Vegetarian Food- Animal Fats

Agape Goon — Mon, 01 Feb 2010 15:30:01 +0000

This term may refer to any dietary fats obtained from an animal source. Some vegetarian (though no vegan) foods, such as milk and cheese, contain animal fats. However where the term is used in food labeling it will normally refer to fats such as suet and lard. Since these are obtained from animals after slaughter they are not considered suitable for a vegetarian diet. Animal fats contain mainly saturated fats (see polyunsaturated fats)

Apple Juice and Apple Sauce

Agape Goon — Tue, 26 Jan 2010 02:00:38 +0000

Apple Juice – may be frozen, but should not be sweetened as fermentation sets in quickly. It is best made in the proportion of 1/2 pint water to 2 Ib apples or it can be made by simmering leftover peelings in water. The juice should be strained through a jelly bag or cloth, and cooled completely before freezing. It may be frozen in a rigid container, leaving 1/2 in headspace or in a loaf tin or ice cube trays, the frozen blocks then being wrapped in foil or polythene for easy storage.

Apple Sauce – Cook the apples to a pulp with a minimum of water. For the best flavour, this should be done in a casserole in the oven, using sluced but unpeeled apples. Sieve the sauce and sweeten to taste, adding a squeeze of lemon juice. Cool and pack into rigid containers, leaving 1/2 in headspace. Thaw for 3 hours at room temperature. Storage time : 1 year.
