6 pounds oxtails (1-inch cut)
2 tablespoons olive oil, not extra virgin
3 cups onions, medium dice
1 cup scallions, sliced
1/2 cup garlic, sliced
1/2 cup olive oil
2 teaspoons fresh ground pepper

Toss the ingredients together in a large bowl, cover, and refrigerate overnight.

8 sprigs thyme
Water
1 1/2 teaspoon cloves, whole
1 1/2 teaspoon allspice, whole
2 cups tomatoes, seeded and chopped
1 1/2 cups red peppers, chopped
Salt
1 Scotch Bonnet pepper, seeded and chopped


Take oxtails out of marinade and reserve onion mixture. In a heavy-bottom braiser over medium-high heat, brown both sides of oxtail in batches in olive oil, drain excess oil leaving just enough to saute onion mixture and thyme. After the onions and thyme are sauteed return oxtails to braiser and add enough water to cover 1/4 of the oxtails. Allow the liquid to come to a simmer. Put cloves and allspice into a sachet or tie in a cheesecloth, and submerge in liquid. Season with salt, cover, and put into a preheated 350 degree oven for 1 hour. Then add tomatoes, red and Scotch Bonnet peppers. Stir well and return pot to the oven for half an hour or until oxtails are tender. Check to see if additional water is needed during braising process. Seasoning with more salt is recommended when finished.

Pho (Vietnamese Beef & Rice-Noodle Soup) Recipe adapted from Nguyen Thi Thai Moreland by Shelly Doyle
Show: Calling All Cooks
Episode: Beef Noodle Soup/Paella





For the broth:
4 pounds Oxtails; cut into 1 1/2 to 2-inch pieces and trimmed of fat
3-inch piece of ginger, unpeeled
1 large onion, halved and unpeeled
1/3 cup nuoc mam (fish sauce)
8 whole star anise
5 whole cloves
3-inch cinnamon stick
1 teaspoon fennel seeds
3 bay leaves
For the garnish:
1 pound 1/4-inch rice noodles
2 bunches scallions, sliced thin
1/2 cup tightly packed fresh cilantro leaves, roughly chopped
1/2 cup parsley, roughly chopped
1/2 cup basil, approximately, whole fresh plants (minus roots) if possible
1 1/2 cups mung bean sprouts
3 large limes, cut into wedges and seeds removed
Red chile paste or sliced fresh hot chilies (optional)
3/4 pounds filet mignon, trimmed of fat and sliced very thin

Put the oxtails into a large stockpot and add enough water to cover the bones by 4 inches (about 2 gallons). Bring to a full boil and then lower the heat to a rapid simmer. Skim the scum that rises to the surface.
Meanwhile put the ginger and onion halves on a baking sheet and char them under the broiler until lightly blackened, 10 to 15 minutes. Turn them over halfway through cooking. When cool enough to handle, rinse the onion and ginger under running water, using a knife to scrape away some of the charred surface. Cut the ginger into 3 pieces and toss it and the onion halves into the simmering broth, along with 1 tablespoon salt and the fish sauce.
Put the star anise, cloves, and cinnamon stick in a small skillet and toast them on top of a stove burner over medium heat. Turn the spices a couple of times until they're slightly darkened (3 to 4 minutes) and until you smell their aroma. Put the toasted spices and fennel seeds in a small square of double thick cheesecloth and tie the bundle with a long piece of kitchen twine. Add the spice bundle and the bay leaves to the broth, tying the end of the twine to the pot handle for easy retrieval.


Let the broth simmer, uncovered, skimming occasionally. After 4 hours, remove the spice bundle, onion, bay leaves and ginger from the pot and discard. Remove the oxtails from the pot and set aside. Let the broth continue to simmer. When the meat is cool enough to handle, pull the meat from the bones. Set the meat aside and return the bones to the broth. Continue simmering, uncovered, until the broth is rich and flavorful, about 1 hour. Taste the broth and add more salt or fish sauce as needed.
Meanwhile, soak the rice noodles in cold water for at least 20 minutes. Arrange the sliced scallions, cilantro, parsley, basil, bean sprouts, lime wedges, and chiles on a platter in separate piles.
Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add the drained rice noodles. Give the noodles a quick stir and cook until tender but firm, about 1 minute. Rice noodles can quickly become gummy, so don't let them overcook. Drain the noodles. Warm 6 large bowls by rinsing them with hot water and divide the noodles among the bowls.

Just before serving, return the broth to a full boil. Arrange the slices of raw filet and pieces of cooked oxtail meat over the noodles in each bowl. Carefully ladle the boiling broth over all; the raw beef should be submerged in the broth. Serve immediately, along with the platters of garnish.


Caribbean-style Oxtails Recipe courtesy Emeril Lagasse, 2006

Episode: One Pot





2 tablespoons olive oil
3 pounds oxtails
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 cup small diced onion
1/2 cup small diced carrot
1/2 cup small diced celery
1/4 cup small diced leeks
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 tablespoon minced green onion, white part only
2 teaspoons minced ginger
2 tablespoons tomato paste
2 1/2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 (12-ounce) bottle beer (recommended: Guinness)
1 1/2 cups veal stock or low-sodium canned beef broth
1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley leaves

Add the olive oil to the One Pot (or any pressure cooker, or a Dutch oven) and heat over medium heat until hot. Season the oxtails with the salt and pepper. Add half of the oxtails to the One Pot and cook until well browned on both sides, about 3 to 4 minutes per side. Set the seared oxtails on a platter once browned and repeat with the remaining oxtails.
Once all the oxtails are browned, add the onions, carrots and celery to the pan. Saute the vegetables until softened, about 3 to 4 minutes. Add the leeks, garlic, green onions and ginger to the pan and saute for 1 minute, stirring often. Add the tomato paste and stir well to incorporate. Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables and stir to combine. Cook, stirring, for 3 minutes. Add the beer to the One Pot and increase the heat to medium-high. Bring the beer to a boil and cook for 5 minutes.

Add the stock and allspice, stir, and return the oxtails to the pan. Return the pan to a boil and place the lid over the pan. Once a steady stream of steam is emitted from the pan, lower the heat to a simmer, and cook the oxtails until tender, about 1 hour in a pressure cooker or 2 hours in a Dutch oven. Remove the lid, and stir the chopped parsley into the pan. Serve immediately.

Show: Emeril Live
Episode: Monster Meals





1 cup olive oil
1 cup flour
2 oxtails, cut into 1/4-inch slices
Salt and black pepper
2 cups medium diced onions
1 cup medium diced carrots
1 cup medium diced celery
2 tablespoons chopped garlic
3 bay leaves
2 tablespoons chopped fresh thyme
1 cup red wine
2 quarts veal or dark stock
1/4 cup parsley
1 1/2 pounds new potatoes, quartered
1 stick butter (8 tablespoons) cubed
1/2 to 3/4 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 ears of sweet corn, scraped from the cob, (11/2 to 2 cups)
1 (10-ounce) bag of spinach, cleaned, drained and stemmed
1 tablespoon chopped garlic
4 large parsnips, top skin removed and peeled into thin strips
Essence, recipe follows

Preheat the fryer. In a large stock pot or braising pot, add the olive oil. Season the oxtails with salt and pepper. Season the flour with Essence. Dredge the oxtails in the seasoned flour, coating each side completely. When the oil is hot, sear the oxtails for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, or until very brown on all sides. Remove the oxtails and set aside. Add the onions to the pan and saute for 2 minutes. Add the celery and carrots and continue to saute for 1 minute. Season with salt and pepper. Stir in the garlic, bay leaves, and thyme. Cook for 1 minute. Deglaze the pan with the red wine, scraping the bottom and sides to loosen the browned particles. Add the stock. Bring the liquid up to a boil and reduce to a simmer. Add the oxtails and continue to cook for about 2 hours, basting the oxtails often, or until the sauce is stew-like and the meat starts to fall off the bone. Season with salt and pepper if needed. Place the potatoes in the saucepan and cover with water. Season the water with salt. Bring the liquid to a boil and reduce to a simmer. Cook the potatoes until fork tender, about 10 minutes. Remove the potatoes from the heat and drain. Place the potatoes back in the pan. Place the pan back on the stove, over medium heat, and stir the potatoes for 1 minute, this will remove any excess water from the potatoes. Add the butter and cream. Season with salt and pepper. Mash the potatoes until slightly smooth. In a saute pan, heat the olive oil.
When the oil is hot, add the corn and saute for 2 to 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Add the spinach and garlic and continue to saute for 1 minute. Season the mixture with salt and pepper. Fold the mixture into the mashed potatoes and keep warm. Place the parsnips in the fryer and fry until golden about 1 to 2 minutes, stirring constantly to prevent the parsnips from sticking together. Remove the parsnips from the oil and drain on a paper-lined plate. Season the parsnips with salt and pepper. To serve, mound the mashed potatoes in the center of the plate. Lay a few of the oxtails on top of the potatoes and spoon some of the gravy over the top. Garnish with the fried parsnips.

Answer 4

Try making pancakes....1 cup of flour, 1tablespoon sugar, 1 teaspoon baking powder,1/4 baking soda,1/4 teaspoon salt,1 beaten egg, 1cup buttermilk and 2 tablespoons cooking oil. Mix dry ingredients first, then add wet ingredients, mix thoroughly. Lightly grease a skillet, pour 1/4 batter into a 3-inch circle. Cook on medium heat for approximetly 2 min on each side or until light golden brown color! Serve warm. I always add fruit and syrup with butter on top. Fills you up!! Only takes about 10min to prepare and only 4 min to cook. U could always make a big batch in advance too, just be sure to use it in a few days of making it...and keep it in the fridge! Also, if you'd prefer something cold...try making a fruit and yogurt smoothie! Put whatever fruit you'd like with some yogurt/oj with ice into a blender...done in a few min!! I buy a big bag of frozen mixed fruit, and use that in my smoothies. Makes a great meal,or evening snack!! Hope that helped!

If you want to eat truly healthy, lose body fat consistently, normalize your blood pressure, cholesterol levels, prevent cancer, and even boost your brain health and energy levels, you may have heard all over the news that the Paleo Diet has been found to be one of the best methods of achieving all of these benefits compared to any other popular "fad" diets out there. Go here https://biturl.im/aU11K

The truth is that the Paleo Diet will never be considered a fad because it's just simply the way that humans evolved to eat over approximately 2 million years. And eating in a similar fashion to our ancestors has been proven time and time again to offer amazing health benefits, including prevention of most diseases of civilization such as cancer, heart disease, alzheimers, and other chronic conditions that are mostly caused by poor diet and lifestyle. One of the biggest misunderstandings about the Paleo Diet is that it's a meat-eating diet, or a super low-carb diet. This is not true
