  • Cleo Coyle's Nuts on Horseback
    Cleo Coyle’s Nuts on Horseback Bacon-Wrapped Butternut Squash (or Sweet Potato) Bites Text and photos (c) by Alice Alfonsi who writes The Coffeehouse Mysteries as Cleo Coyle with her husband, Marc Cerasini. This is my own adaptation of a retro treat from Victorian England that’s still popular in the UK at Christmas. Each little package offers a delightful combo of flavors and textures. Simply take bite-sized pieces of butternut squash (or sweet potatoes), wrap each in a small strip of maple bacon, secure with a toothpick, brush with pure maple syrup, and roast. How much bacon? How much maple syrup? What temperature? My recipe answers those questions and shares tips. If you're curious about the odd recipe name, Nuts on Horseback, it comes from the recipe that inspired it: Devils on Horseback, in which you stuff a dried fruit (usually a prune or a date) with an almond or mango chutney before wrapping in bacon and cooking. Devils on Horseback was invented as a twist on another recipe: Angels on Horseback, in which a raw oyster or scallop is wrapped in bacon. In my own version, the "nut" comes not from an almond but the butternut squash, or try sweet potatoes, if you like. P.S. If you’re wondering why bacon is represented as "horseback" in these recipes, there are two theories, one reaching back to Norman warriors circa 1066. Learn more in my blog post here or search for “Nuts on Horseback” at CleoCoyleRecipes.com and…eat with historic holiday joy! ~ Cleo Makes about 80 appetizers Ingredients: 1 butternut squash, 2 to 2.5 pounds (or sweet potatoes) 12 pieces maple bacon 3/4 cup pure maple syrup Free Recipe Guide to Cleo’s new culinary mystery Shot in the Dark: click here.

  • The Devil Is in the Details 8-12-15.Pdf
    NEW ORLEANS NOSTALGIA Remembering New Orleans History, Culture and Traditions By Ned Hémard The Devil is in the Details Deviled eggs, deviled ham, a printer’s devil and who knows what the devil else! To determine the meaning of these and other terms and idioms, well, The Devil is in the details. Deviled egg lightly sprinkled with fresh paprika Seems when it comes to determining the origin of the expression, The Devil is in the details, the details are devilishly dumbfounding. The late William Safire, presidential speechwriter and author of “On Language” in the New York Times Magazine, investigated this topic in 1989: “Let's turn to the man who is culling and updating the next edition of Bartlett’s Familiar Quotations: Justin D. Kaplan, biographer of Mark Twain and a world-class scholar. ‘We’ve had little success with God (or the Devil) is in the details,’ says Mr. Kaplan. ‘We know that Mies van der Rohe used it in discussing architecture; Flaubert has been suggested, but nobody can find it in his writings. I think it may come from John Ruskin, because it sounds like him on the subject of workmanship, but we need the specific citation.’” It is widely accepted that the devil version of the phrase is a variation on the God phrase, though the exact origin of both is uncertain. And the word detail is used in both the singular and the plural. The Devil is in the Details means that, when mistakes are made, they usually occur in the small details of a project.

  • Angels & Devils on Horseback
    Angels & Devils on Horseback One of the most important aspects of the ritual that watching the big football game has become is the feasting that goes with it. So why not bring some friendly competition to the snack platter? These appetizers do just that. Angels & Devils are old school, dating back to 19th-century Britain, and divisive right down to their names. The Angels came first, oysters simply wrapped in bacon and fried. Devils followed later, with prunes replacing the oysters. They took the name “Devils” only to counter the angels, not because they were particularly spicy. British palates of that era weren’t so keen on heat. That was then, this is now, and we want a kick. So line ’em up, and feel free to wager on which disappears first. Ingredients angels 6 thin slices guanciale, 5½- to 6-inches long each 12 medium oysters (such as Blue Points), shucked and drained 1/2 teaspoon shichimi togarashi (Japanese 7-color chile pepper) 1 or 2 wedges of lemon or lime 12 rice crackers, preferably seaweed flavored 1 tablespoon furikake, preferably wasabi flavored devils 12 pitted dried plums (a.k.a. prunes) 1/3 cup plum wine 6 thin slices guanciale, 5½- to 6-inches long 1 teaspoon finely grated kumquat or orange zest Generous pinch cayenne 1/4 cup cream cheese, softened 12 thin almond crackers Sliced kumquats, for garnish (optional) (or a quartered slice of clementine if kumquats are unavailable) 2 teaspoons finely chopped tamari almonds special equipment 24 toothpicks, soaked in water for at least 30 minutes Directions for the angels Working in batches, cook the guanciale over medium-low heat in a large frying pan, turning once, until translucent and just barely golden in spots, but still pliable, about 3 minutes.
