It's probably too late to help you with tonight's dinner, but keep this in mind for next time. It's quite tasty and real easy. Spray a baking pan with Pam, or something similar, and place your pork chops or pork loins in it.. It's OK to have them touching. Prepare a box of Stove Top Stuffing and divide it among the chops. Spread it with fingers to cover each portion and then press it down. Cover with foil and bake at 350 for 45 minutes.. Remove foil and give it another 15 minutes.. YUM!! Good with smashed taters and corn... I found that the seasonings from the stuffing permeates the meat so no others are needed.

Rub the salt mixture into the meat. (we dip meat in vinegar and use the spices below) Leave the meat in a container for three days, not metal (we leave this in for about 12 hours) rubbing and turning it every day. Thread the meat onto hooks and hang it in a shaded breezy area to wind dry for several days. (or use one of those dehydrating things you have there) you can also try and dry it in a very cool oven (never tried this method) Although many recipes are available they are generally variations to the same theme. Popular Basic Ingredients: Salt (about 100 grams per 5 kg of meat) vinegar, pepper, coriander, cloves, and brown sugar. BILTONG In the pre-Huguenot days, before the french introduced separate courses, including hors d'oeuvres, this was one titbit served before the bredie was ready. This dish is a uniquely preserved, truly South African meat as it is raw from the beginning to end of its preparations. A mixture of salt for preserving, saltpetre for imparting colour and vinegars used together with spices for flovour and sugar which helps keep the meat moist and tender, is used. Bilton came into its own especially during the Anglo Boer War and remains a firm South African favourite. It is even found in baked goods, canapes and in quiches. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - * Exported from MasterCook * Biltong Tart Recipe By : S.A.

I was told in the English Bookstore that this book was a big seller to English speaking visitors to Spain. I bought 5 of them myself. FABADA -- ASTURIAN HAM AND BEANS "This is Spain's most famous bean dish, wonderfully flavoured, robust food from the northern regions. The fabes are big, fat white beans which cook up soft without disintegrating. Where unavailable, substitute the bigger dried lima beans or butter beans, or any large white bean. The morcilla and chorizo should be, if possible, from Asturias, where they are oak-smoked. Lacon is cured pork hand. If not available, use ham. Salt beef, salt-cured pig trotters and hard longaniza sausage are also used. 1/2 kg fabes (dried white beans) 400 g morcilla 400 g chorizo, smoked 400 g cured pork hand (shoulder) or ham 100 g streaky salt pork 1/2 tsp saffron 1 bay leaf The day before; put the beans to soak in plenty of water. Put the lacon or ham to soak overnight in hot water. blanch the salt pork in boiling water for five minutes. The following day: wash the sausages to eliminate excess smokiness. Drain the beans and put in an earthenware cassarole or large cooking pot and add water to a depth of two fingers. On a hot fire, bring to the boil and skim off the froth. Toast the saffron in a frying pan, crush it in a mortar and dissolve in a little water and add to the beans. Add the lacon, ham and salt pork to the cassarole, pushing them to the bottom of the beans. Cover and cook five minutes and skim again. Now add teh chorizo and morcilla, boil five minutes and skim. Add bay leaf, cover and cook very slowly, two or three hours. Add cold water occasionally just to keep teh beans barely covered so they don't dry out and split. Do not stire, but shake teh casserole from time to time. When beans are quite tender, let them sit for 20 minutes to blend and mellow the flavours. If too much liquid remains, puree some of the cooked beans in the blender and add them to the casserole to thicken the sauce. Serves 4" Note: I always bring beans to a boil, drain the water and cover with fresh water in a bean recipe.

( I can spell his last name, sorry) everyday at 2 p.m. Since I don't speak Spanish I would copy the ingredient list after watching him prepare his recipes and then translate them with my dictionary afterward. He made this thick potage one day and I have made it several times. You can use Italian frozen or fresh green beans if you don't have access to the judias verdes of Spain. Snap off end and peel sides along seams to remove strings of Judias Verdes. Put into a pot of boiling water with a little salt. Add some potatoes, a little olive oil and 2 peeled and sliced carrots. Cook about 20-25 minutes. Heat some olive oil in a pan, add some garlic, paprika and some flour to make a roux. Add to the vegetables and cook a couple of minutes. Believe it or not, it's really good and satisfying especially with some good crusty bread.

I can't wait to try it, except I'm a little bit worried about eating uncooked shellfish. Exactly how does the lime juice "cook" the scallops without any germ-killing heat? Something in the acidity of the lime juice? Just curious... -- Lisa Feazell "What's a Pooh?"

Whenever me or a member of my family needs something I always turn to this list. Since I haven't posted in a while I thought I would let everyone know what recipes we've tried lately (sorry I've forgotten to bring the posters name with me). We had the Chicken with Pesto last nite (topped with mozzarella) which was good and easy, we had a salmon recipe the day before, I believe it was the Mendocino (something like that) Fire dept's salmon recipe from Alaska, we use this all the time and always love it, a week or so ago we had a Chicken Fettucine recipe with sour cream and Parmesan cheese, this was great, I added mushrooms to it, and we did the California Skillet also. Tonight we're having a Bar-B-Q beef recipe that is served on rolls that is another favorite. I can post recipe names and the poster's name if someone needs them. As usual thanks everyone !!
