    Olive Brined Pork Tenderloin
    1 qt olive brine

    But, but, but... that could've made 12 quarts of dirty martinis! [g]

    Seriously I plan to try that. I use dill pickle juice for things a
    lot but have never found a use for olive brine before.

    Title: Panamanian Baked Or Grilled Tilapia In Banana Leaves
    Categories: Latin amer, Fish
    Servings: 4

    4 half pound fish filets
    4 TB achiote paste or powder
    4 oz naranja agria, bitter or
    Seville orange or lime
    juice
    2 TB each, capers, garlic and
    green pepper corns
    4 oz pimento stuffed green
    olives
    2 TB minced fresh oregano
    1 bn smooth culantro leaves
    2 ea medium roasted red and
    Ortega chilies, julienned
    4 lg eucalyptus or bay leaves
    As needed, processed and
    oiled banana leaves

    Mix the achiote and bitter orange juice into a paste Coat the fish
    filets with the paste, refrigerate for two hours Coarsely process
    the capers, garlic, pepper corns, oregano, and culantro Place the
    marinated filets on the oiled or pan sprayed banana leaves Top each
    filet with an equal portion of the processed puree Season each filet
    with shrimp powder, paste or a few drops of fish sauce Distribute
    the Julienne peppers and eucalyptus/bay leaves on each filet
    Securely wrap the filets with the banana leaves. Grill on the Barbie
    or bake in the oven at 350 F.

    Notes: Use any white fleshed fish you want. If using fresh banana
    leaves remember to cut the rib out of the center and briefly roast
    them over an open burner to make them pliable. To prevent sticking
    you should also lightly oil or pan spray the leaves before you place
    the fish and the vegetable in them. If grilling move the fish
    occasionally to prevent burning the banana leafs and cook the fish
    until it just feels firm when prodded with your finger. Don't
    marinate the fish too long or the citrus juice will "cook" it like
    ceviche. Serve the slit pouches with one of the condiments from the
    earlier chapter along with a large portion Pinto Gallo rice and
    beans.

    1 qt olive brine

    12 quarts of dirty martinis!

    1 1/2 oz gin, 1/2 oz vermouth plus 1 tsp olive
    juice. 1/2 tsp might be enough though.

    It may again be a function of my current
    enhanced salt sensitivity, but I was thinking
    a half dose was plenty.

    It would definitely be enough to taste.
