General cooking tips

Buy Organic Foods : There are 12 foods where buying organic makes even more sense than normal.
According to the EWG (Environmental Working Group) the 12 most contaminated foods are:
  • apples
  • bell peppers
  • celery
  • cherries
  • imported grapes
  • nectarines
  • peaches
  • pears
  • potatoes
  • red raspberries
  • spinach
  • strawberries
All tested positive for pesticide residue – even after having been washed! Sweet bell peppers were the vegetable with the most pesticides overall, with 39 pesticides detected on a single sample. Conversely, if you're going to buy conventional, peas, broccoli, onions, pineapples, mangoes, bananas, kiwi and papaya had the lowest occurrence of pesticide residue.

Ingredients And Procedures

16 oz Semi-sweet chocolate

1/2 c Sweet butter

1 1/2 ts Flour

1 1/2 ts Sugar

1 ts Hot water

4 Eggs, separated

Oil bottom of 8 or 9-inch springform pan. Melt chocolate and butter ( I did this in a saucepan, although the original recipe calls for it being done in a 200-degree oven.). Add flour, sugar, and water; blend well. Add egg yolks one at a time, beating well after each addition. In a separate bowl ( a metal one!) beat egg whites until stiff. Fold gently into chocolate mixture. Turn into prepared pan and bake for 15 minutes in middle of 425 degree oven (I found that in the 9-inch pan, I needed to extend this to 25 minutes for it to be completely cooked.). Let cake cool completely. Sift or sprinkle powdered sugar over top of cooled cake.
