Since then I read on Martha Stewart (regarding spaghetti squash) to immerse it whole into boiling water for 10 minutes to soften it up enough to cut & then bake. An idea I may try next time.<BR/><BR/>Mexican food has mole sauce, which is chocolate-based and used on enchiladas, quesadillas, etc. It is chocolatey yet spicy with a hint of bitter and is very yummy....I wonder if it could be adapted for use with carob.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32480106.post-25005371577238822352007-11-03T16:23:00.000-04:002007-11-03T16:23:00.000-04:00ooh gorgeous pics!bitter melon is very bitter, but...ooh gorgeous pics!<BR/><BR/>bitter melon is very bitter, but you can pressure cook or boil and drain off the water, or else cut it into thin strips and deep fry like chips.<BR/><BR/>tindora is yummy sliced thin and sauteed in oil with a dash of curry powder and plenty of salt. when it gets soft and roasted it gets caramelized and tastes amazing.ranihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12694830200137225257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32480106.post-38197278559498468782007-11-03T11:59:00.000-04:002007-11-03T11:59:00.000-04:00there's this one kind of squash I like (for purely...there's this one kind of squash I like (for purely aesthetic reasons) - I think it's a variety of Hubbard squash? - and it's a gorgeous pale baby blue.

We made an awesome stew the other day with one. It was so easy and delicious! The only hard part is cutting the turban squash into pieces. They're tough suckers! After cutting up into manageable pieces, bake the pieces for a bit to soften up so you can scrape the squash innards out, drop in a pot, add some veggie stock and spices of your choosing, and you're basically ready to eat- (we originally an actual recipe fromWilson Farms (http://www.wilsonfarm.com) but I can't seem to find it on their website now). Served with veggie brats and Oktoberfest beer (Spaten or Paulaner are my favorite), this is one delicious fall meal!Alechttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15625117524371889820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32480106.post-4602188161546713162007-11-02T01:14:00.000-04:002007-11-02T01:14:00.000-04:00i didn't get to hug a vegan today, but i did get t...i didn't get to hug a vegan today, but i did get to hug my mom... i'm gonna hug myself before i get into bed just to make it right with the world.<BR/><BR/>nice piccies, bazoooooOOOoo.<BR/><BR/>xo<BR/>kitteeKitteeBeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00586088933112729165noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32480106.post-77350158260885806022007-11-01T22:31:00.000-04:002007-11-01T22:31:00.000-04:00Hmmm, from memory there are indeed some curry-styl...Hmmm, from memory there are indeed some curry-style dishes that utilise carob...

When you get ready to use one, do a search of my blog for Pinakbet and read the comments. People posted a lot of good suggestions for how to use it so that the bitterness doesn't overwhelm the dish.<BR/><BR/>Great photos, as always!Susan Voisinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16706612777547235769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32480106.post-34540885766613939542007-11-01T17:41:00.001-04:002007-11-01T17:41:00.001-04:00What a beautiful post!
