Title: Schmaltz and Gribenes
Post by: africanmeat on July 07, 2014, 10:34:28 AM

Hi Guys
sorry I was   away for long time ,got back from Israel last week and dived Straight in to work .
Picked up a bit of weight so I started  a new diet   . Banting  diet. Low carbohydrate high fat.
http://www.health24.com/Diet-and-nutrition/Nutrition-basics/Tim-Noakes-diet-comes-out-tops-20130210
So no more  pizza , no more bread , no more potatoes , just meat , nuts  egg’s , bacon and full cream
Cheese  . veggies and fish .

So for the first time my wife allowed me to do schmaltz .

Here is the way my Granny used to do it .

1. cut the chicken skin  in to small pieces and fry in a pan with  a few  drops of water . salt and pepper ,

Oh most definitely here too! Bread goes bad around this house. Potatoes are eaten only once or twice a
month. Mostly protein! Looks really good Ahron!

thanks guys .
i feel embarrassed to call it a diet .
i must eat a lot of fat from animals .  like bacon , eggs , full fat cream ,meat .butter ,cheese ,  avocado . more and more fat .
after 1 week i lost 1kg or 2.2 lb. so i am happy .
