The Mediterranean Sea borders continents such as Europe, Asia, and Africa. With so many different cultures it's no surprise that Mediterranean cuisine is one of the most diversified. Many people think Mediterranean cuisine is known primarily for its Italian, Spanish, coastal French and Greek dishes However,there is much more variety to this very unique cuisine. </span><p></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Mediterranean cuisine has a wide range of ingredients. This is what makes this cuisine very different from others. It uses simple ingredients in their purest form to give foods their natural flavour by using a myriad of ingredients and flavours. Hence, It is not uncommon to find many dishes prepared with fruits, vegetables, grains, beans, nuts and seeds.</span></p><p style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Two ingredients that are common to most regional Mediterranean cuisine are use of olive oil and garlic. There are 21 nations in the Mediterranean Sea on three different continents. Thus, the vast cultural and socio-economic range of this region is the reason for the great variety of this cuisine.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Overall, From the point of view of geography and culture, we can distinguish three main areas:</span></p><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">The western Mediterranean area goes from Portugal, a country overlooking the Atlantic but with a fully Mediterranean cuisine, to Italy. In these countries there are differences between the regions bordering the Mediterranean and the inland, which is more influenced by central European cuisine.</span></li></ul><p></p><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">The eastern Mediterranean area is a mixture of countries with different cultures. Slovenia, Greece and the area of the Middle East (Israel, Syria and Lebanon) are just some of them.</span></li></ul><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">The southern Mediterranean area includes countries like Egypt, Libya, Tunisia, Algeria and Morocco which have a common denominator in the religion of Islam.</span></li></ul><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjr5pcmtaI_gLXlwHG6uY8KIIquqZoGyEMwMjuFRxIa5a_pYiXmTl1U2ac5mFmLqefcWGD-kG1-mCgjNVOqf2ZEHlCUSYoCqFpfN_W8IY2XqaMHCyk68H5jS_vGOt9_82GgAmBqTCCm17NbGpL421SnkFKr2rCpBr6b5uvX2F96Y89rbk7LTcJegKAJAw/s1280/dish-gca5894ac8_1280.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="826" data-original-width="1280" height="207" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjr5pcmtaI_gLXlwHG6uY8KIIquqZoGyEMwMjuFRxIa5a_pYiXmTl1U2ac5mFmLqefcWGD-kG1-mCgjNVOqf2ZEHlCUSYoCqFpfN_W8IY2XqaMHCyk68H5jS_vGOt9_82GgAmBqTCCm17NbGpL421SnkFKr2rCpBr6b5uvX2F96Y89rbk7LTcJegKAJAw/s320/dish-gca5894ac8_1280.png" width="320" /></a></div></div><p></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b><i>The Staples features of the Mediterranean Diet Include:</i></b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">-Diligence about eating time and serving portions.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">-Use of Olive Oil in all cooking and dressings.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">-Use of whole grain, legumes and beans.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">-Eating vegetables and fruit daily.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">-Reducing the amount of saturated fats, especially the amount of red meat consumed.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">-Eating fish and nuts that are rich in fatty acids.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">-Serving red wine with meals rather than other alcoholic drinks.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">-Reducing the amount of salt in cooking and sugar, especially in buying packaged goods.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">-Visiting local farmers market more frequently.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">-Choosing an exercise regimen consistent with doctor's guidance.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">-Eating Better, Fresher, Smarter.</span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgMVWc_4sXSdn_8dGuVUFq3bR2x_rGgM0B_iZz6CZqD7RzCpaeZT_69k3OtwPC8NWZoQJwezj7ZrsZQRXVyw1y0fmkVxDsdM_BbO0kEOAGwfl1JGaWoLvEY5pNzuDULINUZeAGla905h6Dujo0tV-RGKDsSo4-t2HItWGduHvmFdfpmxck-qbHEvR3rbQ/s1920/sea-bream-g5ee10fbc9_1920.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1440" data-original-width="1920" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgMVWc_4sXSdn_8dGuVUFq3bR2x_rGgM0B_iZz6CZqD7RzCpaeZT_69k3OtwPC8NWZoQJwezj7ZrsZQRXVyw1y0fmkVxDsdM_BbO0kEOAGwfl1JGaWoLvEY5pNzuDULINUZeAGla905h6Dujo0tV-RGKDsSo4-t2HItWGduHvmFdfpmxck-qbHEvR3rbQ/s320/sea-bream-g5ee10fbc9_1920.jpg" width="320" /></span></a></div><p></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">The Mediterranean food that is well known is yogurt.

But don't worry, I won't get into the money things. What I will be talking about today is investing in yourself. Broadly the major areas you can invest in yourself are your advanced personal development, your quality of life,your ability to earn more, Your ability to gain knowledge. </span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">Today, I just want to take some time out to let you know that I have not always been the man that I am today! My journey of life had a lot of ups and downs. I mean I can recall many nights where there were sleepless nights, Times when I had no clue of what I was doing.</span></span></p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;"><br /></span><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">As time went by, I started researching about how to invest in my life in every area: mentally, spiritually, financially, and socially. Once I began to start investing in myself, things began to change. Because I started valuing myself and stopped putting a price tag on my happiness, peace, love, and joy, I began to see things and perceive them in very different ways right before my eyes. </span></span></p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;"><br /></span><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">When you invest in yourself you open yourself up to learning new things. You position yourself to be in the company of other people who know more than you, or who have been there and done that. So, if you have a Vision then invest in yourself, make the change in you and make yourself the better 'you'! So, now the question may arise, how to invest yourself?</span></span></p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;"><br /></span><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">The first thing I suggest is to develop a Reading habit. Studying is a good investment but if you want to make it a better investment don't just read the book. Try to learn something new each day because at the end of the year you would have learned 365 new things which can yield you in life in the long term. </span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgumOKjmZezdFAzYSYsSTw_4NkU-tT-fhQ99nTsfUFUI3lC81q8nXy3_6q3fXr_AuM3DMiQ8a7nAPMNXXqq0gYPqYRvJ3AkqzjzPdIiY6ABSkEs2eOPTIUQo-6zPdy27oesL0T46QYkWDvLmTAiF3LFl3leYH5gJdcV4GLMYLUhYAvSM5OIuDGNr1kV5A/s1920/books-gea34c0f27_1920.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1280" data-original-width="1920" height="213" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgumOKjmZezdFAzYSYsSTw_4NkU-tT-fhQ99nTsfUFUI3lC81q8nXy3_6q3fXr_AuM3DMiQ8a7nAPMNXXqq0gYPqYRvJ3AkqzjzPdIiY6ABSkEs2eOPTIUQo-6zPdy27oesL0T46QYkWDvLmTAiF3LFl3leYH5gJdcV4GLMYLUhYAvSM5OIuDGNr1kV5A/s320/books-gea34c0f27_1920.jpg" width="320" /></a></span></div><p></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">The second thing I suggest you to do is Travel and Expand Your Horizons. Here I don't mean getting on to a bus and going sightseeing, or buying a plane ticket to go abroad . It genuinely means to travel to a place outside your current surroundings or environment. For instance, if you reside in a little town or suburb, go visit the closest city in your area. Vice versa, if you live in the city, it's advisable to visit a small town or village If affordable and time permits, you should try and visit a different country every year. By doing so, one can better understand the lifestyle of others and in turn learn more about oneself.</span></span></p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;"><br /></span><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">The third thing I suggest you is have your bachelor degree/undergraduate degree by the early twenties. Work for 2 or 3 years. Do not look at money and work for a price tag. Just work in as many organizations in this time period and learn its structure, how it operates, its values and try to learn new things which may boost your learning for future. This will help you in preparing yourself for the future. I am saying this, because I have followed this same path after completing my undergraduate degree. After my BHM degree what I did was I taught various colleges and broadened my learning outcomes of undergraduate degree further. </span></span></p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;"><br /></span><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">After this, what I suggest you do is Leave the job that you are doing and target for the future. What I mean is now the time has come for you to look after the future and secure it. Time to build your future and find the meaning of life! This phase is important as it can shape your future and can take your life in a new way. Try to pursue post graduate studies or master degree, attend as many training programs and seminars for further learning because only learning is your best investment, it will definitely pay you one day. Naturally, learning is not cheap and some seminars and courses can be quite expensive. However, if you consider this expense to be an investment in yourself you will soon realize how worthwhile this is to help you to live life to the full. Also, I suggest you go for LinkedIn learning and Alison Certificate and Diploma courses. You will definitely be learning new knowledge to gain your interpersonal skills, communication skills, time management, multi-tasking, discipline which directly can help you in building the better version of yourself, ultimately the better you!!</span></span></p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><br />Moreover, you can also do these ideas to develop yourself</span></span><div><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEivr3X3ohkR7rMHlrmfcXKBVf5Hz89aV9ecwEB3pikqGXu8uqh4vn_khPPCVW24yCLCHpelDybAIy3xvzMPUtvyruQ_xXOc9I2suJBsYUMy_-pDq01Lg7UX2W643oG2ZG_AQgH7G7FJOvZLK3c9g8nTr2To6TqzJukpA2sO9B1MXbnWLXgkLvgAHT7IJQ/s1920/handsome-g1287aa208_1920.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1920" data-original-width="1280" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEivr3X3ohkR7rMHlrmfcXKBVf5Hz89aV9ecwEB3pikqGXu8uqh4vn_khPPCVW24yCLCHpelDybAIy3xvzMPUtvyruQ_xXOc9I2suJBsYUMy_-pDq01Lg7UX2W643oG2ZG_AQgH7G7FJOvZLK3c9g8nTr2To6TqzJukpA2sO9B1MXbnWLXgkLvgAHT7IJQ/s320/handsome-g1287aa208_1920.jpg" width="213" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div></span></span><div><div><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">listen to more audio books and attend more learning sessions. </span></li><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">go to the library and get inspired.</span></li><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">learn a new creative skill. </span></li><li><span><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">Learn a new working skill on new topic. </span></span></li><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">exercise more to improve my mental capabilities</span></li><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">train memory</span></li><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">L<span>earn a new language. </span></span></li><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">Listen to music</span></li><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">Practice culinary skills</span></li><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">Write a blog</span></li></ul></div></div><div><div><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">Investing in yourself means your have acknowledged there is more to learn.

A first impression is that it makes the employer the call you to the interview or not as it provides information of both job description and job specification for the human resource. So, you should always make it with care.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">The curriculum vitae always comes first and it is at most of the times the part which is the most important of all for the job because The employers need to bring down the number of applications from about over a thousand/hundred to a very few which are valid. This can be done only with the help of the curriculum vitae that is usually collected.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">Moreover, if you have a curriculum vitae, it does not mean that you will get a job, however, a good summary of writing your CV can provide you invitation to interview. It's upon to you from there on. The CV should be thought of as a promotional brochure in which you write your professional qualities and what you accomplished so far. A good summary of the facts illustrates the value that could make you be employed.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">Here are tips to write good curriculum vita for Hospitality Industry that will help you score a job:</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;"><b>Good presentation</b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">A resume that is printed neatly on A4 size paper and presented carefully will bring you success. The layout should always be well-structured and clean. Your curriculum vita should never be folded or crumpled. So, make sure you make use of an A4 sized envelope to post your application. Always ensure that the hotspot of your curriculum vita or the upper middle area of your first page, which will attract the attention of your prospective employer, has the most important information. You can use help from Google play store and use different CV application to prepare your CV layout in over 50 format in less 15 minutes. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;"><b>Keep it short</b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">A good resume will be concise, clear, and makes each point without waffling. You do not need pages after pages of information. Just make sure you keep things short and sweet rather than lengthy and uninteresting. A resume is a reassurance to your prospective employer that you are the perfect candidate for the job and will help you tick all the right boxes. There is a better chance of landing a job interview if you satisfy all the criteria that your employer has set. Also, employers would receive thousands of curriculum vitae every day. So, they would not have the time to go through everything cover to cover.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;"><b>Update your CV</b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">Keep your documents up to date by adding the latest information and deleting any information that is not relevant to the job. Use positive and assertive language.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">Moreover, Make sure that you add in any relevant experience and explain the skills that you have learned. Be really specific, if you think you have great customer service skills then say why. For example you could say something like 'working as a receptionist has enhanced my customer service skills because I had to welcome over 100 customers a day.'</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">You might think this is really obvious, but make sure that the spelling and grammar on your CV is correct. Check it several times and then get someone to check it again for you. If you can get someone from within the hospitality industry to proof read your CV then do so. They will be able to tell you exactly how to tailor your CV to your job role and help you to impress hospitality industry employers. You may also use grammarly for checking grammars and spelling. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">Also, Don't overdo your CV. Make sure that your CV is consistent and do not use any crazy fonts or designs. If you get rejections then ask people how you could improve your CV with experts. Listen to any advice carefully and keep making improvements.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">Similarly, When writing about your interests and hobbies make sure that you only include relevant information. Hospitality employers don't need to know about your social activities, tell them something useful. Ensure that every bullet point demonstrates your general strengths and passion for the industry. For example you could explain how you like to write regular blog updates about the best restaurants to visit or latest sales techniques.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">I suggest you to Include a strong competency statement at the beginning of your CV.

The PMS app enables your management staff to look into hotel operations at any time and from anywhere. A hotel PMS can accept bookings from various channels and OTAs at once.

Using guest-facing technology can help you keep your guests happier and increase your returns. Introduce avenues to encourage customer feedback, respond to online reviews thanking positive reviews, and resolve bad reviewers. It helps create a better experience for guests and leaves a good impression on future guests researching your hotel. For example, contactless technologies ensure guest safety in pandemic times, and check-in kiosks simplify the process for business travellers who stay for a short time and bring very little luggage. </span></li></ul><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>Helps you Upsell & Cross-Sell Better</b> – Digital hotel technology allows you to gather guest data through your app, website or software. Collecting relevant data, analysing it, and drawing insights from this data can help you understand how to upsell and cross-sell to improve hotel revenue. </span></li></ul><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>Hotel Data Analytics</b> – Analysing the booking data can help your hotel management make informed decisions about the services you offer. Booking trends help predict the rise or fall in demand, enabling hoteliers to offer promotional codes and discounts on different channels. Suppose you understand the best booking channels for your hotel. In that case, you could analyse the market and figure out the rates your competition offers their rooms.</span></li></ul><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>Secured Payments –</b> Technology can help you create a hassle-free payment experience for your guests. Facilitate online payments and money transfers to confirm bookings through secure online payment platforms. You can also share your usage and cancellation policies with the guests paying in advance by emailing them.</span></li></ul><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgzjkslaXBgUJI3-bhTczLestM53ROMeuOxeFzjx9mehLx26kX1EyeegrYoMa1xBE1nGJ-9itGfUzYIlqmGMn0yrIcDfD9BUVC116AAg6KmrPI3ukS0P_tiN6y6hGYU5pxY7seegdrRhAFzc5hxRf_HOdJ_ZQXB4u2UIdd7VHZ4LaTLAh1Atbrtu4K2sQ=s1618" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1080" data-original-width="1618" height="214" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgzjkslaXBgUJI3-bhTczLestM53ROMeuOxeFzjx9mehLx26kX1EyeegrYoMa1xBE1nGJ-9itGfUzYIlqmGMn0yrIcDfD9BUVC116AAg6KmrPI3ukS0P_tiN6y6hGYU5pxY7seegdrRhAFzc5hxRf_HOdJ_ZQXB4u2UIdd7VHZ4LaTLAh1Atbrtu4K2sQ=s320" width="320" /></a></div></div><p></p><p dir="ltr" id="docs-internal-guid-20e8f370-7fff-e165-4834-9cfebe45fc67" style="line-height: 1.295; margin-bottom: 8pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">The prime objective of running a hotel business is to increase revenue by <a href="https://www.cfone.com/2019/10/30/powerful-tips-boost-hotel-occupancy-and-customer-satisfaction/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">improving customer satisfaction. </a>Guests who experience comfort and care in your hotel are likely to visit again.

Liquid waste must be disposed of carefully as it is considered sewage and could easily contaminate food and other items. Empty indoor waste containers when full or at least daily. Have outdoor waste containers emptied when full or at least two times per week. Ensure all waste containers are well maintained, leak-proof, easily cleaned and have secure covers or lids. Cleaning water from waste containers must be considered sewage and disposed of accordingly.

The crispy golden outer layer and the wonderful taste are hard to resist, even with the thought of the negative nutritional value in the back of your mind. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">There are several reasons why someone would want to use this method of cooking. First and foremost, it seals the taste and tenderness of the food to help in maintaining its flavour and moisture. Also, you can cook food quickly.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Let's look at the most common advantages of deep frying when compared to other methods of cooking.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>1. Speed of Cooking</b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">You can cook much faster with deep frying when compared with other cooking methods because basic laws of thermodynamics state that heat transfer between a hot liquid and solid food occurs much quicker than it does from heated air to a solid food. The larger and more dense the food you are cooking, the more you will see this effect realized. Let's take a large, Thanksgiving turkey (the one that they show on television) for instance, To cook that in an oven, it would take eight hours. In a deep fryer, you can cut your cooking time down to an hour or less.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>2. Improved Taste of Food</b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Food that is cooked in a deep fryer always tastes better than food cooked in the oven. This is because the surrounding fats or oils do a better job of sealing in the flavour during deep fry cooking. The oils and fats often add a delicious flavour themselves to the food during the cooking process.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>3. More Tenderness of Food</b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>I </b>think this is the primary reason why people love to deep fry their foods. Foods that are overcooked in the oven tend to dry out, and eating food that is dry and overcooked is certainly an unpleasant experience, especially when you are looking forward to a tasty meal. With a deep fryer there is no worry of this occurring. If you happen to cook food in a deep fryer longer than necessary, it will still retain its moisture. You can be sure to have a tender meal when it is cooked in the deep fryer.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>4. Makes Great Appetizers and Desserts</b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Deep frying is ideal for making a variety of foods in a style that is most appealing. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Things to keep in mind while Deep Frying or using a Deep-Fryer;</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>1. Checking out the Temperature</b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Check the temperature of the oil before deep frying. If you are confused, drop a crumb or cube of bread into the oil/fat and notice how long it takes to brown (I have shown below how to understand temperature by this method). Similarly, you may use my simple rules of thumb too! If it starts dancing in the oil, food can be placed in the oil for frying or wet the tip of your finger and flick it at the oil. If the oil is hot enough, it will sizzle when the water hits the oil (Don't use much water, just a wet finger tip)</span></p><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">60 seconds : The oil is approximately 180 degrees Celsius/360 degrees Fahrenheit and is suitable for gentle frying.</span></li></ul><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">40 seconds : The oil is approximately 190 degrees Celsius/ 375 degrees Fahrenheit and moderately hot.</span></li></ul><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">20 seconds : The oil is about 195 degrees Celsius/385 degrees Fahrenheit and very hot.</span></li></ul><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">10 seconds : The oil is dangerously hot and needs to be cooled down.</span></li></ul><p></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">You may cool oil down by turning off the heat and frying several slices of bread.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>You may also like;</b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b><a href="https://www.easyhotelmanagement.com/2020/05/moist%20heat%20medium%20and%20dry%20heat%20medium%20of%20cooking.html" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Dry Heat Medium & Moist Heat Medium of Cooking - A Full Guide</a><br /></b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><a href="https://www.easyhotelmanagement.com/2021/09/air-frying-a-healthy-alternative-to-your-regular-cooking.html" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Air Frying - A Healthy Alternative To Your Regular Frying</a></span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjZdypPj5yI9_xdt2R6fc8mh7L1Y0J-Iz0HXGQORhfJCWe7xBlCi6zmzyF9kl8skKwBzyprKXVY7TPlU1AXg26fuJ7sfzvWEynYJa5xR_6TzRFrqpkfXndgdkS--rGflV0llTTzXDuAmlruFfDKsXB_0jCZyPAe2wVKzjLlJjyy8rgWYoRJroh5mhjO0w=s1920" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1280" data-original-width="1920" height="213" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjZdypPj5yI9_xdt2R6fc8mh7L1Y0J-Iz0HXGQORhfJCWe7xBlCi6zmzyF9kl8skKwBzyprKXVY7TPlU1AXg26fuJ7sfzvWEynYJa5xR_6TzRFrqpkfXndgdkS--rGflV0llTTzXDuAmlruFfDKsXB_0jCZyPAe2wVKzjLlJjyy8rgWYoRJroh5mhjO0w=s320" width="320" /></a></div><p></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>2. Cooking</b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Always cook in modest amounts while deep frying. Adding too many pieces of food at the same time will lower the temperature of the oil. Which means that the coating will not form a crispy crust, and the food will shed its juices and soak up fat. And also when you crowd the food in the frying it does not allow the hot oil to completely surround each piece. You need the hot oil to completely surround the food to set up the steam barrier that prevents the oil from penetrating your food items.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">when frying frozen food such as chips or fish fingers. Don't make the mistake of using very hot oil to counteract the cooling temperature of the frozen food; a fairly cool fat temperature (180 degrees Celsius/360 degrees Fahrenheit) is required to cook frozen food to make certain that the centre is thawed and cooked before the coating browns.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Also, Drain any cooked foods well, and put on kitchen paper to mop up any unwanted oil. Moreover, Store any food that is not to be served straight away in a warm oven with the door but be cautious as covering or enclosing the food will make it soggy.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>3. Cleaning the Oil</b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">After the fat has cooled, it should be filtered through muslin or filter paper to get rid of any food particles. The oil should be changed once it becomes dark, odorous or cloudy.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>4. Oil Temperature</b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">If the temperature is too high the coating will burn before the food is cooked.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">If the temperature of the oil is too low the food being cooked will absorb the oil and take on a greasy taste.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">If the recipe does not call for a specific temperature, 360 -375 degrees Fahrenheit is usually best for deep frying fish and slightly lower for meat. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">There are usually 2 ways of deep frying in cooking</span></p><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Deep frying the ingredients directly.</span></li><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Deep frying the ingredients with batter.</span></li></ul><p></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">The latter one is the most commonly used method in modern cookery. </span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEi3x2DZILDLjdTGa4U-3OkRQvCnVJiGoExXAqqyST1x-OBuXK_whOWYwlUIKueDUOx83QNkhBSmOMVBhTgmk9sbfQtXTehqg0Nv0O8BRkvPtXoJRHhbT94sm_gap2cbF_hdsCEw421jZse2t8cx5PoMhUUwR_pSqdOCxy4L-HCmQSAvpT1DEwCAsS_D3g=s4288" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2416" data-original-width="4288" height="180" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEi3x2DZILDLjdTGa4U-3OkRQvCnVJiGoExXAqqyST1x-OBuXK_whOWYwlUIKueDUOx83QNkhBSmOMVBhTgmk9sbfQtXTehqg0Nv0O8BRkvPtXoJRHhbT94sm_gap2cbF_hdsCEw421jZse2t8cx5PoMhUUwR_pSqdOCxy4L-HCmQSAvpT1DEwCAsS_D3g=s320" width="320" /></a></div><p></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">The sizes of the ingredient pieces should be uniform. Otherwise, some pieces will be overcooked, some will be undercooked, and even the colours will be different piece by piece. If you want more flavour Marinade the ingredients to enhance the taste and the aroma of your cooking.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Deep fry Twice on ingredients that are not easily fried. The first time using medium heat until 70, 80% cooked. Take them out, crank up the heat to high, then deep fry them again to achieve the desired results.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>5. Food must be dry before deep frying</b> </span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Coating it in flour or breadcrumbs can help in drying it out. When using a coating to dry the food, allow it to sit on a wire rack for 20-30 minutes to dry properly. Medium heat should be used to warm the oil. A desirable oil temperature for this cooking method is between 350 and 375 degrees Fahrenheit. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">When adding the food to the pan, use the space sparingly because too much food will make the temperature of the oil to drop causing the food to begin to absorb fat rather than cooking. Once the food is browned on the outside, it should be finished cooking. Remove it with a spoon that has holes in it and place it on a paper towel to soak up the oil. If the rest of the meal is not ready yet, fried foods can be kept warm in an oven at 200 degrees.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>6. Do not use a lid when frying, EVER</b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>7. Stay next to your fryer</b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Never leave it unattended. You must monitor that the temperature remains at 350 degrees at all times and - more importantly- you DO NOT want anyone to get hurt or burned with the very hot oil or fryer. When you place the meat into the hot oil the temperature will be reduced a bit. Increase your heat and return it to 350 degrees. This will take a few minutes.</span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjp7-KJ9h1piX5ehhRJfTVn_OJA-pbBeRqW5fz-g8KvPD_Z5QwSxApEknRGfUvawEyQj1dI0HT8CDVszF0TqFELAw3zGmnWI5oNRoIlktpdteFwT5Yx3hmNutGlWKS5UXaeMJ-vFSAw0W4QK-Eg0bQU5s5KRLeztuKXixqhZxnKcjo7WKumUkhMULWGEw=s6000" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4000" data-original-width="6000" height="213" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjp7-KJ9h1piX5ehhRJfTVn_OJA-pbBeRqW5fz-g8KvPD_Z5QwSxApEknRGfUvawEyQj1dI0HT8CDVszF0TqFELAw3zGmnWI5oNRoIlktpdteFwT5Yx3hmNutGlWKS5UXaeMJ-vFSAw0W4QK-Eg0bQU5s5KRLeztuKXixqhZxnKcjo7WKumUkhMULWGEw=s320" width="320" /></a></div><p></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>8.

However, Some Food are good, and others, not good at all.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">The real health concerns over what foods to consume is not going to be a big debate today, except to say that everything that we put in our mouth will either do us good, or not good. There are mainly two types of food Available;</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>Real Natural Foods</b> - They are Untouched or modified (straight off the tree/ in natural state)</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>Packaged Foods</b> - They are processed, packaged and modified Food items.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">In today's busy age more than 70% people diets consists of;</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">- Chips</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">- cookies</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">- rice crackers</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">- cup cakes</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">- donuts</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">- confectionary and chocolate bars</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">- candy and sweets</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">- pre made meals and instant noodles</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">-Frozen foods</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">- Fast Foods</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">- soft drinks / soda pops / carbonated beverages</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">- juices / fruit drinks / pre-squeezed fruit and vegetable juices</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">- beers / wines</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Now the question is - where is the real food in it? Where are the fruit and veggies? Is this your staple diet?</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Watch your body on how it react when eating packaged foods, and watch how your body acts after you eat natural foods. There is a big difference because;</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">There is an element that affects how fast we digest our foods through our bodies, called Glycemic Index (GI for short). The higher the Glycemic index, the faster our body digests and processes food in our body. If you have heard the term Low GI food, it is food that is slowly processed and gives a slow release of energy. On the other hand, a "High GI food" gives you an almost instant pick up of energy, processes fast, and then you "fall flat" and you are out of energy. Even some natural foods have a high Glycemic index. BUT, the majority of packaged foods have high GI.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">If you eat a packet of potato crisps, you may feel satisfied for a short while, and then you are probably empty and "unsatisfied" a short while later. That is because they usually lace the chips or snack with salts and flavours that make you want more.</span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEji1RF4Ff2YHPhqfhkxNe6KXOVUQkBC4o6KXK245EYLx8Gz6kJD9CnFnUOgQ9b-9UwV6z3yOsM5Tk3O4Oe-3B1e1A12CT2B9wudqf0E0dr2MrILc4AN5nYxQexa1Z8JiPl53bev67Nbje3iSQIk15F7RyocahTYmNgIPVv28NLpJ2rNfACYDhG8bleDSA=s3000" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1500" data-original-width="3000" height="160" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEji1RF4Ff2YHPhqfhkxNe6KXOVUQkBC4o6KXK245EYLx8Gz6kJD9CnFnUOgQ9b-9UwV6z3yOsM5Tk3O4Oe-3B1e1A12CT2B9wudqf0E0dr2MrILc4AN5nYxQexa1Z8JiPl53bev67Nbje3iSQIk15F7RyocahTYmNgIPVv28NLpJ2rNfACYDhG8bleDSA=s320" width="320" /></a></div><p></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Instead of snacking on packaged foods, choose a natural alternative. This could include nuts, dried fruit, grapes, fruit, and yoghurt. You will be satisfied, and you will feel better for it. You won't feel flat, and on the other hand you are doing your body good, not filling it with junk foods.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Packaged foods are mixed. Some are "healthy" , some are not. You have to be careful even if they are labelled healthy. So you may wonder Are they really healthy? Do they have chemical flavour enhancers such as MSG, preservatives, or pH balancers? Do they have swags of laboratory numbers on the ingredients list? Or really, really long words that only your doctor or chemist would understand? If so, then you should do some research, find out what they really stand for, and avoid foods that contain them. This can be a little difficult - especially if you have kids. It's that "No" word. Just make healthy alternative choices instead.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">For instance, Take an apple. - If your kids can't eat a whole apple, cut it up into smaller sizes, they are more likely to eat it. Make eating these things fun. You get excited about eating healthy, and your kids will follow.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">As you can see, there are major differences between packaged foods and natural foods. As a rule, if it comes in a packet, it has to be preserved. Natural foods have a shelf life, and go off. That is the natural order of life. If a packaged food can sit on the shelf and not go off, decay and decompose, then it is not food, and is probably doing you more harm than good.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>The following guidelines are here to help you make the most out of packaged foods</b>.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>1. Always read nutrition labels</b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Reading nutrition labels may be time-consuming but it is the only way you can check on all the ingredients lurking in your packaged foods. You may do nutrition label-reading if you have leisure time and just stick to the healthy brands later on.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">The ingredients which are notorious for being excessive in packaged foods are salt, sugar, fats and preservatives while the healthy ones which are either absent or deficient are fiber and nutrients. Also deserving your attention are the serving sizes and number of servings per pack.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>2. Keep in mind the following numbers of important ingredients when shopping</b></span></p><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">3 grams-the recommended fiber content per serving</span></li><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">13 grams-the maximum amount of fats per serving</span></li><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">30 grams-the maximum amount of sugar per serving</span></li><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">500 mg-the maximum amount of sodium per meal</span></li></ul><p></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Also, Be familiar with the terms used for added value.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b><u>Here is a sort of glossary on the commons indicators of nutritional value;</u></b></span></p><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Fortified, enriched/filled-This means the food is enriched with nutrients or externally nutrients is added to the food substance. This is how protein of any substance can be increased.</span></li></ul><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">single-serving-This means that the portion is already controlled for you, thus reducing your chances to overeat.</span></li></ul><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">whole-grain-This means grains which are simply mechanically ground and not chemically treated. Food is thus high in fiber and nutrients. It is healthier than refined grains. </span></li></ul><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">organic-This means the food is sourced from organically-grown plants and animals devoid of fertilizers, pesticides and hormones.</span></li></ul><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>3. Beware of the terms used for substances with health risks</b></span><p></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Just as there are terms which indicate nutrition, there are also terms which connote potential hazards to health.</span></p><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Hydrogenated, shortening-This refers to oils which have been treated with heat and chemicals in order to extend shelf life. Trans fats are inevitably formed, leading to cardiovascular and other health problems.</span></li></ul><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Refined and bleached-These terms are commonly used in conjunction with flour and oils. Whole wheat flour, for instance, is refined and bleached in order to come up with longer shelf-life breads which are whiter and softer but are stripped of much of its nutrients and fiber.</span></li></ul><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">strange-sounding names- The unknown trace substances printed on food labels are usually preservatives, artificial colors and flavors. The more a packaged food contains these chemicals, the less healthier it is.</span></li></ul><p></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>4. Consciously restrict the amount of packaged foods you eat</b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Schedule it. Perhaps you may schedule Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays for cooking with packaged foods. All the other days should be filled with fresh, nutritious foods.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>5. Limit it</b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Some nutritionists recommend consuming no more than 1 serving of packaged food per member of the family per day. Having a conscious mindset to control packaged food consumption is the only way you can really limit the consumption of fresh foods.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Most packaged food contains excessive amounts of salt and sugar, and a long list of preservatives, artificial flavours and colouring, which if consumed regularly in even moderate amounts, is ultimately detrimental to your overall health. Though you won't starve.. you just won't be nearly as healthy as you would if you had maintained a natural, healthy diet.</span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjUkPTzUUzvhiG9bGiO4kXEicXSwPp_ucJHLfsNnEBn7eQ957d_eSoth26L7eIAn95_vhkUNRyW3FxrRn6rManJFbCEGOipbVZqjTw3kzRN7zm9_fPySCd_v-4lh0TuJ8Q4u_rxCqjQrAXhSYFIweNCnRtmBAx-MBmKWLXbVzS3ESEHxPI4J8BFI39sYw=s1280" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1280" data-original-width="1280" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjUkPTzUUzvhiG9bGiO4kXEicXSwPp_ucJHLfsNnEBn7eQ957d_eSoth26L7eIAn95_vhkUNRyW3FxrRn6rManJFbCEGOipbVZqjTw3kzRN7zm9_fPySCd_v-4lh0TuJ8Q4u_rxCqjQrAXhSYFIweNCnRtmBAx-MBmKWLXbVzS3ESEHxPI4J8BFI39sYw=s320" width="320" /></a></div><p></p><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>Salt</b></span></li></ul><p></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">For instance, it is a well-established fact among most nutritionists that the average adult shouldn't consume more than 1 teaspoon of salt per day... total. Take a can of soup, for instance. The 'Nutrition Facts' label lists "Sodium" (for our purposes here, equivalent to salt) as 25%. This means if you were to consume 1 cup of the prepared soup, you will have used up 25% of your salt quota for the whole day with the soup alone.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">If you have a small bag of potato chips, and/or many other packaged foods and snacks, you're likely well past your daily quota of salt before you even get to dinner time.. not to mention the salt you might add to your dinner meal (especially if it's packaged food). All this over-consumption of salt eventually leads to health problems, such as heart disease. You could avoid these problems if you kept your salt intake to below the recommended levels.</span></p><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>Sugar</b></span></li></ul><p></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Although it makes packaged food and soft drinks tasty, it comes at a high cost, health-wise. Refined sugar has absolutely no nutritional value whatsoever. It's loaded with empty calories. Not only that, if you continue to consume sugary products, you send your metabolism into high alert. While each of us has a different metabolic rate (the conversion of food nutrients into glucose, or blood sugar - your body's energy source), in general.. your body can't deal with continuously elevated amounts of refined sugar without being forced to create more insulin, to control your metabolic rate.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Metabolism is intended to be a slow process, to allow energy to be delivered at a regular rate, so that you always have some energy in reserve. Natural foods such as fruits, vegetables, beans and grains have built-in natural sugars which take much longer to break down than refined sugar.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b><i>With refined sugar you get a sugar fix, which gives you a quick burst of energy, followed by an even faster sugar withdrawal. If you repeat this scenario over and over again, day after day, your body will no longer be able to produce enough insulin. You're well down the road to diabetes.</i></b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><br /></span></p><p><br /></p>Deepanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16232576430932848586noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1336140491243447835.post-7035498585644810022021-12-07T15:50:00.004+05:452021-12-07T15:50:39.448+05:45Food Allergy- A Short Introduction<p><b><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Food Allergy</span></b></p><p><b></b></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><b><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEj4g0UUdK78Gt1a181ljM-RejBJzqwyhrqWj9YSIncOlSAD7I5Jud_ufYH1uo4qrWcBigMhSDLVhSg7HmTuPjxR0FdaIwiAgYHOsRcHKasV2-yTKZJ0TE8X_EPr4PQb73NGlL3sfzJSJLHaeO7nntFJcovw3TCM22q7-6Q6zOIqPeSW1rWc3gHoxYNo1A=s1280" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1280" data-original-width="1280" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEj4g0UUdK78Gt1a181ljM-RejBJzqwyhrqWj9YSIncOlSAD7I5Jud_ufYH1uo4qrWcBigMhSDLVhSg7HmTuPjxR0FdaIwiAgYHOsRcHKasV2-yTKZJ0TE8X_EPr4PQb73NGlL3sfzJSJLHaeO7nntFJcovw3TCM22q7-6Q6zOIqPeSW1rWc3gHoxYNo1A=s320" width="320" /></a></b></div><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">An allergy can be defined as an intolerance to a particular substance when touched, inhaled, injected or ingested. A food allergy is not the same as food poisoning. Foods that are consumed by most of us can cause severe allergic reactions in some people who are allergic to that food. Foods that cause allergic reactions tend to be high in protein. </span><p></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">It occurs when the body's immune system overreacts to normally harmless substances. By allergy the immune system reacts against a substance that it is not supposed to react to. The immune system gets confused and the immune system incorrectly strikes/attack a food protein.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Simple headaches are usually symptoms of an allergic reaction to chocolates and wheat. Migraines, on the other hand, are typically caused by an allergy to cheese, nuts, citrus fruits, tomatoes, milk, eggs, and MSG(Monosodium glutamate). (Monosodium glutamate, sodium salt of glutamic acid, is a chemical used for seasonings in a lot of foods but only those which have excessive amounts can cause allergic reaction). </span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">The symptoms of Food allergy can be itchy skin, hives, rashes, constipation, Trouble sleeping, Heartburn, diarrhoea, and swelling around the mouth and throat. These types of symptoms can start rather quickly after eating a certain type of food. Some people may even experience nasal symptoms that include runny nose or congestion However, These may not be related to the food.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">The most common allergenic foods for children are dairy products, wheat, corn, sugar, soy, nuts, peanuts, nuts and eggs. Similarly, Many adults are also affected by oats, yeast, chocolate, seafood, beef and citrus.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Food allergies not only harm our bodies and our minds, they also prevent us from deriving the full nutritional benefits from the healthful foods we do eat which can lead to nutrient deficiencies and malnutrition. Also, Food allergies can restrict your ability to eat the foods you need. A diverse diet offers maximum assurance that you are getting the nutrients you need.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Any type of food can trigger an Food allergy. Yet, the "Big 8" account for more than 90% of all cases- milk, eggs, peanuts, tree nuts, fish, shellfish, soy, and wheat. </span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjsKDn-i4zXLxCxXApQUgS8WhPOY3QNOvk-LrbEx1w1UZQpzI-kB-ycv-HV1zdionA8tbaTsAvMJaUQA0tz1ftysTsKFLjGpU-dH7e1N7-C5vCdTZAN1j1fXIKmT8OMYy8qrnl4F32GGrJSQUoC9s2LkRy8mitet51RTRt-VtgHXZPtvqoeTMSz3AisPw=s2048" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1365" data-original-width="2048" height="213" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjsKDn-i4zXLxCxXApQUgS8WhPOY3QNOvk-LrbEx1w1UZQpzI-kB-ycv-HV1zdionA8tbaTsAvMJaUQA0tz1ftysTsKFLjGpU-dH7e1N7-C5vCdTZAN1j1fXIKmT8OMYy8qrnl4F32GGrJSQUoC9s2LkRy8mitet51RTRt-VtgHXZPtvqoeTMSz3AisPw=s320" width="320" /></a></div><p></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>Types of Food Allergies</b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">If you are allergic to a food, you can experience either an immediate or a delayed reaction to food. The immediate reaction pattern is referred to as Type l food allergy. Immediately or within a short time after eating the food, you show clear and often dramatic symptoms. If you are allergic to fungus, you might develop abdominal cramps within an hour of eating a ragout containing mushrooms. A child with a type 1 reaction to kiwi fruit might experience severe itching in the mouth or vomiting within 15 minutes of eating a kiwi fruit.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">The most dangerous Type l reaction is called anaphylaxis - a severe reaction that can be fatal within minutes. If you or your child experiences light-headacheness, swollen tongue or throat, difficulty breathing, fainting or facial swelling immediately after eating food, seek immediate emergency care.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Type l food allergies are easy to diagnose. They respond to allergy skin tests, and show up on blood tests because they result in an excess of IgE antibodies. For many doctors, this is the only kind of real food allergy.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Type ll food allergy does not involve IgE antibodies. Instead, IgA, IgG and IgM antibodies may be produced. This reaction pattern is associated with the release of inflammatory substances by the immune system. Many food allergies are of this type, therefore, they are not detected by standard allergy tests, which usually only test for the IgE antibodies.</span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhQyUtsSPd2pSjz_vDk1Q7C8_82oLEb6eJ4rby2GTrG7P7SBomnPogXn4rRkzQ9n9uC1nPO1e_z0PuVgvm-zBY-dgvFhhEW09MXky1zmzoomqXIArWftGI0-aMNikoqyZ7nABXG8e49q9D-aHAPytr7KiKl43RcbNCF2Kh2cKQo5bYbGcJvDLSZSvybwA=s1280" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1280" data-original-width="1280" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhQyUtsSPd2pSjz_vDk1Q7C8_82oLEb6eJ4rby2GTrG7P7SBomnPogXn4rRkzQ9n9uC1nPO1e_z0PuVgvm-zBY-dgvFhhEW09MXky1zmzoomqXIArWftGI0-aMNikoqyZ7nABXG8e49q9D-aHAPytr7KiKl43RcbNCF2Kh2cKQo5bYbGcJvDLSZSvybwA=s320" width="320" /></a></div><p></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">The most common treatment for food allergies is avoidance.

Supply chain management can be defined as the process of planning, implementing and monitoring the everyday operations of a supply chain. It encompasses the process of availability of raw materials, their processing into finished goods and the distributions. The main aim of supply chain management is to provide the highest level of satisfaction to the customer and maintain good relationship with suppliers. <i><b>Thus, it increase the business of the company and emphasizes the right product at the right place at the right time at the right measure and at the right quantity.</b></i></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">In simpler terms, supply chain management generally makes a business run smoother. For instance, if issues surrounding are reduced, productivity is increased and money isn't lost, then this is an example of how supply chain management can benefit a company. <i><b>As long as there is a strong relationship between the business and manufacturers, the product will have a better chance at doing well. </b></i>After all, supply chain management involves every step of the supply chain process - from manufacturing to delivery.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Supply chain is a dynamic process and involves the constant flow of information, materials, and funds across multiple functional areas both within chain members. Supply chain management also emphasizes the important linkages between the manufacturer and the distributors as well as the customers.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">When you say supply chain, you should think about an entire network of specialists, including suppliers, factory workers, warehouse managers, people working for distribution centers and retailers, plus customers. They all take part in the production process starting from raw materials to the finished goods. <b><i>Supply chain management covers all these aspects, people and the activities are involved. From sourcing to procurement of materials and supplies, from transition and transportation.

These are closely linked to the corporate strategy and supply chain policies. On the other hand, operational decisions are short term and focus on activities over a day-to-day basis.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>The problems that the supply chain system is supposed to address includes the following</b>:</span></p><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Distributor Network Configuration:</span></li></ul><p></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Quantities and locations of people involved with the entire process of the supply chain including the suppliers, customers, warehouses, production facilities and distribution centers.</span></p><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Strategies for distribution</span></li></ul><p></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Centralized, direct shipments, push and pull strategies, cross docking and third party logistics.</span></p><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Information:</span></li></ul><p></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Integrating systems and processes through supply chain to share relevant and significant information consisting of demand signals, forecasting, transportation and of course, inventory.</span></p><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Management of inventory: </span></li></ul><p></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Number and location of inventory and also covers raw materials, finished goods as well as work in progress.</span></p><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Management of customer relations.</span></li></ul><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Management of customer service</span></li></ul><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Management of demands.</span></li></ul><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Fulfillment of orders.</span></li></ul><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Manufacturing flow management.</span></li></ul><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Management of supplier relations.</span></li></ul><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Developing the product and commercialize it.</span></li></ul><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Managing returns.</span></li></ul><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

Guarantees and product warranties are then sued by the customer to either regain a new product or get the existing one repaired free of cost.</span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjLvgPDyR3w8NCxVqXXg-yAwg4lsq7BF8ACC0-h6v5b_HzWrftS3j08izcBNM453fseP_mUIQ4H_uErLcbYpTDqQ0ogzIdW_UqVhNaNUDVAhokQv-cDaqUFNhwmbMZRgg_Ke_deDwNHpKsIOA5jC2rJ2M7Yk-Ve7poewU6g4SD40EvFLyXIhLn-Cd0PPQ=s2048" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1448" data-original-width="2048" height="226" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjLvgPDyR3w8NCxVqXXg-yAwg4lsq7BF8ACC0-h6v5b_HzWrftS3j08izcBNM453fseP_mUIQ4H_uErLcbYpTDqQ0ogzIdW_UqVhNaNUDVAhokQv-cDaqUFNhwmbMZRgg_Ke_deDwNHpKsIOA5jC2rJ2M7Yk-Ve7poewU6g4SD40EvFLyXIhLn-Cd0PPQ=s320" width="320" /></a></div><p></p><p><b><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Why Supply Chain Management is Important?</span></b></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">The importance and need of SCM has increased because customers demand faster, timely delivery of orders and more. As global competitions are increasing, customers have different choices & needs to satisfy demands. Without the use of supply chain management, there would be no effective way to sell a product & consumer satisfaction. Every running business needs this, since the supply chain will never go away. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Supply chain management systems are crucial for anyone who wants to have great and loyal customers. However, building strong relationships with an audience is not the only thing you need to do. By creating a structured supply chain management solution, you are forming bonds with manufacturers, marketers, and so on. If you are smoothly running your business, and following every step of the supply chain, chances are you will be networking with other top players and succeeding. In order to be a successful business, you must remember that the way your company operates is just as important as making money.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Supply chain management also monitors the production process of the company by ensuring regular supplies of high quality raw material in timely manner to be converted into finished goods. In order to make this process as success, a separate business department of business is assigned that is known as the supply chain management. This department works just like other departments of the business but has everything to do related with the production department of the business.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">overall, In today's rapid and dynamically changing world, ensuring regular supplies to meet consistent fluctuations in consumer demands has been defined as one of the most crucial aspects of any business if it wants to be successful enough to compete in terms of quality, price and competitors. For companies involved in the manufacturing sector SCM is the most important business department and in fact has been termed as a necessity to regulate the supply chain aspects of the business smoothly and efficiently. Nowadays business need not only lower costs in order to stay ahead in the ocean of cut throat competition, they also need to develop uniquely devised built-in competitive edges in order to be successful. Today only those businesses are successful that makes competitive policies in timely manner in accordance with the highly volatile consumer market.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">The importance of supply chain is valued very high that the Japanese auto giant Toyota had been consistently applying regular set of SCM policies in order to take over the completion by maximum utilization of its resources. As a result the company has efficiently been able to beat Ford of the USA. <b>Various advantages exist of supply chain that makes it an important aspect of any business</b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">1. <b>Value added concept </b>- SCM has been successfully able to add value to the production process by minimizing the production time in order to incorporate creativity and innovation to produce better products in the long run.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">2. <b>Increased profitability</b> - Efficient use of SCM polices results in lowered costs and rising profits. Big costs in terms of supplies are time and the price of raw materials. In order to save on finance, the company would have long term business relationships with its most valuable suppliers that would supply high quality bulk raw materials on time to the company so that the company can produce different products. This results in saving of time and costs by not hiring different suppliers on the daily basis.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">3. <b>Adjustment in trends</b> - Companies involved in the fashion industry like cosmetics, perfumes, textile, garments etc are subject to high fluctuations in seasonal demands of products. As seasons change so do people's preference of cosmetics and fabric changes. As a result supply chain has to effectively plain well ahead in time for the upcoming trends to get the manufacturing process adjusted. This can be achieved by clearing out stock on sales of previous items and going in quick manufacturing of new fabric to adjust to the new seasons.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">4. <b>Time saving</b> - Efficient use of SCM results in big savings on time so that the customer gets only the type of products that he/she wants.</span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjaaffUQSWdmpi8uLUUevaZqlIeYq4R6iEVhNExs_zAiA_aQIGv0gROv9iJBKvyj0HLkWkBZC4o4pPvGehBGIlJIVeUzVnuswXYIuuk7PnV0ZnE-aRYG0ouO51rb3mqDiPNlWGxMtMVgNitTjfuHQhyqKC0qzFN4kj_0WQHGyj4AkGFR7J6Z2URklQXzA=s2048" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1365" data-original-width="2048" height="213" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjaaffUQSWdmpi8uLUUevaZqlIeYq4R6iEVhNExs_zAiA_aQIGv0gROv9iJBKvyj0HLkWkBZC4o4pPvGehBGIlJIVeUzVnuswXYIuuk7PnV0ZnE-aRYG0ouO51rb3mqDiPNlWGxMtMVgNitTjfuHQhyqKC0qzFN4kj_0WQHGyj4AkGFR7J6Z2URklQXzA=s320" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEi4FSiw9DeDk-l85f7_xFXNK1NoX3gMKps2DnTwqH0HNiaco6CCC9ahr-T2B9o3Qp0zEA0Eqz6oHihDdGQxzZm8CWOsqvXBLxzNXzDzwaRC9hQM7DqHQAeAKMC8F0j6L_4MXVhnTTd2VkuB_eSig7klte3FeLCATDtTAvtO0xHd4tn9_XUm_kfCFsXQ8w=s2048" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1365" data-original-width="2048" height="213" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEi4FSiw9DeDk-l85f7_xFXNK1NoX3gMKps2DnTwqH0HNiaco6CCC9ahr-T2B9o3Qp0zEA0Eqz6oHihDdGQxzZm8CWOsqvXBLxzNXzDzwaRC9hQM7DqHQAeAKMC8F0j6L_4MXVhnTTd2VkuB_eSig7klte3FeLCATDtTAvtO0xHd4tn9_XUm_kfCFsXQ8w=s320" width="320" /></a></div><p></p><p><b><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Key Drivers of Logistics Supply Chain Management</span></b></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">From analyzing different journal articles, textbooks, web research<b><i>, I found the key drivers differ according to different perspectives which are Globalisation, Sustainability, Cost- awareness, Customers, Suppliers, Technology and Transportation</i></b>.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>Globalization:</b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">The external forces (i.e. political, economical, socio- cultural, technological, legal and environmental), local competition, continuous policy and regulations changes, pressure from international brands and all effects to meet the consumer demand in market. Thus, companies are facing huge challenges to meet the requirements globally. Though the product barriers are eliminated, no products are now considered domestic products but due to globalization forces companies tend to change policy and strategy regularly. Besides, with the benefits from globalization now, foreign investors are encouraged to invest in several countries which forces local companies to improve quality of existing products which create huge challenges in procurement, manufacturing, transportation and distribution activities for the companies.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">For instance, a company can develop a product in the US, manufacture in China and sell it worldwide, i.e. Apple. This makes a complex and challenging activity for the company. Thus, in order to maintain global demand Apple makes strategic choices to build global manufacturing and engineering infrastructure in California, Ireland and Singapore to capture markets in US, Europe and Asia. This global strategy from Apple allows the company to take advantage of capturing a large market. This strategy allows Apple to become the number ONE innovative company in the world.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>Sustainability</b>:</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Creating a sustainable chain has a major concern for companies. Constant variable pressure from regulations, geographic in nature, socio- economic impact, international policies and principles in general is complex for managing Supply chain management</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">For example, green environment (i.e. carbon emission); local governments are always imposing regulations which affect the manufacturer. For instance, production and manufacturing in developed countries like in Europe is a huge challenge because of strict rules and policies of environmental issues compared to underdeveloped countries like in Asia. For example, in the automobile industry producing vehicles is challenging because of environmental issues in different countries.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>Cost-Awareness</b>:</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">There are four major decision areas in cost awareness:</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>1. Location</b>: Convenient feasible location with availability resources including all facilities is the primary step towards creating a strategic network. However, due to geographical distance and cost, companies often weren't able to cope up with customer expectations.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>2. Production</b>: Cost fluctuation from production levels are critical issues for strategic decisions, such as what product to produce, which plant to allocate and what supplies to get for production.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>3. Inventory</b>: Inventory cost varies at different levels starting from raw materials to finished goods. Cost is also associated in buffer stock, safety stock or even days of inventory in hands as well as price increases during the periods of inflation affects.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>4. Transportation</b>: 30% of logistics cost associated with transportation that makes the companies think about distribution channels about air, ship and road. Air shipment is fast, reliable but expensive while sea shipment is cheap but time consuming.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>Customers</b>:</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Customers are the most unpredictable variables to determine demand. Frequent changes of demand, new expectations, changing approach of existing product, influential behaviour attitude towards products are all determined to develop a customer-product innovation strategy. For example, Apples starts it business on the bases of computers but after understanding demand of consumer, they launched iPhone, iPad, iPod as means of innovations strategy which satisfy customer but not merely makes the customer delight but introducing facilities like ITunes, music, software application gradually capture the market the whole market.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">The example here provides a key learning tool how the company understands its customer to achieve competitive advantage' which makes us think about what strategy they are following. In Apple strategy most of the iPhone and iPad items (i.e. parts) are outsourced. More precisely speaking, very few components are created by Apple, hardware is supplied by contract manufacturers and software is supplied by millions of software developers to build various applications for the devices which minimize the cost.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>Suppliers</b>:</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Supplier's motivation is important for quality, cost and delivery expectations of producing product with value as they have a greater influential aspect of supplying items. For example, Dell's direct strategy requires processing orders directly from customers. Dell's pull strategy to build computers on customer's specifications and deliver within time. To support this model, Dell asked suppliers to keep inventories within 15 minutes of the manufacturing locations. Virtually all products are made to order. Every two hours, the factory planning system sends out a computerized message to suppliers detailing what parts the plant needs. That means there is almost no inventory of parts or products in the factory and this happens only because of healthy relationships with suppliers.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"> <b>Technology</b>:</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">With the benefit of technology, customers are now becoming more technological oriented focusing on online trading, online shipping, online payment, online information, online virtual chatting, and so on. This technological process has a greater impact on customers and nowadays customers are constantly willing to get more information, answers, about their choice, preferences. Dell's could be an ideal example, how technology impacts on business and increases revenue. The success of Dell's direct sales strategy depends mostly on continuous development of technological aspects as the customer is willing to become more connected, assist them to develop cost effective quality product strategy.</span></p><p><br /></p>Deepanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16232576430932848586noreply@blogger.com27tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1336140491243447835.post-67085987105158737992021-11-10T10:31:00.002+05:452021-11-10T10:32:18.564+05:45Italian Cuisine- Introduction, Features, Recipes And What You Should Know?<p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"> <b>Italian Cuisine- A depth Guide & what You Should know</b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEixvsAOXrGWDDyTlnYV6NS_0MYA-Mah0HMeY0Bnu1LEUJiGAZQZMRdBcaaSb-zNp5EFvN_-GfBfTPjQdCWwwJBaAi9Vb8I7-S4jYw5IZfQUvBUOpQhpwPMqIYdRtyeki0SLPVz3YbFJYhCdh-d8v6-7P1mSdlHQX8Yd_eNBdXaSYDynlwNoOLiYO8GSOQ=s2048" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1685" data-original-width="2048" height="263" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEixvsAOXrGWDDyTlnYV6NS_0MYA-Mah0HMeY0Bnu1LEUJiGAZQZMRdBcaaSb-zNp5EFvN_-GfBfTPjQdCWwwJBaAi9Vb8I7-S4jYw5IZfQUvBUOpQhpwPMqIYdRtyeki0SLPVz3YbFJYhCdh-d8v6-7P1mSdlHQX8Yd_eNBdXaSYDynlwNoOLiYO8GSOQ=s320" width="320" /></a></span></div><p></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Cuisines reflect the cultural variety of countries and their diverse history affected by the civilization. Each country has its own cuisine that differs from other countries and represents the country's traditions. In today's article I am going to talk about<b> "Italian cuisine".</b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Italian cuisine is undoubtedly one of the best cuisine in the world which is characterized by it's great diversity just like Indian cuisine. The factor that has most influenced in Italian cuisine is it's history as Italy was continuously attacked/colonized and ruled by other countries and there was a high degree of fragmentation in the country. The whole country was divided into smaller states. <i><b>We can see influence of Greek, Roman, Germany, French, Turkish, Slavic, Arabic and Chinese cuisines in Italian cuisine.</b></i></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">The differences in climate and land are seen greatly in Italy as it goes from the Alps(typical mountain climate), the Po Valley(continental climate), the hills of central(coastal areas) up to the southern regions and islands(temperate climate). These differences have an impact not only on the available raw material but also on processed products.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Most people's common idea/perception of Italian cuisine is a combination of tortellini, minestrone, pizza, spaghetti, and lasagna. But, If you visit Italy with such an narrow view of Italian cuisine, you will be pleasantly surprised at the variety of food that the Italians eat. The reason for this variety is simple. <b><i><u>Italy has nineteen regions, each with its distinct cuisine. </u></i></b>In addition, Italian cuisine changes according to the seasons. Fresh ingredients are of utmost importance in an Italian kitchen. As a result, you will discover that the summer cuisine is different from the winter cuisine with each region its unique style of cooking featuring local vegetables and animal products.</span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgnL-fQmUEBcX0KBhGc57RFxoOz2uUHnZmksSGu-4TCnOL1At3d6ZK83UFO8JS1coCbTvrpFdBVdrPHA3R-Qk0rRQjCo_vAjtRrD6oWTmG4LgRVs0tT23DY4m7O1mYTo6fqSVAzLYr6gpV73Z4EiBO0Msy3PAv9nLxatsujgNe6_EGt-EL-CeCEGVQUnw=s2048" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1536" data-original-width="2048" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgnL-fQmUEBcX0KBhGc57RFxoOz2uUHnZmksSGu-4TCnOL1At3d6ZK83UFO8JS1coCbTvrpFdBVdrPHA3R-Qk0rRQjCo_vAjtRrD6oWTmG4LgRVs0tT23DY4m7O1mYTo6fqSVAzLYr6gpV73Z4EiBO0Msy3PAv9nLxatsujgNe6_EGt-EL-CeCEGVQUnw=s320" width="320" /></a></div><p></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">So, Don't limit your ideas of Italian cuisine to a few dishes of spaghetti and meatball. Italian cuisine is rich and complex. Many people are also under the misconception that the Italians use an over abundance of spices in their food. However, Italians use spices only to enhance the natural flavour of particular dishes. Moreover, the nature of Italian food depends on the seasons, and due to this, Italians do not depend heavily on the use of spices. Their meats, pastas, and sauces usually have a fresh flavour of their own. </span></p><p><b><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Though, </span><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Italy has nineteen regions, each with its distinct cuisine, we can distinguish Italian cuisine into North and South.</span></b></p><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>North Italian Cuisine</b></span></li></ul><p></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Usually, people are familiar<b> </b>with the part of Italian cuisine that is typical of north Italy. All the heavy dishes loaded with cheese and rich sauce comes from this region.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">- They prefer unsalted butter instead of olive oil, and make use of cream, polenta, risotto, and Mascarpone cheese.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">- They are into hearty soups during winter.</span> </p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">- They have veal, beef, and pork as preferred meat choices, because of a good cattle breed in their region, fit for milk and meat production.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">- They use less tomato and prefer fresh egg pasta.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">- Cooking style is from frying and boiling through stewing and slow braising.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">- Their cooks prefer to use broth or wine as liquid base, while adding herbs for good flavor.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">- Apart from ducks and other bird species, they also have a wide variety of fish, shells, and other sea foods, ranging from eels, to clams and mussels, and to freshwater fishes.</span></p><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>South Italian Cuisine</b></span></li></ul><p></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">The cuisine of south Italy is different. The people of south Italy use more fish in their diet. This variant of this Italian cuisine is named "Mediterranean food."</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">South Italian dishes are lighter and healthier. Due to their food habits. One of the factors that makes south Italian diet so healthy is the use of olive oil in most of their dishes. Spices are less used in southern cuisine when compared with northern cuisine. Similarly,The north use more butters and creams while the south more tomato and olive oil.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">- They make use of larger amounts of tomatoes, as opposed to the Northern cuisine, which makes use of red as their preferred sauce, and eggplants. Tomatoes and eggplants are considered summer vegetables. Broccoli and cauliflower are winter vegetables.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">- They prefer to use dried pasta rather than the egg pasta of the North.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">- Lamb and kid are necessary choices in their daily diet, as they are known for shepherding. Nevertheless, cattle and fish are still part of their dishes. In other areas, fish is even the dominating choice.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">- They also have excellent cheese.Mozarella cheese for example.</span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhrdHXdOTrR31v2ph040FFMOudlnSikYFiydIjQC3f-OMNs1JgwMBrxqC6zAYtw0a0mG1nMqPBTIVUu26IhjE67KF24vPsuQNYJyciks5jBTXUUA2c-qGaJE8YTARoUHgmgzu_vldFBWryhxJGBZbb8VuVCM4Dn6kVJHc7566QXAPojO55dJY27JpQBUw=s2612" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1204" data-original-width="2612" height="148" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhrdHXdOTrR31v2ph040FFMOudlnSikYFiydIjQC3f-OMNs1JgwMBrxqC6zAYtw0a0mG1nMqPBTIVUu26IhjE67KF24vPsuQNYJyciks5jBTXUUA2c-qGaJE8YTARoUHgmgzu_vldFBWryhxJGBZbb8VuVCM4Dn6kVJHc7566QXAPojO55dJY27JpQBUw=s320" width="320" /></a></div><p></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Milan is famous for their risotto, while Naples seems to have perfected the authentic Italian pizza recipe. The coastal regions are heavy on their use of fish and seafood on their recipes while Sicily cuisine has North African influence.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Moreover, Italian cuisine depends heavily on some basic ingredients that have become key to Italian cuisine like bread, pasta, wine, olive, cheese. Italian cuisine is usually easy to cook and has variety of vegetable options. High priority is given on the use of fresh, seasonal products. Moreover,<span style="background-color: white; color: #202122;"> many dishes have only two to four main ingredients.</span><span style="background-color: white; color: #202122; white-space: nowrap;"> </span><span style="background-color: white; color: #202122;">Italian cooks rely chiefly on the quality of the ingredients rather than on elaborate preparation like other cuisine. </span></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>Italian Traditional Menu</b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">A traditional Italian meal consists of:</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">1. Antipasto : They are Hot or cold appetizers. Literally it means "before the pasta"; and consists of a varied combination of colorful foods. The most popular ingredients are melon or tomatoes served with prosciutto cut into very thin slices.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">2. Primo ("first course"): usually consists of a hot dish like pasta, risotto, gnocchi, polenta or soup. There are usually many vegetarian options. There are also many types of pasta, each type usually named after its shape with common types including spirali (spirals), farfalle (butterflies; sometimes described as 'bow-tie-shaped'). Penne (hollow tubes) and conchiglie (shells). Different shapes are supposed to be better with the different types of sauces. Spirals are used with the heavier sauces, such as those containing minced meat and vegetables.</span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEi2N_OIwzu41JwJznHBCj8Ks_YtpkBctKfPcCpoJHlo4xRH9dPskOEAHJa81BO7oRzcT_b1n6wxWuy8ooyXClKiZqN6XqO3CRdFnN4y3CXb-Jb-32H_GhG11w8m59YOcgLkp-XjwzjZBoA2-UAQ9wbKclpc4iO-O19mIPzHBFJK3bivfPNBw6Z42KHioQ=s1920" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1279" data-original-width="1920" height="213" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEi2N_OIwzu41JwJznHBCj8Ks_YtpkBctKfPcCpoJHlo4xRH9dPskOEAHJa81BO7oRzcT_b1n6wxWuy8ooyXClKiZqN6XqO3CRdFnN4y3CXb-Jb-32H_GhG11w8m59YOcgLkp-XjwzjZBoA2-UAQ9wbKclpc4iO-O19mIPzHBFJK3bivfPNBw6Z42KHioQ=s320" width="320" /></a></div><p></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">3.

Many times they eat it twice a day, for lunch and breakfast. The reason for this love is because Italians have created such a large variety of pasta shapes that can be accompanied by a very wide variety of sauces and condiments that can literally satisfy the desires of everyone in the family. Of course Spaghetti by far may be the most popular pasta cut, but many others are quickly catching up. Lasagna, Ravioli, Rigatoni, Tortellini are just a few that should be mentioned.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>Italian Fish Recipes:</b> It is no secret that Italy is a country surrounded by water and therefore it has access to a large quantity and a large variety of fish. More interestingly, Italian fish has also a more distinct flavor. On every menu for sure there is a long list of fish dishes prepared in a wide variety of ways.</span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhhQEObF8ZTrR4ovMd7jWBxzhpwBu0mLGLDyERaDlX-OWoCt5sBi5S_wraeMgevSC_dR9254P5F8rp5Q10rzsDhf7b44qrKYRUmAXbYrg_dLzctFt6XpIs09h5zv5MvS1r1FZp-BLsPcLkDWEcRNWXRm6k7lLoQWfJS8arELo8UjcTDmTzGeJP7qAKhYQ=s2048" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1268" data-original-width="2048" height="198" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhhQEObF8ZTrR4ovMd7jWBxzhpwBu0mLGLDyERaDlX-OWoCt5sBi5S_wraeMgevSC_dR9254P5F8rp5Q10rzsDhf7b44qrKYRUmAXbYrg_dLzctFt6XpIs09h5zv5MvS1r1FZp-BLsPcLkDWEcRNWXRm6k7lLoQWfJS8arELo8UjcTDmTzGeJP7qAKhYQ=s320" width="320" /></a></div><p></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>Italian Meat Recipes:</b> Even though in Italy meat was considered a rich people food, many Italians, especially those that lived in farms, would grow their own animals and thus have access to meat as well. It was not unusual for those families to raise a pig and once butchered, every single part of the animal would be used to create a food product: Prosciutto, salami, pig feet, etc.. However, in line with the Mediterranean Diet, meat is not consumed in large quantities, it is only consumed in few and special occasions.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>Italian Chicken Recipes: </b>Chicken by Italians and everyone else, is considered to be an excellent meat both because it is very lean and also because it is inexpensive. Chickens in the Italian cuisine are very widely used as they can be prepared in many different ways. Perhaps the most popular and easy to make chicken dish is Chicken alla Cacciatore.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>Vegetable Recipes: </b>Vegetables play a large role in the Italian Cuisine. This is because many families would have their own garden and could grow their own vegetables, but also because vegetables have been integrated in many dishes including pasta</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>PIZZA</b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Every one loves pizza. Modern pizza has evolved from pizzas made by peasants in Naples. In ancient times many civilizations created dishes of flat bread with various herbs and toppings. As a staple for the poor, it was a matter of necessity that food could be eaten without utensils, and that the 'plate' it was served on could be eaten as well. They made a bread crust from flour, water and yeast and topped it with olive oil, herbs, cheeses, sometimes even leftovers, and baked the whole thing in a stone oven. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Tomatoes reached Italy by way of Spain in the early 1500s but were thought to be poisonous. It was several decades later that tomatoes topped a flatbread in the form of a pizza sauce and made pizza even more popular. </span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEg3rkisHoQJgqjevjE62MDGoWQKVELIoALR01xSBgfXToTbwnMc7KG7ulOKEzaPz_F2e0Sm4EOO5byzt_XD0it5365Bu5FTCjdGAK7GQi7-sO-ZoZhhAmBP9D1dO7xBPhM9-GL3kGArff6Wen9Er63ouUDqADPh5gWUHnnM6_MzopBPxapF62GhyeT1Ag=s2048" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1367" data-original-width="2048" height="214" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEg3rkisHoQJgqjevjE62MDGoWQKVELIoALR01xSBgfXToTbwnMc7KG7ulOKEzaPz_F2e0Sm4EOO5byzt_XD0it5365Bu5FTCjdGAK7GQi7-sO-ZoZhhAmBP9D1dO7xBPhM9-GL3kGArff6Wen9Er63ouUDqADPh5gWUHnnM6_MzopBPxapF62GhyeT1Ag=s320" width="320" /></a></div><p></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>Types of Italian coffee</b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Italian Style Coffee is very famous, known also as espresso, a concentrated coffee prepared by forcing boiling water through finely ground coffee beans at high pressure.

Good posture is very important. Ensure that your legs and arms are not fidgeting. Focus on the tone of your voice. Do not be loud. Maintain eye contact when you talk with somebody and most importantly, have a smiling face. <b><u><i>Following are some important tips for Grooming:</i></u></b></span></p><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Check your clothes each day to see if it is damaged, crashed or stained.</span></li></ul><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Keep shoes polished and in good shape or neatly clean</span></li></ul><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">There should not be any holes in socks.</span></li></ul><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Fingernails must be kept short. Not bitten and spotlessly clean at all times.</span></li></ul><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Hair must be clean and neat at all times. You should keep your hair above collar length at all times to look more professional.</span></li></ul><p></p><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Shave daily. This is compulsory for clear shaved skin.</span></li></ul><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">wear a classic watch.</span></li></ul><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Try to maintain personal hygiene all the time. You should care for your breath & body odour.</span></li></ul><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Wear proper clothes and make sure it fits you.</span></li></ul><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Bend your tie properly and blend it with your clothes perfectly.</span></li></ul><p></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>How to dress well</b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Personal grooming and dressing well complement each other so they have to be handled simultaneously. First of all, wear clothes that fit you well, not baggy clothing that falls beneath your waist to the point where everyone can see your underwear! Matching your clothes is also key, as is accessorizing to increase the style of your look. For instance matching watches with your clothes really looks nice. So, don't feel greedy to buy 1/2 quality luxurious watch.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>How to take care of your skin</b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">First of all, The foods you eat are very important, especially to your skin. You may be surprised to know how much action is going on in your skin cell structure every minute of the day. Making sure you eat foods that are high in antioxidants to prevent ageing or allow you a slower rate of aging and clearer younger looking skin. The way you eat has a lot to do with the normal functioning of skin cells.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Secondly, Drinking plenty of water is important aspect of your appearance. Maintaining healthy levels of cell hydration is necessary for you to not only look good, but to also feel energized and happy. If the cells in your body are struggling because of dehydration then it's clear that they are not going to be able to produce enough energy for your body to function normally. Take care to drink water every day to ensure complete cell hydration.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Thirdly, Rest is another essential requirement for you to both look and feel good. Getting enough sleep in today's society can be a challenging aspect of male grooming. Making certain you get into bed every evening around the same time can do wonders for your health. Your body will use the down time to make repairs and get ready for the next day. Without enough sleep, your system spends the time during the day grinding to a halt due to simply being overworked and tired. Avoiding fatigue should start with a good night's sleep every night.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Fourthly, Exercising regularly is another way you can promote good skin. Keeping tone and fit can also allow you to look like you want as well. Working out on a regular schedule has many benefits related to how you look and feel along with your mental health.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Also, Monitoring the amount of stress in your life is the key to your good health and good skin </span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>How To Create Yourself?</b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>Clothing</b>: Your clothing has to reflect who you are in the world. Of course, it's important to maintain different wardrobes for different occasions. You need to formulate specific dress codes for each situation. For example, work necessitates a certain style that is confident yet professional. Going out to bars and clubs requires a dress that has more style and demonstrates to the world that you have a sense of style that is unique.</span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgun4UtBvQwriHP0SJHuqURU_WzbgtqXi4X28omy97pUMvjp370u-OObYudA2GXN1JOScqQ6WGZn87voHYhgvX8lte__Wkc2DkzWYc3pdcHew0nd8PsIMz89V5mlaPHq2I6vuBtt1JCg1cnYWP-nVJ7rXtev6o2425yfKJ57zl8CIQNnUJAe2RCsk1D6w=s2048" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1591" data-original-width="2048" height="249" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgun4UtBvQwriHP0SJHuqURU_WzbgtqXi4X28omy97pUMvjp370u-OObYudA2GXN1JOScqQ6WGZn87voHYhgvX8lte__Wkc2DkzWYc3pdcHew0nd8PsIMz89V5mlaPHq2I6vuBtt1JCg1cnYWP-nVJ7rXtev6o2425yfKJ57zl8CIQNnUJAe2RCsk1D6w=s320" width="320" /></a></div><p></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Even more important than your choice of clothing is the way you wear it. Even if you're wearing expensive, designer clothes, you'll immediately be discounted if there are obvious stains or not ironed.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>Your Scent</b>: This is generally under appreciated and underrated, in terms of creating the unique you. In time, those close to you will begin to automatically associate your signature scent with the new, powerful you. I advice you to go with musk deodorant and sprays. </span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEg84QjWrf5ETKH_EBwHsBxic3WBZJ2ULNrHS-1YPD_VRqTFgPCsMCN-NxRsMYSfKdi1EnAX_rQ8M5ORda_-tt8OK7gW-U5mcLpPwc1MNNEIRhxpU1cwHCsv-a_GEJ2zk-EY94xJeD5twE5181stCTIjNoc7XmBtAvOCvtx5_aS15lDyXfcQl1ofwc-zMg=s2048" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1365" data-original-width="2048" height="213" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEg84QjWrf5ETKH_EBwHsBxic3WBZJ2ULNrHS-1YPD_VRqTFgPCsMCN-NxRsMYSfKdi1EnAX_rQ8M5ORda_-tt8OK7gW-U5mcLpPwc1MNNEIRhxpU1cwHCsv-a_GEJ2zk-EY94xJeD5twE5181stCTIjNoc7XmBtAvOCvtx5_aS15lDyXfcQl1ofwc-zMg=s320" width="320" /></a></div><p></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>Attitude</b>: This is probably the most crucial part of developing your personal style. You can't run around acting silly all the time. That kind of behaviour would completely undermine the strides you've taken in other areas such as clothing. You need to always maintain a refined attitude, making sure never to show anger or fear in public. You'll be surprised by how quickly people begin to take you seriously if you do the same. No one will appreciate the "new you" if you don't have that high opinion of yourself.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Combine all of these standards, and you'll have the recipe for success. Transformation probably won't take place overnight, but if you maintain a constant vigil, you'll look into the mirror someday soon and find yourself shocked at the sight of the new, better you.</span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEinq78kNReVlbFtZIixiH-PSi1Njn6BLon4cZIGuWGjlDIYOVpp_CLPMLzgypFaARrrsYlC8n1WBjTkK7xLo5ff9ofIDm1l8YXcuX5akCaIprsa9xcLgYhgnMbiA0KBr5JnKvmoz1r8Uz12rFcM2ovAEWlpn1ZnN6SBr2mCRaG-oGciTDPbcwvGIv-1bQ=s2048" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1360" data-original-width="2048" height="213" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEinq78kNReVlbFtZIixiH-PSi1Njn6BLon4cZIGuWGjlDIYOVpp_CLPMLzgypFaARrrsYlC8n1WBjTkK7xLo5ff9ofIDm1l8YXcuX5akCaIprsa9xcLgYhgnMbiA0KBr5JnKvmoz1r8Uz12rFcM2ovAEWlpn1ZnN6SBr2mCRaG-oGciTDPbcwvGIv-1bQ=s320" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEizG9AK344fEWs-RuHjfUxcAi6dPSsXPGJNw5rXktB5ewMjm8mzIlplvmK74ELQHi6KoWTr1NtpiZVaAccDk94e-gUrpyVim5YPT-1g6XuLwiyfeE2wIKLqdPYHg9E2Xkvs5wVbOSacY_ZogongKc_653U7o3eCJ9kyusiqqOj_dqAoEG6ctwWuNxAElg=s2048" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1365" data-original-width="2048" height="213" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEizG9AK344fEWs-RuHjfUxcAi6dPSsXPGJNw5rXktB5ewMjm8mzIlplvmK74ELQHi6KoWTr1NtpiZVaAccDk94e-gUrpyVim5YPT-1g6XuLwiyfeE2wIKLqdPYHg9E2Xkvs5wVbOSacY_ZogongKc_653U7o3eCJ9kyusiqqOj_dqAoEG6ctwWuNxAElg=s320" width="320" /></a></div><p></p><p><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-family: Montserrat;"><b><i>(Note: Investing on some quality deodorant, body sprays, perfume, shower gel, hair cream, shaving cream, after shave, talcum powder, underwear, watch, shoes, socks, belt, soap, few clothes, shampoo and moisturizer will never make you feel regret, you will see change in yourself and your attitude.

Having insurance protects not only you and your business, property but your clients as well. <b><i><span style="color: #3d85c6;">In simple words, insurance is a risk transfer mechanism, where you transfer your risk to the insurance company and get the cover for financial loss that you may face due to unforeseen events. </span></i></b></span><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">With a good insurance policy, you protect both your business and the welfare of your clients. Hotel deals with many types of people coming and going every day. Insurance is critical for hotels and is something that should never be taken for granted or forgotten about.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Though, the hotel business comes under the hospitality industry, it deals with heavy infrastructure such as buildings, storages, capital investment machinery, year inventory, and also other contents/supplies such as cutleries, crockery, utensils, furniture & fixtures, electrical installations e.t.c</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">As an owner or an investor of a hotel business, you are also at risk of facing situations which can result in loss and damage to your business. These situations commonly include fire accidents, theft of contents, any catastrophe leading to damage of property or casualty to customer/employee, legal claims from customers, employer-employee dispute.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Thus, hotel insurance is very important for a hotel owner to cover all the possible financial issues related to the business. While choosing a hotel insurance policy, it is better to go for a single policy which covers all possible risks and damages that might occur and covered it. For instance the policy should cover all the following; </span></p><p style="text-align: left;"><b style="font-family: Montserrat;">1. Coverage against claims made by public:</b></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Hotel business involves diverse dealing with the public. Thousands of people are dealt with everyday. No matter the size, Large or small hotel, there is high risk of liability in services because of unhappy customers who may sue you because of any damage occurred to them or their property, due to the negligence of your Hotel or Hotel employees knowingly/unknowingly.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Hotels also serve wide variety of exotic Foods and beverages. There is a high risk of liability associated with these food items. People may fall sick after eating! Hotel insurance protects your business against the claims that originate due to the faulty food items served by your carelessness.</span></p><p style="text-align: left;"><b style="font-family: Montserrat;">2. Coverage against Employers and product liability claims:</b></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Here, there are two segments: employers liability and product liability. The law instructs all employers to take care of the employees health and working conditions at the workplace. It is the employer's responsibility to take adequate measures for sickness or casualty. If any of the employees gets injured or dies in an on-job accident, he/she is entitled for compensation from the respective management. No matter where the accident happens, in the premises or outside the hotel, if the employee is on duty, he can file a liability claim. In case, the working conditions cause any harm to the employees health, then are there chances of facing a liability claimed by the employees which are huge.</span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgNJ_2iMhS7Lqn98GNgl59H2kk6U_TOQwHRvT47A5QqFND_2DWeQ25vwv70sKDWER0vvyKfX1YL7m3gAmveeoUrpZHFUncOWuPmscSNVX48J7Mp4PRlKsCLv9C-COKfiXD0RtMO7l-PzDpEy1HSlzwXrgp5QG1oLYEK3ov1h9w1RSWwkpiFMDXEPBfmvw=s2048" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1767" data-original-width="2048" height="276" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgNJ_2iMhS7Lqn98GNgl59H2kk6U_TOQwHRvT47A5QqFND_2DWeQ25vwv70sKDWER0vvyKfX1YL7m3gAmveeoUrpZHFUncOWuPmscSNVX48J7Mp4PRlKsCLv9C-COKfiXD0RtMO7l-PzDpEy1HSlzwXrgp5QG1oLYEK3ov1h9w1RSWwkpiFMDXEPBfmvw=s320" width="320" /></a></div><p></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>Coverage against Product liability: </b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">It Ensures smooth run of the business without any business interruption. Apart from the risks associated with employees, the public and customers, you may face risks that are absolutely out of your control like economic recession, Natural calamities that interrupt your hotel business, and might result in temporary/permanent shutdown of the business. Hotel insurance cover for all these Employers and product liability claims.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>3. Coverage against Property related damages:</b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">As for property concerns, property insurance is necessary. If any of the property is lost, damaged, or stolen as a result of accident, disaster, vandalism, and more, you will need coverage under this insurance policy. With equipment breakdown coverage, the hotel or motel will be covered for equipment failure. Equipment can include all small and large items such as an elevator, a washing machine and dryer, or even a coffee machine.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Similarly, hotel property is also at risk due to natural calamities like floods, tsunamis, earthquakes e.t.c or due to other reasons such as theft, fire, terrorism e.t.c. Damages resulting from these events require huge repairing costs which are burdensome and create financial imbalance. Hotel insurance policy covers all the property related expenses and provides quick financial support in all such unpredictable events.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>4. Coverage against Customer liability claims</b>:</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Many customers today are aware of the legal claims and compensation they can avail if anything goes wrong during their stay in the hotels. Any accident, as small as a guest falling due to a slippery floor, can make the hotel liable for compensation. In worst cases, the injury or the damage could become serious which leads to a higher compensation. As a hotel insurance policy covers all kinds of customer liability claims, hotels can effectively face all liability claims and can successfully avoid unnecessary expenses.</span></p><p><b><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">5. Coverage against </span><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Cyber Attack and data leakage:</span></span></b></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Do you know hotel records your everything?yes, it's true! They record your preference, your favourite food, drinks, details, your name, address, birthday, spending nature in their computer. Every minute details is recorded and there is high chance that these data gets breached or leaked and guest may sue hotel for compensation on it. Cyber attack insurance helps protect against both malicious online attacks and data breaches.</span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhm7ixr6R4Q6i5WkQtEMuVOUTn3vHMox4Dg5-hSx0OZQXzkkrC3bd5U4NO-V1956G2LLMd5FvTqFZob1p2pDr8GiRwHjFECI8P2oGfkskrLssRlc3IKIcviIQIQqXsK5Q3GnAku13dG8Nz0aLDl995d0MNTCweeNKyZ3rRRiaZUHcvDYs9Yl1dJwkFL-A=s2048" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="2048" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhm7ixr6R4Q6i5WkQtEMuVOUTn3vHMox4Dg5-hSx0OZQXzkkrC3bd5U4NO-V1956G2LLMd5FvTqFZob1p2pDr8GiRwHjFECI8P2oGfkskrLssRlc3IKIcviIQIQqXsK5Q3GnAku13dG8Nz0aLDl995d0MNTCweeNKyZ3rRRiaZUHcvDYs9Yl1dJwkFL-A=s320" width="320" /></a></span></div><p></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>6. Coverage against Business interruption:</b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Business interruption insurance is an important consideration for any kind of business. The main advantage of including this insurance in a hotel insurance policy is to ensure smooth run of the business even in worst case scenarios, like the death of the owner and some other serious issues that halt the operations of the hotel. This single feature helps owners to run their businesses even when situations force them to shut down their business.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>7. Coverage against General liability:</b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>Example 1</b> : A luggage carrier’s wheel locks up while a child is riding the carrier, causing the child to fall off the carrier. They sustain a head injury during the fall. General liability insurance would likely cover necessary medical care.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>Example 2:</b> A young child finds their way to the pool and gets in the water. They haven’t learned to swim, and the result is a tragic drowning accident. General liability insurance would likely cover any lawsuit filed against the hotel seeking compensation for the incident.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>Example 3: </b>While carrying luggage into the hotel, a guest slips on some ice in the parking lot and falls. General liability insurance would probably cover any settlements related to injuries that they sustained in the fall.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>8. Coverage against Legal Expenses:</b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Running a hotel means that you will probably be employing staff and you will definitely be hosting guests and this type of insurance provides cover for any legal expenses which are incurred following any disputes with customers and also staff. For example, if a staff member decides to try and sue you for a particular reason, this type of insurance cover can help to pay the bills if the case goes to court.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">The insurance company would be the ones responsible for any amounts that an ordinary business could not afford. However keep in mind to insure your business as fast as possible because most insurance companies do not like to insure older buildings as they present a much higher risk. Some of those risks include older wiring, weaker structural design and poor layout. If there is older wiring, there is a higher chance you could have a fire at your location and the insurance company would be the one stuck with the bill. If there is a poor layout, people could get trapped in your building during natural disasters & get seriously hurt and the insurance company would then again be forced to make a payout.</span></p><p><span style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-family: Montserrat; letter-spacing: 0.16px;">Overall, </span><span style="font-family: Montserrat; white-space: pre-wrap;">Hotel insurance is typically a package of various coverages that protect you from the many risks involved with running your hospitality business. Things like employee mistakes, destructive guest behaviour, injury or property damage, reputational risks, equipment breakdown, food contamination, and weather-related events or natural disasters can all be covered. Moreover, Hotel insurance also covers and claims for:</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal;

I have seen many people confused while buying olive oil in supermarkets and randomly selecting olive oil brand. Hope this article may help you to choose the best olive oil simply by reading the label on olive oil bottle and have some knowledge on Olive oil. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Olive oil is pressed from olives. People have been making oil from olives for as long as 5,000 years according to archeological evidence. Today olives are grown and processed into Spain, Italy, and Greece. </span><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Olive oil has a wide range of flavours and fragrances. Considered the best of all oils, it is the traditional oil for kings, bishops, and temples in western culture/Mediterranean cuisine.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Olives are produced by olive trees which are very hardy, drought, disease and fire resistant. Olives have a sweet fleshy layer outside and a small seed inside with a bitter taste. They flourishes in Mediterranean-type climates. Spain accounts for almost half of global olive oil production while consumption is highest in Greece, followed by Italy and Spain.</span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjJwvRdM1Vdl4X4SGW7Ol8WUinICd27Im7iWCe8PC7ZYz6LSLBUQIuWMmbIY_vpVptcxz-HZNQEsmhzcCRyIr60b8WiumA4qAp3vqUNe2qn2y5WDaqdlhJUrshf4oEqVUSr3ooQAgiii7hHcfP6xpLcxqpvFwnZxSnrl7_rPjFmWZUF-1WePd4XwK_KBg=s2048" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1365" data-original-width="2048" height="213" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjJwvRdM1Vdl4X4SGW7Ol8WUinICd27Im7iWCe8PC7ZYz6LSLBUQIuWMmbIY_vpVptcxz-HZNQEsmhzcCRyIr60b8WiumA4qAp3vqUNe2qn2y5WDaqdlhJUrshf4oEqVUSr3ooQAgiii7hHcfP6xpLcxqpvFwnZxSnrl7_rPjFmWZUF-1WePd4XwK_KBg=s320" width="320" /></a></div><p></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">There are different grades of olive oil- extra virgin, virgin, pure, pomace, and lite.

Extra Virgin olive oil</b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Virgin olive oils are obtained from the fruit of the olive tree solely by mechanical/physical pressing (First press means that this oil came from the first press of the olives. Cold means no additional heat is applied during pressing).They don't undergo any treatment other than washing, decanting, centrifuging and filtering and consists of Extra Virgin olive oil, virgin olive oil. Extra Virgin Olive Oil has a maximum acidity of 1% while Virgin Olive Oil has a maximum acidity of 2%.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Extra Virgin olive oils are least processed and are derived from the first pressing of olives. It contains high amounts of nutrients and vitamins and no additives with light, delicate,superior taste. This oil is highly valued for its perfect balance of flavour, aroma, colour and acidity level and is mostly used for cooking, as topping on salads, in dressings or as a dipping oil for breads. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>Chef note: </b>Extra Virgin Olive Oil needs to be cooked very carefully because it can easily loose its flavour with heat. Save the most expensive, high quality extra virgin olive oil for drizzling over cooked dishes just before serving. Extra virgin olive oil is an entirely natural product and is more expensive to produce. Extra virgin olive oil has much better taste than the refined mixes.</span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEikxDaBbYwD4J6UqiN7OwUK76Ub69HkMaRpltPXe-V6SfOSJbQ6J8b2ZoNUeveuxHycLWQNMjwQFmbZSTc_1UnCgrNcD1VnTBSNBUXXKPWkMohe7TJ_n7R4Pu94yjWGuJg3_wkQ_NrKfpmVa0OB5TrRH7j5Qbmy30M-zOE7i1Lu8ag7rgz0WmI5K5nEJg=s1920" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1920" data-original-width="960" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEikxDaBbYwD4J6UqiN7OwUK76Ub69HkMaRpltPXe-V6SfOSJbQ6J8b2ZoNUeveuxHycLWQNMjwQFmbZSTc_1UnCgrNcD1VnTBSNBUXXKPWkMohe7TJ_n7R4Pu94yjWGuJg3_wkQ_NrKfpmVa0OB5TrRH7j5Qbmy30M-zOE7i1Lu8ag7rgz0WmI5K5nEJg=s320" width="160" /></a></div><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><br /></span><p></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>2. Virgin Olive Oil</b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">They are Produced from the second processing of olives. It has a good taste and is used for cooking, as dressings, salads and more. Virgin means mechanical extraction. The oil or juice is extracted by machines with no chemicals used in the process.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>3. Pure Olive Oil</b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Pure olive oil is a blend of refined and virgin olive oil. It has lower nutrient content and is less expensive. It Cannot be used for dressings, but can be used for high temperature cooking. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">The word refined is often associated with increased purity, but in the case of olive oil it means that the taste and acidity were altered by artificial means. Refined oils invariably start with lower quality olives, and suffer from a lack of the true taste of the olive. They undergo thermal and chemical treatments to reduce acidity, subjected to an extremely fine filtration process to remove any residual chemicals, and then fortified with a small amount of virgin or extra virgin oil to give them some flavour and colour. The refining process increases the smoke point to about 410ºF making this olive oil more suitable for high heat cooking and frying. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>Chef note: </b>'Pure', 'Light', 'Extra Light', etc. are not olive oil classifications. They are mixes of refined or pomace with virgin olive oil.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>4. Pomace Olive Oil</b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Pomace oil is the Lowest grade of olive oil which is produced from the residual oil left in the olive's pomace. It is then, Blended with varying amounts of virgin olive oil to make it acceptable for consumers. This oil is mainly used for high temperature cooking. Pomace oil is rarely found in markets, but is used in restaurant cooking. It is fit for consumption but not very tasty. Pomace is produced by a heat and chemical process from the waste of the virgin olive oil after the virgin olive oil is extracted.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>5. Lite Olive Oil</b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Lite olive oil is poorer quality olive oil which contains very tiny amounts of virgin oils but the same amounts of calories and fats as all olive oils. Lite olive oils are refined olive oils that have not been fortified with virgin or extra virgin oil, and therefore lack any taste or colour. This type of oil can be used for baking or other forms of cooking where you don't want the oil to flavour the food at all.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>How to select the right olive oil for your cooking?</b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Many people gets confused on selecting the right olive oil as there are wide varieties available in market.</span></p><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Unfiltered oils are great for salad dressings, dipping, or to drizzle on soups or pastas. They should never be used for cooking, because the sediments reduce the smoke point to a very low level.</span></li></ul><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Use virgin or extra virgin oil for dipping, toast, to finish sauces, anywhere you will be able to taste the oil as you will get maximum flavour from virgin olive oil. </span></li></ul><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">The rule of thumb is to only use expensive virgin or extra virgin oils in cold dishes or right at the end of cooking, you can also use them to sauté. They cost more, but Keep in mind that these oils have a relatively low smoke point, so keep an eye on them.</span></li></ul><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Refined or light olive oils are great for baking. Their lack of flavour is actually a plus in baked goods, and you get many of the health benefits of unprocessed oils.</span></li></ul><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">use olive oil for deep frying - its higher smoke point (410 degrees) and less intense flavour make it perfect for this type of cooking.</span></li></ul><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgdyLTYhMssu4s4fOKMdPQjbw7YGgxCGARmm8xZMECv0UbUQylNDf_h0LNa2EQ1IXt6BtLiOqaxQ_ZIV9PMoHFuj8vqjaGwRbr6aNWjgmG6hThGnP2eiLaV_XiWlTWPFwDZ4LcSf3qLkfEKZPvGlHd7WcHF9mLPvoVV_GF5-9QQgeU4A6Z14ChQtcoWZQ=s2048" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1638" data-original-width="2048" height="256" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgdyLTYhMssu4s4fOKMdPQjbw7YGgxCGARmm8xZMECv0UbUQylNDf_h0LNa2EQ1IXt6BtLiOqaxQ_ZIV9PMoHFuj8vqjaGwRbr6aNWjgmG6hThGnP2eiLaV_XiWlTWPFwDZ4LcSf3qLkfEKZPvGlHd7WcHF9mLPvoVV_GF5-9QQgeU4A6Z14ChQtcoWZQ=s320" width="320" /></a></div></div><p></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>Chef note: </b>Most olive oils are filtered to remove sediments that occur naturally during pressing. Some, however, retain the sediment in the final product. This is thought by many to strengthen and improve the flavour of the oil. The sediments can go rancid over time, so use unfiltered oils within 3 - 6 months of purchase.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>Storing Olive Oil</b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Keep olive oil tightly sealed in a cool, dry, dark place to resist rancidity. Heat, air, light and time are the enemies of olive oil. If it's over six months old it can lose up to 40% of its healthy, antioxidants benefits so beware if you are seeing discount and offers in olive oil in bhatbhateni. It may be old stock of olive oil.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Olive oil does not improve with age, so use it within 3 months. It can be refrigerated but there are different opinions about this. Some claim refrigeration can harm its flavour and others claim it may need refrigeration. Refrigeration will cause the oil to turn solid, but then return to a liquid form when it's removed. I will say taking olive oil in and out of the refrigerator causes it to lose its uniqueness, so don't do it. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>Health Benefits of Olive Oil</b></span></p><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Olive oil is easy to digest and helps our bodies assimilate vitamins and minerals. It aids the digestive system by stimulating the gallbladder. Olive oil is cholesterol free and stimulates cellular growth, speeds the healing process.</span></li></ul><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Olive oil Reduces LDL, (bad cholesterol,) promotes HDL, (good cholesterol); lowers risk of heart disease. Olive oil discourages clogging of arteries. Good quality olive oil is rich in vitamins A, B1, B2, C, D, E and K.</span></li></ul><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Renews skin cells and adds shine to dull, dry or frizzy hair. However, </span><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Olive Oil is a heavy oil, so it doesn't absorb easily into the skin, and it can also be a breeding ground for bacteria, which can cause <b style="background-color: white; color: #4d5156; max-height: 999999px; white-space: break-spaces;">clogged pores and acne</b><span style="background-color: white; color: #4d5156; white-space: break-spaces;">.</span></span></li></ul><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Olive Oil prevents Cancer.</span></li></ul><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Olive Oil lowers blood pressure</span></li></ul><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Olive oil boosts Hearts Health. Heart failures are a rare thing found among those who consume olive oil. For centuries, olive oil has been a major player in the low incidence of heart disease among Mediterranean populations.</span></li></ul><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Olive Oil leads to weight loss</span></li></ul><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">The main reason olive oil is healthy is because it is rich in healthy monounsaturated fatty acids. About 75% of that monounsaturated fat is oleic acid, which is very stable even at high temperatures.</span></li></ul><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Organic extra virgin olive oil also contains high levels of antioxidants like phenols, and vitamins E and A, which fight free radicals and thus prevent premature ageing.</span></li></ul><p></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>Extra note:</b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">The main thing to keep in mind is that olive oil has a low smoke point. This means the oil will start to smoke at high temperatures. If you have ever over-heated olive oil in a pan, you know how it can fill your kitchen with smoke and will destroy the flavour of food. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><br /></span></p><p><br /></p>Deepanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16232576430932848586noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1336140491243447835.post-28191729837024938502021-10-12T11:26:00.001+05:452021-10-12T11:27:27.225+05:45Saffron- The Queen of all Spices<p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;"><b>Saffron- The Queen of all Spices</b></span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjcZIcCq-2MVF3VWIDBHpq4njB43IlEQtcskvnbR3l9haqYsKEioem500zGugbivhPaQ5i7626XgtF1zVSzrywvi5TnGZ1lBlUfXstdj_2x6scOvgwgbmeLHggw8n71pNPq2kokqIGaQR6v3jXZk517yA4-qrbQxmXRR-NnlxhURe3SfvUANSUhl17cFQ=s2048" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Saffron the red gold" border="0" data-original-height="1532" data-original-width="2048" height="239" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjcZIcCq-2MVF3VWIDBHpq4njB43IlEQtcskvnbR3l9haqYsKEioem500zGugbivhPaQ5i7626XgtF1zVSzrywvi5TnGZ1lBlUfXstdj_2x6scOvgwgbmeLHggw8n71pNPq2kokqIGaQR6v3jXZk517yA4-qrbQxmXRR-NnlxhURe3SfvUANSUhl17cFQ=w320-h239" title="Saffron the red gold" width="320" /></a></div><p></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">Saffron "The queen of all spices" is a well-known spice that is used in different cuisines around the world. It is regularly being used in Iranian, Central Asian, Indian, Turkish and Moroccan cuisines. It is added to soups, sauces, fish, rice dishes and also in pastries and cakes. Saffron derives its name from a Latin word meaning yellow and is used to flavour a number of dishes all around the globe. </span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">It is an extravagant spice and known to be the most expensive spice in the world. This spice comes from the stigmas of the flower Crocus Sativus. Only 3 stigmas are produced per plant and they have to be harvested within two weeks of appearing Thus, To make a half kilogram of saffron spice, it takes about 75,000 - 100000 floral blooms/stigmas (2000 stigmas for 1 gram saffron sometimes). These are then hand picked, dried in newspapers using labour intensive methods and are stored in an airtight container out of the light when dried.These Floral blooms/stigmas are believed to cure many illnesses and also had the capability of making strong dye. Due to this reason, Saffron is expensive!</span></span></p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;"><br /></span><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">During medieval times, Europeans used saffron to treat respiratory infections like asthma, smallpox and common colds. Ancient Egyptians used it as a tonic to battle dysentery. In Past saffron was prescribed for treating a number of diseases, sleep problems and treating depression. There is also evidence that Alexander the Great used saffron for various sauces with rice dishes during his conquest of Asia campaign and also used saffron in baths, to treat battle wounds. In modern days, saffron is used as an anticarcinogenic, or cancer-suppressing, agent.</span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgbPPhgXduX4wAphiv7A-HMhmUUeCRdQYg5b9wuVgflprd_UcX14HrgV6KeOVfoko89JcH8dgYHH8L2z1-SFkML5CDBUaPorp27YAmdg50jqiVpgFwSyHemjggUa5XRLCxu1LOU7C5vvyWaymNpRllSgc_aj37IIm5uucgPOAeGxBLvKVVFHrSFfeJIzQ=s2048" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Saffron" border="0" data-original-height="1536" data-original-width="2048" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgbPPhgXduX4wAphiv7A-HMhmUUeCRdQYg5b9wuVgflprd_UcX14HrgV6KeOVfoko89JcH8dgYHH8L2z1-SFkML5CDBUaPorp27YAmdg50jqiVpgFwSyHemjggUa5XRLCxu1LOU7C5vvyWaymNpRllSgc_aj37IIm5uucgPOAeGxBLvKVVFHrSFfeJIzQ=w320-h240" title="Saffron" width="320" /></a></span></div><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgddO52ceRUXhllu6RT-vibU_gJp8Lf_QwF8WF7iOXbk4IlJi5FE_wJcbFkR-RoxZBZUS1SpJqwlUZpDJdDWEMyP1JE_nq56CyTGP3-SojEmDpPBQ8ifr7JSfbwFCBDPpIW1V1VvS9_ObPukZlCKOsRYc6oGNtb0cWPG-hTebxHFSIR_mNJQmS9WV7iJg=s2048" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Saffron easyhotelmanagement" border="0" data-original-height="1365" data-original-width="2048" height="213" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgddO52ceRUXhllu6RT-vibU_gJp8Lf_QwF8WF7iOXbk4IlJi5FE_wJcbFkR-RoxZBZUS1SpJqwlUZpDJdDWEMyP1JE_nq56CyTGP3-SojEmDpPBQ8ifr7JSfbwFCBDPpIW1V1VvS9_ObPukZlCKOsRYc6oGNtb0cWPG-hTebxHFSIR_mNJQmS9WV7iJg=w320-h213" title="Saffron easyhotelmanagement" width="320" /></a></div></span><p></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">Pure saffron contains only the stigma of the Crocus flower with nothing else added. Today, the usual methods of counterfeiting/adulterating saffron is by mixing it with beet, pomegranate fibers, and red-colored silk threads. Other options are immersing the saffron threads into honey or oil to make them gain more weight.True saffron is expensive and has a deep orange to brownish red color. The coloring capabilities of saffron come from the red portion of the saffron threads and not the yellow portions that are left uncut in lower grade saffron. However, Pure saffron strands are composed of red and yellow portions of the stigma rather than the entirely red portions of the stigma because saffron strands composed of red and yellow portions of the stigma shows that it is not dyed.</span></span></p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;"><br /></span><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">The fragrance in saffron is due to the presence of certain chemicals namely picrocrocin and safranal. Saffron loses its fragrance over time. So, red saffron that is ten years old is not good saffron. Quality saffron is saffron that is completely red and has a nice aroma. The best quality saffron comes from the current crop year that has a sweet, floral taste.</span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">Today, more than 80% of the saffron comes from Iran and Spain, while Morocco and Kashmir also cultivate and export the spice.The quality of saffron may be tested by adding a few strands to warm water. Saffron initially imparts a pale yellow colour to water, ultimately turning it into a rich and vibrant red. However, if the water instantly turns a strong yellow color, chances are that the saffron strands have been dyed with artificial color.</span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEisE4pmJOFk3QyFW0YEmUoBZfeA1ueluznakIFsp27yZRFzEdaR6y_O1VENCN4KB-6Rbde6NZyA94B7dqoc8f6CQkS21be9ur2ATfdnujiyHORYoPoMnlEFPSECBKW35un97r5spLnlzYJkPeuJHZPLfRNVWF5KUhxun4A7EtC3FbxNNGVK9kjfNKZL3w=s2048" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Saffron" border="0" data-original-height="1365" data-original-width="2048" height="213" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEisE4pmJOFk3QyFW0YEmUoBZfeA1ueluznakIFsp27yZRFzEdaR6y_O1VENCN4KB-6Rbde6NZyA94B7dqoc8f6CQkS21be9ur2ATfdnujiyHORYoPoMnlEFPSECBKW35un97r5spLnlzYJkPeuJHZPLfRNVWF5KUhxun4A7EtC3FbxNNGVK9kjfNKZL3w=w320-h213" title="Saffron" width="320" /></a></span></div><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">Europeans are believed to be the first to use saffron as a spice in their cooking.

There are various varieties of peppercorns, They are the small berries which are dried and crushed to make pepper. <b><i><span style="color: #3d85c6;">For instance, Lampong:Indonesian origin, Sarawak: Malaysian origin, Malabar and Telicherry: Indian origin, Talamanca: Ecuador origin</span></i></b>.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Pepper, the spice, comes from ground peppercorns. The pepper plant is native to humid tropical climates like India, Brazil, Indonesia, Ecuador. It has clusters of white flowers. The flowers in turn evolve into berries which are known as peppercorns. From these peppercorns we obtain pepper. If the berries are allowed to ripen before picking, the quality of the pepper goes up, this is the reason white pepper is more expensive than black!</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Peppercorns can be black, white or green although they come from the same plant. The difference in variety lies in the periods when they are harvested. For instance, To make black pepper, the clusters of peppercorns are plucked when they are not quite ripe or unripened. To make white pepper, the peppercorn is picked when fully ripe and its outer skin is removed by soaking in water until the outer black shell can be rubbed off while Green peppercorn are the green berries of the same plant which are usually pickled or preserved in brine or vinegar. When a black peppercorn is 4.25 mm or larger, it's "Tellicherry(Indian origin)." Which is the ripest and largest pepper with the fullest flavor! </span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Although white pepper is more spicy than black pepper, Black pepper has a more delicate flavour. High-quality peppercorns always have more fruit notes and spiciness. white pepper turns bitter and stale faster than black pepper. The main benefit of white peppercorns is it's ability to blend into with light-coloured dishes & sauces.</span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-lKkSrDqrQW0/YVrzGY9fT3I/AAAAAAAAO40/5tBAZskXt68TDeCl7QcUjqai1kkH6B3RACLcBGAsYHQ/s2048/antioxidant-1552325.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1536" data-original-width="2048" height="240" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-lKkSrDqrQW0/YVrzGY9fT3I/AAAAAAAAO40/5tBAZskXt68TDeCl7QcUjqai1kkH6B3RACLcBGAsYHQ/s320/antioxidant-1552325.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-pN6RhFTcf38/YVrzG7NU8ZI/AAAAAAAAO44/IPGS4MoAL48d8ZKuGeonO4PlIhd75mxPgCLcBGAsYHQ/s2048/peppercorns-3061211.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1354" data-original-width="2048" height="212" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-pN6RhFTcf38/YVrzG7NU8ZI/AAAAAAAAO44/IPGS4MoAL48d8ZKuGeonO4PlIhd75mxPgCLcBGAsYHQ/s320/peppercorns-3061211.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><p></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Pepper adds pleasant heat and crunchy texture to foods. It is a great way to bring out the natural flavors of beef, chicken, chops, fish, vegetables, soups, salads, and omelette. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Black pepper is used predominantly in Asian and South Asian cuisines. It is also a key ingredient in various dishes to create a specific flavour. White pepper, on the other hand, is chiefly added in light colour, European dishes or white or cream based gravies and curries. The pungent taste of black pepper beautifully compliments the flavor of any red meat especially venison(games) and steak.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Pepper has a tendency to loose its flavour and aroma if cooked for too long, hence it is always advised to add it near the end in order to leave its flavor intact. We should Store peppercorns at room temperature. Once it has been ground into powder, store it in an airtight container. Darker peppercorns are more flavourful. Remember, whole peppercorns can be stored in a cool, dark place for up to a year while ground pepper for up to four months. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">The peppercorn is abundant in Vitamin A, B and Vitamin C.

Only sparkling wine made in this region is legally allowed to be called Champagne. Champagne region lies in northern region of France, near to the Paris. </span></span></p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><br /></span><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">The most common story on its origin is that a monk with the name of Pérignon introduced bubbles into the wine by mistake. However, he then went on to clarify and improve the drink dramatically and it came to be liked by French aristocracy, who then popularized it. Champagne is u</span></span><span style="font-family: Montserrat; white-space: pre-wrap;">sed to toasts at engagements, birthdays and weddings.

If it is manufactured anywhere else in the world, it is known as sparkling wine. </span></span><span style="font-family: Montserrat; white-space: pre-wrap;">Champagne has a very distinct taste and texture that you only get from Champagne region. Every single grape they need to make their champagne is bought from this champagne area throughout the world.

Most Champagne wines are a blend of all three or individual ones. (A white grape - Chardonnay and two black grapes - Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier). If you know these three name it will cover 99% of all champagne that is made and If you're thinking how you can make white champagne from black grapes don't forget that when the grape is pressed, the juice is always colourless, even if the grape skin is black.</span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-I7AqIqoazEQ/YU8yqwj6psI/AAAAAAAAOzw/n_OLRTtoRqcsrix3C8_5RgkhTP_lPKoVACLcBGAsYHQ/s1920/champagne-29931.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1920" data-original-width="1414" height="320" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-I7AqIqoazEQ/YU8yqwj6psI/AAAAAAAAOzw/n_OLRTtoRqcsrix3C8_5RgkhTP_lPKoVACLcBGAsYHQ/s320/champagne-29931.png" width="236" /></a></span></div><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><br /></span></span><p></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">To make true Champagne, a special process known as 'méthod champenoise' is used which is the traditional French method for creating bubbles in the wine. Even if this process is used in other parts of the world, their product should still be referred to as sparkling wine rather than champagne if grapes from champagne vineyards are not used. There's not much difference between sparkling wine and champagne because <b><i><span style="color: #3d85c6;">all champagne is sparkling wine but all sparkling wine is </span></i></b></span></span><b style="font-family: Montserrat; white-space: pre-wrap;"><i><span style="color: #3d85c6;">not champagne. </span></i></b></p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><br /></span><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">There are Six different types of champagne and they are Brut, Extra Dry, Sec Champagne, Demi-Sec, doux champagne & rose champagne.</span></span></p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><br /></span><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Brut is the driest of all the champagnes and is never sweetened. Top brands such as Moet & Chandon and Bollinger all have their own varieties of Brut champagne. </span></span><span style="font-family: Montserrat; white-space: pre-wrap;">Extra Dry champagne is the next one up on the scale of sweetness. This type of champagne is slightly sweeter than Brut and therefore not as dry. Sec champagne is classified as slightly sweet champagne and is made using grapes from different vines. Demi-Sec is slightly sweeter than Sec and the sweetest champagne available is known as Doux champagne. This Doux champagne is not as popular and therefore may be harder to find.</span></p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;"><br /></span><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Remember "Brut" is the driest of champagnes with almost no residual sugars. Extra Brut, Brut, Extra Dry and Dry are the four different levels of dryness you can get and these "Dry" champagne are sweeter. Don't get confused with it.</span></span></p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><br /></span><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">In more recent years, the popularity of rosé champagne has significantly increased due to its sweet and fruity taste. Rosé champagne is made using grapes from pinot noir or chardonnay grapes. Some champagne producers will simply add a touch of pinot noir to the champagne in order to give it the taste required. </span></span></p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><br /></span><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Champagne should be served in Champagne flutes. A flute is a slim glass which tapers slightly inwards towards the top. This helps in containing/holding the bubbles for a longer period of time and hence, allows you to enjoy your Champagne to the fullest. If you don't use taller and narrow glass then the trapped air bubble will be released soon and may affect the flavour.</span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-2ivRrC2FtVI/YU8zQDumpQI/AAAAAAAAO0Q/2Yiez3MZ6Hoav0z4RIFuEpkWs-nqQ0bowCLcBGAsYHQ/s2048/male-2386409.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="2048" height="320" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-2ivRrC2FtVI/YU8zQDumpQI/AAAAAAAAO0Q/2Yiez3MZ6Hoav0z4RIFuEpkWs-nqQ0bowCLcBGAsYHQ/s320/male-2386409.jpg" width="320" /></a></span></div><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><br /></span></span><p></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Champagne is usually stored at 55 degree Fahrenheit in a dark damp location. You must chill the Champagne for a few hours to bring the temperature down to 45 degree Fahrenheit before serving. The best way to chill champagne is not in the freezer, but rather in the refrigerator for cou</span></span><span style="font-family: Montserrat; white-space: pre-wrap;">ple of days. You should never allow the temperature to rise above 75 degrees at all costs or else taste and flavours will be affected. Champagne should also not be refrigerated more than two or three days before it is intended to be used.</span></p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><br /></span><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Champagne goes well with cheese. Brut champagne goes extremely well with any type of cheese. Try some aged and hardened cheeses like parmesan or cheddar. If you're having blanc de blanc champagne, it's recommended that you try it out with some goat cheese. Champagne also goes well with Risotto or pasta. Any type of mushroom meal will go exceptionally well with brut champagne.</span></span></p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><br /></span><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Other exceptional combinations are champagne with french fries, fried chicken and pizza. The mixture of seafood and champagne is rapidly becoming well-liked. Finally, meat also goes extremely well with champagne. Poultry and game birds especially go well with roses, but so do white meats like ham, veal, lamb or pork. Desserts which are not extremely sweet, like tarts, pound cake, cherries, or any desserts that consist of lemon, are the ideal mixture for demi-sec champagne while Chocolate could be consumed with extra-dry or demi-sec.</span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-JjjD_ekSADM/YU8zEI-__rI/AAAAAAAAO0I/lkIh3IiKecQYFWfmVhDmO3Crp4lQXsQQQCLcBGAsYHQ/s2048/bottle-2147806.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1363" data-original-width="2048" height="213" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-JjjD_ekSADM/YU8zEI-__rI/AAAAAAAAO0I/lkIh3IiKecQYFWfmVhDmO3Crp4lQXsQQQCLcBGAsYHQ/s320/bottle-2147806.jpg" width="320" /></a></span></div><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-F_l9MJjvD2I/YU8zEFivMKI/AAAAAAAAO0M/aHx3mDFgDvQ87PGwJF0jtBhcXUsbe0y0ACLcBGAsYHQ/s2048/drinks-1283608.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1365" data-original-width="2048" height="213" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-F_l9MJjvD2I/YU8zEFivMKI/AAAAAAAAO0M/aHx3mDFgDvQ87PGwJF0jtBhcXUsbe0y0ACLcBGAsYHQ/s320/drinks-1283608.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-o7AGt0173nw/YU8zELHJL7I/AAAAAAAAO0E/jbPnM-gqCeE7mSf_WUAICpEIGvAR1kyCwCLcBGAsYHQ/s2048/gleser-1773731.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1365" data-original-width="2048" height="213" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-o7AGt0173nw/YU8zELHJL7I/AAAAAAAAO0E/jbPnM-gqCeE7mSf_WUAICpEIGvAR1kyCwCLcBGAsYHQ/s320/gleser-1773731.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><br /></span></span><p></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;"><b>How to serve champagne? </b></span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">First, wipe off the bottle of champagne with a clean towel until it is clean and stain free. </span></span></li></ul><p></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Place the un-opened bottle in a wine bucket, full of ice.</span></span></li></ul><p></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Present the clean bottle to the customer by holding it on a clean, folded napkin.

They work by circulating extremely hot air around the food and do not need fat or oil. You can add a very small amount, a teaspoon to improve taste if you wish.

If you want to preserve the old oil and make more use of it then it's best that you remove the remains from the oil and use it again, but it's a good idea to change the oil after every two to three days.</span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-4e9_j4KCA7w/YUScc93o2XI/AAAAAAAAOwE/C3OE3cbEouIKVZWzqn-oabImDK395pmvQCLcBGAsYHQ/s2048/batter-1239024.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1412" data-original-width="2048" height="221" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-4e9_j4KCA7w/YUScc93o2XI/AAAAAAAAOwE/C3OE3cbEouIKVZWzqn-oabImDK395pmvQCLcBGAsYHQ/s320/batter-1239024.jpg" width="320" /></a></span></div><p></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-weight: 700; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Make Your Batter Better</span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-weight: 700; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><br /></span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Having a perfect batter for your food is quite important for having a better tasting meal, but the question is how the batter will determine that your fried food is going to be a greasy mess or a healthy treat?</span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><br /></span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Many people make use of all-purpose flour for their batter. All-purpose flour is a good option as it contains gluten that helps it stick to the food really well, however it can absorb a lot of oil. So instead of using all-purpose flour, try using gluten free ingredients, such as rice flour in your batter.</span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><br /></span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-weight: 700; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Make Use Of Baking Soda Or Carbonated Liquid</span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-weight: 700; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><br /></span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Another famous way for improving the quality of the fried battered foods is to make use of baking soda or carbonated liquid in the batter. How it helps your food in cooking is that it releases gas bubbles while cooking so the food doesn't absorb a lot of oil.</span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><br /></span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-weight: 700; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Maintain The Oil Temperature</span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-weight: 700; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><br /></span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">One thing where many people make mistakes while preparing a healthy fried dish is they don't really maintain the temperature of the oil.

If you keep cooking it too hot, it will cause the oil to burn and create smoke, which will make your food taste horrible and it is also a huge risk.</span></span></p><p><br /></p>Deepanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16232576430932848586noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1336140491243447835.post-59757278456318269172021-09-15T14:29:00.003+05:452021-09-15T14:29:29.293+05:45How To Find Your Career In Hotel Industry?<p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;"><b><u>How To Find Your Career In Hotel Industry</u>?</b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;"></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-BnRdiUgKu5s/YUGxgtMardI/AAAAAAAAOts/qrRgFkWhE7EFCEq8NhYT3psAhdQ1cPbJgCLcBGAsYHQ/s2048/hotel-2336469.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1472" data-original-width="2048" height="230" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-BnRdiUgKu5s/YUGxgtMardI/AAAAAAAAOts/qrRgFkWhE7EFCEq8NhYT3psAhdQ1cPbJgCLcBGAsYHQ/s320/hotel-2336469.jpg" width="320" /></a></span></div><p></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">The hotel industry is part of the hospitality industry along with the Travel and Tourism Industry. Hotel jobs range from housekeeping, Food and beverage service to Front office and Food production department. Beside it, there are other huge job vacancies in functional departments like Accounting and Finance department, Human resources department, sales and Marketing e.t.c.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">Finding the best employers in the hotel industry may change your life forever. It may provide, both, an attractive salary and good career growth by ensuring your work-life balance! But, it's really hard to find the best employers as the majority of the hotel industry will be exploiting your labour, which is a very common practice in the hotel industry of developing countries where you will be confined to work for 12-18 hours a day without a week off at a penny salary!</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">Your preference should always be to work at places which value you, your work, Your working hours and more importantly your passion. Though there is some tough competition to get recruited in the renowned hotels, the process is not challenging when you have a positive attitude and passion to learn new things.</span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-vtrW2SUOPrs/YUGxuu4Y4GI/AAAAAAAAOt0/6wQYpY9qHJce3M2gTpT1LI5TFwfVoKIcwCLcBGAsYHQ/s2048/sunrise-432349.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1536" data-original-width="2048" height="240" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-vtrW2SUOPrs/YUGxuu4Y4GI/AAAAAAAAOt0/6wQYpY9qHJce3M2gTpT1LI5TFwfVoKIcwCLcBGAsYHQ/s320/sunrise-432349.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><p></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">First of all, Start as an apprentice. One of the best way is to just apply for an opening and learn on the job. The advantage with this is that you can save years that would have been spent going for a degree to study. However this will hamper your career in the long run as new opportunities and career growth will stop after a certain time. I will recommend this to you, If you are a good learner, low in budget and are seriously considering a career in the industry it is well worth it. Or else, you can get a Diploma or degree in hotel management and apply for an apprenticeship. There are many nationally and internationally recognised courses that you can do that are relevant to the hotel industry. More specifically there are colleges that specialise in hospitality courses and even offer placements after the training. This is very useful as it can save you the time and effort needed in looking for a job.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">You just need to submit an application after your degree. There are many best hotels across the globe and many new ones coming up every year. If you want a hotel job it is good to send your Resume/Curriculum Vitae to the different hotels available in your country and let friends and family working in hotels know that you are looking for a hotel job. And it will be even much easier for you to find a hotel job if you have already worked in some area of the hotel industry and have qualifications or competencies. After that you need to answer few basic queries in interview. Don't worry for interview as they will ask you some basic knowledge about the department you want to work for.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">They may ask you mainly about the department you are looking to work for, your job duties and responsibilities, basic introduction, experience and reason for leaving the previous job, work place hazards, How to make it successful department. They will check your positivity, attitude, willingness to learn and more importantly try to see respect for your job. Believe me, those interviewers are professional expert who had been hiring People since decades so, they can judge you, recognise your skill and talents in one look!</span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-BYv0npnlcgI/YUGx9QJhKVI/AAAAAAAAOt8/vK9NBl66iawMBnxvqNQRqM_IvslfXsNkgCLcBGAsYHQ/s2048/chef-3975835.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1362" data-original-width="2048" height="213" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-BYv0npnlcgI/YUGx9QJhKVI/AAAAAAAAOt8/vK9NBl66iawMBnxvqNQRqM_IvslfXsNkgCLcBGAsYHQ/s320/chef-3975835.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><p></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">But remember, only a resume can't get you a job. Like I told you earlier, you need a lot of passion. A lot of your colleagues will be trying to pull your leg and Kick behind your Ass. You will see it very often if you work for a hotel management college or hotel industry. There you will see people around you who are just jealous of you because of your degree and because you are better than them!! Even I have faced this in my career when working and Teaching for reputed hotels and hotel management colleges ( I will not name them ). you need to have passion to handle all criticism and should take it as a compliment without losing your focus.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">Before working for the hotel industry, I recommend you to Make lists with things you enjoy in life, your interests, your hobbies, your passions. Do they match with your job? Then ask your friends or family. What do they think about you doing it? Your success, career? Very often, we do not have a very clear idea of what we like in life, as we are very much "into it". Our closest people, though, can help us by identifying areas, hang-ups or paths we ignore or are unable to see. Just give it a go, play around, ask people and move on. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">By the end of your research, you will know, for example, that if you are the person who enjoys working on your own, prefers an unstructured lifestyle, loves travelling and dealing with new people, loves to see a cosmopolitan, is hardworking, has patience and passion, works well at night, is creative and innovative, has great hospitality skills etc.Then, a career in the Hotel industry might not sound like a bad idea.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">The biggest mistake we do is, very often, we think we like everything. We like movies, books, Aeroplanes, hotels, schools and restaurants. We want to join the industry what we like. This does not imply that we would work in any job which we like. Enjoying a nice meal at your local restaurant does not necessarily make you a successful cook. Your love for children does not make you a happy and wise teacher, either. Finding the industry of your choice will require constant research and clear mind otherwise it may end up constantly winding your career and never finding your destination/your purpose of life. </span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-lkIWnYHqBXI/YUGyNoe65SI/AAAAAAAAOuI/AW2I7-WX0ewBErCrt3i90uaC3e5N82efgCLcBGAsYHQ/s1920/kitchen-2853391.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1080" data-original-width="1920" height="180" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-lkIWnYHqBXI/YUGyNoe65SI/AAAAAAAAOuI/AW2I7-WX0ewBErCrt3i90uaC3e5N82efgCLcBGAsYHQ/s320/kitchen-2853391.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">Last but not least the most important element is to find out who you are, not just what you want to do. Just recognize your uniqueness and authenticity, and move on. Finding the hotel job you want is the first step, Then doing this job for a whole life, It is important too!!</span><p></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p><br /></p>Deepanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16232576430932848586noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1336140491243447835.post-71652582777496491382021-09-12T16:39:00.003+05:452021-09-12T16:39:20.712+05:45Introduction To Customer Relationship Management<p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"><u><b>Introduction To Customer Relationship Management</b></u></span></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;"></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Sys_dvpxFpI/YT3bfcYld2I/AAAAAAAAOq8/KHTCPa7XtjIGEONxoM-cIZUn0kZTSmzUQCLcBGAsYHQ/s2048/question-679997.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1481" data-original-width="2048" height="231" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Sys_dvpxFpI/YT3bfcYld2I/AAAAAAAAOq8/KHTCPa7XtjIGEONxoM-cIZUn0kZTSmzUQCLcBGAsYHQ/s320/question-679997.jpg" width="320" /></a></span></div><p></p><p><b><i><span style="color: #3d85c6;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">Do you know multi-national companies across the world are investing billions of dollars annually to create a solid customer Relationship base?

You can ask for the visitor's e-mail address before they buy anything from you by offering something for free to make them sign up and when you have a list of email addresses you can send out information about your products. The visitors that have left your website will now get information from you and will maybe come back to buy later if your product is a market success. You can also send free information to build a good relationship which will also help you to get feedback on a regular basis. In every industry Feedback can be converted into opportunities as It will help to initiate required change. Similarly, it's also the best way for customer relation improvement along with retention.</span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">Thus, Implementing an effective and efficient customer relationship management system is the best way to increase consumer confidence in your product or service and stay in touch with your customers, thereby increasing the effectiveness of your product or service.</span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></span></p><br />Deepanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16232576430932848586noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1336140491243447835.post-71660434178700266032021-09-08T08:02:00.002+05:452021-09-08T08:02:46.164+05:45White wine - A Depth Guide<p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;"><b>White wine - A Depth Guide</b></span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-pO7Ior_x3MY/YTY3bR1JSRI/AAAAAAAAOn0/obKXBi27dhMGUd8vbIEZUFRj6Oj7PT-HgCLcBGAsYHQ/s2048/white-wine-1761575.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1367" data-original-width="2048" height="214" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-pO7Ior_x3MY/YTY3bR1JSRI/AAAAAAAAOn0/obKXBi27dhMGUd8vbIEZUFRj6Oj7PT-HgCLcBGAsYHQ/s320/white-wine-1761575.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><p></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">White wines are always made from white grapes, although they can also be made from black grapes (juice of black grapes is clear) the skins of the grapes needs to be separated from the juice. White wines are crisp, fruity and refreshing and can be enjoyed by themselves or paired with a wide variety of foods.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">As for white wine food pairing, it's excellent for poultry and Asian food. It also pairs great with seafood, such as mussels and shellfish. You can also pair it with certain appetizers. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">A golden rules i will suggest you is always <span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">Pair Food rich in protein with tannic wines. They combine well and decrease the tannin taste. If you were to drink tannic wine with a seafood dish you might notice bitterness with salty food. Since, white wine don't have tannins or have very less tannins (as it is found in grapes skin and seed), white wines go very well with Seafood and white Meat. </span></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;"><b>The most popular white wines available are:</b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;"><b>1. Chardonnay (shar-dun-NAY)</b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">While Cabernet sauvignon is the king of red wine grapes, Chardonnay can be regarded as the king of white wine grapes. Chardonnay grapes were originated in the Burgundy region of France. Today, Chardonnay are grown in countries like Argentina, Australia, South Africa and Chile. Chardonnay is one of the best-selling wines in the world. Chardonnay wines can be described as oaky (from the barrel aging), buttery, and can also develop some citrus or melon flavours.</span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-7SX8zGdGrtk/YTY3i5mzUFI/AAAAAAAAOn4/HDJXqEUI7UIJBnl-Cm8WO4U8vTw4IbvEwCLcBGAsYHQ/s2048/white-wine-3185546.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1984" data-original-width="2048" height="310" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-7SX8zGdGrtk/YTY3i5mzUFI/AAAAAAAAOn4/HDJXqEUI7UIJBnl-Cm8WO4U8vTw4IbvEwCLcBGAsYHQ/s320/white-wine-3185546.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><p></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;"><b>2. Riesling (REES-ling)</b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">Originated in the Rhine region of Germany, Riesling is an aromatic grape that displays a flowery, apple-like aroma. It is a very popular wine from Germany. The flavours range from sweet to dry and generally described as fruity. Many people think of Riesling as a very sweet wine, but, in fact, Riesling can take varying levels of sweetness from dry to very sweet. It is not aged in oak and is typically low in alcohol content and high in acidity. It is also light and refreshing.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;"><b>3. Sauvignon Blanc (SO-vin-yon BLAHNK)</b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">Another popular variety generally described as light and crisp. Sauvignon Blanc is a refreshing wine that generally does not benefit from aging and is consumed as a young wine. This wine pairs easily with most light fare - considered a food friendly wine. Sauvignon Blanc grapes produce wines that are high in acidity with very noticeable flavours of hay, grass and herbs.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;"><b>4. Pinot Grigio (PEE-no GREE)</b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">It is known as Pinot Grigio (PEE-no GREE-zo) in Italy and France, and as Pinot Gris in the United States. It is thought to be a mutant clone of the Pinot noir (a red grape varietal). This wine is acidic, with a silky smooth taste that can be described as melon or pear or citrus flavours. This grape is actually purplish in colour. Even so, they produce one of the best white wines. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;"><b>5. Chenin Blanc - (SHEN'N BLAHNK)</b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">Chenin Blanc is a white wine grape variety originated from the Loire Valley of France. It is also widely cultivated in South Africa where it is known as 'Steen'. Chenin Blanc is one of the most versatile grapes that can be used to produce a great variety of wines.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">Originally from France, versatile grape produces highly acidic gold coloured wines. It is a great seafood wine. </span></p><p><b><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">What's So difference between Red And white Wines?</span></b></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">Wine is traditionally classified into two types: Red and White Wine. The brewing of both types includes the fermentation of grapes with yeast in order to form alcohol.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">White wine is differentiated from red, by the fact before processing the grapes, their skins are peeled off due to which there is least or no tannins in white wine (</span><span style="background-color: white; color: #1f1f1f;"><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">White grapes juice is generally removed from the skins immediately, while red grapes’ juice macerates with the stems, skins, and seeds, extracting phenols and tannins from these grape components. Therefore, white wines level of tannin is generally much lower)</span></span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-pDn6t4nkBdo/YTY3r7qsAII/AAAAAAAAOoA/Z5vMCF9m6ekOP3GARY4zsPbSTJ4yWp2mQCLcBGAsYHQ/s2048/wine-1717650-1.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1365" data-original-width="2048" height="213" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-pDn6t4nkBdo/YTY3r7qsAII/AAAAAAAAOoA/Z5vMCF9m6ekOP3GARY4zsPbSTJ4yWp2mQCLcBGAsYHQ/s320/wine-1717650-1.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">The grapes for quality white wine are picked at night because at that time, the acids within the grape are in abundance, hence maximizing the crisp flavour associated with the best white wine.</span><p></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;"><b>Is white wine beneficial?</b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">White wines do not boost of the same health benefits of their red wine due to the absence of the antioxidant compounds present in the grape skins and seeds. But they have lesser amount of tannins and alcohol, thus, making it very light and easy to enjoy.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;">However, white wine contains higher levels of flavonoids, a group of plant substances known for their antioxidant activity, which soaks up the toxins in the blood, reducing inflammation of the capillaries. Thus, it may helps to protect the lungs and heal it.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p><br /></p>Deepanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16232576430932848586noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1336140491243447835.post-84816662510844371802021-09-03T20:19:00.001+05:452021-09-03T20:19:54.561+05:45Red Wine - A Depth Guide<p><span style="font-family: Montserrat; font-size: large;"><b>Red Wine - A Depth Guide</b></span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-K6XcR2ALqFo/YTIxFhSfSDI/AAAAAAAAOks/BHNHT5qhTXsMaqpvgU0Lee77J8Xs5lJMACLcBGAsYHQ/s2048/wine-1717650.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1365" data-original-width="2048" height="213" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-K6XcR2ALqFo/YTIxFhSfSDI/AAAAAAAAOks/BHNHT5qhTXsMaqpvgU0Lee77J8Xs5lJMACLcBGAsYHQ/s320/wine-1717650.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">If you're a lover of red wine, but you don't know how it's made? what to choose? which red wine for a particular season? Food pairs? storage? health benefits? or what varieties there are? then this article will shed light on it. It is beneficial to gain some knowledge on red wine as wine is part of our life. </span><p></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">The grape skin gives red wine it's distinct colour. Red wine is made from either red or black grapes, with the skin left intact during the fermentation process called maceration. The longer the skin is left on the grape, the deeper red it will result in. Rose wine is a pink colored wine, because the skin is only left on the grape for a short period of time. An individual wine's colour depends largely on what type of grape was used to make it and how long the skin was left in with the juice before being extracted.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">There are many different types of red wine but they are usually judged by their "body." For example, a light-bodied wine is not too demanding on the mouth and taste buds. It goes well with food that is flavor intensive.</span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-cJTBDPqfm58/YTIxRxXAypI/AAAAAAAAOkw/aipr6rqONDkS5uvSrs5sSM-p3Lf4Z0xgwCLcBGAsYHQ/s2048/still-life-2905834.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1365" data-original-width="2048" height="213" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-cJTBDPqfm58/YTIxRxXAypI/AAAAAAAAOkw/aipr6rqONDkS5uvSrs5sSM-p3Lf4Z0xgwCLcBGAsYHQ/s320/still-life-2905834.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">On the other hand, there is the medium-bodied red wine which is a slightly heavier wine (e.g. Shiraz, Merlot, etc.) but not as heavy and as powerful as a full-bodied wine like French Bordeaux wines. Full-bodied wines are denser and have a higher alcohol content. </span><p></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Red wine may be sweet, dry or fruity. The dry wines have very little residual sugar, whereas the sweeter red wines have a sweeter taste, and are considered dessert wines. The following wine list can help you determine which wine goes best with your meal, and is one method of classifying your wine:</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b><u>Merlot (mur-LO)</u></b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">This is a versatile wine that can be paired with a wide variety of foods such as red meats, poultry and even salads. It goes well with pasta dishes served with red sauce, lamb or prime rib. In recent years, Merlot has soared in popularity.</span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-tBInCfRzlM8/YTIxbUlZ7bI/AAAAAAAAOk4/o_YoJjEirmwHBR-xqVT1Psf47UH-bFCNQCLcBGAsYHQ/s2048/wine-1412606.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1346" data-original-width="2048" height="210" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-tBInCfRzlM8/YTIxbUlZ7bI/AAAAAAAAOk4/o_YoJjEirmwHBR-xqVT1Psf47UH-bFCNQCLcBGAsYHQ/s320/wine-1412606.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b><u>Cabernet Sauvignon (cab-er-NAY SO-vin-yon)</u></b></span><p></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Cabernet sauvignon is one of the world's best varieties and is commonly known as the king of the red wines. This is produced from grapes originally grown in the Bordeaux region of France. Cabernets can be full-bodied or medium-bodied and have high tannin content. They are best served with foods such as red meats, hearty red pastas, strong-flavored cheese, lamb and dark chocolate. It also goes well with beef dishes, such as stroganoff or steak and also with duck or salmon.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b><u>Pinot Noir (PEE-no NWA)</u></b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Being known as the noblest red wine grape, pinot noir is extremely difficult to grow. However, when conditions are correct it often produces an exceptional wine with great complexity and flavours. This wine is produced from Pinot Noir grapes grown in the vineyards of Burgundy in France. Since these grapes are difficult to grow, Pinot Noir is produced in smaller quantities and is thus more expensive than other wines. This wine is well-paired with various types of meats such as beef, lamb and poultry. It also goes well with pork, turkey and soft cheeses such as brie or camembert.</span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-P1NhXQMU-OQ/YTIxnEoPr7I/AAAAAAAAOlA/dy_fhqZIX1QJn6UrM9iwsF6izN_Be2TqACLcBGAsYHQ/s2048/red-wine-456434.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1367" data-original-width="2048" height="214" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-P1NhXQMU-OQ/YTIxnEoPr7I/AAAAAAAAOlA/dy_fhqZIX1QJn6UrM9iwsF6izN_Be2TqACLcBGAsYHQ/s320/red-wine-456434.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b><u>Shiraz/Syrah (sih-RAH)</u></b></span><p></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">It is known as Shiraz in Australia and South Africa, and as Syrah in California and France. These are full-bodied wines produced from a grape interchangeably known as Sirah or Syrah depending on the place where it is grown. These wines are made in the US and France under the name of Syrah while Sirah is used in other regions such as Australia, Italy and Portugal. This wine is a deep red in colour and is often served with food such as beef or wild game as well as with dark chocolate. These wines taste like blackberry. They go well with tenderloins, onion soup, or BBQ ribs and roasts.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b><u>Sangiovese (san-geeo-VEHS-eh)</u></b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Sangiovese is the signature red wine grape of the Tuscany region of Italy. It has a medium body with fresh berry and plum flavours. Although it is enjoyable as a varietal wine, it is often blended with Carbernet Sauvignon to build upon its flavor.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b><u>Barbera (bar-BEHR-uh)</u></b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Though not as popular, Barbera is a classic red of Italian origin that has similar attributes with Merlot. It is chiefly grown in the Piedmont region of Italy and is also widespread in California. It has a silky texture and excellent acidity, with rich flavors of juicy black cherry and plum.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b><u>Zinfandel (ZIHM-fan-dell)</u></b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Of all the grape varieties, Zinfandel is perhaps the world's most versatile one, making everything from blush white wines to heavy rich red wines. It is one of the oldest grapes to be grown in California, and most always in California. A red zinfandel has low to moderate acidity and medium to full body. It is known for its rich colour scheme, high tannin level and high alcohol content. The typical taste of zinfandel is often a zesty flavor with berries, spice and black pepper.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>Which wines pairs the season?</b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">1. <b>Winter</b>: It is not so much that certain red wines taste better in the winter, but rather that they taste better with what you eat in the winter. Winter meals are best accompanied with full bodied, spicy Shiraz and Syrah red wines. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">2. <b>Summer</b>: Pairing red wines with grilled food is easy. First, consider how hearty the food is - steak, burgers, sausages taste better with red wines. Fish, chicken, and artichokes typically taste better with white wines. After you narrow it down to red wines or white wines, think about the marinade. </span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-iFkE2Xijvpk/YTIxyb4dPzI/AAAAAAAAOlI/5Pl-xKpvSU8i-A7j7yO-OxguXFSc7FD9ACLcBGAsYHQ/s2048/grapes-1618306-1.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="1495" height="320" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-iFkE2Xijvpk/YTIxyb4dPzI/AAAAAAAAOlI/5Pl-xKpvSU8i-A7j7yO-OxguXFSc7FD9ACLcBGAsYHQ/s320/grapes-1618306-1.jpg" width="234" /></a></div><p></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">3. <b>Fall</b>: Fuller-bodied, richer wines go well with the heavy flavours of fall food, gamy meats especially. Syrahs are good reds to choose for fall.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">4. <b>Spring</b>: Grassy and herbaceous white wines like Sauvignon blanc are perfect for when you're gearing up for warmer temperatures.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>Do you know why red wines ages better than white and are aged?</b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">It is the tannin which gives the smell of wine in your mouth. Over time, the qualities of the tannin will mellow and blend harmoniously with the other characteristics of the wine. This is one of the main reasons that red wines usually age better than whites.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b><u>Health Benefits of Red Wine</u></b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>It helps with sleep</b> - while people are usually cautioned about alcohol actually interfering with sleep, red wine which contains a key ingredient called melatonin can help with sleep. This anti-oxidant helps to regulate one's internal clock and besides helping with sleep, melatonin can also help to prevent cancer.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>It is good for the heart </b>- consuming moderate amounts of red wine can do a number of good things for the heart. Because it contains antioxidants called flavonoids, drinking red wine can raise HDL levels, which is the good cholesterol that everyone wants; it can also lower LDL levels, which is often described as bad cholesterol. Drinking red wine can also act as a blood thinner which can prevent dangerous clotting.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>It may reduce the risk of disease</b> - as mentioned, red wine contains antioxidants that are not only good for the heart but for the rest of the body as well. Antioxidants can actually repair cells that have been damaged by free radicals and can reduce the risk of diseases such as diabetes, macular degeneration and certain types of cancer.</span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-AsBZvO25WgI/YTIx8bRiAQI/AAAAAAAAOlQ/eec9IpaSRMA6DdHVhMHxWGSWaMq5j8lMgCLcBGAsYHQ/s2048/red-wine-2443699.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1365" data-original-width="2048" height="213" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-AsBZvO25WgI/YTIx8bRiAQI/AAAAAAAAOlQ/eec9IpaSRMA6DdHVhMHxWGSWaMq5j8lMgCLcBGAsYHQ/s320/red-wine-2443699.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>It contains resveratrol</b> - of all the antioxidants, <b>resveratrol</b> is probably the one getting most of the attention. <b>Resveratrol</b> is found in the skin and seeds of grapes and can also help to prevent some types of cancer. But another benefit of this powerful antioxidant is that it can help reverse aging helping one to have increased longevity. <b>Resveratrol</b> may also help to prevent age-related disorders such as Alzheimer's disease and dementia. Men can benefit from drinking red wine because the <b>resveratrol</b> it contains may also help to prevent prostate cancer. In fact, some experts suggest that men who drink one glass of red wine a day can cut their chances of getting prostate cancer in half.</span><p></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>It can protect you from getting the flu -</b> research shows that by drinking a glass of wine a day, consumers of red wine can reduce their chances of getting influenza by 20 percent. Drinking red wine while you have a cold could also prove to be beneficial.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>It helps to calm the mind</b> - For some people it is common that after a hard day, the first thing they do upon coming home is open up a bottle of wine. This is because red wine is a natural tranquilizer and can help reduce stress and anxiety.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b><u>Nutritional Value</u></b></span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Red wine contains vitamins and minerals in small amounts, red wine does contain vitamins and minerals such as:</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>Potassium</b> : this mineral and electrolyte helps to regulate the heartbeat, aids in protein and nucleic acid synthesis, helps produce energy and convert blood sugar into glycogen.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>Fluoride</b> : this mineral can help prevent tooth decay, reduce risk of cavities and keeps tooth enamel strong.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>Phosphorous</b> : this mineral helps convert food into energy. Phosphorous also helps with kidney function, metabolism, cell growth and heart muscle contraction.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b>Choline</b> : this vitamin is part of the vitamin B family that helps to maintain overall good health. Choline may also help with memory function and is being used in Alzheimer's research.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">A few more benefits include providing energy, aids in digestion, stimulates the appetite and can help to restore nutritional balance.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">For most, drinking red wine can be a good thing. It is good to remember though that drinking more wine than the recommended amounts can have a reversed effect.</span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-vMANFyc9ZB8/YTIyHt60dLI/AAAAAAAAOlU/-c4b0V16sqIyvjoHMNe6zs7g6eKZYdx4ACLcBGAsYHQ/s2048/wine-6364057.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1504" data-original-width="2048" height="235" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-vMANFyc9ZB8/YTIyHt60dLI/AAAAAAAAOlU/-c4b0V16sqIyvjoHMNe6zs7g6eKZYdx4ACLcBGAsYHQ/s320/wine-6364057.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><b><u>Red wine serving Temperature</u></b></span><p></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">The best rule of thumb to use for red wines is to store them at a temperature between 50 and 60 degrees Fahrenheit and if temperatures approach 90 degrees wine can be easily damaged.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;">Most red wines should be served at room temperature, which means an average of 60 to 65 degrees Fahrenheit. If the wine is served too warm, the taste will be dominated by the alcohol and if it is served to cold, it will definitely be less flavorful. Red sweet should be served much colder than room temperature, about 45 degrees Fahrenheit. Lighter reds like Pinot Noir and Zinfandel should be served around 60 degrees Fahrenheit. Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, full bodied red wines, are best when served at 65 degrees Fahrenheit.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: Montserrat;"><br /></span></p><p><br /></p>Deepanhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16232576430932848586noreply@blogger.com0
