The pickles or fermented pickles are vegetables detoxifying effect and high nutritional value (the ferments well prepared containing folate and high in vitamin C).

Eat a teaspoon of pickles before and after the main course at every meal aids digestion, helps prevent gas (provided it is adequate chewing) and prepare for the operation of the gall bladder to digest the fats because they stimulate the secretion of bile. It is also beneficial in case of disease liver.

The pressed vegetable pickles with sea salt and other fermented foods, especially the miso, shoyu, natto and tempeh nourish the digestive system and immune system providing good amounts of enzymes, lactic acid and enzymes to the body.

energy level, pickles promote concentration, they activate the body and lose sleep.

the preserves and pickles pickled vegetable products for a long time, and has the advantage that its nutritional characteristics are maintained. Most vegetables can be pickled, and is fun to experiment with the least "typical" such as broccoli or cauliflower.

Become your own pickles! And if you have time, then buy them facts. Either way, make a habit of taking small amounts regularly (emphasize: little, if no one gets too yang! Words, tense, rigid and contracted).

HOW TO PREPARE:

are very easy to prepare. We can do it in different ways:

1. sandwiched between two plates

2. pressed or macerating them in glass jars

3. with a special press for vegetables

- Brine Pickles

Boil 3 cups of water with a teaspoon of sea salt.

Meanwhile, chop vegetables finely and put pressure to the hub of the mortar with a strip of kombu seaweed 5mn previously soaked in a glass jar. Cover with water, cover and marinate in a cool place. You can eat at 5 days and ferment 15 days. The best known are sauerkraut, umeboshi and Taku.

- Sauerkraut (Sauerkraut):

Of German origin, the sauerkraut is finely shredded cabbage and crushed with sea salt. Its flavor comes from the fatty acid that is formed naturally during fermentation and in any case having added vinegar. It is sold in glass jars, vacuum packed or canned. In the latter case, having been pasteurized and lacks enzymes that pasteurization kills. Therefore, it is best to take unpasteurized sauerkraut. Preparation

step by step:
1 - Wash the cabbage and slice very thin half moons:

2 - Sprinkle a little salt in the bottom of a glass jar:

3 - Put a layer of cabbage and press for the hub of the mortar. Add a little sea salt over cabbage and press again another layer of cabbage in the hub of the mortar. Continue this process until you reach the top of the taro. Close it and leave it in a cool dark place for 10-15 days.

A good recipe with vitamin B12 GRILLED tempeh with sauerkraut.

- Umeboshi Plum

is an essential product in the macrobiotic diet should not be missing from the pantry. It is a sour plums has been pickled in sea salt with some leaves called "shiso" that give the red color they have (in the photo you can see the whole plums, umeboshi paste and shiso leaf).

The umeboshi is important as food and as a healing remedy if digestive problems, halitosis, poor appetite, indigestion, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, hangover ...

also has the ability to stop leaving the body fluids (mucus, excessive urination and menstruation, diarrhea ...). People with asthma can greatly benefit by following a macrobiotic diet and take regular umeboshi specific. Also alkalizing have a great power as protection against colds, flu and other common diseases that occur when there is a condition of the body too acidic. Umeboshi plums should buy good quality food shops and some are traded dye.

With

umeboshi can make sauces, pates or can be mixed with the vegetable broth, cream of cereal in the morning or tea Bancha. When added as a condiment is best not to use salt as well as in themselves are already pretty salty.

- Shiso Leaves:

are the leaves that come along with umeboshi plums but also sold separately. The shiso is rich in iron and helps in cases of anemia. As is very salty pickled shiso can be washed or soaked before use.

- Takuan:

a pickle very typical of macrobiotics is the takuan or pickled daikon. Japanese restaurants often serve as the filling of maki, but here it has to be careful as this kind of takuan (bright yellow) contains preservatives and dyes. The natural takuan is light brown. Because of its contraction properties (yang) is used for weak intestines and stomach distended (yin). Two half-inch slices enough as it is a very salty food, if we take over we could create cravings for sweets.

- Pickles in vinegar:

such as pickles, capers or pickled onions with salt. Personally I like to use as a condiment for tofunesas, but in small quantities and that vinegar is demineralized.

- Pressed Salad:

belongs to quick pickles. Here you do not need any kind of tool since it involves spraying a few drops of umeboshi vinegar greens (kale, arugula, watercress, radish leaves or mustard, lettuce ...) and squeezing them with your hands pressing it a few seconds. You can replace the ume-su by sea salt.

- Pickles in shoyu or miso:

Prepare a mixture of 25% of shoyu or miso and 75% water and let the vegetables marinate for about 15 days. Cauliflower is special in this preparation.
- Pickled ginger:

eating a piece from sushi and sushi is removed from the mouth the taste of different toppings or fillings. As in the above we must look not take sugar. It makes cutting very thin slices ginger and macerating at least an hour umeboshi vinegar (and optionally a bit of concentrated apple).

• All pickles are kept in the refrigerator.

Wedding Congratulations Card Wording

Primavera - Ludovico Einaudi-Belgium

even less than last year I discovered this wonderful pianist and composer ... and his group of musicians that accompany it. And who was to blame for this meeting? My cousin ... Of course I was ensemismada when they arrive at Brussels Airport, we expect the following words: "Let's leave it at home, because we go ... I do not I have a surprise ... have time to change you ... come on! " My cousin had booked us a surprise to go see a concert ... I did not know that this discovery has reached unsuspected limits. For her it was a surprise, because they just knew this great composer ... music researcher.

Once there ... we left with their mouths open ... Ludovico did the same program he did in March 2010 at the Royal Albert Hall (the cd we have now) .. starts with a violin, which appear in the audience, and slowly get closer to hear The Planets ... and then, just sit Ludovico, not appearing until then surprises us with Labyrinth Lady, I assure you that moves within you, thousands and thousands of butterflies ... (it seems that they do not appear only when you fall in love ... but come on many other occasions) ... that's what I felt when I heard Ludovico. Nobody says anything, but there are smiles all around ... and he is not speaking, without addressing the public and from Lady Labyrinth, wraps us Nigthbook ... What a beautiful name, right? later and after many songs with thousands of sensations you experience. Spring comes .. ... and then begin again to feel that you are leaving the theater ... The music makes us feel a lot of things, and I promise to listen to Ludovico, the violins, the cello ... a *... tambourine makes you quiver.

trip was very intense, Belgium ... just a few days ... we got up early and we discovered the odd street Brussels, a small shop and tea ... one time or another go to Central Station to catch the train and visit Leuven which is twinned with the city where I live because they are the only places in the world with a cathedral which also receives the name of the canon (it is said, that was where the judges were going to sleep).

But Leuven is full of charm ... is a student city par excellence. There is even a "mini city" within it, which seems drawn from another era. The brick house, petite, with doors color and full of bikes around.

Very near this area that seems "walled" sales to a street that takes you directly to the Botanical Garden ... that is simply wonderful. There you can take a book and stay idle hours reading. It was one of the things I liked about the city. Churches are also the names of people who died in both world wars ... and one shudders to think what a city living ... everything and expect to keep your stones may no longer be ... more than memories ... and learning for future generations. Because before the catastrophes of this world can not do nothing ... but to the wars and human destruction. Or even what we think we will do good, because we think protects us and what it does ultimately is destroyed.

But back to that walk through Leuven, at least to me ... what I wanted was to return to study a career ... plus, this time more directly with the letters . Take a bike, of which she saw parked and take me to and fro in the city. That day was pretty cold, so we took refuge in some other cafe ... And there, sitting ... take out your notebook and look at what accounts while serve you hot tea ... that makes you relive the inside.
If you keep walking and entering its streets .... you might be surprised to see in a church with a contemporary-dance ... somewhere between the classic and new trends. This did not keep more than the images that I took to heart, and I hope that neurons die ... than this !!... to travel back to Leuven and amaze me with every little encounter ...

And again Bruges after a few years without going ... walking through the streets of story ... and a player runs out of words every corner ... just walk and look around, and feel, which of course you're somewhere in the world of the most special.

My father, it's been many, many moons, played a football game there (not a footballer, not even particularly like football, but went and played). He lived in Germany but came to Bruges with friends. And save some wonderful memories. Somehow, walking and thinking ... my father, stood for years in this place? "Smelt the city smells like chocolate today? Do you sit a drink on the grass with the swans until you can almost touch?

would fill this post with your photos, but I'll save that for another time ... so I can always go back to writing about it and just go without moving the chair.

Happy Spring Day, today I'm going to celebrate with a tea given to me by Emily Little of a tea shop is in Barcelona (Sans & Sans) and I liked lot. The name says it all ... "Inglés Rose" is a blend of Darjeeling and Ceylon, with rose petals, vanilla pieces and aroma of various fruits. And I'll take that book today to eat out and enjoy a beautiful spring day ... (I I carry the camera case).

I finished reading ... I'll tell you ...

* here .. just say, that surprised us both, we went into uncontrollable laughter. The one where you try to contain, but that somehow goes ... Anyway ... I intende look online, but is best seen live ... gum plays great ... but sometimes without a very explicit reason ... a laugh.

The photos are all from Belgium, May 2010.
