Healing through cultural food. How do the seasons teach us and guide us on what to eat. It’s important to remember our culture as it is the very ingredient of who we are.

    What’s in season local organic produce for winter

    What is in season is something we should be asking ourselves every season. Here's the recipe for Jerusalem Artichoke Soup: 2 tablespoons of olive oil 1 shallot or leek peeled and chopped 1 medium carrot grated 2 stalks of celery grated 1 tablespoon of Confit Garlic (check out my Youtube on how to make it) 900 grams of Jerusalem artichokes peeled and sliced 900 grams of vegetable stock, remember when you blanche your vegetables to keep the water the minerals are in that water, place it in an airtight container and date it so you know when you made it. 60 ml of coconut cream 30 grams of chives washed and roughly chopped Celtic salt and cayenne pepper to taste. Instructions: Heat the oil in a large saucepan add the shallots or leeks, celery, carrots and garlic and gently saute when the soffrito has softened after about 5 minutes, add the jerusalem artichokes and stock bring to boil, reduce the heat and simmer gently for about 20 minutes or until the soft. Blend the soup into a food processor then place into the saucepan add the cream and season to taste this is a great super soup!

    Unbosoming in the Daily Mirror with Cathy

    Hi there, in this episode I share with you my friend Cathy who runs a local radio broadcast called the Daily Mirror Heres the recipe for the croquette: Large knife Cutting board large pot for frying Colander to strain potatoes Potato ricer Medium bowl with egg wash 2 Large bowls one for potato mixture, one for breadcrumbs Large baking sheet with baking paper Slotted spoon 1 kg Desire Potatoes  1/2 cup of Parsley Chopped 3 tbsp Pecorino cheese or Parmesan cheese Proscuitto Crudo, about 4 slices, if you want you don't have to put it in. Mozzarella cheese 2 Eggs 1 for mix, 1 for egg wash 1 tsp Nutmeg optional Bread crumbs Fresh is best or Panko Breadcrumbs Salt & Pepper Sunflower oil or Canola Oil, for frying Wash your potatoes, then cut them in half—no need to peel them for this recipe. Add the potatoes to a large pot with water and boil on medium-high heat for 20 minutes. While the potatoes are cooking, dice the prosciutto crudo and mozzarella. This helps the cheese melt inside the potato croquettes. Cool the potatoes slightly; they need to be warm for mashing. Then using the potato ricer, mash them into a bowl and let them cool for another five minutes. Add the parsley, pecorino cheese, salt, a generous amount of pepper, and one egg into the cooled mashed potatoes. Don't be afraid to add more pecorino if you want! Mix the potato mixture using one hand until well combined. It’s time to shape and add the filling into the potato croquettes. Wet your hands, have a side dish with water this will help you to dip your hands into it and then scoop up a portion of potato and flatten it, leaving a dent for the mozzarella and ham filling. Once filled, close the croquette and roll it into a log shape, ensuring the edges are square. Set aside on a tray lined with baking paper. Repeat until all the potato croquettes are formed. Add oil to a large pot and have your stove on medium-high heat. Cover the potato croquettes with beaten eggs and breadcrumbs one by one, making sure they're completely covered. Set aside once you have done this step so they can rest and firm up. Place croquettes (depending on your pan, make sure that they are loose so that they have room to fry) into your hot oil and gently stir as they cook for three minutes or until golden brown. When each one is ready, remove the croquettes with a slotted spoon. Drain each batch on a plate with paper towels and repeat until all the potato croquettes are cooked. These croquettes are street food in Sicily, you can place them into a roll and mangia enjoy!
