Title: Great-Grandmother Lillie’s Turnip Soup
Categories: Soups
Yield: 4 Servings

1 lb White turnips
1/2 lb Lean salt pork
1 qt Water
Salt pepper to taste
3 T White cornmeal or polenta
1/4 c Heavy cream (minimum 36 %
Milkfat)

Gently but thoroughly scrub the turnips under cold running
water. Trim off the root ends and the green tops. Young turnips do
not need to be peeled, but they may be peeled.
Cut turnips into slices a little thicker than a quarter of an
inch, set aside.
Rinse the salt pork and put it in a 3-quart soup kettle with the
water. Turn heat to medium-low and bring the water slowly to just
below the boiling point carefully skimming off the scum as it rises.
Lower the heat to a bare simmer and cook the pork gently for about an
hour.
Raise the heat to medium-high and add the sliced turnips. Let
the liquid come back to a boil, skim it again and then reduce the
heat to low. Simmer until the turnips are tender, about 20 to 30
minutes. Discard the pork and skim off any excess fat floating on top
of the broth.
Remove turnips with a slotted spoon. Cut a cup of them into
cubes and rub the remainder through a colander or food mill. Add
both of them back to the broth. Let the soup come back to a simmer,
taste, correct the salt and add a liberal grinding of black pepper.
Take the cornmeal or polenta meal in your hand, and stirring the
soup constantly, let the meal fall into the soup in a thin stream
between your fingers. Never stop stirring or the meal will lump up.
Let simmer, stirring constantly, until thickened. Leave it to simmer
for about five minutes more, then if you like, stir in the optional
cream. Heat through about two minutes more, then serve at once.

Title: Pizza Crust
Categories: Bread, Pizza, FP
Yield: 8 servings

3 c Flour
1/2 c Yellow cornmeal
1 pk Active dry yeast
1 tb Sugar
1/2 ts Salt
1 c -Water, cool
2 tb Olive oil

Recipe by: the California Culinary Academy Preparation Time: 1:30

1 . In a food processor fitted with a steel blade, process flour, cornmeal,
yeast, sugar, and salt just to blend.

2. With motor running, add water in a steady stream. Process until mixture
comes away from sides of work bowl. Process 30 seconds to knead dough. If
dough is sticky, add more flour and process 30 to 60 seconds longer. Dough
should feel tacky, smooth, elastic, and warm but not hot.

3. Remove dough from processor and shape into ball. Place ball in an oiled
bowl, turn to coat it with oil, and cover with plastic wrap or a damp
towel. Let dough rise until doubled in bulk, 30 to 60 minutes.

4. Punch dough down and divide it in half. Fit each piece into a 12-inch
pizza pan. Spread each with toppings of your choice.

Makes two 12-inch pizzas.

Notes – add fresh vegetables, bits of ham, grated cheese — whatever sounds
good — to make a gourmet pizza.

Title: Whipped Cream Graham Cake
Categories: Kids, Snacks
Servings: 6

1 pt (2 cups) heavy cream
2 tb Honey or sugar
32 Squares (16 rectangles) of
-graham crackers
Sprinkles

Beat cream with sweetener until stiff. Spread whipped cream heavily on one
square and place it on a platter. Spread cream heavily on a second square
and place it on top of the first. Continue until there is a stack of 4
squares. Press down gently on the top square so the cream squeezes out of
the sides. Spread the excess along the sides. Repeat the procedure until
there are eight stacks. Slide them together till sides touch to form a
rectangular cake of 2 squares by 4 squares. Use extra whipped cream to
smooth over all the tops. Refrigerate. Allowing it to chill several hours
before serving enables the crackers to soften. A dash of sprinkles over the
top adds a party flavor with adding much additional sugar.

Hint: Use a pressurized can of whipped cream if you don’t have the time or
inclination to whip the cream.
