[RecipesAndMore] Curried Greens

2008-02-09 Thread Angel Luvs Tags

Curried Greens
6 Servings 
When people hear the word "greens," I think they immediately conjure up
childhood memories of overcooked lumps of vegetation they were forced to
eat and hated. But the vegetable section of the grocery is a different
world today, brimming with a variety of greens such as spinach, chard,
kale, mustard, collards, and bok choy that are tasty as well as
excellent sources of vitamins and minerals. Iron, calcium, and folic
acid (an important B vitamin that helps prevent birth defects and offers
protection from heart disease) are abundant in these leafy veggies.
Greens can have strong tastes, but I encourage you to experiment with
varieties you*ve never tried or haven*t had in a while. I believe you*ll
be in for a pleasant surprise. 
Ingredients:
1 pound spinach, kale, collards, or beet greens (or mixture of all)
2 cloves garlic, pressed or minced 
2-3 tablespoons curry powder 
1 cup finely chopped tomatoes (fresh or canned) 
1 tablespoon tomato paste 
1 tablespoon dark-brown sugar 
1 tablespoon canola oil 
1 cup onion, finely diced 
3/4 pound brown potatoes, peeled and cubed 
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro (optional) 
Instructions:
1. Wash and drain greens, removing any coarse stems and midribs. Cut
into half-inch strips. 
2. In a small bowl, mix together garlic, curry powder, tomatoes, tomato
paste, and sugar. 
3. Heat the canola oil in a skillet and sauté onion over
medium-high heat until it begins to brown. Add the spice-and-tomato
mixture, mix well, and cook for a few minutes. 
4. Add the potatoes and 2 cups water. 
5. Mix well, bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover, and cook for 10
minutes. 
6. Add greens and cook for 10 minutes more, or until potatoes are done. 
7. Correct seasoning to taste. Garnish with the chopped fresh cilantro
if desired.

I am waiting to see if Frank's doctor releases him from the hospital today so 
he can be transferred to the nursing home for Rehab. As I said, he'll be there 
for at least 3 months.

I'm sick inside.  There is nothing I can do.

Do prayers really help?  Is God hearing me?  Is God listening to me?

Love,

God's love

It's amazing and incredible,
But it's as true as it can be
God loves and understands us all
And that means you and me.

His grace is all-sufficient
For both the young and old,
For the lonely and the timid,
For the brash and for the bold.

His love knows no exceptions,
So never feel excluded,
No matter who or what you are
Your name has been included.

And no matter what your past has been,
Trust God to understand,
And no matter what your problem is
Just place it in His Hands.

For in all of our unloveliness
This great God loves us still,
He loved us since the world began
And what's more, He always will!

 Good friends are hard to find, harder to leave, and impossible to forget.

  More bad news.

  Frank did not get released from the hospital today.  The neurosurgeon did a 
scan and they found more brain hemorrhage and air in his brain.  He is also 
very congested and they did a chest x-ray.

  I have to call tomorrow morning at 7:30 to see if they will do more brain 
surgery tomorrow or Monday.

  Please pray.

Oriental Dressing

3 tablespoons honey

1 1/2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar

1/4 cup mayonnaise

1 teaspoon Grey Poupon Dijon mustard

1/8 teaspoon sesame oil

 

Salad

1 egg

1/2 cup milk

1/2 cup flour

1/2 cup corn flake crumbs

1 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon pepper

1 boneless, skinless chicken breast half

2-4 cups vegetable oil (for frying)

3 cups chopped romaine lettuce

2. Blend together all ingredients for dressing in a small bowl

with an electric mixer. Put dressing in refrigerator to chill

while you prepare the salad.

3. In a small, shallow bowl beat egg, add milk, and mix well.

4. In another bowl, combine flour with corn flake crumbs, salt

and pepper.

5. Cut chicken breast into 4 or 5 long strips. Dip each strip of

chicken first into egg mixture then into the flour mixture,

coating each piece completely.

6. Fry each chicken finger for 5 minutes or until coating has

darkened to brown.

7. Prepare salad by tossing the chopped romaine with the chopped

red cabbage, Napa cabbage, and carrots.

8. Sprinkle sliced green onion on top of the lettuce.

9. Sprinkle almonds over the salad, then the Chow Mein noodles.

10. Cut the chicken into small bite-size chunks. Place the

chicken onto the salad forming a pile in the middle. Serve with

salad dressing on the side.

Makes 1 dinner-size salad.

Classic Recipe -- Tomato Ketchup

 

Posted on The Soulful recepies list

 

FoodReference.com

Mrs. Samuel Whitehorne, SUGAR HOUSE BOOK, 1801, Collection of

the Newport Historical Society.

Get them quite ripe on a dry day, squeeze them with your hands

till reduced to a pulp, then put half a pound of fine salt to

one hundred tomatoes, and boil them for two hours. Stir them to

prevent burning. While hot press them through a fine sieve, with

a silver spoon till nought but the skin remains, then add a

little mace, 3 nutmegs, allspice, cloves, cinnamon, ginger and

pepper to taste. Boil over a slow fire till quite thick, stir

all the time. Bottle when cold. One hundred tomatoes will make

four or five bottles and keep good for two or three years.

Pour filling on cooked crust, put back into oven for 30 minutes

or golden brown. Cool, sprinkle with powered sugar. Cut into

bars.

 

Note:

Keep the butter cold when you add it, I find this makes the

crust so smooth and people say how did you make this and of

course I give them the recipe but not the food processor part

and they say I made your recipe but its just not as light

[RecipesAndMore] SANDWICH TIPS...

2008-02-09 Thread steve doyle
SANDWICH TIPS...   

FREEZING? Yep, fresh is better of course but any kind of   
bread can be frozen, as bread or as sandwiches. Many people   
like to make lots of sandwiches and freeze them individually.   
Salad vegetables such as lettuce, tomato, and cucumber do not   
freeze well. Suitable fillings to freeze include:   

* egg (grate or chop finely and mix with a little mayonnaise   
or yoghurt) - this is an excellent filling to freeze as the   
sandwich will defrost by lunchtime and you won't have the   
smell of an egg sandwich until it defrosts.   

* lean ham, beef, chicken or turkey all freeze well and you   
can happily add mustard or pickles.   

* cheese freezes well - add sliced celery, chutney or pickles,   
if desired.   

* cream cheese (or light cream cheese) can also be frozen. Add   
chopped walnuts or almonds, dried apricots or other dried fruits,   
plus finely sliced ginger, if desired.   

* Even peanut butter can be frozen.   

 Good friends are hard to find, harder to leave, and impossible to forget.

1 cup sliced onions
2 T brown sugar
2 1/2 teaspoons Hungarian sweet paprika
1 teaspoon dry mustard
2 teaspoons salt
dash cayenne
1/4 cup + 2 teaspoons Worcestershire saucee (4 tablespoons + 1 teaspoon)
1 teaspoon vinegar
 1 clove garlic, crushed
3/4 cup catsup
3 cups water

Brown meat. Combine remaining ingredients and pour over meat. Bring to boil.
Turn heat down to low and simmer for 1 ½ hours; if preferred, place browned
meat and all other ingredients in pressure cooker, bring to full pressure,
and cook 12 minutes. Serve over noodles. Garnish with parsley if desired. If
you like a thicker sauce, dissolve 1 teaspoon of cornstarch in a bit of
water, stir into boiling goulash, and cook for a minute or two until
thickened.

To cook in a slow cooker, place all ingredients in the cooker and cook on
low 8-10 hours. Browning of meat ahead of time is not necessary. though it
does add to the flavor of the dish.. To thicken, turn cooker to high;
dissolve 1 teaspoon cornstarch in small amount of water, stir into goulash,
and cook on high for 15-30 minutes or until thickened.

  I'm sick inside.  There is nothing I can do.

  Do prayers really help?  Is God hearing me?  Is God listening to me?

[RecipesAndMore] Hi Friends!

2008-02-09 Thread Marilyn L DeWeese
I am waiting to see if Frank's doctor releases him from the hospital today so 
he can be transferred to the nursing home for Rehab. As I said, he'll be there 
for at least 3 months.

I'm sick inside.  There is nothing I can do.

Do prayers really help?  Is God hearing me?  Is God listening to me?

Love,


Marilyn

[RecipesAndMore] LEMON CAKE

2008-02-09 Thread Marilyn L DeWeese
LEMON CAKE

1/2 lb. (2 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature
2 1/2 c. granulated sugar, divided
4 extra-large eggs, at room temperature
1/3 c. grated lemon zest (6 to 8 large lemons)
3 c. flour
1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. kosher salt
3/4 c. freshly squeezed lemon juice, divided
3/4 c. buttermilk, at room temperature
1 tsp. pure vanilla extract

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

Grease and flour 2 (8 1/2 by 4 1/4 by 2 1/2-inch) loaf pans. You may also line 
the bottom with parchment paper, if desired.

Cream the butter and 2 cups granulated sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer 
fitted with the paddle attachment, until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes.
With the mixer on medium speed, add the eggs, 1 at a time, and the lemon zest.

Sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a bowl. In 
another bowl, combine 1/4 cup lemon juice, the buttermilk, and vanilla. Add
the flour and buttermilk mixtures alternately to the batter, beginning and 
ending with the flour. Divide the batter evenly between the pans, smooth the
tops, and bake for 45 minutes to 1 hour, until a cake tester comes out clean.

Combine 1/2 cup granulated sugar with 1/2 cup lemon juice in a small saucepan 
and cook over low heat until the sugar dissolves.

When the cakes are done, allow to cool for 10 minutes. Remove the cakes from 
the pans and set them on a rack set over a tray or sheet pan; spoon the lemon
syrup over them. Allow the cakes to cool completely.

For the Glaze:

2 c. confectioners' sugar, sifted
3 1/2 tbsp. freshly squeezed lemon juice

Combine the confectioners' sugar and the lemon juice in a bowl, mixing with a 
wire whisk until smooth. Pour over the tops of the cakes and allow the glaze
to drizzle down the sides.  Enjoy.

2008-02-09 Thread delma bliss


Bread Stick Valentines

Vegetable oil spray
1 11-ounce can refrigerated bread stick dough
1 egg
1 tablespoon water
Poppy or sesame seeds (optional)

Bread sticks make great dinner side dishes and great craft materials. Let 
the kids make their own shapes or surprise them with your special creations. 
We like to make hearts, but you can shape your dough into anything -- first 
name, initials, flowers, animals, unique designs, even monsters!

Makes 8

Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a cookie sheet with vegetable oil spray. 
Separate dough into eight pieces. Twist or bend each piece into a heart 
shape or other design and place 2 inches apart on cookie sheet. Blend egg 
and water together and brush on dough. Add seeds if desired. Bake for 15 
minutes, until golden brown.


Variations: You can get quite creative with this recipe by substituting 
colored sugar, mini red candies, sprinkles or anything else you can think of 
for the seeds. Afterward you can drizzle melted chocolate over the top or a 
confectioner's glaze. Have fun!

[RecipesAndMore] CHOCOLATE HEART LAYER CAKE WITH CHOCOLATE-CINNAMON MOUSSE

2008-02-09 Thread delma bliss


CHOCOLATE HEART LAYER CAKE WITH CHOCOLATE-CINNAMON MOUSSE

Look for the heart-shaped cake ring at cake and candy supply stores,
or call Jane's Cakes and Chocolates at 800-262-7630. You can also use
a buttered and floured 8-inch round cake pan with 2-inch-high sides.

Cake
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1/3 cup all purpose flour
1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
4 large eggs
3/4 cup sugar

Mousse Base
1 cup heavy whipping cream
4 cinnamon sticks, broken in half

Mousse, Cake Assembly, and Glaze
2/3 cup cherry jam
2 tablespoons kirsch (clear cherry brandy)

4 ounces bittersweet (not unsweetened) or semisweet chocolate, finely
chopped

1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
1/4 cup water
2 tablespoons light corn syrup
1 teaspoon chai-spiced tea leaves or Lapsang souchong smoked black
tea leaves (from 1 tea bag)
5 ounces bittersweet (not unsweetened) or semisweet chocolate,
coarsely chopped

For Cake:
Preheat oven to 400°F. Place 8x8x2-inch heart-shaped cake ring on
sheet of foil. Wrap foil up sides of ring. Brush foil and inside of
ring with 1 tablespoon butter; dust with flour. Place on baking
sheet.
Sift flour, cocoa, and salt into medium bowl. Combine eggs and sugar
in large metal bowl. Set bowl over saucepan of simmering water (do
not allow bottom of bowl to touch water). Whisk until sugar
dissolves, about 2 minutes. Remove from over water. Using electric
mixer, beat mixture until thick and billowy and heavy ribbon falls
when beaters are lifted, about 5 minutes. Sift half of dry
ingredients over; fold in gently. Repeat with remaining dry
ingredients. Transfer 1/4 cup batter to small bowl; fold in 3
tablespoons butter. Gently fold butter mixture into batter; do not
overmix or batter will deflate. Transfer batter to ring.

Bake cake until tester inserted into center comes out clean, about 20
minutes. Transfer cake with foil to rack; cool completely. (Can be
made 1 day ahead. Cover and store at room temperature.)

For Mousse Base:
Bring whipping cream and cinnamon sticks just to simmer in heavy
medium saucepan. Remove from heat; let steep 1 hour at room
temperature. Cover and refrigerate cinnamon cream overnight.

For Mousse, Cake Assembly, and Glaze:
Blend jam and kirsch in small bowl. Cut around sides of cake; lift
off ring. Using metal spatula, loosen cake from foil and transfer to
rack. Using serrated knife, cut cake horizontally in half. Using tart
pan bottom, transfer top cake layer to work surface; turn cut side
up. Spread half of jam on cut side of both cake layers.

Strain cinnamon cream into large bowl; beat until soft peaks form.
Stir finely chopped chocolate in heavy small saucepan over low heat
until smooth. Quickly fold warm chocolate into whipped cream
(chocolate must be warm to blend smoothly). Immediately drop mousse
by dollops over bottom cake layer; spread to within 3/4 inch of edge.
Gently press second layer, jam side down, atop mousse. Smooth sides
of cake with offset spatula. Chill assembled cake on rack while
preparing glaze.

Bring cream, 1/4 cup water, corn syrup, and tea to boil in small
saucepan, stirring constantly. Remove from heat; steep 5 minutes.
Strain into another small saucepan; return to boil.

Remove from heat. Add coarsely chopped chocolate; whisk until smooth.
Cool glaze until thickened, but still pourable, about 30 minutes.
Place rack with cake over baking sheet. Slowly pour glaze over cake
to cover, using spatula if necessary to spread evenly. Chill until
glaze is firm, at least 2 hours and up to 1 day. Place cake on
platter and serve.
Makes 4 servings.

  Hi My Good Friends!

  Hopefully, tomorrow morning, Frank will be transferred by ambulance to the 
Rehab Center that is about 3 minutes away from my apartment.

  He will have to have a swallow evaluation, speech therapy and he will have to 
learn to walk again.  He will, of course, have to gain more strength.

  His speech is still very slurred partly due to the seizure meds he is on and 
possibly some of it is some brain damage.  His neurologist told me this evening 
that he could have to be in rehab up to 3 months and that I had to be patient.  
He said that Frank would have bad days and good days and today was a very bad 
day for him.

  I hugged him and kissed him before I left and told him I loved him.  I could 
understand him when he said he loved me back.  I then told him that I would do 
anything for him I could and he said he knew that.

  I'm sorry if I have repeated myself, but it is hard to remember who I told 
what.

  Thank you for your thoughts and prayers and please keep the prayers coming.

  I appreciate my Church Family and all my friend's churches who have put Frank 
on their prayer lists.

  Thanks to all of you for your support, concern and love.

  Marilyn

[RecipesAndMore] Champagne by the Spoonful Recipe

2008-02-09 Thread Angel Luvs Tags

Champagne by the Spoonful Recipe
1 1/4 C. champagne, chilled, divided 
1/4 C. granulated sugar 
1 t. unflavored gelatin 
1/4 C. fresh raspberries 
Rinse and dry two champagne flutes. In a small saucepan, heat 1/4 cup 
champagne with sugar and gelatin until sugar and gelatin dissolve and 
mixture comes to a simmer. Remove from heat and pour into a heatproof 
glass measuring cup. Add remaining chilled champagne. Chill until 
mixture just begins to mound on a spoon, one to two hours. 
Drop a couple of berries into each champagne flute. Pour in enough of 
the gelatin mixture to fill the flutes about halfway, taking care not 
to dribble down the sides of the glass. Drop in a few more berries. 
Divide the remaining gelatin mixture between the two glasses, and 
drop in a couple of more berries. 
Using a fork, gently push the berries to varying depths. Place the 
flutes in the refrigerator until gelatin is completely set, 1 to 2 
hours. 
Makes 2 servings
