Sicilian Roast Leg of Lamb with Potatoes

Sicilian Roast Leg of Lamb with Potatoes
For this simple Sicilian Easter dish, Cosciotto di Agnello con Patate, a leg of lamb is roasted over a bed of potatoes. This recipe appeared in our March 2011 issue as a part of our special feature, Soul of Sicily.

SERVES 8


3/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 tbsp. crushed red chile flakes
2 tbsp. dried oregano
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 bunch parsley, minced
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1 6–7-lb. leg of lamb, trimmed
8 large russet potatoes, peeled and quartered


Heat oven to 500°. In a medium bowl, combine oil, chile flakes, oregano, garlic, parsley, and salt and pepper to make a paste; rub paste over surface of lamb. Set lamb in a large roasting pan and place pan in oven; roast until lamb is browned, about 30 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 400°, cover lamb with aluminum foil, and continue cooking for 40 minutes. Remove foil, add potatoes to pan, and toss with rendered fat; continue cooking until potatoes are tender and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of lamb reads 140°, 45–50 minutes more. Let rest for 20 minutes before serving.

Pineapple and Rosemary Glazed Ham

Pineapple and Rosemary Glazed Ham
The ham generally refers to the cut of meat from a hog's hind leg between the shank and the hip bone. There actually is such a thing as fresh ham, although what we think of is usually cured ham. Many factors contribute to the meat's taste, including what the animal was fed and the spices used in curing the ham. Aficionados can quote chapter and verse for this cut of pork nearly the same way sommeliers describe their wines, but at the end of the day, ham, coated with mustard, pineapple and rosemary as it is here, or prepared some other way, is good eatin'.

Chicken, squash

Chicken, squash
Gnocchi, a small potato dough dumpling that is Italian in origin, and seasoned chicken breast tenderloins top a rich blend of squash, chicken broth, and sage. This is an easy main dish that is ready in less than 30 minutes. Gnocchi is also available in a dried form that is made with semolina flour, rather than potatoes and is considered to be a type of pasta.

Chupa-Chups Missing Pieces

Chupa-Chups Missing Pieces
Just came back from Paris yesterday evening. Can’t say I enjoyed much. Apart from marvelous architecture and breath-taking historic sights and museums, it felt like any other European metropolis. Perhaps I expected too much, thus was little bit disappointed. I enjoyed seeing Napoleon’s resting place at Les Invalides, and Louvre museum the most. There were so much tourists, I couldn’t stop feeling like one. Perhaps if I had some local friends, they could help me experience local life (and point me where I could eat some good food), ultimately making the trip much more interesting…
Sorry for such a long intro, just wanted to inform you I’m back now (and how last few posts were set to automatically appear each day, and were written few days ago ;). It’s also why it took so much time to get your comments approved. Now that I have charged my batteries once again, let me roll up my sleeves and continue sharing some good stuff! For today I bring you two posters that feature Missing Pieces illusion we featured some time ago. Seems that Chupa-Chups company jumped the optical illusion billboard wagon as well!

West Texas Fires

West Texas Fires
Hard to describe – started at one small stone house (thus the Stone House Fire) across the highway on the far west side of Marfa. Immediately spread across the street, at times the fire swept to the north so quickly our friend Paul (a volunteer firefighter) says their truck couldn’t keep up. Some cedar posts evaporated, cattle, coyotes, mountain sheep and other animals were burnt alive (if lucky, the others are being shot by compassionate men & women), up through the prairies along highway 17, at the end of the Marfa runway, spread across the highway, both sides of 17 – lunar surfaces today. The fire swept up houses on its way to Ft. Davis, and another 25 houses in Ft. Davis. Back along southern and western edges of Ft. Davis State Park, didn’t hit McDonald Observatory (yet. . .hopefully never . . . even today only 65% contained). Up through Wild Rose Path, the granite lined path from Ft. Davis to Balhmoreah. All the way up to the Boy Scout Camp – I read yesterday it was still just south of the camp – they now estimate 165,000 acres, 65% contained. It takes over an hour to travel its distance by car

The " Born This Way " singer also explains her frustration with big-name artists and producers who keep sending her their tracks to record not realizing she writes all of her own songs. "If you want me to be a manufactured act, you can f--- off," she says. Heard ya loud and clear, Gaga!

QR-LPD (Quick Response Power Liquid Display), un e-flexible del papel

En abril del año pasado, hemos mostrado un prototipo de los QR-LPD (Quick Response Power Liquid Display), un e-flexible del papel desarrollado por el fabricante japonés de neumáticos Bridgestone . Un avance rápido hasta abril de 2011, y resulta que la empresa no sólo ha rebautizado el e-papel "Aerobee", pero también se utiliza el tiempo para mejorar la tecnología.

El prototipo de litio-ion pilas Bridgestone recién exhibida en una exposición en Tokio, tiene las siguientes características:

  • pantalla: 13.1 inch/A4 (color) pantalla táctil con un lápiz
  • SO: Linux 2.6.24
  • CPU: ARM11
  • Conectividad: Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, la tarjeta de memoria, USB 2.0
  • sonido: integrada en la salida de sonido y micrófono de 3,5 mm
  • Espesor: 13 mm
  • peso: alrededor de 730g

Por desgracia, parece que Bridgestone tiene por objeto la comercialización de la Aerobee con un ojo puesto en el mercado de la empresa en primer lugar.

Este video (filmado por nuestros amigos de Diginfonews en Tokio) proporciona una visión más clara:
