Yummy or not :Almond Chocolate Poached Pears recipe.
Ingredients
1 (750 milliliter) bottle dry white wine
8 cups water
1/2 cup honey
1/2 teaspoon black peppercorns
1/2 teaspoon cloves
4 cardamom seeds
2 star anise
6 Bartlett pears, peeled
8 ounces premium dark chocolate
1/2 cup sliced California Almonds
Directions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Juice the lemon and orange. Put juice, wine, water, honey, black peppercorns, cloves, cardamom, star anise and bay leaf in a wide saucepan. Gently place the peeled pears into the liquid.
Make a circle of parchment paper that is 1/2-inch larger than the pot, and cover surface completely with the parchment paper. Be sure the pears are fully submerged, but not touching the bottom of the pot. Bring the poaching liquid and pears to a boil and then reduce the heat to just below a simmer.
While the pears are poaching, roast almonds in oven until golden brown, approximately 10 minutes.
Cook the pears until fork-tender. Gently transfer pears into a glass or ceramic bowl. Pour enough poaching liquid over pears to just cover. Cover and refrigerate until cool, preferably overnight.
Strain remaining poaching liquid and return to saucepan. Cook over high heat until a syrupy consistency is achieved or the syrup coats the back of a spoon. Chill until the pears are served.
In a double boiler, melt chocolate until smooth. Dip each cooled pear into the melted chocolate and then roll in sliced almonds. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet and refrigerate until chocolate is set, approximately 30 minutes. Lightly drizzle with reduced poaching liquid and serve at room temperature.

Yummy or not :Armenian Pizzas (Lahmahjoon) recipe.
Ingredients
1 pound lean ground lamb
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 cup chopped red onion
3 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 green bell pepper, chopped
1 tablespoon freshly ground cumin seed
1 teaspoon ground turmeric
1 teaspoon paprika
1 pinch fenugreek seeds, finely crushed (optional)
1 lemon wedge
1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes
2 tablespoons ketchup
1 cup chopped flat-leaf parsley
6 (6 inch) pita bread rounds
1/3 cup crumbled feta cheese (optional)
1 lime, cut into wedges
1 tablespoon chopped fresh mint
Directions
Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Season lamb with salt and pepper, and set aside.
Heat olive oil in large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion, garlic, and bell pepper and stir until just beginning to brown. Stir in the cumin, turmeric, paprika, and fenugreek.
Immediately add the ground lamb. Squeeze lemon wedge over lamb, and drop the peel into the mixture. Break up the meat and stir until it has browned. Remove lemon peel.
Stir in the tomatoes, ketchup, and parsley. Continue to simmer until most of the liquid has evaporated, 10 to 15 minutes. The mixture should be spreadable but not too wet or the pitas will become soggy.
Arrange pitas on a large baking sheet unless you are baking them directly on the oven rack. Spoon meat mixture onto pitas and smooth into an even layer to within 1/8 inch of the edge of the pita. Sprinkle feta cheese on the meat mixture.
Bake pitas until the edges are slightly crisp and meat is lightly browned but not dried out, about 10 to 20 minutes depending on whether pitas are on a baking sheet or on the oven rack. Squeeze lime lightly over the top, sprinkle with chopped mint and enjoy!
