(Food-Beverage-News.Com, August 30, 2013 ) Philadelphia, Pennsylvania -- Hardly a week goes by without a new study telling us we're becoming more obese so it should come as no surprise that a recent report, published by Allrecipes.com and Meredith Publishing, highlighted that making and eating healthier meals is a key trend in home cooking for 2013.
Home cooking is often promoted as being a good way to increase control over what we eat. And one of the key factors in preparing healthy food at home is to measure ingredients accurately so that only the correct quantity - and nothing more – of ingredients such as cooking oil are added.
"Estimating the quantity of important but high calorie ingredients can make a huge difference to calorie intake." said David Hall, CEO of Natizo. "Measuring all ingredients accurately is the best way to ensure success whilst cooking and this is especially true when preparing healthy food and watching the calories."
Guessing the amount of high calorie ingredients and adding just one extra tablespoon of oil can add as much as 120 calories to a dish over and above the amount that should really be there. If everyone measured their ingredients accurately the potential for calorie reduction over time is huge.
Accurately measuring out each ingredient is often easier said than done. The easiest and quickest way to measure out low quantity ingredients is with the correct measuring spoons sizes.
"Everyone who cooks should be able to measure out their high calorie ingredients easily and accurately so we are offering an exclusive 60% discount on our measuring spoons set." said Hall.
Natizo produce a set of premium stainless steel measuring spoons in four sizes that are perfect for experienced and novice cooks. They are easy to use, nest together for easy storage and are dishwasher safe.
"We asked people what they don't like about their current measuring spoons before we started to design our spoons." said Hall. "As well as being strong and durable, our spoons have the sizes engraved into the handles and have a lifetime guarantee."
"There are a limited quantity of our measuring spoons available for this 60% discount, which runs for 3 days from July 30, 2013 by entering coupon code SPOON6OP when buying Natizo measuring spoons at Amazon.com." said Hall.
