at the risk of sounding long winded again... I am about to head out to the market to get some provisions, my sister and mother are coming by for supper tomorrow evening so I've decided to prepare a glazed pork tenderloin dish. The recipe for which I found on recipezaar's website. Ingredients: 2 lbs pork tenderloins 1 (16 ounce) can unsweetened tart red cherries 1/2-1 cup cherry juice 4 teaspoons cornstarch 1/4 cup brown sugar 1/2 cup dried cranberries 1 teaspoon dijon mustard Directions: Preheat oven to 425°F. Season pork tenderloins with salt and pepper to taste. Place in shallow roasting pan. Roast tenderloins 20 to 25 minutes or until done (internal temp 155°F). Meanwhile, to make glaze, drain cherries, reserving liquid. Add enough cherry-flavored juice to cherry liquid to make one cup. Combine cornstarch and 2 tablespoons cherry liquid in small bowl. Mix cornstarch mixture into remaining liquid. Mix cherries, brown sugar, cranberries and cherry liquid in small saucepan. Cook, stirring constantly, until mixture boils and thickens; stir in mustard. Pour glaze evenly over tenderloins during last 10 minutes of roasting time. Slice tenderloins into medallions to serve. I'll serve this with blanched asparagus tips and roasted parisien patatoes Then serve this Apple/Cherry Cobbler recipe for dessert. Ingredients: 1 egg, beaten 1/2 cup sugar 1/2 cup milk 2 tablespoons vegetable oil 1 cup all-purpose flour 2 1/4 teaspoons baking powder 1 (21 ounce) can apple pie filling 1 (21 ounce) can cherry pie filling 1 tablespoon lemon juice 1 teaspoon vanilla extract Topping: 1/3 cup packed brown sugar 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon 2 tablespoons butter, softened Directions: Preheat oven to 350°F 1. In a bowl, combine first four ingredients. Combine flour and baking powder; add to egg mixture and blend well. 2. Pour into a greased 13-in. x 9-in. x 2-in. baking pan. Combine pie fillings, lemon juice and vanilla; spoon over batter. 3. For topping, combine all ingredients; sprinkle over filling. Bake at 350 degrees F for 40-45 minutes or until bubbly and cake tests done. |

To continue the agricultural thread of the 2nd post...Ive attempted to grow for the 1st time(obv not me,ive reached the limits of organic growth )several things. Beetroot has gone very well.My mother-in-law has turned the raw produce into beautiful boiled delight,im halfway through the crop in various uses,beetroot sandwiches(a fav since childhood)have been delicious and has also added to the chicken Salads we've been consuming in the annually weekly heatwave Spring Onions are a week or two away but look promising.As do the Cauliflower,which Im looking forward to greatly served simply with a home made cheese sauce The Radish have been disappointing,may have left them too long,the 1st crop were great,peppery and refreshing to the palette but lately strange tasting and inedible Will not attempt these again !On further reflection,the desire to grow vegetables is indicative of my desire to escape the processed,sytstematic offering of global supermarket chains and ,by association,the restraints of lifestyle imposed by such wielders of consumerist power. more later btw,noahs recipe souns delicious |

ah, an aggricultural thread, wish it was here a few months ago... I purchased a baboo tree end of last year, a beautiful black bamboo. it was still small, but the sales man assured me it would grow like mad this summer. I descided to help it grow even faster, a few months ago by furtelizing it. Knowing im a city girl,living in the centre of a town, i thought it wise to surch the net for the best furteliser for a black bamboo. Google awnsered, cow doo... So, off i went to the garden shop. I descided to buy dryed lumps, they seemed perfect, no smell, no fuss. There was an offer on a 5kg packadge so the choice was easily made. When i got home i found 2 bags of 2,5kg each, the pot was huge, more than a meter in diametre, so i descided to dump the entire bag in the pot, leaving me with the other 2,5kg bag...I furst thought to put it in the basement, but i knew if id put it there it would never come out again, everything i put there seems to never come out...I have more plants on my balkony so i descided to use my last bag furtelizing those. The first time i watered the plants, all was still good. The second time i watered the plants, a weird odor filled the balkony. The third time i watered them...it smelled like a hurd of cows past my appartment!!! The dryed lumps had changed texture, it had taken its original chape! i have at least 10kg worth of fresh, moist cow doo on my balkony atm and the air is filled with a huge chit smell n thousands of chit flies!!  I try to keep the flies out with those sticky trap ribbon thigies, i have 8 lined up hanging on my kitchen door, they work great, they even catch humans, but ive been able to break free every time. im deffo no farm girl
