I agree with you. I was pleasantly surprised that I liked many of the Jamaican dishes. I had one dish that looked like twigs were thrown in, but it all was very good. Goat meat was really good also, and I never would've tried it as a kid - just the thought of eating a goat. |

It was my first time eating goat. I thought it might be tough but it was very tender! I was hooked on the first bite! :-) |

One of the young ladies at the center is pregnant and she's been begging for fried pickles!! This is not a healthy recipe but at least it's homemade and even the ranch is better than pre-packaged. I made her a batch and she brought me a dozen of roses for a thank you! :-) http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/deep-fried-pickles-recipe.html |

I didnt even see this post, sweety...my apologies! ...it turned it rather unimpressive, to me, probably bcuz I substituted/used Olive Oil instead of butter (we don't use butter ) plus I couldn't find but a very small amount of shredded coconuts when I shopped.

Found this recipe online and plan to make several for my sisters when we get together for brunch next week! :-) Strawberry "Pop Tarts" Yields 9 Ingredients Pastry: 2 cups all-purpose flour 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, cold and cubed 1 egg 1 1/2-2 tablespoons milk 1 tablespoon sugar 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/2 cup jam or fruit preserves Glaze: 1 splash water 1 egg 1 cup powdered sugar 2 tablespoons heavy cream 1 tablespoon strawberry jam red food coloring (1-2 drops; use sparingly to make pink frosting) candy sprinkles/decorating sugar 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice Directions: In a medium bowl or food processor, sift together flour, sugar and salt. Use a pastry cutter or pulse to work in the cubed butter until you’ve got a crumbly, coarse mixture. Beat together milk and 1 egg in a small bowl, then pour it into flour mixture and mix until dough just begins to come together. Work dough with your hands until you’ve formed a ball of dough, turn it out onto a clean surface and divide it in half. Roll each half into a ball and place each half on a piece of plastic wrap. Flatten each ball into a disc and tightly wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour. (Or freeze for up to 3 months.) Preheat oven to 350º. Remove both dough discs and roll them each out to a 9x12-inch rectangle on a lightly floured surface. Use a ruler (or eyeball it) and pizza cutter or knife to cut out 9, equal rectangles from each disc, and transfer to a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Spoon 1-1 1/2 tablespoons jam onto the center of half the rectangles and top with remaining pieces of dough. Seal or crimp edges of pop tarts with a fork. Then pierce the tops of all tarts with a fork to allow steam to escape while baking. In a small bowl, beat together remaining egg with a splash of water and brush the tops of pop tarts so they have a nice glaze once they bake. Place in oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown. While pop tarts are in the oven, combine powdered sugar, cream, lemon juice and strawberry jam in a medium bowl. Stir in food coloring until desired color is achieved and set aside. Remove pop tarts from oven and let cool 10-15 minutes. Then drizzle glaze over the tops of them and sprinkle with decorating sugar or jimmies. Serve immediately or let cool completely. Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days. |
