Belizean Fu-Fu (Mashed Plantain)

I bought a recipe book by a local women’s group on my recent trip to Belize (Silly Bug & Bittle Recipes) and this one sounds like something I would like. I love plantains and I love mashed sweet potatoes, so I’m guessing I would like this. The original recipe calls for just the plantain but the site requires at least 2 ingredients so I added butter and salt as I have a feeling I’ll add a little of both, but will give it a try plain first and then modify as needed.

Poached Pears in Kriek

Kriek is a special Belgian beer which some say is reserved for consumption by the fair sex! For this recipe the Kriek made by Lindemans is recommended. This recipe is taken from De Vlaamsche Pot by Marie Cattoor.

Gianduia (Gianduja) (Nutella) (Chocolate Hazelnut Spread)

A sweet hazelnut chocolate spread, great for icing, fillings, and just for spreading. This recipe scales perfectly, so make as much as you want, Also the ammount of oil used will determine if the spread is thickness of the final spread
