Natural Mosquito Repellent

I live in Chiang Mai right now, the largest city in Northern Thailand.  While I love living here in this tropical paradise (it’s cheap too!) there’s just one thing that never fails to get me down: mosquitoes. 

Mosquitoes are everywhere in Chiang Mai.  From the moment I wake up until the moment I go to sleep (and even while I’m asleep, if I leave the window open) I’m nibbled by these nasty little creatures.   Some days I itch so badly I rub the skin from my ankles.  It’s truly awful.

The thing is, I really don’t like using mosquito repellent that’s full of DEET.  I’m assured that DEET use isn’t dangerous, but I just can’t convince myself that a solvent strong enough to melt plastic isn’t bad for my skin.  

Instead, I choose to use only a natural mosquito repellent – something that’s based on plants and herbs rather than chemicals cooked up in a factory.  #

Now, this is all well and good, but here’s the problem.  There are very few industry standards when it comes to natural mosquito repellents.  There are no governing bodies to rule on whether a repellent actually does what it claims, so you never know if the repellent is any good until you’ve tried it yourself.

It’s a tough job, choosing natural mosquito repellent, but I find that a little work pays off in the end.  You just need to persevere, try a few options and find a repellent that works for you.

Ive always been a big fan of cooking. Ive been trained in a great many styles and oddly have learned quite a bit from copying techniques while watching cooking shows such as Top Chef and the awesome and long running precursor Iron Chef.

Watching Chefs rise to the depths of creativity and designing amazing dishes in flavor and visuals really stimulated my creative side and opened up my vision of how expansive the world of culinary arts is. 

As a vegetarian, the choices can sometimes be limited if one doesnt keep their imagination open and deconstructs their recipes. A piece of eggplant can be transmuted into an amazing meatball and a properly prepared carrot can provide the crunch in a breakfast meal that was once held by fatty bacon.

One silly quote that people often say is “Dont trust a skinny chef,” and thats simply not true. You see, cooking in a commercial kitchen is a very athletic and fast paced activity. Cooks, Line Cooks, Chefs and Servers all dance around in a mad rush. I wouldnt even hire an overweight chef, nor would I trust them to provide me with helathy foods.

With this healthy attitude in mind I am often looking for organic vegetarian recipes to compile into our massive databse, so cooks around the world can easily find and use our recipes. We accept submissions, so if you practice the healthy cooking style or organic and vegetarian products, check us out and make your own contribution!
