GMO Potatoes?

Salam & hi to all,

i would avoid corn and soy like a plague! i dare not risk my future health eating those confirmed GMO crops!

i just discovered (from reading) that 'they' now have made/planning to design/modify potatoes as GMO crop, please check this out
http://www.gmo-compass.org/eng/grocery_shopping/crops/23.genetically_modified_potato.html

thus, i grabbed few of the potatoes bought from my local supermarket, and classified them as 1st class and 2nd class (yellow and brown color respectively) and start my new project, saving the potatoes :D

after 2 weeks, they produced some ' green hair' hehe... some people called it 'eyes'

this is after 3 weeks or so. i became so excited to see the development. i went to a plant nursery shop to buy some poly bags (18 inches x 18 inches size) to plant all these potatoes!

i cut the potatoes like the above picture to get more out of one potatoes (if one potato has 2 eyes, i cut it half to get 2 'seeds'. 1 seed in one poly bag. so i am going to have approximately 35 bags of potatoes which....each bag i might be harvesting at least 5 -7 more potatoes, God willing!

i hope my potatoes are not from the GMO crop. i totally agree with the permaculture experts that we need to save original seeds as many as we could before the Mos**to company modifies and ruins all the genetic component of our plants :(

my potatoes would be harvested another 100 days (from today), i am so thrill to see the result..

Brain Fog and Virgin Coconut Oil

Salam & hi to all,

Please check this out, i am quite surprised to find out that virgin coconut oil (unrefined) can actually do more than wonders!

As an asian who lives in the a country where coconut is easily grown and bought, this is a good piece of information for me and for you too :)

Unfortunately, virgin coconut oil here is rather expensive! you can find them in pharmacies at MYR 75.00 per litre! the cheapest is MYR 60.00 per litre :(

my advise, make it yourself, its easy (since whole coconut is cheap here). pls check my previous post on how to produce unrefined, uncooked virgin coconut oil at home.

Happy viewing :)

How To Make Virgin Coconut Oil At Home

Salam & hi to all,

I would like to wish all muslims around the world "Ramadan Mubarak"!! :)

Do you know that Virgin Coconut Oil has been nominated as the best oil in the world?
How to make it? its easy!

3 kg of coconut cream (you can make it yourself, just type how to get coconut milk in Youtube)

pour them all in a container

close the container with its lid

leave it for 2-3 hours, the pure cream floats

IMPORTANT!
 after you see the cream floated, put the container in the fridge to solidify the pure cream.
 once it is hardened (solidified) take it out from the fridge.
Note: coconut cream solidifies at 22-24 (an below) deg.C

next step is to throw the water.
poke with a fork or anything, make few holes

like this

pour out the water ( leaving the solid pure cream coconut in the container)

this is how it will look like

close the container and leave it for 24-36 hours

you will see the virgin coconut oil emerges, the protein and water

scoop out the oil

u need a filter funnel

put in some cotton

like this

2 pieces of kitchen tissues or cheese cloth if you have

arrange it like shown in the picture

filter the oil

VOILA! pure, crystal clear virgin coconut oil

tips :
 if you love recycling, you can use any plastic bottle, cut it like in the picture to make it as a funnel.
the remainder of the bottle can be used like what i did (be harmony with the earth :)

 I hope you can make your own virgin coconut oil at home, good luck !

How To Make Pizza!

In The Name of Allah, The Giver of All..The Sustainer..

i made pizza tonight and i would like to share with you how i did it :)

there are 2 main items, the dough and the paste. the toppings is optional. 

the paste and toppings

anti clock wise , tomato, beef salami, cheese block, mushroom, a table spoon of oregano/mixed herbs, salt, black pepper powder, garlic powder (grind dried garlic), brown sugar, a small bowl of tomato puree, onion. the pineapple is also optional..

preparing the dough

put in 3/4 glass of water or a glass of water (about 250 ml) in a bowl and add one big table spoon of brown sugar

add 2 teaspoon of instant yeast or a packet of it (15-20 gm)

the yeast impact (i think the micro organism were multiplying)

add 3 cups of bread flour or multi purpose flour

add a teaspoon of salt

add approximately 1/3 cup of olive oil

mix them using a machine or you can use ur hand.

leave it for 30-40 minutes.

 meanwhile.....(while waiting for the dough to rise, prepare the paste)

separate the stem and the cap. the stem is to added in the paste and the cap is for the topping

cut into slices

dice all except the salami.  you can cut into any shape you like

pour some oil in a pot. use medium fire

put the diced onion first. fry until it becomes soft

put in the tomato, mushroom stem, mixed herbs, salt, brown sugar, pepper, garlic powder and stir for 5 mins

add half glass of water and let it shimmer for 10 mins

add the tomato puree

close the pot with its cover and leave it in small fire for 10 mins

turn off the stove and leave it to cool off..

after 30 minutes ........................

look at that! the size become almost double

i have to add somemore flour as my dough was very sticky. this is the beauty of bread making, you can always adjust the ingredients.

as i am making an individual pizza, i made some small portion and start to knead.

5 balls. leave it for 10-15 minutes. meanwhile you can start to heaten up the oven

look at that! after 10 mins

oil the pan

shape them to whatever size and shape you like, it doesnt need to be round :)

dont forget the grate the cheese..what pizza means without it

apply the paste and put the toppings ingredient.  sprinkle some grated cheese on top..

bake them in the oven for 15-20 minutes with medium fire

hmmmm....

its easy, delicious and nutritious!

good luck!
