In South Korea, Buddhist temple food is viewed the way spa food is in the U.S.: curative, cleansing, perhaps even medicinal. Buddhist nuns have preserved these cooking techniques for 1,600 years.

Nun Seonjae’s popular cooking class has over 2,000 on waiting listAbout 40 middle-aged women and a few men were all eyes and ears as Buddhist nun Seonjae related to them how she refused to cook at Hotel Shilla when treated like a regular cook. “Temple food is not some random cheap food.

What are Electric Foods? Electric foods are completely natural, completely indigenous to the Earth, saturated with Sun rays and 100% alive! Electric foods help to increase the copper within the nervous system promoting a greater activation and use of your brain and senses. Electric foods are alkaline. Our bodies are alive. We are a living life force. Energy makes us move. Alkaline foods supplies energy, helps the body to heal and nourish itself. Electric foods are non-hybrid, not genetically modified, non-irradiated. Just eating Fresh Raw Foods can change and heal your body... "Dr. Sebi centers his medicinal approach on herbology. His beliefs are grounded in that all beings were created by God as electrical entities. From birth, we feed our bodies "dead" foods found in traditional stores and grocery shops. Electric foods can only be found in nature. The theory is essence centers on the natural circle of life. By giving one's body back to nature you will return to your natural healthy state. The herbs and foods that cure are ones grown without the interference of the hand of man. That is to say, if an herb grows naturally in a forest, it retains its electric curing ability, but the same herb grown in a hot house will not hold healing qualities." www.Drsebiproducts.com The first time that I discovered “Electric Food” was from a man affectionately named Dr. Sebi. Although he was not a conventional doctor, he listened to his mother and other indigenous people around him, who studied nature, life and positive changes to make for a healthier lifestyle. One thing he discovered was that foods traditionally served in homes were tainted and changed. Foods have been changed, most times on the DNA- molecular-cellular level, in order to control the seeds, control and accelerate mass production of the foods and/or add insecticides. Chickens, Cows, Fish and many other living animals raised for food are fed antibiotics, artificial vitamin supplements, and growth hormones, using injections and genetically engineered feed, to assure the largest possible animal, grown as quickly as possible; therefore ensuring the most money made from the animal. The same system of artificial chemicals would go for growing fruit and vegetable produce as well. Many farmers use toxic insecticides and artificial commercial fertilizers in order to supplement the size and yield of their crops. All of these actions changes food from being "Electrically" balanced with our bodies to being off-balance. In order to change your eating practices from mundane to "Electric" all you have to do is go back to nature. GROW YOUR OWN FOODS! The best foods are those that have been picked fresh from your own cultivated garden, then put into your mouth. These foods have been nurtured with your own hands, so you receive the direct energy from the Seedlings, Water, Soil and Sun as well as the fact that you have established a relationship with your foods. We are Eternal Beings. Energy cannot be created or destroyed. Our bodies come from ancient stardust. Many families are returning to the higher consciousness of our Ancient Ancestors, in Earth Grounding and Sun, Moon and Stargazing. Raw is best. Electric foods are alive with enzymes and nutrients. the fresher and you eat these nutrients, the more successful you will get these life-giving nutrients into your body. Our bodies are like batteries. In order to maintain a full charge, our bodies must maintain the right Electrolyte balance of acid and alkaline state. Thick Slimy mucus and phlegm secretions from the body are a sign of a high acidic state. This promotes water retention inflammation in joints and vital organs, and toxicity and dehydration in the liver and kidneys. Remember, Cancers, bad bacteria, flukes and viruses thrive in an acidic starchy environment. Your body responds and suffers poorly to the consumption of devitalized Sugars, Salts, and Starches (processed corn, and wheat produced foods)- like you're eating rocks! Our bodies are our space suits- the only one we have! We've got to take care of our bodies and be a good model to teach our children good habits. At Amen Par Ankh, Amen Ankh Urban Farms and Amen Ankh Akademy, we are KRST Conscious. We seek to be stewards of the earth, to live ecologically friendly and in harmony with the creation. We follow Ausar's mandate: to grow and produce foods, resources, and comfort, living in harmony with creation. We honor the lessons of our ancient Ancestars! All life is sacred! Our Aku (Ancient Ancestors,) paid propitiation before we took anything from nature. In our world view, no one could own what belonged to nature and the universe. So the division, De-forestation, destruction of ecosystems, mono-cropping, and the buying and selling of land into plots and parcels, also the itemization of our workforce of laborers, as expendable assets, was unheard of! Our Ancestars were Matriarchal Gatherer/Hunters, This means that Earliest Ancient Ancestors followed the herds of grazing, animals and learned to eat what the animals ate- mostly vegetation, fruits and some insects. So, our animals became our teachers. They taught us about the terrains, the waterways, the seasons, and best locations to harvest and glean the foods at their peak ripeness. These foods would provide the vital nutrients and energy that we needed to perform and survive the climates and diverse environments. We learned to defend ourselves and controlled our predators for security. As we learned to hunt down animals, we also began to eat our teachers – and started corralling, herding, and cooking the animals. We finally began planting and growing our foods in selected locations, instead of foraging, which lead us to a more sedentary lifestyle. So, the Pastoral Herders/Shepherd Kings, and then the Agricultural farmers/ Mound builders, established empires that lasted thousands of years! At Amen Par Ankh, we seek to live in earth-friendly ways as our Aboriginal Ancestors. At Amen Ankh Urban Farm, we grow and produce foods, fresh from our local farm, and growers. Kansas City, Missouri [email protected] call 816-281-7704 Most of us are overweight, have poor complexions and inflammation because we are holding toxic chemicals, gases and heavy metals in our bodies and we are starving on the cellular level. We are not receiving the proper vitamins and nutrients, and whole grain energy that we need from our foods. So we continue to be hungry, unsatisfied, and overeating because our biological system is still in need. The nutrients we need are not found in their proper form from most "junk" and "fast" foods that we eat daily. We are killing ourselves by what we put into our own mouths and feed to our families- According to the CDC we are dying MORE OFTEN from Heart attack, High Blood Pressure, Stroke, Diabetes, and Cancers- than HOMICIDE! Organic foods are the #1 choice available in supermarkets today. Even though these foods are not totally in sync with our body's electric nature, one might think that these foods are the closest one may get in a mass-produced setting. All certified organic foods are produced - artificial fertilizer free and insecticide free, bringing the electric levels higher than GMO foods that have been tampered with, from the DNA level of seedings and their growing process. Yet, you are paying a higher retail markup, and these foods are still packaged and stored over time in such a way to diminish the nutrient content. This is a vital difference in our org-Ankh food boxes from Amen Ankh Urban Farms. 93% of the vegetables and fruits in a typical American diet are hybrids and genetically modified objects (GMOs). This means that the seeds and plants were modified and created or engineered in a science laboratory- not nature. These Frankenstein foods are not indigenous to the Earth. Typically, they are also highly acidic. High acidic foods are the opposite of alkalinity, which causes a block in the absorption of nutrients on a cellular level. The food that makes up the normal US diet is not even real! GMO’s are associated with the causes of cancers, deformities in babies because they are invasive on the genetic level. When nutrients are listed on the nutritional labels, typically on labeled foods – these vitamins & minerals most likely are not in the proper state that our bodies can assimilate (actually absorb into the blood cells and vital organs)! Here is a video on Codex Alimentarius: In essence, the United States food system, and many other countries have created a whole system that sets up people for dis-ease, stress and bad health. As we Free our minds- the rest will follow… With the commercialism of consumerism and the Kkorporatakrazy, serving their greed and profit interests, even beyond every pure effort and honest discipline, your family may still consume things that are not good for them. More than likely, we may even consume more hybrid and pseudo-foods. Our Air and Water and Soil has also been compromised, with our efforts to grow our own foods in an urban and suburban environment. We may be exposed to lead, aluminum, mercury, fluoride, chlorine, nicotine, etc. One simple thing we can do to change this is: DON`T EAT ANY FRUITS WITHOUT SEEDS (How could they be natural?) Remember that the vibration rate of "electric" foods are highest when you put your own hands on them, from the earth. So, growing your own foods, detoxing, exercise, breastfeeding as long as you possibly can, not eating out of Fast food and convenience stores are a vital necessity! If you just can’t grow your own foods, get to know your local grower. That is where local Urban Agriculture plays a key role. It is important to eat the foods that are locally grown where you live, to introduce the local pollens, microorganisms, and energy into your body system. This increases your immunity and lowers allergy symptoms. Detoxing with electric foods and herbs are vital to our health to remove the free radicals from our brains and other vital organs that take their toll on our health, performance, wellness and overcome the aging process. Organic meats are also available in stores, but one cannot ensure the lineage of the animal. Once changes are made to an animal for generations, those changes taint the genetic cellular structure of the animal. Thus, even organic meats can be produced from animals with no "Electric" or natural lineage. Aside from organic store-bought foods, the best place to find "Electric" foods is in your own backyard. Growing your own vegetables and herbs is a perfect way to re-sync your body with Mother Earth. "Electric" foods are ones that have a high vibration rate; this alludes to the foods closeness to the natural Earth. If you grow your own tomatoes from Heirloom seeds, you will be growing and consuming an "Electric" tomato, whereas if you purchase the tomato from a grocery store the vibration or "Electric" rate will be nearly non-existent. So, "Electric" foods are not that far from your front door. By growing your own produce, you will be one step closer to becoming "electric. At Amen Ankh Urban Farm, We Grow Food Not Lawns! We know that in the hustle and bustle, hassles of life, many may not have the time- or the capacity to grow all of the favorite foods that are vital. The Amen Ankh Farm has networked with other Urban Farmers to compile a variety of locally grown foods. Get to know your grower. The best foods are picked directly from the ground. If you had an Organic fruit, you could save the seeds and bring them to your grower to plant again. Also, save all of your organic produce food scraps to compost and take them to your local organic farmer to add back to the soil. When consuming beverages, alkaline water is best. By placing your hands on or near water with the intention of raising the water vibration rate, you will turn the water "electric"; thus fitting the water into your "electric" lifestyle. The Amen Ankh Urban Farm offers a proprietary Moringa tea, that when mixed with water, will electrify- and alkalize your body, when you consume it. We also provide a Juice lover’s box filled with sprouted herbs, seeds, and Dandelion Detox! The theory of consuming "electric" foods is quite simple, get back to nature, Grow your own and eat alkaline foods, grow what you eat or connect with and support a grower, conserve your seeds.

Welsh Rarebit is a noble version of cheesy toast. Everyone loves cheesy toast! Our Rarebit is a proud thing and, if we might say so, extremely popular. So it is odd that Fergus gleaned this recipe from a chef who had previously worked at Buck’s Club, which was well known at the time for selling the worst rarebit in London. There is another thing that we might add, if you are amused by a little mathematics. At St. JOHN Smithfield we sell an average of forty-five Welsh Rarebits per day. Taking into account annual closures, in this, our twenty-fifth year, we will have sold somewhere in the region of 405,000 rarebits. By the time we are thirty we will have surpassed the half-million mark. Onward!

This mushroom cheung fun recipe is a vegan version of one of my favorite dim sum dishes. Stir fried mushrooms are seasoned with teriyaki sauce and wrapped inside a soft and silky rice noodle sheet.If possible, use a scale to measure the flours to get an accurate measurement. The starches, especially potato starch, cake easily, so it might be difficult to get a precise volume measurement. That said, I have provided volume measurements in Note 2, using the spoon-and-sweep method of measuring flour. I originally published this recipe in September 2019 and made a few modifications to the preparation method for the filling.

MINOAN BEE PENDANT I fell in love with the ancient Minoan Bee on my first visit to Greece and Crete. The original is made of highly worked filigree solid gold. I put a silver reproduction around my neck & am still wearing one right now! 3500 years of beauty – and now available to us today as a reproduction lovingly designed by Ancient Circles. The Ancient Circles MINOAN BEE PENDANT is a bit larger than the size of a half dollar, it is 1 3/8" from tip to tip and also same from top of bail to bottom of center dangle piece. I designed it to be almost exact to museum original including size and is a great wearable pendant size, perhaps a bit big for earrings. Ancient Circles is bringing you this wonderful ancient sacred design in our modern reproduction as exactly to the original as possible (we designed the bronze version for authentic color and feel) The silver is sterling, I love the weight of it! The bronze is close to the original color and looks very like the original. I love wearing it, I am an average size woman who wears this as a daily pendant, you can leave it on comfortably overnight. It is not just a special occasion jewelry neckpiece. ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Wear the MINOAN BEE PENDANT to bring positive bee thoughts and images to all of those you contact. The discussion of the "bee disappearances" may bring a new level of consciousness to al of us of the importance of these hard working little creatures - our planet's pollinators, our sweet honey makers. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ THE NEEDS OF BEES AND OUR PLANET FOOD POLLINATION TODAY!! I am a beekeeper, and urge you to put a honey bee hive in your backyard, if we have one colony of honey bees every 2 miles we will pollinate our food supply and save the bees too! Plant bee friendly flowers and trees. Urgent that we all buy organic food and stop using the pesticides that are killing our honey bees. For more information on saving our blessed bees, Visit http://thehoneybeeconservancy.org/ ~~~~~ MINOAN BEE PENDANT HISTORY The famous MINOAN SACRED BEE PENDANT was found in the Old Palace cemetery at Chrysolakkos, outside the palace of Malia, the third largest Minoan palace on the island of Crete, in Greece. The MINOAN BEE PENDANT dates back to the Bronze Age, to the Protopalatial Period (1800 -1700 BC) and it’s a wonderful, very detailed representation of two bees. Are they carrying a drop of honey or pollen back to their colony or celebrating on the honeycomb? Are they eating pollen together in an intimate ritual or "bee dance"? The original MINOAN BEE PENDANT is perhaps an example of the height of the metal-smith's mastery of an ancient era - mastery in the process of granulation or faience, during which - tiny beads are adhered to the surface of the background metal. It is one of the most famous exhibits in the Heraklion Museum. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ HISTORY OF BEE WORSHIP Minoan culture, of the Neolithic period around Crete, depicted some of it’s many goddess images with bee-like stripes, wings and antennae. Apiculture was a prominent part of the Minoan culture, and bee- hives and other bee images feature prominently in it’s engraved imagery. Later Egyptian, Greek and Roman cultures inherited these patterns and beliefs and transmuted them into their own later myths and legends. Honey and the bee were also prominent in the cosmology of the early Egyptians. They were principles of the Egyptian diet, medicine and ritual magic. The typical black and gold striping and winged insect imagery seen on many Egyptian god and goddess figures, sarcophagi and other engraved imagery also referenced the bee. Some of my favorite bee lore is found in Greek and Roman mythology. Before Dionysus was torn to pieces and returned as a bee, he was in the form of a bull. His worshipers, called Maenad’s, were often depicted as frenziedly dancing females with wings. It’s now believed early Greek and Roman cultures actually drank mead as their chosen beverage, probably what’s now called pyment, a honey wine made with grapes. Pan, the Greek God commonly associated with the wild and sexuality, was also the God of Beekeeping. Our Sustainability Pledge: 10% of profits is donated to the Mendocino County Beekeepers Guild - who are promoting local beekeeping, developing local honey resources and also developing mite resistant strains of bees for our area. We encourage everyone to bee a helper...keep hives and develop local support networks, and also discover and share Organic methods of maintaining hive health!
