Moggy

Recipe By :
Serving Size : 1 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Cakes Ethnic

Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
——– ———— ——————————–
1 1/2 lb plain flour
3 ts baking powder
6 oz lard
6 oz margarine
8 oz golden syrup
8 oz sugar
1 salt
1 milk as necessary

Mix together the flour, salt and baking powder. Rub in the fats, add
the sugar and syrup. Mix to a stiff dough with milk. Shape into two
pieces 1″ thick . PLce on a greased baking tin and bake in a moderate
oven for about 25 mins, until firm and light brown. Cut and serve
thickly buttered.

Remarks: This recipe can be found in many very old books, and may have
come orm the Old Norse language, where a heap of corn was known as Mugi.
The
word can be traced back through early English, where corn was refered
to as Muge and later Muga. In it’s ealiest form, it was probably made
with yeast and honey instead of baking powder and syrup/sugar.

CRUST
2 cups flour, sifted
1 teaspoon baking powder
(“You don’t want a big rise.”)
1/3 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter
1/3 cup vegetable shortening
About 3/4 cup half-and-half
or milk

FILLING
7 cups sliced canned peaches, packed in
syrup, or ripe, fresh peaches
1/4 cup sugar, plus an additional 1/3 cup
if using fresh peaches
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1 cup (2 sticks) butter

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Butter an 8-inch square
baking dish. To prepare the crust, sift the flour, baking powder,
sugar, and salt into a large bowl. Using a wooden spoon, and in
small pieces, alternately cut the butter and shortening into the
flour mixture, until it resembles cornmeal in consistency. Slowly
add the half-and-half (or milk), mashing the mixture with a fork
and using only enough liquid to make the dough soft. Turn the
dough out onto a floured surface and, with your hands, knead for
30 to 45 seconds. Separate the dough into 2 portions, making one
portion slightly (10 to 15 percent) larger than the other. Set
aside.

To prepare the peach mixture, if using canned peaches, drain
the syrup from both cans, reserving 1/4 cup. (If using fresh
peaches, make a sugar syrup by combining 1/3 cup water and
1/3 cup sugar in a saucepan. Bring the mixture to a boil,
stirring continuously, then lower the heat to a simmer and
continue to stir for 5 minutes or until it coats the back of a
wooden spoon. Remove from the heat and cool.)

Place the peaches in a large bowl and sift the sugar, nutmeg,
and cinnamon over them. Mix well. Pour half the peach mixture
into the prepared baking dish and dot with half the butter. Roll
out the smaller portion of dough and place over the peaches. Pour
the second half of the peach mixture on top of the layer of dough.
Lightly drizzle the peach syrup (or sugar syrup) over the peaches.
Dot with the remaining butter. Roll out the remaining piece of
dough so that it is large enough to slightly overlap the baking
dish, and crimp the edges. Place the dough on top of the peaches,
allowing the excess to hang over the edge of the baking dish.
Place a large dish or bowl on the rack below the baking dish to
catch drips, and cook for 1 to 1 1/2 hours, until the top crust
is lightly browned all over. Serve with vanilla-spiked whipped
cream, ice cream, or as Jackson likes it, “just plain.”
Serves 6.

SQUID TERIYAKI

Recipe By :
Serving Size : 1 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Japanese Seafood
Ceideburg 2

Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
——– ———— ——————————–
3 lb Squid, cleaned and cut into
-rings
1/2 c Soy sauce
1/2 c Mirin, or 1/2 cup sherry
1/2 c Water
2 tb Sugar
1 t Cornstarch
Juice of 2 lemons

To make the terriyaki sauce, combine all the ingredients except the
cornstarch. Reserve half of the sauce, marinate the squid in the
other half for 1 hour.

Prepare the fire. Skewer squid pieces and tentacles. Heat the
reserved terriyaki sauce in a saucepan. When it begins to boil, add
the cornstarch dissolved in a little water. As soon as the sauce
thickens, remove from heat. As it cooks you will baste the squid
with this terriyaki sauce.

Grill the squid until it turns dark brown, 2 to 3 minutes per side,
depending on the heat, and then turn it over. Baste one last time
and then remove skewers from the fire. Serve over rice accompanied
with any remaining sauce.
