I’m writing to remind how important it is to eat properly.  Don’t take in too much trans fat, sugar and salt and avoid preservatives whenever possible.  Dairy cholesterol may well be one of the biggest health food debates in history and for those who oppose dairy, a variety of good options exist.  For me personally, having grown up in a strong dairy environment in Germany, milk, cheese and butter are necessary staples, but for vegans or someone with lactose intolerance, I can understand why some might disagree.

The Thai curry vegetable stew my wife Yoko made is set apart from the usual by its list of ingredients.  Other than the white chicken meat, the rest of the dish in 100% vegan.  The spice mix was created at home from scratch using tumeric, cumin, dried chilantro, a pinch of garlic and one or two other little exotic herbs, and the bullion was made at home.  Just enough pure salt was added for taste and not a grain more.

Yoko usually makes a 5.0L pot full of this sort of stew, and while taking several days to eat up with boiled potates and bread or poured over rice like a Thai donburi, the flavor matures and gets better and better.  I actually prefer the left-overs!
