Healthier cooking methods help us to Reduce the amount of fat Keep in vitamins and minerals
What kinds of equipment would help us achieve the above?
HEALTHIER COOKING

Ideal for steaming fish, meat and vegetables.
Loss of nutrients is reduced. Food keeps its shape and natural flavour. Food cooked this was is easier to digest. Food cooked this way has a lighter texture. Food is unlikely to be overcooked.
Rice steamers are useful for fluffy texture in rice making.
Advantages

Even with a well fitted lid the kitchen is likely to contain moisture from the steaming. You need good ventilation.
Disadvantages

Green and red peppers and potatoes contain vitamin C which can be lost when cooked in water. There is less heat destruction of nutrients because the cooking time is short.
Vitamin A in carrots and butternut squash which is essential for good night vision again
is kept more stable due to the shorter cooking time.

Advantages of microwave food. Cooked quickly, cuts down fuel and prep
time. Ideal for defrosting and re-heating Safer for elderly and disabled. Less heat destruction of nutrients. Less danger of food poisoning as food does
not have to be kept warm. Must be re-heated 70C for 2 mins until piping hot.
Frozen foods can be defrosted
ADVANTAGES OF MICROWAVE
