Oven-roasted Sweet Plantains

A particular powerful method to [influence our children] is that family devotions are well taken care of in the home, as reading of God’s Word, fervent prayers, singing of psalms, necessary reprimands, teaching of the catechism, and summarizing sermons. We must take care that our families are little Churches, like those of Priscilla and Aquila, of Cornelius and others, Rom. 16: 5; Acts 10. For by continuous exercise the hearts of the members are influenced to love and obey the Word of the Lord.

INSTRUCTIONS

B: Jay Solomon, THE GLOBAL VEGETARIAN  Preheat oven to 400F. Cut off
the tips of the plantains. Place the  plantains, skin and on, on a
baking sheet and bake for 15 to 20  minutes, until the skin is charred
and puffy.  Take the plantains out of the oven and let cool for a few
minutes.  Slice the plantains down the center lengthwise and peel back
the  skin. Cut the plantains in half widthwise, sprinkle with nutmeg
and  transfer to serving plates.  TIP: To ripen green plantains, set
them out at room temperature for 5  to 7 days. Storing them in a paper
bag will speed up the process. Do  not refrigerate.  Posted to EAT-LF

“When Holy God draws near in true revival, people come under terrible conviction of sin. The outstanding feature of spiritual awakening has been the profound consciousness of the Presence and holiness of God. #Henry Blackaby”
