Recipe By : Martha Rose Shulman’s Main-Dish Soups
Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:30
Categories : Soups

Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
——– ———— ——————————–
7 cups water
1 bay leaf
1 teaspoon salt — or to taste
6 cloves garlic, minced or put through press
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
OR
1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
2 teaspoons olive oil
1/4 pound fusilli — about 1-1/2 cups *
1 pound broccoli, broken into florets
freshly ground pepper to taste
2 medium eggs
1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan or Gruyere
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley — or 3T
garlic croutons for garnish — optional

1. Combine the water, bay leaf, and salt in a soup pot and bring to a simmer.
Add the garlic, thyme, and olive oil, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes.
Add the fusilli and broccoli, turn up the heat slightly, and continue to
simmer, uncovered, until the fusilli is cooked al dente, about 10 minutes.
Note: If you want the broccoli to be crisper, add it to the soup five minutes
after the fusilli. [I added broc about 3 min after fusilli.]
2. Beat the eggs in a bowl and stir in the cheese and parsley. Ladle some
soup into the eggs and stir together.
Turn off the heat under the soup and stir the egg mixture into the soup pot.
Stir for a minute and serve, garnishing each bowl with croutons if desired.
* White or multi-colored fusilli will be prettiest.

SPANOKOPITA Greek spinach and cheese pie

Recipe By : Mimi Hiller
Serving Size : 8 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Appetizer Greek
Mc

Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
——– ———— ——————————–
2 lbs fresh spinach
1 lb filo dough
1/2 lb feta cheese
7 eggs
1 onion — diced

Dice the onion and saute it until golden brown. While the onion is cooking,
wash the spinach. Put it in a bowl and rub lots of salt into it. Let the
spinach/salt sit for 15 minutes. This is meant to reduce the volume of
spinach. An alternative to this is to barely steam the spinach (30-60
seconds). Beat the eggs. Crumble the feta cheese and add to the eggs.
(Note that feta cheese is fairly salty.You can replace half or all of it
with ricotta cheese.) Rinse all the salt out of the spinach. Add it and the
onions to the eggs/cheese and mix. Also add some spices. The original
recipes calls for salt, pepper, and oregano.I use basil. Melt some butter
(at least 2 oz .) Butter the bottom of a 9×13 inch baking dish. Lay the
filo down one layer at a time, brushing butter on each layer. Turn each
successive layer a little so they are not all piled directly on top of each
other. The filo will hang over the sides of the dish. Continue until you
have 3-5 sheets of filo left. Pour the filling into the filo. Fold the filo
that hangs over the side over the filling. Place the last pieces of filo on
top, buttering each as you go. Trim off the filo that hangs over the edge
of the dish. These last pieces serve to cover the filling. Make two or
three slits with a knife in the top layers of filo that go all the way down
to the filling. Bake at 375 for 50 minutes.=20
I searched high and low for the perfect spanakopita. This was darn near
perfection. This recipe is from the Vegetarian Epicure by Anna Thomas.=
