“Another article of cuisine that offends the bowels of unused Britons is garlic. Not uncommonly in southern climes an egg with a shell on is the only procurable animal food without garlic in it. Flatulence and looseness are the frequent results.” |
| Dr. T. K. Chambers, A Manuel of Diet In Health and Disease (1875) |

We plan, we toil, we suffer - in the hope of what? A camel-load of idol's eyes? The title deeds of Radio City? The empire of Asia? A trip to the moon? No, no, no, no. Simply to wake just in time to smell coffee and bacon and eggs. |

Herb Tip |
Food is an important part of a balanced diet. |

Heat broth in pressure cooker over medium-high heat. Add garlic,
stirring continually, adding more water if necessary to keep from
burning. After a minute or two, add leeks and continue cooking, still
stirring for another minute. Add the carrots, celery, mushrooms,
lentils, boiling water, rosemary, thyme, bay leaves, and red pepper
flakes.
Lock lid in place. Over high heat, bring to a high pressure. Lower
the heat just enough to maintain high pressure and cook for 7
minutes. Allow the pressure to come down naturally or use a
quick-release method. Remove the lid, tilting it away from you to
allow any excess steam to escape. If the lentils are not quite
tender, either return to high pressure for a few more minutes or
replace (but do not lock) the lid and simmer until the lentils are
done.
Remove the bay leaves. Stir in the roasted red bell peppers,
parsley, just enough vinegar to bring up the flavors, and salt and
pepper to taste.
Serves 6-8
