Collared greens?? Is that a type of green lettuce? Similiar to Romain lettuce? By the way you are very beautiful and sexy! :)

[KitchenScienceVixen]

Collard greens are a dark leafy green with a stronger flavor and heartier texture than lettuces. You could chop them and add them to a salad with salad greens or you can cook them. Lettuces are typically eaten raw. Try this recipe, it has only gotten good reviews. Thank you for the compliment.

nice

[columbalivia]

Thanks! I'll try to incorporate more of those options into my diet. Keep the great vids coming!

[columbalivia]

Great video, fish/seafood is one of my favourite things. After consuming cat fish I seemed to have developed somewhat of an allergy to it, and now I get the same sick feeling when eating all my favourite fish, is this common and how can I change this problem? I can eat raw sashimi/sushi fish with no problem though. I'm tired of eating meats and chicken because I want my fish back. Any suggestions would be appreciated :)

[KitchenScienceVixen]

Sashimi is very fresh and usually a higher grade than fish meant for cooking. Make sure you get the freshest fish you can find and eat it within 1-2 days for optimal freshness. Wild seafood is better than farm raised. Stick to salmon, atlantic cod and trout. Ask the fish monger to verify the freshness. Herring, sardines and canned tuna (troll-caught) are all great canned options, convenient and healthy.

Great hair. I like you site.

Im a vegetarian! But Im going to try to eat more collard greenseven though Im not a fan. I also currently talk cod liver oil and flax oil to help give me the omega 3 fats. Is that a good substitute in your opinion?

ps: very informative

[KitchenScienceVixen]

Thanks so much for watching my video and for your nice comments! All leafy greens are a good source of omega-3 fats, not because they are high in fat but because their ratio of omega-6 to omega-3 fats is well balanced 1:1. The balance is the key! Taking cod liver and flax oil and eating more leafy greens is a GREAT strategy! Keep doing what you are doing!

[nephildevil]

i must try making fish like this, looks excellent!

[kimbanyc]

Great stuff! I hope you do more.  Very useful.

[uandmeonutube]

thanks for you wonderful videos--you are not only beautiful but smart--my q is what is the best fish to get--besides salmon?2)best way to cook with herbs for fish-best herbs to cook with?best oil to fry.

thanks

[KitchenScienceVixen]

Hi, thank you for viewing my videos and for your compliments. Salmon is the best for omega 3 content but its certainly not the only option. Other good choices include trout, herring, mackerel & sardines. All seafood contains some Omega 3s because the fish eat algae: a source of omega3s. Cold water fish R highest because the omega 3s help increase blood flow which helps them stay warm Its an adaptation to their environment

[jrlynn79]

hey make some new videos please?im really wanting some new tips

[funnyguise]

You missed HEMP!!! The best source of EFAs without the worry of ocean pollution and/or anitbiotics used in fish farms.

[KitchenScienceVixen]

Sorry, but its not about just getting EFA's which do include the 3's & 6's, Its about getting more 3's to offset the "over-abundance" of 6's already so readily available in the diet. We dont need more sources of 6 we need more 3s. Hemp has both, not as much of a help as higher sources of 3's. Also, plant sources contain ALA but we need more EPA & DHA found in fish & algae. Seasonal fresh seafood is best but Farm Raised Tilapis is one of the few Farm raised fish that is OK

[funnyguise]

Good points... Thanks for replying!

[beauwoodro]

fun fun to much fun

[deltalions]

Elizabeth,

thank you for this smart and 'easy on the eyes' presentation :)

Who needs a Food Chane- run for a President.

[KitchenScienceVixen]

Thank you! I am so happy you liked it and I appreciate your support...and your nomination but I will stick to trying to save the world with disease fighting recipes & education instead of trying to fix the US;-)

[ryyonvin]

wow this video is so easy to follow. I wish they had shows like this on tv. Post more vids please!!!

[TheKitchenVixen]

Oh, thank you so much! Now can you please write to The Food Network and insist they give me a show. Please...I'll be your friend for life...I really need an in. Thanks for viewing and commenting. I am so happy you liked it!

[wannabetvchef]

A+, Elizabeth, I really like the new look.  The intro is cool. You gotta love a farmer's market don't you?

[asiura123]

This video explains Omega-3,6 briefly!

Thanks Elizabeth as always:)

[KitchenScienceVixen]

You are so very welcome! Due 2 time constraints 4 on-line videos & editing, much information was cut. Please understand that fish are "rich" in ALA type Omega-3's (which R converted to EPA&DHA) because their diet is dense in leafy greens. Fish do not consume many omega-6 sources which compete w/ Omega3s. We should try 4 the same goal but until we R there we also need 2 eat fish or marine algae sources (for vegans) 2 get the EPA & DHA directly while also reducing Omega6 sources: Processed stuff

[asiura123]

I'm vegan, so I need to eat seaweeds. Fortunatly, I love nori:)

[KitchenScienceVixen]

The best source of DHA for a vegan, are algae supplements. For EPA, if you eat eggs, get Omega-3 rich ones. Sorry, sea vegetables are not a great source as your soul source and neither are leafy greens. I did not get to tell my whole story because of major editing on the video. But by eating more leafy greens you get more ALA & hopefully reduce your intake of Omega-6 sources. Again, its always about balanace.

[funnyguise]

If you like the Japanese nori, check out Korean 'kim'. It's seasoned with sesame oil and salt.

[chocolatetank]

just enjoy eating everything,life is too short to deprive. There's no certain thing is 100% good or complete bad. Nice video though

[KitchenScienceVixen]

If its whole food as nature intended then UR correct If manufactured & full of chemicals then not so great. The obesity epidemic & chronic diseases R related 2 the development of processed foods Im just trying 2 get people back 2 basics w/ good info & motivation. I work in healthcare & C the result of poor diet. Strokes, heart disease & cancer Sometimes these people live a debilitated life as a result Then life is not so short after all

[lightlyheldfilms]

Wonderful! The form of the show is great. I am grateful for your lesson about why eating this tasty dish feels so good! Great job, Elizabeth and Tom!

[KitchenScienceVixen]

Thank you for watching. Ignore my last message. I read my emails backwards.

We appreciate your support!

[helencaswell]

I loved this video - the expert was cute and the meal looked both easy and yummy. Best of all the food seemed to be bursting with good health! I'm inspired!

[KitchenScienceVixen]

Hi Helen,

I am so happy you liked the video. Please do try the recipe. It is so easy & tasty and easy to adapt to whatever you have on hand, any other veggies, herbs, types of fish. Enjoy!...Elizabeth

[helencaswell]

Elizabeth - I enjoyed your response to the chocoholic.  ANYWAY - just one more quick question! It seems to this dish might be prepared ahead of time, wrapped up in the parchment and refrigerated - then cooked at the last minute. Is this possible, or will things get soggy over a couple of hours in there? THANK YOU!

[KitchenScienceVixen]

The only caveat is that the lemon juice would 'cook' the fish, that is how Ceviche works. But I think it would be fine to chop everything. Place the veggies & herbs on the parchement. Leave it covered in the fridge and then add the fish and lemon right before baking. That will certainly save time.

[luv2brnrbr]

Great videos, can't wait until your next one.

[KitchenScienceVixen]

Thank you so much, me too, but this one took forever to do but we are working on a system so please be patient and stay tuned...Thanks for viewing & commenting!...Elizabeth
