I thought their air-popper was all right, but the popcorn made by this Presto machine is far superior.

And, you can make it with coconut oil for a health-promoting snack.

Elegant Hummus bi Tahini

Elegant Hummus bi Tahini Photo Copyright M-J de Mesterton 2009 Please see Elegant Bread for M-J's pita recipe. M-J’s elegant recipe for hommos bi tahini, hummus bi tahine, tahina or whichever way you prefer to spell chickpea and sesame dip: mash the chickpeas and add sesame paste, preferably a very liquid one with lots of natural oil in it, and squeeze into this mixture the juice of a lemon, add salt, red pepper and olive oil to your taste. Mix until almost smooth. Serve hummus bi tahini with warm pita bread, Moroccan olives, shawarma , and whatever else you have on your meze table. Hummus is a perfect dip for summer entertaining. And without the very inelegant addition of raw garlic, which no one will miss, this dip is more socially acceptable. The lemon component is very refreshing, the sesame paste is tasty, and the garbanzos (chick-peas) are light and airy. Combining these simple ingredients results in a magical dish that is very popular at parties. ©M-J de Mesterton

Don't Waste Overcooked Pasta

Photo copyright M-J de Mesterton 2006 How to Salvage Overcooked Pasta Instead of dumping your overcooked pasta--the result of an emergency elsewhere while you should be watching the pot--drain it well and sauté it in butter, then add grated cheese if you wish. It will have a toasted flavor and stiffen up a bit if you brown it as shown. Sautéed in butter or olive oil, overcooked spaghetti or pasta can have a nice texture. You may even add the sauce of your choice after it is browned. A little butter won't kill you, but an Italian, faced with mushy pasta, might !
