"Baseball Soup" --Plymouth's Portuguese Comfort Food

Plenty of fresh kale and spicy Portuguese sausage with a flavorful broth and small pasta We spent a huge part of our growing up years in Plymouth, Massachusetts. There were the expected chowders, lobster rolls and corn breads, and lots of Italian American markets full of all the Italian food you could think of. But there is also a very vibrant and distinct Portuguese tradition in Plymouth, and it certainly comes through in much of the food we all came to know and love. No trip downtown was complete without stopping at one of the bakeries and getting a linguica roll, a long white yeast roll with chunks of grilled juicy linguica, a Portuguese pork sausage, baked inside. There is also the mysteriously named Baseball Soup , full of kale and rounds of chouriso sausage. It is an item you could get at some restaurants, but probably was more of a staple in many, many Plymouth homes. My Dad got a recipe from the chef at the now-closed 1620 restaurant that was on Samoset and Water street...

Pollo Borracho AKA Drunken Chicken

A wonderful, easy dish to make for a large gathering of people, spicy, but not too much, all simmered in one big skillet. Add some rice and black beans and you have a feast! Pollo Boraccho Serves 4 generously 2 Tbl. veg. oil 2-1/2 to 3 lb. chicken thighs, with skin and bone in 1 white onion, thinly sliced 3 garlic cloves, chopped 14-1/2 oz. can of diced tomatoes, undrained 1 cup beer, like Dos Equis or an amber ale 1 Tbl. oregano 3 pickled jalapenos, sliced, or to taste 2 Tbl. of the vinegar from the jalapenos 1/2 tsp. salt pepper to taste Chopped cilantro to garnish Choose a large skillet or dutch oven with a lid, that will hold all the chicken.

Add the garlic and the tomatoes, and cook for 10 minutes, making sure you scrape up all the bits from the bottom of the pa...

Hopi Tacos---Fry Bread

Fry Bread Topped with Chili/beans and taco toppings We lived in Tucson for a long time and one of our favorite places to visit was the San Xavier Mission on the Tohono O'Odham Reservation. We often got the fry bread sold in the plaza across from the mission. You could get it sugared or topped with any and all taco toppings you wanted. Years earlier in Plymouth, we learned how to make fry bread from Hartman Lomawaima's mom Elsa, and from then on we were in love. I will offer up one of the better fry bread recipes I have found, and can be made with all pantry items. Then just top anyway you like. This recipe comes from a cook book titled "Cocina de la Familia" by Marilyn Tausend. Fry Bread 4 c. all purpose flour 2 tsp. baking powder 1-1/2 tsp salt 4 Tbl solid vegetable shortening (you can use butter if you don't like vegetable shortening) 1-1/2 to 2 c. warm water about 3 cups vegetable oil for frying Sift all dry ingredients into a me...
