Hi Becky. I oven fried some boneless skinless chicken breasts last week, 
using Bisquick and seasonings. Smile. I was worried about the same thing. I 
put quite a bit of vegetable oil in the baking dish, so that the chicken was 
covered about half way up the side. Then about half way through the cooking 
process, we flipped each piece over and continued baking. I just held my 
breath and hoped like the dickins they didn't stick! It worked. I think it 
was the amount of oil that I used. Fattening yes, but it was delicious. Good 
luck.

Hi everyone.

I am going to oven fry some cube steak tonight.  My recipe uses bisquick and 
seasonings.  My question is, How can I make sure the batter does not stick 
to the pan?  I have tried spraying the pan, but it doesn’t seem to help. 
Any suggestions?


Thanks,

Becky

2012-12-13 Thread Penny Reeder
Hi Jody, Yum - lasagna!
I make Emeril's recipe.  I even make the home-made tomato sauce, of
which you use half for the lasagna - the rest is great on spaghetti or
with baked penne pasta, ! with bechemel and mozzerella.  Anyway, the
one change I make in Emeril's recipe is that I use 1 pound of ground
beef and 1/2 pound sweet and 1/2 pound spicy Italian sausages instead
of the 2 pound of ground beef.

Also, I rarely buy canned tomato sauce, so where he calls for canned
tomato sauce in his Italian tomato sauce recipe, I puree 2 cans of
stewed tomatoes with my imersion blender and throw that in instead.

Anyway, here's the recipe, and Merry delicious Christmas!
Penny

Emeril's 1-2-3 Lasagna
Ingredients
2 pounds ground beef
5 cups Basic Red Sauce, recipe follows
1 (15-ounce) container ricotta
2 large eggs
1 cup grated Parmesan
1 pound grated Mozzarella
1/2 teaspoon Essence (YOu can buy the spice blend in the supermarket,
or make your own with thyme, paprika, oregano, and salt and pepper.
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons chopped fresh parsley
1 teaspoon dried basil
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
12 dried (uncooked) lasagna
 noodles
Directions
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
In a large saucepan, add the
ground beef and brown over medium heat. Season with salt, pepper, and
Essence. Add the tomato sauce and simmer for 10 minutes.
In a large bowl fold together the ricotta cheese, eggs, 1/2 cup grated
Parmesan, 1/2 cup grated mozzarella, the Essence, salt,
parsley, basil, and black pepper.
Spread 1 cup of the tomato sauce in the bottom of a 3-quart (13 by 9
by 2-inch) casserole.
Lay 3 lasagna noodles lengthwise down the dish. The noodles should not touch one
another. Spoon 3/4 cup of the ricotta mixture over the noodles, and
spread evenly
with a rubber spatula
. Sprinkle 1 cup of the mozzarella evenly over the ricotta. Repeat
with the remaining
ingredients, for a total of 4 layers of
noodles
. Sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of mozzarella over the top layer of
tomato sauce, and top with the remaining 1/2 cup of Parmesan.
Cover the casserole tightly with aluminum foil, and bake, covered, for 1 hour.
Remove the casserole from the oven, and remove the aluminum foil.
Return to the oven and bake, uncovered, for 10 minutes.
Remove from the oven and let sit for 10 minutes before serving.
Basic Red Sauce:
2 (28-ounce) cans whole peeled
tomatoes (Use San Marzano tomatoes if you can!)
2 tablespoons olive oil
1-1/2 cups chopped yellow onions (1 medium yellow onion)
1 teaspoon minced garlic (about 2 cloves garlic)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 (15-ounce) cans tomato sauce
3 tablespoons tomato paste
2 cups water
1 teaspoon sugar
Place the tomatoes in a large bowl and squeeze to break into small
pieces. Set aside.
In a heavy 5-quart pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the
onions , garlic, salt, basil, oregano and black pepper, and cook,
stirring, until soft,
5 minutes. Add the tomato sauce, tomato paste, water, sugar and reserved crushed
tomatoes, stir well, and bring to a simmer. Lower the heat to medium-low, and
simmer  uncovered for 45 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Remove from the heat, and use as needed.
Yield: 10 cups (2 1/2 quarts)

I made some red velvet cookies yesterday that started with a sugar cookie mix. 
The recipe said to make the cookies into 1 inch balls which I did. I thought 
they would spread out but they looked like little biscuits and they tasted 
bready not like cookies at all. I went exactly by the recipe. Has anyone ever 
had this problem? I threw the things away. I was so frustrated. Any ideas what 
could have happened let me know.

[CnD] George And Lora's Thanksgiving Lasagna

2012-12-13 Thread Lora Leggett
George And Lora's Thanksgiving Lasagna
(Lora Leggett 2008.11.29)

8 lasagna noodles, uncooked
1 pound ricotta cheese
8  oz. shredded Mozzarella cheese or slices, reserve some for the top
1/2 pound hamburger
2 hot Italian sausages
garlic powder or minced garlic
1 jar (32 oz.) spaghetti sauce
salt and pepper to taste
water as needed
small amount of butter for pan, optional

Rub a little butter on the bottom of a 9 by 13 inch pan.
Place 4 uncooked lasagna noodles on the pan.  Do not boil ahead of time.
In this meal 8 noodles are used with all the filling in the middle to make it 
easier so you don't have to divide off the filling or sauce.  It works just as 
well as the other way of using 9 noodles in 3 layers.
 Remove the raw sausage meat from the casing by slitting the casing with your 
finger and sliding out the meat.
Combine the sausage and hamburger meat.  Sprinkle meat with a little garlic 
powder if you do not have fresh minced garlic and brown in a large skillet or 
Dutch oven.
Drain the meat in a collander and wipe out the pan with a paper towel to remove 
most of the drippings.
Brown 2 cloves minced garlic in a little butter or olive oil in the same pan if 
you are using fresh garlic.
Return meat to the pan and add the jar of spaghetti sauce.  Ccover and cook 
over medium heat for about a half hour while you prepare the cheese filling.
In a small bowl put the ricotta cheese.  Add half of the shredded Mozzarella or 
tear up the Mozzarella slices into small pieces.
Add Parmesan cheese and stir to combine.
Pour cheese filling over the lasagna noodles in the pan and spread evenly.
add a little salt and pepper to taste.
Pour or spoon spaghetti sauce with meat over the cheese filling.
Cover with lasagna noodles.  Push down.
Pour the reserved  Mozzarella cheese over the noodles.
Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and add a little water if you do not think it is 
covered enough.
Slide the pan carefully into a plastic bag or use a pan cover if you have one.  
Chill several hours or overnight.  Make sure the pan is level.
Take out the pan, remove cover, and check to see that it isn't too dry  on top. 
 Sprinkle with a little water if needed and make sure the liquid is level.
, Ifyou are using a glass pan put it into the cold oven. Do not go from a 
chilled pan into a preheated oven with glass.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees with a metal pan.
Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes to an hour.
Let stand at least a half hour or more before cutting it if you can bear to 
wait with the wonderful smell in the kitchen.
You may substitute cream of mushroom soup with an equal amount of water for the 
spaghetti sauce and cottage cheese for the ricotta.

Re: [CnD] Please help

2012-12-13 Thread Jude DaShiell
Could oven temperature been at fault?  Not your setting of the oven 
temperature but some variation in oven performance during that bake?  
Generally with biscuits which are cousins of cookies the less they're 
handled by mixers and people's hands before they go into the oven the 
lighter and larger they will turn out.  Did anybody else do anything with 
the recipe while it was in preparation or with the oven before these were 
finished baking?

[CnD] Full Proof Fudge

2012-12-13 Thread gail johnson

I have made this and it works.
You don't need to have a thermometer or look for the soft ball stage.
It is what we are giving for presents this year.

Full Proof Fudge

Ingredients:
1 cup butter unsalted preferred
2 cups sugar
1/2 cup milk
4-6 tablespoons cocoa powder
1 cup peanutbutter creamy or crunchy
1 cup nuts coarsely chopped (walnuts, pecan, or other. I used almonds.
3 cups quick cooking oats (do not use the longer cooking old-fashion 
oats. From personal experience I can tell you the fudge will not set up.

2 teaspoons vanilla
1 teaspoon pumpkin spice

Method:
1. Melt the butter.
2. Add the sugar, milk, and cocoa. Keep stirring until it boils for one 
minute. If you end up doing it a couple minutes longer it will be fine.

3. Remove it from the heat.
4. Add the peanutbutter, oats, and vanilla.
5. Stir well. Make sure all the oats are covered totally.
6. The consistancy will be thick enough to drop by spoonfuls easily.

[CnD] Our Special Recipes

2012-12-13 Thread Mary Ann
Instead of writing each recipe out, why don't you see if a recipe is on the 
computer somewhere by searching and then compare the recipe with our 
special?? This would save you a lot of work and most of the time a recipe 
like I want is  on the computer when I use google to search. Just a thought.

Yep, it can be tbsp.  Or it can be tbls.  for a tablespoon and then I have 
seen ts or tsp.  to mean a teaspoon.  I either use one of those or write 
the words out when I see a capital T or a small t because it is too hard 
for some people to tell.  I also write out the fractions 1/2 or 1/4 
because some people's computers do not read the one symbol fractions.  I 
have noticed if I curse over it, NVDA will say "one half" or "one quarter" 
I think.  But I always change it to the long way so people will always be 
able to read it.
I usually don't edit cookbooks but I do it when I add a recipe to one of 
my own folders, always make it clear because I went several years having 
to ask my girl friends what the measurements were and I decided never to 
leave people wondering when I send a recipe to a group.

I'm sure this has already been answered, but
When a recipe calls for a Tablespoon it is Abbreviated as Tblsp.
And as for a Teaspoon it is a small tsp.
I may be wrong.

Hi Nicole.
Thanks for the advice.  However, my one is a cheapie from the supermarket, 
and the manual has no recipes in it.  It just tells me quantities of rice 
and water to use.  It has a steamer basket which sits on top of the rice 
pot.

Cheers

it,

especially since just about any kitchen appliance seems to be required by
law to include recipes in the documentation.
I plan on doing this fairly soon for mine, as it can probably do a lot 
more

than I use it for. Mine is a basic Panasonic, with a rice container and
steamer basket, but with a single switch to turn it on, which pops up 
when
it's done doing its thing. I'm sure there's a lot more it can do than 
what

I'm using it for so far.

Thanks for all the tips on using rice cookers.  The one I have is a very

for all sorts of other things apart from rice?  Many thanks.
