But you could chop them very finely, add some chicken stock or other tasty liquid, cover and steam for awhile, then cook the excess liquid off to get them to the point where you could eat them on bread. Seems like a lot of work, though!

Should say that the Fufu recipe was adapted from one told to me by Chef Lesa Sullivan plus multiple sources including one published in The New York Times that itself was adapted from Douglas Rodriguez's "Neuvo Latino."<br />The Lamb Mishmisheya recipe was adapted from one at food.com that reportedly was from Claudia Roden's "The Book of Jewish Food".

Do you think collard greens could be substituted in this recipe or a similar one? They do go well with bacon fat and pepper, mmm. <br /><br />I'd heard about eating dandelion greens from my mom, who lived through the Depression, and from storybooks asboshnesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07904062477713634910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-915683785377171152.post-67115812021310935242010-08-03T10:40:19.565-07:002010-08-03T10:40:19.565-07:00yumm!yumm!Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11080116696382644941noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-915683785377171152.post-43171353450649488232010-05-29T16:36:36.292-07:002010-05-29T16:36:36.292-07:00sounds yummysounds yummyBethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11080116696382644941noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-915683785377171152.post-81633357651265360472010-01-06T14:45:07.918-08:002010-01-06T14:45:07.918-08:00Sylvia!

Familiar, because my American host had instructed his cook; foreign because of the exotic surroundings and the noticeable absence of televised football! So glad you are settled; I worried about you and Samantha finding a landing strip.<br /><br />SuzanneAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08395405725188450526noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-915683785377171152.post-92124306063643816052009-09-22T10:28:54.240-07:002009-09-22T10:28:54.240-07:00Hi Sylvie,

You're on the web, but hidden among many journalist stories from days gone by. <br /><br />I just read through the blog (plus a couple of interesting old newspaper articles) to see how your new adventure in Paris is going. I hope you have found a good flat that accepts cats and have settled in to an adventure of P.A.H.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06980984031872519050noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-915683785377171152.post-59552048292323602992009-08-22T15:46:21.423-07:002009-08-22T15:46:21.423-07:00Thank you so much for your reassuring comment.
