Guest guest Posted March 7, 2009 Report Share Posted March 7, 2009 Peaches in a Summer Salsa SaladIf you like these ingredients on their own I think you'll really love this salad:2 peaches1 large tomato1-2 red onionscilantrodressing:1 lemonolive oilblack pepperEqual parts of chunked tomato and peach. I like large pieces but you may like smaller. The fruits/veggies are larger in the States than in Switzerland but here I used one large tomato (off the vine), two peaches and one or two very small red onions then just add a little chopped cilantro (just enough to see a small piece on each chunked tomato/ peach). I usually just tear up the cilantro instead of cutting it because it's quick and easy. For a little extra flavor you can add to taste a small amount of olive oil, black pepper and fresh squeezed lemon. No cooking needed - nice in the heat of the summer here. I actually don't have the exact recipe but it's one of those dishes that I don't think you really NEED the recipe for. I imagine you could put in more peaches if you prefer peaches or less onion if you don't like as much onion. ) Angie's catzpawz@... Coconut Yogurt Recipe (1st draft) 1.5 cups unsweetened shredded coconut See the at the bottom of this link SCD™Stores: http://scdiet.net/ to get the legal coconut from Lucy 3 cups water 2 tbsp honey (optional) starter gelatin (optional)Simmer coconut, water and honey for 5-15 minutes. Remove from heat, cool for ~ 5-15 minutes. Place in blender/food processor and carefully blend the mixture for 10-30 seconds (don't burn yourself!) Strain coconut milk through a coarse (large)hole mesh strainer/sieve. Next, run coconut milk through a fine (small) hole mesh strainer/ sieve and ensure that all pulp has been removed. If necessary, run coconut milk through the strainer lined with a coffee filter or cheesecloth. Put coconut milk in a pot and heat to ~180°F. Remove from heat and cool to about room temperature 20–25 °C (64-77 °F). When cool add starter and place coconut milk in yogurt maker. When the temperature reaches 100°F, begin timing the yogurt for 8-12 hours. Five minutes before removing the yogurt from the yogurt maker I dissolve one packet of gelatin in ~1/8 cup water (or reserved coconut milk) and then mix this gently into the coconut yogurt. Chill approximately 8 hours.Notes: Amount of yogurt starter. For GiProstart: ~1/8 tsp for 1 quart/1 litre of coconut milkFor Lyosan Yogourmet: 1 x5 g packet for 1 quart/1 litre coconut milkFor thicker coconut milk add extra coconut per amount water (eg. 2 cups coconut to 3 cups water)I let the coconut yogurt ferment about 10 hours. It does not need to ferment for 24 hours since there is no lactose. If you use extra honey you may be able to let it go a little longer but when I let it run longer than 12 hours I didn't see any noticeable change in the acidity level so I stick with 2-3 tbsp of honey for ~ 2 cups of coconut milk. After the first straining I add fresh water to the coconut pulp, simmer for 5 minutes then strain this second batch through the strainers. It is thinner than the first batch, so I don't use it for coconut yogurt but like to use it when making chai tea. The coconut pulp is then discarded ( I compost it).Sheila Trenholm sheilat@... Make Your Own Iron Supplements From Raw Live – 2 Basic Methods1. Freeze liver for 14 days in large chunks. (Fourteen days will ensure the elimination of pathogens and parasites.) You can then grate the liver on the small holes of a grater and add it to unpasteurized tomato juice. A teaspoon or two of grated raw liver can be added to baby's egg yolk, or even to mashed vegetables.2. Turn liver into pills! Cut fresh liver into pea-sized pieces and freeze for 14 days. Swallow like vitamin pills. For both methods, the liver should be of the highest quality available, and organic or certified organic, and very fresh. You can also soak liver chunks in lemon juice before freezing to reduce the strong flavor.Raw Liver Pill DoseFor those who do not like to eat liver twice a week, take the equivalent of 4 ounces of one of the above twice a week. For anemia take the equivalent of 1/2 pound of frozen or grated raw liver daily. If you cannot stomach that much liver, it will take longer to increase your iron levels. Whitmore chris.whitmore1@... Applesause- peel, core and chop a bunch of apples- add some water, say 3/4 cup per 4 apples - some honey if you like- 1/2 tsp cinnamon per 4 apples- cover and simmer for 20 minutes- mashHomemade is so much better.
