Makanan Sejuk Beku (Frozen Food)

Kali ini saya ingin bercerita tentang penyediaan makanan sejuk beku atau lebih dikenali dengan perkataan "Frozen Food".  Selalunya makanan sebegini banyak terdapat di pasaran lebih dikenali di kalangan wanita berkerjaya seperti saya.  Tetapi sebagai seorang ibu, tentu sekali kita akan risau tentang bahan pengawet yang terkandung didalam makanan tersebut.

Jadi kali ini saya ingin berkongsi cerita tentang masakan dan kuih muih yang biasa saya sediakan dan cara penyimpanan secara sejuk beku untuk hidangan keluarga malah juga untuk tetamu yang kadang-kala datang tanpa diduga.  Antaranya ialah:

Karipap

Karipap yang disediakan banyak boleh disimpan di dalam "freezer". Biasanya saya akan menggoreng seketika karipap tersebut dan apabila sejuk, saya akan memasukkannya ke dalam "freezer".  Ini adalah untuk mematikan tepung supaya keripap tidak melekat di antara satu sama lain.  Bila hendak digoreng, saya akan keluarkan dahulu dan dibiarkan seketika sebelum di goreng menggunakan api yang sederhana.  Ini kerana dikhuatiri inti didalam masih beku/sejuk tetapi kulitnya sudah hangus/hitam. 

 

Donut

Donut yang telah siap dibentuk, digoreng seketika. Angkat dan sejukkan sebelum dimasukkan ke dalam freezer bag. Simpan di dalam freezer. Keluarkan dari freezer seketika sebelum digoreng sepenuhnya dan digaul dengan gula kaster atau apa apa topping yang disukai.

 
 

Lauk Pauk

Selain dari makanan dan kuih muih, saya juga biasa menyediakan lauk pauk yang disejuk beku terutamanya lauk yang memakan masa yang lama untuk disediakan seperti rendang daging, sambal tumis ikan bilis, kari dan sebagainya.  Lauk pauk tersebut saya bahagikan kepada beberapa bekas kecil bertutup yang bersesuaian untuk satu hidangan dan simpan di dalam freezer setelah lauk tersebut benar-benar sejuk kerana seandainya panas dan terus disimpan, dikhuatiri lauk yang disimpan akan rosak.  Kaedah ini sangat membantu terutamanya bagi suri-suri yang berkerjaya seperti saya.  Ianya sungguh mudah dan ringkas, tetapi kebersihan tetap terjamin dan terjaga. 

Bagi sesiapa yang ingin mencuba cara saya ini, bolehlah mengikutinya.  Selain dari karipap dan donut, banyak lagi kuih-kuih lain yang boleh kita olahkan untuk dijadikan makanan sejuk beku misalnya kuih kasturi / kuih rengas, apam ayu, apam polko dot, kuih getuk ubi dan banyak lagi mengikut kretiviti masing-masing.  Gunakan cuti hujung minggu anda dengan menyiapkan serta menyusun atur tugasan di dapur untuk kesejahteraan keluarga.

CEMPEDAK

Allah, Allah Ya Allah.  Alhamdulillah syukur kepada Allah S.W.T.  segala rezeki datangnya dari Allah S.W.T.  bak kata perpatah melayu, "Orang memberi, kita merasa".  Terima kasih buat jiranku Komariyah Nia cempedak yang sentiasa menjadi kegemaran kami sekeluarga.

Sugguh, cempedak sentiasa mengadi kegilaan semua terutamanya bila digoreng.  Semerbak baunya menyelubungi segenap penjuru rumah, malah jiran sekeliling rumah juga dapat berkongsi baunya yang semerbak.

Tabarakallah, Subhanallah! rezeki yang Allah S.W.T berikan kepada hambaNya dengan pelbagai cara.  Tanpa saya sedari Allah S.W.T telah mengurnia rezeki jiran-jiran yang sungguh baik dan sentiasa hidup tolong menolong antara kami. 

Alhamdulillah Ya Allah.

NASI MINYAK HUJAN PANAS

Masya'allah, Tabarakallah!  Ajarlah anak-anak samada perempuan atau lelaki masuk ke dapur agar tidak kekok memegang senduk, kuali dan periuk.  Nanti, mereka akan membesar dan akan membawa haluan sendiri lalu pergi meninggalkan kita.  Dapur si ibu pasti akan sunyi.  Sungguh itulah pusingan alam kejadian Allah S.W.T.  Kita sebagai insan harulah akur. 

Inilah antara hasil dari pertolongan anak dara saya Adibah Aqilah sewaktu di dapur.  Sewaktu hujung minggu sempat mengajar dia bagaimana proses menyediakan nasi yang bewarna warni ini. Dari nasi yang berwarna putih bersih, boleh diwarnakan sedemikian rupa dan apa bezanya penyediaan nasi putih dengan nasi minyak.

Prevention is Better than Cure

Black Seed Oil

This is a natural home remedy and only for digestive complaints, minor skin problems and simple illnesses, e.g. colds, basic allergies etc. will the effects of the oil be quickly felt.

My sister who was in stress and had no appetite soon retained her interest in eating after a spoonful of the oil.

For acute symptoms the oil can be slow and should be taken over a long term. Acute symptoms often result from the body being rundown due to stess, bad diet etc. We need to build our body back to be able to support itself.

Black seed oil finds the problems in the body (mainly by strengthening and rebalancing the immune system) and solves them giving the body the strength to defend and fight against disease. Generally the oil should be taken to support severe problems from at least 3 months to even 6 months.

Dosage

For those just beginning to take the oil initially one should take: 1 teaspoon 3 times daily for 2-3 weeks and thereafter a teaspoon 2 times daily.

This dosage may be increased when illness falls upon us. As much as it is advisable to take it continually, it is also advisable to sometimes not take it for a couple of weeks so the body doesn’t take it for granted.

For those taking capsules (some people find the oil far too pungent) the equivalent of 2 capsules amounts to one teaspoon of oil.

Of course we are all different, some of us can take lots more than others. John Claydon who runs a health food supplements mail catalog describes his first experience with the blessed seed oil.

Description:

“I had been searching this oil for a long time after hearing so much about it. I took the oil for 3 days. Now I take a lot of supplements already but I didn’t know how much rubbish I had left in me.”

“I started taking about 2-3 desert spoons a day. Within 48 hours the cleaning process was very deep, it cleared out the kidneys and the liver, it went really deep. It went straight to the liver, it is an excellent liver flush.”

“It is a fantastic product, we are very happy with it here. I have been on it ever since, I take a maintenance dose of 1 teaspoon a day.”

John Claydon of Regenerative Nutrition

Children aged 12 and under should take half the suggested dose for adults and infants half of the children’s dose.

During food allergies the dosage should be taken cautiously so as not to cause over powerful reactions. Everyone’s susceptibility to the oil is different and one should be sensitive to what one feels is good for oneself and use the above as a general guideline.

Black seed oil has proved to be an excellent healer, and its areas of application range from external skin care (psoriasis, eczema, acne, dry skin, joints & scalp massage) and to internal use as a treatment for various complaints (asthma, arthritis, immune system).

Research

Researchers are constantly examining the benefits of black seed oil and other herbal remedies in the treatment of many ailments for two main reasons.

One is to conclude that who use these natural home remedies will not be at risk of detrimental side effects.

The other is to prove the effectiveness of complementary alternative medicine, because available pharmaceutical remedies are for certain ailments limited, may have bad side effects and can even be ineffective in the long term.

Research on the benefits of black seed oil is considered preliminary, as most studies have been carried out on animals, but the results are promising. Indeed the FDA have patented extracts of black seed in 3 separate cases and in 2 other separate cases they have patented it in combination with other herbs.

Black seed has also been patented in the UK.

Asthma

The concept of black seed being used to assist sufferers of asthma is indeed an interesting possibility. The fact that it took Germany by storm after curing a famous show horse certainly empowered the notion of how well herbal remedies can work.

Dr. Peter Schleicher a top Immunologist in Munich, Germany saw that his daughter´s famous show horse, “Baronesse” was dramatically cured from serious asthma by black seed. He then applied black seed to a prominent German politician. When he was also completely cured the Dr. took the seed to serious study and was the head of 5 major research studies on this ancient herb.

The Dr. took oil capsules of black seed into a trial of 600 patients who were suffering from allergies. 70% of patients with allergies such as pollen and dust allergies, asthma and neuro-dermitis were cured.

Tumours

Herbal remedies and alternative medicine are becoming redicovered as a real solution to restore and sustain good health. Research has identified black seed as being highly beneficial in the treatment of removing tumours.

The Black seed has been treated as serious remedy for clearing tumours and has been patented by the FDA in USA in 2 separate cases for the treatment of cancer and other conditions and the prevention of the side affects of anti cancer chemo-therapy and to support the immune system.

(One must be aware that these patents are for extracts of the black seed and are not patents for our products)

In other studies made it was found that this herb diminishes toxic side effects caused by several other chemotherapeutic drugs. Extracts from the seeds were toxic to tumour cells and prevent blood cell toxicity caused by the anti-cancer drug cisplatin. The active components of black seed, thymoquinoline and dithymoquinone have been shown to inhibit tumour cells, even tumour cells resistant to anti-tumour drugs.

Diabetes

Diabetes is the number one nutritional problem in US. This is mainly caused by bad diet which creates excess fat. Being obese or overweight is the main cause of Diabetes Type II.

There have been numerous research papers confirming the benefits of black seed for diabetes. The well known physician and herbalist Muhammed Salim Khan confirmed the benefits of Black seed with human subjects.

The best results with diabetes may be obtained by combining black seed oil with a good diet. One should contact ones physician as studies have shown that black seed oil reduces blood glucose levels significantly. One should avoid over fatty foods and add fresh fruits in the diet.

Colon Cleanse

A colon cleanse is a special issue for black seed oil. A blocked intestinal tract can lead to many other illnesses, as Paracelsus said, “Death is found in the intestines.”

Due to our intake of more and more processed foods, fast foods etc, we subject our intestines to foods that are difficult to breakdown. On top of this with the addition of chemicals in foods, in the air and in tap water we overload ourselves leading to toxin bulid up.

Black seed oil can be used as a therapy due to its anti bacterial quality and because of its content of volatile oil (anti microbial) which cleans the intestinal tract due to nigellin and saponin melathin.

Candida

Candida is becoming more and more common. This may well have something to do with the fashion of ladies not wearing sufficient clothing. Consequently they are exposed to the cold air which can create infection. Studies with black seed have shown it to be a healthy remedy against this ailment.

In studies of black seed against candida it was confirmed that black seed extracts produce antimicrobial activity against a broad range of microbes and especially on multiple antibiotic resistant bacteria.

Horses and Pets

One should not be too surprised to find nigella sativa as an animal health supplement. Presently in Germany, Switzerland and Austria there are numerous companies specialising in nigella sativa products especially for horses.

Horses and pets, like ourselves are open to sickness. By administering black seed into the feed one stabilises and strengthens the all important immune system.

Presently there is a major company in the UK which supplies an ayurvedic formula with a 20% content of black seed. This is for the treatment of horses with Laminitis, Equine Cushings Disease, Diabetes and Insulin resistance.

The Benefits of Antioxidants In Black Seed

Many studies have displayed the antioxidant activity of Black seed. Antioxidants are substances that may protect cells from the damage caused by unstable molecules known as free radicals.

Free radical damage may lead to cancer. Antioxidants stabilize free radicals preventing the beginning of many illnesses. Black seed is also known to stabilise superoxide which is one of the stronger free radicals.

Healthy Recipes

Black seed is commonly used in the kitchen in the orient because of it’s peppery and onion taste and when heated, it imparts an aroma strong, yet pleasing, like oregano or cumin, this is combined with the healing effects of the seed.

Over reactive immune system

This can lead to allergic reactions and rheumatic diseases. Black seed has powerful anti-inflammatory, bronchial-dilating and anti-histamine properties, and as such is an excellent agent against allergic reactions and states.

In allergic conditions, the excessive T cell function and the excessive humoral immune reaction of the B cells is largely stabilised. The hypersensitivity (excessive immune reaction) to protein components of pollen is reduced.

The active substance, nigellon, is vasodilative and stimulates secretion. Asthmatics achieve a significantly improved lung volume, have fewer problems with shortness of breath and secretion is improved. Also chronic disease like multiple sclerosis and leukemia can be relieved.

Direction: 0.5 – 1 teaspoon of black seed oil taken 2-3 times a day for 20 days thereafter 1 teaspoon daily for 3 – 6 months.

Infection of the respiratory system. Cough, asthma, hayfever, sinusitis, colds.

Because of black seed oil’s contents nigellone and thymiquinone it has a secretion-dissolving and vasodilating effect therefore strongly relaxing the respiratory system. It’s bronchodilating effect opens passageways in the lungs allowing more oxygen to pass through. This can be amazing when one has been blocked up.

Combined with it’s supportive role of the immune system black seed oil has been very beneficial in these applications.

Direction:Apply black seed oil to the chest and back. Mix a teaspoon of black seed oil in boiling water and inhale the vapour twice a day. Take a teaspoon of black seed oil in the morning and in the evening.

For hay fever begin taking a teaspoon of black seed oil in the morning and in the evening 3-4 weeks prior to the pollen season.

Flu & Nasal congestion

Placing three to four drops of black seed oil in each nostril can relieve nasal congestion and head cold distress.

During infection take 2-3 teaspoons a day.

Liver and Gall bladder problems

The warming and bitter principles seem to penetrate into blockages in the body and rapidly instigate normalisation. Also saponins strengthen the liver function and promote bile secretion.

Take 2-3 teaspoons of black seed oil for 2 weeks.

Gall stones & kidney stones

The component nigellin promotes the function of the liver and kidneys (gallbladder). Their anti spasmodic effects are said to be useful in the case of gallstones, excessive acids are broken down due to increased kidney activity and bile secretion which helps relieve inflammation.

Prepare a formulation of 250g of ground black seed & 250g pure honey, stir thoroughly before use. Take two tablespoons of this formulation and mix thoroughly with half a cup of hot water. Finally add one teaspoon of black seed oil. This mixture should be taken every morning before consuming any food.

For Hypertension

Black seed helps lower blood pressure; it releases excess fluid and relieves arterial pressure. Thymoquinone contains strong anti oxidant properties which benefit cardiovascular complaints. Prostoglandin E1 (black seed stimulates its production in the body) has been proven to lower blood pressure.

Take half teaspoon of Black seed oil with any hot drink at any time. Take 2 lobes of garlic on empty stomach. Apply Black seed oil to your whole body and expose it to the sun every three days where possible. (This is a typical remedy in Middle Eastern countries)

For Backache and Rheumatic pains.

Many types of rheumatism belong to the auto-immune group of diseases and indicate a deficient immune system.

Rheumatics often suffer from intestinal mycosis and the formation of too many acid toxins. Black seed oil has an anti-inflammatory effect, reduces crystallisation and improves blood circulation in the painful areas of the body.

Warm the oil slightly and apply to the area thoroughly and massage into the affected area and drink 1 teaspoon oil twice daily.

Diarrhoea

Eat white boiled rice with a cup of yoghurt. Drink 2 teaspoons of black seed oil until the problem ceases.

Gatrointestinal Complaints Flatulence, heartburn, constipation, intestinal fungi. Black seed oil contains saponin melanthin and the bitter principle nigellin, both having strong eliminating qualities cleaning the intestines and also increasing urine secretion therefore releasing more toxins.

Neurodermatitis, Eczema and Psoriasis

The ingredients of black seed oil heal inflammation of the skin and alleviate itching. Sebaceous glands and sweat glands are able to work better again.

The balance is restored to the immune system. Heartburn is usually reduced to a minimum within 10 days or disappears altogether. The active ingredient thymoquinone encourages the bile flow and increases toxins to be released.

Direction: 0.5 – 1 teaspoon of black seed oil taken 2-3 times a day for 20 days thereafter 1 teaspoon daily for 3 – 6 months.
