Protective Diet Class #276 Notes:
Mastering PD Cooking Techniques featuring Plant-Based Stroganoff

Cooking Techniques to Master
- Implement Foundational Time-Saving PD Kitchen Systems
- Manage your Protective Diet Pantry so you always have needed dry goods on hand (PD-Ed classes #032, #033, #087).
- Regularly restock fresh staples (PD-Ed classes #034, #117). The Fresh Restock completes your essential inventory.
- Create a regular rhythm of restocking fresh staples, and Set Up For Success (SUS) of needed condiments for the week.
- Remove the guesswork. Read through the recipe completely before beginning to cook. There is education in every section.
- Set up your kitchen for efficiency. Prep Time listed on the recipe takes into account a kitchen set up for efficiency.
- Post frequently used recipes inside the cupboard door of your prep area for quick reference.
- Clean as you go with the goal of touching each item only once: use it, rinse it, load it in the dishwasher or put it away.
- Plate your food and pack lunch up for tomorrow before you sit down to eat.
- Dry Steaming Greens
- Clean salad and cooking greens when you get home from the grocery store for quick and easy addition to meals all week.
- Dry steam greens as the first step of meal preparation each day. If you are just getting started, add this layer of protection when you begin your 50/50 plate practice to boost nitric oxide production for endothelial health & perfect blood flow.
- Tofu Techniques
- Protective Diet recipes use tofu prepared in one of three ways: fresh, fresh-pressed, or frozen-defrosted-pressed.
- Stock tofu in both the refrigerator and freezer. An inventory of four boxes in each location is recommended.
- Differentiate frozen tofu by marking it with an “X” using a permanent marker before freezing.
- As part of your weekly SUS, pull a box of tofu out of the freezer to defrost in the fridge for meals that include Crumbles.
- If the tofu in your refrigerator is approaching its expiration date, mark it with an “X” and transfer to the freezer indefinitely.
- If a recipe uses fresh-pressed tofu, squeeze it in a tofu press for several hours—overnight is recommended.
- Defrosted tofu presses instantly. Break into fourths, wring out like a sponge, crumble, and press/toss into marinade.
- Dry Browning Technique
- This technique builds a meaty, deep, caramelized flavor. Don’t skip it. Free flavor/aroma therapy for only the price of heat.
- Use the right size pan for even browning. The Cuisinart 5.5 quart casserole pan or a Dutch oven work well.
- Fit the burner to your pan for even heating. Small pan on large burner = burned edges. Start the heat at medium high.
- Allow browning to happen without stirring. Turn pan for even browning. Let vegetables release their liquid and boil off.
- Have garlic, liquid and spices ready to quickly add at just the right time. Add garlic just before deglazing liquid so it kisses the heat of the pan w/o overbrowning and becoming bitter. Add spices quickly to prevent liquid loss through evaporation.
- Pressure Cooking Pasta
- Pasta Choice: invite family members to choose the pasta. Both white and whole grain pasta are acceptable on a Protective Diet. Whole wheat pasta offers more plant fiber, which gut microbes digest/ferment into short-chained fatty acids, creating an anti-inflammatory effect and repairing the gut lining (Epithelium), keeping pathogens out of the bloodstream.
- Quick release pressure and toss the hot starchy pasta into the prepared sauce for a restaurant quality pasta dish.
- If the pasta seems undercooked, put the lid back on and let it sit for an additional minute or two to soften & soak up liquid.
- Remove the bowl from the instant pot before serving to keep the ridge of the cooking base clean.
- Herb Box Management
- Storing herbs properly will keep them fresh for weeks and give you an easy, protective flavor addition to every meal.
- Keep trying fresh parsley. It’s so protective and aromatic. Add it with the dry spices. The flavor will mellow while cooking.
- Place a towel under the cutting board to maintain the sharp knife blade. Cutting herbs with a sharp knife is a pleasure.
- Daily Salad Prep
- Boxes of mixed greens make it easy to get a salad on the table when the salad isn’t the star of the meal.
- Mix salad dressing early in the week, on your set up day, or quickly after dinner one night. It only takes a few minutes.
- Use delicate, tender greens first so they don’t go bad. Save romaine, cabbage and heartier greens for later in the week.
- Don’t dig into baby greens. Gently take some off the top. Bruising will introduce moisture and cause them to go bad faster.
- Toss mixed greens and protective dressing in a big bowl then plate it, rather than just drizzling dressing over top.
- Fermented fruits and vegetables are already chopped and ready to add protection and flavor to quick salads.
Cooking Tips
- A burn signal on the Instant Pot indicates you forgot to add the water or the lid needs to be cleaned of starch build-up.
- Always pre-heat the oven before adding food or starting bake time. Replace silicone mats if they lose their non-stick quality.
- The onion powder linked in Protective Diet recipes is highly recommended for superior flavor.
- Save used tamari bottles with the pour top—perfect for storing sauces in the refrigerator or PD Betterment Mouthwash.
- Time Saver: When you chop an onion, chop a second one and store for later. On a PD you will use multiple onions each week.
- Glass cutting boards are actually counter protectors & will dull your knife.
- Flash freeze extra tomato paste in 1T. portions and transfer to a freezer bag for convenient addition to future recipes.
- Set some mushrooms aside for another meal. Wrap and store in the coldest part of the fridge. No need to wash them.
- Mushroom alternative = Eggplant (prepare ahead of time and stir into sauce at the end) or just leave the mushrooms out:
- Preheat oven to 450˚. Dice eggplant, with skin on. Spread on lined baking sheet. Roast 20-25 minutes until browned.

Encouragement
- I love food. I want you to continue experiencing global cuisine and your comfort food favorites right in your own home.
- Being a walking billboard of health is your ticket to say whatever you want. Friends/medical professionals will not question you.
- Healthy is the new wealthy–to have our health and not be tied to medications and held down by doctor’s appointments.
