Ingredients Frequently Used in Kalyn's Kitchen

Ingredients listed on this page are out-of-the-ordinary products I love to use in my kitchen. When the company has a website, I've given a link to online information about the product. (Links to the products at Amazon.com are provided in case you can't find these ingredients where you live. Kalyn's Kitchen does earn a few cents on the dollar if you order a product through Amazon.com links. Thanks!)

Hi!

I am a University of California trained medical ethnobotanist. When I did my Ph.D. field research for two years among the Yucatec Maya I saw they used purslane. Because I was focusing on a particular subset of their medical plant uses I never learned about how they prepared it for regular meals.

If you have a source for Purslane oleracae which I might buy here in the U. S. I'd love to know and address for the source so that I might try using it meals.

I would prefer that you not give my e-mail address to others. I am busy enough.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Dawn, the only place I've gotten purslane is from my garden; I've never seen it for sale, although I've heard it's sold as a salad green in Europe. Sorry I can't help you.

Hi Kalyn:

I just found your site and am so encouraged. My husband and I will start phase 1 tomorrow. We both really want to live a healthier lifestyle and end the diet ups and downs...your recipes will certainly help...

Have you ever used the liquid stevia as a sweetner in any of your recipes...I try to stay away from the other artificial sweetners.

Thanks and keep it up,

Kim

Kim, good luck on phase one. Truly I don't think it's that hard to find tasty things to eat, you just have to make a mental shift. I haven't used liquid stevia, but I've heard good things about it. I am a huge fan of Agave nectar though, although it's not for phase one. I think it's delicious and pretty widely available. I don't use a lot of Splenda, but do use it once in a while in small amounts.
