Five Vegetarian Principles
By Lily Barberio

Example: To Lower Blood Pressure, Be Faithfully Vegetarian Vegetables are also good for the patient of hypertension. They should preferably be taken raw. If they are cooked, it should be ensured that their natural juices are not burnt in the process of cooking.
Vegetables like cucumber, carrot, tomatoes, onion, radish, cabbage and spinach are best taken in their raw form. They may be cut into small pieces and sprinkled with a little salt and the juice of a lemon added to them so as to make them more palatable.

Add complexity to vegetables with bold spices, like cumin (toast the seeds to bump up the flavor), or exotic spice blends.
Crisp nuts and chewy dried fruit make grain dishes and salads more satisfying, while olive and nut oils and creamy sauces add a richness that elevates humble foods like beans. Roasting or braising vegetables gives them a luscious texture, not to mention a deep flavor.
Hearty grain or bean dishes should be offset by something light, raw and refreshing–like a spinach salad.
A meze assortment (a buffet of small dishes) makes a vegetarian meal more exciting, because it offers a wide range of flavors.
Avoid oaky and tannic wines, which pair best with red meat and other fatty foods; instead, opt for fruity wines with soft textures, like Regaleali’s Rosso, Rosato and Bianco from the Sicilian estate Tasca d’Almerita.
