Notes

Use organic ingredients as much as possible.
When cutting and preparing it’s best for body and mind to stand on both feet equally balanced facing your cutting board. More focused and peaceful.
The maybe’s….choice for each occasion will be different, lemon juice, ginger juice, drop of shoyu ( I go easy on this one) Please experiment. This is lovely with umeboshi vinegar, white miso, oil, apple conc’ with drop of cooking water.
These cooking waters have great nourishment, always keep them - we do need to save gas and electricity and be mindful of our ability to use everything we create - way into the future, for ourselves and Mother Earth. As the indigenous people say…..for our childrens’ childrens’ children!
