" A delicious, thick, creamy, crab soup from Scotland.

heavy-bottomed saucepan. Add the rice and anchovy
fillets. Simmer until the rice is well done. Remove

Polenta

The basics:
X Cups cornmeal (polenta)
4X Cups water
salt to taste

The standard method:
In a heavy saucepan, bring the water to a boil. Add the
salt. Stiring constantly, pour the cornmeal into the water
in a steady stream. Reduce heat to a slow simmer. Continue
to cook, stirring contantly, until the porrige becomes very
thick (The spoon can stand in it). Scrape the polenta into
a non-stick pan or ceramic dish (or some container which will
release it when it cools). Cool completely. The polenta
will be like a loaf. To serve it, cut into slices, heat in
the oven, serve with whatever topping you desire.

The quickie method:
Boil the water on the stove. Pour it into a large
microwave-safe bowl add the salt. Stiring constantly, pour
the cornmeal into the water in a steady stream. Cook the
polenta in a microwave on medium power for (2-5 minutes, longer
for a larger serving). Remove from the microwave stir
vigourously. It will not cook evenly this stirring helps
prevent lumps. Repeat this process until the polenta is
thick then proceed as above.

The really quickie method:
Boil the water, toss in the salt cornmeal
microwave on medium power for 5-8 minutes (depending on
quantity). Remove from microwave stir like crazy to smash
all of the lumps. Repeat if you need to thicken it some more,
stir, and live with the few remaining lumps.

HOPPIN’JOHN – NEW STYLE

Recipe By :
Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Vegetarian Southern
Low-fat Main dish

Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
——– ———— ——————————–
2 c Black-eyed Peas, cooked
1/2 c Rice, white or brown
1 1/2 c Water
1/2 c Celery, chopped
1/2 c Onion, chopped, or
1/4 c Green pepper, chopped
4-5 green spring onions, chp
4 oz Mushrooms, sliced, canned
2 ts Poultry Seasoning
4 Tomatoes, crushed
1/2 ts Red pepper, crushed (opt)

Directions: Combine ingredients in a stockpot or
crockpot, and cook until rice is done, about 45
minutes to 1 hour. A little more liquid may have to be
added. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking as the
mixture thickens whichever method is used. In
crockpot, cook about 4 hours on high, and 6-7 hours on
low heat.

Cook’s Note: In any authentic Southern cookbook,
there will almost always be a recipe for Hoppin’ John,
which is basically a combination of rice and black-
eyed peas. To this basic recipe, each cook will add
his/her personal touches and I have added mine. White
rice is traditional, but brown rice has more fiber.
Tomatoes are optional. Mushrooms are a modern touch.
In some areas, red pepper sauce or tabasco sauce
replaces the crushed red pepper. In Texas, Purple
Hull peas are frequently used, with Picante Sauce
served on the side. In Louisiana, Red Beans and Rice
are the popular combination. In other places, is found
the combination of black beans and rice as the popular
dish.

Title: Psomi’: Greek homemeade white bread
Categories: Breads, Yeast, Ethnic
Yield: 5 loaves

5 lb Flour, + or – if needed
3 Yeast cakes
1 c Warm water
1/2 lb Margarine softened
1 c Oil
1 c Milk, more if necessary
1 ts Salt
1/2 c Sugar
1 ts Cinnamon
3 Or 4 eggs ( optional
Egg wash: 1 egg/1 Tbs. milk
Increase if needeed

As you can see by previous Greek bread recipes, the
Greek Housewives made plenty of bread. These recipes
are directly from Greece and are in fairly large
quantity.However this and other bread recipes can
easily be halved for the smaller hosehold. All yeast
breads freeze well too.

Crumble yeast in the warm water and let dissolve. Beat
the margarine until light and mix into the flour and
yeast mixture. Then stir in the oil, sugar, salt,
cinnamon, eggs if using ( a lighter baked good ) and
the milk, adding “ more if needed” to produce a
kneadable nonsticky dough. Knead smooth and elastic.
Cover in a large bowl and let rise double. Punch down
and let rise double again. Shape into 5 loaves and
place in pans. Beat egg and milk together and brush
loaves. Slash top of each bread. Bake 400 for 15
minutes and then 375 for 30 to 40 minutes or until
golden and done. Recipe can be halved easily.
