Rainforest Plants - Brazil Nut
By [http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Tony_Mandarich]Tony Mandarich
Family: Lecythidaceae
Genus: Bertholletia
Species: excelsa
Common names: brazil nut, castania, castanheiro do para, para-nut, creamnut
General Description: The Brazil nut tree is a tall rainforest canopy tree. It is the only species in the genus Bertholletia. This tree grows primarily in forests with full canopies; it is enormous, reaching heights of 150 feet or more.
The Brazil nut tree is one of many similar species that illustrate the amazing ecosystem of the Amazon rainforest, in which plants and animals depend upon each other for survival. Specifically, this tree requires the carpenter bee for pollination of its flowers. It also depends on the agouti (a rodent living in Central America) for dispersing its seeds. This rodent has sharp teeth and strong jaws, cracks the nuts open and then carries them throughout the rainforest floor.
Brazil nut trees grow very slowly, taking as long as 10 to 30 years before producing nuts, and sometimes producing as many as 300 fruits when mature. The fruits of the Brazil nut trees are handpicked as they fall to the ground beginning in November of each year.
Location: The tree is called castanheiro do para in Brazil and is found throughout the Amazon rainforest in Brazil, Peru, Colombia, Venezuela, and Ecuador.
Uses: The Amazon depends on the Brazil nut tree for a healthy economy. Exporting Brazil nuts began with Dutch traders in the 1600s. Exportation from the Amazon rainforest is one of the most important sources of revenue for the region. The monetary value is second only to that of rubber. In addition, Brazil nut oil is an ingredient in skin creams because of its high selenium content (antioxidant benefits) and it ability to lubricate and hydrate the skin. Brazil nut tree bark is also used in an [http://www.paradiseearthonline.com/]herbal tea that may help in treatment of some liver problems.
The primary concern is the future of this important rainforest tree. If uncontrolled extraction and exportation of the Brazil nut continues, survival of both the agouti and of the Brazil nut tree itself will be threatened.

Cookies - Sweet Temptations
Cookies - Sweet Temptations
By [http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Ann_Krause]Ann Krause
Can we call cookies sweet temptations, you bet we can because they are, did you ever know anyone to turn down the offer of some cookies especially with a cup of coffee or a glass of cold milk.
You see sites on the web trying to lure you in with pictures of cookies and some seem to be steaming as they come from the oven, it’s too bad that they don’t have smell on the net.
Then you have your good old fashion cookie bakeries that you can smell from a block away so how can you possibly get lost getting there. I can also remember when I was a child and as my children would say back in the good old days waking up in the mornings before a holiday with the smells of fresh cookies in the oven permeating the entire house with the wonderful sweet smells that passers by on the street could probably smell as well.
I can also remember when we went visiting during holidays all the different types of cookies and the size of the cookie dishes that were laid out in front of you so you could eat your fill, everything was so delicious so yes I think we can call cookies sweet temptations.
Ann Marie Krause has been making cookies for over 30 years, at persent I am retired, for over 23 years I owned a Gourmet Bakery called The Cheese Confectioner.You can visit my site at http://www.annsgoodies.com

Neuhaus Chocolate
Neuhaus Chocolate
By [http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Reg_Ofori]Reg Ofori
Belgian Chocolate Pralines: The Successful Story of Jean Neuhaus
From the 18th century, the Belgian chocolate has risen in fame. In 1912, a chocolate genius Jean Neuhaus created a new procedure and increased its popularity ten-fold. He used a "couverteur" which is a specialized chocolate version. It is also the pralines cold shell. But it is different from the American sugary treats found in most candy shops. Chocolate pralines from Belgium are filled with varieties of flavored creams or nougats, such as hazelnut, fruit, more chocolate, or coffee. Some of the chocolatiers in the time of Neuhaus could duplicate his pralines complex flavors.
Jean Neuhaus' successful years were after the end of the First World War And this time, Louise Agostini, his wife made another breakthrough by creating the ballotin or praline box, significant type of pralines preciously made by hand. It has a very practical green and gold packaging embossed with letter "N". Because Jean never patented this ballotin, it became the design favored by all chocolate manufacturers in Belgium since its creation.
The creativity of Jean Neuhaus led to the development of new methods for applying a precise standard quality to all praline productions. They ensured that the finest ingredients are selected to produce chocolates of high quality. He became the unfaltering source of ideas for creating new pralines. Even the Royal Family of Belgium is one of his satisfied customers. In 1918, The Prince of Wales and Prince Leopold have visited the Neuhaus shop to try what everybody is talking about in town.
In 1923, the son-in-law of Jean Neuhaus Adelson de Grave was initiated in praline manufacturing and was taught the secret of the family's business. His creations also brought additional distinction to the Company. His son Pierre also contributed his genius by helping his father create Tentation and Caprice and opened other shops outside Brussels.
In 1978, the Chocolate Company was put under the management of Claude Poncelet and Jean-Jacques. Their goal of making it the world's most famous brand was clear to capture the foreign markets. Thus, more outlets were opened in Japan, Canada, Guadeloupe, Colombia, United States, and other capital cities in Europe.
In 1991, Neuhaus became the leader in the luxurious praline sector industry in Belgium as well as in Luxemburg. Their well-defined strategies for marketing and international networks kept it in maintaining an enviable position in the market. Modern technology investment also contributed to the success of the company, but one-third of praline productions remained handmade. In 2000, King Albert accredited Neuhaus as their supplier.
The Company has remained in the chocolate industry until today. The legacy of Jean Neuhaus continues to make the best Belgian chocolate pralines. Their technical advantage among other chocolate manufacturers is the couverteur storage before use. In the process of making chocolates, the fine grinding of cocoa beans is first done. Afterwards, it is mixed with cocoa butter and sugar and then smoothened through tempering. Adding heat during the process must be carefully done. Many chocolate companies received the chocolates in solid forms. It means they have to reheat it to become usable. But Belgian chocolate companies often received the chocolates in a heated tanker after the tempering process. Chocolates that are not cooled retain most of its aroma.
Belgian chocolates can be expensive. However, those people who have tasted it revealed that nothing can compare with its true quality. And this is what Belgian chocolates are known for throughout history.
