Pizza On The Grill – Pizza Dough

Recipe By : GH, 8/96, pg 116
Serving Size : 8 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Main Dish Eat-Lf Mailing List
Low Fat

Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
——– ———— ——————————–
1 Pkg Active Baker’s Yeast
1 C Warm Water — 105 – 115 Deg F
Pinch Salt
2 1/4 Tsp Kosher Salt
1/4 C White Cornmeal — Fine-Ground
3 Tbsp Whole-Wheat Flour
1 Tbsp Olive Oil
2 1/2 C All-Purpose Flour — To 3 1/2 C,
— Unbleached

Dissolve yeast in the warm water with sugar.

After 5 minutes, stir in salt, cornmeal, whole-wheat flour, and oil.

Gradually add all-purpose flour, stirring with a wooden spoon until a stiff
dough has formed.

Place the dough on a floured board, and knead for several minutes, adding
only enough additional flour to keep dough from sticking.

When dough is smooth, transfer to a greased bowl. To prevent, transfer to a
greased bowl. To prevent a skin from forming, brush top of dough with
additional olive oil, cover bowl with plastic wrap, and let rise in warm
place, away from drafts, until doubled, 1 1/2 to 2 hrs.

Punch down dough. Knead dough several times on lightly floured board.
Return dough to bowl; cover and let rise 40 min.

Punch down dough. If sticky, knead in a bit more flour.

Makes enough for four 12 inch pizzas.

Well, as usual…I don’t follow directions. I didn’t do them on the grill
but in my oven. I cooked them at 475 deg F for 15 min. The dough was
probably the lightest and best that I have **ever** eaten. I topped one
with tomatoes, sweet anise, 1 T slivered almonds crushed, and sauteed
zucchini. Topped another with the Mushrooms with Mint and Lemon recipe I
posted earlier in the week. I gave half of the dough to Sally (my friend)
and she cooked them for dinner with her toppings.

SOPA DE FRIJOL NEGRO (BLACK BEAN SOUP)

Recipe By :
Serving Size : 1 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Soups/stews

Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
——– ———— ——————————–
1 lb Dried black beans
2 qt Cold water
2 c Coarsely chopped onion
1/2 c Coarsely chopped scallions,
-including green tops
3 md Cloves garlic, minced
1 ea Smoked ham hock
2 ea Bay leaves, crumbled
Salt to taste
1 t Freshly ground black pepper
1/2 ea Scotch bonnet-type chile,
-seeded
1/2 c Dark rum

Pick over the beans, rinse them, and put them in a
large heavy pot with the water. Cover the pot and
bring the water quickly to a boil. Stir the beans,
remove them from the heat, and allow them to sit for 1
hour. When the beans have softened, return the pot to
the heat, adding more boiling water if necessary. Then
add the remaining ingredients, with the exception of
the rum. Continue to cook, covered, over low heat for
several hours, until the beans are very tender and the
ham falls off its bone. Remove from the heat and
remove the ham hock bone and meat. Dice the meat
finely and discard the bone. Press the remaining
ingredients through a food mill, taste for seasoning,
and add the diced ham. At this point, the soup can
rest overnight in the refrigerator so that the flavors
mingle, or it can be served at once. To serve, reheat
the soup for 5 minutes while stirring in the rum. Side
dishes of lemon wedges, cooked white rice, minced
onion, or chopped hard-boiled eggs can be served as
garnishes. Serves 6.Subj: Frijoles SOPA DE FRIJOL NEGRO

Title: Mary Rogers’s Sourdough Biscuits
Categories: Breads
Yield: 4 servings

1/2 c Active Starter 3/4 ts Salt
1 c Milk 2 ts Baking Powder
2 1/2 c Flour 1/2 ts Baking Soda
1/3 c Lard or Shortening 1/4 ts Cream Of Tartar
1 tb Sugar

At bedtime make a batter of the half cup of starter, cup of milk, and 1 cup
of the flour. Let set overnight if the biscuits are wanted for breakfast.
If wanted for noon, the batter maybe mixed in the morning and set in a warm
place to rise. However, unless the weather is real warm, it is always all
right to let it ferment overnight. It will get very light and bubbly.
When ready to mix the biscuits, sift together the remaining cup and a half
of flour and all other dry ingredients except the baking soda. Work in the
lard or shortening with your fingers or a fork. Add baking soda dissolved
in a little warm water to the sponge and then add the flour mixture.
Mix into a soft dough. Knead lightly a few times to get in shape. Roll
out to about 1/2 inch thickness or a little thicker,and cut with a biscuit
cutter. Place close together in a 9 x 13-inch pan, turning to grease tops.
Cover and set in a warm place to rise for about 45 minutes. Bake in a 375
degree oven for about 30 to 35 minutes. Leftovers are good split and
toasted in a sandwich toaster.

Autumn Chutney

Recipe By : Country Harvest (a Celebration of Autumn)
Serving Size : 1 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Condiments Dips Fruits

Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
——– ———— ——————————–
1 lb. plums — halved and stoned
1 lb. apples — peeled and cored
1 lb. tomatoes — chopped
1 lb. onions — sliced
2 large garlic cloves — chopped
3 cups sultanas — (raisins)
1/4 tsp. mace
1/4 tsp. ground mixed spice
2 Tbsp. ground ginger
1 lb. light brown sugar

Mix the fruit and vegetables together. Put into an preserving pan (Note:
these books call for an aluminum pan – I just don’t use aluminum with acid
food ) Add the remaining ingredients, except the sugar. Simmer for about 30
minutes until tender. Add the sugar and stir until dissolved. Simmer gently,
stirring frequently, until thick. (Note: how long this takes depends on the
water content of the fruits).
Cool, then pack the chutney into clean jars. Cover and seal.
PS: I always refrigerate after opening the jar. "Gathering the produce of the
season as the days shorten, as the sun travels lower in the sky and the earth
quietens, is a deeply satisfying pastime. Making the most of the produce is
a pleasure, too, and this chutney brings several of the fruits of the season
together in a mouthwatering way.
