<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial; text-align: center;"> <span style="font-size: large;"> by Victoria Challancin</span></span><br />
<span style="color: #38761d; font-family: Arial; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial; text-align: center;">The delights of Mexican cooking are seemingly endless to me, but one dish that holds a firm hold in my heart is<i> posole</i> (also <i>pozole). </i>The word <i>posole</i> simply means "hominy," which is dried corn that has been soaked in an alkaline mineral lime solution, which softens the kernels and loosens the hulls. But <i>posole </i>also refers to a rich stew made from the hominy that is served throughout Mexico, varying in style and color from region to region, home to home.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial; text-align: center;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial; text-align: center;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial; text-align: center;">Small restaurants, called <i>posolerias </i>(yes, also <i>pozolerias</i>) can be found all over Mexico. (One of my favorites is in the city of Oaxaca, which when I first discovered it, changed my eating life forever--I have also sought out similar places whenever possible and have never been disappointed, but I digress). The only dish served in these specialty restaurants is, of course, <i>posole--</i>usually in all three flavors: red, green, and white. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial; text-align: center;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial; text-align: center;">Before I give you this startlingly delicious recipe, let me give you a little background, because, Dear Readers, you know that is what I do!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial; text-align: center;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial; text-align: center;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial; text-align: center;"><span style="color: #38761d; font-size: large;"> <b>What is Hominy, Anyway?</b></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial; text-align: center;">Simply put, hominy is simply dried corn that has been soaked in an alkaline solution, which, as I said above, loosens the hulls from the kernels and also softens the kernels themselves. In Mexico, this process is called nixtamalization, or <i>nixtamal </i> (a process that has been around for thousands of years)<i>, </i>and is usually accomplished by using a solutions of calcium hydroxide, or <i>cal. </i>My own grandmother slaked her own corn using an alkaline mix of water and wood ash. However it is done, it produces an ingredient that is indispensable in the cooking of Mexico; without it, we wouldn't have corn tortillas or any of the other delicious dishes made with corn <i>masa, </i>the dough made from the treated corn which is mixed with water.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial; text-align: center;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial; text-align: center;">Why is hominy so healthy? The process of nixtamalizing the corn makes the nutrient niacin more easily assimilated by the digestive tract, rendering it more nutritious.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial; text-align: center;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial; text-align: center;"><span style="color: #38761d; font-size: large;"><b> How is Hominy Used?</b></span></span><br />
<br />
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li><span style="font-family: Arial;">To make corn tortillas</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial;">To make <i>tamales</i></span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial;">To make <i>atole</i>, a thick drink made from ground nixtamalized corn with milk or water and the addition of chocolate, vanilla, <i>pilloncillo</i> (unrefined sugar) and other flavors</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial;">To make <i>posole, </i>a rich stew made of pork, chicken, or seafood</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial;">To make grits, that Southern dish dear to my heart</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial;">To make a variety of Mexican <i>antojitos, </i>or little cravings, most of which are made from corn</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial;">Corn tortilla tacos</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial;"><i>Tostadas</i></span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial;"><i>Quesadillas</i></span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial;"><i>Chalupas, sopes, gorditas,</i> and on and on--so many delicious corn-based dishes to choose from here in Mexico</span></li>
</ul>
<br />
<span style="color: #38761d; font-size: large;"><b> <span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">What is <i>Posole, </i>the dish?</span></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Basically, <i>posole </i>is a stew made from hominy, which can be based on chicken, pork, or seafood--or a combination. It is often served at celebrations in Mexico.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">There are three main types:</span><br />
<br />
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><i>Posole verde</i>--this green version could contain tomatillos, epazote, cilantro, green chiles, and green pumpkin seeds</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><i>Posole rojo--</i>the type of <i>posole </i>most popular here in the state of Guanajuato, Mexico, where I live, is made from one or several dried red chiles, such as <i>guajillo, piquin</i>, or <i>ancho.</i></span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><i>Posole verde--</i>(my favorite) is made without any additional red or green sauce</span></li>
</ul>

The marinating Garlic-Lime Shrimp<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #38761d; font-size: x-large;"><b> The Garnishes</b></span><br />
One of the joys of eating this stew is the plate of garnishes that accompanies it. There are regional variations, but a common selection of ingredients would be:<br />
<br />
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li>Avocado</li>
<li>Limes</li>
<li>Cilantro</li>
<li>Onion (white only, please)</li>
<li>Shredded iceberg lettuce or cabbage</li>
<li>Radishes</li>
<li>Tostadas or pork rind</li>
<li>Sour cream (occasionally served to spread on the tostada)</li>
<li>Dried oregano, a must</li>
<li>Finely diced serrano or jalapeño chile (not in the picture, but we did use it)</li>
</ul>
<br />
<br />

<span style="color: #38761d; font-size: large;"><b> About this Recipe</b></span><br />
What caught my eye with this recipe is marinating and cooking of the shrimp apart from the basic soup/stew. It is so easy to overcook shrimp, I knew I would love this technique, and I did. The result of the separate cooking of the shrimp and the addition of some of the uncooked chile/tomatillo mixture yielded a bright, fresh flavor. Utterly delicious.<br />

<i style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 10pt;">Cooks notes: </i><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 10pt;">I played with both of the versions mentioned here and came up with this. Canned hominy is probably already soft and may just need heating (I have never used it and don't really know). In class we used a plastic pouch of pre-cooked hominy that still needed to be cooked for at least a half an hour. Regardless of the type you use, the result will be chewy with a slightly nutty flavor.</span></div>

<span style="color: #b45f06;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
At the risk of sounding trite, I confess that I have long thought that life is just a little better once mango season begins. A bit brighter, a little more healthy, substantially more poetic. In addition to admitting that I love to eat flowers, I can also say that I like to eat mangoes for similar reasons: They taste like perfume, they evoke poetry, they give me an excuse to wax philosophical, if a bit silly.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Nowadays, we can get mangoes all year long. Before our own glorious season begins here in Mexico, they happily sneak their way up from South America even during the winter. No more waiting anxiously for the Mexican season to start. No more guessing will it be Manilas or Ataulfos that make their first appearance. No more biting fingernails dreading the end of the season. I buy more kilos than I care to say each week...eating them with abandon, putting them in everything, relishing the juice running down my chin...and just generally being a hedonist.</div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Building the tiramisu: a layer of soaked savoiardi </span></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So when I saw a similar recipe to this one online last week, I knew I would have to make this mango tiramisu for the stunning conclusion to an Italian Cooking Class I was teaching to Mexican cooks. No, you probably won't find it in Italy. Yes, it was divine. Cream, mascarpone, orange liqueur, and mangoes? Seriously, what is there in this inspired combination that won't inspire weeping?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #e69138; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b>Tiramisù</b></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I looked at a number of recipes, and cringed a bit when I saw it called "Mangomisu." Really, why do we do that? <i>Tiramisù </i>is an Italian word that actually refers to "pick me up," "cheer me up" or "lift me up." So what then would a "mangomisu" do, though I can't deny that mangoes in general lift and cheer me to no end. The dessert in Italy, loved throughout the world, consists of layers of sponge cake or savoiardi (ladies" fingers) soaked in coffee and brandy or liqueur with powdered chocolate and mascarpone cheese.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">And for those of you who love words as I do, <i>tiramisù </i>in Italian can be used in non-food related ways to express sincerity in any given situation, especially when trying to convey a true level of genuineness. And wait, there is more: the word can also be used to indicate a feeling of being misunderstood, particularly when feeling that genuineness and honesty is being impugned. How great is that?</span><br />

<span style="color: #e69138; font-size: x-large;"><b>A Few Facts about Mangoes:</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #e69138;">(Some of this is from mango.org, but other bits are from around the web)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Mangoes originated in India over 5000 years ago</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Mangoes seeds started their journey around the world via humans from Asia to the Middle East, East Africa, and South America beginning around 300 to 400 A.D.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Mangoes are related to cashews and pistachios--is it any wonder they are so tasty?</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">A mango tree can grow as tall as 100 feet</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The bark, leaves, skin and pit of the mango have been used in folk remedies for centuries</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Mangoes are often considered to be a sacred fruit in India because it is believed that Buddha meditated under a mango tree</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">There are over 1000 (yes, one thousand) cultivars of mangoes</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Mangoes can cause contact dermatitis to the lips, gums, or tongue of susceptible people (I remember fondly how my father would peel mangoes for my mother--we had our own tree--just for that reason; she could eat them, but would break out if she touched the outside part)</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Mangoes are the national fruit of India, Pakistan, and the Philippines and the national tree of Bangladesh</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The paisley pattern, which developed in India, is based on the shape of a mango</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In Hinduism, the perfectly ripe mango is often held by Lord Ganesha as a symbol of attainment (i.e. of perfection)</span></li>
</ul>

<span style="color: #e69138; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><b>Nutrition:</b></span></div>
<div>

<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Gently squeeze a mango to judge its ripeness; it will give slightly when ripe and will ripen further at room temperature over a few days</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Ripe mangoes smell like heaven (my words, not the Mango Board's)</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Color is not a determinate of ripeness--red does not mean ripe.</span></li>

The finished masterpiece--of which the students were justifiably proud</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<i>Cook's Notes: </i>This recipe, as written, didn't provide enough soaking syrup for our dish. <br />We had to make extra. I think using two mangoes and two pits and doubling the other syrup ingredients would take care of that. The extra mango pulp in the filling would not detract. The flavor is heavenly with only one mango, but delicate. A bit more pulp would simply give it some "punch." </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
The original recipe does not include liqueur, but of course I had to add it, and it worked beautifully. We also shaved the mango with a vegetable peeler go get the strips to make the "roses." If you don't have a round glass dish like this or a bowl for trifle, simply make it in any ceramic mold. I love the look of the mango roses atop the dish, but cubes ore plain slivers would work if you don't feel "fiddly."</div>

The Spanish term <i>chile relleno</i> often conjures up an image of a fat, battered-fried pre-roasted green poblano chile stuffed (mainly) with cheese and bathed in a tomato broth called <i>caldillo de jitomate,</i> or light tomato sauce<i>. </i>Rightly so, as this is a popular and well-known dish beloved throughout Mexico. But of course, <i>chile relleno</i> simply means "stuffed chile," no matter the type of chile itself (poblano, jalapeño, pasilla, ancho--fresh or dried, battered or not) stuffed with something (often cheese, but also chicken, meat, and seafood). Obviously, given the number of varieties of chiles in Mexico, the options of combinations seem endless.<br />
<br />
This version that I taught in a cooking class for Mexican cooks last week, is a lovely, modern twist on a classic recipe which I found in a favorite blog: <a href="https://www.halfbakedharvest.com/grilled-chiles-rellenos-chipotle-peach-mojo-shrimp/">Half Baked Harvest</a>. You begin by fire-roasting fresh poblano chiles over an open flame. The chiles are sweated, peeled, and deseeded. These are then stuffed with a good Mexican melting cheese and served with mojo-marinated shrimp over a lovely salad of grilled corn, tomatoes, mango, peach, cilantro, and more.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #38761d; font-size: large;"><b>What is a <i>Mojo, </i>you ask?</b></span><br />
Throughout the Caribbean and South American various marinades or salsas, called <i>mojos </i>are used to flavor chicken, meat, and seafood. Often these are made with some sort of citrus and are redolent with fresh herbs and garlic. These can also be used to flavor vegetables, such as the starchy cassava tuber. Glorious with seafood, these <i>mojos </i>also shine with meat, such as the bitter orange-garlic-olive oil <i>mojo </i>used to marinate the famous Cuban pork--a dish I grew up enjoying and loving in the South Florida of my youth. These marinades, or salsas, give a tropical pop to anything they touch, so don't be afraid to separate this sauce from the recipe and try it in other dishes!<br />

<br />
The Mexican cooks were surprised and delighted with this version of a <i>chile relleno. </i>And why not? It had a fresh tropical tang to it, like a sprightly dance of fruit, rum, and sun on the tongue. And the bit of left-over salad was perhaps even better the next day!<br />

<i>Cook's Notes: </i>Because I live in Mexico where so many chiles are available, I used the poblano chile called for in the recipe. However, if you don't have fresh poblano chiles, you could easily substitute anaheim chiles, any large dried chile such as <i>ancho, </i>which is actually a dried poblano. Other fresh or dried chiles could be used, even the zero-heat bell pepper would work fine. The sprightly <i>mojo </i>could be used on tofu, chicken or pork, or any seafood, including scallops, squid, octopus, and fish. As for cheeses, you simply need a not overly-strong melting cheese (cheddar or Monterey Jack) mixed with a bit of feta, if you don't have good Mexican cheeses available to you. No peaches? No problem.<br />
Nectarines, plums, and even pears would mix in well here. Use your imagination. I can't imagine how you could go wrong--this is a wonderful recipe with lots of possibilities.<br />

<span style="color: black; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 11.0pt;">To make the shrimp, combine in a blender 1 cup cilantro, 1/4
cup lime juice, 1/4 cup mango juice, 1/4 cup coconut rum, chipotle chiles, 1
teaspoon fish sauce, 1/3 cup olive oil, 2 cloves garlic, pinch of salt and a
pinch of pepper. Add the shrimp to a gallon size ziplock bag and pour the
marinade over the shrimp. Seal the bag and place it in the fridge for 30
minutes.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 11.0pt;">Meanwhile start the peppers and salad. Preheat the grill to
medium high heat. Rub the poblano peppers and corn with a little olive oil.
Place them on the grill. Grill the peppers and corn, covered, over medium heat
about 10 minutes or until peppers are charred all over and the corn is lightly
browned, turning the corn and peppers once or twice during cooking. Remove the
peppers and corn from the grill and allow to cool.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 11.0pt;">Once the corn is cool, cut the kernels away from the cob and
add to a large bowl. To the bowl add the tomatoes, 3 tablespoons olive oil, 3
tablespoons cilantro, 2 tablespoons lime juice, 1 clove garlic, peach and
mango. Season with salt and pepper and toss well.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">If I do a bit of self examination, I would have to admit that when it comes to food, I am not often dazzled by "cuteness." With animals and children, yes. But "cute" food doesn't usually grab me. But when I saw these soup sippers on <a href="http://brit.co/">brit.co</a>, I thought, "How cute!" And I didn't even cringe. And when I read these were the stuff brunch dreams are made of...well, I was sold. I knew I would teach my Mexican cooking students how to prepare them. Alongside any one of dozens of fabulous Mexican breakfast offerings, these would shine. And advertising them as a drink, an appetizer, or even an entree just sealed the deal.</span></div>

These were seriously good and yes, the skewers elicited remarks like, "How cute!" And they were. The only thing I would change is that I would use real bacon and not turkey bacon. What was I thinking? I don't even like turkey bacon (see my note below for other suggestions).<br />

Note: I love everything about these except that I used turkey bacon as the recipe suggested. There really is no excuse for turkey bacon. If you are going to eat bacon, just do it. The real thing. Though a bit of folded prosciutto or jamon serrano wouldn't go amiss.</div>

My apologies to all my readers who have emailed me after a long absence from my blog to ask if all is well. All is well and I appreciate your concern. I have simply been on a break from basically all but the basics on the internet. Now I have returned! But I do thank you. It is always nice to know you are missed!</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Thanksgiving, my favorite holiday, was simple this year. Traditional, yet simple. When I searched for something different to prepare as an appetizer for pre-dinner drinks for a mainly Mexican and a Swedish group of friends and family, I found a couple of recipes for a baked brie that particularly appealed. I read several of them and then combined them into something that worked for me (see <a href="http://www.lacrema.com/baked-brie-with-figs-walnuts-and-ancho-chili-honey/">here</a> for the original recipe of the main recipe I used). The results? A fantastic appetizer that my son said he could just eat with a spoon and forget the rest of the meal.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I served this at a traditional American Thanksgiving dinner, but it would work beautifully at Christmas--or any time of year when fresh figs can be found! Simple, fast, delicious--what more do we busy cooks need?</div>

For those of you who don't know dried chile ancho, you are in for a treat. Ancho chiles are simply <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poblano">poblano chiles</a> that have ripened and then dried. They are a mild chile with a deep, rich flavor, which has hints of date and dried-tomato sweetness. Personally, I consider this chile, in both its fresh and dried forms, to be a national treasure of Mexico! Ground chile ancho powder is available in Mexican groceries, but failing that, simply toast a dried ancho chile and then grind it in a spice grinder. Look for unbroken, pliable chiles of a deep red mahogany color.</div>

<span style="color: #274e13; font-size: x-large;"><b>Recipe: <span style="text-align: left;">Chile Ancho and Honey-Baked Brie with Fresh Figs and Pumpkin Seeds</span></b></span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: left;">(Recipe by Victoria Challancin, inspired by <a href="http://chile%20ancho%20and%20honey-baked%20brie%20with%20fresh%20figs%20and%20pumpkin%20seeds/">this</a>)</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: left;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="text-align: left;">1 wheel of Brie (I used a 12-oz piece)</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="text-align: left;">1/2 cup honey</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="text-align: left;">1 tablespoons of ground chile ancho</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="text-align: left;">6 to 8 fresh figs, cut in half</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="text-align: left;">Several sprigs of thyme, leaves only</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="text-align: left;">1/2 cup hulled pumpkin seeds</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="text-align: left;">1 tablespoon butter</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="text-align: left;">Salt and pepper to taste</span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Slightly score the brie in a crosshatch patter, without cutting too deeply (1/2 inch is sufficient--or less). Place in a baking dish and set aside.</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Heat the honey in a small saucepan. Add the ground chile ancho, stirring to combine.</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Pour the honey over the cheese, separating the scored areas with the tip of a blunt knife so that the honey can penetrate.</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Scatter the fig halves over the cheese. Sprinkle with thyme leaves and a few grinds of black pepper.</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Top with aluminum foil, sealing the edges. Bake for 10 minutes. Remove foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes.</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Meanwhile, melt butter in a small skillet. Add pumpkin seeds and cook until seeds begin to pop, about 2 to 3 minutes.</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
To serve, scatter the pumpkin seeds on top of the hot brie. Serve with crostini or crackers of choice.</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: left;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="text-align: left;">Note: I had intended to take this out of the oven while the cheese still held its round shape. Other parts of the dinner got in my way and I accidentally allowed it to completely melt. I don't think anyone noticed!</span><br />

<br />
<br />
In my desire to post something before leaving for a month in Morocco, I found myself tossing around two ideas: poetry and hyperbole. The poetry aspect stems from my earlier academic days spent in the study of literature. My life has changed over time, of course, but those leanings are still with me, if now translated into my love of food. So forgive me if I now write about food as if it were some piece of artistic, creative, and possibly verbal tribute and proof as to the wonder of our world.<br />
<br />
Where does hyperbole enter the picture? Why, from the internet, of course. The internet, which is practically synonymous with hyperbole. Take, for instance, the exaggerated claims of so many recipes presented to us daily online: "the best and only recipe for chocolate cake," "the only recipe you will ever need for crab cakes," "a life-changing recipe for applesauce?" Who can resist a mere click to see what is on offer?<br />
<br />
So now I give you a double dose of poetry, in the form of my final culinary ode to the last days of summer produce, and hyperbole by offering you a recipe for what is simply one of the best dishes I have tasted and made in years. It truly is that good. No exaggeration needed.<br />
<br />
One friend, who particularly loves this recipe for a roasted yellow bell pepper and corn salad tells me she eats it alone, on sandwiches, on pasta...with just about everything she can find in her kitchen. Although I used powdered turmeric for this recipe, another friend who equally appreciates this dish, tells me it is even better when fresh turmeric is used. Either way, I think you will love this.<br />
<br />

But as the original recipe stipulates, endive, frisée, or, I would think, any green of choice would be a lovely addition. Also, if you have fresh turmeric, by all means, use it! Just think of the health benefits!</span></div>

<span class="etylcleanup" style="background-color: white; color: #252525; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22.4px;"><span class="etyl">I thought I had rendered every possible vegetable into some sort of French Fry or Chip Wannabe. Sweet potatoes, eggplant, carrot, yucca, and yes, even cactus (if you haven't made these yet, check out my recipe <a href="http://flavorsofthesun.blogspot.mx/2016/04/baked-nopal-cactus-fries-with-avocado.html">here</a> for Baked Nopal Cactus Fries). And now, I proudly offer you a new one that you may not have thought of yet: Jícama Fries! <i>Nihil sub sole novum, </i>indeed!<i> </i></span></span></div>

<span class="etylcleanup" style="background-color: white; color: #252525; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 22.4px;"><span class="etyl">When you think about it, of course jícama should make a great "fry." Vaguely sweet and very starchy, Mexico's favorite edible tuberous root, the jícama (often called Mexican yam bean or Mexican turnip), is a likely candidate for a faux fry. The <i>Pachyrhizus erosus, </i>whose cultivation was spread by the Spaniards via the Philippines, and from there to China and other parts of Southeast Asia, is usually eaten raw. In Mexico it is a favorite snack when sprinkled with lime juice and powdered chile and in Asia with rice vinegar and salt. Of course, it can also be cooked. It pairs well with both fruit and vegetables, and often appears in soups and stir fries (it is a terrific substitute for water chestnut, which I can't find here in Mexico where I live). </span></span></div>

You bet. Par-boiling it a bit before tossing it with oil and herbs and spices takes away just enough of its natural crunchiness to make it an almost perfect choice. Below is the recipe I came up with after reading several online. I found I didn't like the idea of powdered garlic, which most recipes called for, so I grated a little fresh instead. Ditto for powdered onion. And since I was serving these with two different dipping sauces, I skipped sprinkling them with parsley for fear of gilding the lily a bit unnecessarily.</span></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; text-align: center;">When life gives you unusually warm weather, your kitchen should surely reciprocate by offering up some chilled soups. Or that is what I thought when I prepared the recipes for my cooking classes for Mexican cooks last week. In fact, I got so carried away that I chose THREE! </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The first one, which turned out to be my favorite, is a Chilled Curried Zucchini Soup with Coconut Milk. Wow! Of course, the success of this soup depends on the quality of the curry powder, which in a perfect world is made by your own hands, after considerable time spent toasting and grinding spices. Alternatively, just buy some really a good prepared spice blend that suits your tastes, mine being Muchi Curry by Frontier Natural Products, which is sold by Whole Foods or found online.

Thick, creamy, spicy and sooooo good. The bite of the fresh ginger offsets the slightly unctious texture of the creamy avocado. When I use any citrus in a dish, I often add a bit of grated zest for an additional touch of citrus joy.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">For the third I chose a classic Andalusian Tomato Gazpacho, creamy, but creamless, served with an interesting twist. In addition to the usual chopped vegetable garnish, I also served it with a hard-cooked egg in vinaigrette. Not particularly pretty, this condiment, but what a lovely kick it gave to an already flavor-rich base. I would use it again--perhaps with another cold soup, on bread, on cucumber slices, smeared on a sandwich, drizzled over asparagus or green beans...lots of possibilities for this.</span><br />

in the refrigerator overnight before serving. Red wine vinegar can be
substituted for the sherry vinegar. Serve the soup with additional extra-virgin
olive oil, sherry vinegar, ground black pepper, and diced vegetables for diners
to season and garnish their own bowls as desired.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Can you imagine that someone left this precious puppy outside our door on the street???? I can't. But I am thrilled that they did as he is the loveliest of animals. Of course, he couldn't be still long enough to pose for a photo. Roscoe and Molly seem to accept him with grace as well, even when he bites them in the face. Maybe six weeks old? Covered with fleas and wielding a slightly damaged back leg, probably an injury, but it doesn't keep him from racing around the yard trying to join Roscoe playing ball. Lovely personality and nature. Very cute.<br />

<b><span style="border: 1pt none; font-family: "arial"; padding: 0in;"><span style="color: #cc0000;"><br /></span></span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.25in; text-align: left;">
<span style="border-image-outset: initial; border-image-repeat: initial; border-image-slice: initial; border-image-source: initial; border-image-width: initial; border: 1pt none windowtext; padding: 0in;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Words have meaning, of course they do, but they also sometimes have a special connotation, that subtle meaning that goes beyond the literal, that meaning that evokes something far beyond the actual word. <i>Salsa </i>is just such a word. Setting any thought of Latin music aside, the word <i>salsa</i> simply means "sauce;" however, the connotation of the word is much more. Say it to almost any Mexican, and he or she will probably automatically think of a spicy sauce condiment that contains chiles--some version of which is found on literally every table in the country. Red. Green. Or nowadays, maybe some fresh fruit. Cooked. Raw. All of these are salsas, but it is the connotation that is so much more. It is surely a cultural thing...salsa as home, salsa as culture, salsa as a personal preference, salsa as what mother made. </span></span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Everyone has a favorite. And everyone has at least one <i>salsa </i>that represents home.</span></div>

Literally, it simply means "rooster's beak," but in culinary terms it is a fresh, uncooked sauce (often just called <i>salsa fresca</i> here in San Miguel) which is made from chopped plum tomatoes, white onion (use only white onions in Mexican cooking!), cilantro, fresh serrano chiles (or other fresh chile of choice, such as jalapeños or habaneros), sharp lime juice, and a sprinkle of salt.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.25in; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.25in; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Modern fruit versions of <i>pico de gallo </i>are now popping up everywhere, with a basic formula of fresh fruit, some sort of onion (white, spring, or red), raw chile, cilantro or mint, lime juice or a touch of sugar, if needed, and salt. There. How easy is that?</span></div>

<span style="color: #1c1c1c; font-family: "lucida grande"; font-size: 10.0pt;"><span style="color: #cc0000; font-size: medium;">Keep in mind the "formula" for a basic recipe I gave of using fruit, an herb (cilantro, mint, or basil--even dill, possibly), some onion, chile (I like to use serranos, but there are many chiles that work here--or use bell peppers if you don't want the heat), lime juice and/or a sweetener sugar, honey, agave nectar) depending on the fruit used, and salt. Black pepper, if you like. Cucumber, jícama, and avocado could easly be added as well. Serve them with corn chips or make cinnamon chips by brushing a flour tortilla with a bit of melted butter, sprinkle with cinnamon sugar, cut into triangles, and bake until golden. Other additions that can perk up a fruit salsa: citrus zest, canned chipotle chiles in adobo sauce, pine nuts, pumpkin seeds.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">For those of you who don't know <i>queso cotija, </i>it might come as a surprise, Mexico's answer to feta, it is sharp, strong, and crumbly. And I love it. And for those of you wanting to know a bit more about the rather amazing world of Mexican cheeses, see my post <a href="http://flavorsofthesun.blogspot.mx/2008/06/mexican-cheeses.html">here.</a> When I found the following recipe on blog friend Nancy Lopez-McHugh's inspiring and beautiful <a href="http://www.spiciefoodie.com/2015/06/21/corn-pasta-with-cilantro-and-cotija-cheese-pesto-for-meatlessmonday/">site</a> where she served it over a corn pasta, I knew immediately that I would love it. While Nancy rightly calls it a "pesto," for me it works beautifully on its own as a dipping salsa for <i>totopos, </i>or corn tortilla chips.</span><br />

<span style="color: black; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 11.0pt;">Place the whole almonds in the food
processor and process just until they have broken down to a coarse grain -- do
not over process and turn into almond butter. Next break the cheese up into
several pieces and add it to the food processor, pulse until it breaks down --
about three pulses. Now add the garlic and chile and pulse a couple of times so
it blends into the cheese and almonds.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-family: "arial"; font-size: 11.0pt;">Now turn the processor to the lowest setting and
as it is swirling pour in the olive oil. Slowly add more oil until you achieve
the texture you would like for your pesto sauce. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

the finished pesto into a large bowl. Taste and if needed sprinkle in a little

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">This last salsa is a marvel. And although I adore fresh <i>huitlacoche </i>(sometimes spelled <i>cuitlacoche</i>), I wasn't sure I would like this recipe or not. Once made though, to say it was a hit is an understatement. As I said...this salsa is a marvel.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">What is <i>Huitlacoche</i>? In simple terms, it is corn smut, a fungus that often infects ears of corn during the rainy season. In the United States, it is considered a pest, a plague. Here in Mexico we know better and often refer to it simply as the Mexican truffle. It is just that exotic and magical. One of these days, perhaps during the upcoming rainy season, I promise to write more on this incredible ingredient.</span><br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
Perhaps the most misunderstood dish in Mexican cuisine, is mole (pronounced <i>mo-</i>lay). Complex. Rich. Refined. Labor-intensive. Elaborate. Pre-Hispanic. Ubiquitous. In Mexico no true fiesta would be complete without it, but what, really, is it? A chocolate sauce? A seed sauce? A spicy concoction? A nut sauce? Red? Yellow? Green? Black? Thick? Thin? Yes. No. All of these things or none? Let's see if I can illuminate some of the basics for you of this group of incredible dishes so misunderstood outside of Mexico.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
To really understand this culinary marvel, let's go back in time. The word <i>mole </i>comes from Nahuatl (the language spoken by the Aztecs) word <i>mulli </i>or <i>molli</i>, which means a sauce, concoction, mixture, or stew. When the Spanish first came to what is now Mexico, they documented well the foods they found, including the many moles. The complex sauces, called <i>mulli, </i>were widely popular. Sometimes these mixtures were simple, consisting of roasted chiles, tomatoes or tomatillos, and a bit of tortilla as a thickening agent. Of course, more complicated versions existed, which included seeds, nuts, chocolate, spices, and more. These sauces were eaten on simple tortillas or with turkey or other game (remember that Mexico had no chickens, pork, or beef prior to the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Columbian_Exchange">Columbian Exchange</a>). </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
And while mole differs from region to region, incorporating local ingredients in its varied interpretations, two modern states can make particular claim in the area of mole-- but, of course, this statement could get me in trouble as other locations can also make their own claims to mole fame. Puebla, or more specifically the nuns of the Santa Rosa convent who supposedly concocted/invented Mole Poblano for a visiting Bishop, and Oaxaca, which is known as the Land of Seven Moles (or seven hundred, as the people there like to tell you). But truly, there is no definitive mole, just countless versions that have evolved over time, varying from family to family, cook to cook, town to town, and region to region.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #990000; font-size: large;"><b>Here are a few examples of well-known versions of moles:</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<i>Mole Poblano --</i>a rich, dark, complex mole from Puebla which includes chocolate and up to 35 or so other ingredients--perhaps the best known mole outside of Mexico</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<i>Pipian -- </i>A red or green sauce made with toasted squash and sesame seeds</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<i>Huatzmole -- </i>a soupy mole often served over goat, or <i>cabrito</i></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<i>Mole de Olla -- </i>not really a mole, but rather a soup made with beef or chicken and lots of vegetables that often gets lumped in the category of moles because of its name, but it is not a true mole</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<i>Tlilmole </i>or <i>Mole Prieto -- </i>a rich mole from Tlaxcala often served with pork and anise tamales</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<i>Mole Ranchero -- </i>a very simple to prepare mole from Morelos</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<i>Mole Rosa -- </i>lovely mild, light pink mole from Taxco, Guerrero, which includes white chocolate, pulque, anis and hoja santa (the rootbeer plant so popular in southern Mexico)</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<i>Mole Castillo -- </i>typically thickened with bread, this sauce is rich with oregano, black pepper, and spicy chile guajillo</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>

<i>Mole Colorado -- </i>Red mole</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<i>Mole Coloradito - </i>A little red mole</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<i>Mole Verde -- </i>Green mole (the color comes from tomatillos, herbs, poblano chiles, or even lettuce/radish leaves/spinach in some places)</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<i>Mole Amarillo -- </i>Yellow mole (difficult to make outside of Oaxaca because the yellow <i>chilhuacle</i> chiles used in it)</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<i>Chichilo Negro -- </i>A rich, dark mole characterized by the anise flavor imparted by avocado leaves and charred tortilla and various chile seeds</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<i>Manchamantel -- "</i>Tablecloth stainer," which usually contains fruit</div>

<span style="color: #990000; font-size: large;"><b>Mole--Deconstructed into a Simplified Formula</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #990000; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
While this is greatly simplified, many moles can be broken down into the following parts:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
</div>
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li>The necessary<b> chiles,</b> which vary from region to region, must be toasted and/or fried and then reconstituted in hot water and made into a paste (often any chocolate used would be added here)</li>
<li>The <b>"wet" part </b> -- tomatoes, nuts or seeds, onions, garlic, raisins, plantains, bread or corn tortilla, chocolate (if used, sometimes it is added here instead), etc, often roasted before being ground together into a wet paste. Note that the nuts and seeds vary and include almonds, peanuts, hazelnuts, pine nuts, sesame seeds, squash or pumpkin seeds and more)</li>
<li>The <b>herbs and spices, </b>which include cloves, allspice berries, cinnamon, aniseed, peppercorns, oregano, thyme, and of course...more</li>
<li>The rich <b>broth, </b>which is usually made from the main protein on which the mole will be served (chicken, pork, etc). Note that the broth is added over and over to thin moles as many of the ingredients, such as tortillas, nuts, seeds, and chiles, are all natural thickeners.</li>
</ul>
<div>
To see how a typical mole might come together see my personal recipe below, developed after much trial and error, for an <i>almendrado </i>(or almond-based mole) or as some would call it, <i>mole coloradito.</i></div>

<span style="font-size: large; font-weight: bold;"><span style="color: #990000;">Mole and the Curry Connection</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Mole and Indian Curry connected, you ask? In theory, yes. The incomparable Rachel Laudan, a food historian (and more) whom I greatly admire, wrote a lovely, scholarly paper called "The Techical Bases of Mole and Curry," which if you can find, is simply a wonderful eye-opener. In it she traces the history of mole, saying that its origins are pre-Arabic Indo-Iranian in that it has an onion/nut paste thickener plus sweet spices, typical of many of the dishes brought by Arabs to the Mediterranean, but with the addition of chile and chile seeds, indigenous to Mexico. Of course, I am not doing her thesis justice, as the article is complex and richly researched. But simply said [forgive me, Rachel, for putting my own spin here] from whatever or wherever the source from whence we get this blending of various pastes and parts, most moles are very like curries in the techniques used, and the end result is similar in that a complex mixture of flavors and textures comes together so that no one ingredient really dominates, but rather the whole is blended into a beautiful symphony of flavors that are married and harmonious.</div>

<span style="color: #990000; font-size: x-large;"><b>Common Questions about Mole</b></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b><i>Does mole always contain chocolate?</i></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Certainly not. Though chocolate, that ancient ingredient so loved in Pre-Hispanic Mesoamerica, is integral to some moles, it is not used at all in others. But if it is used, its taste should meld with the other ingredients and not stand out.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b><i>Does mole always contain chiles?</i></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Well, let me put myself out on a limb and say that I can't imagine any mole that doesn't contain chiles, though many moles aren't really spicy-hot, just rich with a mixture of varied chiles, which depend on where it originates.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b><i>Is mole always labor-intensive to prepare?</i></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Yes and no. Yes, because many moles contain a long list of ingredients and several techniques (toasting, roasting, stewing, and frying). No, because some types of mole have fewer ingredients and because homemade or commercial mole pastes can be purchased in almost all Mexican markets and grocery stores. These can be used as a base, ready to go once reconstituted with broth, or be added to according to the cook's wishes.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b><i>Is mole only served at fiestas?</i></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Not at all. Though major fiestas for <i>quinceañeras </i>(a "coming of age" party of sorts when a young girl turns 15), weddings, baptisms, confirmations, Christmas, and more, moles can also appear at the breakfast table in the form of <i>enmoladas </i>(tortillas dipped in a mole sauce and rolled--stuffed or not with eggs, cheese, and more), baked eggs in mole sauce, and other dishes to countless to name.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b><i>Are there other ways to serve mole other than over chicken, pork, or goat?</i></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Of course. Think of mole as a rich sauce that lends itself to many interpretations and many dishes. Because a pot of mole serves many, there is often some left over. This can be used in countless ways: in enchiladas (<i>enmoladas), </i>with eggs of all sorts, in tacos, tamales, in rice, in casseroles, roasted vegetables, with shrimp or fish, or even just as a condiment (on beans...or <i>chiles rellenos</i>...two of my favorite uses for leftover mole sauce). And don't overlook serving a dab of mole on a simple toasted corn tortilla...heaven!During Lent and Christmas as well, cakes made from dried shrimp and <i>romeritos (</i>a vegetable that actually looks like rosemary, hence the name) are served with mole.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b><i>Can mole be made vegetarian?</i></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Of course, again. Just make the usual adjustments. </div>

<b><i>Is mole gluten-free?</i></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Well, careful here...not always. While corn tortillas are often added as a thickener, bread or breadcrumbs made from wheat is also common, especially <i>mole negro, coloradito, rojo, manchamantel, chichilo </i>often contain bread, while <i>mole amarillo</i> and <i>mole verde</i> don't. Usually. If you have celiac's disease, it is always better to ask!</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b><i>Is the meat/chicken always cooked separately when preparing moles?</i></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Usually, yes. Because moles require a lot of stirring, the meat/chicken would just get in the way. Also, cooking times are quite different for the two: the meat or chicken don't require as much time as do moles, which, like with a good Indian curry, just get better as they simmer--and are always better the next day once the complex flavors get a chance to marry.</div>

<b><i>Do Mexican cooks still use </i>metates <i>and </i>molcajetes<i>, the traditional grinding implements, to prepare their moles?</i></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Purists do, of course, saying it is the <i>only </i>way to coax out the best flavors and textures. But modern tools, such as spice grinders, food processors, and blenders, are obviously commonly used. When preparing really big batches for fiestas, the mole ingredients will often be taken to a <i>molino, </i>or mill, to save the cook time, while leaving his or her own specific ingredients pre-measured to personal specifications.</div>

Ok. I gave in. I caved. I capitulated. My heart, which knows better than my head, thought these would be better fried than baked, but in the end, I opted for the healthy version. Yep, I baked them. And were they ever good! Good, of course, if you like the taste of nopal cactus, and I certainly do.</div>

I realize that many of my readers will neither have access to cactus paddles, called <i>pencas, </i>in Spanish. Others won't have the interest because they perhaps sound a bit strange. But trust me on this one...these baked beauties just shine. The taste, tart and clean, comes through just fine in the baked version as well.</div>

It seems that Mexico has always appreciated the <i>nopal </i>cactus (one of many in the Opuntia ficusindinca species of Cactus family). It has figured into its cuisine since recorded history and, of course, before that. You might know it as the main component of <i>nopalitos, </i>a common Mexican salad. It even appears on the Mexican flag, so great is its importance. Why, you ask? One obvious reason is that it grows wild over much of the republic and it is easy to cultivate as well. A popular food source, cooked or raw, nopal has gotten a great deal of attention in recent years due to its health benefits and nutritional value. Both the green pads, which I used here, and the cactus fruit are popular throughout all of Mexico--and were, even before people understood their nutritive value.<br />

One of my good friends owns a very classy boutique hotel here in San Miguel that serves the most delicious tomatillo jam. Because I know it to be her late mother's recipe and a personal treasure, I would never ask for the recipe. Of course, that doesn't stop me from swooning over it and dreaming. In a recent class I decided to try make some version of this delicious treat, secretly knowing it would enhance my PBJ indulgences--and that my Mexican cooks would be dazzled. I looked about and came up with a lovely version by Karen Hursh Graber of Mexico Connect. I paired it with a family favorite from the King Arthur Flour Company, Morning Glory Muffins, which are so brimming with all things healthy that even my husband eats them.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
But before I give you the recipes, let me repost a few notes on tomatillos from an earlier post of mine. For ideas on how to use them, see the original post <a href="http://flavorsofthesun.blogspot.mx/search?q=tomatillo">here</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #38761d; font-size: x-large;"><b>A Few Notes on Tomatillos</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Let's blame it on the Spanish Conquistadors, shall we? Blame them for exactly what this time, you ask? That misnaming a variety of Aztec-based words that they just might not have understood at the time. In Nahuatl, that wonderful agglutinated language of the ancient Aztecs, the word <i>tomatl </i>simply referred to any plum fruit with <i>xitomatl </i>referring to regular red tomatoes and <i>miltomatl </i>referring to tomatillos. The Spanish, delighted with their new gastronomic finds, simply returned home with the term <i>tomates, </i>which is what they cal red tomatoes in Spain today and with <i>tomatillo, </i>or "little Tomato" to refer to tomatillos, the red tomato's little green cousins, or kissing cousins, as we like to say in the South, as they are only very distant relatives.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
What exactly are tomatillos? Like tomatoes themselves, they belong to the larger family of Solanaceae, or Nightshades, along with potatoes, eggplants, tobacco, mandrake, belladonna (are you seeing a connection with the "Deadly Nightshade" moniker yet?), chiles, and petunias, to name a few. Breaking the family down a bit more, you find the genus "physalis" which includes gooseberries, ground cherries and tomatillos, all part of the kissing cousins of the Paper Lantern group, called this because some of them have papery cellulose husks which must be removed before eating.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Here in Mexico the names become even more confused. Unlike the Spanish, Mexicans refer to their own red tomatoes as <i>jitomates </i>and tomatillos as <i>tomates verdes </i>(i.e. green tomatoes), or more commonly just <i>tomates. </i>In all my years of teaching Mexican cooks, well over a thousand of them, I have never heard them call this fruit "tomatillos," though they certainly know the word; they always just say "tomates."</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
While typically found green in the markets, still nestled in their paper husks, other varieties also exist. My favorite are the walnut-sized purple ones, which are slightly sweeter, and the very tiny green <i>tomates de la milpa, </i>or "tomatillos of the corn field," which are about the size of a blueberry. When shopping for them, choose firm tomatillos that fill out the husk. Remove the paper husk and scrub to remove the natural sticky substance on the surface of the fruit before using.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #38761d;"><b><br /></b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Nutritionally speaking, the tomatillo is a good source of iron, magnesium, phosphorus, and copper, as well as being rich in vitamin C and dietary fiber as well.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Tangy, bright, tart, the tomatillo is a perfect fruit to add a bit of zing to any number of dishes. The interior of the tomatillo is highly seeded, yet the seeds are not removed as they often are with tomatoes; in fact, you probably can't remove them due to the way they are structured. Their tart lemony flavors lends itself beautiful to other Mexican ingredients such as avocado, and they are a perfect addition to a salad in their raw form. And of course, let us not forget this heavenly tomatillo jam!</div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<i>Cook's Notes: </i>These easy-to-make muffins (the grating of the apple and carrot are the most difficult part--hardly difficult at all!) are absolutely delicious. I am always pleased that recipe makes so many, then surprised when they don't last a nanosecond in our house! These muffins hardly need either butter or jam (I use both), but a smear of cream cheese is just wonderful.</div>

<span style="color: #38761d; font-size: x-large;"><b>Recipe: Morning Glory Muffins</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #38761d;">(Recipe from <a href="http://www.kingarthurflour.com/recipes/morning-glory-muffins-recipe">The King Arthur Flour Company</a>)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #38761d;">Makes 12 muffins (I always get more than this)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #38761d;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
1/2 cup (2 1/2 ounces) raisins</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
2 cups (8 1/2 ounces) whole wheat flour, traditional or white whole wheat</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
1 cup (7 1/2 ounces brown sugar</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
2 teaspoons baking soda</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
2 teaspoons cinnamon</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
1/2 teaspoon salt</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
2 cups (7 ounces) carrots, peeled and grated (I don't bother to peel them)</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
1 large tart apple, peeled, cored, and grated</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
1/2 cup (2 ounces) sweetened shredded coconut</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
1/2 cup (2 ounces) chopped walnuts (or other nut of choice)</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
1/3 cup (1 1/2 ounces) sunflower seeds or wheat germ, optional (don't leave out the seeds!)</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
3 large eggs</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
2/3 cup (4 5/8 ounces) vegetable oil</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
2 teaspoons vanilla extract</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
1/4 cup (2 ounces) orange juice</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin, or line it with papers and spray the insides of the papers.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>To make the muffins: </b>In a small bowl, cover the raisins with hot water, and set them aside to soak and plump while you assemble the rest of the recipe. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking soda, spices, and salt. Stir in the carrots, apple, coconut, nuts, and sunflower seeds or wheat germ, if using. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
In a separate bowl, beat together the eggs, oil, vanilla, and orange juice. Add to the flour mixture, and stir until evenly moistened. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Drain the raisins and stir them in. Dived the batter among the wells of the prepared pan (they will be full almost to the top)</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Bake for 25 to 28 minutes, until nicely domed and a cake tester inserted in the center comes out clean. Remove from oven, let cool for 5 minutes in the pan on a rack, then turn out of pan to finish cooling.</div>

I wanted to offer a new flavor palate to my Mexican cooks in my class this week, so I chose what I hoped would be an interesting blend of fairly strong flavors, most new to the cooks. This easy recipe is so simple to make and the flavor yield is tremendous. Broccoli (or green beans), onion, green olives and orange slices are tossed with a bit of olive oil and white wine, spread on a cooking sheet and topped with za'atar-dusted chicken strips before roasting. It couldn't be easier, or more delicious. The orange theme continues by using zest and juice, coupled with chicken broth, to prepare whole wheat couscous on which to serve the dish. I love not only the ease of preparation, but the flavor punch as well.</div>

<i>Cook's Notes: </i>The original recipe called for green beans, which I change for broccoli. It also called for one orange and I used two, which gave the couscous a fantastic flavor. I was thrilled to find whole wheat couscous for the first time here in San Miguel as well. A treat. As for the chicken tenders, I simply cut two boneless breasts into strips and cooked the entire tray an extra few minutes.</div>

You don't always see such huge pieces of <i>chicharron, </i>or fried pork skins on offer. Of course I asked this lovely young man if I could snap a photos. He not only agreed to it, he insisted I try a bite. What can I say? You might imagine that you wouldn't like this, but oh my...perfection. Not a drop of grease. Just concentrated flavor...Heaven.</div>

<b><span style="color: #cc0000; font-size: x-large;"><i>Una Pozoliza</i>--A Pozole Birthday Party!</span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #cc0000;">By Victoria Challancin</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
Whether spelled <i>pozole</i> or <i>posole, </i>the word refers to something utterly delicious. Just like the word <i>hummus </i>simply<i> </i>means "chickpea" in Arabic, but denotes so much more, the word <i>pozole </i>means "hominy" in Spanish, yet it conjures up far more to those who know and love it. Exactly what, you ask? Well, let me wax poetical on a dish that I adore. First of all, I need to start with the chemical process that renders dried field corn into a little piece of magic, as well as a more nutritional food item.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #cc0000; font-size: large;"><b><i>Nixtamalization--an Ancient Process</i></b></span></div>
<br />
The word <i>pozole </i>simply denotes hominy, or dried field corn which has been treated by soaking it in a solution of lye, slaked lime (calcium hydroxide) or wood ash and then cooked. Called "nixtamalization," this process of soaking hard field corn in an alkaline solution has multiple benefits: it makes the corn easier to grind and transport, increases the flavor and smell, reduces mycotoxins, and releases niacin which helps prevent the often fatal pellagra disease. And the ancient Mayans and Aztecs knew and utilized this important process thousands of years ago! When Europeans eventually integrated New World corn into their diets and introduced it into Africa, they failed to understand the importance of nixtamalizing the corn, resulting in serious niacin deficiency and death to many who came to depend on corn as a staple. Yet the ancients in the Americas fully understood its importance. Even my grandmother from Georgia slaked her corn in a large bucket with wood ash before making her hominy grits!<br />
<br />
Have you ever smelled a really fresh corn tortilla or a <i>tamal</i>? Well, it is the slaked corn that gives it its heady aroma. In fact, I smilingly recall a Mexican friend who was helping me cook for a fiesta sighing when I brought in a bucket of tortilla dough (<i>masa) </i>I had bought at a local <i>tortilleria </i> and saying, "Ahhhhhh.....nixtamal!" Indeed, it is a smell that warms the heart of all Mexicans and those who love its cuisine.<br />
<br />
The difference in the end product of nixtamalized corn is the difference between a corn tortilla and Southern cornbread made from untreated ground corn: both delicious, but one significantly more healthy than the other.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #cc0000; font-size: large;"><b><i>Pozole</i></b></span><br />
<span style="color: #cc0000; font-size: large;"><b><i><br /></i></b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
So if the word <i>pozole </i>simply means "hominy," why, you ask, am I so ecstatic about such a humble food? Because although simple hominy is delicious on its own--and don't get me started on my love of grits-- the <i>pozole </i>that I am referring to is that incomparable Mexican soup of the same name which makes me weak in the knees. So weak, in fact, that wherever I travel in Mexico, I seek out the <i>pozolerias </i>that serve it. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Served at <i>quinceañeras, </i>weddings, birthdays, and New Year celebrations, <i>pozole </i>is a soup typically made with rich pork broth and hominy, although countless regional variations exist (my good friend Alfredo Castrejón, who is from the state of Guerrero, tells me that sardines are popular in one local version). Traditionally, <i>pozole </i>comes in one of three colors: red, white, or green. And while red is the most typical type found here in the Bajio of Mexico, where I live, white (or green even) is my favorite.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Although the basic hominy/meat or chicken soup base is delicious on its own, it is the accompaniments that make the dish come to life. These, too, vary a bit from region to region, but the most common are shredded lettuce or cabbage, avocado, radishes, Mexican limes, and dried oregano (a must!). I have most commonly eaten (and made) it using <i>chicharron, </i>or fried pork skins, as one of the garnishes, but the version I will show you here was made by Alfredo, who serves his chicken version with corn tostadas, black beans, sour cream, and fresh farmer's cheese (<i>queso fresco </i>or <i>queso ranchero</i>)--delicious!</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
On my son's 26th birthday on January 19th, his girlfriend and her family hosted a <i>pozoliza, </i>or <i>posole </i>party for him--and my mouth is still watering. As far as I am concerned, this is a perfect party dish. Or maybe just a perfect dish in general!</div>

<br />
Because I've been storing up so many photos and ideas I want to write about now that the Holiday dust has started to settle, I didn't know where to begin. With nothing particular in mind, I strolled down my photo collection and this Italian dinner just jumped out at me. Italian on my table. Italian in my Heart. Italian in my blood.<br />
<br />
Now that I look over this menu, I am astounded at how unbalanced the flavors are. There are far too many tomato sauces to suit any northern Italian, which is where my family is from. Still...it was good.<br />

Mini Cannoli Bites (which I loved, loved, loved and wrote about<a href="http://flavorsofthesun.blogspot.mx/search?q=mini+cannoli+bites"> here)</a></div>
<br />
<b>An Overview</b><br />
<br />
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li><b>Pizza Bites </b> These were oddly retro, but fun. Full of flavor from the pepperoni and cheese, quick to make, and just the type of appetizer that is always welcome. A hit. (Recipe follows)</li>
<li><b>Rose-Shaped Eggplant Parm </b> With the internet so full of rose-shaped everything these days (I recently made in class the Rose-Shaped Apple Mini Pies and loved them), I thought this savory version of Eggplant Parm would be equally good. Alas, I was a bit disappointed in the flavors, which oddly seemed lacking, hence no recipe. </li>
<li><b>Pizza Quattro Stagioni </b> What's not to love about this pizza? A perennial favorite. The four segments of the pizza represent the four seasons of the year: mushrooms/fall, prosciutto/winter, artichokes/spring, and tomatoes and basil/summer. Because I had the ingredients and time, I also included a margherita pizza, with mushrooms.</li>
<li><b>Roman-Style Chicken </b> This tomato-braised chicken with prosciutto, bell peppers, white wine, chicken stock, capers, and lots of fresh herbs is apparently the number one most requested recipe of Food Network's chef/star Giada De Laurentiis, and with good reason: it is absolutely packed with rich flavors and is easy to prepare. Somehow I failed to snap a photo of it, but the recipe can be found <a href="http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/giada-de-laurentiis/roman-style-chicken-recipe.html">here</a>.</li>
<li><b>Antipasto Salad with Bocconcini and John Besh's Green Olive Tapenade</b> Another winner. My only complaint is that this salad is really like marinated vegetables as it is swimming, and I do mean "swimming" in dressing. Delicious dressing, but swimming nevertheless. Oh, one other minor complaint...in a rush I failed to stipulate the type of salami I wanted and simply told the clerk in the deli to give me her best salami. Silly me. The best turned out to be an icky pink meat reminiscent of bad bologna. I'll know next time. The tapenade, by Lousiana chef John Besh, is terrific, as is La Brea Bakery's Nancy Silverton's Antipasto Salad recipe. (Recipes follow)</li>
<li><b>Whole Roasted Cauliflower with Green Herb Sauce </b> Always a fan of herby sauces, I knew I would like this one, and I did. Intense flavors. Simple recipe. Yes. (Recipe follows)</li>
<li><b>Mini Cannoli Bites</b> As I said, I have already wept with joy over these (the recipe is <a href="http://flavorsofthesun.blogspot.mx/search?q=mini+cannoli+bites">here</a>).</li>
</ul>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #990000;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
3/4 cups flour</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
3/4 teaspoon baking powder</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
1 tablespoon Italian seasoning (mixed herbs)</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Pinch of salt</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Pinch of red pepper flakes</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
3/4 cup whole milk</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
1 egg, beaten</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
\1/4 cup Parmesan cheese, grated</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
1 cup pepperoni, finely chopped</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
1/2 cup jarred, all natural pizza sauce--or homemade</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Preheat oven to 375F. Grease a mini-muffin pan.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, Italian herbs, salt and red pepper flakes.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Whisk in milk and egg. Stir in mozzarella, Parmesan and pepperoni. Let stand for 10 minutes.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Stir the batter and divide among the muffin cups. Bake until puffed and golden, 20 to 25 minutes.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Meanwhile, heat pizza sauce until warmed through. Serve the puffs hot with the warm pizza sauce for dipping.</div>

<b><span style="color: #38761d; font-size: x-large;">Recipe: Whole Roasted Cauliflower with Green Herb Sauce</span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #38761d;">(Recipe from Martha Stewart, November 2015)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #38761d;">Prep: 15 minutes Total time: 1 hour 15 minutes</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #38761d;">Serves 10</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
1 large head cauliflower</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
3/4 cups extra-virgin olive oil</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Coarse salt and freshly ground black pepper</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
1/2 cup packed chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
1/2 cup packed chopped fresh cilantro leaves and stems</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
1/2 teaspoon minced garlic</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
1 1/2 teaspoons Dijon mustard</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
2 tablespoons sherry vinegar</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Preheat oven to 450F. Place cauliflower on a parchment-lined rimmed baking sheet. Brush with 1/4 cup oil; season with salt and pepper. Pull short sides of parchment over cauliflower and fold one end over the other a few times to seal. Fold long ends of parchment under cauliflower to create a packet. Roast until knife-tender, about 40 minutes. Tear open parchment at top; roast until golden brown, 15 or 20 minutes more.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Stir together parsley, cilantro, garlic, mustard, vinegar, and remaining 1/2 cup oil in a small bowl to combine. Season with salt and pepper. Serve cauliflower warm, with sauce alongside. (Or pour it over as I did).</div>

For a small dinner party for a group of girlfriends last week I was asked to bring an appetizer. I didn't want anything that had to be served (or carried hot), nor anything too fussy, yet I needed something festive and tasty...What could be easier than a cheese ball? A bit retro, of course, but always good. After searching the web for a slightly different take on the traditional cheese ball, I came up with <a href="http://www.thekitchn.com/recipe-blue-cheese-ball-with-dried-figs-and-honey-225905">this lovely version</a> from the always reliable The Kitchn. Of course I couldn't just leave it alone, so throwing it together in my own way, I came up with a slightly modified version. It couldn't have been easier. Delicious and easy--who doesn't need a recipe like this during the holidays</div>

Christmas Gorgonzola Cheese Ball with Dried Figs and Honey</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<i>Cook's Notes: </i>I used only 190g of cream cheese as that is how Philadelphia brand packages it for Mexico, instead of 227g or a cup. I also used a lovely hunk of Gorgonzola from Costco instead of a regular blue cheese. The food processor made this incredibly fast to prepare. The original recipe called for 1 cup cream cheese, 1 cup blue cheese, 1/3 cup dried figs, 2 tablespoons honey, and 1/4 cup toasted sliced almonds</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #cc0000;">(My version, based on one from <a href="http://www.thekitchn.com/recipe-blue-cheese-ball-with-dried-figs-and-honey-225905">The Kitchn</a>)</span></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
2/3 cup dried figs</div>
<div>
190g cream cheese (a 227g block would also work)</div>
<div>
1 1/2 cups gorgonzola cheese, in chunks</div>
<div>
2 to 3 tablespoons honey, depending on how sweet you want it</div>
<div>
1/2 cup toasted sliced almonds</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Lightly toast almond slices in a small dry skillet until golden. Set aside to cool.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Place dried figs in food processor and pulse to finely chop. <br />
Add cream cheese, gorgonzola and honey. Process until smooth, leaving it a bit chunky, if desired.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Spread almonds on a large plate. Form a ball with the cheese mixture. Roll the ball on the plate with the almonds, making sure it is completely covered with almonds. Wrap the cheese ball in plastic wrap and refrigerate until firm, at least 2 hours. Serve with baguette toasts or crackers.</div>

When writing about spices, sometimes I think letting the photos speak for themselves is enough. I only wish I could capture the smells...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Having said that, though, I read back over some old posts and thought I would repeat this little bit from a post I did a couple of years ago:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
In my very private musings, I secretly think of myself as The Spice Queen. I know, I know...it is a bit pretentious and over-blown, but truly I gravitate to cuisines that use ample amounts of spices and I, myself love to toast and grind all manner of blends, from <i><a href="http://flavorsofthesun.blogspot.mx/search?q=ras+el+hanout">Ras el Hanout</a>, </i>curry blends (see my Garam Masala here), Middle Eastern <i>baharat </i>(or <i><a href="http://flavorsofthesun.blogspot.mx/search?q=dukkah">Dukkah</a>, </i>or <i><a href="http://flavorsofthesun.blogspot.mx/search?q=za%27atar">Za'atar</a></i>), Cajun blends, <i>Quatre Epices, </i><a href="http://flavorsofthesun.blogspot.mx/search?q=jerk+seasoning">Jerk Seasoning</a><i>, </i>and so many more. Whether this love comes from deep in my DNA or simply is an offshoot from the countless spices markets I have loved all over the world, spices do permeate my kitchen and my life. I hunger for them; I seek them out; I read about them; I lecture on them; but most importantly, I use them...</div>

Once when my son was a teenager returning from a year of study in France, he commented off-handedly on the way our house smelled.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Aghast, I said, "Our house <i>smells?????"</i></div>

Sometimes you see some sadly motley spices that no one would possibly buy. These are mounded around an aluminum mold and are stale and unappealing, except for the presentation, which I find oddly fascinating.</div>

Dear Loyal Readers,<br />
I should start this post with an apology for neglecting you and my poor orphan blog for so long, but all I can say is that Life got in the way and I took a several-month-long hiatus from almost all things "internet." During that time, I did lead my 12th small group to Morocco, which was lovely beyond words--both my group and my beloved Morocco. I did manage to post photos on my private and public Facebook (Flavors of the Sun) pages and Instagram (vchallancin), but found it too daunting to post and type a proper post from my smaller devices while on the road. Happily, I am now staring at my desktop, which is smiling back at me, reflecting happy memories via photos of the trip and of the several cooking classes I have taught since my return.<br />
<br />
In one such class, we, my Mexican students and I, focused on Italian cuisine. What better dessert than cannoli, I thought. A bit fiddly to prepare, but so quintessentially Italian...or Sicilian...or even Italian-American. As I searched online for a good cannoli recipe, I found one that captivated me: <a href="http://lecremedelacrumb.com/2015/02/mini-cannoli-bites.html">Mini Cannoli Bites,</a> perfect for Holiday entertaining. Delightful and not too difficult to prepare.<br />

<br />
<i>Cook's Notes: </i>Instead of refrigerated pie crusts, I used a classic butter crust (1 1/4 cup flour, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2/ teaspoon sugar, 8 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, 2 to 3 tablespoons ice water--can be made in a food processor or by hand by mixing dry ingredients, adding cubed butter, and then ice water to achieve desired consistency). I reduced the oven temperature to about 360 degrees. There will be enough leftover filling to serve on its own, if desired, as a comforting pudding-like dessert.<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #cc0000;">Makes about 28 mini cannoli bites</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #cc0000;">Prep Time: 15 minutes</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #cc0000;">Cook Time: 10 minutes</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #cc0000;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
2 refrigerated pie crusts or homemade butter crust (see my version in the Cook's Notes above)</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
1 tablespoon sugar</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Toppings: mini chocolate chips, powdered sugar, chopped pistachios</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Filling:</b></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
1 15-ounce container of whole milk ricotta cheese</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
1/2 - 1 cup powdered sugar (depending on how sweet you want it--I used 3/4 cup)</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
1 teaspoon vanilla</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
2 tablespoons sugar</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
1 teaspoon orange zest</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
If using purchased pie crusts, allow to thaw if frozen. If making homemade, refrigerate for about 30 minutes before rolling.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Roll out pie crust dough on a floured flat surface. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Mix sugar and cinnamon together in a small bowl. Sprinkle over the pie crust. Use a 2-inch round cookie cutter to cut as many circles from the dough as possible.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Gently press each circle into greased mini muffin tins to form little "cups." Bake at 400 degrees for 8 to 10 minutes until golden. Allow to cool completely. Sprinkle with powdered sugar (or delay sprinkling until filled, as I did).</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Prepare the filling by mixing the ricotta cheese and powdered sugar on medium speed for a minute, then high speed until completely smooth. Add remaining filling ingredients and mix well. Transfer mixture to a large ziplock bag, seal, and chill until ready to use.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Just before serving, snip the corner off the ziplock bag. Press the filling out of the snipped corner into each cooled pie crust "cup." Sprinkle with mini chocolate chips or crushed pistachios (or both, as I did) as desired and serve.</div>

<span style="color: #b45f06; font-size: x-large;"><b>A Wee Tale of Turbans</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Who exactly are the Berber people of Morocco? They are a pre-Arab culture that dates to prehistoric times. Called <i>Amazigh (</i>plural: <i> Imazighen--</i>spellings vary<i>), </i>or"free, noble men,"<i> </i>in their own language<i>, </i>they ruled Morocco and a wide swath of North Africa for thousands of years. Never conquered, these hardy desert people fought against the Romans, Arabs, and French invaders of their land, all the while maintaining their proud culture and language. In modern Morocco, they represent a majority of today's population, functioning as farmers, merchants, traders, as well as working in the tourist industry, where I am lucky enough to count many as my friends and family. So what does all this have to do with turbans, you ask?</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Turbans are not unique to the Berbers of Morocco, of course. Of course. Turbans are worn by various people all over the world, ranging from the Horn of Africa, the North of Africa, to Afghanistan (and neighboring "stans"), Myanmar, India, Greece, Armenia, Iran, and all the way to Indonesia. As a form of head covering they range from simple to dramatically complex and in colors from white or black to outrageous combinations of dynamic hues and patterns. They delineate peoples, tribes, and religion, being worn by Christians, Muslims, Jews, Rastafarians, and Sikhs. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I was probably first exposed to them by my own mother, who occasionally wore one as some sort of fashion statement in the early fifties, a perhaps misguided inspiration stemming no doubt from Hollywood. And in my various travels I have encountered turbans in all of the places I mentioned above, except for Myanmar and Armenia, where I have yet to visit. But my true fascination with the turban came with my exposure to its varying forms and regional styles in Morocco, where I am lucky enough to annually lead small groups. Whether simply wound and relatively plain, or elaborately styled and dramatic, turbans in Morocco are singularly beautiful and incredibly practical. Providing not only a unique style and personal fashion statement, they are amazingly practical as well, offering shelter from sun, wind, cold, and blowing sand. Yes, over the years I have come to appreciate them at multiple levels.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Here are a few photos of the turbans of Morocco, mainly worn by Berbers of various tribes. And friends. And by me, of course. I wouldn't leave for the desert without one!</div>

As for me...I always wear one when I go out on a camel trek for an overnight in the desert...and it always comes in handy as protection from the elements. Plus, I am just silly enough to enjoy the costume effect it has for foreigners like me. I may feel part Moroccan in my heart, but yes, I am still a tourist.<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #cc0000;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
There are times when I miss my family and my roots so much that I just get over-whelmed by the need of comfort food. I may not have lived in rural South Florida since the 70s, but roots I have there. And while I occasionally feel, in a weak moment, that I claim expedient parentage (i.e. sometimes I glam onto my French-Italian paternal links, and sometimes my mother's down-home Southern "Georgia" genes), when I look for comfort, I look toward the south, the Deep South, that is. The Deep South of the United States. It seems not to matter that I haven't lived there really since the mid-70s when I first left for an overseas posting; I still look to my mother's home cooking for comfort.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
And what better old-fashioned comfort than a basic Chicken Pot Pie, I ask? But when I wanted to teach it in my classes for Mexican cooks, guilt took over and I just had to tart it up a bit, make it modern, pretend that it was far more upscale than it really is. When I spied these modern, upscale, tarted up chicken pot pie disguised in 21st-century garb (in the September edition of the Canadian magazine <a href="http://www.chatelaine.com/recipe/world-cuisine-2/upside-down-chicken-pot-pies/">Chatelaine</a>), I knew I had found a perfect marriage: comfort food + a hint of modernity to make it truly acceptable for a cooking class.</div>

Puff Pastry Squares with Onion and Peppers</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I have made many Chicken Pot Pies, in my day. Many. Often pretending that they were modern and fresh, I always secretly knew that I was just seeking basic comfort, just like my Mom, and occasionally Swanson's jazzed up frozen ones, offered me in my youth. I have made them whole wheat crusts, Cheddar crusts, latticed crust, with biscuits, with biscuit mix (yes, I know...), with herb-enriched pastry, with frozen pastry, with phyllo...and filled with many things other than the basic chicken and vegetables as well. So when I saw this recipe, I just took the basic idea and then decided to wing it with the filling. I forgot when writing it down that I sometimes add a splash of sherry, which my own mother would never have done. Nor did I here, for that matter. But only because I forgot. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<i>Cook's Notes: </i>What you are looking for here is just a basic mix of vegetables to go with your chicken and sauce(I poached the chicken here). I have added asparagus, carrots, turnips, rutabaga (oh, I would kill for some rutabaga now, but can't yet find it here), potatoes, sweet potatoes, butternut squash, fresh corn...etc. But to me the essentials really are just mushrooms, broccoli, and peas. Yes, frozen peas. I know. I know. I am stretching it here.</div>

I do love the typical foolery of good oxymoron, and yet I cringe at being the creator of one. "Oxymoron," you ask? What does Bánh Mì Rice Salad have to do with oxymorons? Because the term "báhn mì" is Vietnamese for "bread", and there is nary a whiff of bread in this salad. So to back up...let's examine exactly what we are talking about here.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Although I have been lucky in my life to travel extensively in Asia (Indonesia, Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, Taiwan, the Philippines, Japan, and bits of China--many of these countries multiple times), I have never traveled to Vietnam (nor Myanmar, for that matter)--and yet, Vietnamese food is one of my favorite cuisines. When in Paris, or other places where a concentration of Vietnamese people guarantees good Vietnamese restaurants, I always head there, loving the bright, fresh, clean taste of the food, heady with fresh herbs and just screaming "Healthy!" Yet, I have never traveled in the country itself. Yet.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
After a bit of experience with a favorite snack sandwich to grab on the go, I thought I had a handle on the "Bánh Mì," or Vietnamese Baguette Sandwich. That is until I read a post by a favorite Australian blogging friend, Lorraine Elliot of the popular <a href="http://www.notquitenigella.com/">Not Quite Nigella</a> blog. In Lorraine's post "T<a href="http://www.notquitenigella.com/2014/02/10/best-banh-mi-sydney/">he Amazing Bánh Mì Race</a>" she reviews a selection of Sydney's ten best bánh mì sandwiches that will make you weep with envy, or at least drool. Or perhaps lick the screen.</div>

<br />
Of course the French occupation of French Indochina, now Vietnam, left a huge impact on the cuisine, often creating a happy fusion of both ingredients and techniques. The bánh mì sandwich is one example. The "bánh mì", or bread, here is a type of Vietnamese baguette, but one made with rice flour as well as the traditional wheat flour, or <i>mì, </i>which yields a lighter loaf.<i> </i>The bánh mì sandwich typically is filled with "seasoned pork belly, Vietnamese sausage, grilled pork, grilled pork patties, spreadable pork liver pâté, pork floss, grilled chicken, chicken floss, canned sardines in tomato sauce, soft pork meatballs in tomato sauce, head cheese, fried eggs, and tofu," or so Wikipedia tells me. Not having traveled the country, I can only attest to some version of pork belly in the many báhn mìs I have tried. But my mouth waters thinking of other possibilities.<br />
<br />
A bit more fun history of the bánh mì sandwich from Wikipedia, says that a vegetarian version of any sandwiches, such as a báhn mì made with tofu or seitan, are not really found as street food in Vietnam, but are prepared at Buddhist temples during special religious events. In the US, the sandwich can also be found under the name of "Vietnamese sandwich", or in Louisiana a "Vietnamese po' boy, or in Philadelphia as a "Vietnamese hoagie," the common thread being the baguette that is used as the bread wrapper.<br />

<br />
When I saw a recipe for a salad version of bánh mì in the new edition of <i>Coastal Living Magazine, </i>I new immediately that I would like it. Filled with the ingredients I expected, I knew it would have that clean, fresh taste that always draws me to Vietnamese food. And it does! And I could eat the lovely pickled red onion and carrots just with a fork on their own--soooo good and light.<br />
<br />
<i>Cook's Notes: </i>I doubled the amount of the rice vinegar dressing, and used Mexican pickled red serrano chiles and pickled jalapeños instead of fresh ones. I had to peel a waxed cucumber as I didn't have any English ones. Plus, I added some onion sprouts just because I had them and thought them pretty. I don't think basil leaves would go amiss either, but that might be even less authentic than serving this as a salad. Not sure. We made this in one of my cooking classes for Mexica cooks last week and I used pork <i>milanesas,</i> which were already sliced thin. I should have cooked these on an iron grill pan, to really give the pork that roasted flavor, instead of the "green" pan we used, which didn't really brown it enough. Still, this is a great salad.<br />

For those of you who don't live in Mexico, the thought of vanilla with seafood might seem odd. Odd, indeed! But over time, given that vanilla originated in the jungles near Veracruz, Mexico, and the fact that Mexico has well over 9000 km of coastline...well, the marriage of the two seems inevitable here, and it is no wonder it found its way to the world of <i>alta cocina, </i>or the <i>haute cuisine </i>of my adapted home. And what a lovely coupling it is! Vanilla lends a spicy nuance, a hint of mystery, a note of exotica to almost any dish it enhances, but the sheer beauty of it sings when paired with wine and butter as it is in this dish.</div>

<i>Cook's Notes:</i> I decided to double up on the amount of tomato, which in retrospect was a mistake, as it soaked up a bit too much of the beurre blanc. A tablespoon would have been just right. In fact, the next time I make this, I will double the amount of the beurre blanc instead!</div>

<span style="color: #0b5394; font-size: x-large;"><b>Los Mariachis</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
Influenced by both polkas and waltzes, mariachi groups now
include such instruments as the violin, guitar, harp, woodwinds, trumpet, <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">guitarrón </i>and the high-pitched <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">vihuela</i>, round-backed guitar which
provides rhythm, although in the beginning, only string instruments were used.
Originally a form of folk music called <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Son
Jaliscience,</i> designating its origins near Guadalajara in the state of
Jalisco, this regional style of music migrated from the countryside to the
urban centers of Guadalajara and Mexico City as workers began flocking to the
cities in the early 1900s looking for work.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>What began as a local gathering of musicians/farmworkers,
evolved into a sophisticated collection of talented musicians who became an
essential part of the national identity.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
Eventually, the evolution even included the gradual changing of
its name to <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">mariachi.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></i>The name <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">mariachi </i>itself is thought to have derived from the French word <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">marriage, </i>dating from the 1860s when
French influence in Mexico was at its height.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Other stories claim it comes from the name of an indigenous
tree—or possibly from a local persona called “Maria H,” which would be
pronounced <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Mari-Ache.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></i>Whatever the provenance of the name
and the music, both are firmly planted now in the consciousness of the
nation.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>As a regional folk music
from Jalisco, or possibly even Colima, Nayarit and even Michoacán, it has been
transformed over time into a national phenomenon, a popular treat for all at family
celebrations, political events, and restaurants, a part of the national identity and a mark of great pride.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></div>

On this occasion, the 65<sup>th</sup> birthday of our

Sweet Corn Season. Does life get any better? Perhaps my love of this vegetable stems from growing up in western Palm Beach County, where the rich black earth produced, what to me, is the best corn in the world. During the season, a crate of corn would magically appear on our doorstep at least once a week--and our family of five consumed it all, every time. With gusto. While my mother usually cooked it in a skillet with bacon, these recipes I am giving you here represent perhaps more modern ways to enjoy this seasonal treat.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
The first recipe is for a warm corn salad with two kinds of cheeses and a citrus aioli. Rich and delicious. The second recipe is hardly a recipe at all, just sweet corn sautéed in butter and tossed with fresh basil. Equally yum. And so worth sharing.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #b45f06; font-size: x-small;">Serves 8</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
10 ears of corn, shucked</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Salt</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Pepper</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
1/2 cup mayonnaise</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
1/2 teaspoon finely grated lime zest, plus 3 tablespoons fresh lime juice</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
1/2 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest, plus 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for brushing</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
1 garlic clove, finely grated or pressed</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
1/8 teaspoon cayenne</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
2 ounces <i>queso fresco </i>(or farmer's cheese or ranch cheese), crumbled (1/2 cup)</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
2 ounces <i>queso cotija (</i>or feta), finely crumbled (1/2 cup)</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
1/4 cup chopped parsley</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
1/4 cup chopped cilantro</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the corn and a generous pinch of salt and return to a boil. Remove from the heat, cover, and let stand for 5 minutes. Drain the corn and let cool slightly.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk the mayonnaise with the lime and lemon zests and juices along with the 1 tablespoon olive oil, the mustard, garlic, and cayenne. Season the citrus aioli with salt.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Light a grill or preheat a grill pan. Brush the corn with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill over high heat, turning occasionally, until lightly charred all over, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a plate and let cool slightly, then cut the kernels off the cobs; discard the cobs.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
In a large bowl, toss the corn with the softened butter. Stir in the citrus aioli. Ad the cheeses, parsley, and cilantro. Season with salt and pepper and serve warm.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Make ahead: The aioli can be refrigerated overnight.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I asked a moment ago if life got any better than Sweet Corn Season, and well, yes, it does. Indeed it does. In Mexico, with loving Mexican friends and family, it certainly does.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
In life it doesn't always work out that we love the families of those that become almost unintentionally intertwined with our own, but happily in the case of our son's wonderful girlfriend, Isa, and her equally wonderful extended family, it does. To have our families mesh together in harmony and in fun as well is an added benefit to having Isa in our lives. It is a joy, a much-appreciated joy.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Mexican fiestas, big or small, are just a Force of Nature. I know no other way to describe them. Full of life, unbridled joy, music, food, dancing, with people of all ages participating at every level--the are always almost uncomprehendingly wonderful. And Isa's twenty-second birthday fiesta was no exception.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Hosted by her family at their delightful B&B, <a href="http://elzaguanhotel.wix.com/elzaguan">Zaguán</a> Hotel Bed & Art, which is a B&B, café (I could weep over the eggs baked en cocotte with olive oil and roasted garlic...sigh...), and art gallery combined, the venue was perfection itself. Creative and fun, the location just cries out for a party.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Perhaps the most common food served at a Mexican fiesta is fresh vegetables and a mixture of meats grilled and then served with soft corn tortillas and a variety of salsas to spice them up. Known as a <i>parrillada </i>in Mexico, (a grill is called a <i>parrilla</i>), these barbecues are often a communal effort. And in spite of the fact that Alfredo, Isa's father is a superlative chef, I saw at least five different people lending a hand to the grilling efforts at this party!</div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
I have lived in Mexico for 28 years.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Over time, I have experienced countless
fiestas.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>No matter the occasion,
each one was studded with multiple generations enjoying with great gusto the
good food, dancing, and always the music, whether piped-in popular songs with or without a dj, mariachis,
local groups...or just friends with guitars.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>But the music at this particular party was special indeed.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>And a little different.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
For Isabel’s twenty-second
birthday, we got to experience it all:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>four generations of family, a <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">parrillada
</i>(Mexican mixed grill), dancing (Isa’s beautiful grandmother insisted I
dance, but my gringa hips just didn’t move like hers!), and a special kind of
music.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Like celebrations all over the world, no Mexican fiesta
would be complete without some form of music.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Lucky for us, at Isa’s birthday party, it came in the form
of <i>Son Jarocho </i>music, played by guests, many of whom came with their instruments in hand.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><i>Son Jarocho </i>is a centuries-old style of
regional Mexican folk music which originated in the coastal state of Veracruz
and bits of the coastal areas of southern Tamaulipas state as well.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The actual term <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">jarocho,</i> is a colloquial term for anyone or anything from the port
city of Veracruz.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>In terms of its
musical reference, it represents a fascinating fusion of indigenous, Spanish,
Caribbean, and African musical elements that evolved over time in that busy port
city.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The lyrics include typical
references, often full of humor, to love, nature, sailors, and other less
widespread subjects such as cattle-breeding as well!</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The eclectic ensemble of of musicians that slowly gathered at this party brought with them an interesting array of instruments, including 3 <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">jaranas </i>(more on these later), a guitar,
a double bass (contrabass), and drums in the form of tabletops. After a few songs, I asked one Mexican friend, Cesar, about the
music, specifically wanting to know if these songs were really old, as I
suspected. His answer: <i>!</i><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Muy muy viaja!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></i>Very very old. I knew that already in my bones, but it felt good
having it verified. He said most of the songs were from Veracruz, but some from the state of Jalisco as well.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
At another point, it seemed to me that the music was just
flowing in an improvisational way, with one singer calling out a lyric and
another spontaneously answering it--much like a modern jam session, but with ancient sounds and
instruments.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>A little research
later proved this to be true.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>These improvised verses are called <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">décimas</i>—and
their content can be quite racy and funny as well.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">jarana jarocho</i>
is the instrument most often associated with this style of music, and we were
blessed with three! The <i>jarana</i> looks like
a large ukulele or small guitar, which upon closer inspection revealed 8
strings, 4 singles and 2 sets of pairs. I have no idea how this works, nor did I need to. I just was happy to let these authentic
tunes and slightly strange music wash over me.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The double bass was provided by the daughter of the friend
mentioned above, a delightful 22-year-old, Estrella, who is studying jazz on the bass in
Mexico City, and who is soon to transfer to Los Angeles to continue her training.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> I have known her since she was a very young child, but hadn't seen her in years. Her father, a well-know political activist, conservationist, and preservationist of Mexican culture, is a musician as well. </span>But as for this <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">son jarocho</i> style of music...I suspect it is just in her genes and that she never studied it at all, so effortless was the process.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Watching and listening to her and her
father as they played off each other, sipping smoky <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">mezcal </i>the whole time, was a rare treat, one I won't soon forget.</div>

I love it when I find a recipe that screams "easy, delicious, flexible." Of course, I am ignoring the calorie factor. And we will not be discussing fat content. Still...for a treat...this recipe delivers. A week ago I taught this particular dessert recipe to my cooking class comprised of Mexican cooks who are expanding their repertoires by learning international cuisine--or should I say "non-Mexican cuisine" since clearly there is no one international cuisine! <br />
<br />
I was drawn to this recipe because it just looked comforting and "morish" and I knew that it would be simple to switch out the fruits. The original <a href="http://www.foodandwine.com/recipes/blueberry-mousse">recipe</a>, which I found in the August 2015 edition of <i>Food and Wine Magazine,</i> was a simple Blueberry Mousse. And though we also made a lovely mango version, I am certain that guava, guanabana, plum, apple, pear, peach...and any seasonal berry all would be equally good (strain out unnecessary seeds, of course). We made two versions using fresh fruit (though frozen would also work): blueberry and mango. I also thought that substituting 1 1/2 cups top quality fruit jam for the fruit/sugar mixture would also work. How much would I love this made with a proper English orange marmalade made from Seville oranges????? Yes.</div>

<span style="color: #674ea7;">(<a href="http://www.foodandwine.com/recipes/blueberry-mousse">Recipe</a> from Food and Wine Magazine, August 2015)</span><br />
<span style="color: #674ea7;">Serves 4</span><br />
<span style="color: #674ea7;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
1 cup blueberries, plus more for garnish (or other berries or soft fruit)</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
1/2 cup sugar</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
1 teaspoon kosher salt</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
1 cup sour cream</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
8 ounces cream cheese, softened</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
1 cup heavy cream, chilled</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Chopped pistachios, for garnish</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
In a small saucepan, mash the 1 cup of blueberries with the sugar and salt and bring to a simmer over moderate heat. Cook, stirring, until jammy, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and scrape the jam into a food processor. Let cool completely.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Add the sour cream and cream cheese to the food processor and puree with the jam until smooth. In a large bowl, beat the heavy cream to soft peaks. Fold in the berry cream until blended. Spoon the mousse into glasses and sprinkle with chopped pistachios and blueberries. A sprig of mint wouldn't go amiss either!</div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
Okay, now it is your turn to remind me that I swore years ago that I would never write restaurant reviews. And truly, I won't. But I do think it is time to share a few positive food experiences in favorite local haunts.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
When my son visits from Mexico City, the first thing he asks when I pick him up at the bus station is, "What's for dinner, Mum?." He didn't disappoint yesterday when he said this plus his usual addendum: "Were we going for some seafood first?" Of course we were. I am weak, you see. And I, too, being a Florida Gal at heart, love seafood. So off he, his precious girlfriend Isa, and I went to Muelle 13, also known as El Marlín Azul, for the giant papier mache marlin that hangs over the entrance (for those of you in SMA, this is located at Stirling Dickinson #13). I may indeed love fresh seafood, but I need to add that my son Zack would crawl to most places to get good octopus, and Isa, who was born and raised in Puerta Vallarta, Mexico, craves the food of her roots just as much--and she always says that this Mazatlán-style seafood is close enough to that of its PV neighbor to strike a chord for her.<br />
<br /></div>

Yes, this giant poster is over-the-top tongue-in-cheek fun, as SMA is far from the sea. I do appreciate a bit of pure silliness.</div>

Zack always starts with a Seafood <i>Michelada </i>(see my recipe for <i>miches</i> <a href="http://flavorsofthesun.blogspot.mx/search?q=food+truck+weekend">here</a>--without the seafood). At Muelle 13, the <i>micheladas</i> can be ordered with seafood added to the beer-based drink.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Isa opted for a large Mason jar filled with <i>Agua de Cebada, </i>or Barley Water (I would call it <i>horchata--</i>see my version of Oat and Rice Horchatas<a href="http://flavorsofthesun.blogspot.mx/search?q=horchata"> here</a>) dusted with cinnamon. Refreshing, yet filling.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
As for me, I picked a <i>Margarita de Coco, </i>or Coconut Margarita, which was fantastic and a first for me to enjoy a margarita made with this flavor--rather like a Piña Colada made with tequila and no pineapple, if that makes sense. Loved it. Cost: 40 pesos or US$2.50</div>

Choosing a main dish is almost impossible for me at this charming restaurant. The menu is large, but not suspiciously so, as it reflects the various styles in which any of the fresh seafood can be prepared.</div>

For my foreign readers, the exchange rate to the US$ is about 16 pesos to 1 dollar--so any dish costing 160 pesos would be the equivalent of US$10</div>

Though I frequently order the delicious shrimp burger and fries, yesterday I opted for a cooked shrimp, ceviche-style, but cooked, on a <i>tostada, </i>or crispy corn tortilla. I could swoon just thinking about it. Let me also say that this is bigger than it looks. For under US$3, it was plenty for a meal for me.</div>

To complete my non-review of this favorite restaurant, let me just sum up by saying the total concept of casual atmosphere, eclectic decorations, fresh seafood prepared in the best of the best Mexican traditions, plus great prices makes this restaurant a real winner. With its casual <i>ambiente, </i>plastic chairs and gravel floor...if I closed my eyes and could hear a hint of surf, I would swear I was lounging at a Mexican beach. We may go back today!</div>

When I am thinking superficially, I suspect that I secretly live for cheese. I just love the stuff. Strong, mild, soft, hard, sharp, pungent, nutty, acidic, floral, earthy, complex, mottled, peppery, fermented, herbaceous, intense, or tart...yep, I love them all. Each and every one. So when looking for a quick, stand-in appetizer, I naturally look for cheese. When there is no time for a proper cheese tasting plate, I often opt for something as simple as this dish: Goat Cheese Slathered with Fig Jam and Topped with Toasted Salted Pumpkin Seeds. Dead easy. Dead delicious. Tangy, sweet, salty...all these flavors blend perfectly with the accompanying textures: crunchy, soft, and gooey. A winner in every way. And did I mention that you can usually pull it together in about five minutes with ingredients you probably have on hand?</div>

<i>Cook's Notes: </i>San Miguel's largest supermarket usually carries a nice variety of English jams, of which fig is normally one. Not so on the day when I made this. So...I opted for pear, which made a nice substitute. Because I also failed to find pre-toasted and salted <i>pepitas, </i>or pumpkin seeds, I heated a bit of olive oil in a skillet and toasted raw ones for a few minutes until they popped, then ground coarse sea salt over them. Nice. Of, and of course, I probably tripled the amount of jam and <i>pepitas, </i>called for in the recipe just because I just don't seem to be a moderate person in general and because more just seemed better.<br />
<br />

<span style="color: blue; font-size: x-large;"><b>Recipe: Fig and Pepita Goat Cheese Log</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: blue;">(Recipe adapted slightly from <a href="http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/katie-lee/fig-and-pepita-goat-cheese-log.html">Food Network</a>)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: blue;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
One 15.5 oz log goat cheese (I chose plain, but herbed with garlic would have been nice as well)</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
1/4 cup fig jam, or to taste</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
1/2 cup toasted, salted shelled pumpkin seeds (see Cook's Notes)</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Place the goat cheese log on a cheese board, plate, or platter. Spoon the fig jam over the goat cheese, gently spreading it with the back of the spoon. Sprinkle the pumpkin seeds over the jam to coat. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve with crostini or crackers.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Although I rarely write a restaurant "review", I did choose to do so last week as I had eaten two fabulous lunches two days in a row in two very different types of eating establishments. Two meals, completely different from each other, each lovely in its own way.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
As you probably know, the first restaurant was Las Cazuelas Mexican buffet in nearby Comonfort--terrific, reasonably priced Mexican fare with the best <i>chiles rellenos capeados </i>ever!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
What will be the second restaurant, friends have written to ask? Knowing me, I think they suspected Don Taco Tequila for my favorite addictive ancho chile taco stuffed with goat cheese (yes, cheese again), almonds and a touch of honey--and of course with tortilla chips served with their salsas, which I think are the BEST five table salsas in San Miguel. Is it DTT? No. Could it be Delica Mitsu, the Japanese deli/cafe where I go frequently for my bento box fix (always with their hijiki salad)? Not this time. Firenze or The Restaurant for their special offerings, the former always perfectly executed if small in number, the latter always innovative? No, indeed not this time. Mi Vida for their duck ragu? Although I would almost crawl there to enjoy it...not for this review. Hecho en Mexico for its reliable everything, from hamburgers on sour dough bread, to crispy fried chicken or squid, to that huge and yummy Thai-Mex salad? Nah. Buen Dia Cafe, my favorite breakfast spot (though Cafe Monet does a good eggs Benedict) for its unbelievably delicious cappuccino and green <i>chilaquiles? </i>No, not breakfast on that day. Media Naranja for the best tortilla soup in town? Too hot still for hot soup. Rosewood for its Sunday brunch at which I always overdo it...starting with a tamarind margarita, moving on to smoked salmon and cheese, then to the grilled food <i>a la parilla, </i>and still on to the beautiful dessert spread? Nope, it wasn't Sunday. Pizza Pig for great thin-crust pizza (I am NOT from Chicago--none of that thick stuff for me, please) and delicious salad? No, we met in the historic centro. Or speaking of out of town, perhaps Los Senderos with its house organic garden of vegetables and beautiful vistas--and great food as well. No, we weren't out of town, as I said. Fenicia for my regular fix of properly prepared Lebanese-style hummus and a spot-on mezze plate of equally authentic Middle Eastern fare? Not on that Thursday. Perhaps a quiche and salad from Cumpunio or one of Robin's terrific desserts from across the street at El Pegaso? No, and no again. Vivoli for the unctuous olivado and homemade bread which arrives as soon as you are seated? No. So which restaurant did my old and very dear friend and EXCELLENT travel writer Donna Meyer (visit Donna's beautifully-executed blog Nomad Women <a href="http://www.nomadwomen.com/">here</a>) and I choose for our long-overdue reunion? Scroll down to see.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
For Restaurant #2, Donna and I chose Néctar, the quiet and subtly elegant Casa de Té en Camino Silvestre on Correo. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
And now to continue with the "Why Do I Do What I Do" theme I began last week. Why, exactly, did I choose this particular restaurant?</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Because I so love al fresco dining, could it be because of the visually stimulating courtyard of the restaurant itself and its charming manager Juan Carlos Cuevas Almazán? Both nice, but no.</div>

Is it because when my son worked with this beautiful company I inadvertently learned more than I would ever have guessed about all things hummingbird--and learned to appreciate the beauty of all of the handmade hummingbird feeders and the other tasteful <i>objets d'art </i>that Camino Silvestre sells? <i>Non.</i></div>

So, what led my dear friend and me to this peaceful spot? Why, the food, of course. The food and the fascinating offerings on the completely tea-inspired menu. Something a little different, a characteristic which is always pulls at my heartstrings.</div>

Etched pitchers hold the infused drinks, the salad dressing, and simple syrup. And while the drinks alone here cost more than the entire last buffet with drink included that I wrote about last week, the prices are still very reasonable.</div>

This vegetarian menu has it all...Gluten-free options, salmon and shrimp dishes for the flexitarians, a selection of vegetarian pâtés (my usual menu choice) for the hedonists like me...nay, for the sensualists (I like that better), salads, sandwiches, veggie burgers, and more...and each dish is infused with tea. Yes, "tea!" What a delightful concept which yields delicious results!</div>

While I haven't exhausted the menu offerings, this is a fair sample of the interesting, innovative and utterly delicious food served at Néctar. Each of our main dishes cost 100 pesos, or about US$6.25 and the generous portions of the fruit tea infusion drinks were 70 pesos each, or about US$4.35. I am never disappointed when I eat here--and I always leave feeling gently stimulated by the artistic surroundings and replete with the satisfaction of having eaten something delicious, interesting, different, and healthy! <br />
<br />
Do I prefer one of these restaurants over the other--the fun and economical all-Mexican buffet from Las Cazuelas in Comonfort or the quietly elegant modern vegetarian fare from San Miguel's Néctar in the courtyard of Camino Silvestre? Do I prefer one over the other? No. Not at all. The are both wonderful choices, each special in its own way, each with delicious food. Kudos to both restaurants for jobs well done.<br />

Most of my regular readers know that I teach almost on-going courses of international cuisine to Mexican cooks in San Miguel de Allende, where I live. The cooks, who mainly work for foreigners, come to me to learn to prepare food other than their native cuisine, with which they are proficient. It is about job security. It is about life learning. It is about increasing skills. It is about love of cooking. For the cooks, it is all those things and more. For me, it is about love. I can say from the depths of my heart that I love this part of my work and always learn far more from them than I teach in return. Through this work I continue to grow in my appreciation of the sheer generosity of the Mexican people, about which I have written before. I continue to be in awe of women struggling to make a better life for their families by capitalizing on what they do best. Yes, for me it is about love--and empowerment for these (mainly) women who have become so very dear to me.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
One of the things that continues to fascinate me about these Mexican cooks is their love of decorating. Sure, I can give them plating ideas, more modern presentation, suggestions for garnishing...but I can't teach them a thing about decoration--not of cakes, not of desserts in general, and certainly not about such dishes as these fruit pizzas or a basic fruit tart. Once I have shown them a few images of similar decorations as these online, I put out the fruit and stand back--not offering a single word of advice, never interfering. And without fail, I am dazzled by their efforts. Far better than my own would be, I'm certain. </div>

Having seen a number of fruit pizzas on the internet lately, I decide to teach the cooks how to make one in class. When I spotted <a href="http://www.cookingchanneltv.com/recipes/kelsey-nixon/sugar-cookie-crust-fruit-pizza.html">this one</a> on The Cooking Channel, I knew it would be perfect for my students. And my mind continues to whirl with other possibilities: Chocolate sugar cookie crust or a thin brownie? Chocolate chip cookies? Oatmeal cookies? I would think any cookie dough would work fine for this without any real adjustments.<br />
<br />
<i>Cook's notes: </i>If you have never tried to cut strawberries with a slicer designed for hard cooked eggs, you should do so! It works perfectly. You know the kind--with wires and a plastic base? Also, don't omit the <i>herbes de Provence</i> in the glaze--they give it a subtle taste and a feeling of <i>je ne sais pas. I</i><br />

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugars until smooth using a handheld mixer. Add in the egg and vanilla and mix until incorporated. Slowly incorporate the flour mixture into the creamed butter, and mix until blended. Remove the dough from the bowl and press it into the prepared pan or onto the prepared cookie or pizza pan. (You may need to dust your hands with some flour to prevent the dough from sticking to them; it is a wet dough when it comes together). Bake until the edges just start to brown, 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>For the spread: </b>In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese, confectioners' sugar, vanilla, lemon zest and salt until smooth. Spread evenly on the cooled crust.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>For the glaze: </b>Add the marmalade, 2 tablespoons water and the herbs de Provence to a small pot and cook over medium heat until loosened and warm.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>To assemble: </b>Arrange the fresh fruit in the desired pattern on top of the pizza. Brush the fruit with the glaze. Slice and serve.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
A note from the author of the recipe: An offset spatula is a great tool for spreading the cookie dough. If dough is too soft to work with, chill it in the refrigerator before proceeding.</div>

<span style="color: #cc0000; font-size: x-large;"><b>Part I: A Tale of Two Restaurants</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
When it comes to restaurants, I am nondiscriminatory. Well...let me clarify. I do discriminate when it comes to the quality of the food. Definitely, I do that. I mean, who wants to waste time on culinary mediocrity, right? But when it comes to my surroundings, be they humble, elegant, or somewhere in between, I absolutely do not care. Let there be cleanliness and good food, and I am a happy camper. And with this caveat, let me tell you a tale of two favorite restaurants in San Miguel de Allende and environs.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
In no particular order let me begin with Las Cazuelas, a family-run restaurant in the nearby town of Comonfort, about 20 minutes outside of San Miguel. This restaurant, which has indoor and outdoor seating is a gem--and this is from one who swore she wouldn't write restaurant reviews. If you are looking for honest, authentic Mexican fare at a shockingly low price, you just can't do better than this. Open 7 days a week, it is almost always packed both for breakfast and <i>comida, </i>with the dishes changing according to the time of day. <br />
<br />
Why do I love Las Cazuelas, you ask? Let me count the ways.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Is it because it costs only the equivalent of US$3.19 with a drink of fresh orange juice, (morning only), fruit water (<i>agua fresca</i>), soft drink or bottled water? No.</div>

No, it is not the cost. And anyway, it went up 20% last week and now costs about $3.83. A bargain, no doubt, for an all-you-can-eat buffet. But that is not why I love it.</div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
Is it the <i>chiles rellenos capeados? </i>Could it possibly be just for the fire-roasted poblano chiles stuffed with panela cheese and gently coated in a fine egg batter, then fried, then topped with a tomato <i>caldillo? </i>Could it be because I am half Southern and can't help but love something fried, even if I don't fry in my own kitchen? Does it help that they aren't greasy at all? Could it be that poblano chiles are probably my favorite vegetable in a wide world of vegetables that I love? Is it because panela, a non-melting cheese squeaks when you eat it, is low-fat, and reminds me of halloumi cheese that I adore but can't find yet in Mexico? Could it be one or all of these things? Yes, you have your answer. I have driven there four times in little over two weeks just for the these chiles. And if there are none yet out on display andI ask the friendly staff when they will be ready, he or she always tells me they won't <i>tardar mucho</i> (i.e. they won't be late) and then a plate of them magically appears on my table because they know, they just know that I can eat several. And do. Yes, you have your answer. <i>Chles Rellenos Capeados. </i>Probably my favorite Mexican dish. </div>

<div style="text-align: left;">

And finally a glimpse inside one of those perfect <i>rellenos</i> where you can actually see the both the deep green chile and the cheese. Oh my. I am hungry just looking at them. If I didn't have class tomorrow, I might just pop over and have one. Well, two.</div>

What else can be found inside those lovely clay <i>cazuela </i>dishes? Scrambled eggs in red sauce, pork skins in green sauce. a lovely <i>mole poblano, </i>chicken (plainly cooked to be eaten with the <i>mole</i>), cooked purslane, raw salads, slaw, <i>quelites </i>(greens--various types), beans (necessary--<i>charro </i>style, refried, plain--pintos and/or garbanzos), Mexican rices of different colors, and more. Much more. Just writing this makes me realize how much I love this country, its culture, its food, and most of all, its people.</div>
