Serve it on a bed of shredded cabbage. Use the rest of the wasabi sauce for dipping. *This can be ordered at www.terrapinridge.com. Braised Beef Brisket (Serves 4) Braising is a method of slow cooking in a small amount of liquid that's well suited to tough but ultimately tasty cuts of meat. The prep for this meal takes about 15 minutes; then it cooks in the oven for about 3 hours. You '11 need a Dutch oven—a deep oval-shaped glass or metal cooking pot with a tight-fitting cover.

The bottom layer should be one or two leaves of kale or a bed of shredded cabbage. On top of this, arrange the other vegetables, with the harder ones toward the bottom and the softer ones toward the top, such as carrots, bell peppers, squash, broccoli, onions, and shallots. You can use different vegetables if you prefer. Drizzle about 1 teaspoon of olive oil on top of the veggies, along with salt and pepper. Next, place Grilled Fish and Veggies in Foil (continued) a fillet of salmon, tilapia, or another relatively firm fish on top of the veggies.

The young stalks were once cultivated as a vegetable; they can be eaten raw or cooked and are considered superior to cabbage. The flower buds, though small, yield a heart like an artichoke that can be eaten. The roots of the plant can be consumed raw, boiled, or steamed. Other Uses In magical traditions, milk thistle is worn as protection against negative energy and used in purifying baths.

Edible Uses Caraway seed is widely used in German, Austrian, and Dutch cuisine, including cabbage dishes, cheeses, crackers, pickles, rye breads, liqueurs, soups, and roasted apples. The leaves may be chopped and added to salads. Caraway root is also edible as a vegetable, much like parsnips. The alcoholic beverages Kiimmel and Aquavit and some spiced wines are flavored with caraway. Other Uses Caraway was used as a form of currency in sixth-century Persia.

By this, I mean, for instance, cruciferous vegetables like broccoli, cabbage, brussels sprouts, cauliflower, kohlrabi, and kale; fruits such as strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, melons, and oranges; and legumes, nuts, and seeds. Better carbs also include whole grains like brown rice, quinoa, and steel-cut oats. On the other hand, the worst kind of carbs are those nutrient-deficient sweet desserts and other processed "treats" that so many Americans crave— candies, cookies, cakes, ice cream, and soda.

Crucifers are strong-flavored vegetables, including broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage and kale. Alliums include onions and garlic. Both classes of vegetables reduce chronic inflammation and lower the risk of cancer, particularly breast cancer. Eat at least one serving of each daily. •Use only egg whites or unbroken egg yolks. The cholesterol in yolks has relatively little effect on cholesterol in the blood—but if the yolk is broken, the cholesterol is oxidized and produces inflammatory by-products. Poached or boiled whole eggs are fine. Avoid scrambled eggs and whole-egg omelettes.

SALTING AND MASSAGE The technique of salting, as indicated in many recipes, helps to soften hard vegetables such as cabbage, kale, or broccoli. Salt causes the vegetables to release moisture as it breaks down the cell walls. Digestion is made easier when these fibers are broken down. Foods that are high in cellulose will wilt slightly, creating a texture similar to cooked food. Green leafy vegetables can be "massaged" by using the hands directly to rub the salt into the greens. This effect is further enhanced by adding a small amount of an acid, such as lemon juice or apple cider vinegar.

When lentils are soft, mash them or blend with water and add into the cabbage pot. Add turmeric and salt. Remove from heat. Toss in cilantro, tomatoes, and lime juice. Serves 2.

PHASE 3 Replace the noodles with 2 cups raw thinly sliced cabbage or cooked or raw fresh asparagus spears, green beans, and mushrooms. Fried Chicken with Almond "Breading" PHASES 1-3, SERVES 2 (AND LATER 4) Believe it or not, it's not the oil used for frying that's killing you; instead, it's old oil that's turned into trans fats, plus the breading made from flour. Here's my version of the juiciest, most flavorful fried chicken you've ever tasted.

Serve over shredded cabbage. VARIATIONS þStir-Fried Beef with Green Beans and Basil: Replace chicken with thinly sliced flank or round steak. þStir-Fried Pork with Green Beans and Basil: Replace chicken with thinly sliced pork tenderloin. þStir-Fried Shrimp with Green Beans and Basil: Replace chicken with shelled medium shrimp. You'll need about a pound of unpeeled shrimp to yield a half-pound peeled. þAfter chicken is stir-fried, add 1/4 cup chunky all-natural peanut butter and 1/2 teaspoon curry powder mixed with 1 cup water; bring mixture to a boil and serve.

Thai red chiles or Japone or Chinese chiles, seeds removed, finely chopped; or V teaspoon red pepper flakes Vz pound thinly sliced boneless chicken breasts or thighs Vz pound string beans, cut into 2- to 3-inch segments 10 or more whole basil leaves Vz cup light coconut milk V to Vz teaspoon sea salt, or to taste 3 cups shredded cabbage, chilled Heat the oil in a wok or deep skillet over high heat. Add the zest, ginger, and chiles, and stir briefly. Immediately add the chicken, the green beans, and basil. Stir-fry for 3 or 4 minutes, until done.

Use shredded cabbage, grated zucchini, or beansprouts in lieu of rice or noodles in Thai or Chinese dishes, like my Angelic Jungle Princess with Chicken (page 244). Don't stop with vegetables. Sear tuna or salmon and serve it rare. When dining in a Japanese restaurant, order sashimi, not sushi. If you have a fishmonger who sells sushi-grade fish, you can make your own sashimi. Gravlax, the raw cured salmon Scandinavian delicacy, is another gourmet choice. Enjoy beef or lamb carpaccio on a bed of arugula leaves. How about steak tartare?

It probably explains why single-food diets, whether the Grapefruit Diet, the Egg Diet, the cabbage Diet, the Foie Gras Diet (yes, there is one), work well initially. You inherently eat less and less of a single food, if that's all that's available, to protect against the possibility of overloading your liver's detoxification system.4 Your genetic programming "makes" you eat progressively less and less of the same food to protect the body your genes are occupying, just as it made you take a breath when I asked you to hold it in Chapter 1.

Instead of serving over shredded cabbage, prepare tofu shirataki noodles the Dr. G. way (see page 216). Divide onto plates and top with stir-fry. Angelic Jungle PrinceAA with Chicken PHASE 1, SERVES 2 Here's my favorite Thai chicken recipe, which I adapted from the "Evil Jungle Prince with Chicken" served at Keo's on Oahu. I've taken the liberty of changing a lot of ingredients so that it can easily be made at home. Use as many chiles as you like, depending on your tolerance for heat.

Over a breakfast of fermented soybeans, pickled cabbage, and raw fish, David, Greg, and I came up with a game plan. Meanwhile, Rico frantically took notes, occasionally stabbing at her breakfast of bacon and eggs. Later that day, I'd arranged to meet Craig Willcox, a world renowned gerontologist and co-author of the New York Times best seller The Okinawa Program, at the hotel. In the early 1990s, Craig and his identical twin brother, Dr.

On occasion there may also be some vegetable: pipidn or ayote (Cucurbita moschata) or calabaza (Lagenaria), cabbage, the flower of pinuela (Bromelia pinguin) or some other wild product. Meat sometimes appears on even the poorest table, and there is usually cuajada, a milk curd. Tortillas come with this meal and afterward the men sip heavily sweetened black coffee, made from local berries or from the mashed seeds of nanju (Hibiscus esculentus). The evening meal is simpler, since the custom is to spend the afternoon in idleness, and appetites are less hearty.

Several vegetables, including mushrooms, broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower, Brussels sprouts, and other members of the Brassica family contain raffinose. When rafHnose ferments in the digestive tract, it can cause gas and bloating. Sometimes digestive enzymes, taken before the meal, will help. Also, isolating these foods, eating them away from other foods, so the body can act on them specifically, or limiting or avoiding them altogether if they cause too much digestive upset, is recommended.

Generally high-magnesium foods include apples, apricots, avocados, beet tops, berries, black walnuts, Brazil nuts, cabbage, coconuts, comfrey leaves, figs, dulse, endive, greens, spinach, rye, walnuts, watercress, and yellow corn. Dosage: 400 mg/day. Also, diabetics should take at least 50 mg of vitamin B-6 per day, as the level of intracellular magnesium is dependent on vitamin B-6 intake. Without B-6, it is difficult for magnesium to readily enter the cell. CALCIUM Calcium is an alkalinizing mineral that helps neutralize the acidity of diabetes.

There are a whole variety to choose from: carrots, celery, radishes, cauliflower, broccoli, peppers, red cabbage, green onions, snow peas, string beans. These can all be cut up and mixed together. They can be stored in a plastic bag or sealed container. When mealtime comes, a person can take a handful of these vegetables and then perhaps add some other ones that don't keep as well, such as tomatoes or sprouts. You then have a fresh salad that is already prepared with a lot of important nutrients. This is just one way of having food prepared in advance.

Place 1 to 2 tablespoons of the vegetable stuffing on each cabbage leaf where the thick stem is. Fold the right side of the leaf over it, then the left, and roll it up.
