WHAT’S COOKING? Fried Rice Chicken and Rice Soup Rigatoni with meat sauce and ricotta cheese Huge Kudos to Dan from California for making the most delicious and special lasagna I‘ve ever eaten….I’ll always remember that flavor. Food Industry and Harvest News: Candy Maker to Invest $237 Million To Build Uah Plant To Make Granola Bars “This investment marks a significant milestone in the acceleration of our brand’s growth potential as consumer and retailer demand increase,” Steve Gardiner, CEO of Nature’s Bakery, said in a statement. “This facility joins our existing bakeries to reflect our commitment to innovation, quality, and sustainability.” The new plant is 339,000 square feet and in Salt Lake City, they can make almost a billion boxes of fruit bars and granola in this one plant. TODAY’S MAIN TOPIC: Steak fried rice is so delicious and filled with protein and other healthy ingredients, particularly animal fats in the form of eggs and beef tallow. I like to use tougher (cheaper) cuts of beef that I obtain from small grass-fed operations rather than the factory farm stuff, yuk! Fried rice, is a pretty simple dish and it can be made with just about any protein, or none at all. I start with aromatics in the form of shallots, garlic, chili peppers, ginger, and green onion, then add vegetables like peas, carrots, cabbage, bell peppers, broccoli, greens, brussels sprouts, squash, and also some basic sauces; soy sauce and oyster sauce. I love adding local eggs usually 3 but as many as 5 eggs per recipe to add in protein and substance. I DO NOT load it up with rice, I’d say f I weighed the ingredients, cooked, day-old rice would be 40% of the total weight. I’m not looking for a carbohydrate bomb, just adding some bulk and texture. It’s the principles of Food Storage Feast at work, using cheap ingredients mixed with pantry items, local veg, and local protein to make an inexpensive but flavorful dish. I usually cook rice the day before or the morning of, then place it on a sheet tray uncovered and place it outside in winter, or in the fridge. This helps the rice to dry out slightly which helps it get all “sizzled up” when cooking. Now that rice is accounted for let’s move on to prep the aromatics first, then the vegetables, and then the protein. I keep them all separated. If using red meat be sure to find the grain of the meat, cut long strips with the grain, then tiny pieces against the grain. The next step is to marinate the protein for about 1 hour in soy and oyster sauce, I’d say 3 tbs soy, 2 tbs oyster sauce, and mix well. I start by heating my wok to a medium-high, then I wok-fry the protein in beef tallow or duck fat until it’s starting to color and is cooked through, then add the aromatics and fry another 2 minutes tossing often. Remove and set aside. Add more fat, then the vegetables, and cook stirring often until they soften slightly, not looking for mush here people. Set aside, and back to the wok we go, add more fat and the rice, toss then let it start to crisp up before tossing again. One rice has some color and has been tossed around a bit I make a small well in the bottom, add a pat of butter or two then crack the eggs in, and let them cook for about 2 minutes before mixing it all up to distribute the eggs. Then add the meat and veg and a little more soy and oyster sauce plus a butt load of white pepper and toss well, taste it, if it needs salt add some or more soy. I like to serve with with my fermented pepper mayo, you can use Siracha, or Gochujang plus your favorite mayo ( make your own!!!!) to make this sauce. Drizzle it around the fried rice and dig in!

WHAT’S COOKING? Chili w beans White bean soup with parmesan broth Spaghetti bolognese Pot roast and pot roast soup Chik Fil A on Sunday-see photos FOOD INDUSTRY AND HARVEST NEWS: French Fry Demand is way off-Declining restaurant traffic created a potato surplus for one of the world’s largest producers of french fries. Boise, Idaho-based Lamb Weston Holdings purchased more potatoes than needed based on overly aggressive sales forecasts, President and CEO Tom Werner said on a second-quarter earnings call Jan. 4. The processor reported a $71 million charge to write off the excess supply. Demand for french fries has sputtered as consumers dine out less due to rapid inflation. North American sales volumes declined 4% in the quarter, though profits increased in part due to higher French fry prices. Arizona Joins Florida and Texas in Bid To Ban Lab-Grown Meat From Labeling Itself-Meat The bill seeks to prohibit the labeling of any products as “meat” that are not derived from livestock or poultry and instead were produced in a laboratory from cultured animal cells. This marks the latest pushback from lawmakers against the budding industry, as the traditional meat sector and some consumers raise concerns over its safety. TODAY’S MAIN TOPIC: Parmesan broth is a rather unique ingredient, have you ever made it or known anyone else who made it? Yes, exactly, it’s not that common. However, if you hate wasting food and want to make a unique flavoring agent for soups sauces etc, parmesan broth is your new friend. Elevate your cooking with the rich and savory depth of Parmesan broth. Crafted by simmering Parmesan rinds, aromatic vegetables, and herbs in a flavorful broth base, this versatile elixir adds a luxurious touch to a wide range of dishes. Its umami-rich flavor profile complements risottos, soups, and braised dishes, infusing them with a subtle nuttiness and a satisfying savoriness. The golden hue and velvety texture of Parmesan broth make it a delightful base for pasta sauces and grain-based dishes. Whether used as a foundational component or as a finishing touch, Parmesan broth is a simple yet indulgent way to enhance the depth of flavors in your culinary creations. I have used it to make a simple white bean soup, minestrone soup, and butternut squash risotto, and even added it to some chili….crazy I know! HOMESTEAD TSUNAMI: Pruning apple trees-I suggest you check out Stefan Sebkowiak’s pruning master class if you have trees or are planning to plant some. It’s a wealth of material from a true expert. Find the course here. Proper pruning is an art form and can really make a massive difference in the quantity and quality of your fruit harvests. ECONOMIC NEWS: US added over 1 trillion dollars in just over 1 quarter, the pace of debt accumulation is staggering, and this won’t end well. PRODUCT RECOMMENDATION: Combustion inc predictive thermometer, a simple tool that works very well. I have used this for roasts, chicken, and steaks and it is spot on. I highly recommend it. CLOSING THOUGHTS: PArm broth is a simple staple you can make to enrich many items, so if you have parm rinds or can buy them, I suggest you try it!

WHAT’S COOKING? Strawberry Kvass Fried Rice Various high-protein, low-carb, and low-fat foods-not my favorite way to eat. FOOD INDUSTRY AND HARVEST NEWS: More stories about olive oil fraud. This fraud is rampant and it’s hard to find authentic olive oil at stores. Domestic olive oil may be a better option but this requires research and cost. I recently watched this YouTube video and it is rather alarming. Join the olive oil club to get authentic oil. (Harvest Eating has no affiliation whatsoever) Check out this video TODAY’S MAIN TOPIC: Increasing Protein To Energy Ration To Build Muscle And Lose Weight The Protein to Energy (PE) diet, popularized by Ted Naiman, emphasizes the pivotal role of protein in the diet for optimizing body composition and overall health. This approach prioritizes consuming adequate protein to support muscle growth and repair, while minimizing excessive carbohydrate and fat intake. Naiman advocates for a focus on nutrient-dense, whole foods, and emphasizes the satiating effect of protein, which can aid in controlling appetite and promoting fat loss. By balancing protein intake with energy needs, adherents of the PE diet aim to achieve and maintain a lean, strong, and energetic body. Naiman's approach offers a simple yet effective framework for those looking to improve their dietary habits and achieve sustainable wellness. Download the EBOOK For $20 From Dr Naiman: (I AM NOT and affiliate) https://thepediet.gumroad.com/l/thepediet Protein Rich Foods When it comes to seeking inexpensive animal-based protein sources, there's a wide array of options that offer both affordability and nutritional value. Eggs stand out as a versatile and budget-friendly choice, providing an excellent source of high-quality protein.

Additionally, buying whole chickens and using various cooking methods to utilize every part is a cost-effective way to access lean protein. Embracing these inexpensive animal-based protein sources not only supports a balanced diet but also demonstrates practical and frugal meal planning. Chicken breasts and thighs are also excellent protein sources.
