Accompaniment : haricots verts with mustard seed and toasted coconut Prepare squash: Preheat oven to 375F. Halve squash lengthwise, reserving 1 half for another use. Halve remaining squash piece diagonally crosswise and season with salt. Arrange wedges, cut sides up, in a small roasting pan filled with 1/2 inch of water. Cover roasting pan tightly with foil and roast until tender, about 1 hour. Prepare scallops after squash has been roasting for 30 minutes. Pat scallops dry and season with salt. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a 10-inch non- stick skillet over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking, then brown scallops on both sides, 4 to 6 minutes total (scallops will be almost cooked through). Remove from heat. Add turmeric and toss until scallops are yellow, then transfer to a bowl. Cook jalapeno, garlic, ginger and 1 tablespoon lime juice in remaining 1/2 tablespoon oil in skillet over moderately high heat, stirring, 1 minute. Add water and simmer until water is evaporated and chile mixture is softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Add cream and garam masala and simmer 2 minutes. Remove from heat and cover. When squash is tender, add remaining 2 teaspoons lime juice and scallops with any liquid that has accumulated in bowl to sauce and simmer until scallops are just cooked through and sauce is slightly thickened, about 2 minutes. Place a squash wedge on each of 2 plates and spoon scallops and sauce over squash. GARAM MASALA: 1 tablespoon coriander seeds, 2 teaspoons cumin seeds, 1 tablespoon green or white cardamom pods, 1 3-inch stick cinnamon, crushed, 1/4 teaspoon black peppercorns. Toast coriander and cumin seeds in a dry small heavy skillet over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Cook, then finely grind with remaining spices in an electric coffee/spice grinder or with a mortar and pestle. Cuisine : "Indian Food" Source : "The Best of Gourmet, 2002, page 162, photo on page 64" NOTES : Squash may be roasted 1 day ahead and chilled, covered. Reheat, covered in a microwave about 5 minutes. For a fuller, more caramelized squash flavor, but a more rustic presentation due to browning, roast squash uncovered, cut sides down and substitute 2 tablespoons butter for the water in pan. Scallops and sauce may be prepared separately 2 hours ahead and chilled, covered.

Formatted by Chupa Babi: 12.18.07 A tahini-based dough is rolled in gold- or silver-dusted sesame seeds for eye-popping cookies that melt in the mouth. (They're just as delicious if you skip the fancy gilding.)

Stir in sugar and water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer 15 minutes. Remove from heat; cover and let stand 12 hours (do not refrigerate). Bring to a boil, uncovered, over high heat. Reduce heat; simmer 1 hour and 15 minutes or until thick, stirring occasionally. Place 1 cup preserves into each of 4 sterilized (8-ounce) jars. Cover with lids and cool upside down on a wire rack. Chill. Note : Preserves will keep in the refrigerator for up to six weeks. Yields 4 cups (serving size: 1 tablespoon) Source : Cooking Light, November 2005. Formatted by Chupa Babi: 12.22.07 A jar of these preserves is nice for neighbors, friends, and coworkers. Package this with a pretty spreader. Serve on English muffins, crackers, or as a condiment for baked [favorites]. Chupa Note: add at least 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes or hot sauce for that hot 'n sweet touch. If you don't want to use alcohol, replace the liquor with 1/4 undiluted defrosted pear juice concentrate. Apple or grape juice concentrate might work too, though you'd lose some of the pear flavor.
