  • Lentil Loaf

    Recipe

    From: “Von Balson, Kathleen”

    Lentil Loaf

    Ingredients:
    2 cups dry brown lentils, rinsed
    1 bay leaf
    1 cup uncooked fine bulgur wheat
    1 cup soft whole-wheat bread crumbs
    1 egg substitute, beaten
    1 tbs ketchup
    1 medium onion, chopped
    1 clove garlic, crushed
    1 tsp dried thyme
    2 tsp dried oregano
    1 tsp dried tarragon
    salt and pepper to taste
    3 tbs tomato paste or tomato sauce

    Prep: Cook lentils and bay leaf in pot with 6 cups water. Bring to a boil,
    reduce heat, cover and simmer until lentils are soft and water has been
    absorbed, about 45 min.
    Combine bulgur and 2 cups water in a med. saucepan. Bring to a boil,
    reduce heat, cover and simmer for about 15 min.
    Preheat oven to 350F. Transfer lentils to a large mixing bowl. Add
    bulgur, and remaining ingredients except tomato paste or sauce. Mix well
    with your hands until thoroughly combined. Pat mixture into a 9″ loaf pan.
    Bake for 40 min. until firm but not dry. During last minutes of baking,
    brush top with tomato paste or sauce. Let cool for 15 min. Cut into slices
    and serve warm.

    This goes wonderfully with mashed potatoes and your favorite vegetable! The
    leftovers taste so good in a pita pocket, and if there are mashed potatoes
    leftover, I stuff the pocket with both. Mmmm! Enjoy!

    I thought I’d pass along some hints to help those of us that get into trouble
    from time to time. It’s not recipes, but what the heck!
    If you’ve over-salted soup or vegetables, add cut raw potatoes and then
    discard once they have cooked and absorbed the salt.

    A teaspoon each of cider vinegar and sugar added to salty soup or vegetables
    will also remedy the salty situation.

    If you’ve over-sweetened a dish, add salt.

    A teaspoon of cider vinegar will take care of too-sweet main dishes or
    vegetables.

    Pale gravy may be browned by adding a bit of instant coffee straight from the
    jar. No bitter taste, either.

    If you will brown the flour well before adding to the liquid when making
    gravy, you will avoid pale or lumpy gravy.

    If time allows, the best method of removing fat is refrigeration until the
    fat hardens. If you put a piece of waxed paper over the top of the meal, it
    can be peeled right off, along with the hardened fat. Ice cubes will also
    eliminate the fat from soup and stew. Just drop a few into the pot and stir;
    the fat will cling to the cubes; discard the cubes before they melt. Or, wrap
    ice cubes in paper towel or cheesecloth and skim over the top.

    A slice of soft bread placed in the package of hardened brown sugar will
    soften it again in a couple of hours.

    A little salt placed in a frying pan will prevent splattering.

    Meat Loaf will not stick if you place a slice of bacon on the bottom of the
    pan.

    Vinegar brought to a boil in a new frying pan will prevent foods from
    sticking.

    No sticking to the pan when you’re scalding milk if you’ll first rinse the
    pan in cold water.

    A lump of butter or a few teaspoons of cooking oil added to water when
    boiling rice, noodles, macaroni, or spaghetti will prevent boiling over.

    A few drops of lemon juice added to simmering rice will keep the grains
    separate.

    A dampened paper towel or terry cloth brushed downward on a cob of corn will
    remove every strand of corn silk.

    To determine if an egg is fresh, immerse it in a pan of cool, salted water.
    If it sinks, it is fresh; it it rises to the surface, throw it away.

    Fresh eggs’ shells are rough and chalky; old eggs are smooth and shiny.

    To determine if an egg is hard-boiled, spin it. If it spins, it is
    hard-boiled. If it wobbles, it is raw.

    Egg shells can be easily removed from hard-boiled eggs if they are boiled in
    salty water and quickly rinsed in cold water.

    No “curly” bacon for breakfast when you dip it into cold water before frying.

    Keep bacon slices from sticking together; roll the package into a tube shape
    and secure with rubber bands.

  • OEUF BROUILLES A LA MICHEL GUERARD

    Recipe By :
    Serving Size : 2 Preparation Time :0:00
    Categories : Cheese/eggs Breakfast

    Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
    ——– ———— ——————————–
    4 lg Eggs
    2 ts Butter
    1 tb Creme fraiche
    4 tb Finely chopped shallots
    1 t Finely chopped chives
    Salt and pepper
    2 oz Caviar
    8 Long thin pieces of bread
    – toasted

    CUT EACH EGG SHELL about 1/2-inch from its pointed end
    with a serrated knife (surgical scissors work well
    too). Pour out the insides into a bowl. Wash the tops
    and shells in warm water, then turn them upside down
    on a towel to dry completely. Over very low heat melt
    the butter in a saucepan just large enough to hold the
    eggs. Beat the eggs with a whisk, pour through a sieve
    into the warm butter and return to the very low heat.
    Beat constantly with the whisk, gradually increasing
    the heat, until the eggs are thick and creamy, but not
    solid. Remove the eggs immediately from the heat and
    continue whisking while adding the creme fraiche,
    shallots, chives, salt and pepper. Place the dried
    eggshells in egg cups (or in a mound of coarse salt on
    a plate). Using a teaspoon, carefully fill each shell
    3/4 full with the creamed eggs, then finish filling
    each shell with a tablespoon of caviar. Replace the
    tops of the shells or garnish with some long stalks of
    chives, if you wish. Serve with toast.

    1/2 c Soft bacon bits*

    * (don’t use the crunchy kind) it looks too dry add a little more)
    This is the receipt that was on the BB from CELESTE BEATIE (TDFX72B).
    I don’t deserve any credit for this wonderful bread.
    Celeste used the DAK Auto Bakery and I use the DAK Turbo on the turbo
    cycle. Turned out great. It is heavy (2 1/2 lbs.) I also used the
    crunchy bacon bits but I soaked them in warm water for about 30
    minutes. Only had to add 2 Tbsp of water to the 1-1/4 cup. All that
    like this should thank CELESTE. FROM: C HAROLD QUINN (FPHK52A)

    ——– ———— ——————————–
    1 lb Monk fish
    -or other firm fish
    1 Yellow squash
    1 Green bell pepper
    1 Red bell pepper
    Cherry tomatoes
    Bay leaves
    Cooked brown rice or
    Pita bread
    Lemon wedges
    Sprigs of mint
    —–CHERMOULLA—–
    4 sm Garlic cloves, minced
    1 t Ground cumin seeds
    1/2 ts Sweet Hungarian paprika
    1/8 ts Cayenne
    1 pn [generous] saffron
    1/4 c Chopped fresh cilantro
    1/4 c Fresh lemon juice
    3/4 c Olive oil
    Salt
    Black pepper

    This is a very colorful and tasty arrangement of
    marinated and then skewered and grilled vegetables and
    fish. The marinade, called chermoulla, is a blend of
    fragrant seasonings, oil, and lemon juice. In this
    version I’ve suggested my favorite vegetables for
    kebabs. You should choose your own favorites; some
    other good choices are eggplants, mushrooms, and
    onions. special equipment: skewers (if you are using
    bamboo skewers, soak them in water for 1/2 hr. and
    fill them out to the ends so the skewers won’t burn)

    Combine the ingredients for the chermoulla. Cut the
    fish into 1-inch cubes. Similarily, cut the
    vegetables into 1-inch cubes. Place the fish and
    vegetables in the chermoulla and marinate,
    refrigerated, for 2 hours.
    When you are ready to assemble the kebab, soften the
    bay leaves in boiling water for several minutes.
    Alternate the tomatoes, peppers, yellow squash, and
    fish on skewers. Place a bay leaf occasionally on the
    skewers next to the fish. Reserve the chermoulla.
    Cover the broiler pan with foil and plkace the
    kebabs on it about an inch apart. Broil for 15 to 20
    minutes, basting with the reserved chermoulla, and
    turning frequently to cook evenly.
    Serve on rice or in pita bread and garnish with
    lemon wedges and sprigs of mint. From Sundays at
    Moosewood Restaurant
