and the kind that appeals to you in the moment. Taste sense is an interplay between salt, sweet, bitter, sour, spicy hot, and actual various flavors. Texture is also very important. Texture effects taste sense. Lipids, such as butter, oil or fat enhance flavor because they provide a very good transport medium that adheres to the tastebuds. Healthy blood pressure has to do with the ratio of sodium to potassium. If you like salt, eat potassium-rich foods, like green leafy vegs or bananas or potatoes. Studies of Asians who eat high salt diets without high blood pressure have shown this to be true. (Source: Health Science Institute) |

Really simple and delicious without fishAt least here you get flank steak as a relatively flat piece of meat, weighing perhaps about 1 kg or so. I remove the most obvious fat (but not quite all because it gives taste!). Then sprinkle generous amounts of ground coarse sea salt, black pepper and either fresh garlic or garlic powder (I found the latter quite OK). Let the spices "sit" on the steak at room temperature for some time (a few hours). Heat a pan with a few sprinkles of canola oil to max temperature. I won't comment on whether canola oil is "healthier" than olive oil, but I can assure you that the former "sprays" far less when heated, which is helpful considering the cleaning afterwards. Put the steak on the pan - turn it around after a minute or so on each side - and then again. When you think "it has had enough", put the steak into a closed packet of silver foil paper, and keep it there for at least 30 minutes. Open the packet and cut the meat into thin slices 90 degrees across the muscle fibres. It ought to be nicely rose-coloured inside - and it is delicious! A nice fresh salad goes very well with this meat. |
