TURKISH DELIGHT
This dessert is slightly exotic and is known by many people who have read the book 'The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe'. This would do well for a tea party, a holiday party, or even if you just wanted to surprise someone.

Steps:
- Bring 1 1/2 cups water, sugar, and corn syrup to a boil over medium-high heat in a large saucepan. Cook, stirring frequently, until the temperature reaches 240 degrees F (115 degrees C) on a candy thermometer. Set aside and keep hot.
- Stir together orange juice and orange zest, sprinkle with gelatin, and set aside. In a small bowl, dissolve cornstarch in 1/2 cup cold water, then stir into hot syrup. Place over medium-low heat, and simmer, stirring gently, until very thick.
- Remove syrup from heat, stir in orange juice mixture, vanilla, and pistachios. Sprinkle a 8x8-inch pan generously with confectioners' sugar. Pour the Turkish delight into the pan, and let cool in a cool, dry place (not the refrigerator) until set, 3 to 4 hours.
- When cool, sprinkle the top with another thick layer of powdered sugar. Cut into 1-inch squares, and dredge each well with confectioners' sugar. Store at room temperature in an airtight container.

WANGANUI DELIGHT
Posted in response to a request. I found this recipe in old book my mother had, and have tried to convert this recipe from metric to imperial. Some of the measurements may need a bit of tweaking. I have not made it myself as yet, but I will soon. Note - Kremelta is called Copha in Australia, and for those unfamiliar with Kremelta/Copha it is a vegetable shortening made from coconut oil. NOTE: I have since made this and was very disappointed. I will not be making it again.

WALLEYE DELIGHT
I love fish and think grilling is one of the best ways to prepare it. The combination of lemon juice, basil and other seasonings is fantastic.

This recipe is from a book my grandmother gave me. The front cover is missing so I'm not sure of the name of the book. My family all love this recipe. It's great for dinner on a cold winter's night. I serve it with creamed potatoes and crusty bread.
