    There was something just a couple days ago. I see more e-mail stuff
    from Bill than echo posts.

    When I, often, develop electronic verbal diarrhea I usually make both
    of you the victims.

    And I return the favour from time to time - when I stumble on something "shareable" that would be off-topic here.

    Never made this. I have, however, made C-Ration Stew. Bv)=

    Replying to a message of Dave Drum to Dale Shipp:

    Huh? I thought Michael's sister died of cancer some years ago. I
    remember he was pretty torn up about it.

    I seem to remember a discussion in here many years ago (like in the
    early naughties) where Michael did discuss his sister's death and yes,
    he was quite distraught about it. I can't really trust my memory sometimes though so I may be wrong.

    That matches my recollection. I don't remember the specific cancer -
    only the it was generally 100% fatal and "fast-acting". Probably it was pancreatic cancer - which has claimed several of my relatives and
    friends.

    That rings familiar also. I have to be careful as I am at high risk for pancreatic cancer as well as chronic lymphocitic (?) leukemia. CLL runs in
    my family.

    I did the DNA test offered from "23 and Me" after my B-I-L (who is very (notoriously so) cheap) told me of a way to get Medicare to pay for it.
    Turns out that I am at risk for breast cancer. After I quit laughing
    and dried my eyes a little voice told me to check. And, yes, guys can
    get breast cancer - even though they can't nurse babies. But, it's
    pretty rare - fortunately.

    Title: Pork Roasted w/Tangerine Peel & Thyme
    Categories: Pork, Herbs, Citrus, Poultry
    Yield: 6 Servings

    3 lb Center-cut pork loin roast
    1 tb Fine-grated tangerine rind *
    2 ts Fresh thyme leaves
    3/4 ts Salt
    1/2 ts Cumin
    1/4 ts Black pepper
    14 1/2 oz Can chicken broth
    1/2 c Fresh tangerine juice
    3 tb All-purpose flour
    1/4 ts Fresh ground black pepper
    Fresh thyme sprigs; (opt)

    Set the oven @ 320ºF/160ºC.

    Trim and discard any excess fat from the pork loin.
    Place it on a wire rack in a 13" X 9" baking pan.

    In a small bowl, combine tangerine rind, thyme, 1/2
    teaspoon salt, the cumin, and pepper. Rub the mixture
    evenly over all sides of the pork and set aside in the
    refrigerator for 15 minutes.

    Add the chicken broth to the baking pan and roast the
    pork, uncovered, for 2 hours. When the pork is done,
    transfer it to a cutting board and let stand for 15
    minutes.

    In a one-cup measuring cup or small bowl, combine
    tangerine juice, flour, pepper, and the remaining 1/4
    teaspoon salt.

    Remove the wire rack from the baking pan. Stir the
    tangerine mixture into the broth remaining in the baking
    pan. Add enough water to the liquid in the pan to get
    1 1/2 cups of liquid. Heat the mixture to boiling,
    stirring constantly, until it is thickened and bubbly.

    Pour the gravy into a small pitcher. Slice the pork and
    arrange it on a serving platter. Garnish the pork with
    thyme sprigs and serve with the gravy.

    * When choosing tangerines, look for fruit that is heavy
    for its size with a skin that has no soft or puffy spots.
    Fruit with a deep yellow-orange or almost red luster
    indicates freshness, maturity & good flavour. Tangerines
    can stay fresh up to a month when stored loose in the
    refrigerator.
