Title: Marinated Peppers
Categories: Canning, Preserving, Vegetables
Yield: 9 half-pints

4 lb Firm peppers*
1 c Bottled lemon juice
2 c White vinegar (5 percent)
1 tb Oregano leaves
1 c Olive or salad oil
1/2 c Chopped onions
2 Garlic cloves; quartered
— (optional)
2 tb Prepared horseradish
— (optional)

Yield: About 9 half-pints.

(Bell, Hungarian, Banana, or Jalapeno)

* Note: It is possible to adjust the intensity of pickled jalapeno
peppers by using all hot jalapeno peppers (hot style), or blending with
sweet and mild peppers (medium or mild style).

For hot style: Use 4 lbs jalapeno peppers.

For medium style: Use 2 lbs jalapeno peppers and 2 lbs sweet and mild
peppers.

For mild style: Use 1 lb jalapeno peppers and 3 lbs sweet and mild
peppers.

Procedure: Select your favorite pepper. Caution: If you select hot
peppers, wear rubber or plastic gloves while handling them or wash hands
thoroughly with soap and water before touching your face.

Peppers may be left whole. Large peppers may be quartered. Wash, slash
two to four slits in each pepper, and blanch in boiling water or blister
in order to peel tough-skinned hot peppers.

Peppers may be blistered using one of the following methods: Oven or
broiler method: Place peppers in a hot oven (400 degree F) or broiler
for 6-8 minutes or until skins blister. Range-top method: Cover hot
burner, either gas or electric, with heavy wire mesh. Place peppers on
burner for several minutes until skins blister.

Allow peppers to cool. Place in pan and cover with a damp cloth. This
will make peeling the peppers easier. After several minutes of cooling,
peel each pepper. Flatten whole peppers. Mix all remaining ingredients
in a saucepan and heat to boiling. Place 1/4 garlic clove (optional) and
1/4 teaspoon salt in each half pint or 1/2 teaspoon per pint. Fill jars
with peppers, add hot, well-mixed oil/pickling solution over peppers,
leaving 1/2-inch headspace.

Adjust lids and process according to the recommendations in Table 1.

Table 1. Recommended process time for Marinated Peppers in a
boiling-water canner.

Title: Gak Recipe
Categories: Playdoh, Kids
Yield: 1 Servings

JEANNE LUPIEN (DNDG63B)
Solution A:
1 1/2 cups warm water
2 cups elmers white glue
Food coloring
Mix together until
–completely dissolved
Solution B:
4 teaspoons borax
1 1/3 cups warm water
Mix together until
–completely dissolved

Pour solution A into Solution B. Do not mix!
Lift Gak out and knead into shape.

Here are some tips: Borax can be found in the laundry detergent
section of a grocery store- such as “20 Mule Team”
If you are going to half the recipe… use only half of Solution A
and mix the whole amount of Solution B. The results will be the
same. This is important..This is the only way you can half the
recipe. Do not double the recipe and do not reuse Solution B (the
borax and water), use only Elmer’s glue.(Copied from Jean Lockhart
who credits this from Lynn Daly over a year ago)

POSOLE

Recipe By :
Serving Size : 12 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Mexican Soups
Main Dish

Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
——– ———— ——————————–
2 lb Pork roast,cut in chunks
1/2 lb Pork rinds (skins)
2 ea Pork shanks or pigs feet
1 tb Salt
2 c Posole
1 t Oregano
2 ea Cloves garlic, mashed
2 tb Chopped onion
4 ea Red chili pods,remove seeds

Place meat and pork rinds and pork shanks in a large
kettle and add about 5 quarts of water or enough to
cover meat. Add approximately 1 tablespoon salt and
bring to a boil. Cook over medium heat for about 1 1/2
hours. Remove excess grease and set aside. Reserve
liquid. Wash the posole very carefully until the water
is clear so as to remove lime from kernels. Put in
large kettle and cover with water. Boil until posole
has popped. Mix meat, posole, rind and shanks or pigs
feet. Add oregano, garlic, onion and chili pods. Let
simmer for about 1/2 hour. Posole may be served as a
main dish with hard rolls, tortillas or crackers.
Additional red chili sauce may be added at serving
time for more spice. NOTE:Posole can be found in
the meat section if it is available in your area, if
not available, hominy can be substituted in the same
quantities but no rinsing or pre-cooking is needed.
The posole will lose its authenticity but none of its
tastiness if pork rinds, pork shanks or pigs feet are
omitted. You can also add one can of tomatoes to
enhance the flavor.

GOOSEBERRY BURNT CREAMS

Recipe By :
Serving Size : 8 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Fruits Desserts

Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
——– ———— ——————————–
1 lb Tart green gooseberries
4 oz Caster sugar (or more)
5 oz Granulated sugar
1/2 lb Fromage blanc or quark*
1/2 pt Double cream

*Note: Creamy Greek yoghurt may also be used instead
of fromage blanc or quark. Choose a heavy-based
saucepan with a large surface area. Put the topped and
tailed gooseberries into it, still moistened by the
water in which they have been rinsed. Cover and cook
over very low heat until the fruit is perfectly
tender. (It does not matter if the berries collapse in
cooking here as they will be crushed to a pulp for
serving.) Crush the cooked fruit with a potato masher
and cook for several minutes more, without the lid but
just stirring occasionally, until most of the juices
have evaporated leaving a thick fruit puree. Add
caster sugar to taste and stir until melted. Spoon
the puree into 8 individual cocotte dishes and leave
until cold. Beat the fromage blanc, quark or yoghurt
into the cream until smoothly mixed then whisk until
fairly stiff. Spoon the creamy mixture over the cold
puree and level the tops. Cover and chill in the
freezer for about 45 minutes until the cream firms up.
Dissolve the granulated sugar in 1 tablespoon warm
water in a pan placed over low heat. Then turn the
heat up and cook until the sugar carmelises to a rich
shade of gold. Quickly pour the burnt sugar evenly
over the chilled creams and set aside for 20 minutes
or so until the caramel sets in thin brittle sheets of
gold.
