The Humble Lemon

Amazing frozen lemons

All it is…..is a frozen lemon

Many professionals in restaurants and eateries are using or consuming
the entire lemon and nothing is wasted. How can you use the whole
lemon without waste?

Simple.. Place the washed lemon in the freezer section of your
refrigerator. Once the lemon is frozen, get your grater, and shred the
whole lemon (no need to peel it) and sprinkle it on top of your foods.

Sprinkle it to your vegetable salad, ice cream, soup, cereals,
noodles, spaghetti sauce, rice, sushi, fish dishes, whisky…. The
list is endless.

All of the foods will unexpectedly have a wonderful taste, something
that you may have never tasted before. Most likely, you only think of
lemon juice and vitamin C. Not anymore.

Now that you’ve learned this lemon secret, you can use lemon even in
instant cup noodles.

What’s the major advantage of using the whole lemon other than
preventing waste and adding new taste to your dishes?

Well, you see lemon peels contain as much as 5 to 10 times more
vitamins than the lemon juice itself. And yes, that’s what you’ve
been wasting.

But from now on, by following this simple procedure of freezing the
whole lemon, then grating it on top of your dishes, you can consume
all of those nutrients and get even healthier.

It’s also good that lemon peels are health rejuvenators in eradicating
toxic elements in the body.

So place your washed lemon in your freezer, and then grate it on your
meal every day. It is a key to make your foods tastier and you get to
live healthier and longer! That’s the lemon secret! Better late than
never, right? The surprising benefits of lemon!

Lemon (Citrus) is a miraculous product to kill cancer cells. It is
10,000 times stronger than chemotherapy.

Why do we not know about that? Because there are laboratories
interested in making a synthetic version that will bring them huge
profits.

You can now help a friend in need by letting him/her know that lemon
juice is beneficial in preventing the disease. Its taste is pleasant
and it does not produce the horrific effects of chemotherapy.

How many people will die while this closely guarded secret is kept, so
as not to jeopardize the beneficial multimillionaires large
corporations?

As you know, the lemon tree is known for its varieties of lemons and limes.

You can eat the fruit in different ways: you can eat the pulp, juice
press, prepare drinks, sorbets, pastries, etc… It is credited with
many virtues, but the most interesting is the effect it produces on
cysts and tumors.

This plant is a proven remedy against cancers of all types. Some say
it is very useful in all variants of cancer. It is considered also as
an anti microbial spectrum against bacterial infections and fungi,
effective against internal parasites and worms, it regulates blood
pressure which is too high and an antidepressant, combats stress and
nervous disorders.

The source of this information is fascinating: it comes from one of
the largest drug manufacturers in the world, says that after more than
20 laboratory tests since 1970, the extracts revealed that It destroys
the malignant cells in 12 cancers, including colon, breast, prostate,
lung and pancreas…

The compounds of this tree showed 10,000 times better than the product
Adriamycin, a drug normally used chemotherapeutic in the world,
slowing the growth of cancer cells.

And what is even more astonishing: this type of therapy with lemon
extract only destroys malignant cancer cells and it does not affect
healthy cells.

So, give those lemons a good wash, freeze them and grate them. Your
whole body will benefit from it!!!!!

Robert’s Jalapeño Ketchup

Before we begin…

  • The Jalapeño Puree (aka Chili Sauce)  takes about six months to age, so you might want to make several jars of the puree.  This will can very well.

This condiment will last you a few months

1/4 cup Franks Red Hot Cayenne Pepper Sauce
1/4 cup of Grandpa’s Jalapeño Chili Sauce
1 cup Heinz Ketchup

Consider MAKING YOUR OWN KETCHUP

Step by Step

  1. Mix well and bottle it up
  2. Keeps for a couple of months in the fridge

Oh, one more thing…

  • If you want REALLY HOT puree, just cut the stem off and use the whole pepper, seeds and all, for your chili sauce.  If you want good jalapeno flavor, but not quite as much heat, remove the seeds and veins from the pepper.
  • Be sure you wear gloves cause if you rub your eyes afterward it will hurt… A LOT.

1 cup (2 sticks) butter, softened
1 1/2 pounds confectioners’ sugar
1 (12-ounce) package semisweet chocolate chips
1/3 cake paraffin wax (see Note)

  2. Gradually add confectioners’ sugar, stirring until thoroughly mixed.
  3. Form mixture into 1-inch balls, place on a waxed paper-lined rimmed baking sheet, and chill for 1 hour.
  4. In a double boiler over medium heat, or in a saucepan over low heat, melt chocolate chips and paraffin wax, stirring until smooth.
  5. Stick a toothpick in the center of each peanut butter ball and dip each three-quarters of the way into the chocolate mixture, coating all sides except the top quarter.
  6. Place on the prepared baking sheet and remove toothpick.

Notes

Cake paraffin wax is commonly used in chocolate to assist in the process of melting and keep it solid at room temperature. You should be able to find paraffin wax at your grocery store in the aisle where canning supplies and jars are sold. You may also find it in the aisle where baking supplies are sold.

Chiles Rellenos

RECIPE FROM AllRecipes.com is below.


Overview

Makes: 4 servings

  • Roasted poblano chiles stuffed with loads of cheese, battered with an airy egg coating, and fried until crispy equate to the Mexican version of comfort food. Chiles rellenos fillings can range from ground or stewed meats to a medley of vegetables, but this recipe sticks to classic cheese. Our spicy roasted tomato salsa is the perfect foil to all of the fatty goodness here, but a Smooth Salsa Verde would also be tasty.
  • Game plan: Separate the eggs while they’re still cold, which will make them easier to handle; then let them come to room temperature. And make sure there are no traces of yolk in the whites, or the whites will not whip properly.
  • Coring and removing the seeds from the peppers is easier before roasting and keeps the peppers from tearing while stuffing in the cheese. Roasting over a gas flame keeps the peppers’ shape and texture intact during frying, but if you don’t have a gas stove, use the broiler in your oven (instructions below).
  • This recipe was featured as part of our No-Fail Mexican Favorites for Cinco de Mayo. by Christine Gallary

Instructions
For the salsa:

  1. Heat the broiler to high and arrange a rack in the upper third of the oven.
  2. Place the tomato halves skin-side up on a baking sheet. Scatter the onion, garlic, and serrano around the tomatoes.
  3. Broil until the tomato skins start to blacken and blister, about 7 minutes.
  4. Transfer the vegetables to a blender, add the measured lime juice and salt, and blend into a smooth purée.
  5. Taste and season with additional salt and lime juice as needed.
  6. Transfer to a small saucepan and keep warm over low heat.

For the chiles rellenos:

    1. Lay 1 chile on a work surface so that it sits flat naturally without rolling.
    2. Using a paring knife, make two cuts forming a “T” by first slicing down the middle of the chile lengthwise from stem to tip, then making a second cut perpendicular to the first about a 1/2 inch from the stem, slicing only halfway through the chile (be careful not to cut off the stem end completely).
    3. Carefully open the flaps to expose the interior of the chile and, using the paring knife, carefully cut out and remove the core.
    4. Scrape the inside with a small spoon to remove the seeds, ribs, and any remaining core.
    5. Repeat with the remaining peppers.
    6. Turn 2 gas burners to medium-high heat.
    7. Place 1 chile directly on each burner and roast, turning occasionally with tongs, until blackened and blistered on all sides, about 5 to 7 minutes.
      (Alternatively, heat the broiler to high and arrange a rack in the upper third of the oven.
    8. Place all of the chiles directly on the rack.
    9. Broil, turning occasionally with tongs, until the chiles blacken and blister on all sides, about 8 to 10 minutes.
    10. The chiles will be softer using the broiler rather than a direct flame, so be careful not to tear them while stuffing.)
    11. Remove to a large heatproof bowl; repeat with the remaining 2 chiles.
    12. Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap or a baking sheet and let the chiles steam until cool enough to handle, about 15 minutes.
    13. Using a butter knife, scrape away and discard the chile skins, being careful not to tear the chiles; set the chiles aside.
    14. Heat the oven to 250°F and arrange a rack in the middle.
    15. Place a wire rack over a baking sheet and set aside.
    16. Season the inside and outside of the chiles with salt and pepper.
    17. Stuff each chile, being careful not to tear them, with a quarter of the cheese (about a heaping 2/3 cup) and close the flaps over the cheese; set the chiles aside.
    18. Whisk the egg yolks in a medium bowl until lightened in color and frothy, about 2 minutes; set aside.
    19. Place the egg whites and measured salt in the clean, dry bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment. Beat on high speed until stiff peaks form, about 1 1/2 minutes.
    20. Remove the bowl from the mixer, add the egg yolks, and fold with a rubber spatula until just combined (do not deflate the egg whites); set aside.
    21. Heat the oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat until hot, about 4 minutes.
    22. Check to see if the oil is hot by submerging the handle of a wooden spoon or a wooden chopstick until it touches the bottom of the pan—the oil should bubble vigorously.
    23. Working with 1 chile at a time, drop 1/2 cup of the egg batter into the oil and use a rubber spatula to spread it to about the same size as the stuffed chile.
    24. Lay the chile seam-side down on top of the mound of batter.
    25. Drop another 1/2 cup of batter on top of the chile, spreading it with the rubber spatula to cover the sides and encase the chile.
    26. Cook without disturbing until the bottom of the chile relleno is golden brown, about 2 to 3 minutes.
    27. Using a flat spatula and a fork, carefully flip the chile relleno over and cook until the other side is golden brown, about 2 to 3 minutes. (If the sides of the chile are not brown, use a spatula or tongs to turn it onto each side to brown.)
    28. Transfer the chile relleno to the rack set over the baking sheet, season with salt, and place in the oven to keep warm.
    29. Repeat with the remaining stuffed chiles.
    30. To serve, spread 1/3 cup of the roasted tomato salsa on each plate and top with a chile relleno.
    31. Serve immediately, passing the remaining salsa on the side.

Yep, I was sipping the cooking sherry one night, and this InfoMercial came up. It looked GREAT. But wait, there’s more. I received not one, but TWO of this marvelous miniature kitchen food processor/chopper. Too good to be true? No. I’ve worn the first one out, and I am still happy while wearing the second one out. GET IT HERE directly from the manufacturer, or order it from Amazon Either way, it is about $60.

The recipe book IS NOT laid out very well. Many recipes finish on the NEXT page, so be sure to keep that in mind. Also, the blender is powerful, and liquids tend to sneak out the top, so I prefer usually to use it for chopping dry ingredients like cheese, nuts, etc.

HH_PancakesTo make pancakes for two people
1 TBL sugar
1 egg (beaten)
scant salt
2 TBL Melted butter (cooled)
1/2 C buttermilk
1 CU Pre-Mix – GET MY RECIPE HERE
About 1-2 TBL Canola oil for step 5
Canola oil (for pan)

If you like puffier pancakes, add an additional 1/4 C of pancake pre-mix before step 6

1. Preheat your skillet to between 350 and 400º degrees
2. Mix egg, sugar, salt and (cooled) melted butter
3. Beat to uniform consistency
4. Drizzle in buttermilk, and mix
5. Drizzle in oil
6. Add liquid mixture to Pre-Mix all at once
7. Stir only to moisten MOST particles. It doesn’t have to be completely moistened
– DO NOT OVER-MIX. – Over-mixing will result in tough pancakes
8. Let batter stand for two minutes to “rest”
9. Drizzle oil into pan
10. Add uniform amounts of batter to the pan
11. Cook until bubbles appear and edges start to cook
12. Flip to cook other side
