Using pears; the problems with salt & a reminder

Posted by kathryn in Blogging

Ten Minute Kitchen: pears

The latest issue of Life etc magazine is out. This includes my regular recipe column: Ten Minute Kitchen. The featured ingredient in this issue is pears. The column includes three recipes for:

  • Pork cutlets with pear
  • Pear & berry compote
  • Roasted pears with blue cheese

Here in Australia, Life etc is on sale from newsagents. If you just want the recipes you can download them from their website. Just click on the button, about half way down the right-hand sidebar.

Is salt a problem?

In the last Q & A Thursday I answered a question about salt: how much sodium in a low salt product?

I’ve written a longer and more thorough exploration of salt for the latest issue of Wellbeing magazine. So if you want to know what salt does in your body, how much you’re eating and whether it’s bad for you, pick up the latest magazine from a newsagent.

The Pantry Challenge: a reminder

And a quick reminder about the Pantry Challenge. Given a list of 15 common pantry items – what would you make?

For more about the Pantry Challenge click here and remember the deadline is 9.00am Monday 29th September. And this is 9.00am my time, ie Australian Eastern Standard Time. Happy cooking.

Mmm, roasted pears with blue cheese sounds delicious! I’ve got a nice pear recipe on my site – proscuitto wrapped pears with rocket and balsamic reduction.
