Recipe
Preparation
* Garlic Puree - peel 8 whole heads of garlic by smashing the cloves
with the side of a wide knife; the peel will slip off easily then.
Put the peeled garlic in a blender with about 2 cups of water, and
puree. Drain, if necessary, and store in a tightly closed glass jar
in the refrigerator.
At weddings, showers, saint's days celebrations and other special
occasions a hostess was sure to serve small tortillas or gorditas
(which are fatter, or mas gorda, than tortillas), one filled with
beans, the other with BARBACOA, along with shredded cappage, dressed
with vinegar and oil, and a salsa of some kind. Often nacatamales
(cocktail size tamales), perhaps filled with chicken, potato, raisins
and olives, would make up part of the plate offered. And no party was
complete without at least one verse of "Las Mananitas", the Mother's
Day song, or bizcochuelos, buttery cookies shaped like wreaths and
with the unforgettable flavor of anise.
In an 8-quart stock pot, bring water to the boil, add meat, garlic
puree, spice pouch and salt. Bring to the boil again, skim scum,
reduce heat and simmer 1 hour, or until the meat is tender,
frequently removing scum. Remove meat and cool enough to handle.
Discard spice pouch; reserve liquid. With fingers, shred the meat
finely.
In a large skillet, heat oil and saute green chile, onion, garlic
puree, vinegar, broth and jalapeno. Add bay leaf. Add shredded meat
and the rest of the ingredients. Simmer until flavors blend, about 10
minutes.
Place seasoned meat in a large, shallow baking pan and bake at 300
degrees for about 1 hour, stirring occasionally.

Food Tips of the Week
Losing weight
In deciding on a meal plan, it is important to attempt to moderate your consumption of fats, refined carbohydrate and salt.
Some lower carb diet tips:
* Make low carb bread crumbs for deep fried or oven baked foods.
While you may be able to buy reduced carb bread crumbs, you may make them at home by simply using reduced carbohydrate bread. Simply toast the reduced carbohydrate bread in a gas or electric oven on a baking tray. Once it is well browned, process it in your blender. Keep in a tupperware jar or container.
* Use soya flour or baking mix.
When you require flour for baked goods, substitute soy flour or a soya baking mix such as Atkins soy baking mix. In most cases, you may adapt your most popular recipes that use standard wheat flour to use these alternatives.
Flavonoid foods
(inlcudes garlic, spinach, adzuki bean & tea)
The nutrients called 'flavonoids' present in these food types are thought by nutritionalists to have properties as anti-carcinogens.
Researchers researching the effects of flavonoids think they might also have numerous other healthy properties, amongst them, anti-dermatitis and antiplatelet capabilities.
The majority of these also have a low calorie count, so should be included in every diet system.
