I thought of you Plus 1 when I read this article: The Virtues of Green Bell Peppers http://www.nytimes.com/2014/08/27/dining/the-virtues-of-green-bell-peppers.html?src=dayp&action=click&pgtype=Homepage&module=c-column-above-moth-fixed-region®ion=c-column-above-moth-fixed-region&WT.nav=c-column-above-moth-fixed-region

I found the recipe for Basque Piperade and it sounds delicious. I might eat it with fish. Let me know if you make this and what you and your family think of it? http://oneperfectbite.blogspot.com/2012/07/julia-childs-basque-piperade.html#.U_3zWqOaxIA Ingredients: 6 medium tomatoes or 1 (14.5-oz.) can diced tomatoes, drained 1 tablespoon + 2 teaspoons olive oil 4 ounces thinly sliced Bayonne ham or proscuitto, cut into 1/2-inch squares 2 medium yellow onions, halved and thinly sliced 2 medium garlic cloves, minced 2 tablespoons fresh Italian parsley, coarsely chopped 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves, coarsely chopped 1 medium dried bay leaf 2 medium red, yellow, or orange bell peppers, cleaned and sliced lengthwise into 1/4-inch strips 2 medium green bell peppers, cleaned and sliced lengthwise into 1/4-inch strips Kosher salt 2 teaspoons piment d’Espelette or hot Hungarian paprika Directions: 1) If using fresh tomatoes, bring a large saucepan of water to a boil over high heat. Prepare an ice water bath by filling a medium bowl halfway with ice and water. Using tip of a knife, remove stem and cut a shallow X-shape into bottom of each tomato. Place tomatoes in the boiling water and blanch until the skin just starts to pucker and loosen, about 10 seconds. Drain and immediately immerse tomatoes in ice water bath. Using a small knife, peel loosened skin and cut each tomato in half. With a small spoon, scrape out any seeds, then core and coarsely chop remaining flesh. Set aside. 2) Place a large Dutch oven or other heavy-bottomed pot with a tight-fitting lid over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of oil. When oil shimmers, add ham or proscuitto and cook, stirring occasionally, until it’s golden brown, about 8 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer to a plate and set aside. 3) Return pan to heat, add remaining 2 teaspoons oil, and, once heated, add onion and garlic. Cook, stirring rarely, until soft and beginning to color, about 8 minutes. Stir in herbs and pepper slices and season well with salt. Cover and cook, stirring rarely, until peppers are slightly softened, about 10 minutes. 4) Stir in diced tomatoes, browned ham, and piment d’Espelette or paprika and season well with salt. Cook uncovered until mixture melds and juices have slightly thickened, about 10 minutes. Remove bay leaf and serve. Yield: 4 to 6 servings. (I have NO IDEA what piment d’Espelette is! ) |

Well, isn't this disturbing? If I understand this correctly, scraps of meat (less expensive cuts) are glued together to make a whole cut of meat so we can be charged more for it? It's possibly unhealthy and it's robbing us financially. I'll ask my cooking instructors and the nutritionalist at the center. As for green bell peppers; I do like them! I plan to plant some in a garden next year! :-) |

I bet it only sounds gross because your two cliqmates just got FUBARB'd by Plus 1 in that religion thread...yepper...Plus 1 just opened a can of whipAZZ with a hurricane lid on it! So I guess your posse/cliq is about to stalk her around the website giving her the LadyBug and Caroline treatment, now. |

I am spreading the 11 lbs. out, over three (3) meals...yon 'springs like to eat their wings plainly-fried, southern style, and I cook them in coconut oil. I also give them Franks' RedHot Sauce & some Honey, on the side, in case they want to add flavor while eating |

Here you see the sad little black man lashing out in extremely infantile ways for no reason. Mental illness is real. Therapy can help. 1) no one got schooled about religion 2),what's that have to do with THIS post. 3) Your ass kissing for a cliqmate is astronomical Edited by negroplease, Aug 30 2014, 12:33 PM.

I said meat glue sounds gross in response to Moon Pie and somehow I'm stalking Plus1, when I have several posts in here already. She nor you are relevant enough. However, you are stalking me by responding to a post that had nothing to do with you because you don't like me. Pathetic Edited by negroplease, Aug 30 2014, 12:32 PM.
