  • INDONESIAN-STYLE YOGURT RICE

    Recipe By :
    Serving Size : 1 Preparation Time :0:00
    Categories : Indonesian Rice
    Ceideburg 2

    Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
    ——– ———— ——————————–
    1 c Arborio rice (240g)
    1/2 ts Saffron threads
    1 md Onion, minced
    2 Garlic cloves, minced
    3 tb Oil
    1 Inch piece fresh ginger,
    -grated
    1 c Milk (240ml)
    1 c Plain yogurt, room
    -temperature (1/2 pt.)
    Salt pepper

    It’s only touted as “Indonesian-style” but what the
    hay…

    As is the case with most Southeast Asian and South
    African yellow rice dishes, the coloring agent called
    for here was turmeric, not saffron. Yogurt appears in
    many Indian saffron dishes, however, and I suspected
    saffron would work well here. It does. You can
    substitute California pearl rice successfully.

    Heat 1/4 cup of milk and steep threads for 20 minutes.
    Saute onion and garlic in oil. Add ginger and rice
    and coat grains well. Add the rest of the
    ingredients, including the saffron. Season with salt
    and pepper and cover. Cook over low heat until rice
    is done. Serve immediately.

  • Mm Cake

    Recipe

    Date: Sun, 19 Dec 93 22:18:48 EST
    From: Bill Sallee

    The following recipe is based on Lu’s Honey Molasses Cake which in turn
    was based on Betty Johnson’s Honey Bread (so it neither contains honey
    nor is a bread and is vegan!).

    M M Cake (vegan)

    3 1/2 c. flour
    1 t. baking soda
    1/2 t. salt
    2 t. cinnamon
    1/2 c. Sucanat (should be available in hfs or coop)
    1 c. non-fat soy-milk (I used Health Valley Fat-Free Soy Moo)
    3/4 c. dark molasses (I used Grandma’s Molasses “robust flavor”
    with the green label)
    3/4 c. pure maple syrup

    Mix flour, soda, salt and cinnamon together into large bowl. Mix in
    Sucanat. Add soy-milk, molasses, and maple syprup to dry ingredients; ;
    mix till well blended. Bake in a large loaf pan at
    275 F for 1 hour and 40 minutes. Wrap tightly in plastic wrap and foil
    and let age 5 days (in refrigerator) before
    cutting.

  • Mock Crab Roe

    Recipe

    Title: Mock Crab Roe
    Categories: Chinese, Seafood, Ceideburg 2
    Yield: 1 batch

    1/4 lb Fresh filet of sole, plaice
    -(flounder) or cod
    6 Egg yolks
    2 Level tablespoons chopped
    -spring onions (scallions),
    -white parts only
    1 ts Sesame oil
    1/4 Level teaspoon MSG
    -[optional, as usual. S.C.]
    1/4 Level teaspoon salt
    1/8 Level teaspoon white pepper
    Fat for deep-frying
    5 tb Soy sauce
    3 tb Vinegar

    “When the crab season ended, people were loath to give up the idea of
    being without crab. The following recipe is an excellent dish, but a
    poor substitute for the heady concentrate of roe found in the furry-
    clawed crabs of the Yangtse lakes.”

    Steam the fish for 10 minutes and flake it gently. Mix the egg yolks
    together with the spring onions, sesame oil, MSG, salt and white
    pepper. Add the fish and mix it in. Fry tablespoons of the mixture
    in fairly deep fat, until the sides are almost brown or pinkish gold.
    The fat will foam, but this cannot be helped. The final texture must
    be firm. Serve hot with a separate dish of soy sauce mixed with
    vinegar. Excellent with warmed wine.
