Unbelievably yummy Spiced Juice
 

You need a juicer for this recipe. (I :heartpump my Breville juicer). You can add extra fiber (ground flax seed, psyllium, etc.) if you want. This stuff is liquid nutrition and it's soooo good!

1 lb carrots
1 orange
1 lemon
1 apple
1" fresh ginger
1 cardamom pod

Juice together. Top with nutmeg or pumpkin pie spice.

Unbelievably.

:( Is there a way to edit titles?

done

thank you!

Now go drink your juice! :)

That sounds very good. I have cardamom (powder but its not bad) but never know what in the hell to use it with/in/for except for when I make Cincinnati chile.

I'm gonna try this. Do you take the seeds out of the lemon first? They are really bitter as are orange seeds.

I have a Vita Mix but dont' use it nearly often enough.

Cincinnatti chili? recipe?
I'll trade you my cardamom rusk recipe...

Deal.

Cincinnati Chili
2 large onions, chopped
3 tablespoons oil
4 garlic cloves, minced
3 pounds ground chuck
4 tablespoons chili powder
2 teaspoons ground cumin
2 teaspoons sweet paprika
3/4 teaspoon cayenne
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground turmeric
1/4 teaspoon ground coriander
1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom
2 (8 oz.) cans tomato sauce
2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tablespoon molasses
3 cups beef broth
2 tablespoons cider vinegar
Accompaniments:
Cooked spaghetti
Cooked red kidney beans
Chopped onion
Finely grated cheddar cheese
Oyster crackers

In a heavy kettle, cook onions in oil over
moderate heat, stirring til soft. Add garlic
and cook one minute, stirring. Add ground
chuck and cook, stirring and breaking up
lumps until it is no longer pink.

Add spices and cook, stirring, 1 minute.
Stir in tomato sauce, cocoa, molasses,
broth, vinegar, 3 cups water, salt & pepper
to taste.

Bring to a boil and simmer, stirring
occasionally, for 1 1/2 hours or til thickened
but soupy enough to be ladled. The chili
will improve in flavor if cooled and chilled
overnight. Add more water as necessary
when reheating.

To serve the chili "five-way", ladle it over
individual bowls of spaghetti and top with
beans, onion, and Cheddar. Serve oyster
crackers on the side, preferably in a small
bowl.

shit another non greenlighter. Now I have to go hunt my rusk recipe. BRB

OK, Mr. Pants:
Cardamom Rusks
Cream 1/2 Cup Butter w/ 1.5 cups sugar
Add 3 Eggs and beat.
Crush 1 dozen cardamom seeds (ha ha or: 1Tablespoon Ground cardamom)
Stir in 3 Cups Flour mixed with 2 teaspoons baking powder
pat out to about 3/4" thick.
Bake at 350f for 30 minutes, cut into diamonds and re-toast.

Leave the lemon whole, peel and all. But peel the orange--the orange peel is too bitter.

P.S.--I had to look up "rusk."

And I actually left the cardamom off this time because I couldn't find it--you can adapt the spices to your liking, but they go really well with the carrot juice.

yum. chili spaghetti! That recipe looks so good! And I happen to have everything in my pantry. Except the beef, of course. And the molasses.

Does it freeze well?

Excuse me? Carrots turn you on?

ha ha ha ha! I forgot all about that phenomenon. I was so wrapped up in all those lipstick parties...

If no one minds, I'll crosspost these to the This Is The Latest Recipe Thread.

Do you like curry, Beestie? -- cardamom happens. See my thread.

I love Indian food in general. There's an Indian restaurant across from where I work that has a lunch buffet - veddyveddyguud - I eat there all the time.

Its really a shame I suck at cooking. I'll have a look at the recipe thread and try it if it doesn't require too much expertise.
