Hi Joan,
The recipe below doesn't seem to be the correct one, but it was posted as a
reply to a request for the same espnzone recipe on a message board. It's the
only one that I could locate.

Apple Walnut Salad with Cranberry Vinaigrette

salt and pepper to taste
10 cups mixed salad greens, rinsed and dried
2 Red Delicious apples, cored and thinly sliced
Directions

on a baking sheet in a single layer. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes in the
preheated oven, or until lightly toasted.

mustard. Puree until smooth; gradually add oil, and season with salt and

Subject: old fashion stewed tomatoes
The stewed tomato recipe was made with 4 slices of buttered bread
cut into cubes. Then you put 2 slices of the buttered bread in the
bottom of the casserole dish, add whole, sliced or cubed tomatoes
with just a little of juice, don't remember the spices if any, the
rest of the bread on top and you cook it for how long and at what
temperature. The last few minutes you add cheese to the top so
it can melt.

Hi Steph,
I could not find a recipe for zhua fan anywhere. However, I did find an
article about food in Xinjiang which described the dish as:
"Breakfast eaters with hardier taste buds may prefer ``zhua fan'' or
``grabbed rice'' -- a concoction of rice, raisins, nuts and grated carrots
fried in swirling mutton fat that is eaten with the hands."
The full article about Xinjiang cuisine is at:
Xinjiang
"Pet" is an American milk company that produces, among other things, canned
evaporated milk. The "Pet" brand has been very popular in the U.S. for many
years, so popular that many recipes just say "Pet milk" instead of saying
"evaporated milk."
You can use any brand of evaporated milk that's available to you in New
Zealand in those recipes.
