Let's take a look at the many ways, food can become again a gastronomic experience. Besides its nutrient power, citrus is a great flavoring agent. Citrus is acidic, making it a natural tenderizer for meats and poultry. All meats are muscles, thus their protein fibers are tough and are in need of some breaking down. Citrus like fat, will provide moisture to foods, so use it in place, whole or part, of fat in marinades.
Citrus is also good in salad dressings.
Cut down on some of the oil, by adding orange, lime or lemon juice to homemade salad dressing. And don't forget of the zest of the foods. The outer portion of the skin of the fruit has aromatic oils that boost the flavor of food. Add to dressings, marinades and salads. Try to use the juice of fresh fruit rather than the bottled stuff.
