The idea for the Bump & Grind came to me when using and thinking about the mechanism of the mortar and pestle. A mortal and pestle is such a great tool and its so under utilized in the home kitchen. My unique name, the Bump & Grind, is a tad cheeky but mortar and pestle can be a hard one to remember if youre not working in the food world or not cooking all the time, and quite simply, it bumps and grinds ingredients. For example, it grinds spices, bumps garlic and bruises the flavours of herbs. My Bump & Grind mortal and pestle, made from vitrified porcelain, is very durable and long lasting and really quite different from a traditional circular version. For starters, Ive changed the shape, it almost replicates the shape of a bathtub and the purpose of this is for the spices, seeds, herbs and other ingredients to have places to go. The bath-like vessel allows the ingredients to fall back into place after youve been knocking them around- Curtis StoneTo freshly grind spices, smash olives for a tapenade, mash avocado for a guacamole, squash garlic and believe it or not, you can whip up a fantastic pesto with the Bump & Grind. The handle with finger grooves allows you to really grind away at the ingredient and the handy spout is perfect for pouring marinades and dips. Features: Features a spout for pouring wet marinades and dips Elegant design Unique boat shape and handle makes crushing fresh herbs and spices easy and fast Sturdy handle allows control and stability when in use

My husband and I raised our glasses and said yes to adventure, moving ourselves and our two very young children to the Mexican jungle. After a year there, I became deathly ill, so we returned to our family farm and cattle ranch outside of Nashville, Tennessee, where I embarked on my greatest quest. I went from being a clueless kitchen woman, having lived on only processed foods, to becoming a REAL FOOD master cook. I then began healing my body, shifting our cattle ranch to grass fed and creating an organic bio-dynamic produce company in the process. What started out as a Mee thing became a We thing, as I launched community kitchens throughout the city of Nashville and now Malibu, inspiring people to return to a healthy farm-table lifestyle. This book is the story of my journey, the food facts I came to understand, and lots of healthy, healing recipes to share. An Introduction Every day I seem to learn more and more about food, cooking, and healing. When I first embarked on this grand cooking adventure, I thought it was only to heal my own body. to get well enough to live pain free and to be able to eat whatever I wanted. I had no idea that I would not only learn to heal my intestines but also unveil the great secret to healing and preventing disease. This secret is that our intestines and their wellness are the key to balancing our immune systems. Therefore, everyone would do well to embark on a REAL FOOD DIET that strengthens the digestive tract, balances healthy bacteria versus unhealthy bacteria, and produces healthy, whole, and long shadoobies daily. As I began to share with the world what I'd learned, the e-mails began to pour in from all over the country via my website, www. meetracy.com. I found myself digging for answers for folks who were suffering from autoimmune diseases and cancer. I knew that if food could heal a hole in my intestines, then for certain it could help others get well from an array of different illnesses. What I found were tons of stor

Chicken Fried Backstrap is certainly one of the best ways to cook venison backstrap, or venison steaks for that matter, but do you know how many other amazing methods there are for cooking venison steaks, backstraps, and tenders? The possibilities are endless! This cookbook has 50 ideas for you to try. While this cookbook contains plenty of healthy options for preparing your wild game, it also includes a traditional recipe for Chicken Fried Backstrap. We fry everything in the South, but not everyone is familiar with this practice. I once had a conversation with a colleague from Canada. I told him about my recipe for Chicken Fried Backstrap. After a long pause he responded, "I didn't know chickens had backstraps." For that reason, I've also included my recipe for Chicken Fried Backstrap in this cookbook. Most of these recipes can be made using steaks, backstrap, or tenders, but they're categorized by the best fit. For our purposes, venison is any meat that comes from the deer family including whitetail deer, elk, moose, mule deer, sika, etc. While they're not in the deer family, these recipes can also be used with blackbuck or pronghorn antelope. Inside this cookbook you will find step-by-step full-color thumbnail photos to show you exactly what each step should look like. You will also have the option to toggle back and forth between the photo version and a simple text version, depending on your preferences while you're cooking. The table of contents is composed of links to each recipe with easy to use "Return to Table of Contents" links at the end of each recipe.
