Arroz al Liberal
I clicked on a banner ad for tourism in Andalucia, and on the link to,
what else, food. The article mentioned a specialty of Granada called "el arroz al liberal" - Blue State Rice. I googled arroz al liberal and found only the Spanish version of the page which says this: el arroz al liberal (cargadísimo de especias con perdiz y conejo deshuesados) = heavily laden with spices and boneless partridge and rabbit Yahoo search found the same sites - can anyone find a recipe? Thanks -- ================================================== ============= Louis Cohen Bah! Humbug! |

Go here and click on #7. Arroz con conejo. http://www.alqueriamorayma.com/recetas.htm It's a rice with rabbit recipe -- in Spanish, but probably decipherable. Somewhere near that page I found this: El arroz que cocinamos es el arroz con conejo. Aquí se le hecha almendra y azafrán productos que se cultivan en la zona. Cuando la carne es liebre o conejo silvestre, se le suele llamar arroz liberal. Es un arroz caldoso. Which may say, since my Spanish is always questionable, something like: The rice we cook is rice with rabbit. Here it's made with almonds and saffron, productos cultivated in the area. When the meat is hare or wild rabbit, we are accustomed to calling it 'arroz liberal.' It is a soupy rice. -aem |

At least as far as Shrub's approval rating goes, Tejas isn't the reddest state, believe it or not: http://www.dailykos.com/storyonly/2005/11/23/13222/916 Many metro areas in TX are actually purple...and Austin is downright BLUE!

Thanks - that was it, I'm sure. How did you find the web site?

Mostly I wander around, clicking here, clicking there, backing away from [most of] the porn sites, clicking some more.... But when I want Google to do most of the work I typically include as many relevant words or phrases as possible, enclosing (sometimes on a trial basis) as many in quotation marks as possible. Just now, for example, I googled on <arroz liberal> and got 111,000 hits. I googled on <arroz liberal andalucia granada perdiz conejo> and got 319 hits, the first two pages of which included several likely prospects. Then I went back and enclosed "arroz liberal" in quotation marks and got 8 hits, all of them relevant. In this particular case I also got lucky, because the 'al' in 'arroz al liberal' turned out to be a red herring. The way I happened to do it avoided that. -aem |

And Texas has Naomi Shihab Nye, an incredible poet, a terrific writer
of children's books, a great hearted spirit. She's in San Antonio, too, not Austin. I met her in NYC and we talked politics. She wanted me to know that not all of Texas is W country. Leila |

I met her in NYC and we talked politics. She wanted me to > know that not all of Texas is W country. The rural areas (and the affluent suburbs) are mostly W country, but that's true of many other states (even "blue" ones), as well. Harris Co. (where Houston is located) voted 55% (for W) to 45% (for Kerry) in '04--almost 50/50. Hardly the same as other southern "red" states (e.g., Mississippi and Alabama). I think people not from TX are often surprised at what a diverse state it is (I know I was when I moved down here from PA 15 years ago). Yes, parts of it are exactly like what most people would expect TX to be like, but other areas are very, very different. OB food: Grilled pork loin stuffed with bacon cornbread stuffing and rubbed with olive oil, garlic, paprika, and s/p, along with steamed broccoli for dinner last night (and lunch today). Chili (in bread bowls) for dinner tonight. Mary |
