Ingredients & Measurements

  • For mos t people, th e watchword at
  • the beginning o f this lesson should be
  • the guide:
  • “Brisk, yet not violent, exercise.”
  • It isn’ t necessary to engage i n a
  • “training” type exercise progra m to
  • increase the heart rate to a certain
  • count. However, th e daily routine
  • should includ e time for some outdoor
  • activity that will provid e moderate to
  • brisk exercise fo r at least 30 minutes.
  • More would b e better. Moderate to
  • brisk dail y exercise is better than
  • strenuous exercise once or twice a
  • week. Even 20 t o 30 minute s three
  • times a week will brin g a marked
  • improvement in health ove r that
  • experienced in a sedentary lifestyle.
  • We wer e designed to be active,— in
  • motion,— every day.
  • Do not rush into your exercise activity.
  • The heart rate should be increased
  • gradually,— to a comfortable rate. A
  • good rul e is to continue the activity
  • long enoug h to induce perspiration.
  • This will ensur e that th e blood is
  • coursing throug h all the capillaries,
  • not just tricklin g through a few of
  • them at a time , as may be the situa-
  • tion when one is sedentary.
  • Activities should be varied to call into
  • action al l the muscles of the body.
  • Remember to include strength
  • building, as well as aerobic, activities.
  • You should feel invigorate d and rested
  • after exercising , not wor n out and
  • sore. You may feel tire d for a little
  • while, but that shoul d pass. Muscle
  • soreness may be experienced for a day
  • or two afte r overdoing, but should not
  • last much longer than that
  • Remember:
  • Start an exercise program sensibly and gradually

Chef's Sourcing & Quality Tips:

  • Produce & Aromatics: Always use fresh whole aromatics and seasonal herbs rather than dehydrated powders when possible.
  • Cooking Oils: Utilize cold-pressed oils with appropriate smoke points such as extra virgin olive oil or avocado oil.
  • Salt & Seasoning: Season from a modest height above the pan to ensure an even, uniform crystalline dispersion.
