Baas centrale bank VS: gedagvaard door justitie
De directeur van de Amerikaanse centrale bank (Fed), Jerome Powell, zegt gedagvaard te zijn door het Amerikaanse ministerie van Justitie. In een videoverklaring vertelt hij dat de regering van president Trump dreigt met een strafrechtelijk onderzoek naar Powells verklaring in de Senaat over de renovatie van Fed-gebouwen.
Het project dat 2,5 miljard dollar kost werd door Trump als buitensporig bestempeld. Volgens Powell is de verklaring in de Senaat niet de echte reden voor de dagvaarding.
Hij spreekt van een voorwendsel om de centrale bank verder onder druk te zetten de rentetarieven te verlagen. "Deze ongekende actie moet worden gezien in de bredere context van de dreigementen en de aanhoudende druk van de regering." Trump heeft Powell herhaaldelijk bekritiseerd omdat de centrale bank de rente niet sneller verlaagt, iets wat de president graag wil.

Maultaschen
The origins of Germany’s Maultaschen are deliciously devious. Legend has it that, in the late Middle Ages, a lay brother named Jakob invented the stuffed pasta dumplings at the Maulbronn Monastery, a UNESCO World Heritage site founded in 1147 by Cistercian monks in southwest Germany.
One direct translation of Maultaschen is “mouth pockets,” though “Maul” could just as easily refer to Maulbronn. Maultaschen are usually square dumplings (though sometimes they're rolled) and can be fried in a pan or served in broth.
Commonly described as Germany’s version of Italian ravioli, they allegedly emerged as a way to use up an unexpected bounty of meat that Brother Jakob stumbled upon in the forest outside the monastery walls. The twist?

Tiquira
Indigenous Brazilians have fermented alcoholic beverages from the cassava root for thousands of years. These beer-like beverages go by names like cauim , caxiri , and tarubá .
Fermentation is an important step in cassava processing—the raw root has chemicals that can turn into cyanide in the human body. Native peoples found that a bit of human saliva and some naturally occurring yeast could eliminate these toxins and improve the nutritious value of the tuber.
When the technology of distillation arrived to the Munim River region (now in Maranhão), locals who already drank lightly alcoholic cassava beverages began to distill them. Tiquira was born.

Nectar Soda
Though Cincinnati is best known for breweries, another effervescent beverage has a long history in the Queen City: the nectar soda. Home to the oldest pharmacy college in the U.S.
west of the Alleghenies, the Eclectic Medical Institute (1845-1952), and Lloyd Brothers Pharmacists , Cincinnati was long on the forefront of the pharmaceutical industry. The city had a number of apothecaries with soda fountains, as well as confectioners serving countless carbonated concoctions—some claiming to cure a variety of ailments, and others simply providing customers with something sweet and refreshing to drink.
Enter the nectar soda. The flavor is a combination of vanilla and bitter almond, and the drink is pastel pink in color—a nod to the hue of almond flowers, according to Dann Woellert , a Cincinnati food historian, etymologist, and the author of Cincinnati Candy: A Sweet History .

Kitchen Dispatch: A Quest to Create the Perfect Pawpaw Ice Cream

As the weather got colder last week, I decided it was the perfect time to make pawpaw ice cream. It’s not that I needed a frozen treat; with Thanksgiving in the rearview, I wanted to bid a proper goodbye to fall.
And, for me, there’s no better symbol of the ephemeral beauty of the season than the pawpaw. I first wrote about this fruit, which grows wild across the Eastern United States, last year .
