4 racks of baby-back pork ribs
Dry Rub
3 tbsp curry powder
1 tbsp kosher salt
5 tbsp brown sugar
3 tbsp ground cumin
2 tbsp ground paprika
1 tbsp ground cayenne
2 tbsp ground Red Savina™ habanero (or more (never less!), to taste)
3 tbsp curry powder
2 tbsp allspice
2 tbsp powdered ginger
1 tbsp granulated garlic (not garlic salt)
2 tbsp freshly ground black pepper
Peel membrane from ribs and rinse meat. Mix dry ingredients together, and rub into both sides and ends of meat. Allow meat to marinate for at least 8 hours in a refrigerator. Smoke ribs, meat side up, until meat is tender and pulls off the bone, approximately 3 hours. I kept them warm, wrapped in foil, in a 200° F oven for about 3 hours.
Liberally (really liberally) coat the pork pieces with ancho powder, salt,
and black pepper. In a large skillet or wok, heat some olive oil (max
flame), and brown the meat, working in batches if necessary (don't
overcrowd the pan). Transfer to a large clay pot or Dutch oven, and preheat
oven to 325.
Using the same wok that you browned the pork in, heat up a little more oil
and add the onions and savinas. Consider wearing a gas mask. Saute till
soft, and add to the pork. Add the carrot juice and pomegranate
concentrate, stir,and cook, with the lid on, for 2 hours. Remove from oven,
mix thoroughly, and add the cherries. Cook for another hour, this time with
the lid off. Taste it. Need salt? More than likely, so add some more. Tart
enough? If not add more pomegranate. Add the green beans and mango, and
cook for another hour or so, no lid. Cook until liquid disappears and the
pork is falling-apart tender. You can finish it off on top of the stove, or
in the oven. Taste for salt!

INGREDIENTS
6 large firm ripe pears, peeled, cored and sliced
2 T Fresh lemon juice
3/4 cup sugar
2 eggs
3/4 cup milk
1/3 cup Molasses
3 T Grated fresh ginger
1/3 cup sugar
2 cup flour
3/4 t salt
1 1/2 t baking soda
3/4 t baking powder
1 T ground ginger
3/4 t nutmeg
1/2 t cinnamon
2 T butter (at room temperature)
DIRECTIONS
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9" x 13" baking pan.
Mix the pears with the lemon juice and sugar; place in the pan. Bake for
20 minutes.
For the topping: Using an electric mixer, beat the egg until foamy. Add
the milk, molasses, sugar and fresh grated ginger; beat until well
blended.
Sift together the flour, salt, soda, baking powder, dry ginger, nutmeg
and cinnamon. Add the butter and the dry ingredients to the liquid
ingredients and beat until well blended. Pour over the pears and bake for
an additional 30 minutes.
Serve warm, garnished with dollops of whipped cream, if desired.
Water (80 F/27 C): 1 cup
Oil: 3 TBL
Canned whole kernel corn: 1 cup
Jalapeno peppers, well drained: ˝ cup (I doubled the amount in the original recipe, and I replaced with regular habaneros for the habanero version, or a mix of yellow chilies, Japanese red chilies, and green Serrano chilis for the three-chili version)
Sugar: 2-1/2 TBL
Salt: 1-3/4 tsp
Bread flour: 4 cups
Corn meal: 2/3 cup
Fresh cilantro, chopped: 4 tsp
Active dry yeast: 2-1/4 tsp (or 2-3/4 tsp if you use rapid white bread course)
Follow the regular instructions for making white bread in your bread maker, but be sure to add the chilies and corn when the bread maker beeps during kneading (the time you usually add fruit or nuts). Use a spoon to help distribute the chilies within the bread during the kneading process, or they will all be pushed to the outside (crust) of the bread.
I’m sure some of you chilimongers can dream up peppier versions of this bread, so let me know if you come up with anything tasty!

Turkish delight
Makes 80 pieces.
4 cups sugar
4 1/2 cups water
2 teaspoons lemon juice
1 1/4 cups cornflour
1 teaspoon cream of tartar
1 1/2 tablespoons rosewater
2 tablespoons Red Savina powder
1 cup icing sugar
Oil a 9-inch square pan. Line with plastic wrap and oil the plastic wrap.
In a heavy saucepan over medium heat, combine the sugar, 1 1/2 cups of the water, and the lemon juice. Stir until the sugar dissolves and the mixture boils. When the sugar syrup boils, coat the inside of the saucepan with a brush dipped in water to prevent sugar crystals from forming. Reduce the heat and simmer gently, without stirring, until the mixture reaches the soft-ball stage. Remove the pan from the heat.
In a second large heavy saucepan over medium heat, stir together 1 cup cornflower and the cream of tartar. Gradually stir in the remaining 3 cups of water until no lumps remain. Stir constantly, until the mixture boils and is a thick, gluey paste.
Slowly pour the hot sugar, water, and lemon juice syrup into the cornflower mixture, stirring constantly. Reduce the heat and simmer, stirring often to prevent sticking, for about 1 hour, or until the mixture has become a pale golden color.
Stir in the rosewater and pepper. Pour the mixture into the prepared pan and spread evenly. Cool to room temperature and let stand, uncovered, overnight to set.
Sift the icing sugar and the remaining 1/4 cup cornflower onto a large cutting board. Turn the Turkish delight out and cut into 1-inch squares with an oiled knife. Roll pieces in the sugar mixture to coat well.
