                S.N.E. Turn brown 





  S N E turn brown foodie

The nutritional quality of “Turn Brown” weaning diet was assessed in this study. “Turn Brown” diet was prepared from the combination of equal proportions of ground maize, groundnut, soybean and guinea corn. The nutritional quality of “Turn Brown” was evaluated from its total nitrogen and protein contents, compared to the contents in Basal and Reference diets. Also, the diets were fed to rats for 10 days to assess the protein quality of the diets. The results showed that the total nitrogen and protein contents of Turn Brown were significantly higher (P<0.05), compared respectively, to the contents in reference and basal diets. Also, the nitrogen and protein intakes, carcass and faecal nitrogen were comparable with those obtained for rats on reference diet; but significantly higher (P<0.05) than those for rats on basal diet. The net protein utilization and biological value obtained for rats on “Turn Brown” were significantly higher (P<0.05) than those for rats on reference diet; while protein efficiency ratio, net protein retention and true digestibility obtained for rats on “Tom Brown” did not differ significantly (P>0.05) from those obtained for rats on reference diet. The weight change obtained for rats on “Tom Brown” was insignificantly higher (P>0.05) than that obtained for rats on reference diet. The results of this study showed that “Turn Brown” is generally of higher nutritional quality compared to those of other diets.







Important Note if Turn Brown is used for weaning:
“In Ghana, mothers conventionally fed their children complementary foods made with flour from cereals. A common mix made with roasted corn is known as Turn Brown. But the purely corn flour based Turn brown need to be modified to add proteins when used as weaning for infants. The Ghana Health Service and UNICEF began teaching women’s groups how to make a modified weaning food recipe during the 1980s: the new mix combined 4-parts cereal (maize) and 1-part legume (soybeans, cowpeas, and groundnuts). The legumes added protein crucial to infants’ health.”

Japanese boneless chicken recipes

 Yakitori-Style Zucchini With Scallions and  Salmon Yakitori is a Japanese dish where boneless chicken pieces prepared with salt (shio) and a soy seasoning sauce (tare) are strung onto bamboo sticks and barbecued over a charcoal fire. This weeknight feast acquires the kinds of conventional yakitori and applies it to salmon and vegetables. A pungent sweet sauce of soy sauce, sugar, vinegar, garlic and ginger serves as a coating and serving sauce. Prepared with greens, the extra salmon and vegetables make a decent serving of mixed greens the following day, and the sauce keeps in the cooler for as long as seven days. Brush it onto chicken or pork cleaves prior to broiling, or use it to prepare your next wipe out-the-cooler singed rice. INGREDIENTS   ¼ cup canola oil, plus more for greasing 1 tablespoon minced garlic (from about 3 cloves) 1 tablespoon minced ginger (from a 1-inch piece) ⅔ cup low-sodium soy sauce ⅓ cup turbinado sugar 2 tablespoons unseasoned rice vinegar 2 t...

Raspberry Macarons

  Raspberry Macarons Time : About 2 ½ hours, plus at least 24 hours chilling These macarons' recipe include a little amount of finely chopped freeze-dried raspberries, which lends an unexpected tart fruitiness. Just keep in mind that it can also encourage the shells to brown very rapidly, so if the first batch starts to get a little golden, lower the oven's temperature for the second batch by around 25 degrees. Also try the Chocolate Macarons  INGREDIENTS Yield: 23 macarons FOR THE BATTER 1 cup plus 3 tablespoons/130 grams confectioners’ sugar ¾ cup/85 grams superfine blanched almond flour ½ cup/14 grams freeze-dried raspberries Lemon wedge (optional), for cleaning bowl 3 large egg whites (90 grams), at room temperature ½ teaspoon kosher salt (such as Diamond Crystal) 6 tablespoons/75 grams granulated sugar Red gel food coloring (optional) FOR THE FILLING 4 ounces white chocolate, finely chopped 1 teaspoon vanilla extract Pinch of kosher salt (such as Diamond Crystal) ⅓  ...

How to prepare Skillet Chicken With Black Beans, Rice and Chiles

  Skillet Chicken With Black Beans, Rice and Chiles TIME: 1 hour  This authentic one-pot marvel of chicken, black beans, rice, tomatoes, and chiles, adapted from Diana Henry's "From the Oven to the Table: Simple Dishes That Look After Themselves," will please everyone at the table. The cumin-infused rice soaks up all the luscious juices as the chicken thighs roast. The rice and chicken are both nicely cooked when the timer goes off. Use a 12-inch skillet for this recipe; any other size could lead to undercooked or overdone chicken or rice. If you have any leftovers, they taste fantastic in tacos or enchiladas. INGREDIENTS Yield: 4 to 6 servings 8 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs Flaky sea salt and black pepper 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil or peanut oil 1 large yellow or white onion, chopped 2 green or red bell peppers, halved, seeded and sliced 2½ cups chicken stock 2 red Fresno chiles or jalapeños, halved, seeded and chopped 1(3-inch)  cinnamon stick, broken in ha...
