BORN THIS WAY TO DRINK CLEAN WATER – WATER ROYALTY RIGHTS FOR ALL CHILDREN OF THE WORLD

29 Dec

Born this way – I believe that all children of the world were born to have access to clean drinking water whenever they need it.

BTW: At the moment 1 billion people don’t. 2 million children die through not having access to clean drinking water each year.

Born this way to drink clean water – is these kids and their parents’ dream day. We can make it a dream day everyday for them. Let’s make it happen fun people, by clicking on UNICEF’S TAP PROJECT link. Let’s FLOW! Thanks groovy people.

AMERICA AND NEW ZEALAND BUTTER IS A MATCH MADE IN CULINARY HEAVEN

26 Oct

I can’t wait to see New Zealand butter on every supermarket refrigerator shelf here in the US and other yummy dairy products too from beautiful, clean and green New Zealand.

The possibilities that await in the wings of culinary delight for America’s taste buds are wild! Like, beyond out of this world delicious golden happiness. I swear.

There’s so much to look forward to in a new world of change in America. Here’s what New Zealand butter can look like, in case you’re an American reading and haven’t ever seen it before. Julia Child would have devoted a whole recipe book to this golden butter varietal, alone. Had she been alive, I have a culinary hunch, the Julia would have ensconced New Zealand butter into every home cook’s essential taste palate of finest recipe ingredients in the world. It’s really that good.

Yum! On fresh Iowa sweetcorn – a match made in cross-cultural taste buds heaven. So yummy. :)

The Chinese love it.

JULIA CHILD’S LEGENDARY COQ A VIN RECIPE

30 Aug

Julia Childs learned from the French how to cook in order to give America culinary delights they could cook with their own hands at home. As a leader of culinary arts and culture, this was her gift to her people. Here’s Julia Child‘s legendary coq a cin recipe for your entertainment and amusement.

Ingredients

1/2 cup lardons (4 ounces — 1-by-1/4-inch strips of blanched slab bacon or salt pork – see Special Note below)
2 1/2 to 3 pounds frying chicken parts
2 tbs. butter
1 tbs. olive oil (or good cooking oil)
Salt and freshly ground pepper
1 or 2 large cloves of garlic, pureed
1 imported bay leaf
1/4 tsp or so thyme
1 large ripe red unpeeled tomato, chopped, (or 1/3 cup canned Italian plum tomatoes)
3 cups young red wine (Zinfandel, Macon or Chianti type)
1 cup chicken stock (or more)
Beurre manie, for the sauce (1 1/2 tbs. each flour softened butter blended to a paste)
Fresh parsley sprigs (or chopped parsley)
1/3 cup good brandy (optional)
12 to 16 small brown-braised white onions
3 cups fresh mushrooms, trimmed, quartered and sautéed

Cooking Directions

Browning and simmering the chicken. Before browning the chicken, sauté the blanched bacon or salt pork and remove to a side dish, leaving the fat in the pan. Brown the chicken in the pork fat, adding a little olive oil, if needed. Flame the chicken with the brandy, if you wish — it does give its own special flavor, besides being fun to do. Then proceed to simmer the chicken in the wine, stock, tomatoes and seasoning as directed in the master recipe.

Finishing the dish. Strain, degrease, and finish the sauce, also as described. Strew the braised onions and sautéed mushrooms over the chicken, baste with the sauce, and simmer a few minutes, basting, to rewarm the chicken and to blend flavors.

Special note: To blanch bacon or salt pork: When you use bacon or salt pork in cooking, you want to remove its salt as well as its smoky flavor, which would permeate the rest of the food. To do so, you blanch it — meaning, you drop it into a saucepan of cold water to cover it by 2 to 3 inches, bring it to the boil, and simmer 5 to 8 minutes; the drain, refresh in cold water, and pat dry in paper towels.

Legendary chef Julia Child appeared on “Good Morning America” on May 11, 1995, with her Ragout of Chicken and Coq a Vin recipes.
