    Maple Spice Cake

    Recipe

    Maple Spice Cake

    Recipe By :
    Serving Size : 1 Preparation Time :0:00
    Categories : Cakes From Scratch

    Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
    ——– ———— ——————————–
    2 To 2.5-In. Cinnamon Stick — -or-
    2 Teaspoons Ground Cinnamon
    1/2 Teaspoon Cardamom Seeds — (minus a pinch)
    1/2 Teaspoon Allspice Seeds
    12 Cloves
    1 Teaspoon Ginger Root — freshly grated
    3 3/4 Cups Cake Flour
    2 Teaspoons Baking Powder
    1 Teaspoon Baking Soda
    1 Teaspoon Salt
    1 Cup Unsalted Butter — at room temperature
    3/4 Cup Dark Brown Sugar
    3 Egg Whites — * see note
    3/4 Cup Buttermilk — or soy milk
    3/4 Cup Maple Syrup — (real)
    2 Tablespoons Grand Marnier

    * or equivalent quantity of artificial egg substitute

    Heat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.Use a tube cake pan or
    something along those lines, if you can find something with a
    removeable bottom. Butter (or margarine) it well, and lightly
    flour it, then tap the excess flour off.

    Combine all the spices except the ginger in an electric coffee
    grinder, and whiz it around until it’s powder. Mix the spices with
    the flour, baking powder soda, and salt (sift them together, or
    else make sure they are thoroghly mixed up).

    Mash up the margarine or butter with the sugar, beat in the egg
    whites, then stir in the ginger. Add everything else to the bowl with
    the butter and egg whites, and beat it for a long time until it’s
    smooth (add a bit of stuff at a time, not everything all at once).

    How long you cook it depends on your pan if you’re using a deep
    one, it may take 50 or 60 minutes, but if you’re using normal cake
    pans, it may only take a half hour. Anyway, keep an eye on it, and
    it’s done when it starts to pull away from the sides, and a toothpick
    poked into it comes out clean. Let it cool for 15 minutes or so before
    you remove it from the pan.

    Adapted by Ron Lunde, from:
    The Greens Cook Book

    My modifications to this recipe were to change 2 eggs into 3 egg
    whites (or artificial egg substitute) and to change the rum into grand
    marnier.

  • Title: Fava Bean and Salt Cod Salad
    Categories: Salads, Ceideburg 2
    Yield: 4 servings

    4 Ounces salt cod
    2 To 2 1/2 pounds young fava
    -beans, shelled, peeled
    1/4 c Olive oil
    2 tb Chopped fresh thyme or
    -winter savory
    1 ts Freshly ground black pepper
    1/2 ts Salt (optional)
    4 Ripe tomatoes, peeled,
    -seeded and chopped (about
    -1 cup)

    Here, fava beans are paired with salt cod in a rich and filling
    salad. To complement the rustic flavors of this dish, serve with
    toasted garlic-rubbed baguette slices and a soft goat cheese.

    Soak the salt cod overnight in a large bowl of cold water. The next
    day, drain the cod, add fresh water and let soak for 2 hours. Drain,
    add fresh water and let soak 2 hours longer. The amount of soaking
    time needed to leach the salt from the fish will vary.

    Bring 4 cups of water to a shimmering simmer in skillet just large
    enough to hold the fish. Add the fish and poach until barely cooked
    through (it should flake easily), about 5 minutes. Do not boil.
    Remove fish and drain well, then flake it.

    Cook the favas in 4 cups boiling water until just tender, about 10 to
    15 minutes. Drain.

    Combine the olive oil, thyme or savory, pepper and salt (if desired).
    Toss with the favas.

    Arrange equal portions of the dressed beans, flaked fish and chopped
    tomatoes on individual salad plates.

    Serves 4.

  • Stained Glass Candy

    Recipe

    Title: STAINED GLASS CANDY
    Categories: Candies
    Yield: 1 servings

    3 3/4 c White sugar
    1 1/2 c Lily white syrup (or Karo,
    -must be colorless)
    1 c Water
    -food coloring
    -oil based flavorings (I
    -use Wilton’s)
    -tin foil
    10 c -icing sugar (can be used
    -over and over)
    -sharp pair of scissors
    -candy thermometer

    Mix the white sugar, white syrup, and water in a
    medium sized pot. Add the food coloring you want
    (green for spearmint, orange for orange) Bring to a
    boil, and boil until candy thermometer reaches 300F
    degrees. (Can take up to 20 minutes) Stir to mix all
    the ingredients, but once it starts to boil, do not
    touch. Pot must be big enough to allow for double, as
    it rises as it boils

    While the candy mixture is boiling, shape a large
    piece of tin foil by folding up the sides and ends.
    (I use the large foil about 3 feet long) to create a
    large cookie sheet type shape. Put the icing sugar on
    the foil to completely cover it, and bank up the sides
    with icing sugar.

    When the candy mixture has reached 300F, remove from
    heat. Let sit about 10 seconds and stir to cool
    slightly (heavy emphasis on SLIGHTLY) Then add about 1
    to 1-1/2 tsp of the oil based flavorings depending on
    how strong you want the flavor. Stir until mixed (may
    boil a bit and DON’T stand over top of pot as flavor
    with escape in the air and up your nose!! 8-} ) Once
    flavoring is combined, pour mixture onto the icing
    sugar and use rubber spatula to scrape all mixture out
    of pot. Put pot,spatula and candy thermometer into
    sinkful of hot soapy water. If you allow it to harden
    you won’t be saying nice things about me at all!! 8-}
    As candy is cooling, keep checking by trying to pull
    up the edges. Once it gets to the consistency that you
    can lift it a little, start cutting it FAST! I cut off
    a chunk and then cut it up into bite-sized pieces. The
    outside will cool first so you have to watch it. If
    it hardens to quickly you will end up with a good size
    lollipop that you won’t be able to cut. It will
    shatter like glass. Continue working your way around
    until all is cut. Then I take all the candy and put it
    in a strainer that is sitting over a bowl. Shake some
    of the excess icing sugar off candy and allow to cool
    thoroughly. Pack in airtight containers. I find
    Zip-Loc Freezer bags pretty good. This recipe makes
    about 2 lbs candy. Once I have done all the flavors
    that I want, then I set up all the bags and put about
    10 of each flavor into a smaller zip-loc and seal.
    They make great Christmas gifts for family and all the
    various people you give to….mailman, garbage man,
    paperboy, school teachers, your kids friends..etc. I
    figure if the kids have to help me cut, they get some
    to give to their friends.. Besides.. makes a good
    bribe to get them to help!!
