Generally, a teeth whitening will last for 6 months to a year. Of course this depends on the individual and the method of whitening that was used. For instance, an expensive dental office whitening will last longer than a cheaper method such as whitening strips. Many people feel that whitening kits with a custom mouth tray are the most cost effective way to keep teeth white because once you have the tray made you can simply purchase more gel at any time.

7. Whitening toothpastes have a misleading name

"Whitening" toothpastes, in most cases, do not contain peroxide which is the active ingredient for effective teeth whitening. Instead, they use mild abrasives and polishing agents to clean your teeth and help remove surface stains. Extra clean teeth can appear brighter, but whitening toothpastes will rarely whiten your teeth by more than a shade.

8. Watch out for the foods that stain

Heavily pigmented foods such as soy sauce, most varieties of berries, and cherries will stain teeth. Drinks such as coffee, colas and other dark soft drinks, teas and cranberry juice can also cause staining.

You can do a few things to keep these foods from staining your teeth such as brushing your teeth as soon as possible after eating staining foods. Don't forget to use a straw for drinks that stain. The straw will keep the staining liquid from getting on the front teeth.

9. Brushing your teeth hard and often will not make your teeth whiter

Actually the opposite is true. Brushing too hard or using a hard bristled toothbrush can actually brush away the enamel of your teeth over time. The thinner your enamel gets, the more the second layer of the tooth shows through. Unfortunately the second layer, called the dentin layer, is a yellow or brownish color. Yellow showing through on your teeth is certainly not the desired result. So, if you want to keep your enamel, brush gently and with a soft bristled brush.

10. Watch out for dangerous "natural tooth whiteners"

There is a lot of bad information out there about teeth whitening. For instance, some people say that brushing your teeth with lemon juice or rubbing lemon peel across your front teeth is a great way to whiten your teeth. It may whiten your teeth, but it is also eats away the calcium in your teeth which weakens the teeth and makes them much more prone to decay. Keep an eye out for these home remedies, most of them will do more harm than good.

The last time I ate here would probably be around 9 to 10 years by now and some things hasn’t changed, they still serve amazing Churrasco Experience in an affordable price compared to what they have in offer for you. I tried this place three times before and all of those experiences were great, all of them I was full to the brim and had some meat dreams and meat sweats the next day 🙂

Many years later, here we are again, and I am doing this as a birthday treat to myself, so this post was quite late by a couple of months. The last few visits we had we tried their Churrasco Completo which included desserts, it was a mistake because their cheapest option is more than enough, so that room for dessert will be a really tight fit on your belly. This time we opted out of the dessert and chose the Churrasco Experience that includes two course of Tapas & Tasters, Churrasco and Side Dishes for NZ$62.95. And during our visit these are what’s on offer.

For Tapas and Tasters, it was a selection of the following:

Breads & Spreads – cannellini bean puree, tomato tapenade Panko Piquillo Peppers – filled with Prosciutto-Manchego cream Escalivada – Catalan style roasted summer vegetables, crostini Brandade of Salt Cod – potato crema, virgin oil, focaccia toast Ciccioli Popsicles – sesame crusted pork terrine, Nuoc Mam Cham gel Jamon Serrano – sliced Spanish cured ham and compressed apple

This is usually served once you are seated, and it will be coming as a set, usually in one go. This was a good thing to start with, apart from the bread everything is not heavy, it’s just there you entice your taste buds, preparing it for nicer things to come. I loved everything on this set specially that Brandade of Salt Cod, if it’s not for the Churrasco, I will surely get extras of this one if possible.

Next stage was the churrasco, the server will ask if you are finished with your tapas, and once you say yes, you will be handed over that magic stop and start marker. Basically, a cylindrical wood with red and green sections, this basically instructs servers you need meat if the green part is up, and if the red part is up then it’s time for a break, so they won’t bother you.

For the Churrasco there was a good selection but this visit I was expecting that beef ribs but looks like they moved it to the premium selection, anyways what’s on offer was still great, and this is what they had on that day.

Leg of Lamb – slow roasted, rosemary, oregano, olive oil Angus Sirloin – wood-fire grilled, Bordelaise sauce Angus Beef Rump – butcher salt, sage, Dijon mustard Pork Roast – crackling, roasting juices Pork Scotch – cranberry-wine glaze Wildfire Pork Sausages – coarse ground, hint of nutmeg Hen Thighs – spit-roasted on the bone, citrus glaze Marlborough Salmon Fillet – oven roasted, salsa verde Crisp Calamari – persillade, lemon aioli Fresh Mussels – skillet grilled, salsa rosa

I told you, there was a lot and we tried them all. Everything was good but if I have to choose three it would be a hard decision anyways what’s the point you can try it all anyways. But for ranking sake the best three were the Pork Roast, Salmon and the sausages, they were all phenomenal, with right amount of fat on all of them, the meats were juicy and very tasty. The mussels deserve a mention as well as I like how it tasted, a bit sweet like barbecue, something new to me. Plus, the Leg of Lamb where the waiter asked if I would want the bone part. Looks like he knew me well, and I certainly did grab it. It was tender, juicy and not gamey at all, I love it.

While the churrasco is being served the side, dishes started to flow as well, and the selections are the following:

Daily Varying Salads – chef’s selection Seasonal Vegetables – sautéed, virgin oil, parmigiano Roast Agria Potatoes – garlic, lemon, herbs Casarecce Pasta – mushroom ragu, tomato Polenta Fries – truffled oil, parmigiano

Now is something to take less of, if you notice they are mostly heavy carbs so take in moderation, so you have space for your meat. But having said that we tried most of them apart from the Polenta Fries and Pasta. Potatoes were spectacular, very soft on the insides and the outer layer was nice and sticky crispy. I also loved the seasonal vegetables where it was served with broccoli, carrot and bok choy, well-seasoned and its perfectly cooked, they were still crispy. Very nice to the bite.

While enjoying all of that, I paired it with a 2018 Oyster Bay Marlborough Pinot Noir which went well with all the meats. And to top it all up since it was my birthday, we got a complimentary dessert in the form of lemon meringue pie complete with Brazilian Happy Birthday song from the amazing servers in Wildfire.

It was a good dining experience, the waiter assigned to us accommodated all our requests with a smile, he is a pro in what he was doing and made sure we are happy and comfortable with our experience. Combine that with the amazing food, great place, this is one of the must try restaurants in Auckland, for as low as NZ$62.95, it’s an experience surely to remember and treasure.

20 Alternative Flours You Should Know

If you are still baking primarily with whole wheat flour because you believe it is better for your health, you may not be aware of the many alternative flours that exist. While some are worth checking out, there are others that are best avoided altogether, such as corn flour and soy flour, which did not make the list as they are often produced from genetically engineered crops.

Many of the 20 alternative flours highlighted below are gluten-free. If you have celiac disease, a gluten intolerance or have chosen to go gluten-free for other reasons, you are very likely familiar with some of them. Gluten, by the way, is a protein made of glutenin and gliadin molecules that forms an elastic bond in the presence of water, thereby holding bread and cakes together and giving them a spongier texture.

Gluten is a concern because it interferes with your body’s ability to break down and absorb nutrients from food. Gluten contributes to the formation of a glue-like, constipating lump in your gut that can interfere with proper digestion.

Undigested gluten prompts your immune system to attack your villi, the fingerlike projections lining your small intestine, resulting in side effects such as abdominal pain, diarrhea, constipation or nausea. Gluten consumption can also predispose you to increased inflammation, nutrient malabsorption and deficiencies and other health problems.

Eight Healthy Alternative Flours

The eight flours shown directly below are, in my opinion, the healthiest of the 20 alternative flours addressed in this article. Each is gluten- and wheat-free. Two of my personal favorites are almond and coconut flour. Again, you will need to experiment a bit to figure out which types of flours work best with your recipes. When in doubt, start with smaller amounts of each type of flour and adjust from there.

Almond1— Almond is produced by grinding and sifting blanched almonds into a fine powder. (The terms almond flour and almond meal are often used interchangeably, but they are not the same. Almond meal is made by grinding almonds with their skins intact, a process that produces a coarser end product.) Because almonds are a tree nut, almond flour is naturally gluten- and wheat-free.

Almond flour is sweeter than other flours, low in carbohydrates and packed with protein and fiber. It is a good source of copper, magnesium, manganese, phosphorus and vitamin E. While almond flour can be used as a 1-to-1 replacement for wheat flour, it will have the effect of making baked goods denser and flatter than usual.

Amaranth2,3— Amaranth flour is a gluten-free, wheat-free flour produced by grinding the seeds of the amaranth plant into a fine powder. Not only does amaranth flour contain all nine essential amino acids, but it is also a good source of calcium, iron, magnesium and phosphorus. While technically not a grain, amaranth flour is grain-like and is described as having an earthy, nutty taste.

Because it is a dense flour, you will achieve better results when blending amaranth with other flours. Start with 25 percent amaranth and adjust from there. It does best in pancakes and quick breads and can also be used to thicken roux, soups, stews and white sauces.

Arrowroot4,5— Derived from the root of the plant of the same name, arrowroot flour (also known as arrowroot starch) is a tasteless, odorless powder useful as a thickening agent.

It is far superior to cornstarch, which is often genetically engineered. It also can be used as a breading for fish and meats or blended with other gluten-free/wheat-free flours to make baked goods.

Arrowroot contains a good amount of B vitamins, iron and potassium, but no protein, which gives it superior thickening power. As such, it is often used in confections because it creates a perfectly clear gel that can stand up to acidic ingredients and freezing. Accordingly, it is often used to thicken fruit gels and fruit sauces, including cranberry sauce and sweet and sour sauce.

Coconut6,7— Coconut flour consists of the dried meat of fresh coconuts after they’ve been pressed to make coconut milk and most of the oil has been extracted. When used as a replacement for conventional flour, it adds a mild coconut flavor while imparting a rich texture and natural sweetness.

Coconut flour is nutritious, in part, because it boasts the highest percentage (48 percent) of dietary fiber of any flour. It’s also a good source of protein, while being very low in carbohydrates. And, it’s naturally gluten- and wheat-free.

You can turn standard baked goods into delicious gluten-free, low-carb paleo treats by replacing the wheat flour with coconut flour and adding eggs. On average, add one egg for every ounce of coconut flour used ­­— this will help the ingredients hold together when baked. Also, because it is very dense, you will need to slightly increase the liquids in recipes involving coconut flour.

As a general rule of thumb, you can replace one-fifth of the flour in a recipe with coconut flour without compromising the taste or texture of the finished product. For a delicious breakfast treat, check out my recipe for coconut flour almond meal pancakes.

Hemp8— Hemp flour (also known as hemp powder) is produced by milling and sifting hemp seeds after they are crushed to extract the oil. Hemp flour is gluten- and wheat-free and adds a mild, nutty flavor to baked goods. It is about 33 percent protein, making it a great source of amino acids. It is high in fiber, iron, magnesium and zinc.

This dense flour does best when combined with other alternative flours for baking. Limiting hemp powder to 25 percent of your flour blend will ensure a lighter texture, especially when baking bread. Due to its oily nature, hemp powder will go rancid unless it is refrigerated.

Millet9,10,11— Millet is an ancient, drought-resistant grain — part of the grass family — grown widely in China, India and countries surrounding the Sahara Desert in western Africa. It has a protein structure similar to wheat, but is gluten- and wheat-free. It boasts a sweet, buttery, cornmeal-like flavor.

Millet is a good source of B vitamins and offers a decent amount of copper, manganese, magnesium, potassium and zinc. That said, millet also contains goitrogens, dietary substances known to impair your thyroid and iodine metabolism.

In countries in which millet is consumed as a staple, the development of goiter is common.12,13 As such, you’ll want to moderate your intake.

Sorghum14,15— Sorghum flour, which is both gluten- and wheat-free, is ground from the grain of the same name. It is an important dietary staple for some 9 million people worldwide, and is used often in Africa and India to make porridge and flat, unleavened breads. The Ethiopian flatbread called injera and a particular type of Indian roti are both made with sorghum.

Sorghum flour is a good source of antioxidants, B vitamins, fiber, iron phosphorus and protein. It has a mild, slightly sweet taste, which makes it a good addition to flour blends. It does not work well in cup-for-cup substitutions with regular flour.

Tapioca (cassava)16,17— Tapioca flour is derived from the root of the cassava plant, producing a fine white flour useful as a thickener for gravies, sauces, soups and stir-fries. Tapioca adds chewiness to gluten-free and wheat-free baked items, and can be stored at room temperature for long periods of time.

Due to its bland taste, blending tapioca with other flours is best when using it for baking. Start by using 25 percent tapioca in your gluten-free blends and adjust according to your preference. When using sorghum flour for baking, you may want to increase your liquids slightly or add an extra egg to increase moisture content. If you are a diabetic or prediabetic, tapioca, as a digestive-resistant starch, is one of the recommended superfoods for diabetics.

Two additional “flours” I want to bring to your attention are those derived from cauliflower and macadamia nuts. To me, “cauli-flour” is simply riced cauliflower that can be spiced up to make a tasty flatbread or pizza crust. You can rice cauliflower by placing pieces of raw, washed cauliflower in your food processor and blending it until it is reduced to tiny, rice-sized pieces.

If you like cauliflower, check out these delicious recipes for nutritious golden cauliflower flatbread and cauliflower pizza crust. By using cauliflower instead of grain flours in these recipes, you replace starchy carbohydrates with whole-food nutrition and cut calories, while satisfying your craving for bread.

Similar to almond flour, macadamia flour is produced by using your food processor to transform whole, raw macadamia nuts into a fine powder. Macadamia flour has a sweet, nutty taste and is a healthy gluten-free, low-carb option. Macadamia flour is lower in both carbs and protein than almond flour. For a new taste twist, you can substitute macadamia flour into recipes calling for almond flour, including the coconut-almond pancake recipe mentioned above.

12 Flours to Avoid if You Want to Minimize Harmful Lectins

The 12 flours highlighted below are often touted as healthy alternatives to wheat, especially when it comes to gluten-free diets, whether it be celiac disease or simply a matter of personal preference. While some of these alternative flours are considered nutritious solely based on the amount of fiber, protein, vitamins and minerals they contain, their health benefits may be overshadowed by the presence of harmful plant lectins.

Lectins are sugar-binding plant proteins that attach to your cell membranes and can be a hidden source of weight gain and ill health, even if you eat an otherwise healthy diet. Many lectins are proinflammatory, immunotoxic, neurotoxic and cytotoxic.

Certain lectins may also increase blood viscosity, interfere with gene expression and disrupt endocrine function. Because the following flours are high in lectins, I recommend you use them sparingly or avoid them entirely, especially if you have an autoimmune disease.

Barley18— Barley flour is made from milled whole grain barley that’s had its outer husk removed. This wheat-free flour contains some gluten and has a slightly sweet, nutty flavor. Barley flour is rich in fiber. Similar to oat flour (discussed later), it contains high amounts of soluble fiber composed of indigestible sugars called beta-glucans, which have been shown to lower your blood pressure.

For best results, use barley flour in a blend with other flours, and limit it to about 25 percent of the overall mix. It can also be used to thicken or flavor soups or stews.

Buckwheat19,20— Despite its name, buckwheat (also known as kasha when its toasted) flour is not a form of wheat, but actually a relative of rhubarb. Because it is ground from seeds, buckwheat flour is both gluten- and grain-free. Due to its strong nutty taste, which can be overpowering and somewhat bitter, buckwheat flour should not stand alone in a recipe.

Buckwheat, which is a good source of calcium, fiber and protein, is a very fine flour and can be used as a substitute for cornstarch in gluten-free bread recipes. Buckwheat is a low-glycemic carbohydrate offering better satiety than wheat bread, so you’ll feel fuller longer. You can replace regular flour with buckwheat flour cup-for-cup. It is said to make excellent waffles and pancakes, including Russian blinis, as well as French buckwheat crepes.

Chia21,22— Chia flour is produced from ground chia seeds and is touted as a superfood because it is a source of concentrated energy and nutrition. Chia flour boasts a high calcium, fiber, omega-3 and protein content. When baking with chia flour, you will need to increase the amount if liquids and cooking time to achieve the best results. Chia flour is gluten- and wheat-free.

Chickpea23,24— Also known as garbanzo bean flour, chickpea flour possesses a distinctive, slightly nutty taste that does not do well on its own. When substituting it for conventional flours, use very small amounts in combination with other gluten- and wheat-free flours, otherwise its distinctive taste may dominate. Chickpea flour is high in fiber, folate, manganese and protein.

Lupin25,26— Lupin flour is derived from the “sweet lupin” legume that is in the same family as peanuts and soybeans. As such, this gluten- and wheat-free flour is high in fiber and protein and low in fat. The major caution about lupin flour is the possibility it may be life-threatening if you have a peanut or soybean allergy. Similar to other gluten-free grains, lupin does best when included in a flour blend.

Oat27,28— Oat flour is made from ground oats, which can be concerning if you have celiac disease since oats are often contaminated with wheat. Even if you avoid wheat, you still need to contend with avenin, a protein in oats that is similar to gluten and therefore can have negative effects on celiac sufferers.

Oat flour is often thought to be a healthy choice because it contains high amounts of soluble fiber comprised of indigestible sugars called beta-glucans, shown to lower your blood pressure. Oat flour is well suited for baking, but absorbs liquids, so plan to increase liquid ingredients when using it. Oat flour goes rancid quickly, so store it in your refrigerator or freezer, or make small batches using a food processor.

Potato29— Potato flour and potato starch, both of which are gluten- and wheat-free, are often confused. Potato flour possesses a very strong potato flavor, as well as the heaviness of potato. For these reasons, a little goes a long way in a recipe. It also has a short shelf life, so buy it only when you plan to use it.

Potato starch, on the other hand, has a light potato flavor and a consistency similar to cornstarch or tapioca. It has a longer shelf life, is a good thickener and has a taste virtually undetectable in recipes. If you are a diabetic or prediabetic, potato starch is one of the digestive-resistant starches recommended for diabetics. Both the flour and the starch cannot stand alone in recipes, and will do better when blended with other gluten-free flours.

Quinoa30,31— Quinoa flour is produced from milled quinoa seeds. This ancient grain with a nutty flavor is both gluten- and wheat-free. It is recognized for its high amounts of lysine and isoleucine that enable it to be a complete protein source. It is one of the few plant foods containing all nine essential amino acids.

As a whole grain or flour, quinoa is particularly rich in two flavonoids, kaempferol and quercetin, which have antioxidant properties. Quinoa flour tends to dry out baked goods when used in large amounts. For that reason, it is best to use only small amounts of this flour in sweets such as muffins and quick breads.

Rice32,33— Both brown and white rice flour are gluten- and wheat-free. Brown rice flour is the heavier, grainer of the two. While it has a higher nutritional content than its white cousin, brown rice flour can be a bit grainy and heavy in some recipes. Similar to potato and tapioca, brown rice flour is one of the digestive-resistant starches recommended if you are a diabetic or prediabetic.

Brown rice flour has a slightly nutty flavor, whereas white rich flour is quite bland. Given that white rice flour is milled from polished white rice, it has very little nutritional value. Its strength is in the light texture it imparts, making it ideal in recipes such as dumplings and pizza crust.

Keep in mind that rice contains chitin-binding lectins, which are similar to wheat lectin. Because chitins are long polymers of n-acetyl-glucosamine, the primary binding target of wheat lectin, wheat lectin and chitin-binding lectin are functionally identical. Given this reality, in my opinion, a grain-free diet often yields far superior health benefits as compared to a diet focused solely on eliminating wheat- and gluten-containing grains.

Rye34,35— Rye flour is a dark flour that possesses a distinctive flavor. It is wheat-free and has a low gluten content. Breads made with rye flour tend to be denser than those made with wheat. When milled, rye flour retains the germ, endosperm and bran, making it more nutritious than refined wheat flour. Rye flour is a good source of B vitamins, iron, magnesium, phosphorus and zinc, as well as fiber and protein.

When used in baking, rye flour, due to its lower gluten content than wheat flour, is less elastic and therefore produces bread that is less airy. Rye dough also contains more free sugars than wheat, so it ferments faster.36

Spelt37,38— Spelt flour results from the milling of an ancient grain of the same name. Spelt flour contains a low amount of gluten, but is not entirely gluten-free. It is a good source of B vitamins, manganese, magnesium, phosphorus and zinc, and rich in fiber and protein. Spelt tends to absorb more moisture than wheat flour, so you will want to reduce liquids by 25 percent when substituting it.

When using spelt flour to make bread, take care to knead it lightly otherwise it will become dense. Spelt flour produces a bread similar in color to light rye, with a slightly sweet and nutty flavor. Some varieties of crackers and pretzels are made with spelt flour.

Teff39,40— Teff flour is made from milled teff, a tiny cereal grain originating from northern Africa. Teff flour is a primary ingredient in the spongy, slightly-sour flatbread called injera that is eaten daily in countries such as Eritrea and Ethiopia.

It is both gluten- and wheat-free, with a mild, nutty flavor. Teff is an excellent source of amino acids, and is high in calcium, iron and protein. Much of its fiber is a type known as resistant starch, which has been linked to health benefits such as improved blood sugar and weight management.

Final Thoughts About Alternative Flours

Using alternative flours will require patience and can be quite a challenge. If you are living a gluten-free lifestyle — either due to celiac disease, a gluten or wheat intolerance or simply as a matter of personal preference — you will need to do some experimenting to achieve your desired outcomes. The struggles and rewards of gluten-free baking come in blending several flours, adding eggs and adjusting liquids.

The biggest adjustment, however, will be in your expectations for the finished product. No matter how many techniques and tricks you use, it is virtually impossible to replicate the elasticity of gluten in most baked goods, particularly in yeast breads. In time, however, you’ll acquire a taste for denser, flatter treats made with one or more of the healthy alternative flours.

As you make a conscious choice to eat less wheat-containing foods, or perhaps to avoid wheat altogether, mainly because it is an inflammatory food, you’ll be happier and healthier. I would say the same for the alternative flours containing lectins — it’s better to avoid them or moderate your use.

20 Alternative Flours You Should Know

If you are still baking primarily with whole wheat flour because you believe it is better for your health, you may not be aware of the many alternative flours that exist. While some are worth checking out, there are others that are best avoided altogether, such as corn flour and soy flour, which did not make the list as they are often produced from genetically engineered crops.

Many of the 20 alternative flours highlighted below are gluten-free. If you have celiac disease, a gluten intolerance or have chosen to go gluten-free for other reasons, you are very likely familiar with some of them. Gluten, by the way, is a protein made of glutenin and gliadin molecules that forms an elastic bond in the presence of water, thereby holding bread and cakes together and giving them a spongier texture.

Gluten is a concern because it interferes with your body's ability to break down and absorb nutrients from food. Gluten contributes to the formation of a glue-like, constipating lump in your gut that can interfere with proper digestion.

Undigested gluten prompts your immune system to attack your villi, the fingerlike projections lining your small intestine, resulting in side effects such as abdominal pain, diarrhea, constipation or nausea. Gluten consumption can also predispose you to increased inflammation, nutrient malabsorption and deficiencies and other health problems.

Eight Healthy Alternative Flours

The eight flours shown directly below are, in my opinion, the healthiest of the 20 alternative flours addressed in this article. Each is gluten- and wheat-free. Two of my personal favorites are almond and coconut flour. Again, you will need to experiment a bit to figure out which types of flours work best with your recipes. When in doubt, start with smaller amounts of each type of flour and adjust from there.

Almond1 — Almond is produced by grinding and sifting blanched almonds into a fine powder. (The terms almond flour and almond meal are often used interchangeably, but they are not the same. Almond meal is made by grinding almonds with their skins intact, a process that produces a coarser end product.) Because almonds are a tree nut, almond flour is naturally gluten- and wheat-free.

Almond flour is sweeter than other flours, low in carbohydrates and packed with protein and fiber. It is a good source of copper, magnesium, manganese, phosphorus and vitamin E. While almond flour can be used as a 1-to-1 replacement for wheat flour, it will have the effect of making baked goods denser and flatter than usual.

Amaranth2,3 — Amaranth flour is a gluten-free, wheat-free flour produced by grinding the seeds of the amaranth plant into a fine powder. Not only does amaranth flour contain all nine essential amino acids, but it is also a good source of calcium, iron, magnesium and phosphorus. While technically not a grain, amaranth flour is grain-like and is described as having an earthy, nutty taste.

Because it is a dense flour, you will achieve better results when blending amaranth with other flours. Start with 25 percent amaranth and adjust from there. It does best in pancakes and quick breads and can also be used to thicken roux, soups, stews and white sauces.

Arrowroot4,5 — Derived from the root of the plant of the same name, arrowroot flour (also known as arrowroot starch) is a tasteless, odorless powder useful as a thickening agent.

It is far superior to cornstarch, which is often genetically engineered. It also can be used as a breading for fish and meats or blended with other gluten-free/wheat-free flours to make baked goods.

Arrowroot contains a good amount of B vitamins, iron and potassium, but no protein, which gives it superior thickening power. As such, it is often used in confections because it creates a perfectly clear gel that can stand up to acidic ingredients and freezing. Accordingly, it is often used to thicken fruit gels and fruit sauces, including cranberry sauce and sweet and sour sauce.

Coconut6,7 — Coconut flour consists of the dried meat of fresh coconuts after they've been pressed to make coconut milk and most of the oil has been extracted. When used as a replacement for conventional flour, it adds a mild coconut flavor while imparting a rich texture and natural sweetness.

Coconut flour is nutritious, in part, because it boasts the highest percentage (48 percent) of dietary fiber of any flour. It's also a good source of protein, while being very low in carbohydrates. And, it's naturally gluten- and wheat-free.

You can turn standard baked goods into delicious gluten-free, low-carb paleo treats by replacing the wheat flour with coconut flour and adding eggs. On average, add one egg for every ounce of coconut flour used ­­— this will help the ingredients hold together when baked. Also, because it is very dense, you will need to slightly increase the liquids in recipes involving coconut flour.

As a general rule of thumb, you can replace one-fifth of the flour in a recipe with coconut flour without compromising the taste or texture of the finished product. For a delicious breakfast treat, check out my recipe for coconut flour almond meal pancakes.

Hemp8 — Hemp flour (also known as hemp powder) is produced by milling and sifting hemp seeds after they are crushed to extract the oil. Hemp flour is gluten- and wheat-free and adds a mild, nutty flavor to baked goods. It is about 33 percent protein, making it a great source of amino acids. It is high in fiber, iron, magnesium and zinc.

This dense flour does best when combined with other alternative flours for baking. Limiting hemp powder to 25 percent of your flour blend will ensure a lighter texture, especially when baking bread. Due to its oily nature, hemp powder will go rancid unless it is refrigerated.

Millet9,10,11 — Millet is an ancient, drought-resistant grain — part of the grass family — grown widely in China, India and countries surrounding the Sahara Desert in western Africa. It has a protein structure similar to wheat, but is gluten- and wheat-free. It boasts a sweet, buttery, cornmeal-like flavor.

Millet is a good source of B vitamins and offers a decent amount of copper, manganese, magnesium, potassium and zinc. That said, millet also contains goitrogens, dietary substances known to impair your thyroid and iodine metabolism.

In countries in which millet is consumed as a staple, the development of goiter is common.12,13 As such, you'll want to moderate your intake.

Sorghum14,15 — Sorghum flour, which is both gluten- and wheat-free, is ground from the grain of the same name. It is an important dietary staple for some 9 million people worldwide, and is used often in Africa and India to make porridge and flat, unleavened breads. The Ethiopian flatbread called injera and a particular type of Indian roti are both made with sorghum.

Sorghum flour is a good source of antioxidants, B vitamins, fiber, iron phosphorus and protein. It has a mild, slightly sweet taste, which makes it a good addition to flour blends. It does not work well in cup-for-cup substitutions with regular flour.

Tapioca (cassava)16,17 — Tapioca flour is derived from the root of the cassava plant, producing a fine white flour useful as a thickener for gravies, sauces, soups and stir-fries. Tapioca adds chewiness to gluten-free and wheat-free baked items, and can be stored at room temperature for long periods of time.

Due to its bland taste, blending tapioca with other flours is best when using it for baking. Start by using 25 percent tapioca in your gluten-free blends and adjust according to your preference. When using sorghum flour for baking, you may want to increase your liquids slightly or add an extra egg to increase moisture content. If you are a diabetic or prediabetic, tapioca, as a digestive-resistant starch, is one of the recommended superfoods for diabetics.

Two additional "flours" I want to bring to your attention are those derived from cauliflower and macadamia nuts.

You can rice cauliflower by placing pieces of raw, washed cauliflower in your food processor and blending it until it is reduced to tiny, rice-sized pieces.

Macadamia flour has a sweet, nutty taste and is a healthy gluten-free, low-carb option. Macadamia flour is lower in both carbs and protein than almond flour.

Is Tofurky Actually Worse Than the Real Happen?

By Perry Santanachote, Life by Daily Burn

One of the biggest meat-eating holidays is upon us: Thanksgiving. A era when even the most steadfast vegetarians pray a centerpiece to carve; when steely will and tasty side dishes alone wont cut it.

Many imitation turkey commodities, including Tofurky, are available this time of year to cater to the 7 percent of Americans that consider themselves vegetariansespecially those who still miss their flesh. Dr. Brian Wansink, a meat psychologist at Cornell University and writer of Slim by Design: Idiotic Eating Solutions for Daily life, says, People who are attracted to meat-shaped veggie meat are vegetarian for health reasons , not animal-rights intellects, and theyre the biggest growing part of that market.

A Mintel report shows that surely 36 percent of consumers( including non-vegetarians) are buying meat alternatives to be healthier. But are these products genuinely any better for us? Sure, cutting back on flesh( specially red-faced flesh) going to be able to prevent heart disease and cancer in a number of cases, but replacing it with treated flesh substitutes comes with world prices of its own.

Most meat replaces are highly handled and full of artificial fillersnot unlike the hot dog we might have already sworn off. Numerous are made from soy protein separate, wheat gluten and other textured vegetable proteins, but also questionable parts that help gel and mold them into meat-like shapes.

Rachel Berman, R.D ., columnist of Boosting Your Metabolism for Dummies and health editor at About.com, says to read the box before buying. Be cautious of a long ingredient register, she enunciates. The more it has, the more likely there are additives and preservatives in there to stabilise the nutrient, contribute flavor, or change its consistency.

Some of these additives put into processed foods include undesirable sums of extra salt, fat and sugar and those are the ingredients we are in a position enunciate! Other artificial additive have been shown to have side effects that include nausea, dizziness, weight gain, declined absorption of minerals and vitamins, and even cancer. The Center for Science in the Public Interest has a list of additives to forestalls and their potential side effects.

Most ingredients in simulation geese still do search better than treated fleshes, and better than many other meat substitutes in the frozen food area, too. But not all are created equal.

For those vegetarians buying a imitation turkey this year, Berman recommends opting for an all-natural select like Gardeins Savory Stuffed Turky. Theyre making an effort to use all-natural ingredients , good-for-nothing genetically engineered and mostly things that youre able to enunciate, she answers. Plus, they contain no compounds or genetically modified soy, which most others use.

Products like Quorns Turky Roast, which exploits mycoprotein, a processed mold, gets a big thumbs down for Berman. There ought to have many reports of this trash inducing gastrointestinal distress and no investigate saying this is something that is healthy, she articulates. Its altogether artificial and mostly a fungus reached in a test tube.

Like numerous processed foods, bogus flesh is likewise high in sodium, but it doesnt have as much saturated fatten as the real stuff. Most of them, however, accord real turkey gram for gram when it comes to protein, plus they include fiber, which is a bonus. So, plowing yourself to a faux turkey one day out of the year isnt going to kill you, but its not exactly health food, either. I dont really like to label any one food good or bad because its really about the sum of what youre eating in a date, pronounces Berman. If youre going to eat an resemblance nutrient, exactly make sure the rest of your dinner is coming from the earth.

The gelatinization is actually caused by the pectin in the berries, in the same way apples will gelatinize themselves in a pie! There are no animal additives or anything. It is just a cranberry confit!

The reason is it so conformed to its shape is that cranberries are much, MUCH drier than most berries, and WAY higher in pectin. So, instead of a syrupy effect like you get from making a strawberry confit, you get a very strong gel.

You can totally get the same effect by pulping cranberries, filtering out the seeds, and cooking the pulp and juice in sugar in a pressure canner. After about a month, it will be very conformed to the shape of the jar.

Pectin extracted from cranberries and apples is often sold in baking stores for making fruit pies with! If you've ever tried to make a pie from fresh blueberries, you know exactly how much thickening agent you need, haha.

Also, ocean spray cranberry sauce is (used to be? I think still is) gluten free. So that's nice!

And they look out so hard for the well being of the spiders AND the dolphins
