Knedleigh

Recipe By : Ilana Cohney
Serving Size : 1 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Pesach Shabbos Recipes
Soups

Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
——– ———— ——————————–
1 egg
1 tablespoon oil — per egg
3 tablespoons water — per egg
pinch salt
pinch pepper
1 teaspoon sugar (optional)
1 tablespoon ginger — generous amount
matza meal — as required

Mix all the ingredients together except matza meal, allowing one egg for
person. (This gives a generous amound of knedleigh per person, you may want
to do less) Then add as little matza meal as possible until mixture hold
together VERY lightly. Put in fridge a few hours. Add only enough matza
meal to make it possible to form balls. Wet hands and don’t worry too much
about making them perfectly round. Drop into boiling soup or water. I
usually make up a simple soup of water and a soup cube and then keep these
hot in a seperate saucepan. Transfer them into your proper chicken soup
pot just before serving. Otherwise you may find that the
knedleigh drink up all your soup.

    Grilled Pizza

    Recipe

    Grilled Pizza

    Recipe By : COOKING RIGHT SHOW #CR9730
    Serving Size : 1 Preparation Time :0:00
    Categories : New Text Import Cooking Right Show

    Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
    ——– ———— ——————————–
    6 Ounces pizza dough (recipe included)
    1/4 Cup virgin olive oil for brushing and drizzlin
    1/2 Teaspoon fresh garlic — minced
    1/2 Cup fontina — shred, loose pack
    2 Tablespoons Pecorino-Romano Cheese — freshly grated
    6 Tablespoons canned tomatoes in heavy puree — chopped
    8 basil leaves
    –The Pizza Crust–
    1 env active dry yeast — (2 1/2 teaspoons)
    1 c warm water
    pinch sugar
    2 1/4 tsp kosher salt
    1/4 c johnnycake meal <>
    1/4 c fine ground white corn meal
    3 tbsp whole wheat flour
    1 tbsp virgin olive oil
    2 1/2 c unbleached white flour — more as needed

    =20
    FOR THE PIZZA CRUST:

    Dissolve the yeast in warm water with sugar. After 5 minutes, stir in the
    salt, johnnycake meal, wheat flour and oil. Gradually add the white flour,
    stirring with a wooden spoon until a stiff dough has formed.

    Empty the dough onto a floured board, and knead it for several minutes,
    adding enough flour to keep the dough from sticking. When the dough is
    smooth and shiny, transfer it to a bowl that has been brushed with olive
    oil. To prevent a skin from forming, brush the top of the dough with
    additional olive oil, cover the bowl with plastic wrap, and let the dough
    rise in a warm place, away from drafts until double in bulk, 1 1/2 to 2=
    hours.

    Punch down the dough and knead once more. Let the dough rise again for about
    40 minutes. Punch down the dough. If the dough is sticky, knead in a bit
    more flour. Dough should be very soft however.

    Yield: about 24 ounces of dough or enough for four 12-inch pizzas

    TO ASSEMBLE AND GRILL THE PIZZA:

    Prepare a charcoal fire, setting the grill rack 3-4 inches above the coals.

    On a large oiled inverted cookie sheet, spread and flatten the pizza dough
    with your hands into a 10-12 inch free form circle, 1/8 inch thick, do not
    make a lip. You may achieve a rectangle rather than a circle; the shape is
    unimportant; do take care to maintain even thickness.

    When the fire is medium hot, use your fingertips to gently lift the dough by
    the two corners closest to you, and drape it onto the grill. Catch the loose
    edge on the grill first and guide the remaining dough into place over the
    fire. Within a minute the dough will puff slightly, the underside will
    stiffen, and grill marks will appear.

    Using tongs, immediately flip the crust over, onto the coolest part of the
    grill. Quickly brush the grilled surface with olive oil. Scatter the garlic
    and cheeses over the dough and spoon dollops of tomato over the cheese. Do
    not cover the entire surface of the pizza. Finally, drizzle the pizza with
    1/2 tablespoon olive oil.

    Slide the pizza back toward the hot coals, but not directly over them. Using
    tongs, rotate the pizza frequently so that different sections receive high
    heat; check the underside often to see that it is not burning. The pizza is
    done when the top is bubbly and the cheese melted, about 6-8 minutes. Serve
    at once topped with the basil leaves and additional olive oil if desired.=20
    Yield: 1 as a main course or 2 as an appetizer.

    NOTE: There are several traps and difficulties that with experience you will
    overcome. To start, be careful not to stretch the dough so thinly that holes
    appear. Don’t despair however if small holes do appear. Though you cannot
    repair them, you can work around them. To avoid flare-ups, do not drizzle
    any of the oil into the holes.

    When you are lifting the dough off the cookie sheet, it will invariably
    stretch; do not try to compensate for this by moving your hands apart. Work
    as close to the grill as possible so the dough is without support for a
    minimum amount of time. If after 8 minutes the cheese has not melted and the
    topping is not bubbling, either you have been too cautious in your approach
    to the coals, or you have used too much cheese and topping ingredients. A
    longer time on the grill will only dry out the pizza and toughen it. The
    ideal crust should be both chewy and crisp. Do not be timid about the
    preparation of this pizza. From start to finish, the bold act
    will reward you with a first rate pizza.

    SQUID SAMBAL

    Recipe By :
    Serving Size : 3 Preparation Time :0:00
    Categories : Indonesian Seafood
    Ceideburg 2

    Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
    ——– ———— ——————————–
    2 lb Squid, cut into rings
    1 Onion, chopped
    1/4 c Almonds
    2 Fresh chiles, finely
    -chopped, or
    1 t Cayenne
    1 t Grated lemon peel
    1 t Tamarind concentrate,
    -dissolved in
    2 tb Water, or
    2 tb Lemon juice
    1 t Lemon grass (dry), or
    1 Stalk fresh lemon grass,
    -chopped
    1 tb Brown sugar
    1/4 ts Shrimp paste or *
    1 t Dried, salted shrimp
    2 tb Vegetable oil

    * (known as shrimp sauce in China),

    This is probably the most exotic of these recipes. No country of
    origin is given, but from the name and the process it must be
    Indonesian or Malaysian.

    This dish has several unusual ingredients for which there are adequate
    substitutes available. In any case, all the exotic ingredients are
    available at Chinese grocery.

    In a food processor, purse the onion, almonds, chiles and shrimp
    paste.

    In a large, heavy frying pan or a wok, saute the spice paste in oil
    over low heat. When it turns dark brown, add tamarind water, the
    lemon, lemon grass and sugar. Saute a minute more, then add the
    squid. Turn up the heat and cook for 3 minutes, adding water if
    necessary to keep the sauce from sticking. Remove from heat and
    serve over rice.

    As a main course this dish serves 3; as a side dish, 6 or more.
