Δε φτάνει ο ήλιος μονάχα, η γη σοδειά να δώσει, χρειάζονται κι άλλα πολλά, και προπαντός η γνώση… (Κωστής Παλαμάς)

Έλληνες, ο πραγματικός Έλληνας ηγέτης θα βρεθεί. Το πιο σημαντικό αυτή τη στιγμή είναι να βρεθεί ο πραγματικός Έλληνας ΠΟΛΙΤΗΣ!"

"Προδότης δεν είναι μόνο αυτός που φανερώνει τα μυστικά της πατρίδος στους εχθρούς, αλλά είναι και εκείνος που ενώ κατέχει δημόσιο αξίωμα, εν γνώση του δεν προβαίνει στις απαραίτητες ενέργειες για να βελτιώσει το βιοτικό επίπεδο των ανθρώπων πάνω στους οποίους άρχει..." - Θουκυδίδης (460-398 π.Χ.)

Λένε ότι οι πραγματικοί φίλοι μπορεί να περάσουν μεγάλα χρονικά διαστήματα χωρίς να μιλήσουν ή να ειδωθούν, χωρίς ποτέ να τεθεί σε αμφιβολία η φιλία τους. Όταν βλέπονται, ενημερώνονται σαν να είχαν μιλήσει την προηγούμενη ημέρα, χωρίς να λαμβάνεται υπόψη ο χρόνος που πέρασε ή πόσο μακρυά ήταν!

“Γίνε εσύ η αλλαγή, αν θες να αλλάξεις τον κόσμο” Μ.Γκάντι

RATA HONEY ICE CREAM

  • ½ cup (100gms) RATA HONEY
  • 4 Tablespoons water
  • 4 egg yolks
  • 300 mls whipped cream

Melt the honey and water together slowly until the honey has dissolved. Stir, then bring the liquid to a rolling boil, until there are little even-sized bubbles all the way across the pot. Whisk the egg yolks in a large bowl with an electric beater. With the beater running, slowly pour in the hot syrup. Continue whisking until the mixture has cooled and is double its volume, or as thick as whipped cream. Fold whipped cream into mixture, checking sweetness. Pour into a mould, cover with plastic wrap and freeze for a minimum of 8 hours.

To Serve
Leave at room temperature for 5-10 minutes to soften slightly. Run a knife around mould, sit mould momentarily in 2.5 cm of hot water and put ice-cream onto a serving platter. Garnish with Southern Rata flowers if possible.

Serves 6

LOW FAT COMB HONEY MUFFINS - With Apple and Cinnamon

This is a little known trick for the use of comb honey. The beeswax in this recipe replaces the butter or other fats normaly used in making muffins. The beeswax provides the flavour carrying characteristics of the fats but as we do not have the appropriate enzymes to digest beeswax, it does not provide any calorific input!

This recipe will also work for other muffin mixtures.

  • 200gms comb honey
  • 160gms flour
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 apple finely chopped
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp cinnamon

    Method:
    Place the comb honey and eggs in a food processor, blend together until smooth. Transfer to a mixing bowl. Sieve the flour, cinnamon and baking powder and add to the mixture. Combine lightly with a wooden spoon (Important!! Do not beat or mix vigorously!!). Add the chopped apple and mix lightly to combine. Place mixture into well greased muffing tins (½ full). Bake for 20 minutes at 185° Celsius (365°F).

    Notes: Makes 12 muffins. If using a convection/fan oven drop the temperature back to 170° Celsius (340°F)

    If using mini muffin tins they will take approximately 12 minutes.
