Healthy Cooking
Healthy cooking doesn't mean that you have to become a gourmet chef or
invest in expensive cookware. You can use basic cooking techniques to
prepare food in healthy ways.
By using healthy cooking techniques, you can cut fat — and calories.
Consider, for instance, that each tablespoon (about 14 grams) of oil you
use when frying more adds than 100 calories. To put it in perspective —
adults should limit fat calories to no more than 20 to 35 percent of
total daily calories. For a 2,000-calorie diet, that means no more than
400 to 700 calories from fat a day. By switching to roasting, you not
only eliminate added fat but also allow any fat in the food to drip
away.
The healthy cooking methods described here best capture the flavor and
retain the nutrients in foods without adding excessive amounts of fat or
salt. Use them often to prepare your favorite dishes. Click the tabs to
