This video is the first of the Basic Techniques Series of videos that I will post intermittently with other cooking demonstrations. In this lesson, I use brown rice to illustrate the techniques and time-saving tips for cooking and storing whole grains – including how to make sure you have “instant” batches ready for quick meals or other culinary uses. The “Grain Cooking Chart” mentioned in the video, along with detailed directions and further information about the topics covered in this video will be posted to the blog soon!

This is Part 1 of 2 of the Basic Technique Series Lesson 2: Vinaigrettes. This cooking demonstration shows how to make one of the simplest sauces found in most American kitchens - the Vinaigrette (aka. oil and vinegar-based salad dressing and marinades). Homemade vinaigrettes take only moments to prepare and have MANY advantages over their store-bought counterparts. They are better tasting, less expensive, generally use better quality ingredients, and come in flavors limited only by your imagination. See the "Vinaigrettes Part 2" video to see a demonstration of how to use the vinaigrette made in "Part 1" to create "Southwestern Vegetable & Brown Rice Salad with Lime Garlic Vinaigrette." The recipes, detailed written instructions and additional information will be posted to the blog soon!
