Hi Nancy,

CONTINUED FROM PREVIOUS MESSAGE <<

get a ride from someone else in your group if Steve doesn't go...?

The co-ordinator of the group. Last time when Steve and I went, we
stopped at our favorite Indian restaurant on the way home. They folded
about 4 years ago so we no longer have that option.

Yes, and wanting to break away from the way of eating I was brought up
on. To this day I'll usually have an alternative to mashed potatoes, whether it's eating out or cooking at home. I'll make mashed for
certain meals, but not nearly every night like Mom did.

If your mother had been Irish, like our friend Helen, you might have
been brought up on two or three types of potato dishes with the meal.

When we moved to Anchorage our introduction to one of the neighbors was when she invited us over for a 4 course meal. All pasta, but it was colorful. :-) It was some sort of pointed joke aimed at her male friend, don't know if I knew
or even wanted to know what that was all about. Connie probably did though, so most likely I tried to be extra nice to her for a while.

Hi Dale,

If it's a variety of potato dishes, I've no problem. OTOH, mashed
potatoes, sometimes with gravy, sometimes not, day in and day out, I
have a harder time accepting. The gravy didn't do too much to the
potatoes but it was better than nothing.

Spuds ... I'd have to do some research on the protein aspect

They run close to 5% protein; not bad for a vegetable, but less than
grains and pulses. (Rice 8%, wheat 9-12%, pulses 20-25% vs. meats at
20-40%)

They are high in lysine but deficit in two other essential amino
acids called Methionine and Cysteine. One would have to eat 10
potatoes a day if they ate nothing else to get enough M&C.

Cornmeal runs 7% total protein. It is deficient in lysine and
tryptophan but has fair amounts of M&C. So corn and potatoes combine
well.

Title: Hot Tom Potatoes
Categories: Vegan, Potatoes, Chilies, Corn
Yield: 2 Servings

2 Fresh long slim red cayenne
Peppers, stemmed and minced
1 sm Red onion, coarsely chopped
1 ts Liquid smoke
1 tb Molasses
1 ts Salt
1 ts Ground black pepper
1 tb Fresh chopped garlic
1/2 c Tomato ketchup
1 lg Baking potato, unpeeled and
Cut into 1/4 inch slices
Yellow cornmeal
Oil for frying

Combine the cayenne peppers, onion, liquid smoke, molasses/syrup,
salt, black pepper, garlic and ketchup in a blender or food
processor equipped with a chopping blade. Puree for 1 to 2 minutes
until smooth.

Put the potato slices in a mixing bowl and cover with the sauce,
making sure that all the potato slices are coated. Marinate for at
least 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Preheat the oven to 350 F. Fill a small, shallow bowl halfway with
cornmeal. Have some more cornmeal on hand to sprinkle.

In a small frying pan, heat 1/2 inch of oil over medium heat. Stir
the potato slices in the sauce, making sure that each potato slice
is thickly coated, lay them one at a time on the cornmeal and
sprinkle cornmeal on top. Pick them up with a spatula or fork and
place in the hot oil. (you have to handle them with care or the
tomato sauce will slide right off the potato slice). Fry the
potatoes a few at a tome in a single layer so they don't stick
together. Turn them with care, frying both sides until they are
golden to deep brown, 3-5 minutes total. Remove from the oil and
drain on paper towels.

Lay the potato slices on a cookie sheet one layer deep. Bake until
they are tender when pierced with a fork, about 10 minutes. Serve
piping hot.

Vegetables loose vitamin C from:
-1-oxygenation
-2- high heat
-3- being water soluble, leaching

From that info it would seem that eating them raw
might be a good idea

Except for the fast that they are totally gross raw.

but then there are those solanine alkaloids to worry about

Not to mention indigestible resistant starches and the possibility
of e-coli from the dirt they're grown in.

Title: Scurvy Cure

One might substitute grapefruit juice for the lime
and call it a "Scurvy dog."

Another grapefruit cocktail ...

MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06

Title: Campari Paloma
Categories: Alcohol, Beverages
Yield: 1 servings

FOR THE SALTED GRAPEFRUIT
CORDIAL:
1/2 c Fresh juice from
2 lg Ruby Red grapefruit, plus
Peel of
1 Ruby Red Grapefruit with no
White pith
1 c Sugar
1/4 c Fresh juice from about
8 Limes
1/4 c Water
1 1/2 ts Kosher salt
FOR ONE COCKTAIL:
2 oz Blanco tequila
1 oz Salted Grapefruit Cordial
3/4 oz Fresh juice from 2 limes
1/4 oz Campari
Seltzer

Macerating grapefruit peels in sugar makes for a complex and
concentrated cordial.

Yield: Makes 1 cocktail and about 1 pint of Salted Grapefruit
Cordial (enough for 16 drinks)

For the Salted Grapefruit Cordial: Bury grapefruit peel in sugar
in a pint-sized container. Cover and refrigerate for 24 hours. The
next day, add grapefruit juice, 1/4 cup lime juice, water, and
salt to sugar and stir or shake until sugar is completely
dissolved. Remove grapefruit peel and refrigerate cordial, which
will last for several weeks.

For the Cocktail: In a cocktail shaker, combine tequila, 1 ounce
of cordial, 3/4 ounce of lime juice, and Campari. Fill shaker with
ice, and shake until well chilled, about 15 seconds. Strain into a
highball glass filled with ice and top with soda to taste. Garnish
with a grapefruit twist if desired.

Notes: Since you need the grapefruit peel on day 1 and the juice
on day 2, you can peel 1 grapefruit on the first day, then store
the peeled grapefruit in the refrigerator overnight until you are
ready to juice it the next day.

I'll have to try to remember that, should I go back into making a lot of meatless meals... ;)

Do you have the stats on what protein eggplant might have...? Usually
when that is the main part of a meal, it's combined with cheese (and
possibly eggs)... so it doesn't have to hold up that end so much... (G)

... Combining scallops and butter is basically never a bad idea.
