Wine Insitute of New Orleans "W.I.N.O."





Well if you like to taste wine, here is a good place to go in N.O.L.A. You can get one, two or four ounces of any wine they have in stock. They use a smart card that tallies up your charges. They had a great selection of red and white wines, also some beers for people that do not like wine. Here is the link to find out more details www.winoschool.com

old skool treats


Just rediscovered a childhood favorite Hubig's pies. I was out in Kenner when I came across these. I wish they had them in Mob town.

Carmine:: A great ingredient for food products


I found this ingredient reading my Dannon All Natural yogurt. Carmine what the hell is that?? Since I'm one of those vegetarians I took a trip to wikipedia, this is what I found:

Carmine (IPA: /ˈkɑrmaɪn, -mɪn, -miːn/), also called Crimson Lake, Cochineal, Natural Red 4, C.I. 75470 or E120, is a pigment of a bright red color obtained from the carminic acid produced by some scale insects, such as the cochineal and the Polish cochineal, and is used as a general term for a particularly deep red color. Carmine is used in the manufacture of artificial flowers, paints, rouge, cosmetics, food additives, and crimson ink.

Carmine may be prepared from cochineal, by boiling dried insects in water to extract the carminic acid and then treating the clear solution with alum, cream of tartar, stannous chloride, or potassium hydrogen oxalate; the coloring and animal matters present in the liquid are thus precipitated. Other methods are in use; sometimes egg white, fish glue, or gelatine are added before the precipitation.
