Voting Rus!

In this post we will look into an enigmatic expression pronounced in Chapter XXV of the second part of Don Quixote that goes unnoticed for many readers, and more, for some scholars of the work writing their notes in different reissues do not pay attention we should.

But first we must remember the time for action: Don Quixote and Sancho accompanied by a cousin of licensed skilled -Appeared in the cap. XIX - were going to spend the night at a chapel when they found the road to a character full of spears and halberds, which drew the attention of the protagonist:

"Good man, stop, it seems that you are going with more diligence than the male is necessary.

"I can not stop, sir," replied the man, because the weapons you see here I have to serve tomorrow, and so it forced me not to stop, and God. But if you desire to know what I carry in the sale that is above the chapel I sleep tonight, and if you do this same road, there I find, where I will tell you wonders. And to God again.

And since Don Quixote was curious about these things and more weapons, sent from the sale without rest in the chapel, but soon made a brief stop for a drink of water. Finally our friends come to the sale and are aware of history, "brayed" was behind the character, after which, suddenly enters a strange new character for sale:

... and in this, came through the door of the inn a man dressed all in camuza, stockings, breeches and doublet, and with a loud voice said: "Sir

host inn is there? Coming here the divining ape and the show of freedom of Melisendra.

- such body, "said the innkeeper, here is the Master Pedro! ...

........................................ ............

... has many days that goes by this Mancha de Aragon Melisendra teaching an altarpiece, liberated by the famous Don Gaiferos, which is one of the best and most well represented stories of many years now in this realm have been . also brings with it a more rare Monkey skill that was among monkeys, or figured among men, because if you ask something, understand what is asked and then jumps on the shoulders of his master, and llegándosele the ear, says the answer to what you ask, and Master Peter declares course, and the former things says a lot more than they are to come; and although not all is right in all times, in the most not wrong, so that makes us believe he has the devil in the body.

Don Quixote with great curiosity decided to try such powers of the monkey and ordered Sancho to betray him both real Master Peter, which accounted for the monkey and said:

Lord, this animal does not respond or gives notice of things to come, knows something of the past, and the present, somewhat.

Voting Rus, "said Sancho , I do not give a farthing because I say what happened to me!, Because who can know better than me mesmo? And pay me because I say what I know, would be a great folly, but he knows these things, here are my two reals, and tell me what does Mr cute now my wife Teresa Panza, and what entertains ... .

Now we have seen Sancho swore that under normal circumstances would have to be: a vow to God! but why Rus why this vote? What is Rus? , or rather where is Rus?

Well, to find out we will pay attention to two items after the action described, first remember that the players were going to rest in a chapel without a name, this could be a more minor figure in the case we did not have the second piece of our puzzle, and is a clear indication of the geographical location of the region that are moving at the time the actors:. .. it is many days walking through this Mancha de Aragon .

And looking and looking for a chapel and Rus in the region of the Mancha de Aragon (called to the eastern part of the English Channel halfway between Albacete and Cuenca) the search is paying off. Equilicuá! Mancha Cuenca found in a chapel-shrine dedicated to Our Lady of Rus, and it indicates is that as the Real Academia de la Lengua: Rus is toponym - creek that runs through San Clemente - and last manchego.

Already solved the mystery of that exclamation no accident that Sancho says. Cervantes once again plays hide and seek with their readers, leaving little clues to the places they visit the characters: A chapel, La Mancha, Aragón and Rus vote! are the elements that this time we stop to intuit the exact location of the adventures that occurred in those chapters.

Chilean Kitchen, a kid in cookery


Roast kid and steaks. Tamelcura 2010. Anabella Photo

If just last summer had the opportunity to see the Chilean television, you may have noticed that much of the news devoted several minutes to display different regions of our country, with considerable emphasis on the proper foods and festivals each site, inviting viewers to tour the country and stressing the benefits of the products and the ways in which these are prepared in each location.

With this even in the retina and other more recent things, one can see that little by little it has been visible progress in national food heritage and many regional products.

no longer just know casseroles, corn cakes, tamales and empanadas, is much more than "re know." I mentioned last year that "It has been demonstrated in the summers that foods play an important role in the development process of these communities, but should extend beyond the holiday period."
(see Chile, regional cuisines in the summer.).

The Kid, an earring ...


Kid to the pot. Ovalle 2010. Photo Anabella.

many years, has drawn my attention to the fact that we still see lots of goats particularly in the north of our country is so difficult to find the prescription preparations for goat meat.

A nearly impossible mission is to find the meat in supermarkets and butchers across Chile. What if you can find is the goat cheese, though there are in the public imagination the idea that consumption is dangerous and could be harmful. Idea that fortunately has been reversed because there was greater concern for preparing the rigorous standards of hygiene and improved sanitary control adds to this that there are also more likely to find in supermarkets goat cheese produced by industry.

Today I just checked a story in a national newspaper reporting a project in the Coquimbo region, through which grant a "seal of quality" to 10 factories that receive this certification can increase your sales.

well in recent years has promoted the production of food of goat's milk ricotta or cottage cheese and yogurt. Having now available varieties of goat cheese, natural, fresh, more mature, smoky, herbal, with merken.

find out a bit, I found some answers to this difficult to find meat and other byproducts of the kid. Answers which have not ceased to amaze me, the short supply of meat has much to do with the sites (far apart) from approved slaughterhouses to fish animals. Implement a slaughterhouse appears to be quite expensive and complex, and operate without permits animals to sell their meat is not allowed.

The theme of cheese and other goat milk products goes hand in hand with the possibility of obtaining permits crianceros corresponding health and to market. But for many it is complex to meet all required standards and that not everyone can have clean water to establish dairies.

These two aspects are the ones who collude with the possibility that in our country we all have access to meat consumption milk, cheese and demases byproducts of goats.

Now the emphasis is on food care, lower rates of overweight and obesity, it would be favorable to have access to these products, as there are studies supporting its benefits.

An important point to consider is that generally are raised with natural grass, without any additives, chemicals or natural elements that are harmful to human health.

Although there are new projects that provide incentives to raise their livestock crianceros "apotrerado" ie paddocks closed and no longer in the open because it predates the environment. As this system requires heavy investment and can also have too much water has spread further.

Other studies support the graces of goat milk, which they say is lower in lactose and casein than cow's milk, so it can be a viable alternative for those who are lactose intolerant to cow's milk (see with your doctor.) It is also more digestive and even remember reading that people with diseases of the airways, have improved eating goat milk because there is less possibility to produce mucus. Nutrition facts

This finding was actually in my opinion one of the greatest delights of the day, these boxes are one of the best thing I tried that day. Three types of goat cheese diced (mature cheese, another with red pepper and a third smoked), together with sajadas and drained olives with a little salt and bits of goat jerky.

The family party was not alcohol, which did not prevent for the crowd attending the pass very well.
I just hope that next year will again make this fair kid, which provides an opportunity for crianceros to display and disseminate their work.

remains that if pending, be gathering a lot of preparations that are made daily by these locations.

And although I took many more photos, I'll take this final image. Soon I hope to share pictures and other preparations of this region were on display in this exhibition.
