Turning Over a Loose Leaf

It’s cold now, and the go-to caffeinated hot drink for college students is, of course, coffee. However, too many students ignore the bean-based beverage’s leafy rival: tea.

Some people have the perception that brewing loose-leaf tea is somehow complicated and expensive, requiring esoteric materials and herbal expertise. In fact, it’s remarkably easy and cheap. All you need to brew loose-leaf tea is hot water, a tea kettle or infuser and the tea itself.

Most people first encounter tea through the Lipton bag, a satanic symbol if there ever was one. There are a few good tea bags out there; Lipton does not make any of them. The problem with tea bags is that they’re filled with broken tea leaves, and when tea leaves break, they lose most of their essential oils and aromas. When steeped, broken tea leaves release more tannins, a type of molecule that tastes bitter. Because of this, bagged teas often misrepresent the flavor of full teas, and only with loose-leaf tea can you brew full tea leaves. In fact, bagged tea is usually made from the dust and fannings from tea leaves. In other words: the garbage. If you’re drinking Lipton, you’re literally drinking garbage juice.

How to Make Gingerbread Man Cookies for the Holidays

With the holidays approaching we can't help but get excited about baking fun treats for our family and friends. Have your family members help you out in the kitchen as this will be a fun project for the kids as well. These cookies aren't crispy like traditional gingerbread cookies. They hold up well but they are soft. Well? Make these fun treats for the upcoming holidays and add better meaning to any dainty celebration!

Quick Notes: Whatever you do, don't over bake these guys - they will dry right out. If anything under bake them just a shade (they will continue to bake for another couple of minutes once you pull them from the oven). Big cookies take longer to cook than tiny ones, keep that in mind as well.

Even though the dawn of this year's Halloween celebration have already come to pass and we ought to prepare for the upcoming yuletide season, this should not immediately signal us to stop supporting any halloween-related penchants and hangovers most especially when it comes to the food we all love cook and serve!

With that being said, before you think of anything else, "No" we are not suggesting that you spend the whole year celebrating halloween and 'No' we are not suggesting that you eat halloween treats whole year round as well; that would be a completely different story.

Gluten Free Quinoa Cornbread Muffins with Black Beans, Arugula and Parmesan

Lately, visions of plump juicy black beans tossed into the mix is just something that's hard to let pass by, most especially if it's making all the rave in almost every baking sites there is.

Thinking about these perky fiber-rich fellows dotting the muffin tops doesn't leave little to the imagination. We all have to act out these kinds of fantasies. Think about all those mouthwatering goodness dipping below the surface and some dancing on top. How can we ever say "No" to that? Baked quinoas taste so good it's like discovering a couple of long lost family members with a ready and steady gut for all things baked in sheer mouthwatering pleasure.
