Not beans. This food is not usually considered high in protein.

Half the carbohydrates are sugar, some sort of fruit? What sort of unrefined
fruit comes in tablespoons? No sugar added jam? Apricot jam? High in
vitamins A and C.

Not apricot nor jam. Note how i talked around the "refined" issue in
#375. I'd call it a fruit.

Dried fruit? Dried tomatoes? Is sugar-added not considered refined?

Not dried anything. I wouldn't call sugar-added "refined"....but no
sugar has been added to this food.

Dried fruit, like I said. We like ajvar, which is Macedonian or Bulgarian
and is a combination of cooked peppers, eggplant and tomato with spices, sort
of boiled down to thick. Available at big market in spicy or less spicy.
If anyone else is reading this item please come up with a mystery food (and
if you want me to guess at it I do better at single ingredient stuff).
Or I will enter something interesting from an ethnic food store again. We
just ran out of peanut oil and went shopping.
What does one do with only 2 tbps tomato paste?

I don't think of tomato paste as a dried fruit because it's not dry.
I'd guess they figure 2T is the amount each person gets from the little
can of tomato paste after you mix it into a pot of spaghetti sauce and
serve it to your family.

We are trying to remember just what Jim's entry was. You are close as far
as 'cereal' and 'bulk' but it needs further cooking to be eaten for breakfast,
and is generally mixed with a few other ingredients. Not just dumped into
a bowl and milk added, or simply boiled.

is it oatmeal?

No, we make oatmeal by simply boiling it. This is not oatmeal, but it is used
similarly to a cereal=grain though technically not a grain (graminae - grass).

Can I guess again, or do I need to let someone else have a try; I think I know
what it is...

Of course you can guess again, this was a dead item without your input! Sorry
I have been too busy with computer viruses to get back to here sooner.

CORNmeal !!! It's not a grain, but it's treated that way, often. You might
use it to make mush, cornbread, etc. :-)

Corn is definitely a member of the graminae and thus a grain, albeit
processed into meal. Wheat flour is also made from a grain, etc. This is
something else made into flour that is not a true grain. It can also be eaten
not made into flour.

Think 'pancake'. (Not phooee, not wheat, rye, corn, barley, millet, sorghum,
teff, rice, although these all make nice pancakes too).

Potato flour?

Nope, and not sweet potato or cassava flour. BIG HINT: the name sounds like
a grain even though this is not a grain.
(Not acorn flour, not breadfruit flour)
