    KLOPS (MEAT-EGG LOAF)

    Recipe By :
    Serving Size : 6 Preparation Time :0:00
    Categories : Beef Jewish

    Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
    ——– ———— ——————————–
    2 lb Beef, minced
    3 sl Bread — soaked
    OR I tried:
    1/2 c Bread crumbs, Italian
    2 Egg
    4 oz Parsnips — grated
    1/2 c Stock
    1 Carrot — grated
    2 Onion — chopped*
    2 Garlic clove — crushed
    1 d Nutmeg
    1 d Allspice
    Salt
    Pepper
    1 tb Parsley — chopped
    6 Egg — hard-boiled, peeled
    Margarine

    Mix all the ingredients except the hard-boiled eggs
    and the margarine. Put half the mixture into a
    well-greased loaf pan (I found that I didn’t need to
    oil the pan), then put the whole hard-boiled eggs in a
    row down the middle of the meat and cover with the
    remaining meat mixture. Dab the top with margarine as
    desired: a lot if the meat is lean, very little if it
    is fat. Bake for 15 minutes in a 500 F. oven, then
    reduce the heat to 350 F. for about 45 minutes, until
    brown on top. Serve warm or cold in thick slices so
    the egg centers each piece.

    SWEET DOUGH FOR PIES

    Recipe By : BAKERS’ DOZEN (NICK MALGIERI) SHOW #BD1A18
    Serving Size : 1 Preparation Time :0:00
    Categories :
    Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
    ——– ———— ——————————–
    One crust pie — about 10 ounces
    dough:
    1 1/4 cups all purpose bleached flour
    1/4 cup sugar
    1/4 teaspoon baking powder
    1/8 teaspoon salt
    4 tablespoons cold unsalted butter — (1/2 stick)
    1 large egg
    Two crust pie — about 1 1/4 pounds
    dough:
    2 1/2 cups all purpose bleached flour
    1/2 cup sugar
    1/2 teaspoon baking powder
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    8 tablespoons cold unsalted butter — (1 stick)
    2 large eggs

    To mix the dough by hand, combine flour, sugar, salt and baking powder in a
    medium
    mixing bowl and stir well to mix. Cut butter into 1 tablespoon pieces and
    add to dry ingredients. Toss
    once or twice to coat pieces of butter. Then using your hands or a pastry
    blender, break the butter
    into tiny pieces and pinch and squeeze it into the dry ingredients.
    Occasionally reach down to the
    bottom of the bowl and mix all the ingredients evenly together. Continue
    rubbing the butter into the
    dry ingredients until the mixture resembles a coarse ground corn meal and no
    large pieces of butter
    remain visible.
    Beat the egg (s) in a small bowl and pour over the flour and butter mixture.
    Stir in with a fork until the
    dough begins to hold together, but still appears somewhat dry. Scatter a
    teaspoon of flour on the
    work surface and scrape the dough out onto it. Press and knead the dough
    quickly 3 or 4 times, until
    it is smooth and uniform.
    To mix the dough in the food processor, combine flour, sugar, salt and
    baking powder in work bowl
    fitted with metal blade. Pulse 3 times at 1second intervals to mix. Cut
    butter into 1tablespoon pieces
    and add to work bowl. Process, pulsing repeatedly at 1second intervals,
    until the mixture is fine and
    powdery, resembles a coarse ground cornmeal and no large pieces of butter
    remain visible, about 15
    pulses in all.
    Add the egg (s) to the work bowl and pulse ten times or so, until the dough
    forms a ball.
    Scatter a teaspoon of flour on the work surface and scrape the dough out
    onto it. Press and knead
    the dough quickly 3 or 4 times, until it is smooth and uniform.
    Press the dough into a disk (two equal disks for the larger amount of
    dough). Sandwich the disk (s) of
    dough between two pieces of plastic wrap and press it into a 6 inch circle.
    Refrigerate the dough until
    firm, or until you are ready to use it, at least 1 hour.
    Storage: Keep the dough in the refrigerator up to two days, or freeze it
    doublewrapped in plastic.
    Because the dough is thin, it will defrost quickly at room temperature when
    you intend to use it.
    Variations:
    SPICE CRUST:
    Add 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon and 1/4 teaspoon each freshly grated nutmeg
    and ground cloves
    to the dry ingredients before mixing in the butter. Double the quantities
    for the 2 crust recipe.
    COCOA DOUGH:
    Add 2 tablespoons sifted non alkalized cocoa powder to the dry ingredients
    before mixing in the
    butter. Double the quantities for the 2 crust recipe. If the dough seems dry
    after adding egg (s), add a
    teaspoon or two of water, no more.

  • Reddened Rice

    Recipe

    Date: Tue, 20 Sep 94 07:59:35 PDT
    From: Barbara Laufersweiler

    — Reddened Rice —

    Modified from “Prairie Fire Reddened Rice”, p.115 of _Coyote’s
    Pantry_ by Mark Miller and Mark Kiffin. The major differences are
    that I replaced the b*tt*r with water for the saute’, I like to
    toast the rice, and 1/3 cup (even 3 Tbsp) of chile powder is way
    too mouth-blistering with the “New Mexico” chile powder I got at
    the local Mexican grocery.

    Total time: about 45 minutes; 30 minutes unattended

    2 Cups white long-grain rice — try Texmati, they say
    2 cloves garlic / peeled and minced
    1/2 onion / peeled and minced
    4 1/2 Cups water
    1 tsp dried oregano
    1 tsp cumin
    (1 Tbsp minced fresh marjoram leaves — I never have these)
    2 scant Tbsp medium-hot pure chile powder
    — this may still be pretty hot
    1 tsp salt

    In a large pan or skillet over low heat, saute’ 2 cloves garlic and onion
    in a tablespoon or so of water, until soft and beginning to dry.
    Add rice and increase heat to medium-high; dry-toast until golden
    brown, stirring frequently. Add water and all remaining
    ingredients, bring to a boil, and cook for two minutes.

    Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20 to 25 minutes
    until the water has just evaporated. Remove from heat and let
    stand five minutes. Fluff up with a wooden spoon.

    GRANOLA BARS

    Recipe By :
    Serving Size : 1 Preparation Time :0:00
    Categories : Vegetarian

    Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
    ——– ———— ——————————–
    1 c Brown sugar
    1/2 c Light corn syrup
    1/2 c Melted margarine
    2/3 c Peanut butter
    2 ts Vanilla extract
    3 c Quick oats *
    1/2 c Sunflower seeds
    1/2 c Coconut
    1/3 c Wheat germ
    1/2 c Raisins
    1 c Carob chips
    Other nuts/dried fruits
    -you want to add

    *Note: (I substitute half quick oats and half crisped rice)

    Preheat the oven to 350 F. Grease the bottom of a 9×12 (9×13?) baking dish
    (glass works best). In a large bowl, combine the first 5 ingredients and
    stir well (it should be sort of a paste). Stir in remaining ingredients.
    You can add in whatever you want, so long as the mixture is sticking
    together in several large clumps. Press the mixture into the baking pan (
    you can use your fingers — it’s not very sticky). Bake at 350 for 15 – 20
    minutes (until it turns golden brown). Cool completely and cut into bars.
    Voila!
