okey dokey I gotta try this since seeds are involved Couscous Salad 2 cups good stock 3/4 teaspoon cinnamon 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin 1/4 teaspoon turmeric 1 cup couscous 1 medium carrot, cut into 1/4 inch dice 1 small red onion, cut into 1/4 inch dice 1 small red bell pepper, cut into 1/4 inch dice 1 small cucumber or zucchini, cut into 1/4 inch dice 1 small Granny Smith apple, cut into 1/4 inch dice 1/3 cup currants or raisins 1-2 cups canned chick peas, rinsed and drained 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper In a heavy medium saucepan, whisk together the stock, cinnamon, ginger, cumin, and turmeric. Add the couscous in a slow steady stream, stirring constantly, and continue to boil, stirring, for 1 minute. Cover the pot tightly, remove from the heat and let stand for 15 minutes. Fluff the couscous grains with a fork, transfer to a large mixing bowl and let cool. Then fluff again, rubbing with your fingers to break up any lumps. Add the carrot, bell pepper, cucumber, onion, apple, currants and chick peas and toss. In a small jar with a lid, shake the remaining 1/2 tablespoon olive oil with the lemon juice, salt and pepper until well mixed. Pour over the salad and toss well. Cover and refrigerate for several hours or up to 3 days. Season with additional salt, pepper and lemon juice to taste before serving

I found this recipe on the web Tammy...Maybe you can use it???? I am interested in the Orange Onion Rosemary salad..sounds yummy and this might be close????
Tangerine-Rosemary Salad 1/2 cup fresh tangerine juice or orange juice 1/2 tsp. minced rosemary 1/2 small shallot, minced 1/4 C + 2 Tbl. Extra Virgin Olive oil 2 Tbl. Champagne vinegar 2 large tangerines or oranges 2 tsp. honey 4 cups (packed) mixed tender greens
Combine juice, shallot, vinegar, honey, rosemary and oil. Mix or shake well. Peel tangerines and slice thin. Cut slices into quarters. Wash and dry greens. Add tangerine slices to greens. Mix vinaigrette again and add to greens, mixing gently.
I would probable use Balsamic vinegar

Hey Comfrey thanks for joining the treasure hunt. I agree the balsamic vinegar would be best for that recipe.
Angelbloosom, please send me all your special hints and tips. They will go very well with what I've been gathering. We'll have to trade electronic cookbooks when I get mine finished.

Welcome to the treasure hunt Penny. Thankyou for the recipes. That's 4 seed packets for you so far. Good luck with the treasure hunt. Keep track of the number of recipes you submit in case I make an error counting. I do that from time to time. It's not on purpose it's just me and my disability.

OK, Ladies and Gents the treasure hunt will be closing on Friday morning so check those recipe books and call great aunt martha so we can get all of these recipes in the cookbook. This is shaping up wonderfully with all your help. The seed choices will be made this way. The person who submits the most recipes will get first pick of my personal stash of seeds then the person with the second most recipes entered will get to pick and so on like that. I have to do that because in most cases I only have one packet of seeds of each type of plant. In case of ties it will be random who goes first before the other person.

sorel sauce2 tsp softened butter 2 tsp flour 1/4 cup heavy cream 1/3 cup chopped sorrel Set the skillet with poaching liquid on the stove top over high heat, and reduce by half (about 5 minutes). Mash flour and butter together into a smooth paste. After the liquid has reduced, turn the heat down to low and whisk the butter paste into it until smooth. Turn up the heat and bring to a boil, stirring until the sauce thickens, 1-2 minutes. Stir in the cream, bring to a boil stirring constantly. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Take off heat, and stir in sorrel.

Miss Jamie on the Sorel Sauce recipe. How much "poaching liquid" are we talking about. I'm confused. I'd love to include the recipe but I think there is a bit of information missing.
