Check done-ness by unwrapping (be careful for steam) and piercing the center of the beet with a paring knifeif the knife meets no resistance, the beets are finished cooking.Meanwhile, combine the pistachios in a small bowl with the granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon of water, and a pinch of salt. Place the pistachios on a small baking sheet, sprinkle with the turbinado sugar, and toast for 10 to 12 minutes (in a375 degree Fahrenheit oven, either by themselves or with the beets), or until caramelized and golden. Allow the pistachios to cool completely on a rack.Wait until thebeets are able to be handled (they will be easier to peel when they are still slightly warm). Peel gently with fingers, remove root and tail,and slice into half-moons or wedges.Cut a thin "X" on the bottom of each peach. Place the peaches in a bowl and cover completely with boiling water. Allow the peaches to blanch in the hot water for at least 5 minutes, or until the peel is easily removable.

The fig is also a fertility symbol and the Arab association with male genitals is so strong that the original word 'fig' is considered improper.

Food Joke

The Passover test [My thanks to Jeff G for the following] Sean is waiting for a bus when another man joins him at the bus stop. After 20 minutes of waiting, Sean takes out a sandwich from his lunch box and starts to eat. But noticing the other man watching, Sean asks, "Would you like one? My wife has made me plenty." "Thank you very much, but I must decline your kind offer," says the other man, "I’m Rabbi Levy." "Nice to meet you, Rabbi," says Sean, "but my sandwiches are alright for you to eat. They only contain cheese. There’s no meat in them." "It’s very kind of you," says Rabbi Levy, "but today we Jews are celebrating Passover. It would be a great sin to eat a sandwich because during the 8 days of Passover, we cannot eat bread. In fact it would be a sin comparable to the sin of adultery." "OK," says Sean, "but it’s difficult for me to understand the significance of what you’ve just said." Many weeks later, Sean and Rabbi Levy meet again. Sean says, "Do you remember, Rabbi, that when we last met, I offered you a sandwich which you refused because you said eating bread on Passover would be as great a sin as that of adultery?" Rabbi Levy replies, "Yes, I remember saying that." "Well, Rabbi," says Sean, "that day, I went over to my mistress’s apartment and told her what you said. We then tried out both the sins, but I must admit, we just couldn’t see the comparison."
