PCOS and Jicama (Mexican Turnip): A Nutritious Addition to Your Diet
Discover how jicama, a low-glycemic root vegetable, can benefit women with PCOS. Learn about its nutritional value and delicious ways to incorporate it into your diet.
Recipe by Jackson Cannon Vermouth is easier to make than one might think: It doesn't require special equipment or impossible-to-find ingredients (Amazon sells wormwood and gentian).
1 pound strawberries, hulled and sliced
2 1/4 cups unaged (clear) brandy, preferably French
2 3/4 cups sugar
4 small rosemary leaves
7 small sage leaves
2 teaspoons oregano leaves
1 teaspoon thyme leaves
1 tablespoon bitter orange peel
2 teaspoons wormwood root
1/2 teaspoon gentian root
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
One 1 1/2-inch piece of vanilla bean
Three 750-ml bottles (9 1/2 cups) rosé, preferably Spanish Garnacha
1 cup ruby port
1/2 teaspoon finely grated orange zest
In a glass jar or pitcher, cover the sliced strawberries with the brandy and let macerate for 2 days at room temperature; the strawberries should be completely submerged.
Strain the infused brandy through a cheesecloth-lined sieve; discard the strawberries.
In a large nonreactive saucepan, combine the sugar with 1/4 cup of water and cook over moderately low heat, swirling the pan occasionally, until the sugar is dissolved and a medium-amber caramel forms, about 10 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and carefully add the strawberry-infused brandy; the caramel will harden. Cook over low heat, stirring, until the caramel is dissolved. Remove from the heat.
In a nonreactive medium saucepan, combine the rosemary, sage, oregano, thyme, bitter orange peel, wormwood, gentian, ginger, vanilla bean and 3 cups of the rosé. Bring to a boil, then remove from the heat and let stand for 10 minutes. Stir in the port.
Add the infused port and the remaining 61/2 cups of rosé to the strawberry-brandy caramel syrup. Stir in the orange zest and refrigerate until cold, about 2 hours.
Strain the vermouth through a cheesecloth-lined sieve. Pour into bottles and refrigerate. Serve the vermouth as an aperitif or over ice, or use it in a cocktail.
