Hi Jim ...

   GREAT to link up to you again.

 PC> I also post to a Amateur Radio Packet Network via a staion
 PC> closeby, with recipes, which are in the thousands, and I am
 PC> currently trying to get the Network Cookbook together, which
 PC> is submissions over the years from other hammies.

 JW> A worthy endeavor.

Lots of friends, lots been retired and stuck in homes and their
hobby deined, as well lots like myself suffering but having
fun....laughter and fun are still the best medicine.

 
 PC> URUKU

 JW> I was able to track that down.

 JW> URUKU =  achiote = annatto

 JW> The universal scientific name of the plant is Bixa orellana.

  That is really interesting, as I got some quickie Tupi translation
into portuguese and into English, and even here...as we cruise the
Latino neighbour stores they have not a clue....but insist on
Papirki which isn't it.  < Yep!  I spelled Papirka wrong..or whatever>.
 
It was very strange painting with this stuff....then placing it on 
or having someone put it on my face for the ceremony....then they
really messed me up when they said it was used in food as a flavouring
or spice....hahahahaha.

 JW> I can't buy annatto in Yellowknife but it is common in stores in
 JW> large cities with a big Caribbean population. I have some Goya
 JW> products that contain it, which were a gift from Aura, who used to
 JW> post here a bit. Aura lives in New York city and is originally from
 JW> the Dominican Republic.

OK.... We have those stores in Toronto.   let me check'm out.
 
 PC> in a meal of natural vegetables such as the CUCA

 JW> I couldn't figure out Cuca though.

 I tired to grow it here.   Did not work out.
 

 JW> That's a tough combination, foodwise and otherwise. So gout
 JW> generally means low-fat and no alcohol as I recall? And kidney
 JW> problems often means low sodium and a careful balance of potassium
 JW> to sodium? Anything else I should know if I try to pick a recipe
 JW> that might be suitable after you check it out?

aaah right on .....I see the chicken below.    Yes we do have a lot
of it, and also natural soups.    


 JW> MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06
 JW> 
 JW> Title: Perfect Chicken Cacciatore
 JW> Categories: Chicken, Low-cal, Low-fat, Low-salt
 JW> Yield: 4 Servings

Maria's chicken cooking is pure Tupi and I have no idea what it
