Subject: Re: [Sca-cooks] Strange questions for the New Year

I'd like some assistance with preparation of some  Strange Stuph. In my 
(semi-)local Stop and Shop, they had a bizarre-looking  object resembling
the head 
of Khuthoogol - lots of thin-ish roots or branches.  They labeled it
'Budhha's 
Hand.' Is it a fruit? A vegetable? How does one cook  it? [I am assuming it 
is native to the Far East, and probably never never known  in Our Area in 
period, but this is the group with the widest knowledge...]
    Second question: the local (to Weight Watchers)  greengrocers seem to 
carry green, fuzzy, unripe almonds and also pistachios.  What does one do
with 
these?
    Thanks.
        Devra the slightly confused  (and a happy new year to all)
