Recipes from Eliza: 

Roasties: Bring a pot of water to the boil, peel and cut the potatoes in half/quarters/eights/whatever you want, salt the water and parboil the potatoes (about 15 minutes). Meanwhile, set oven to 375 and preheat a baking tray with a few tablespoons of oil. Once the potatoes are tender, strain the water, and shake the potatoes around in a colander or pot to rough up the edges. Tip them onto the preheated tray, add a few cloves of garlic, rosemary and sea salt, and roast, turning occasionally until crisssssspy, about 40 minutes. Good with ketchup/tomato chutney.

Hasselback potatoes: peel the potatoes and boil them in salted water until tender, then drain them and allow them to cool enough to handle. Preheat oven to 375. Cut thin slices into the potatoes about 3/4 of the way through, then place on a baking tray, drizzle with oil & sprinkle with salt, and roast until crisp! For salt & vinegar, add 2 cups of white vinegar to the water when you’re boiling the potatoes, soak them in vinegar while they’re cooling or drizzle vinegar over just before baking. Fab with gravy as it gets in all the cracks!!

Smashed potatoes: boil small waxy potatoes (like new potatoes or yukon golds), unpeeled for 35 minutes. Meanwhile, chop two tablespoons of capers, a clove of garlic (optional), zest of one lemon and a big handful of herbs (I like parsley, mint or dill) until it forms a paste, & set aside. Once the potatoes are tender, preheat a frying pan/ cast iron skillet with a couple tablespoons of olive oil, and add the drained potatoes. Crush the potatoes slightly under a flat surface, and fry for 10 minutes or until crisp, turning occasionally. Sprinkle the sauce over the hot potatoes and serve.

5.11 Eating In with Eliza Khinsoe!

Today, we’re talking about FOOD and COOKING while in quarantine with podcaster, nutrition counselor, and COOK Eliza Khinsoe. 

Bookclub:

Fearing the Black Body / Black Owned Bookstores / bookclub webpage

  • From Yeli: The biggest idea or theme that stuck with me throughout the entirety of the book was the way that storytelling and media perpetuated so many racist, fatphobic ideals. From the Renaissance paintings in the first chapter to the news stories in the Epilogue, these horrible ideas have been spread in very insidious ways that are still alive and thriving. Something that was particularly shocking to me in the Epilogue is how Dr. Strings mentions that “The medical field has been the most recent institution to enter the fray” of fatphobia and diet culture. It’s extremely difficult for me to imagine a world where doctors and medicine overall isn’t completely engrained in dieting and being your smallest self. There is also definitely a connection between medicine being so fatphobic and Black women being more at-risk of not being believed or being misdiagnosed in medical settings. As someone who wants to write and tell stories for a living, I have a lot of journaling to do regarding storytelling and the ways that my own storytelling is complicit or upholds anti-Black racism and fatphobia, and how to dismantle that.

  • If you feel like you missed the train on the bookclub, don’t worry! We’ve got the next few weeks for you to catch up using the book club page on our website! Then, for the final episode of our Staying In series, we’re going to have on a special guest to talk about the book in full! It’s going to be very… VERY good. We hope you’ll join us! You still have time to get the book!

CALL TO ACTION: 

Last week your call to action was to learn about housing justice, and how it’s a part of anti-racism and Black Liberation. This week, we’re asking you to extend that knowledge to the #NoBodyIsDisposable Campaign. From their site, 

“Disabled people, fat people, elders, and people with AIDS or other illnesses are being specifically targeted for denial of life-saving care during care rationing. These triage policies disproportionately target people of color, poor folks, immigrants, queer and trans folks, incarcerated and homeless folks, and others already considered disposable by capitalist, white supremacist society.

We say NO! People of color and disabled people deserve to live — EUGENICS WILL NOT HAPPEN ON OUR WATCH!” 

To support the campaign, complete these three steps:

 1) Sign the campaign’s open letter to care providers and hospitals. 

2) Use their provided links to contact your government officials. 

3) SPREAD THE WORD about #NoBodyIsDisposable with a solidarity selfie — find out more about that on nobodyisdisposable.org
