Are you sick of cabbage, broccoli, or brussels sprouts smell while you boil them?

Try to put some two-three days old bread crust in your boiling water.

Stuffed grape leaves are really delicious, yet one of the most tedious to prepare dishes in the Mediterranean cuisine. In Turkey, this dish is mostly prepared for gatherings.

Stuffed grape leaves can be prepared vegetarian or with ground meat. If you want to prepare it with ground meat, hold half of the oil.

I like learning new stuff about foods. During one of the check-ups, my doctor and I started talking about which foods we need to consume, which foods we need to avoid. He advised me to eat smaller fishes, since they have less toxins in their body.

Everybody knows the phrase "Big fish eats the small fish". Fish cannot discharge the toxins in their body. When they are feeding with other metabolisms, they absorb the toxins other metabolism has.

This is another easy and a healthy dish. Actually if you are vegetarian, this is one of the few options you will have during lunch meeting. You can substitute the ingredients with any vegetable you like. This propotions make 3 servings.

There some energy drinks in stores for almost a year. I can understand the necessity of energy drinks, even though I cannot approve using them for most of the times.

Energy drinks increase the metabolism with caffeine, sugar, and some other ingredients for a short time. It is not recommended to consume them after egzersize, or drink more than one over some time period.

I have not used date for baking bread and have not eaten any date bread earlier. This bread tastes like rasin breads I bought from farmers markets.

I like these cookies especially with tea after diner, or while I am studying. I found this receipe from my favorite cooking book "HomeBaking".

It is very popular in the Middle East.

This is easy, yet delicious dish. It is important to use bigger mushrooms, since you are going to stuff them.

It is a good appetizer.
