Thank you Lizzie - I don’t think I understood the relationship of sugar to fat via insulin properly - now I do! A question re lentils - for recipes such as these do you ever cook them in stock (vegetable or chicken)?
Re lentils and stock – yes, absolutely! I realise that I need to write about my complicated relationship with stock – to do with my mother's stock pot, and what she put in it, and how many years she boiled it up, and the fact that it tasted absolutely disgusting..
Great story! Although if all you do is eliminate the sugar and ultra processing, giant amounts of fat and salt aren’t really that bad.
Thanks Tim. Apart from a bit of moderation in most things is usually a good idea, it is definitely the ultra-processing that makes it so bad.
Moderation? So hard though! But you're right, necessary
It is!!
