Brussels Sprouts in Vinaigrette

We always enjoy vinegar on our cabbage, greens and Brussels sprouts. This recipe is from the Daytona News-Journal and was adapted from the Washington Post.

Styrian “gigantes” (Scarlet Runner Bean Casserole)

This is a styrian version (Styria, Province of Austria) of a hearty, simple and vegan Greek Bean dish, that tastes heavenly and uses “Käferbohnen” (Scarlet runner beans) instead of white giant beans. If you can’t get hold of Scarlet Runner Beans use giant beans instead. The original recipe calls for about 200ml olive oil, i cut that lavish amount in half, and still find it’s enough oil left :). Prep.time comes without beansoaking time!

Smoked Salmon Carpaccio With Extra Virgin Olive Oil and Lemon

Carpaccio refers to a dish that has been very thinly sliced for presentation. This could we served as an entree for a elegant dinner. This comes from a book called ‘The Australian Heritage Cookbook’ by R & R Publications Marketing Pty Ltd

Basil & Tomato Salad

I promise this is one of the nicest ways to enjoy quality tomatoes and basil. Like I say, don’t make this if you can’t get hold of home-grown or vine-ripened tomatoes. It’s not worth doing. And don’t use your tomatoes from the fridge.
