TIDBITS® CHOWS DOWN ON

INTERESTING EDIBLESby Sarah Bates

Food nourishes your body just like Tidbits nourishes your brain! Get a double helping with these bits and bites that you might not have known about the things we eat and drink!• Did you know there are over 300 different

varieties of honey in North America alone? Honey, a natural energy restorer, was not only used by ancient cultures but it has been found in ancient Egyptian tombs. There have also been discoveries of 4,500 year old Egyptians carvings which are some of the earliest depictions of bee keeping.

• Do you know what a pluot is? It’s a complex hybrid between a plum and an apricot. It’s traits tend to be more plum-like, with a smooth skin. They are very sweet and intense in flavor and very juicy. They are not to be confused with an aprium, which is also a plum/apricot hybrid that is 1/4th plum and 3/4th apricot. Another plum/apricot hybrid is the plumcot. What’s a plum+apricot+peach? That one’s called a Peacotum.

• The island nation of Grenada in the Caribbean was named for the pomegranate. So was grenadine syrup and the grenade. All come from the Latin root word punica granatum,which means pomegranate.

TIDBITS® LOOKS AT

THE COLOR PURPLEby Kathy Wolfe

Mix a little blue light and a little red light, and there you have it – purple! This week, Tidbits examines this “royal” color, and looks at eve-rything from fruits to dinosaurs! • Purple light doesn’t actually exist in its

own wavelength, only as a combination of blue and red. Don’t confuse purple with violet, which is a spectral color, meaning it appears as a single wavelength of light.

• Purple has long been associated with roy-alty, mostly because they were the only ones who could afford it! The pigment used to color the robes of the royals came from an unusual gastropod sea snail, a mollusk that secreted a milky colorless substance that changed to a long-lasting dye once exposed to the air. It was this Bolinus brandaris creature, habitating primarily in the Mediter-ranean Sea, that the ancients dating back to the time of Alexander the Great used to cre-ate the color known as Tyrian, or Imperial, purple.

THE COLOR PURPLE (continued):• As children, we cranked our jack-in-the-box and sang of the monkey

chasing the weasel around the mulberry bush, but, in truth, mulberries don’t grow on bushes! Rather, they grow on a subtropical tree found primarily in parts of Asia. These trees can grow to heights of 49 feet and folk medicine touts its medicinal properties. The sweet fruit is rich in anthocyanins, which function as powerful antioxidants.

• While some language experts maintain that there is no English word that rhymes with “purple,” poet Robert Burns used the word “curple” in one of his missives. This unusual word referred to “the small of the waist before the flare of the hips.” Not nearly as eloquent as Scotland’s favorite bard, in his 1964 hit “Dang Me,” country artist Roger Miller crooned, “Roses are red, violets are purple, Sugar is sweet and so is maple surple.”

• Most Americans have watched the election night returns on television and followed the map’s breakdown of red (Republican) and blue (Democrat) states. But just what is a purple state? Just as equal amounts of red and blue produce purple, a “purple state” has a relatively equal balance between Republicans and Democrats.

• Many Jimi Hendrix fans consider his 1967 hit “Purple Haze” his signature song. Hendrix claimed he received his inspiration for the song from a dream in which he was walking under the sea, while others speculate that the “haze” was a result of the hallucinogenic substances Hendrix ingested.

• Whether he was known as, or formerly known as, rock star Prince had a winner in his 1984 album, Purple Rain, a compilation of music that went platinum 13 times. Entertainment Weekly ranked it as the Number One album of the past 25 years. Minneapolis-born Prince Rogers Nelson used an unusual, unpronounceable symbol O(+>) from 1993 to 2000 to represent his name, but most folks just called him The Artist Formerly Known as Prince.

THE COLOR PURPLE (continued):

• In 1958, musician Sheb Wooley wrote a peculiar little song about a monster – the “one-eyed, one-horned flying purple people eater” – who descended to Earth. Who could have known that this composition would turn gold only three weeks after its release! Within a month, sales were at three million records. Ten years later, Wooley’s work contributed to the new nickname of the purple-jerseyed defensive line of the Minnesota Vikings, which included Jim Marshall, Carl Eller, Gary Larsen, and Alan Page. These front four played together on the gridiron for seven seasons, including the 1969 Pro Bowl game.

• At each one of Babe Ruth’s birthday parties for nearly 10 years, a popular Big Band performed his favorite ballad, the 1933 hit “Deep Purple.” Thirty-five years later, a group of British musicians, including guitarist Ritchie Blackmore, were preparing to make it big in the industry. When Blackmore’s grandmother heard about the new group, she asked her grandson if they would be performing one of her favorites, “Deep Purple,” and the heavy metal band of the same name was born. Their 1972 hit “Smoke on the Water” was based on the band’s true experience of watching a casino burn to the ground on the shores of Lake Geneva, Switzerland.

• If you’re a pool player, you already know that the solid “4” ball and the striped “12” balls are purple. Pool balls were originally crafted from wood, graduating to clay and ivory before the invention of celluloid, and Bakelite and acrylic plastics. Ivory was an impractical source, as only three or four balls could be fashioned from one tusk.

• If you’re chewing on an Empress, President, Stanley, Tragedy, or Damson, you’re eating one of the many varieties of a purple plum. A plum is a drupe, which describes any thin-skinned fruit containing a hard stone in the middle.

• So what in the world is a plumcot? It’s the result of a breeder crossing an apricot with a plum. This hybrid is half apricot and half plum, while an aprium is 75% apricot and 25% plum, and a pluot is 75% plum and 25% apricot.

• Although best known for his presidency and authorship of the Declaration of Independence, Thomas Jefferson was a devoted horticulturist. Thanks to an 1806 gift from a friend in France, we now dine on eggplant, an item that Jefferson cultivated in the gardens at his Monticello estate.

• Author and illustrator Gelett Burgess was 29 years old in 1895 when he penned his nonsensical ditty, “I Never Saw a Purple Cow.” Most of us will agree with Burgess that we’d “rather see than be one!”

• In 1987, when Dallas, Texas mother Sheryl Leach wanted to see more positive television programming for her young son, she conceived the idea of a jolly purple Tyrannosaurus Rex. Her creation, dubbed Barney, happily sang and danced his way through educational information. However, not everyone was as impressed with the sociable dinosaur as his young audience – TV Guide added the program to its List of the 50 Worst TV Shows of All Time.

HOLIDAY BONUS…During Holidays, Fondues Do Double Duty

What better way to get into the festive mood than with a fondue party? Derived from the French verb “fondre,” meaning “to melt,” fondue originated in Switzerland and was a practical way to use up hardened, old cheeses. During the ‘50s, the fondue’s peasant status was upgraded to become a popular dinner party draw.

And, why not? It’s so simple and delicious. The fondue pot, along with a mix of sweet and savory crudités, also creates a beautiful buffet centerpiece. Intersperse assorted candles and colorful, interestingly textured whole fruit, vegetables and greens between small, arranged crudité platters to add delicious drama.

Both fondue recipes below serve four, but they can easily be doubled or tripled.

JARLSBERG FONDUE2 cups shredded Jarlsberg cheese1 tablespoon all-purpose flour1 cup dry white wine (or unsweetened apple juice)1 large clove garlic, minced2 tablespoons apricot brandy (or apricot nectar)1/4 teaspoon saltDash of nutmeg and pepper

Assorted Dippers: large cubed herbed croutons; shelled, deveined cooked shrimp; mini meatballs; cooked, sliced sausage or kielbasa; whole button mushrooms; red and green pepper rings; asparagus; broccoli- or cauliflower florets; green beans; cherry tomatoes; carrot sticks; pear and apple slices.

In bowl, toss cheese with flour. In fondue pot, heat wine with garlic until bubbles rise to surface. DO NOT BOIL. Add 1/2 cup cheese, stirring constantly until melted. Repeat until all the cheese has been added and melted. DO NOT LET MIXTURE BOIL. Stir in brandy, salt, nutmeg and pepper. Keep fondue mixture hot while serving. (If mixture thickens, add small amount of additional wine or juice and stir well.) Pass the fondue forks and assorted “dippers.” Serves 4.

DARK CHOCOLATE CHERRY FONDUE12 ounces of dark chocolate (chips or roughly chopped if from a block) 8 ounces of heavy cream2 ounces diced dried cherries1 tablespoon Amaretto or a cherry-flavored liqueurPinch of salt

Warm the cream over moderate heat until tiny bubbles show and almost begins to boil. Whisk in chocolate until completely smooth. Transfer to fondue pot and keep warm. Serve with chunks of apple and banana, strawberries, graham crackers, marshmallows, whole almonds, dried apricots, candied ginger and orange slices. Tip: If mixture becomes too thick (stiff), stir in a bit more cream.
