Fast Food? o Junk Food

Fast Food? o Junk Food

It is estimated that between 30% and 40% of all meals are eaten outside the home and the "fast-food" account for 20% of this market, maybe not for lack of time but because they represent a culture that Youth takes with ease. Fast food establishments have become regarding where young people spend many evenings on weekends.

Seductive Temptation

Fast service, extended hours, affordable prices and a vast network of strong advantages are fast food chains. According to the Spanish Federation of Hotels and Restaurants (FEHR), in Spain there are about 3,000 premises of this type and their number is growing. But its success lies not only in comfort: fast food has captured, whether we weigh, our palates, despite its bad reputation nutrition all have on occasion succumbed to a hamburger or a slice of pizza. The consequences of changes in eating habits are felt, one of two Spanish overweight and cardiovascular disease with a mortality rate of 35% in 2000, is the leading cause of death in Spain.


What kind of products you offer?

Fast food products can be classified into two groups: the Anglo-Saxon influence and features such as burgers, sausages and chips accompanied by various sauces (mayonnaise, mustard, ketchup?), And those of Mediterranean origin, such as pizzas, sandwiches, tapas and kebabs (marinated meat skewers Arab wrapped in pita bread and accompanied by vegetables and yogurt sauce). For its nutritional characteristics, the Mediterranean-style fast food or Arab can be considered more healthy than Saxon.

Within these products should not be forgotten dishes of other countries that are a novel form of fast food, like burritos Mexican or Chinese food, besides the wide range of cooked products (lasagne, cannelloni, paella, empanadas, croquettes?), increasingly demanded by consumers. Given the heterogeneity of these products is not easy to determine representative nutritional value. However, all have something in common: a high energy density due to its high fat content (especially saturated fat and cholesterol) and carbohydrates (bread, pita, pizza base, pancakes?). And although they provide quality protein (eggs, meat, fish, cheese?), Fall short of fiber, vitamins and minerals, except sodium (salt). And do not forget that the number of calories you eat up, and wonder if the food is accompanied by French fries, pastries and soft drink or alcoholic beverage.

Fast food abuse

The consumption of such food does not pose any health problem if it does not become a habit or replace basic food. But what is happening is that more people include them as the basis of their diet, without being aware of the nutritional dangers involved.

Excessive energy
With just a fast food meal is eaten more than half of daily energy required. If we add the energy from the other meals of the day, the energy content of the total intake triggers and promotes excess weight.

Too much fat and cholesterol
Saturated fats, in excess tend to increase blood cholesterol levels, and cholesterol are abundant in these products due to egg-based sauces, butter, cream, butter and other fatty ingredients used in its preparation, and The coconut and palm oils used in frying.

Difficult digestion
In most cases food is fried, breaded or battered, so it is richer in fat, which is heated even more indigestible.

Abundant additives
In general, these products contain more salt than those prepared at home, partly because sodium is used as a preservative.Furthermore, to achieve the look you want in color, smell, taste and texture are added preservatives, dyes, anti-caking agents, stabilizers, etc. These dishes often include strong spices or additives that enhance the taste and stimulate appetite and, over time, alter the perception of taste and habit forming.

Healthy Alternatives

Fast food does not necessarily mean bad food. Proper selection and proper food intake frequency can make a quick meal original proposal, balanced and healthy.

Fast food at home?

If you do not have time or we are too lazy to cook, we often resort to fast food. Although it is not advisable to abuse it, when we prepare at home at least know for sure the quality and quantity of ingredients used. The key is to include other foods on the menu to complement the food, nutrient, in order to develop a balanced and nutritious fast food.

Pizza or sandwich with lean ingredients (cheese, ham, natural tuna, chicken, turkey, veal?) And vegetables (tomato, onion, peppers, mushrooms, artichokes, spinach, zucchini, eggplant, etc..), Salad and fruit.

Burger (beef or chicken) grilled with low fat cheese slice, salad, baked potatoes or cooked (and not always fries), bread and fruit.
Turkey sausage sandwich with tomato sauce, little mayonnaise, salad and juice.

Lower fat chips: roasting in the microwave a few minutes and sauté with a little oil to toast. If they are fried, spread on paper towels to lose the excess oil.

Refreshments less energy: choosing the light version, or better, replace them with water or juice.
Fast food away from home?

If you eat out, the choices tend to be limited, although there are chains that have begun to expand its offering healthier foods including salads, fruits, yogurts?

Tips for a successful restaurant

Tips for a successful restaurant

* Among those who invest in a restaurant, there are few who care to find out objectively the tastes and preferences of potential customers, and new culinary trends among certain population groups.
Not analyze carefully the direct and indirect competition they might face such as restaurants with similar menus and other different dining options.

* Having someone who cooks well and is not capital that is needed to open a restaurant let alone ensure its success, is also needed to have a menu of gourmet quality, variety and presentración also an ideal setting, a friendly and efficient service, reasonable prices, very convenient location, little or no competition, good publicity and, of course, good management.

* The average gestation time of an independent restaurant is usually 1 to 2 years. Not enough to open its doors for a restaurant to gradually acquire prestige and achieve break even, much less profits.

* The bold entrepreneurs forget that the restaurant sales depend largely on advertising expenditures and sales, and this is almost always spared.

* Other expenses are generally underestimated or ignored taxes, financial interests, social security, settlement occasional personal, unexpected job demands, increases in raw materials, rents and services, renewal of licenses, equipment maintenance, spraying, etc.

* Remember that to be a successful restaurateur not enough to have a good recipe, something borrowed and own capital or a lot of effort because the money is very matado.Tiene to know more about the craft restaurateur and have greater administrative capacity and leadership.

* This business requires a lot of perseverance and sacrifice of both the owner and his family to achieve success, however, and when they finally begin to generate profits, work is intensified, and this is where very few entrepreneurs and resist it, while others choose to throw in the towel.

* Many restaurateurs start your business with relatives, employees, shareholders and creditors on board, trusting blindly in the driver without first analyzing your customers and potential competitors, without minimal training in administrative, not rigorous evidence menus do not seek Additional specialists in design, cuisine and marketing, and have an action plan that tells them what to do and when to reach your goal, which is usually ambiguous or unrealistic.So when the business fails, not only are collapsed emotionally, but also very indebted.

* It is a mistake to believe that if something has worked for years, should not be changed. The menu and ambience of a restaurant, need to adapt to the changes that show the population, their potential customers.
Do not refuse to remodel its stores, upgrade their kitchens and train staff of the restaurant, although it is able to accumulate large profits through the years.

* Advertising: usually resort to it when sales are low or walk, which is, when competition begins to gain ground nearby. Do not assume that spending on advertising and promotion should be permanent and therefore should occupy a significant portion of the operating budget, up to 10% or 15% according to some experts, even in times of strong sales volumes.
In other cases for wanting to save the payment to an agency specialized in the area, the restaurant owners create their own programs and advertising strategies, but to see the little impact of his advertising, he was considered wasteful.

* Assume that frequent customers always will be, forgetting that it is they and their families, as well as friendships first, who should contact the special promotion. They forget to reward the loyalty of their customers and do not make an effort to retake it every day.

Of ECA to the Cup, guide of the wine for clumsy

Since the day I tried my first wine and I am referring to the first glass I drank, and not to that I have a wine propio…. I knew that this was going to become my drink choice especially for comidas big and special dinners.

What would a meeting around a table, without to provide with a glass of good wine in your hand? It would be missing something, really!

I must confess that my knowledge on the subject are quite rare, but always have called me the attention, the attitude and the vocabulary that use the experts to express themselves, and of them I have tried to learn, even the basics to buy themserve them and enjoy them.

But of course, if you like the wine and you want to delve more into this world, it is necessary to soak up a little in your bibliography, and be able to discover this fascinating world, full of wonderful curiosities.


My recommendation is to start with a guide to the wine for clumsy, easy and simple, like this which has made David Noel Ghom, "De la Cepa a la Copa" .

In it you can gradually discover worldwide oenology, on the basis of a historical approaches, where discovered us things as interesting as the origin of the wine, as apparently comes from the vitis vinifera species which has its source in the South of the Black Sea between the Georgia and Armenia areas. Or that the first drunk of the story is collected in the old testament in reference to the vineyards that Noah planted on the ship.


After this the book offers a Decalogue on the different types of wine and its classification (by upbringing or sweetness times). (On the main grapes and varieties both white and inks).

It explains in a simple and graphic way the process of the grape harvest and wine-making (the manufacturing process that have different types of wines), and the process of filling.

Teaches us how we have to read the label and the against label. As hit the purchase (to buy, where, when, as). And gives clues to know as it must open up and aerate the wine, and after this, such as keeping it open once.

You will also find out where and have to serve it, as we have to taste it, and finally, one of the things that I liked, the rules of pairing. That is to say that wines stick with that dish and why.

To that ever you would have imagined that a fish could be combined with a red, or that a meat cooking with a white? Then if. Cannot be taken a red wine with a fatty fish and fleshy type salmon, tuna or COD, although this must be young and League. And the white wine can be taken with white meat type chicken, rabbit and pork.

As Peel artichokes - artichokes

We are in Holy week and you know that it is time of artichokes, beans and peas so today will see as Peel and cut an artichoke (also called globe) so that you do not have any problem in the preparation of any recipe that takes this ingredient.

Before going into task is important at the time of purchase that we choose the artichokes with the leaves well firm and tight. The size is not the most important although obviously the larger the largest artichoke it will be his heart (the Centre of the artichoke) which is the richest with the stem. In addition to artichokes stuffed must choose large artichokes.

In the next picture you can see two types of artichokes, on the left with purple streaks in the huerta de Chiclana (brings them me a neighbor) and the right hand, slightly larger, is where you will find more easily in supermarkets. By the way, there are artichokes much larger than the of the photo that serve well for cooking.

Fill once we have the artichokes at home what we have to do before that nothing is preparing a large bowl (where fit peeled artichokes) and fill it with water (not out it much because then we get the artichokes). Cut a lemon in half and squeeze it in the bowl with water, when they are well squeezed also adds the two halves of lemon to the water. We do this to avoid that the artichokes are rusting and matching black.

Once we have our pileup with water and lemon ready we will Peel the artichokes. Look at the next photo.

What we have to do is the following:

The first thing we see is the artichoke learns with his tail and all the leaves without manipulating.Below we see an artichoke that we have started you with hands outside of the artichoke leaves. We will do this until that appear the most tender leaves (less green and more yellowish).Then with a knife Peel the corner (so do not throw that it is very rich, just peel it) and we look at the base of artichokes removing harsh areas between the tail and leaves.Finally cut a piece of the tip of the tail (which is usually dry and Brown) and cuts off the top of the leaves of a single court. You will have to remove between one third and half depending on the tips of the leaves that are green.Now put in the bowl with water and lemon so that will not rust and we moved on to the next artichoke. Repeat until you have all the lists artichokes.

At this time the artichokes are ready to cook but depending on the use you give perhaps you want to give them a few cuts as the next picture.

In the image we see several things:

The first thing we see is a simple cut in the base of the artichoke. If you want to do artichokes stuffed with and you want the base settles well you paste you a cut and ready. But you do not throw corner which is very rich and use it also in the recipe.We then see an artichoke that has cut in half lengthwise and then in half again. You can use this Court for stews with artichokes as artichokes with peas and broad beans or artichokes with meat.Then we see the artichoke cut in quarters and the last picture you can see an area that I have highlighted in red where the Lint of artichokes. If kitchens artichoke (in stew, boiled, etc) I have no qualms about leaving this lint, well stewed is not noticed at all. But If for example you use these rooms to make fried battered artichokes then perhaps better will you remove the lint with a spoon or knife.

When it comes to peel the artichokes (to remove the leaves with the hands) insurance which you will enter the doubts about how many remove will be... too many? ... they will be few? don't worry if at first you take away any less, the only thing is that to eat them, you will find that there are leaves that simply you can not eat and will not have no choice but to remove them from the mouth (sure that ever happened). Because if it happens you that already know that the next time you have to remove some leaves. By the way, there are who do not precisely like the artichokes for this inconvenience, but if the you pelas well and leave the claritas (as in the photos) will be tender tender and you will not have any hits

I think that that is enough to get us into flour with artichoke recipes, I believed that I it would not time to publish a recipe until after Easter and promised a new recipe of torrijas this Good Friday but in the end here have a very popular for these dates recipe - > artichokes with peas and broad beans

Preparing artichokes (looks like clean the artichokes) by removing the most green leaves, cutting the tips and separating the corner. Put the artichokes and the juice in water with lemon so that they do not rust.In a pan (where all the stew will do) put the well fine chopped onions with all the oil and a spoon small salt. Let that pochando be (softening the onion) over medium heat.Peel the garlic, cut into slices and add them to the onion. Continuous over medium heat.When the onion is well poached and start taking color add the breadcrumbs and stir for one minute. Then add the wine and let evaporate the alcohol part for a couple of minutes.Then Add the peas and beans and the rabitos of the artichokes. Stir for a minute and then place the artichokes from the rest of the vegetables and cover with the stock that can be hot or at room temperature.If the stock does not salt add a teaspoon of salt, but if the stock is already seasoned simply leaves that you take temperature and then test whether it is necessary to add a pinch more than salt. Left to the fire about 45-55 minutes until beans are soft (which will be the latest in cooking).They are made while the artichokes occasionally menea casserole catching it by the handles. No goals too the spoon to remove because they will dump the artichokes.When the vegetables are tender and you have the ready dish. Out of the kitchen and eat!

To eat:


This recipe very well hold the freeze, but if you decide to add an egg to make set in peas I advise that you remove the part that you are going to freeze before adding the egg.


By the way if you don't have fresh peas and beans you can use frozen, the recipe works just as well although you have to bear in mind that you must use the amounts corresponding to the peas and broad beans desgranadas.


If you do not have Manzanilla wine uses the white wine that you usually use for cooking. The fine wine him also going very well to this recipe.


If you do not have hot chicken stock water and add a pill of concentrated chicken broth but keep in mind that this stock is usually something salty and it is normal that you don't have to add more salt to the recipe.


If when the vegetables are tender is too much broth in the Pan you can choose to up the heat to get a thicker sauce but eye, as it is not appropriate to remove much vegetables you run the risk of that grip you a little vegetable to the bottom of the Pan so you do so with caution.


This recipe looks great with a bit of ham in pieces but already could not use as a recipe for lent. Also comes it in handy an egg hard bitten or curdling an egg on peas and beans.


I hope that you like the recipe and enjoy at the table with this dish. Soon we will have more recipes. A greeting from chefs and cooks.

As cooking asparagus Green

A few weeks ago I promised that we would see such as preparing and cooking asparagus to be able to use them in our recipes, as for example in our shrimp and asparagus risotto. Well then are going to the mess!


1º) The first thing is to prepare the asparagus and so that they understand everything more clear I have prepared this picture in which you will see the steps clearly.


2Nd) as you've set what we have to do is clean the asparagus good for access to the soft of the same parts. To do this first thing is cut the end most hard of the asparagus and dispose of it or reserve it for use in a vegetable broth.


3º) Then with a very sharp knife or potato peeler we will removing the skin of the asparagus until you see the White Center (and soft). This skin that remove the can throw or take to the vegetable stock.


(4) The asparagus is ready for cooking, but you can cut it into several pieces to your own. The photo shows a cut which separates the head of asparagus (BUD) of the body (the stem), but if the stem is very long you can cut it into several pieces. Both the yolk (the tip of the asparagus) as the body are used for cooking as well that neither occurs you pull any of the two parties


(5) When it comes to cooking asparagus, prepared once, you can Saute them directly, add them to a stew or cook them and add them to a rice or another recipe. I'll not give time cooking because it will depending on the fine than the asparagus and the degree of hardness that you want to keep the cooking time vary a lot (from a pair me up to 15 minutes).


Do you think? By the way, a very important thing is that the asparagus with green asparagus should not be confused. The asparagus are wild (not cultivated) and often have a very thin thickness and a more delicate texture that makes it unnecessary to prepare them as we have seen in the previous steps. If you have asparagus with a simple sautéed may be consumed directly or even raw.

Cooking without fumes

Cooking without fumes. Little more than a month ago our friend Falsarius published "Kitchen without smoke" a new book as imposter like everyone else. And it is that although this book does not appear in front the phrase "kitchen for impostors" no one could deny that it follows to the letter the principles governing the cuisine of Falsarius, i.e. easy to make recipes prepared at a time and give a great result.

Those who already know the kitchen of Falsarius you know that, in addition to the recipes, best of all is the text that accompanies by way of introduction, every one of their recipes. Reading it you you find out why some cockles surname "López" or as a Galician scallops become a "zamburininjas" to get you out of trouble. We are going that I guarantee that it is will you escape more than a laugh while preparing dinner or lunch.

So you know if you want to have a book of cooking different from where the pleasure of cooking joins the fun read recipes, exploits that the holidays come and to ask the Kings. If you've been good maybe bring you it and if you do not give your that same is priced anti-crisis

Fillings for patés

Fillings for patés. Finally public these fillings for patés I have pending for so long. And that already two years ago that I published how to prepare one at home their own step by step patés and since then I am promising that I will publish some fillings.


Well since you have here, I give you five suggestions but it sure that these will occur many more fillings. You will see that not put numbers next to each recipe as they varied depending on whether produces patés small or large. I recommend that you preparéis small patés (which they eat in one bite), as are most beautiful and most enjoyed in the mouth.


By the way, this is the last recipe of the year and I would devote to a follower of the blog very close my land, to María Martín of San Fernando. A greeting and to the kitchen!

Flamenquines bread mold

Flamenquines bread mold. A few months ago I was fortunate to go to Barcelona to attend an event organized by Bimbo and signature. There we met 10 bloggers to prepare 10 recipes that will be published in 20 million packages of pan Bimbo Buenísimo.


I did a few flamenquines which are prepared in 5 minutes and I promise you that there are very rich. The truth is that all the recipes that led other bloggers were delicious and I recommend to all that you go through the microsite was created about the event and that you will find recipes (recetasbuenisimas.com). In addition you can also see this same recipe of the flamenquines video by clicking here.


By the way, if you like the look with the flamenquines of the photo are the same that I prepared in Barcelona and they were photographed by Alfonso de estupendísimo blog great recipes that has had the detail of spend a lot of photos of the event and assign it to post on the blog. Hope you like it!


Ingredients to make (for 2 persons):

4 slices of bread Bimbo Buenísimo without corteza4 slices of cooked ham (of the rectangular) 4 slices of cheese type tranchettes (I used Cheddar cheese) 1 sunflower for freírSal ralladoAceite huevoPan

Recipe to make (for two people):

See heating oil for frying.Grab a slice of bread and crush with a rolling pin so that it is either thin. Do this with all the slices of bread.Place a slice of ham and another of cheeseon each slice of bread.Wraps the shaping of a flamenquín (look at the picture).Beat the eggs and add a pinch of salt. If you want you can also add a bit of black pepper.Passes the flamenquines egg mixture and then the bread crumbs. Be sure to stay well covered with breadcrumbs, particularly the ends.Gets into hot oil and FRY for a couple of minutes until that are well doraditos.Then drain the excess oil leaving the flamenquines on kitchen absorbent paper. Out of the kitchen and eat!

To eat:


If you only have bread with bark will be best that he cuts the bark as this recipe looks much better with bread without crust.


You can prepare flamenquines with any other filling, such as ham and manchego cheese cream or also with cheese Roquefort cheese and anchovy. To your liking, only thing that you should have in mind is that what put padding should be well fine to not break the bread to form the flamenquín.


One thing that you have in mind is that If you do the flamenquines and not fríes them immediately the bread begin to esponjar and will not be fine to marring our flamenquín. A neat trick to ensure that this does not happen is once the flamenquín Wrap with transparent film role so that it retains the form. In this way we can prepare the flamenquines in the morning and lunchtime quitámos role and will be perfect for frying
