as part of the Hatch family Christmas tradition, glögg is made and enjoyed by all around the holidays. according to the internet, it's typically made with wine and actually means "mulled wine." this is the sacred Hatch family recipe, a booze-free winter warmer. it heats up your bones and keeps you on your toes.
glögg
2 cups loose black tea
10 cups water
3 cups pineapple juice
3 cups orange juice (juice of 3-4 lemons)
3/4 cups fresh lemon juice
1/2 tsp ground cloves
1 tsp whole cloves
2 tsp cinnamon
1 1/2 cups sugar
6 quarts water
mix tea and first ten cups of water. brew tea for about ten minutes and strain. add the remaining ingredients to the strained tea, stir well and bring to a boil. cook on low overnight or for a few hours to get the flavors really going.

a pizza pie
thank you for your patience during this blogging hiatus. I have been wrapped up in other activities, eating meals mostly out and not doing so much of the cooking. I have been visiting the farmers markets weekly and stocking up on mounds of fresh produce and then consuming it, but the cooking I've done as of late has been more of just an assembly of those ingredients, which creates good and edible food, just not exactly the sorts of things that have recipes that might inspire others to get working in the kitchen. And so I find myself with almost a month gone by and no new posts. eeek. not cool. baby steps to more cooking and more sharing. this is the first of such baby steps. a pizza creation, which will either bring you disgust or joy at the combination of toppings employed. especially if you are firmly "not a caper person", of which I can name three, you know who you are. herb trader joe's crust, capers, pineapple and red onions. sounds gross. tasted good. preconceived notions are often deceiving. nothing like a little life lesson tucked in a recipe blog. whatevs, like I said, baby steps.
If you do choose to make this the list is simple, herb pizza crust, any red sauce, grated mozzarella, sliced red onions, pineaple chunks and capers. and you've got yourself a meal.
