Do you live to eat or eat to live? I’ve been on both sides of the saying and I now believe that what we eat defines how we live. I’ve been following Jamie Oliver’s Food Revolution and it’s been an eye opener for how little we know about the food we eat. And it’s even more embarrassing for how little we care to know about our food. I’m guilty of this and I know a lot more people who’re on the same boat with me.
Here’s a little push to your wake up call.
I’ve had about 2 lbs of grapes sitting in the fridge for over two weeks and unfortunately, they’ve started to over ripen. While my usual routine is to throw them out, I decided to bake them today instead. I found the recipe here particularly useful – Baked Grapes . While the recipe suggests that the baked grapes be eaten with yogurt, I over salted mine to make it a standalone dish.
Here are the grapes prior to the bake process.
And here they are again after being baked for 15 minutes at 450F. Besides the change in color, they’ve also gotten a lot more crunchy and salty – just the way I like it.
