Once steeped, this vinegar is supposed to “keep for several months.
(Garnishes and other solids left in the jar, however, may discolor or
break down.)”

Rosemary Garlic Red-Wine Vinegar

1 cup fresh rosemary leaves plus long sprigs for garnish, rinsed
and drained well
8 large garlic cloves, halved
2 cups red-wine vinegar
In a very clean 1-qt glass jar combine the rosemary leaves,
the garlic, and the vinegar and let the mixture steep, covered
with the lid, in a cool dark place for at lease 4 days and up to
2 weeks, depending on the strength desired. Strain the vinegar
through a fine sieve into a glass pitcher, reserving the garlic
and discarding the rosemary leaves, and pour it into 2 very clean
1/2 pint glass jars. Add a rosemary sprig and some of the
reserved garlic to each jar and seal the jars with the lids.

3 tb Unsweetened cocoa powder 2 lg Eggs
1/4 c Vegetable oil 1 c Whole-wheat flour
2 Very ripe bananas 1/2 c Chopped nuts
1/2 c Sugar

Preheat oven to 350 F.

Combine cocoa, oil and bananas in a food processor or blender. Puree
until smooth. Combine sugar, eggs, flour and banana mixture in a
mixing bowl. Beat until blended, then stir in the nuts.

Pour the batter into a lightly oiled 9 x 13 inch baking pan and bake
for 15-20 minutes or until done. Toothpick inserted into center
should come out clean. (My suggestion – line baking pan with waxed
paper and spray with non-stick vegetable spray.) Cut into 2 1/4 inch
squares when cool.

2 c Nam sup (stock)
1 c Shrimp (about 10
-to the pound size)
1 c Cooked rice
1/2 c Kheun chai (chinese
-celery-celeriac), chopped
2 tb Nam pla (fish sauce)
1 tb Kratiem (garlic), crushed
1 ts Si-iew khao
-(light soy sauce)
1/2 ts Prikthai (black pepper),
-freshly ground
Bai chi (coriander/
-cilantro leaves),
-to garnish

(shrimp and rice soup) This is the answer to the question “if Thais eat so
much hot and spicy food, what do they eat for breakfast?” (but they also
eat som tam and curries…)

khao tam is a fairly bland and innocuous soup, that is always considered a
meal in itself (never served with other foods). Whilst it can be made with
almost any meat, it is most commonly made with seafood combinations, or
just plain khao tam.

Method Saute the garlic and reserve as a garnish.

In a saucepan, boil the stock, and add the celery, soy sauce, pepper and
rice, and bring back to a boil.

Add the shrimp and cook until it turns pink.

Serve immediately, garnished with the sauteed garlic and coriander leaves.

I tossed all the fruits and vegies together. Squeezed the orange over
and added the spices. Taste here. If it doesn’t have enough flavor,
add the vinegar. I however went overboard on the vinegar and had to add
the honey to compensate. I let it marinate overnight in the frig.

chicken sausage for the chicken.
