Fresh ginger, that knotty rhizome, and DELICIOUS spice is now found in almost ALL supermarkets. No need to go to an Asian specialty store and no need to use powdered ginger because the fresh root is so widely available. I use it year-round: with some rice wine in a marinade to “freshen” up the flavor of seafood, to flavor soups, stews-even desserts. There’s nothing like the flavor of Poached Pears or Peaches in a Cinnamon-Ginger Syrup. And candied or crystallized ginger is just as popular in my household. I sprinkle it over fresh fruit, add it to fruit salads. It’s the SECRET ingredient in my Peach-a-Berry Cobbler!! I even suck on it when my throat is feeling scratchy (It’s also believed to be anti-bacterial and will kill germs). Asians believe it settles the stomach so if you feeling slightly nauseous, suck on a little piece or brew yourself some lovely ginger tea!!

Pyramid on a Plate #1: Healthy Chinese Food Exposed
04/23/07

Nina Simonds and Dr. Eric Rimm visit a Chinese restaurant and reveal how you can order a delicious and healthy meal. The Center for Science in the Public Interest ( CSPI ) came out with a recent report in their Nutrition Action Healthletter on food from Chinese restaurants. Nina and Eric describe how to order menu items that are steamed with sauce on the side, brown rice instead of white, and explain how you can order items that are not on the menu. Nina and Eric bring the USDA food pyramid to life. Dr. Eric Rimm is an Associate Professor at the Harvard School of Public Health. Restaurant: CK Shanghai Steve's Technical Notes: This episode was filmed entirely on a Nokia N95. It was edited together with iMovie and compressed from .mp4 to 320x240 H.260 .mov using QuickTime. The food was amazing and I loved the steamed asparagus with mushrooms.
