Dutch oven meals — big on flavors, easy on you

By Olivia Fowler
For the Courier
news@thepccourier.com

Dutch oven cooking maximizes meat flavor and minimizes labor.

Once the Dutch oven is filled with the meat of choice, plus other ingredients, it’s simply a matter of throwing it into a slow oven and forgetting about it until the timer goes off.

These dishes are a great way to battle the chill evenings of winter. One of the best things about them is the scent that fills the kitchen while they’re cooking.

I use a cast-iron Dutch oven, but there are several highly rated Dutch ovens on the market made from other materials that produce excellent results.

UPSTATE — A new treatment for Alzheimer’s disease could be on the horizon.

Results were published in late November of a three-phase trial for treatment of early-stage Alzheimer’s disease.

An 18-month study of the monoclonal antibody Lecanemab showed “moderately less decline on measures of cognition and function” than the placebo, according to the results, though it was associated with adverse events.

Prisma Health physicians Dr. Shilpa Srinivasan and Dr. John Absher met with reporters

CENTRAL — An Easley teen died in a single-vehicle accident last week.

Pickens County chief deputy coroner Heather Harrison identified the victim as Simon Landreth, 19, of Easley.

The collision occurred at 5 p.m. Friday, Dec 30 on U.S. Highway 123, about one mile north of Central, according to Lance Cpl. Tyler Tidwell of the South Carolina Highway Patrol.

Landreth was driving a 2011 Lexus SUV north on U.S. 123 when the vehicle ran off the left side of the road and struck an embankment, Tidwell said.

Landreth was not wearing a seatbelt and was ejected from the vehicle, Harrison said.

He was pronounced dead at the scene, she said.

The Highway Patrol is investigating.
