    Captured outside the original Enfield Cycle Co works in Redditch, this incredible photograph comes from our archive collection and dates back to approx. 1914-15."

  2. Good Dinner.
    I had some red bell peppers to use up so this morning I made a batch of:

    Sweet Pepper Paste

    Ingredients:

    Red sweet pepper: 6 pcs.

    Chili pepper: 2 pcs.

    Garlic: 1 head

    Olive oil

    Cut peppers in half, remove seeds and stems. Place on sheet tray with heads of garlic.  Drizzle with olive oil,  Roast at 425 for 44 minutes.  Place everything in bowl and cover with plastic wrap to steam for about 15 minutes.  Remove skins from peppers - they should peel off easily.

    Place in blender with:

    Walnuts: 60 g. (1/2 cup)

    Breadcrumbs: 30 g. (3 tbsp.)

    Olive (vegetable oil): 70 g. (1/3 cup )

    Paprika: 1/2 tsp.

    Cumin: 1/2 tsp.

    Salt: 1 tsp.

    Sugar: 1 tsp.

    Pomegranate syrup (sauce) narsharab: 2 tbsp.

    Blend until smooth.

     

    For dinner I made
    Garlic Shrimp With Smoked Paprika & Honey

    Approx. 36 large shrimp, thawed, peeled + deveined (or prawns) (I used a dozen 16-20 shrimp)

    3 Tbsp olive oil, divided

    2 large cloves garlic, thinly sliced

    1.5 tsp smoked paprika

    1 tsp honey

    Salt + pepper, to taste

    Instructions

    Pat shrimp dry with a paper towel and place them in a small bowl. Toss them in 1 Tbsp olive oil and a bit of salt + pepper.

    Heat up a frying pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Once the pan is hot (a splash of water should sizzle on it), place the shrimp on the pan. They should be in a single layer with a bit of space between each piece – you may need to do this in stages, depending on size of pan.

    Cook the shrimp for 1-2 minutes per side, then remove and set aside in a bowl. They’ll be opaque, pink, and slightly browned when done.

     

    In the same pan, add remaining 2 Tbsp olive oil and sliced garlic. Sauté garlic for 1 minute, until browned and slightly fragrant. Stir in smoked paprika and honey, then add cooked shrimp back into the pan. Toss to coat. And added about ¾ of a cup of the Sweet Pepper Paste and about half a cup of water, Tossed to coat and served over rice.

  3. Holiday Safety.

     

    Remember everyone, with the coming holiday festivities travel will be an inherent danger. Roads are icy and there are more cars on them.
    Statistics clearly show that 36% of all injury or fatality accidents show that in one or both cars, an alcohol-impaired driver was at the wheel!
    Which means that in 64% of the accidents, teetotalers were at the wheel. 
    Please keep your family and others safe. Have a couple of snorts prior to getting behind the wheel.

    Isn’t it amazing? Technology and Medicine were not very advanced at all back then, yet these crazy guys risked life and limb for fun, excitement and for some, notoriety. 

     

     

    And were well dressed while doing it!
