The Ac Free Wednesday Nov 1978 Since my family is quite Interested In eating and since they try just about anything I used to have a bookshelf that was full of cookbooks from different countries When we moved to Alberta I weeded out he ones that used that often but still scan articles on cooking to see what different In a BBC bulletin was an intriguing item sandwiched between Farewell to and Roses from Ulster entitled First Catch Your Camel Itreadasfollows An adventurous inter national cookery book has Just been published as a result of the recipe competition run by the BBC World Service radio magazine The Morning Show Pete Myers the regular compere of the program chose top recipes from the 300 entries sent in mainly from Africa and the Middle East Some of the titles are fascinating in themselves for example Judeau Hills Sweet and Sour Honey Divinity Bessie Barnes Carrot Cake Tuna Tart and Stuffed Camel And they are enhanced by comments from the com The camel recipe comes from Libya and the ingredients apart from one medium sired camel includes lambs or goats chickens and kilogrammes of tomatoes These quantities says the competitor should be for about 150 guests Then she adds Should your guests exceed this number you may easily increase the servings up to by gar the camel with a circle of stuffed chickens There is a recipe from Ghana for a dish with plantains lobsters and eggs which the sender promises reliably stands you against earthquakes He also recommends you wash it down with four feet of sugarcane From Spain there was a recipe for coconuts filled with cooked fish and from Malawi a way of cooking tongue with cocoa And in another book I learned about Klvlak an Eskimo dish consisting or fermented These are eaten either raw or cooked and add considerable zip to an otherwise fairly bland menu To make kiviak seals are skinned by making circular cuts around the tall flippers and around the neck The blubber is cut free from the meat with a long knife then the entire skin plus blubber is pulled off the carcass One end is sewn shut and up to lucked arc stuffed into the blubber lined bag The other end is closed and it is then covered with a pile of stones to ripen Tor a yeororso If it is too cold fermentation cannot take place if too warm the blubber turns rancid and the birds are spoiled At the right the blubber slowly permeates the birds Riving them the smell and taste of old Gogonzota cheese In all my cooking and ex never tried anything like that nor do I Intend to The closest ve come to camelcooking was the week my husband informed me he d invited friends up for a roast suckling pig dinner At thought it was a great idea and had visions of this lovely brown little piggy all set out on a big platter Then I started reading through recipe One had the cook basting the pig with beer jet every 10 minutes for the first three hours then every five minutes for the last hour how it could cook with being hauled out of the oven Another recipe was equally complicated ending up with setting the pig on a bed of watercress with an apple in its mouth cranberries in its eyesockets and a cranberry garland around its neck All the instructions began with Tie the pig feet for ward and under him but my pig s feet wouldn go forward I had the choices of taking him down on the floor and trying to crack his joints wherever they might be roasting him standing up which seem quite proper or baking him on his side which I did wonder how a person would go about roasting a camel or even stuffing it I don suppose I II ever find out but out this way you never can tell FriendsinDeed Halloween party brings out ghosts by Mrs Emily Price Our Friends meet ing on October was a very interesting and enjoyable one We were very pleased to welcome two new
