<s_ashken@kla.com> Since there were several (!)  requests, herewith is
the first wave of recipes from the Tokyo  HotLuck. --Scott  From Kim
(aka Dana Garvey), the only other know JCH on the list: In  preparing
for the first formidable Tokyo Hotluck, I wanted to be sure  what I
made would be spicy enough for everybody. Turned out many  people
thought either one or the other thing I made was the spiciest  that
night. For me though, the pickled habaneros stashed in our  generous
host's fridge did the trick. Ate one whole- WOW. Another  chile-head
managed to swallow his while avoiding the seeds. Don't  know how he did
it, but I wanted my seeds anyway.  from The Fiery Cuisines, by Dave
DeWitt & Nancy Gerlach:  Pour 1/4 cup boiling water over the saffron
and let soak for 10  minutes. Cook the rice in 2 cups salted water for
10 minutes, then  drain.  Heat the butter until very hot, add the
ginger, mustard seeds,  cashews, and cloves and fry the mixture.
stirring constantly, until  the seeds begin to burst. Add the chile,
lime juice, rice, and the  remaining cup of boiling water and stir
well. Pour the saffron water  over the mixture and bring to a boil,
stirring once. Cover the pan  tightly and bake at 350 degrees F for 20
minutes or until the liquid  has been absorbed and the rice is tender.
Fluff with a fork before  serving.  N.B. Be careful with amounts of
water. I managed to use too much.  CHILE-HEADS DIGEST V2 #253  From the
Chile-Heads recipe list.  Downloaded from Glen's MM Recipe  Archive,

A Message from our Provider:

“Let Him therefore send and do what He will. By His grace, if we are His, we will face it, bow to it, accept it, and give thanks for it. God’s Providence is always executed in the ‘wisest manner’ possible. We are often unable to see and understand the reasons and causes for specific events in our lives, in the lives of others, or in the history of the world. But our lack of understanding does not prevent us from believing God. #Don Fortner”
