  • 4 tsp flour
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp white pepper

Jambalaya

  • 1 1/2 cup chopped green pepper
  • 1 1/2 cup chopped onion
  • 1 1/2 cup chopped celery
  • 4 oz. (1 stick) butter
  • 8 oz. chopped ham (Cure 81)
  • 3 or 4 sliced Andouille sausage
  • 2 cup uncooked rice
  • 4 cups soup stock or water
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp dried mustard
  • 1 tsp thyme
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp red pepper
  • 1 tsp white pepper
  • 1 tsp salt

This cooks well in a cast iron dutch oven or something with a lid to get the rice cooked.

Get the pan hot – med-high. Add half a stick of butter and fry the meat. When it begins to brown add half of the spices. When it’s browned set the meat aside. Don’t worry if the sausage is done, it will cook when the rice simmers.

Add a half stick of butter and the veggies. As the onions and peppers begin to soften add half the spices and continue to fry. After a couple more minutes add the uncooked rice and continue to stir fry. If you get sticky brown stuff on the bottom of the pan that’s good flavor up ahead.

Add the soup stock and meat, then gently scrape the brown stuff on the bottom of the pan until it has dissolved. Then simmer covered until rice is cooked.

The Day-Spring of Youth

This book is a presentation of yoga, but not the yoga Westerners would be accustomed to. We think yoga is a form of physical exercise similar to Pilates. This would be Hatha yoga most likely.

This is an initiation into Eastern yoga which is very much of a spirutual nature. Yoga means union (with divinity). The teacher’s intent is to introduce Eastern yoga in a form that can be assimilated by Westerners.

There are many useful techniques and tips to help us progress physically and spiritually. The biggest difference between this book and other books on spiritualism is that the teacher is a Master.
