Popcorn was first discovered thousands of years ago by the Native Americans. The oldest forms of corn, evidence of popcorn from 3600 B.C. was found in New Mexico.

Corn is able to pop because, unlike other grains, its kernels have a hard moisture-sealed hull and a dense starchy filling. This allows pressure to build inside the kernel until an explosive "pop" results. Some strains of corn are now cultivated specifically as popping corns.

There is even a crochetstitch named after popcorn: popcornstitch!

This is how you make plain popcorn:
1 tbsp oil

200 gr popcorn kernels

Put oil in a large pan with a thick bottom. Scatter the corn popcorn there and put the lid on the pan.

Heat the pan to medium heat. The corn will now pop.
Don't turn the heat no too high, otherwise it will burn the corn.
Turn the heat off when it stops popping.

SALTY POPCORN: Sprinkle salt over the popcorn.

SWEET POPCORN: Put a spoonful of butter in a heavy saucepan or wok. Few tablespoons powdered sugar on top and add the popcorn. Continue stirring until the popcorn has a light brown layer.

HONEY POPCORN: Pour 1 tbsp. thin honey over hot popcorn, shake it a couple of times and let it cool.

COLOURED POPCORN: 1 cup sugar, popcorn made with 1/2 cup corn, 20 gr. butter, 1/3 cup water, 6 drops of foodcolouring. Stir sugar, butter and water in a heavy saucepan to sugar is dissolved. Bring the mixture to a boil and let boil without stirring 5 minutes. Remove from heat and add foodcolouring. Stir the colored sugar mixture into the popcorn. Put the popcorn on a baking sheet and allow 5 minutes into oven until crispy and no longer stick together. Shake the colourded popcorn in a large bowl to combine.

CHEESEPOPCORN: 10 cups freshly popped popcorn, 1 tsp ground paprika, 1 tsp chilli powder, 1/2 tsp ground cumin, 2 spoons melted butter, 5 spoons grated Parmesan cheese, salt

Turkish stuffed aubergine (eggplant) in olive oil is a classic dish with a classic story: The name roughly translates as “The Priest Fainted,” though no one knows quite why. Some hold the imam was so overcome by the deliciousness of this dish that he fell into a swoon. Others say he was overcome with shock by the amount of precious (and expensive) olive oil in the dish. I changed the original recipe a bit for a change and made it less oily and with leek and dried tomatoes in it.

2009-02-11T23:16:00.000+01:00

This is the traditional treat served at New Year's Eve. My mum makes them every year and she insists in using sour apples in it. At New Year's Eve friends & family gather to celebrate the coming of the new year by playing games, watching television etc. One can be certain to find a huge bowl/tray filled with oliebollen.

500 grams of flour, 25 grams yeast, 3 ½ deciliter milk, 250 grams (in total) of currants and raisins, some salt, 2 apples oil for deep frying.

Put the flour in a bowl, make in the center a depression and pour the yeast, which has been dissolved with a bit of lukewarm milk, into the hole. Add the remaining milk and stir.

Stir the washed currants and raisins (and, sliced into small dice, apples) through the mix. Beat the mass to a smooth and airy mix and leave it, covered with a damp cloth (e.g. tea towel) to rise in a warm place (i.e. on top of a bowl with warm water) for about three quarters of an hour to one hour.

Use two table spoons or an ice scoop to shape balls and slide them into the hot oil or fat. The temperature of the oil should be such that it is only just giving off vapor.

Deep fry the oliebollen quickly until brown and thoroughly done. They should be soft and not oil soaked inside.

Remove them from the oil with a skimmer, leave for a short while to leak on absorbent paper and serve them with powder sugar.

TURLU TURKISH STEW

2009-02-11T22:32:00.000+01:00

Stews have been made since prehistoric times. Herodotus says that the Scythians (8th to 4th centuries BC) "put the flesh into an animal's paunch, mix water with it, and boil it like that over the bone fire. The bones burn very well, and the paunch easily contains all the meat once it has been stripped off. In this way an ox, or any other sacrificial beast, is ingeniously made to boil itself." Some sources consider that this was how boiling was first done by primitive man, perhaps as long ago as ½ to 1 million years ago. Here's the way I make stew.

Prepare all the ingredients like below and set aside.
GREEN BEANS 400 gr:
Cut in parts and cooked 30 min in water with some salt

BAKED POTATOES:
4 potatoes diced in cubes and baked 5 minutes in oil take them out of the pan and let drain

BAKED AUBERGINE AND ZUCCHINO:
Peel the aubergine a bit and cut in cubes, bake in oil, take them out of the pan and let drain

MEATBALLS:
200 gram ground meat (I use fatfree meat like beef)
1 egg,breadcrumbs1 small onion, grated,1/2 clove of garlic, grated
Paprikapowder,Cumin,parsley,pepper and salt.
Place all ingredients in a bowl and mix them well. Make little balls and bake them in (olive) oil or butter for 4 or 5 minutes.

How to make the stew:
Put some oil in a wok/pan and bake 1 sliced onion glazy. Bake a cutted green pepper, and add some cut tomatoes, let it all simmer.
Now add all the ingredients and some boiling water till vegetables are almost under water.
Season with salt and pepper and let cook, put fire low and let simmer for 2 hours. Or put directy in oven. If you put it in a traditional turkish pan (guvec) then the taste is even better.
You have to cover the stew and if you make it with olive oil you can eat it also cold

MASHED POTATOES WITH SPROUTS & CHICKENSAUCE

2009-02-11T22:29:00.002+01:00

Season with nugmegg, salt and pepper
You can serve direct or put in a ovenpan with butterpieces on top and breadcrumbs and cook in oven to keep it warm and you have a crusty top also.

Sprouts:
300 grams sprouts ugly edges cut away and cleaned
1 liter water
Cut off the ugly edges of sprouts and clean
Put in water with some salt, cook sprout 1,5 hour and strain off the water. Serve warm

Chickensauce
2 chickenfilets
1 paprika
5 tomatoes (or tomatosauce)
1 onion
salt and pepper
1 pepper

Cut filets in small pieces and bake in little bit oil.
