To Bring Out The Flavor of Mexican Shrimp, you need little more than simple ingredients like lemon and lime, or olive oil and garlic. Mexican Shrimp have no business in a complicated dish. They’re more of the bare-it-all type, as it would seem chefs are too. These days, it’s about pairing it down to simple, elegant creations. Hence, the new naked cuisine.

Cranberry Orange Sauced Sweet Potatoes 6 servings Ingredients:
6 medium sweet potatoes or yams 1/4 cup CRISCO all-vegetable shortening or 1/4 CRISCO stick or CRISCO Oil 1/4 cup packed light brown sugar 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/4 cup fresh orange juice 1/4 cup water 1-1/4 cups fresh cranberries, rinsed 1/2 teaspoon cornstarch mixed with 2 tablespoons cold water
Preparation: Preheat oven to 400ºF. Wash sweet potatoes and pat dry. Prick with a fork, place in a shallow baking dish and bake at 400ºF for 40 to 50 minutes or until soft. During the last 10 minutes of baking, prepare sauce. Melt Crisco in a medium saucepan (or place oil in saucepan).

Top each with cranberry sauce. Recipe from Crisco.com

 Natalie Maclean: Wine Picks for November Our friend Natalie MacLean who was recently named the World’s Best Drink Writer, offers a FREE wine e-newsletter with wine picks, articles and humor at www.nataliemaclean.com Over the next few months, she will share with us her Wine Picks of the Month. November Picks If you'd like to receive Natalie’s Vintages notes before each release, please sign-up for her weekly e-mail newsletter using this short form. Natalie’s Vintages picks are part of her newsletter that will help you get value for your money when you buy wine, make choices from restaurant wine lists, match wine with food and chuckle over the lighter side of wine (topics such as embarrassing wine situations and wine scenes in the movies). There are no ads and your e-mail address will be kept confidential. Natalie does this because she enjoys the occasional feedback she receives from those on her list.
