Reduce heat and simmer, partially covered, until pork is very tender, 1 to 1 1/2 hours. Cool pork in liquid, uncovered, 15 minutes. Drain, then cut pork into 1/3-inch dice. Discard onion, garlic, and thyme. Make filling: Cook onion and garlic in oils in a 12-inch heavy skillet over moderately low heat, stirring, until softened, 5 to 8 minutes. Add tomatoes, thyme, bay leaves, cinnamon, allspice, cloves, nutmeg, 1 tablespoon vinegar, 1 1/2 teaspoons sugar, and 3/4 teaspoon salt and simmer, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until tomatoes have broken down and sauce is slightly thickened, 20 to 30 minutes. While tomatoes simmer, cut an X in bottom of peach, then immerse in boiling water until skin begins to loosen, 10 to 30 seconds. Transfer peach to a bowl of cold water to stop cooking, then peel, pit, and dice (1/3 inch). Discard bay leaves, thyme sprig, and cinnamon stick from tomato mixture, then add diced pork and remaining filling ingredients and simmer, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until fruit is softened but still intact, 8 to 10 minutes. Season with additional salt, sugar, and vinegar. Make sauce: Purée walnuts and almonds in a blender with milk, cheese, 1 tablespoon sugar, and 1/4 teaspoon salt until smooth and silky, about 2 minutes. (Sauce should thickly coat back of a large spoon. If sauce is too thin, add more almonds and puré. If too thick, add more milk.) Season with salt and sugar. Stuff and bake chiles: Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 350°F. Cut a lengthwise slit in each chile and carefully cut out seeds with kitchen shears, leaving stem intact. (For milder heat, carefully cut out ribs also.) Divide pork filling among chiles, then close, overlapping sides of openings slightly. Transfer, seam sides up, to a 13- by 9-inch shallow baking dish, then cover with foil and bake until just heated through, 15 to 25 minutes. Transfer chiles to plates, carefully turning them seam sides down. Pour about 1/3 cup walnut sauce over each chile, leaving some of chile visible, then sprinkle chiles with pomegranate seeds. Serve chiles warm or at room temperature. Join our community and receive 20% off everything on the site

Our version of Quiche Lorraine is just that: made with a creamy, cheesy, savory center and baked on a flaky, warm crust for a brunch recipe that’s filling. Savings on 2 ingredient(s) Enter Zip to change location: 98133 Go Ingredients Pastry 1 cup Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour 1/4 teaspoon salt 1/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon shortening 2 to 3 tablespoons cold water Filling 8 slices bacon, crisply cooked, crumbled (1/2 cup) 1 cup shredded Swiss or Cheddar cheese (4 oz) 1/3 cup finely chopped onion 4 large eggs 2 cups whipping cream or half-and-half 1/4 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon pepper 1/8 teaspoon ground red pepper (cayenne) Directions 1 In medium bowl, mix flour and salt. Cut in shortening, using pastry blender (or pulling 2 table knives through ingredients in opposite directions), until particles are size of small peas. Sprinkle with cold water, 1 tablespoon at a time, tossing with fork until all flour is moistened and pastry almost cleans side of bowl (1 to 2 teaspoons more water can be added if necessary). 2 Gather pastry into a ball. Shape into flattened round on lightly floured surface. Wrap in plastic wrap; refrigerate about 45 minutes or until dough is firm and cold, yet pliable. This allows the shortening to become slightly firm, which helps make the baked pastry more flaky. If refrigerated longer, let pastry soften slightly before rolling. 3 Heat oven to 425° F. With floured rolling pin, roll pastry into round 2 inches larger than upside-down 9-inch quiche dish or glass pie plate. Fold pastry into fourths; place in quiche dish. Unfold and ease into dish, pressing firmly against bottom and side. Trim overhanging edge of pastry 1 inch from rim of pie plate. Fold and roll pastry under, even with plate; flute as desired. 4 Carefully line pastry with a double thickness of foil, gently pressing foil to bottom and side of pastry. Let foil extend over edge to prevent excessive browning. Bake 10 minutes. Carefully remove foil and bake 2 to 4 minutes longer or until pastry just begins to brown and has become set. If crust bubbles, gently push bubbles down with back of spoon. 5 Reduce oven temperature to 325° F. Sprinkle bacon, cheese and onion in pie crust. In medium bowl, beat eggs slightly; beat in remaining filling ingredients. Pour into quiche dish. 6 Bake 45 to 50 minutes or until knife inserted in center comes out clean.

Chicken B'Steeya recipe Holiday food from Africa, B'stilla, a traditional Moroccan recipe

Chicken B'steeya  B'stilla, a traditional Moroccan recipe

INGREDIENTS

• As some of you already know I am living in a Rehab center. I have been here almost 30 days. Today I spent most of the day isolating though I have been very social here.  I read a book. I did get dressed and do my PT. I exercised some extra and drank a lot of water as I was retaining water this morning and gained 9 extra pounds. Before the day was out I had lost most of it.  I went out to eat yesterday and did not think about it much but it was a buffet and too much salt.  I love this recipe. It was given to me by my aide who is from Africa and they fix this on special occasions she tells me. I had my daughter make it for me and oh is it good. 
• 
  
• 1 whole roaster chicken, about 4 pounds, cut into 8 pieces
• Coarse salt
• 1 medium onion, finely chopped
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1/8 teaspoon crumbled saffron
• 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
• 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon, plus more for sprinkling
• 1 cup coarsely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
• 1/2 cup coarsely chopped fresh cilantro
• 1/4 cup unsalted butter, plus 1/2 cup melted (1 1/2 sticks total)
• 6 large eggs, lightly beaten
• 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
• Freshly ground pepper
• 1 3/4 cups blanched whole almonds, toasted and coarsely chopped
• 3 tablespoons confectioners' sugar, plus more for sprinkling
• 1/4 cup orange-flower water
• 1 package (17 ounces) store-bought phyllo dough

DIRECTIONS

1. Put chicken and 1/3 cup salt in a medium bowl; toss to coat. Refrigerate 1 hour. Rinse chicken with cold water; pat dry. Mix chicken, onion, garlic, saffron, ginger, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, 1/2 cup parsley, and 1/4 cup cilantro in a large bowl; cover, and refrigerate overnight.
2. Transfer chicken mixture to a medium-heavy pot. Add enough water to cover (about 4 cups). Bring to a boil; reduce heat to medium. Add 1/4 cup butter; cover, and simmer until chicken is falling off the bone, 1 to 1 1/2 hours, adding water to cover if necessary. Transfer chicken to a plate; let cool. Reserve poaching liquid. Remove meat from bones and shred; discard skin and bones. Set chicken aside.
3. Bring reserved poaching liquid to a boil over high heat; cook until reduced to 3/4 cup. Reduce heat to medium high. Slowly add eggs; whisk constantly until mixture is almost set, 4 to 6 minutes. Stir in remaining 1/2 cup parsley, 1/4 cup cilantro, and the lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper; set aside.
4. Stir together almonds, sugar, and remaining 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon in a small bowl; set aside.
5. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Brush a 13-inch paella or pizza pan with 2 tablespoons melted butter. Stir together remaining melted butter and the orange-flower water in small bowl. Assemble B'steeya: Brush a sheet of phyllo with butter mixture. Put in pan, leaving a 4-inch overhang. Repeat, adding and buttering 7 more sheets of phyllo, overlapping layers and fanning out around pan. (Keep unbuttered phyllo covered with plastic wrap and a damp kitchen towel.)
6. Arrange chicken mixture over dough. Pour in egg mixture. Top with 5 layers phyllo brushed with butter mixture. Sprinkle with almond mixture. Fold up edges of phyllo to enclose. Top with 5 layers phyllo brushed with butter mixture; tuck edges inside pan. Slightly crinkle 2 unbuttered phyllo over top. Bake until golden brown, 35 to 40 minutes. Sprinkle with sugar and cinnamon.

Chicken and Spaetzle or German herb Noodles

This is a soup my Grandma Schultz used to make on cold blizzard of a winter nights in North Dakota.  Well, things are blooming in Seattle now and everybody thinks it's Spring but the nights are still cold and a good bowl of soup with a great bread is always warming and welcome.  I make this in the crock pot sometimes and it is ready when I come through the door.  Just the smell will make you hungry. This is really good soup.

TOTAL TIME: Prep: 20 min. + cooling 

Cook: 2-1/2 hours + cooling

MAKES: 8-10 servings

Ingredients

1 broiler/fryer chicken (2 to 3 pounds), cut into pieces

2 tablespoons canola oil

8 cups chicken broth

2 bay leaves

1/2 teaspoon dried thyme

1/4 teaspoon pepper

1 cup sliced carrots

1 cup sliced celery

3/4 cup chopped onion

1 garlic clove, minced

2 cups sliced fresh mushrooms  I use assorted kinds so good in soup

SPAETZLE:

1-1/4 cups all-purpose flour

1/8 teaspoon baking powder

1/8 teaspoon salt

1 egg, lightly beaten

1/4 cup water

1/4 cup 2% milk

fresh dill to taste

or water cress can be used.

Directions

In a large soup pot, brown chicken pieces in oil. Add the broth, bay leaves, thyme and

 pepper. Bring to a boil; skim foam. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 45-60 minutes or until 

chicken is tender. Remove chicken and set aside until cool enough to handle. I always do this the night

 before and then refrigerate it and skim any fat in the morning. If I am really in a hurry I buy canned 

broth and buy a rotisserie chicken at the grocery. Then add frozen veggies it is fast and 

but not like grandma's.

Remove meat from bones; discard bones and skin and cut chicken into bite size pieces. Cool broth 

and skim off fat.

Return chicken to broth along with the carrots, celery, onion, garlic. Bring to a boil.

 Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 35 minutes. Add mushrooms and simmer 8-10 minutes longer

. Remove bay leaves.

In a small bowl, combine first three spaetzle ingredients. Stir in the egg, water and milk; blend well

. Drop batter by 1/2 teaspoonfuls into simmering soup. Cook for 10 minutes. 

Yield: 8-10 servings (2 1/2 quarts).

The use of Iron and Iron supplements, side effects, Sources of Iron in food and recipes containing iron

Iron is a mineral. I personally have an iron deficiency by researching on the internet I have found some solutions to  using iron.  I found a bunch of side effects of using iron,as well as separate disease caused by iron deficiency.  By doing this I was able to suggest to my doctor what tests to take.

 Most of the iron in the body is found in the hemoglobin of red blood cells and in the  hemoglobin  of muscle cells. Iron is needed for transporting oxygen and carbon dioxide. It also has other important roles in the body.

People take iron supplements for preventing and treating low levels of iron (iron deficiency) and the resulting iron deficiency anemia. In people with iron deficiency anemia, the red blood cells can't carry enough oxygen to the body because they don't have enough iron. People with this condition often feel very tired.

Iron is also used for improving athletic performance and treating attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and canker sores. Some people also use iron for Crohn's disease, depression, fatigue, and the inability to get pregnant.

Turkey chilli

• 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 1 pound turkey or lean ground beef (but not a combination)
• Salt and freshly ground pepper
• 1 large onion, chopped
• 1 tablespoon minced garlic
• 2 teaspoons chili powder
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano leaves or 1 tsp dried
• 2 cups chopped tomatoes (diced canned are fine; don't bother to drain)
• 1 or 2 fresh or dried hot chilies, seeded and minced
• 1 pound dried pinto or kidney beans, rinsed and picked over, and soaked, if you like
• 1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro leaves for garnish

1. Put the oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. When it's hot, add the ground meat and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Adjust the heat so it sizzles steadily, and cook, stirring occasionally to break it up, until the meat browns all over (5-10 minutes).

2. Add the onion, and cook, stirring once in a while, until it softens and turns golden (3-5 minutes). Add the garlic, chili powder, cumin, and oregano, and cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture becomes fragrant (another minute).

3. Add the tomatoes, chili, and beans to the pot, along with enough water to cover everything by 2-3 inches. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat so the mixture bubbles steadily, but not furiously, and cover. Cook, undisturbed, for 30 minutes. After that, stir the chili every 20 minutes or so and adjust the heat so it continues to bubble gently; add more water, 1/2 cup at a time, if the chili starts to stick to the bottom of the pot.

4. When the beans begin to soften (30-60 minutes, depending on the type of bean and whether or not you soaked them), sprinkle with salt and pepper. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally and adding water if the pot looks too dry, until the beans are quite tender but still intact--this will take about the same amount of time as it took for them to soften. When the beans are very tender, taste, adjust the seasoning, and serve, garnished with the cilantro.

Change It Up!

Chili with Canned Beans: Using canned beans instead of dried cuts the cooking time down to about 35 minutes: Drain and rinse about 4 cups, or 2 (15-ounce) cans, of canned beans; add them instead of the dried beans in Step 3.

Chili with All Sorts of Dried Beans: Try black beans, white beans, chickpeas, or lentils (lentils will be ready 30 minutes after you add them to the pot).
