Food Facts!• Somewhere around $700 a pound, depending
on the type and the market, saffron is the most expensive spice in the world.
• The pineapple is historically a symbol of hospitality...so is the mint plant.
• There are over 30 species of mint...the two most popular are Peppermint and Spearmint.
• Introducing a cold liquid to mashed potatoes and over beating the potatoes are the leading reasons why mashed potatoes sometimes have the consistency of glue. To solve that problem mash the potatoes by hand with a potato masher or ricer and use a warm liquid. This may leave some lumps but that just proves they are homemade!
