Cooking advice

Buy Local Food : The most local food of all comes from your own garden. Plant a new garden, enlarge the one you already have, or extend your growing season by using row covers and cloches.


One of the best elements of travelling is sampling local delicacies, so please don't order a burger and chips when you are in India - not only is the meat likely to be of a poor quality (sometimes so poor that it will make you sick), but you are turning down some of the most wonderful food in the world - and possibly offending your hosts.

Ingredients And Procedures

3 md Peaches

1 Envelope unflavored gelatin

1/4 c Cold water

1 c Prickly pear juice

1 1/2 c Prickly pear pieces

1/2 c Honey

5 tb Lemon juice

1/2 c Whipping cream

Plunge the peaches into a large pot of boiling water for one minute; using a slotted spoon, transfer them immediately to a large bowl of cold water. The skins should slip off easily. Slice the peaches. There should be about 1 1/2 cups. Sprinkle gelatin over the 1/4 cup of cold water in a small bowl. Set aside. Combine 1 cup prickly pear juice with peach slices and prickly pear pieces in a medium saucepan. Simmer over low heat for five minutes. Turn off the heat under the fruit and strain off 1 cup of juice. In a small saucepan, combine the juice and honey and cook gently just at a simmer for eight minutes. Add the softened gelatin and lemon juice to the honey mixture and stir until gelatin is dissolved. Puree the fruit and remaining juice in a blender. Combine with the gelatin and honey mixture and freeze in a bread pan or similar container. When nearly hard, remove from freezer, transfer to a bowl, and beat with an electric mixer. Beat the whipping cream until stiff and fold into the fruit mixture. Return to the bread pan. Refreeze until firm.
