Sunnys Pear And Ginger Marinade Recipes

Steps:

• Add the apples (seeds and all), cranberry juice, ginger and cinnamon stick to a large pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and steep on medium until the apples are mushy, about 25 minutes. Strain the contents of the pot using a fine-mesh sieve and a moist paper towel or cheesecloth. Do not press anything through the sieve. Allow to drip to about 2 cups of liquid. Discard the solids.
• Wipe the pot clean or rinse with water. Pour all but 1/4 cup of the liquid back into the pot and add the sugar. Cook on medium high until the sugar dissolves.
• Add the gelatin to the reserved 1/4 cup liquid and stir. Stir this into the pot and remove from the heat. Let cool until just warm.
• Coat the inside of four 8-ounce ridged party cups (or several shot glass-size party cups) with cooking spray (you may want to double the cups so you don't warp them). Once the liquid has cooled a bit, divide among the cups. Place on a tray and refrigerate until firm, about 3 hours.
• To unmold, dunk the sides of the cups in warm water and wiggle out the jelly.

Steps:

• In a large dry pan on medium heat, add the almonds and constantly toss until they become shiny and slightly golden. Remove to a plate to cool.
• In the same large pan on medium-high heat, add the olive oil. When the oil begins to swirl, add the green beans, a pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper. Toss to coat while cooking until bright green, about 5 minutes.
• Add the preserves, soy sauce, ginger and garlic to the pan. Toss to coat and cook until the sauce has soaked into the green beans. Serve with a sprinkle of the toasted almonds.

Steps:

• Throw all ingredients in a Ziplock bag with your steaks.
• Refrigerate overnight (tastes best), or for at least two hours.
• Cook your steaks however you want.
• Some people will probably scream unsanitary, but I like to boil down the marinade until it thickens in the same pan I cook my steaks in, and serve it as a pan sauce. I'm not dead yet!
• Enjoy!

Take the canner off the heat and let water stop boiling before removing jars. Carefully remove jars and let sit. As they cool, the jars will seal themselves with a"pop". Label, and store in cool, dry, dark place.
• To prepare the jars, I first wash them in the dishwasher, or in the sink with very hot, soapy water, then rinse them well and put them in a warm oven, taking the jars out one or two at a time when filling them.
• I soak the lids in very hot water and put them immediately from the hot water onto the filled jars, making sure the rims of the jars are clean, then add the rings (which I've also soaked in hot water) and screw them on the jars just finger tight.
