At Chow.com there’s a tasty-looking recipe for grilled salmon with a maple-mustard glaze that wouldn’t increase the PointsPlus count by much, a huge index of recipes for summer fruits and vegetables, a recipe for zucchini noodles (!!), and Supertaster’s review of the by-now-famous PB2! (Direct quote: “It’s actually delicious.”) Supertaster also provides a review of Burger King’s new-and-already-notorious Bacon Sundae, which can be summed up as “For those who like this sort of thing, this is the sort of thing they like.”
Serious Eats gives a wholly undue amount of attention to the Japanese phenomenon of “Matomeruko-Easy Powder”, a substance which makes chewable foods edible by those who have difficulty chewing: mix the food item with water and the powder, spin them all in the blender, and the result has the taste of the food item but the consistency of Jell-O. Why someone regarded this as a valid reason to make a Giant Jell-O McDonald’s Hamburger utterly escapes me.
Darya at Summer Tomato explores enjoying vegetables when you grew up detesting the very concept, in an article titled, “I Love You Mom, But You Suck At Cooking Vegetables”: targeted towards those of us who learned in early childhood it was normal to boil spinach and green beans and broccoli until they were yellow.
Tomorrow is National Peaches and Cream Day: not too PointsPlus heavy if you just use a trickle of cream. Similarly, the 25th is National Strawberry Parfait Day: layer strawberries with fat free yogurt, get a fruit and a milk serving in one parfait dish! And this date in 1861, Frederick Gowland Hopkins was born: he’s the one who discovered that it takes more than just a proper balance of protein, carbohydrate, fat, and water to maintain good health. He wasn’t sure what the “more” might be, but he called them “accessory food factors”. Today we call them “vitamins”. His paper, “Feeding experiments illustrating the importance of accessory factors in normal dietaries”, was originally published in the Journal of Physiology in 1912; if you've having trouble with the link or can't read a PDF file, post a note in Comments and I'll bring a copy to next week's meeting.
