namely:
hotness to the nth degree ..





Yesterday I finally found the corner shop, and for the first time, chilies Verona round, used in typical Piedmont as an appetizer with tuna or anchovies in salt :-( :-(: - (

Unfortunately the peppers were spicy, which has led to the end, a burning sensation extended to the entire face of my dear assistant cook sneezing ...

Here you can see it in the care of his infermierina (me) ;-)

cmq eventually managed well chilli ... : O)

Ingredients for 4 jars:

30
round chillies 1 tsp mustard
3 tablespoons salted capers

5 / 2 sun-dried tomatoes 2 medium potatoes
a small handful of basil leaves extra virgin olive oil to taste



vinegar Soak the capers in vinegar and warm water for at least 1 hour.
Boil the potatoes without salt and with the skin, then let cool.
Blanch the peppers for 6 minutes (previously washed) in water acidulated.
Drain and let cool.
Blanch the dried tomatoes (I have them boiled with pepper)

pepper Remove the stems and empty them gently with the use of a spoon or with the back of a fork.
Prepare the filling: Pass the potatoes with a potato masher and add all other ingredients previously blended with the blender.
With the use of a sac-a-few fill the peppers, place them gently in jars with some basil leaves, then fill to the brim with oil and top up if necessary, in subsequent days.

Keep away from heat and light. Taste after 20 days.

PS. Since we have made yesterday, as they will not know, I'm afraid too hot .. but the taste of the filling, I assure you, it was not bad! ;)

NB: Not that the tuna is less worthy of respect anchovy sad face, but the more you stretch the list of fish, more smilies increase !!!!!

Saponaria officinalis

On saponaria officinalis, after reading on baked peppers on Sunday, it's worth a post .. This is the

saponaria officinalis



Here is how to best use the soap and other information on natural soaps: natural soap

I paste an excerpt:
9. Saponin
"It 's a complex organic substance, sour, bitter, soluble in water which makes it foamy. There is a large number of indigenous plants: the spotted arum, Pellitory of the wall, ivy, horse chestnuts' India, silene, the root of soap, etc..
saponin emulsifies fats and resinous bodies, therefore the properties 'detergent soap, but it does not contain alkali, and' more 'used to wash delicate fabrics. And' excellent as washing your hair (shampoo). In horticulture and 'useful for the preparation emulsions of insecticides and fungicides, which facilitates penetration. "
[Source: Bibl Op 1 January]

9.2 Saponaria
" is used, making a cold infusion, or rather hot.
The decoction of soap is prepared in this way: It is cooked for a long time in the bark 10 times its weight of boiling water, adding the evaporated water from hand to hand. It separates the liquid from these pieces of bark and boil it again in another little water to extract all or most of saponin, then mix the two decoctions so obtained, after being praised. You can 'use this liquid as it is or with the addition of soap or various solvents and acids, as will' set in individual cases.
After use of soap is a yellowish tint on the fabric, which you can 'make disappear by washing with water acidulated with a few drops of acetic or citric acid or lemon juice. "
[Source: Bibl Op 1 January ]

"The presence of saponins, flowers, leaves and rhizome, causes them to give rise to a foam cleanser really effective so much so that in some regions, still using a decoction for washing lace Saponaria officinalis , embroidery, silk fabrics and yarns.
To realize this property, a simple experiment is to collect a peak blooming with soap and rubbing his hands making the act of washing. Ben soon you will see a thin layer of foam and finally, the skin will appear cleansed, soft and white.
The use of this plant used for fine crafts that often deserve the status of art and are valuable as ancient forms of traditional activity, so ancient that five centuries before Christ was already talking about the soap for scouring wool that nomadic peoples of Asia employed to weave their famous rugs, after having the same color as flowers, leaves or berries.

(...) Today it is acknowledged that the plant we are dealing with a virtue in cosmetics, because, by being boiled in water for about fifteen minutes, provides a perfect foamy decoction for washing his hair thin and fragile, or those children. "

'PROPERTY':
BEAUTY: A decoction of soap, after being was filtered, can be used as a strengthening shampoo for fragile hair and brittle or sensitive skin to clean: do not worry if you do not produce much foam, not the amount of foam that has to judge the goodness of a detergent.
HEALTH: The decoction of soap is rinsed from the skin affected by acne or psoriasis.

CURIOSITY ':
This herb was cultivated since the Middle Ages for its high content of saponin, a substance found in stems, especially in leaves and roots, through which just exercising his gentle but deep cleansing power. A decoction of soap, made by boiling the plant in different parts of the rain water is very suitable to restore the splendor of ancient fabrics whose colors have been dimmed by dust and time. "

Its rhizome collected in autumn after flowering was used to wash the wool. The soap was also used to manufacture rudimentary toothpaste. [Source: www.erbe.it / Erbes . htm]
