"What does cookery mean? It means the knowledge of Medea and of Circe, and of Calypso, and Sheba. It means knowledge of all herbs, and fruits, and balms and spices... It means the economy of your great-grandmother and the science of modern chemistry, and French art, and Arabian hospitality. It means, in fine, that you are to see imperatively that everyone has something nice to eat."
John Ruskin (1819-1900)

Cooking Tip of the Month: Preparing split peas |
|
|
For every cup of dry peas, use two cups water. With split peas, there is no need to soak.
|
| |
|
Bring water to a boil and cook for about 30 minutes, or until the peas reach desired tenderness. One cup of dried peas will yield two cups of cooked peas.
