Advocaat (Dutch Eggnog) Recipe
Recipe
Ingredients
10 eggs 1/2 level teaspoon salt 275 g sugar 4 deciliter cognac 1 1/2 level teaspoons vanilla essence, (extract, i think)
Recipe
Preparation
Separate the eggs and beat the yolks with the salt and the sugar, until the mixture is thick and creamy. Beat in the cognac, very slowly and put the mixture into a double saucepan. Heat gently, whisking all the time until the advocaat is warm (not hot) and thick. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the vanilla essence. Pour into a jug. Advocaat is served in a glass and eaten with a teaspoon. It can also be topped with whipped cream.
Also, might I add, that advocaat is nothing like the eggnog here in America...it is thick and creamy---not foamy at all. Boy, is Advocaat delicious!
(I usually get a bottle of it from the Dutch-America store and skip the above...:)
This delicious Dutch drink is actually eaten with a spoon!

Lycopene foods
(includes melon, red peppers and tomato puree)
The chemical lypcopene is a natural coloring compound and one of the phytochemical group known as 'carotenids'. It is the agent responsible for the vivid red hue of a good number of fruits and vegetables.
Intrestingly, unlike many nutrients, lycopene not only survives being cooked, but is essentially strengthened by cooking.
.
Its most important benefit is that it works as an antioxidant and is believed to be of use in the fight to lower the risks of cancer.
