December 4, 2009, Newsletter Issue #196: How to make vegetable more palatable

Tip of the Week

When it comes to cooking vegetable dishes for a veggie-hater, recipe is the king.

Try to start with such versatile a vegetable as avocado. Its natural taste is rather subtle allowing for using it as a fruit in fruit recipes or as spread (just add some sharp cheese, or dill and garlic, etc.)

For example, take a regular banana cake recipe and use avocados instead of bananas, plus an extra sweetener and banana extract.

Depending on your culinary preferences, try cold cut wraps with lattice leaves instead of pitas or flat breads, or adding finely chopped fresh parsley, chives, coriander, and the like to your broth and non-vegetable soups, or cook stews with lots of vegetables that 'dissolve' in the process, like onions or carrots.



Even pilaf, when cooked properly, is 1 part lamb, 1 part rise, and 1 part onions plus carrots.
