Spanish Food: How To Make The Perfect Paella
by: Linda Plummer
Looking for a traditional Spanish recipe? Without doubt, the
best-known is going to be the prodigious paella ... that tasty,
adaptable, gregarious dish famed throughout
And, what an impressive choice of recipes exist for a pleasurable
paella: seafood, chicken, rabbit ... or a mixture of all three!
Perhaps you are non-meat eating ... well, just opt for one of the
several vegetarian paella recipes. Bit of a health fanatic?
Then substitute white rice for whole-grain rice or wild rice.
Got a large family and not much money to feed them on? Use
plenty of rice and imagination along with a tasty stock, plus
whatever you can find in the cupboard! I have certainly enjoyed
many paellas where there have been more bones/shells than meat/
seafood! And, very tasty they have been too, the richness of
the company more than compensating for any paucity in the
ingrediants.
So ... how do you go about making the perfect paella? First of
all, you need to choose your rice. The short-grained rice from
making paellas. However, the "bomba" rice grown in the
neighboring region of
short-grained, it has the ability to absorb the stock whilst
remaining firm.
Another "must" is to use saffron ("azafrán") to create the gentle,
yellow color for which this delectable dish is renowned. Yes, it
is possible to buy cheaper, artificial colorings but ... go for
the traditional - it will bestow a wonderful aroma and unique
flavor.
Many Spaniards swear a perfect paella can only be achieved when
using a tasty, home-made stock. Whatever you decide, allow at
least double the amount of liquid to rice. If, during cooking,
the dish becomes a little dry, just add a dash more water or
stock.
Another tip I have been told, on more than one occasion, is to
gently fry the rice for a few minutes before adding the stock,
ensuring that it is well-coated in oil. I think all Spaniards
would agree that, once cooked, it is best to leave your paella to
stand for a good five minutes before serving.
Perhaps the most important ingrediant for making that perfect
paella, is to use lashings and lashings of love whilst preparing
it - for surely, that is something we can all afford - and to
enjoy to the full the marvellous company of those who will share
it with you.
I shall now have to choose a paella recipe to offer you as an
example! I think I will opt for a seafood paella, typical of the
region of
hearty four servings. If you are not a hefty eater, or on a diet,
then reduce the amount of rice/stock slightly.
Paella Valenciana - Paella From Valencia
Ingrediants:
- 4 cups rice.
- 8 cups fish stock.
- 8 king-sized prawns/langoustines.
- 8 mussels.
- 200 gr shrimps.
- 200 gr peas (fresh or frozen).
- 2 tomatoes, skinned and chopped.
- 2 cloves garlic, thinly sliced.
- 3 strands saffron, crumbled.
- Olive oil for frying.
Method:
1. Sauté garlic in a paella-type pan.
2. Add tomatoes, peas, shrimps and saffron.
3. Cook for a few minutes.
4. Add rice and stock.
5. Simmer for approximately 20 minutes.
6. Decorate with prawns and mussels.
7. Cover paella with a lid.
8. Poach the seafood for a few minutes.
9. Decorate paella with lemon quarters.
10. Enjoy!

Frugal Cooking With Herbs
by: Cyndi Roberts
Herbs are fun to grow and easy to use. Herbs can
be a frugal cook's best friend because they can
enhance even the simplest fare making it seem
grand! Herbs are easy to grow--you can even grow
them on your kitchen windowsill.
The addition of herbs can change completely the
flavor of foods-from homemade breads to soups,
stews and vegetables. And they can add variety
and excitement to your diet.
A beginner should use herbs with care, adding a little
at a time and adjusting to your own taste. Each herb
has its own individual flavor and certain herbs also
have well-known associations with particular foods.
Basil is often paired with tomatoes, rosemary with
lamb, chives with cream cheese and cottage cheese.
Fresh herbs are wonderful as garnishes. Herb vinegars
can be used in salad dressings, soups and marinades.
You can also add fresh herbs to mayonnaise or butter
for a different flavor.
Fresh herbs will keep in the refrigerator for several
days. A good way to freeze herbs such as basil, oregano,
and dill is to chop, place in ice cube trays, cover with
water and freeze. Then just add to stews and sauces
when needed.
Some easy herbs to grow are lemon balm, rosemary, oregano,
dill, basil, parsley, peppermint, lavendar, sage.
Of course, you can buy herbs to cook with at the
supermarket, also.
Here are some simple recipes to get you started
using herbs in your cooking.
Lemon Chive Dressing
1 clove garlic
dash of salt
Rind of 1 lemon, finely grated
and the juice
1 1/2 teaspoons mustard
4 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons chopped chives
Put the garlic and salt in a bowl and crush together.
Add lemon rind, juice and mustard, stirring until
smooth. Slowly whisk in the oil. Fold in chives
and season with black pepper, if desired.
This is a good dressing to pour over warm, cooked new
potatoes. Add finely chopped green onions.
Mint Iced Tea
spearmint, peppermint, applemint will do). Place in
blender with 4 cups water and liquefy. Let it set for
about 1/2 hour and strain.
Herb Butter
1/2 cup butter
4 tablespoons fresh herbs or 2 teaspoons of dried herbs
Soften the butter to room temperature. Finely chop the
fresh herbs. Blend herbs and butter well. Store in
fridge.
Use to season vegetables, as a spread on bread, biscuits
or baked potatoes. Anywhere you normally use butter.
Here's something different: not really cooking, but a
recipe that you might find fun!
Basil-Lemon Facial Mask
Pulverize a handful of fresh basil leaves. Peel 1/2 of
an avocado and mash. Add avocado to basil in blender,
along with 1 teaspoon lemon juice and 1 teaspoon honey.
Mix until smooth.
Apply to clean face and leave as long as desired. Rinse
off with lukewarm water.
In short, you don't have to be an herb specialist to
learn to enjoy using herbs.

Coffee club membership is a joy for coffee lovers
by: Julie Carter
The coffee club concept is relatively new but is taking the world by storm. Reward yourself or your friends and relatives with coffee clubs by joining up and saving loads. Each month, you will get a shipment of coffee delivered direct to your door. This is a great way to taste new coffees, sample different varieties, find a brew that you really like and ultimately avoid a trip to the store to buy your favorite coffee. Automatic shipment is very convenient, especially if you like your coffee first thing in the morning because this means you will never run out when you need it the most.
Clubs are now springing up all over
Some clubs even offer newsletter subscriptions with informative articles about the month's featured coffee as well as coffee recipes and helpful hints about coffee making and removing coffee stains. When you join one of these clubs, you are also usually entitled to a members-only discount. If the company has a sale or special offering, generally the club members will be the first to hear about it through the newsletter. In addition to coffee, gourmet coffee clubs sometimes include extras like coffee mugs or books with coffee recipes in them.
With clubs, the membership terms are usually fairy flexible. You can usually choose the length of your club membership, from three to twelve months, whether you want whole beans or ground, the type of grind you would like and finally, you can choose flavored or regular, caffeinated or decaf coffee. The choices are endless and are designed to cater specifically for each person’s tastes. This is more work for the club but at the end of the day is done to induce you to buy more coffee.
An idea for a coffee gift is a coffee club membership. This is where you purchase a subscription for a coffee of the month club, and your recipient gets coffee delivered to them each month. Gourmet coffee clubs make a great gift idea for holidays, birthdays, or as thank you gifts. you are looking for a unique business gift, think about giving a coffee club subscription. Most people appreciate a good cup of coffee; it is enjoyed around the world. This is one gift that transcends borders. Your recipient will like the convenience of having the coffee delivered on schedule, without having to reorder all the time. If you give a club subscription as a gift, you will be able to send a gift card or letter to your recipient, notifying them of your gift membership.

Because . . . that’s what a homemade strawberry shake tastes like – pure heaven. You don’t have to wait till summer to enjoy a rich, delicious strawberry milkshake. If you’re willing to substitute frozen strawberries, then you can have this wonderfully refreshing drink any time of year.

Best Recipes: Classic Vanilla Milkshake
by: Donna Monday
Sometimes plain vanilla is best.
A lot of people will skip over the plain vanilla ice cream or the plain vanilla milkshake in favor of the fancier versions because vanilla just seems so, well . . . plain.
But plain is just fine if you’re in the mood for a simple dessert milkshake that hits the right spot. Just think, with plain vanilla you don’t have to think about adding anything else except the basic ingredients that everyone has in the cupboard.
Vanilla tastes and smells so good that you can find it’s sweet scent used in many perfumes and candles. There’s also something comforting about vanilla. Vanilla is like an old friend – you always know it’ll be around.
So take a break from those fancier recipes and delight in the simple pleasures of an ice cold, old fashioned vanilla milkshake. It’s pure, sweet satisfaction.
Classic Vanilla Milkshake
3 scoops vanilla ice cream
1-1/2 cups milk
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
2 teaspoons sugar
Directions
In a blender combine ice cream, milk, vanilla and sugar.
Blend until smooth.

It taste just like chicken.
That line’s become a part of our culture to describe meat dishes that aren’t made with chicken, but none the less, taste almost exactly like our favorite poultry meat. And why do we think that many of these alternative white meats (including tofu substitutes) taste like chicken?
Because most of us have grown up eating chicken in every conceivable way, shape, and form. Chicken is by far the most versatile meat used in recipes and will continue to be so as long as it remains relatively inexpensive and easy to prepare.
To give you an idea of the vast variety of chicken recipes, I’ve dug up a few favorites that folks are often looking for online:
Garlic lemon chicken, beer can chicken, chicken marsala, chicken and dumplings, baked chicken, chicken parmesan, chicken pot pie, bourbon chicken, chicken noodle soup, chicken salad, chicken and dumplings, chicken breast, white chicken chili, fried chicken, chicken tortilla soup, chicken cordon blue or bleu, chicken parmesan, chicken divan, chicken wings, chicken cacciatore, chicken enchiladas, orange chicken, chicken casserole, chicken stew, curry chicken, fried chicken.
And that’s just a small sample of the wonderful chicken recipes you can find online. It doesn’t matter if you’re not the greatest cook in the world or if you love to cook but short on time. You’re bound to find several chicken recipes that fit your budget, schedule, and level of cooking expertise.
You can bet your sweet chicken noodle that somewhere right now there’s a cook putting a chicken in a pot, oven, pan, or casserole dish getting ready to create another delicious chicken inspired dish.

Making Hamburger Recipes is Easy and Fun
by: Donna Monday
When I was a kid Wimpy from the old Popeye cartoon show was one of my favorite characters because he expressed a deep love and obsession with hamburgers on a bun. Wimpy was always looking for hamburgers and wasn’t happy unless his plate was piled high with steaming hot hamburgers.
Even though I could only eat one, I easily related to Wimpy’s love of hamburgers, especially cheeseburgers. As I grew up I discovered how easy it was to make a meal out of cooking hamburgers and putting them on a hamburger bun. Add a little ketchup or hamburger sauce and you’ve got yourself a quick lunch or dinner.
While I’m not sure about the real history of the hamburger (a couple of towns claim to be the home of the original burger) I do know that they’re popularity spread quickly. Online you can find recipes for hamburger pattie or how to make foil hamburgers over fire. But some of the best hamburger recipes don’t even involve a bun.
Online you can find recipes for hamburger stew, hamburger goulash, hamburger casserole, hamburger jerky, hamburger chowder, hamburger gravy, hamburger steak, hamburger with stuffed green peppers, hamburger macaroni soup, hamburger stroganoff, hamburger pie, and other easy hamburger recipes with egg, bread crumbs and onion.
There’s even secret fast food hamburger recipes that expose how to make the popular McDonald’s hamburger, Wendy’s hamburger, and

I’m sure you’ve had jello for dessert at some point in your life. Or, a fruit laden jello mold salad made with lime, orange, or strawberry jello with bits of fruit inside. Those salads make a delicious and beautiful presentation at luncheons.
Jello is so popular that people have invented many ways to utilize this sweet, fun, colorful food. So wouldn’t you know it that someone came along and created the jello milkshake. Just when you thought jello couldn’t be any more entertaining, now you can mix it with milk and ice cream.
The jello milkshake is so easy to make, even a child could do it (Please remember to supervise a child using a blender). The ingredients are so simple – milk, ice cream, and your favorite flavor of jello. The fun part is selecting what color and flavor of gelatin to use for your jello milkshake – orange, pink, purple, green?
Whatever flavor of jello you pick, I’m sure you’ll have a great time making and drinking your jello milkshake.

Candy canes can be crushed or used whole in holiday arts and crafts projects. How about adding candy canes to your homemade holiday gift baskets?
Peppermint candy canes are usually red and white, but they can also be found in fun colors like red, green and white, and also flavors like orange, cherry, and even chocolate!
You can find candy canes sprinkled inside of cookies and other delicious Christmas recipes.
Candy canes make great ornaments. You can buy real ones and hang them around the house or the plastic version works fine too.
To create a festive mood on the holiday dinner table you can put out a couple of candy cane candles.
Got a wreath? Stick a few candy canes inside and watch your guests smile. Candy canes always seem to make people happy.
Mini candy canes can be crafted into a candy cane tree and used as a centerpiece. Another fun idea is to make your own candy cane pins and hand them out as gifts or stocking stuffers.
Some people even put large candy cane decorations outside of their houses. Some of these giant candy cane replicas even light up inside!
No matter how you enjoy candy canes, they are sure to make your holiday celebrations much more delightful.

It’s not difficult to make your own personalized gift baskets. Most gift baskets involve a theme.

** Italian Gift Basket – include a variety of dried gourmet pasta like spinach, whole wheat, or dried tomato, two jars of pasta sauce, fresh mozzarella and parmesan cheese, garlic bread and fancy olive oil.
** Tea Lovers Gift Basket – you can include several varieties of black tea, green tea and herbal teas, a mug and homemade butter cookies adds a nice finishing touch.
** Champagne or Beer Gift Basket - the champagne basket would be elegant: includes a bottle of fine champagne, cheese and crackers, and fancy chocolates; the beer basket includes several domestic and/or imported beers, lagers, or ales, chips, pretzels and nuts.

Pan-Frying, Shallow-Frying, Sautéing
by: ARA
(ARA) - Jamie Oliver, Food Network star and best-selling cookbook author, is on a mission -- to make cooking at home easy and fun for everyone. He bills his new book, “Jamie’s Kitchen,” as a “cooking course for everyone.” Armed with this cookbook, fresh ingredients and a good set of kitchen tools, there is no technique a new cook can’t master.
Jamie Oliver offers the following tips for one of his favorite and most healthy cooking techniques, sautéing, or what he calls “pan-frying:”
1. Get Yourself a Pan and Make It Hot
“The single biggest mistake that new cooks make is cooking in a cold pan,” Oliver explains. “You must heat the pan before you start cooking. If you start to cook before the pan is hot enough, the food steams instead of caramelizing and frying. You want the heat of the pan to sear in the juices, making the food taste better.”
2. Size Matters
“When it comes to frying pans, size matters! If your pan is too small, the ingredients will crowd each other, and they’ll end up steaming instead of sautéing. But if the pan’s too big, all those great pan juices will end up evaporating too fast and you may burn what you’re cooking,” Oliver points out. “So be sure to use the right size pan for the amount of ingredients you have. Also, look for some key features in the pan such as a good heavy bottom that distributes the heat evenly, shallow with rounded sides to make food easy to toss, and an easy-to-hold handle -- long enough to be comfortable to grasp, not slippery, and cool to the touch even when the pan is hot.”
3. Want Less Fat? Use Nonstick Pans
“Using nonstick pans lets you use less oil or butter, which means healthy cooking. To get great flavor, what you really need is a good sear. And a good sear doesn’t necessarily require lots of fat in the pan,” notes Oliver. “When you do this properly, not only do you end up with glorious, flavorful food, but you also seal the juices and the nutrients right in with the flavor and you’re cooking healthy food as well.”
Oliver has just worked with T-FAL to design his own line of stainless steel cookware, the Jamie Oliver Professional Series. The cookware comes with either pure stainless or nonstick coated sauté pans.“My wife loves my new T-FAL stainless steel nonstick pans because they’re easy to clean and the cool little red Thermo-Spot lets her know when it’s ready to go. Her cooking has already improved,” he says.
4. Your Mum was Right! The Gear’s the Thing
“You don’t have to go crazy buying equipment, all you need to cook well is a good set of pots and pans (I’m partial to my own!), a couple of good knives, including an 8-inch chopper, a heavy mortar and pestle, a set of tongs and a speed peeler,” says Oliver.
5. So What’s for Dinner?
“This is the fun part -- planning what goes into the pan. Think seasonally and try to shop for organic products if you can when you’re at the market,” Oliver urges. “Be intuitive; pan-frying is a fast cooking method, so you want things that are thinly sliced and cook quickly (unless you are finishing in the oven.) You can also score thicker cuts of meat and fish to speed up the cooking time and add more surface area to the food. But what gets me going? Chicken marinated in some fresh herbs and garlic that you’ve pounded in a mortar and pestle. Steaks that have been liberally seasoned with salt and freshly cracked pepper. Or this fantastic salmon dish that I am including a recipe for below. “Go ahead guys. Get stuck in!”
Jamie Oliver’s Pan Roast Salmon with Green and White Asparagus, Rosemary, Wrapped in Bundles with Pancetta and Red and Yellow Cherry Tomatoes
“The lovely thing about this recipe is that everything in the pan takes the same time to cook,” Oliver comments. “Try to get the salmon cut no more than an inch thick or it might need a little longer.”
Serves 2
16 spears of asparagus - green or white or a mixture of both
2 sprigs of fresh rosemary
6 slices of pancetta
2 thin salmon fillets, weighing around 7 ounces each
sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
olive oil
a handful of red and yellow cherry tomatoes
a small handful of Kalamata olives
1/2 a lemon
Preheat your nonstick T-FAL frying pan until the Thermo-Spot turns solid red.
Snap the woody bottoms off the asparagus spears and divide the tops into 2 bunches. Add a sprig of rosemary and wrap each bunch up in 3 slices of pancetta to form a neat bundle.
Season the salmon steaks with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper and drizzle with a splash of olive oil. Place the salmon in the hot pan with the cherry tomatoes, the olives and the two bundles of asparagus and fry on each side, turning the asparagus over in the pan from time to time so that the pancetta and salmon brown evenly.
By the time the salmon's cooked, the pancetta should be lovely and crisp, the asparagus just cooked and the cherry tomatoes softened and bursting with sweet sticky juices. Squeeze the 1/2 lemon over the whole dish to finish off, and tuck in! Courtesy of ARA Content

Gourmet Cooking Made Easy: Holiday Party Ideas
by: ARA
(ARA) - More entertaining takes place during the holidays than all the rest of the year put together। Relatives come to visit, friends and neighbors drop by unexpectedly -- this time of year you have to be prepared for a party on short notice.
But with all the other things going on during the season, it’s hard to find the time to cook something nice for your guests। How can you put together a gourmet menu at the last minute?
“You don’t have to be a gourmet chef to cook like one,” says Jill Blashack, president and CEO of Tastefully Simple, an easy-to-prepare gourmet foods company। “I don’t have time to cook, and many other people are in the same position.”
The following are some tips from the experts at Tastefully Simple on how to be prepared at short notice for any kind of gathering this season:
* Archive good recipes। From time to time you run across a recipe that would be great for entertaining: a quick and easy soup, an interesting hors d’oeuvre, a good mulled cider mixture. Keep an active file of the ones you want to try so they are ready for you when you need them. This way you won’t have to scramble when you need to find something to make at the last minute.
* Keep important staples on hand at all times। There are certain items that your pantry shouldn’t be without during the holidays: a variety of crackers, chips and mixed nuts; cream cheese for a cheese ball; sour cream for an easy dip; some fresh spices such as ginger, cinnamon and cloves for mulling and condiments such as mayonnaise, mustard, preserves and chutney. It’s also a good idea to have a selection of beer, wine and soft drinks available.
* Stock some items that can be ready to serve quickly। Even if you don’t like to cook, you’ll be able to whip together a menu that will impress your friends and relatives with the help of a few Tastefully Simple products. Each one is either ready to serve, or can be prepared by adding just one or two additional ingredients.
Ensure your gathering will be a success with these simple, savory dips: Tastefully Simple Spinach & Herb Mix, Garlic Garlic and Bacon Bacon Mixes
1 1/2 cups sour cream
1 1/2 cups mayonnaise
3 large red or green bell peppers
Tastefully Simple Bountiful Beer Bread Mix
12 ounce beer (or any carbonated beverage)
3 tablespoons butter, melted
Prepare all three dip mixes with sour cream and mayonnaise as directed on packaging; chill in separate bowls for 2 hours। Prepare Bountiful Beer Bread Mix with beer and butter as directed on package; cool and cube. Carefully slice tops off bell peppers, seed, core; reserve lids. Fill each pepper with one of the prepared dips. Place filled peppers next to lids on lettuce-leaf-lined plate; serve alongside basket of Bountiful Beer Bread cubes for dipping. Makes 3 cups dip.
