Hearts Of Palm And Papaya Salad

A steady diet of performances by soloists or even choirs can have the unintended effect of undermining the corporate, participative nature of our musical worship. People can gradually come to think of worship in terms of passive observation, which we do not see modeled in the Bible. Such a diet may also begin to blur the line between worship and entertainment, especially in a television-sopped culture like ours, where one of our most insidious expectations is to be always entertained. Of course, this blurring is hardly ever intended. But over time, separating the “performers” from “the rest of the congregation” can subtly shift the focus of our attention from God to the musicians and their talent – a shift that is frequently revealed by applause at the end of some performance pieces. Who is the beneficiary of such applause? (Mark Dever and Paul Alexander).

INGREDIENTS

1		Ripe Hawaiian papaya
1	t	Sugar

1	t	Fruity olive oil
1	T	Fresh lime juice
1/4	t	Kosher salt
1		8 oz hearts of palm

INSTRUCTIONS

Cut the papaya in half lengthwise. Scoop out the seeds, put them in a
strainer, and rinse. Cover the papaya in plastic wrap and reserve.
Arrange the seeds on a baking sheet and bake in a 350F oven, turning
twice, for 15 minutes. Do not overbake or they will become tasteless.
Cook and dry.  Place seeds in a mortar and crush with a pestle to a
coarse grind (or  use the bottom of a heavy skillet) so you get at
least 1 tablespoon.  In a bowl, dissolve the sugar in the oil, lime
juice, and salt. Add  the hearts of palm and mix.  Arrange the lettuce
on a serving plate. Slice the reserved papaya and  place the slices
attractively over the lettuce. Mound the hearts of  palm and dressing
in the center of the plate. Cover with onion slices  and sprinkle with
the crushed papaya seeds.  [ SOURCE 1998-Ap http://www.melissas.com/ ]
