"My Caribbean Cookbook, Tastes Like Home"

"My Caribbean Cookbook, Tastes Like Home"
Greetings,

Yes, the wait for the much anticipated cookbook from Cynthia at Taste Like Home will be available on January 23, 09. Congratulations Cynthia!

The book is titled, "My Caribbean Cookbook, Tastes Like Home" is available online at My Caribbean Cookbook: Tastes Like. The book will be available in stores in the Caribbean and in the United Kingdom.
There will be two editions, hardback and Paperback, the hardback will retail for US$45 and the paperback for US$30.

The book is more than an average cookbook given that through the various articles, the user learns a little about our Caribbean culture through food. It will give you a deeper understanding and appreciation for what and how we cook and eat. Please get you copy and let me know what you have prepared. Enjoy. Take care and stay well, Del.

Redskins: I was rammed too

Greetings,

I was so stunned yesterday I do not have words for the Redskins this week. But I will say this, never take anyone for granted!!!

Do you know the role of a Running Back?

Greetings,

The Headlines read: Are they for Real? While many are still uncertain about the Redskins and where they are heading. We as fans are truly enjoying what they are doing now and for as long as it last we will celebrate. By the way do you know the role of a Running Back? Here is a formal definition, I think with this information you can do a better job that Gov. Palin did answering the question about her role in the office she is seeking. So here is to the Washington Redskins and CP for a great game:Jason Campbell #17 of the Washington Redskins congratulates teammate Clinton Portis #26 after his touchdown against the Philadelphia Eagles on October 5, 2008 at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

I love the way Randle El gave praise to source of all his strength in the post game interview. He made it plain that all his abilities come from the Lord who gives him all his strength. If you have the opportunity do look at that.

What came out of the Chrysalis Kitchen?

Greetings,

How was your weekend? Mine was wonderful as usual. I say as usual because I look forward to the weekend with great excitement because I get to spend lots of time with my loves. DH and food! So with all that love I made 'green seasoning'. Yep, I made my own green seasoning instead of waiting for my dear brother to send me some from Guyana. With inspiration from Cynthia, the Chrysalis Green Seasoning was made.

With all that creative juice flowing, I even made labels for the bottle I stored it in. And that felt especially good as my friend at I'm Definitely Up to Something mentioned in her post recently. I could not agree with her more and say that it really feels good when you are doing your part to preserve the environment. This by the way, if you are from the Caribbean you should know a lot about. I remember every container that was purchase had the potential of being used for something else so that is ingrained in me. So to act on the slogan “Reduce, Reuse, Recycle”, I reused a store bought spice bottle and outfitted with a label to make it my own green seasoning bottle. See photos below .

Ingredients

Spring Onions - 6 bundles

Garlic – 3 heads separated and nuked for 10 seconds in the microwave for easy peeling.

Mint leaves – 1 supermarket clamshell about 4 ounces

Oregano leaves – 1 supermarket clamshell about 6 ounces

Cilantro – 1 bundle

Flat leaf parsley – 1 bundle

Scotch Bonnet pepper – 5 or to your taste (from my garden)

Yellow or Spanish onion – quartered

White vinegar – ¼ cup

Kosher salt – ¾ tsp (optional)

Directions:

  • Trim, clean and was the onions, cilantro, and parsley; and pepper while wearing gloves
  • Slide garlic cloves from their peel
  • Wash and strip oregano and mint leaves
  • Combine all the herbs together in a large bowl
  • Pour enough vinegar to cover blender or food processor blade
  • Add a portion of the combine herbs and blend to desired texture
  • To remove excess water/vinegar pour green seasoning into colander over medium bowl
  • Combine green seasoning with salt; full storage container and enjoy.
The Chrysalis fresh green seasoning (more)

Stay tuned for homemade pesto from the basil abundance in the garden. Take care and stay well, Del
