Hello all,
It's been a while since I've posted, as I've been in and out of the hospital I'm afraid. That's a whole other story, but for now I just wanted to mention that people have really been liking the Raw Paella episode that we put together recently. Take a look at it when you have a chance, it's pretty spectacular, Tanja has outdone herself this time.

The episode is here (scroll down a few shows):
www.freshtopia.net

The recipe (or at least the ingredients) follows. This recipe is a little involved, but well worth it. Most of our shows are relatively simply by comparison. Hope you enjoy!

Freshtopian Paella:

Saffron Dressing:
Whisk together,
Lg pinch saffron soaked in
2T lemon juice for 20 minutes or more
2T olive oil
1t agave syrup or honey
dash sea salt

Marinated Mushrooms:
1/2C oyster or other mushrooms marinated in
1/2C water
1/4C rice-wine vinegar (apple cider would work too)
2T nama shoyu or soy sauce
1T dulse flakes
1t paprika

Paella “Rice”:
1 1/2C turnip, chopped
1/3C pine nuts
1/4C bell pepper
2T onion
1t garlic
2 sm. tomatoes, chopped
1/2C fresh peas
1/4C parsley
1/4C sun-dried tomatoes soaked well, chopped

Pulse turnips, pine nuts, bell peppers, onion, and garlic in food processor until grainy rice-like consistency. Stir in tomatoes, peas, parsley and saffron dressing. Top with drained marinated mushrooms, sliced green olives, additional finely chopped parsley and a dusting of paprika.

All the best,
