		<itunes:summary>Last weekend, in Coeur D&#039; Alene, Idaho, at Pilgrim&#039;s Health Education Center, I gave a 1 hour presentation of my top 10 fat loss secrets, including practical nutrition, fat loss and lifestyle tips to turn the body into a calorie-burning machine.

There is a ton of information in this seminar that you&#039;re not going to hear anywhere else - but the information is easy to understand and everything is instantly accessible for you to begin doing right away, with no expensive machines or costly personal trainers involved.

The video was released LIVE via an iPhone broadcast to the BenGreenfieldFitness Facebook page, which you can visit by clicking here. Since the video was filmed with an iPhone, it isn&#039;t best quality on the planet (and the real tips don&#039;t start until about 8 minutes in), so I also isolated and touched up the audio so that you can click here to download and listen with your .mp3 player or computer.



Finally, for all members of the BenGreenfieldFitness Inner Circle or Ben&#039;s Body Transformation Club, the full .pdf powerpoint of this seminar is available inside the member areas.

Do you have questions of your own about the information in the video? Leave them below!</itunes:summary>

I need your help! We need more questions for Chef Todd for my  Monday kitchen video interview with him...what are your cooking  questions you&#039;d like me to ask him? Please leave them in the comment box  below this post!

If you&#039;re like me, you&#039;re avoiding making sauces!

And why?

Well, probably out of fear.

I know that&#039;s what&#039;s stopped me!

You always hear the horror stories of sauces &quot;breaking&quot; or&quot;burning&quot; or &quot;separating&quot; or just plain old not tasting good!

So I decided I wanted to overcome my fear, and I did what I&#039;ve been doing quite a bit of lately. I asked my colleague Chef Todd Mohr for his advice on sauce-making.

My &quot;a-ha&quot; moment came pretty quickly because Chef Todd explained sauces to me in such an easy format, even I couldn&#039;t miss it! Here&#039;s what he said:

Sauces are all made up of 3 components:

Liquid
Provides the body of the sauce.  There are five liquids or bases on which sauces are built, resulting in the five &quot;mother sauces&quot; (leading sauces). Most frequently used sauces are based on stocks.

Thickening Agents
Sauce must cling to food, needs a thickening agent, must not leave a puddle on the plate and must not be too thick and pasty. Starches are the most commonly used thickeners. Fat is also used.

Flavoring Agents
Sauce is built in stages and flavors are added at the end if appropriate.

This one clarification sent me straight to my kitchen to start experimenting with different Liquid, Thickening Agent, Flavor Combinations. And I hope it does for you.

As for making sauces healthy? Try these options,

	Slowly cook chopped onions and minced garlic over low heat, then blend in a blender with  tofu, rice milk, almond milk or coconut milk for a rich, creamy texture. When you cook the onions  slowly, they release a lot of flavor that enriches the flavor of the milk . For even more flavor, add fresh herbs to the onions while cooking.


	If you want a thicker sauce, then prior to adding the garlic and onions, blend cooked white beans, sweet potatoes or yams with any of these same types of milk.


	For something more like the vegetable stock that Chef Todd used to cook the quinoa in video #5 of this series, simply simmer  vegetables, such as carrots, onions, celery, garlic, and spices, for  about 30 minutes, starting with cold water. Strain the vegetables from the broth and return the broth to your pan.  Continue to simmer the broth on a high temperature to reduce the sauce to about  half the quantity, which will intensify the flavor. If you are  serving meat or fish, pour this sauce into the pan in which you just  cooked the meat or fish, and it will add even more flavor.


	If you want to thicken a sauce without adding flour, and you want an alternative to the potatoes or beans I mentioned earlier, then a good alternative  is to mix a little arrowroot with water. You can get arrowroot powder at most natural foods stores, and some grocery store chains.  Add it your sauce at the end just a pinch at a time  and continue to cook for just about 3-4 more minutes, giving it time to  thicken.


	Finally, pesto and salsas are fantastic lower-calorie alternatives to sauce.

If you need more help with &quot;sauce-making&quot;, check out Chef Todd&#039;s website &quot;Web Cooking Classes&quot; by clicking here. At the site, he goes into explicit detail about how to make all kinds of sauces for various types of cooking situations.

Great  news - not only has Chef Todd agreed to be on a podcast,  but  it&#039;s going  to be a video podcast straight from his kitchen, so he  can  demonstrate  all his tips and tricks, and answer your questions. So  if  you have a  special technique you&#039;d like to see (ok, maybe he&#039;s not  going to make an  entire Julia Childs recipe, but I&#039;ll be he sure can  impress us), then  simply leave your comments and questions below, and  I&#039;ll ask  Chef Todd  during the video podcast!</itunes:summary>

Yesterday, I promised to reveal to you Chef Todd&#039;s quicker, simpler version of Julia Child&#039;s Beef Bourguignon, using his knowledge of basic cooking methods over Julia&#039;s recipe.

Here&#039;s what he wrote to me:

&quot;Hi Ben,

Thanks for the challenge. It was an eye-opener and should turn out to be a great procedure for you to share with your subscribers.

When I look at the Julia and Julie Beef Bourguignon, I see two simple words – braising method.  To update this 40 year old recipe, here’s how I’d apply basic cooking methods and creativity to yield beef bourguignon (total time - one hour, using one pan!):

1)     Cooking by basic methods skips the first step of using a calculator to scale the recipe.  From standard portions, I know I need 4 ounces of protein per person, so the only measurement I’ll make is 8 ounces of beef to start.

2)     Julia Child’s recipe has me using 5 different pans.  This adds to clean-up time.  To start, I’d use one pan, my covered 12 inch braising pan.

3)     The original recipe calls for beurre manie, and uncooked roux, to thicken the gravy after 2 ½ hours of cooking.  Roux without the proteins cooked out of the flour will leave a pasty taste in your gravy.  The first change I’d make is dredging the dried beef cubes in flour to start.  The combination of flour and fat in my braising pan will yield a cooked roux, and eliminate 2 pans.

4)     After browning the dredged meat, I’d add all the vegetables I desire.  Whether onions, garlic, carrots, celery, or tomatoes, I get to choose what goes into the dish, and the amount of each.  This eliminates a lot of back-and-forth to the recipe book, and another dirtied pan.

5)     After sautéing the beef and vegetables, now is the time to deglaze the pan with red wine.  This will lift any fond and roux from the bottom of the pan.  After all the wine has evaporated, you can start to build the gravy by adding some beef broth.

6)     Cover the pan and simmer on the stove top, or place in your oven until the flavors combine, the gravy thickens, the meat tenderizes, and vegetables cook.

That’s how I see this recipe as a basic cooking method that can be accomplished with any substitutions of ingredients, and any amount of ingredients you’d like.

Recipes are a great way to get ideas of what to cook, but an understanding of basic cooking methods are ALWAYS necessary to infuse the skilled judgment of the cook.  Cooking with your eyes, ears, nose, and fingers always gives you power over the shortcomings of recipes.&quot;
So - thanks to Chef Todd, I think we all have a great classic &quot;recipe&quot;that will impress without the work!

And by the way, if you haven&#039;t been to Chef Todd&#039;s website &quot;Web Cooking Classes&quot;, I&#039;d certainly recommend you check it out - you can click here to go there. There&#039;s nothing like learning to cook, having fun, and being entertained - all at the same time!

Yesterday, I promised to reveal to you Chef Todd&#039;s quicker, simpler version of Julia Child&#039;s Beef Bourguignon - using his knowledge of basic cooking methods over Julia&#039;s recipe.

...by the way, you&#039;re going to love video #6 in this series!

Great  news - not only has Chef Todd agreed to be on a podcast, but  it&#039;s going  to be a video podcast straight from his kitchen, so he can  demonstrate  all his tips and tricks, and answer your questions. So if  you have a  special technique you&#039;d like to see (ok, maybe he&#039;s not going to make an  entire Julia Childs recipe, but I&#039;ll be he sure can impress us), then  simply leave your comments and questions below, and I&#039;ll ask  Chef Todd  during the video podcast!</itunes:summary>

Be sure to check out the end of this post for even more from Chef Todd!

I finally saw “Julia and Julie”, the movie. You know the one, right?

It&#039;s about how twenty-something home cook Julie Powell recreated 524 recipes in 365 days from Julia Child’s cookbook “Mastering the Art of French Cooking”.

It’s a great movie, especially if you’re a fan of food, cooking, and Julia Child.

If only Hollywood could take over ALL cookbooks, because in Julia and Julie, every Julia Child recipe comes out perfectly on the first try for Julie Powell, a home cook with no culinary training!

She makes hollandaise perfectly the first time.

Her Spinach Souffle looks like a magazine photo on the first shot.

Hollywood makes everything easier.

I have great respect and admiration for Julia Child.  She brought high-level French cooking ideas to American households at the precise time that TV dinners and convenience foods were being mass-produced in the US.  Julia’s degree from Le Cordon Bleu in Paris enabled her to write these recipes because of her extensive culinary education combined with her passion for food and cooking.

In the movie, Julie Powell has no culinary education, but does have passion for food.

So I asked Chef Todd Mohr the following question:
&quot;Is passion enough to be able to prepare every recipe in Julia Child’s cookbook?&quot;
His answer?
&quot;Unfortunately, NO, it’s not.&quot;
Not in real life at least.

Take the centerpiece of the movie, Julia&#039;s Beef Bourguignon recipes.

It’s not that Boeuf Bourguignon is a particularly difficult recipe to complete, but as with all recipes, especially Julia Child recipes, there are basic cooking methods behind the recipes that need to be understood.  Following lines of a recipe without knowing the visual cues is like driving your car blindfolded, but with a road map.

You may have all the directions, but you’ll miss all the visual information necessary to know how your trip is progressing, and to know when you’ve reached your destination.

So - I challenged Chef Todd to prove his point, and I asked him the following:
&quot;How would you use basic cooking method to simplify Julia Child&#039;s famous recipe?&quot;
Stay tuned to the next post to find out what he said!
Great news - not only has Chef Todd agreed to be on a podcast, but  it&#039;s going to be a video podcast straight from his kitchen, so he can  demonstrate all his tips and tricks, and answer your questions. So if  you have a special technique you&#039;d like to see (ok, maybe he&#039;s not going to make an entire Julia Childs recipe, but I&#039;ll be he sure can impress us), then simply leave your comments and questions below, and I&#039;ll ask  Chef Todd during the video podcast!</itunes:summary>

Along with each video in this series, I&#039;ll be giving you extra tips from Chef Todd Mohr,  and be sure to read the end of this post for a special announcement about Chef Todd coming onto the podcast! I still need your help!

During a discussion we recently had, Chef Todd told me that most people buy so many kitchen tools and gadgets that they don&#039;t really need.

As a matter of fact, he recommends just 4 essential kitchen knives.

Here&#039;s his synopsis of what you really need for successful kitchen prep:
French (Chef’s) knife- Offers the greatest versatility for most cutting and chopping. Used in a rocking motion where knife tip always touches the cutting board.

Boning knife - thinner, pointed, used for cleaning meats and removing bones.

Paring knife – small, short knife, most often used for cutting fruit. Used in one hand, pulling the edge toward your palm in opposition to pressure applied by the thumb

Slicing knife – longer knife with serrated edge, for cutting bread and slicing meats in a sawing fashion.
Proper knife skills are essential for the type of quick and easy kitchen prep that Chef Todd teaches. You&#039;ve probably been to his website by now, but in case you haven&#039;t, you should know that he gives out a bunch of other cooking secrets in other free videos on his website, along with online cooking classes! Click here to check it out. 
Great news - not only has Chef Todd agreed to be on a podcast, but it&#039;s going to be a video podcast straight from his kitchen, so he can demonstrate all his tips and tricks, and answer your questions. So if you have a special technique you&#039;d like to see (like how to use the knives above, how to chop a tomato, or how to make butter have less fat), then simply leave your comments and questions below, and I&#039;ll ask Chef Todd during the video podcast!</itunes:summary>

As you learned in the last video from my friend and fellow make-you-healthier villain, Chef Todd Mohr, those old Martha Stewart recipes don&#039;t work!

And neither do many other popular cookbook recipes.

Why would these people and publishers have recipes that don’t work?

And who is Chef Todd to make such a bold claim?

Well, I posed this question to him and he explained to me that recipes don’t teach you to cook any more than having sheet music teaches you to play piano, which you learned if you watched part 1 of this video series.

Certainly, the step-by-step instructions of the best cookbook recipes can be reassuring to many home cooks.  It’s much easier to follow someone else’s opinion of how something should be cooked than to create your own recipe.

But the sacrifice you make in following a food TV network recipe is that you’re trying to duplicate what was originally created by some food TV show.
Your stove is different than the “test kitchen”.
Theirs is gas, yours is electric.
Your pans are made of a different metal than theirs were.
Your chicken breast is twice as thick as the one used to write the recipe.
With all these variables, how can a written recipe, even if it is a Martha Stewart recipe, be duplicated exactly every time by people of varying skill levels in the kitchen?

It simply can’t happen.


Rather than reading piano sheet music to learn one song, you should learn to actually PLAY the piano by studying the notes and how they combine for a melody.

Instead of following a recipe to create one meal, learn to cook by studying Chef Todd&#039;s basic cooking methods to create your own recipes and meals that come from your creativity and desired ingredients.

When you create the recipe, you’re better than the best cookbook recipes, and Martha Stewart recipes won’t ever let you down again.

Over the next few posts here at BenGreenfieldFitness.com, in a series of  free cooking videos, you&#039;re going to be fully exposed to these cooking secrets, from the  talented and highly entertaining Chef Todd Mohr from WebCookingClasses.com.

Chef Todd Mohr has even developed an entire  cooking system based on this philosophy and this system has thought  thousands of people around the world to cook! If you want to know more  about Chef Todd, click here to check out this free video, where Todd reveals his #1 Chef Secret for Creating  Amazing Meals at Home.

I think you&#039;ll agree that this is going to be a great series of  videos this week with Chef Todd. In case you can&#039;t see the video at the  top of this post, just click here to open it in a new window.

		<itunes:summary>[video http://www.bengreenfieldfitness.com/videos/Ben1Mission.flv Introducing Chef Todd Mohr!]

Over the next 6 days here at BenGreenfieldFitness.com, in a series of free cooking videos, I want to introduce you to a friend of mine: the talented and highly entertaining Chef Todd Mohr from WebCookingClasses.com, a revolutionary, healthy cooking instructor who I met last week while I was in New York. And at the bottom of this post, I have a special question for you.

Why is Chef Todd Mohr so revolutionary, you ask?

Well, his philosophy on healthy cooking without recipes is totally unique. He has truly changed the way I view cooking and I know it will have the same impact on you.

You see, Chef Todd Mohr believes that most of us don&#039;t really know how to cook!

Sure we can follow a recipe - sometimes, especially if we&#039;ve made it before and figured out its &quot;quirks.&quot;  But we don&#039;t really know the techniques we used and, worse yet - we don&#039;t understand the cooking methods that recipes call upon.

Why is this important?

Well...

As Chef Todd explained to me, and talks about in the video above, your cooking methods are EVERYTHING in Cooking!

Understanding how things work and why things happen will change the way you cook forever. And so, over the next 6 days, I will be releasing a series of videos from Chef Todd Mohr that will teach you and enable you, among other things, to:
 * Create awesome meals at home with whatever you&#039;ve got on hand
 * Cook quickly and easily, with confidence
 * &quot;Fix&quot; recipes that don&#039;t come out to your liking
 * Apply quick fixes to dishes WHILE you are cooking, so there are no &quot;mess-ups&quot;,&quot;do-overs&quot; or wasted food.
 * Make up YOUR OWN recipes
Chef Todd Mohr has even developed an entire cooking system based on this philosophy and this system has thought thousands of people around the world to cook! If you want to know more about Chef Todd, click here to, then watch the free video above, then also check out this free video, where Todd reveals his #1 Chef Secret for Creating Amazing Meals at Home.

I think you&#039;ll agree that this is going to be a great series of videos this week with Chef Todd. In case you can&#039;t see the video at the top of this post, just click here to open it in a new window.

		<itunes:summary>In this December 29, 2008 podcast, I interview personal trainer, strength and conditioning coach, and health specialist Paul Eastwood about dairy products and the effect of milk on the human body. There is quite a bit of confusion about whether dairy is good for fat loss, human performance, and overall health, and Paul and I have a conversation about some important things to consider before you tip back that glass of milk or grab another serving of string cheese. Included in our discussion:
Is milk a “low glycemic index” food, and if so, is that a good thing?
How has the dairy industry changed over the past century, for better or worse?
Is raw milk even safe? How can you get it?
Are soy milk, almond milk, or rice milk good alternatives to cow milk?
What about milk from animals other than cows?
What about osteoporosis? Is that a concern for non-milk drinkers?
For further resources, Paul recommended the following books:
“The Deadly Dairy Deception” by Dr. Robert Bibb
“Don’t Drink Your Milk” by Dr. Frank Oski 
“How to Eat, Move, and Be Healthy” by Paul Chek
If you have more questions about this topic, you can reach Paul Eastwood at paullifefit@hotmail.com.
