1/3/2008 8:54 AM Page 11 Foreword Pickles and relish and, indeed, the cucumbers from which many such things are made often conjure memories of picnics and cookouts. But of course over the cen- turies pickled items of all kinds have been featured at the most formal tables of roy- alty, as well as being set out as fancy side dishes for the rich and famous. Fact is, folks around the world would enjoy far poorer diets were it not for the plethora of delight- ful things produced in the age-old pursuit of pickling and fermenting. And Bev Alfeld certainly pursues the best in any culinary endeavor, not the least of which is perhaps her forte, pickling and preserving. In short, she is an expert. If readers of Pickles to Relish have enjoyed her earlier successful work, The Jamlady Cookbook, they will know that in her latest effort little of value or interest in the art of pickling has escaped the attention of Bev or the Jamlady. She thinks big; when she takes on anything, especially in the culinary field, she can be counted on to research it in depth. As extensive as the information presented in Pickles to Relish is, you will find it fully accessible to both chef and home canner. This is because Jamlady and Bev Alfeld believe canning is more than food preservation, a tenet certainly evidenced by this book; it is useful to youngsters as well as adults because it teaches application of math and history and pride in self-sufficiency. Illustrating accessibility even to neophytes is the book’s how-to for making small batches of pickles without canning—you can put them in the refrigerator or leave them out to develop at room temperature. Of special note are the more technical aspects of Pickles to Relish. Although a bit complex for novice canners, the Alfeld Notation System still alerts them to the importance of processing times and altitude considerations. There is an excellent dis- cussion of relative acidity and a pH chart in the back of the book. Few cookbooks offer so many recipes for chutneys, or such a diversity of pickle and relish recipes, from mild to wild—like pickled green walnuts to top filet mignon, pickled kumquats in champagne or pickled dilly beans and asparagus in a Bloody Mary.

Thanks to my pub- lisher, Dr. Milburn Calhoun; my editors, Nina Kooij and Heather Green; my pho- tographer, Mr. Jim Smith, and his three assistants, Ryan Basten, Justin Allen, and Jason Torres. A special thanks to my two children, Kim Alfeld and Tim Alfeld; to my mother, Doris Schoonmaker; and to my extended family and friends. Without all of you special people, Jamlady and Bev Alfeld could not thrive, teach, and influence. Finally, thank you Jamlady for allowing me to write some of this book by myself. Not everyone appreciates you all the time, but I do. For those who don’t believe in Tinker Bell, Jamlady is hard to explain. Jamlady, like Betty Crocker, is the ideal cook and canner, although Bev Alfeld influences Jamlady and visa versa. Bev Alfeld hears Jamlady’s little voice above her shoulder when she cooks. Maybe you have a little voice that talks to you, but perhaps your Tinker Bell does not know how to cook and talk. Jamlady does. 13 pcri01eFM_f.qxp 1/3/2008 8:54 AM Page 14 Three jars of jardinière. pcri01eFM_f.qxp 1/3/2008 8:54 AM Page 15 Introduction Pickles to Relish provides information on food preservation for the home- maker, canner, gardener, professional chef, food scientist, doctor, artist, pick- ler, chemist, farmer, nurse, nutritionist, food historian, anthropologist, ethnobotanist, backyard-grill master, and anyone else who is interested in condiments, cooking, self-sufficiency, food history, education, art, new experi- ences, and healthful food.

  • Chapathi Recipe
    Barley Adai Recipe / Barley Indian Recipe Barley is a wonderfully versatile grain with a nutty flavor and chewy consisitency. Barley are very good for health, they are high in fiber and selenium, also it lowers cholesterol, blood pressure, blood sugar and prevents cancer. Barley Adai Recipe is a popular south Indian crepe made with barely, rice and lentils. You can see my traditional recipe for Adai made with drumstick leaves. I followed the same adai recipe and included barley to it. This barley adai tastes delicious and a healthy breakfast dish and it does not need any fermentation. Adai goes well with chutney or podi. Barley adai recipe is good for people with diabetes and those who want to reduce weight. Barley are very cheap and nutritious so try to include in your diet.
