Baked beans

Baked beans is a dish traditionally containing white beans that are parboiled and then, in the us, baked in sauce at low temperature for a lengthy period. in the united kingdom, the dish is sometimes baked, but usually stewed in sauce. canned baked beans are not baked, but are cooked through a steam process.baked beans originate in native american cuisine, and are made from beans indigenous to the americas. the dish was adopted and adapted by english colonists in new england in the 17th century and, through cookbooks published in the 19th century, spread to other regions of the united states and into canada. today, in the new england region of the united states, a variety of indigenous legumes are used in restaurants or in the home, such as jacob's cattle, soldier beans, yellow-eyed beans, and navy beans (also known as native beans).originally, native americans sweetened baked beans with maple syrup, a tradition some recipes still follow, but some english colonists used brown sugar beginning in the 17th century. in the 18th century, the convention of using american-made molasses as a sweetening agent became increasingly popular to avoid british taxes on sugar. boston baked beans use a sauce prepared with molasses and salt pork, a dish whose popularity has given boston the nickname "beantown".today, baked beans are served throughout the united states alongside barbecue foods and at picnics. beans in a brown sugar, sugar, or corn syrup sauce (with or without tomatoes) are widely available throughout the united states. bush brothers are the largest producer. after the american revolutionary war, independence day celebrations often included baked beans.canned baked beans are used as a convenience food; most are made from haricot beans (aka navy beans) in sauce. they may be eaten hot or cold, and straight from the can, as they are fully cooked. h. j. heinz began producing canned baked beans in 1886. in the early 20th century, canned baked beans gained international popularity, particularly in the united kingdom, where they have become a common part of an english full breakfast.

Moose

The moose (in north america) or elk (in eurasia) (alces alces) is a member of the new world deer subfamily and is the largest and heaviest extant species in the deer family. most adult male moose have distinctive broad, palmate ("open-hand shaped") antlers; most other members of the deer family have antlers with a dendritic ("twig-like") configuration. moose typically inhabit boreal forests and temperate broadleaf and mixed forests of the northern hemisphere in temperate to subarctic climates. hunting and other human activities have caused a reduction in the size of the moose's range over time. it has been reintroduced to some of its former habitats. currently, most moose occur in canada, alaska, new england (with maine having the most of the lower 48 states), new york state, fennoscandia, the baltic states, poland, kazakhstan, and russia. its diet consists of both terrestrial and aquatic vegetation. predators of moose include wolves, bears, humans and (rarely) wolverines. unlike most other deer species, moose do not form herds and are solitary animals, aside from calves who remain with their mother until the cow begins estrus (typically at 18 months after birth of the calf), at which point the cow chases them away. although generally slow-moving and sedentary, moose can become aggressive, and move quickly if angered or startled. their mating season in the autumn features energetic fights between males competing for a female.

Mussel

Mussel () is the common name used for members of several families of bivalve molluscs, from saltwater and freshwater habitats. these groups have in common a shell whose outline is elongated and asymmetrical compared with other edible clams, which are often more or less rounded or oval. the word "mussel" is frequently used to mean the bivalves of the marine family mytilidae, most of which live on exposed shores in the intertidal zone, attached by means of their strong byssal threads ("beard") to a firm substrate. a few species (in the genus bathymodiolus) have colonised hydrothermal vents associated with deep ocean ridges. in most marine mussels the shell is longer than it is wide, being wedge-shaped or asymmetrical. the external colour of the shell is often dark blue, blackish, or brown, while the interior is silvery and somewhat nacreous. the common name "mussel" is also used for many freshwater bivalves, including the freshwater pearl mussels. freshwater mussel species inhabit lakes, ponds, rivers, creeks, canals, and they are classified in a different subclass of bivalves, despite some very superficial similarities in appearance. freshwater zebra mussels and their relatives in the family dreissenidae are not related to previously mentioned groups, even though they resemble many mytilus species in shape, and live attached to rocks and other hard surfaces in a similar manner, using a byssus. they are classified with the heterodonta, the taxonomic group which includes most of the bivalves commonly referred to as "clams".

Pickled egg

Pickled eggs are typically hard boiled eggs that are cured in vinegar or brine. as with many foods, this was originally a way to preserve the food so that it could be eaten months later. pickled eggs have since become a favourite among many as a snack or hors d'œuvre popular in pubs, bars and taverns, and around the world in places where beer is served. after the eggs are hard boiled, the shell is removed and they are submerged in a solution of vinegar, salt, spices, and other seasonings. recipes vary from the traditional brine solution for pickles, to other solutions, which can impart a sweet or spicy taste. the final taste is largely determined by the pickling solution. the eggs are left in this solution from one day to several months. prolonged exposure to the pickling solution may result in a rubbery texture. a common practice is to puncture the egg with a toothpick to allow the pickling solution to penetrate to the egg's interior, but this is dangerous as it can introduce clostridium into the finished product. eggs prepared with this method have sometimes had high enough levels of botulinum toxin to cause illness in a human. pickled eggs may be served as part of a main course, hors d'œuvres, or garnishes.

Reindeer

The reindeer (rangifer tarandus), also known as the caribou in north america, is a species of deer with circumpolar distribution, native to arctic, subarctic, tundra, boreal, and mountainous regions of northern europe, siberia, and north america. this includes both sedentary and migratory populations. it is the only representative of the genus rangifer. herd size varies greatly in different geographic regions. r. tarandus varies in size and colour from the smallest subspecies, the svalbard reindeer, to the largest, the boreal woodland caribou. the north american range of caribou extends from alaska through the yukon, the northwest territories and nunavut into the boreal forest and south through the canadian rockies. the barren-ground caribou, porcupine caribou, and peary caribou live in the tundra, while the shy boreal woodland caribou prefer the boreal forest. the porcupine caribou and the barren-ground caribou form large herds and undertake lengthy seasonal migrations from birthing grounds to summer and winter feeding grounds in the tundra and taiga. the migrations of porcupine caribou herds are among the longest of any mammal. barren-ground caribou are also found in kitaa in greenland, but the larger herds are in alaska, the northwest territories, and nunavut.the taimyr herd of migrating siberian tundra reindeer (r. t. sibiricus) in russia is the largest wild reindeer herd in the world, varying between 400,000 and 1,000,000. what was once the second largest herd is the migratory boreal woodland caribou (r. t. caribou) george river herd in canada, with former variations between 28,000 and 385,000. as of january 2018, there are fewer than 9,000 animals estimated to be left in the george river herd, as reported by the canadian broadcasting corporation. the new york times reported in april 2018 of the disappearance of the only herd of southern mountain woodland caribou in the contiguous united states with an expert calling it "functionally extinct" after the herd's size dwindled to a mere three animals. after the last individual, a female, was translocated to a wildlife rehabilitation centre in canada, the woodland caribou was considered extirpated from the contiguous united states.some subspecies are rare and two have already become extinct: the queen charlotte islands caribou of canada and the east greenland caribou from east greenland. historically, the range of the sedentary boreal woodland caribou covered more than half of canada and into the northern states of the contiguous united states. woodland caribou have disappeared from most of their original southern range and were designated as threatened in 2002 by the committee on the status of endangered wildlife in canada (cosewic). environment canada reported in 2011 that there were approximately 34,000 boreal woodland caribou in 51 ranges remaining in canada (environment canada, 2011b). siberian tundra reindeer herds are also in decline, and rangifer tarandus is considered to be vulnerable by the iucn. arctic peoples have depended on caribou for food, clothing, and shelter, such as the caribou inuit, the inland-dwelling inuit of the kivalliq region in northern canada, the caribou clan in the yukon, the iñupiat, the inuvialuit, the hän, the northern tutchone, and the gwichʼin (who followed the porcupine caribou for millennia). hunting wild reindeer and herding of semi-domesticated reindeer are important to several arctic and subarctic peoples such as the duhalar for meat, hides, antlers, milk, and transportation. the sámi people (sápmi) have also depended on reindeer herding and fishing for centuries.: iv : 16 : iv  in sápmi, reindeer are used to pull a pulk, a nordic sled. male ("bulls") and female ("cows") reindeer can grow antlers annually, although the proportion of females that grow antlers varies greatly between population and season. antlers are typically larger on males. in traditional united states christmas legend, santa claus's reindeer pull a sleigh through the night sky to help santa claus deliver gifts to good children on christmas eve.
