Jowtes With Almond Milk

All the afflictions of God’s people are designed, under His gracious management – to test, to make manifest, and to exercise, those graces and virtues which He has implanted in them. Though afflictions in themselves are not joyous but grievous, nevertheless they yield the peaceable fruits of righteousness in those who are exercised thereby. Afflictions serve to quicken the spirit of devotion in us; and to rouse us from that formality and indifference which frequently attend a long course of ease and prosperity. We are constrained to seek God with sincerity and fervor, when His chastening hand is upon us, since we then feel our absolute need of that help and deliverance, which He alone can give us.

INSTRUCTIONS

Prepare the spinach by taking off the stalks and washing the leaves
thoroughly, it should weigh 1 1/2lb when prepared. Strip the green
ends of the leeks to expose the tightly folded green part at the top
of the white stem, slice it across thinly. Strip the herb leaves off
their stems and chop them.  Put all the greens and herbs into a large
stewpan and add 2 pints  water. Bring to a simmering point, cover and
cook gently until the  leek slices are tender. Put the ground almonds
and flour into a  saucepan. Add enough cold water to make a smooth
cream.  Drain the spinach, reserving the cooking liquid. Chop and puree
most  of the spinach in a food processor, keeping a few whole leaves
for  garnishing. Stir in the almond milk and about half the reserved
spinach liquid; add all the flavourings. Return the mixture to the  pan
and simmer, stirring, until well heated through and slightly
thickened. Add extra liquid if you wish, serve in a tureen with the
garnishing leaves on top.  DISCLAIMERÂ© Copyright 1996 - SelecTV Cable
