Buy Local Food : If you were to turn back the clock 100 years, what would gardeners in your area be growing? Try regional heirloom varieties of garden standbys such as beans, squash, tomatoes and melons, which were selected for their flavors and reliability in the days when personal survival often depended upon a garden’s success. Appalachian “greasy” beans or creamy New England-bred butternut squash can help open the door to great flavors from the past.

One of the best ellements of travelling is sampling local delicacies, so please don't order a burger and chips when you are in India - not only is the meat likely to be of a poor quality (sometimes so poor that it will make you sick), but you are turning down some of the most wonderful food in the world - and possibly offending your hosts.

A few beef tips

You are best doing your shopping at a high street butcher instead of a big-name supermarket. A quality butcher will more often than not have a better range of beef cuts than the self-service store, he will know more about the meat, is more likely to have hung it properly, and he will be able to advise you on cooking procedures.

Ingredients And Procedures

2 Loaves pizza dough or thawed

frozen bread dough 225 G ground beef (ground round or other low fat

3 Cups dried tomatoes

1 Cup shredded mozerrella cheese

2 Cups spinach (wash it and cook it; chop coarsel

2 Cloves garlic

15 Ml or less olive oil

parmesan cheese salt and pepper

1. Refresh the tomatoes in hot water and chop them.

2. Crush and saute garlic in olive oil. Add the ground beef. Cook.

3. Drain off excess oil. Add salt and pepper to taste.

4. Take each loaf of pizza dough or bread dough and cut it into 4 pieces. Pat, roll or stretch each piece into a 15-20 cm circle.

5. Filling the calazones: Be sure to keep all filling at least 1/2 cm from the edge or else you will have trouble sealing them. Place 1-2 Tbls of meat on half of the dough. Add some tomato bits and spinach. Top with 1 Tbls cheese and a bit of parmesan.

6. Dip your fingers into warm water. Wet the edge of the dough. Stretch half of the dough over the filling and press the edges to seal. Either use your fingers or a fork to seal them. Or you can roll the bottom edge up over the top edge, twisting them together like a rope around the edge. This method is slightly more time consuming, but the calazones generally don't leak.

7. Place calazones on a baking sheet that has been greased or covered with cornmeal. Let them rise in a warm place for 30-60 minutes. Brush lightly with oil. Bake 20-30 minutes at 180 ?C .

Difficulty : moderate. Precision : measure ingredients.
