[Gnu-darwin-distribution] [Michael L. Love: proclus on Blogger] Michael L. Love: Pomegranate nut fudge ...

[proclus <pr...@gn...>]

Healthy pomegranate nut fudge with blueberries is the latest variation
on the weekend fudge indulgence, but it is also a wonderful component
of a good diet. Cocoa lovers can add a serving of peanut butter to the
fudge, and the portion is expanded to 4 squares. You will not be
disappointed, but remember that you have used your nut serving for the
day! Pecans and walnuts add a delightful texture. A bit of fresh
squeezed orange juice enhances the chocolate flavor considerably, but
it also takes the edge off of the secret ingredient, a dash of fresh
ground pepper. If you add pepper and citrus juice, don't forget to make
a small amount of fudge, because it should be eaten right away, not a
problem for most people I should think ;-}. I substituted pomegranate
juice concentrate for agave nectar, which adds enormously to the
healthful polyphenolic content of the fudge, and remarkably, the large
punicalagin tannin molecules are known to be absorbed into the blood
stream and exert their beneficial effect in the body. The pomegranate
concentrate also makes for sweet fudge, tangy, and tasty! If you are
interested in the recipe, here is the link.
