Cheryl Garrison's recipe for Marinated Flank Steak
Marinade: 2 cups hot strong coffee 1/4 cup honey 1 tablespoon ground ginger 1 tablespoon soy sauce 1.1/2 pounds flank steak |
What to do: In a flat glass caserole dish combine the coffee honey ginger and soy sauce. Place the mear in the dish and marinate in the fridge for 24 hours. Remove the meat from the marinade. Prepare the grill. Grill the meat on each side for 5 minutes or place under the broiler (George Forman) for 10 minues. Let stand for 10 minutes before slicing. Slice the meat on an angle in thin slices. Serves 4 |
*Note: Due to the high heam content of this recipe, drink tea and serve this dish with low-iron vegetables such as 1/2 cup of green beans or 1/2 cup of fried cabbage and onions. Cheryl's recipies give details of the heme and non-heam iron intake per serving along with other information useful to anyone who is preparing food where iron intake needs to be controlled. click on underlined words to go to my glossary of terms Publisher.

Any Old Iron The book tells of my personal experience of Haemochromatosis Please click on the book image for more details about how I came to write it and how you can obtain a copy |
The Iron Disorders Institute Guide to Hemochromatosis This book has been my bible and reference book for many years and I have never found another book that is so clearly written and so well structured as it deals with many problems through case studies and has a comprehensive index. This is the only book once offered for sale by the British Society. It is authoritative and well written and I would not be without a copy. |
The Hemochromatosis Cookbook I have always enjoyed cooking but I was a little bit phased when I realized that I would have to cook differently to limit my iron intake. Cheryl Garrison's book, has been a great help to me in keeping me focused on this dietry requirement. Cheryl's husband suffers from our complaint and Cheryl whom I have known for several years, has worked intensely to find tasty and interesting low iron dishes. She is rather an authority on G.H. and ran a lively forum for the Iron Institute of America. |

Have you considered a Kindle? As far as the Kindle is concerned..... don't be put off because it is a new-fangled piece of technology or because 'it isn't the same as holding a book' ! Of course its new technology and of course it isn't like holding a book, but most people reading this are computer literate and the Kindle is basically a compact computer, so if you can use the machine you're reading this on, then you'll easily cope with a Kindle.The Kindle is smaller and lighter than a book, very neat and portable in fact. Click on the picture on the right and read more about them, I do most thoroughly recommend them especially if your eyes are giving you trouble reading. As you can see from the photo of me on the left, you can use it outside in sunlight. You know how housewives say that their Aga is 'the friend in the kitchen', well, my Kindle is 'my friend in my pocket'.
Best wishes to you all Alan |
