Lemon Apple Ginger Cider Recipe

Materials:

  1. a lemon
  2. fresh ginger
  3. star anise or allspice (optional)
  4. a cinnamon stick
  5. dried clove buds
  6. jug of fresh apple cider (not from concentrate!)
ginger lemon apple

Preparation:

  • Warm a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the cloves and the cinnamon stick. If you like star anise or allspice, you could add a couple of pieces of those too. Warm the spices for a minute and then add the apple cider.

  • Scrub the lemon with soap and rinse it well. Cut the pithy ends off of it. Slice it into quarters. Score the inside of the lemon with a knife and squeeze each slice gently into the cider. You don’t need to juice it completely; just coax some of the juice out for now. Drop in the lemon slices and go to work on the ginger while everything warms up.

  • Using the edge of a spoon, peel the ginger. If you want your cider super gingery, peel two fingers of it. One is probably enough for most people, but I like mine spicy. When the ginger’s clean, grate it into a small bowl. Squeeze any extra juice out into the bowl and include the pulp. (You could also blend it, but then you’d have to clean the blender.)

  • Add all the ginger bits to the cider and bring it up to a simmer.

  • Stir the cider and turn it down low. Taste it carefully to check the temperature and flavor. It can sit there for a while if you’re baking or waiting for friends. When you’re ready to serve it, ladle the cider through a small strainer into mugs.

Possible to Lose Weight with Lemonade!

The Promise Celebrities including Beyoncé have used this diet. But it's far from the principles of healthy eating, and the results aren't likely to last. The Lemonade Diet, also called the Master Cleanse, is a liquid-only diet consisting of three things: a lemonade-like beverage, salt-water drink, and herbal laxative tea. The claim is simple: Give it 10 days (or more) and you’ll drop pounds, "detox" your digestive system, and feel energetic, vital, happy, and healthy. You’ll also curb cravings for unhealthy food. It all started with Stanley Burroughs’s book, The Master Cleanser. There are many variations, and Peter Glickman continues Burroughs’s legacy with his own book, Lose Weight, Have More Energy and Be Happier in 10 Days , and web site. Does It Work? Because you're getting so few calories, you'll probably lose weight.  You’ll also be losing muscle, bone, and water.  And you're likely to gain the weight right back. There's no proof t...

Lamb Kebab - Meat Bread ( Konya Cuisine )

The characteristics of being the capital of the Anatolian seljuks and the home of rumi, shams and sultan walad have also left distinctive marks in Konya's gourmet culture Konya is one of the most important centers in Anatolia, where the Greeks, Romans and Byzantines, Seljuks, Karamanoğulları and the Ottomans once reigned. Intercultural exchange, due to intersecting trade routes and a heavy flow of caravan traffic have enriched Konya’s diverse cuisine. The etiquette and selectiveness of the Seljuks is maintained in the province to this day. The unusual table manners and dining etiquette that developed in the palaces of Konya are still observed to a certain extent. For example, unlike most cultures who eat dessert after the meal, in Konya dessert is eaten before the meal. Okra soup, one of the traditional dishes of Konya, is served towards the end of the meal, for example, due to the known fact that okra aids in digestion. These traditions most likely originated from the tradi...
