  food standards

  I think there’s no point in eating meat unless the animal was raised well, was free to roam, lived in an unstressful environment and was in great health. It makes total sense that what we put into our bodies is optimal in every way, to in turn give us maximum goodness.

  I also think that we should all be striving to eat more plant-based meals that hero veg, beans and pulses, and enjoying better-quality meat, less often. With this in mind, please choose organic, free-range or higher-welfare meat whenever you can, making sure beef or lamb is grass-fed. The same goes for eggs and anything containing eggs, such as pasta – choose free-range or organic, and please choose organic stock.

  When it comes to buying fish, make sure you choose responsibly sourced wherever possible – look for the MSC logo, or talk to your fishmonger or the guys at the fish counter in your local supermarket and take their advice. Try to mix up your choices, choosing seasonal, sustainable options as they’re available.

  With staple dairy products, like milk, yoghurt and butter, I couldn’t encourage you more to trade-up to organic whenever possible. It is slightly more expensive, but we’re talking pennies not pounds, so this is a much easier trade-up than with meat. Plus, every time you buy organic, you are voting for a better food system.

  a note on freezing

  Let food cool before freezing, breaking it down into portions so it cools quicker and you can get it into the freezer within 2 hours of cooking. Make sure everything is well wrapped, meat and fish especially, and labelled for future reference. Thaw in the fridge before use. Generally, if you’ve frozen cooked food, don’t freeze it again after you’ve reheated it.
