Our approach to eating delicious foods that are free of allergens includes the following:
Looking at the positive: When you find out that you are allergic or sensitive to certain foods, it can seem very depressing when you open the refrigerator. But when you start to look around at the grocery store, you start to notice that there are actually a lot of things you can still eat.
Heart of Cooking utilizes wonderful and sometimes unique ingredients that satisfy your need for tasty and yummy food. We view a limited diet as an opportunity to create, be inspired and make something delicious in place of what we would normally reach for in the kitchen cupboards.
Cooking techniques: You can have all the creativity in the world but without some basic step-by-step techniques in cooking, you won’t end up with what you intended to create. You also need to know where to buy some unusual ingredients if you want to eat gluten-free.
Even if you are a skilled cook, learning to cook allergen-free meals may take a little practice. We walk you through the know-how so that you can create delicious meals.
Planning and Recipes: Looking for new recipes to make each week takes time, discipline and planning. Even then you won’t really know if it’s a good recipe or not. It is yet another step to plan ahead for the whole week so that you don’t find yourself running to the store every other day for a missing ingredient.
We take the mystery out of making new recipes and make sure you will have delicious new meals each week. We also help you plan ahead so that you can do all the shopping for the week in one trip.
Creativity and inspiration: Sometimes you are missing a few ingredients a recipe calls for. Or your diet is unique so you will inevitably need to adjust something here or there when following a recipe. Heart of Cooking inspires you to go out on a limb once you have your basic techniques.
We believe that cooking is an art, even if you don’t consider yourself an artist. The fun thing about it is that many people could be given the same recipe, but each dish could turn out differently. Once you have your basic techniques down, your kitchen utensils and imagination are the only limits.
With all these key elements in place, you have the makings of a beautiful meal.
