21.01.2022 In view of how quickly Christmas is approaching I thought I would share an extra recipe each week until the big day! Probiotic foods are important to aid digestion, protect from bloating or gas and also support your immune system as well as good gut health. You might like to add my Cultured Raspberry Relish to your Christmas table this year for a boost of probiotic goodness and to help with digesting the inevitable indulgences that happen during the silly season. Enjoy!...

19.01.2022 Learn a new skill over the holidays - start fermenting and improve the digestive health of the whole family. As fermentation is an anaerobic process ideally use jars that are airtight to create proper conditions for fermentation. Airlock jars allow the co2 and other gases that occur during fermentation to release through the airlock with a water barrier. Fermenting in these jars is especially helpful for people with weakened immune systems and gut issues as airborne bacteri...a and yeasts cannot enter during the fermentation process. This means cultured foods made in these types of jars are more easily tolerated by more sensitive individuals as they are more digestible. Just a tablespoon of organic raw sauerkraut with each meal can have a profound effect on gut health. My Red Seakraut is a great recipe for beginners and experienced fermenters alike. If you are new to eating cultured foods please start slowly with one teaspoon and gradually increase to 1 or 2 tablespoons with each meal to minimise any discomfort that could be caused by the rebalancing of your inner ecosystem. Cultured foods are meant to be enjoyed in small amounts as a condiment, rather than a meal replacement, due to their nutrient density and medicinal qualities. Enjoy!

17.01.2022 CALL TO ACTION: The Medical Board of Australia (MBA) is seeking public feedback on plans to tighten regulations on medical practitioners who provide complementary therapies and emerging treatments - placing patient choice at risk. If adopted, the MBA guidelines could see Integrative doctors unable to recommend vitamins, minerals, herbal supplements, natural therapies, diagnostic testing and other services not typically offered in conventional medical care. By framing them a...s fringe, the move is also set to impact the registered health professions of chiropractic, osteopathy, Chinese medicine and acupuncture. Weve made it easy for you to have your say. Click on the link below and let the MBA know why you value access to holistic healthcare and support doctors right to offer it. Together we succeeded in forcing government to re-examine policy on health fund rebates for natural therapies - LETS PROTECT RIGHT OF CHOICE HERE TOO! https://www.yourhealthyourchoice.com.au/mba-submissions/

16.01.2022 Who doesn’t love a lamb roast? Beautiful Mediterranean flavours that always hit the spot. If you’re like me and find legs of lamb too gamey in taste, a lamb shoulder is a great substitute. Roasts are often weekend fare, but if you get home early enough it’s a great mid-week meal and a great dish that you can pop in the oven and pretty much forget about, and it comes with a bonus of leftovers for lunch the following day. I often bake an extra tray of mixed vegetables at the sa...me time which I can add to other meals throughout the week. Enjoy!

15.01.2022 My Chicken Fajita Stir Fry is one of our favourite weeknight meals as it’s quick and easy to put together. It’s also perfect to substitute with whatever meat or veg is left in the fridge or spices in the pantry at the end of a busy week. It makes enough leftovers for school/work lunches the next day too. I love serving it with the sweet potato glass noodles but you could also do rice cooked in broth. These noodles are a great alternative to wheat pasta or noodles as they’re g...luten free, high in fibre and contain iron, calcium, potassium, B vitamins, vitamin C and selenium. They’re loaded with antioxidants such as carotenoids which convert to Vitamin A, so they defend your cells from day to day damage, keep your eyes healthy, boost your immune system and are protective of your heart and kidneys. They’re also rather adept at soaking up all the flavour from the sauce so are totally delicious! Enjoy!

15.01.2022 Hippocrates famous quote of ‘all disease begins in the gut’ continues to ring true as science has shown us the importance of gastrointestinal health, and as the root cause of many other health problems in the body. Our microbiome or inner ecosystem is now the target of much more research in the field. The gut is often referred to as the second brain, due to the fact that it shares very similar neurotransmitters to the brain. It’s important that we nurture the good bacteria in... our gut, as that will help crowd out the harmful bacteria which cause an imbalance and can result in dysbiosis. This is when the smooth lining of the GI tract becomes permeable and by allowing food proteins to enter the bloodstream, it activates the immune system which then causes inflammation. This can then lead to food sensitivities, malabsorption of vitamins and minerals, an inability to eliminate toxins, dysregulation of hormones and more obvious symptoms such as abdominal pain and bloating after meals as well as reflux. Apart from being responsible for our digestive and immune systems, the beneficial bacteria in our gut or lack thereof, can also influence our mental state with anxiety and depression, or create foggy thinking or memory problems. Fermented foods are eaten all over the world as part of traditional diets, and are powerhouses of probiotic nutrition. When we ferment or culture a food, the nutritional benefit is increased one hundred fold, and it becomes more bioavailable to the body. The bacteria predigest the food for us and break it down, so we can assimilate it more easily. The most common example of a fermented food is yoghurt, where a starter culture is added to milk. The good bacteria get to work and replicate and eat the sugars (lactose) which turns the milk sour. This is why fermented foods always taste tangy, as the bacteria use the sugars naturally found in the foods being cultured, as food for themselves. The culturing process significantly increases the levels of enzymes, organic acids, B complex vitamins, Vitamin C and Vitamin K. Adding a small amount of sauerkraut with each meal helps you to better digest and absorb the nutrients in your food. Fermented foods also strengthen the immune system and help eliminate toxins, reduce bloating and constipation and can control cravings, especially for sweet foods. The addition of foods and drinks rich in friendly lactobacilli bacteria and lactic acids can prevent or eliminate the growth of unfriendly bacteria or yeasts in the gut. As 80% of our immune system is housed in the gut it makes sense that an excess of pathogenic bacteria is now linked to many chronic diseases. When made correctly they are extremely safe. I always recommend that a starter culture is used as this will drop the pH quickly in the first 24 hours so that no moulds or other pathogens can grow.

14.01.2022 My mother has made these Greek Christmas Honey Macaroons (known as Melomakarona in Greek) for as long as I can remember and they’re my absolute favourite! It’s just not Christmas without them. Now it’s my turn They have their roots in Byzantine times and evolved from a piece of bread offered after funerals to honour the dead. These egg shaped macaroons were shared as early as 430BC to commemorate the first dead of the Peloponnesian war. These days they are more commonly eat...en during the 12 days of Christmas. As they are an authentic traditional treat, they are made with olive oil, oranges, walnuts, honey, cinnamon and cloves so are also antioxidant rich, dairy free, egg free and vegan too! They do contain flour and sugar but the fats in the olive oil balance the sweetness really well. Some recipes purporting to be traditional use vegetable/seed oils so beware of those as they are neither authentic or healthy! My macaroons are juicy and gooey, melt in your mouth, dripping in honey, crunchy with walnuts and totally addictive! Because they are so nutrient dense, just one usually hits the spot quite satisfyingly. They permeate the house with the most wonderful Christmas scent while they’re baking so you know you’re in for something special before you even take your first bite! So give these a go - you won’t be disappointed! Enjoy!

13.01.2022 A weekend recipe thats good for your gut as well as your skin. My Lime & Coconut Slice sings of Spring! I created this recipe with those of you in mind whose intolerances have created a rather restrictive diet because no one should miss out on cake! Its gluten free, dairy free, nut free and egg free. Ive found that replacing up to 3 eggs in a recipe with a nutrient dense beef gelatin powder works well to bind the ingredients and gives a lovely texture to the slice if... you cant tolerate flaxseed or chia seeds. Limes are a good source of magnesium and potassium and help to rejuvenate your skin, aid digestion and reduce inflammation. The pairing with coconut provides extra antioxidants and antimicrobial properties to further benefit the skin and gut as well as healthy fats to balance the sugars in this recipe. Beef gelatin has many beneficial amino acids which calm the nervous system and can help you fall asleep more easily as well as provide a more restful sleep overall. You can find all of the ingredients at Taste Organic Enjoy!

12.01.2022 Time to Spring Clean your life! Spring is a lovely reminder of how beautiful change can be! Now is the time to shake up your routine and try some new things. So, as part of my September series Ill be posting some ideas and inspiration for doing just that. Who doesnt love a good Spring clean to freshen up their home, especially when its low tox and environmentally friendly? We want to avoid chemicals in everyday household cleaning products but changin...g over to new products can be daunting as there are so many natural products out there rife with greenwashing and misinformation. For a deep dive into this area I highly recommend you read one of my favourite books on this subject @lowtoxlife by @alexxstuart Some of the better known chemicals to avoid are: phthalates (endocrine disruptors), triclosan (immune system antagonist), ammonia (respiratory issues), chlorine (toxic fumes) and sodium laureth sulfate (carcinogenic). We also want our cleaning products to work as well as the toxic products that were used to, but they need to be biodegradable so theyre safe for our waterways and aquatic life as well as kind to all the humans and pets in our home. Never fear though as weve done all the work for you and chosen the best products now in store at Taste Organic that you will need to get any cleaning job done. See more

12.01.2022 Wibble wobble wibble wobble jelly on a plate! Who remembers growing up when jelly and ice cream was common and was the food du jour given in hospital after you had your tonsils out? The sun finally came out today after 2 weeks of miserable rain and a jelly and ice cream dessert served with a fruit salad (created with easy to digest nutrient dense sugars) made a welcome appearance after lunch. I made my jelly today by using a mix of raspberry and blackcurrant juice and adding ...some extra frozen raspberries, but you can pretty much use any fruit juice combination you like. Orange and lemon juice works well as does watermelon, raspberry, orange and lemon or watermelon, apple, strawberry and mint. By adding grassfed beef gelatin to the juice you create an extra hit of nutrition to fight inflammation, protect the thyroid, reduce cortisol and boost your metabolism. The gelatin is also a great source of protein so can assist with blood sugar issues (as do the raspberries) and helps to heal your gut lining. Gelatin can also improve skin and hair as well as support your immune system. Because it contains glycine it can assist with sleep issues as well. It's important that you use a gelatin powder that is grass-fed or organic; not the toxic, chemical laden gelatin you can buy at the supermarket. To get the real health benefits, the gelatin should come from animals that have been pasture-raised and not treated with antibiotics or steroids and it should not contain any other additives after processing. Blackcurrants and raspberries are both antioxidant rich and contain a wide range of vitamins and minerals as well as a specific antioxidant called anthocyanins. This antioxidant possesses antidiabetic, anticancer, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and anti-obesity effects, as well as prevention of cardiovascular diseases. For my Christmas trifle this year I made this version of jelly for the bottom layer and added 300g of organic frozen raspberries and it was a refreshing hit of summery goodness. Enjoy!

11.01.2022 Growing up in a Greek Australian household, I always looked forward to helping my Mum make all the traditional Greek sweets served at Christmas time. One of her specialities is a sugar dusted shortbread biscuit known as Kourabiethes in Greek, which as a child, reminded me of snowy mountain peaks. They are melt in your mouth buttery and crumbly at the same time, with just the right amount of softly scented sweetness. It is thought these biscuits originated in 7th century Persi...a after sugar became more readily available. This filtered through to Asia Minor and I suspect the crescent shape grew in popularity in Greece during the Turkish occupation. Many variations of this biscuit exist throughout the many regions of Greece, but were traditionally prepared with rose or orange blossom water and with butter made from sheep’s milk. My parents hail from the south coast of Greece, from Kalamata in the Peloponnese and as such, our version omits the almonds, and uses ouzo as the flavouring along with vanilla and rosewater. I’ve also created a gluten free version for you with cultured butter, coconut sugar and a mix of gluten free flours. I’ve used mastiha as a flavouring instead of ouzo as it has a similar subtle anise profile. Mastiha is a resin produced by the Mastiha tree which only grows on the island of Chios and is known for its food as medicine qualities. It is often used to treat helicobacter pylori which can cause stomach ulcers, and as a general digestive aid and relief from heartburn. If you can tolerate gluten then I highly recommend you make my Mum’s version as they are truly the best! Enjoy!

11.01.2022 On a hot summer’s day there’s nothing more refreshing and reviving than a hefty slice of ice cold watermelon. So I dare you to resist my Watermelon & Raspberry Jelly! You can get your watermelon doing double duty by adding grassfed beef gelatin for an extra nutrition hit to fight inflammation, protect the thyroid, reduce cortisol and boost your metabolism! My son is a summer baby and I created this recipe for his 10th birthday in lieu of a birthday cake as he had a number of... food restrictions at the time. It’s ideal as a treat but if you eat it with cheese (Greek feta is my choice), yoghurt or ice cream it morphs into a great snack and the perfect foil for keeping stress at bay. Watermelon is an excellent hydrator, cleanser and detoxifier on a cellular level. Bountiful in vitamins A & C as well as beta-carotene, lycopene, lutein and zeaxanthin it can reduce inflammation and water retention, boost the immune system, improve eyesight, aid in weight loss and improve your mood. It’s also loaded with antioxidants that can neutralize free radicals and protect against chronic illness. It’s gotten a bad rap over the years - being labelled as high in sugar - surprisingly however, apples contain twice the amount. The rind also contains many beneficial nutrients such as chlorophyll and the seeds, especially if black, can also be mashed up and eaten, as they contain iron, zinc and protein and have a calming effect on the nervous system which can relax the body and lower blood pressure.

08.01.2022 You may know this old fashioned treat as a Hedgehog Slice but its derived from the Chocolate Salami recipe invented at the beginning of the 20th century. If youre German it would be called Cold Dog, Cold Snout or even Cellar Cake; Biscuit Cake in the Mediterranean and more specifically Mosaic in Greece. My Chocolate and Coconut Mosaic is one of those recipes that is quick and easy to put together at the last minute as long as you allow time for it to set in the fridge. It...s also quite forgiving as you can vary the nut, seed and dried fruit combination to whatever you have in the pantry. Usually a favourite this time of the year for school fetes and fairs Interestingly some of the most googled recipes during lockdown contained condensed milk which is made by cooking down, milk, sugar and baking soda. Never having cooked with it before I was curious to try the coconut milk version made by @naturescharm as well as the new gluten free @ceresorganicsau Coconut Wafer Rolls and it didnt disappoint! Gluten free and dairy free with lots of good fats from the coconut products. If you can tolerate dairy swap the coconut oil out with butter for an even more decadent version!

06.01.2022 Christmas brings our family and friends together and helps us appreciate the love in our lives we can often take for granted. It is the season for giving and remembering and sharing the love. So let’s take the time to slow down and enjoy the simple things this Christmas spending more time with our loved ones, remembering the past but also looking forward together and hoping for the future. One way my family connects is through food making it and eating it together especia...lly on festive occasions, so today I’m sharing my Macadamia Christmas Crunch which is perfect to make and give as gifts. Macadamias are a nutrient-powerhouse rich in essential vitamins and minerals including vitamin A, iron, B vitamins and folate. They also contain protein and include a healthy dose of good fats and antioxidants. When added to cultured butter and raw honey they transform into a wholesome and nutrient dense treat that shines as brightly as the star on the top of your tree! Enjoy!

05.01.2022 My Happy New Year Cake is something that I serve every New Year’s Eve or New Year’s Day. Traditionally in Greek homes it’s made from a brioche type dough and called Saint Basil’s Cake (Vasilopita in Greek). Saint Basil is the Greek version of Santa Claus. Over the years however the recipe has been adapted throughout various regions of Greece from a bread into more of a cake and this is my interpretation of the version I grew up with. A coin is inserted in the cake and whoev...er is lucky enough to find the coin in their slice is said to be lucky for the coming year! Slices are given out by the head of the household in order from oldest to youngest. It’s a lovely, light, lemon scented and moist cake due to the addition of yoghurt and taking the extra time to separate the eggs rather than adding them whole. I’ve also added some raisins this time for a bit of variety. Given the year that was 2020 perhaps I should have added some extra coins for good measure! Happy New Year! Enjoy!

03.01.2022 And just like that Im back! You may recall that I closed my business last year to have a break and recharge. What you may not know is that I also sold the building earlier this year which housed our shop, online store and commercial kitchen thanks to the help of @sellinghousesaus and @matthew_smythe_ from @bellepropertyau. @shaynnablaze @andrewtwinter and @charlie_albone did a fantastic job converting our property into a saleable commodity. So Im very excited to announce ...my new collaboration with @taste.organic launching during National Organic Week. Weve had a long association for over 10 years as they were the first stockist of my Kitsas Kitchen range of fermented foods. Ill be posting recipes and other handy hints to help you live a more natural, eco and sustainable lifestyle. Ill also be at the new Cammeray store on Fridays 11am - 1.30pm and Saturdays 11.30am - 2pm and can assist with any questions you might have regarding products, produce, special diets and nutrition information.

02.01.2022 Cultured or fermented drinks have been traditionally consumed for thousands of years to aid digestion, heal the gut, build immunity and help with detoxification. The simple beauty of culturing or fermentation is that this process creates a nutrient-dense, enzyme-rich live food that is easily assimilated by the body. By an amazing alchemical process known as lacto-fermentation, the friendly bacteria naturally present together with those added by a culture starter dine on the s...ugars and quickly lower the pH creating a more acidic environment where the bacteria are able to reproduce and replicate quite prolifically. They are able to convert the starches and sugars into lactic acid, which as a natural preservative inhibits the growth of pathogens and preserves the nutrients. Culturing your drinks takes your nutrition to a whole other level of wellness by helping to re-establish your inner ecosystem. We all now know of the gut- brain connection and how approximately 75% of the neurotransmitters found in our gut also reside in the brain. So it would make sense to find ways of increasing our good gut bacteria and therefore improving mood, cognition, vitality and wellbeing in general. Consuming cultured liquids is especially helpful for those with food intolerances a perfect example of using food as medicine as a preventative. A good place to start is Coconut Kefir where we can culture the water from young green coconuts (not the brown hairy type) and transform an already nutritious, mineral rich liquid full of electrolytes into a powerhouse of probiotic nutrition. The culturing process creates a drink where the nutrients are increased one hundred fold and the liquid becomes much more hydrating and bioavailable for the body as well creating a powerful fortress against foreign invading pathogens. A perfect addition to your Christmas menu! Coconut Kefir Champagne anyone? Ingredients available at Taste Organic
