Ärende: Chilli Spice
====================
On 05-19-07 GLEN JAMIESON Scribbled to DAVE DRUM about TOMATO SAUCE IN 

GJ> GJ>your commercial "Chili powder" - another blend of ingredients not
GJ> GJ>sold here.  The unknown proportions of ingredients may be what
GJ> GJ>puts people here off buying that sort of thing.

GJ> DD> Chilli powder is a blend of spices. And nearly everyone has a
GJ> DD> different  take on what it should contain. There is no reason
GJ> DD> that, were there a  market for it, an Aussie chilli blend would
GJ> DD> not go over well. Most folks  don't need to know the proportion
GJ> DD> of ingredients - just "Is it tasty?" 

GJ>They would have to buy and try it first to see if they enjoyed it.
GJ>That would be the problem in getting a market developed.

And that is why universities graduate marketroids. Hype, smoke and 
mirrors will create the initial market ... after that if the spice is 
decent it will stand on its own merits.

GJ> DD> I have made and used both of these chilli powders ... 
GJ> DD> Either is an excellent starting point for a pot of red.

GJ>I have snagged those.  Thanks. I recall the tin of your chilli powder
GJ>you gave me years ago.  As well as its use in making a chili, it was
GJ>wonderful as a rub for chicken wings and drumsticks.

Thank you. (takes sweeping bow)

GJ>BTW, I have just had a brilliant idea.  I should hunt around for an
GJ>old lightweight portable mechanical typewriter, become proficient
GJ>with it, and then take it on a plane.  Then, when the MLoos and other
GJ>executive types around me open up their battery-powered note-books
GJ>and earnestly tap away, I could set up my typewriter to catch up with
GJ>my own mail. It might cause a few raised eyebrows, but it wouldn't
GJ>run out of battery.  Later, I could scan my writings to turn them
GJ>into electronic files suitable for editing or emailing.  What do you
GJ>think?

I think you should contact Bill Swisher and ask for an e-mail address 
from his "luddites.org".

      Title: Broiled Brunch Grapefruit
 Categories: Five, Fruits, Booze, Wine
      Yield: 4 servings
 
      2    Texas red grapefruit
           Light brown sugar
           Butter
           Sherry; Cream Sherry or Rum
           -(opt)
 
  The tiny amount of sherry adds an elegant, distinctive
  touch to this wonderful brunch offering, which can also
  serve as a first course or even a dessert.
  
  Wash grapefruit and cut in half crosswise. Remove the seeds
  and cut around each section with a sharp knife. Sprinkle
  each grapefruit half with 1 tablespoon of light brown sugar
  and dot with a teaspoon or so of butter. Broil for 6 or 7
  minutes, just until sugar melts and bubbles. Remove from
  broiler and add 1 teaspoon sherry, cream sherry or rum to
  the center of each grapefruit half, if desired.
  
  Serve immediately.
  
  Note: Select grapefruit that are heavy for their size. They
  will be the juiciest.
