——– ———— ——————————–
2 Lb.s cornstarch
3 3/4 c Water

WARNING: Non-Edible
green food coloring
Add food coloring to the water to desired color, stir into the
cornstarch. When the cornstarch is dissolved, drop the whole batch
onto a tray for the child to play with.
This is almost a liquid, so makes a fun change from other doughs.
Clean up is the easiest of all doughs, as when it dries it is simply
swept up.
Any that is left can be plaed in a clean glass jar and let dry. It
can then be reconstituted by simply adding water.

    Recipe

    GARBANZO BEAN STEW

    Recipe By :
    Serving Size : 6 Preparation Time :0:00
    Categories : Stews

    Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
    ——– ———— ——————————–
    2 lb Dried garbanzo beans
    10 c Water
    4 lb Stew beef or venison, cut
    -into 1-inch cubes
    1 sm Onion, chopped
    1 t Salt
    1/2 ts White pepper

    Soak the garbanzo beans overnight in twice their volume of water. The
    beans will absorb much of the water and swell in size. The following
    day, drain and rinse the beans under cold running water. Place the
    beans in a large pot with the 10 cups of water. Bring to a boil over
    high heat, reduce the heat to low, and simmer, uncovered, 1 1/2
    hours, stirring occasionally to prevent burning. Add the meat,
    onions, salt, and pepper, stir well and continue cooking another 2
    hours until the meat is tender and the beans are fully cooked.
    Serve hot with one of the many Indian breads, for example, Indian
    Tortillas, Adobe Bread, or Piki Bread. ***** Margaret Archuleta of
    Picuris Pueblo taught me the recipe for this simple and satisfying
    stew made with garbanzo beans. I first tasted it while celebrating
    New Year’s Day with her family.

    3 tb Brandy
    1/2 c Golden raisins
    12 oz Semisweet chocolate
    7 oz Unsalted butter
    5 Eggs — separated
    1 lb Puff pastry
    2 c Sugar
    16 Cream puffs, filled
    -(with pastry cream)
    2 c Whipping cream

    To plump raisins, heat brandy and raisins over low heat. Set aside to soak.
    Chop 9 ounces chocolate in small pieces. Melt with butter in top of double
    boiler over barely simmering water. When melted, remove immediately and
    whisk in egg yolks. Add plumped raisins. Beat egg whites until soft peaks
    form. Fold into chocolate-raisin mixture. Cover and chill 3 to 4 hours or
    overnight. Roll puff pastry into 12-inch circle about 1/4-inch thick.
    Pierce with fork. Let rest 25 minutes. Place on baking sheet and bake at
    450F until golden brown, about 15 to 20 minutes. Caramelize sugar in heavy
    skillet until golden brown. Do not overbrown. Remove immediately from heat.
    Using fork, quickly dip one half of each cream puff into caramel and place
    on buttered parchment paper. When caramel has set, dip uncoated half in
    caramel. Cool. Place caramel-coated cream puffs around puff pastry. Fill
    center with chilled chocolate filling. Melt remaining 3 ounces chocolate.
    Whip cream until soft peaks form. Fold melted chocolate into half of
    whipped cream. Set aside. Spoon remaining half of whipped cream into pastry
    bag fitted with a large round tube. Pipe dome-shaped balls in rows over
    chocolate filling, leaving spaces between rows. Repeat, using chocolate
    whipped cream, filling in spaces between rows of white whipped cream to
    create stripes.
