Is it OK to use Red Delicious Apples instead of Granny Smith to an Apple Crisp?
It is not just the tartness it is the consistency of the apples. Red Delicious are not as firm, higher water content, mushier when cooked so unless you want a mushy apple crisp then you should use the Granny Smith. The texture will be better. If you don't mind the texture then go ahead and use any apple, it'll taste fine, probably will be sweeter, and squishier.
My nephew loves mathematics. For a kid of 8 year old, he is way ahead of his friends in maths. But his mother (my sister) wants him to become a doctor and she is trying to get him interested in biology. What advice should I give her?
Well this method might work, lets try.Firstly figure out any particular food she likes the most and another which she completely detest.Lets assume she likes strawberry and hates apple.Now over a period of one week, every day bring her a dish made with apple.day 1) Apple pie - Insist her to eat with.day 2) Apple syrupday 3) Apple juiceday 4) Apple flavored vodka…..or anything of your choice. Let her resists, that she hates apple etc etc. Insist her till the point she completely repels apple.day 5) Now on the last day, out of the blue bring her a bowel of strawberry ice cream. You will see the happiness in her eyes, that you cared about her choice and taste.That’s it, the moment she eats a spoonful of the ice cream. explain.“ If you keep making your kid eat apples even though he clearly likes strawberries, he will never be happy and eventually hate apples altogether, Neither will he become a mathematician nor a doctor. So now she has to decide, she wants strawberry cake or apple jam on your next visit”.All the best.
What do Vegans eat for Thanksgiving Dinner?
I am trying to become a Vegan for health reasons. I have digestive problems and food allergies and since I quit eating meat I am feeling so much better and I read that my health would improve even more if I become a Vegan. I read somewhere that becoming a Vegan could reverse my Diabetes. My family is not to crazy about the idea of becoming Vegan. So, I was wondering what Vegans eat for Thanksgiving? I was wondering what on earth I could cook Vegan that would satisfy my family on Thanksgiving without caving in and buying a Turkey and making fattening Mac-n-Cheese?
My boyfriend wants to get shredded and refuses to eat my mother's apple pie. What should I do?
People in general have the right to reject whatever food for whatever reason. If your mother thinks that people turning down food because they either can’t eat it or have diets that they follow that don’t include specific foods is disrepectful, then she’s either overly sensitive and sees any rejection as a an assault on her as a person, or she’s a very controlling person who doesn’t believe anyone should be able to choose to do anything.It’s your boyfriend’s body, and he has decided that he will not for his own reasons not put anything in it that he thinks will derail his health and fitness goals. Your mother should respect that, and endeavor to have food that he can actually eat if she is going to insist he eat when he comes over. You’ll also have to try to explain to her that he isn’t being rude—refusing dessert is not rude, and she is not being fair to force someone else to eat something he doesn’t like or cannot eat.If she continues to act this way and makes your boyfriend uncomfortable, then you’ll have to make sure he doesn’t come over at mealtimes so that there is no pressure for him to eat anything since apparently food is an issue with her. You can only do so much-and if she refuses to change her mind, then you’ll have to try to spare your boyfriend having to interact with her when it comes to food/meal issues.
