Food Tip
Keep the hot foods hot and the cold foods cold. Use chafing dishes or other heated servers which keep already hot foods at a temperature of at least 140F. Do not leave high-risk foods out for longer than 2 hours. Make sure to stir the food frequently if the heating source does not cover the entire bottom of the dish. Cold foods should be set on ice. Never mix fresh food with foods that have already been out for serving.

Food Tip
Although conventinal advice has been to use plastic cutting boards instead of wooden ones, there is an opinion that wooden surfaces may actually be better at preventing bacterial growth than plastic surfaces, which seem to harbor them. Whether you choose wood or plastic, use separate boards for raw and cooked foods, and make sure to clean and sterilize after each use. To sanitize cutting boards, wash with warm, soapy water, and then wash again with a solution of 2 to 3 teaspoons of household bleach in one quart of warm water. Rinse with plain hot water

Black Beans In Spicy Tamarind Sauce Directions

Pick over and wash the beans. Soak them overnight in cold water to
cover.

Soak the tamarind pulp in 2 cups hot water in a nonmetallic bowl for
at least 1 hour. Squeeze the pulp with fingers to extract as much
juice as possible. Strain, pressing the pulp. Discard the residue
and reserve the strained juice and pulp.

Heat the oil in a heavy, shallow pan. Add the onions and cook,
stirring frequently, until they turn almost reddish brown, 10 to 12
minutes. Add the ginger and garlic and cook for 5 minutes longer,
stirring constantly and scraping the bottom of the pan. Add the
chile pepper, cumin and turmeric, and cook for 10 or 15 seconds. Stir
in the tomatoes and let them cook until they form a sauce and fat
separates out.

Drain the beans and add to the pan along with 2 cups water. Cover and
simmer until the beans are almost done. Check the water level from
time to time, and if the b@beans look dry, add small amounts of hot
water.

When the beans have finished cooking, there should be plenty of
sauce. Stir in the tamarind, cover and simmer until the beans are
very tender. Stir in the roasted cumin seeds, garam masala, salt and
1/2 cup of the cilantro leaves. Cover the pan and let rest for at
least 10 minutes. Reheat and serve garnished with remaining cilantro
leaves.

NOTE: Tamarind is available in cake form at Indian markets.
