TANGY MUSHROOM MISO GRAVY

1 lb mushrooms
1 T balsamic vinegar
3 cups water
1/4 cup brown rice miso
1 T tamari
1/2 cup nutritional yeast
1 t celery seed
fresh ground black pepper
1/4 cup cornstarch
1/4 cup water

Wash and slice the mushrooms. Saute mushrooms with the balsamic
vinegar in a large skillet until fully cooked. Remove mushrooms from
skillet and set aside. Keep the mushroom liquid in the skillet.

Add 3 cups water, miso, tamari, and nutritional yeast to the skillet.
Whisk until thoroughly blended and simmer for a few minutes. Add
celery seed and black pepper to taste. Add mushrooms.

Mix together cornstarch and 1/4 cup water in a cup. Make sure the
cornstarch is fully dissolved. With skillet over medium heat, add the
cornstarch suspension to the gravy a little at a time. Stir
continually. When gravy reaches desired thickness, cook for a minute
longer and then serve immediately.

Note: If you want to make this ahead, make up the miso-mushroom
mixture as described but do not add cornstarch. When you are ready to
serve it, heat up the miso-mushroom mixture and thicken before serving.

Makes 4 cups. Nutritional info per 1/4 cup serving:

28 calories, 0.4 grams fat, 13.3%CFF, 210 mg sodium.

This nutritional info is slightly off since brown rice miso has less
fat than regular miso (the above nutritional analysis assumes regular
miso).

3/4 c Butter, unsalted; softened
1/2 c Sugar
1 Egg
1 tb Lemon peel; finely grated
1 ts Vanilla
1/4 ts Salt
2 1/4 c Flour, all purpose; unsifted
1 tb Water; (use 2 if req’d)

Gradually beat in flour until thoroughly incorporated. Add water, a
few drops at a time, only until dough starts to come away from side
of bowl. Wrap dough in plastic wrap. Refrigerate until firm, about 2
hours.

Preheat oven to 350øF. Lightly grease 4 cookie sheets. On lightly
floured surface, roll out dough to 1/8″ thickness. Cut out various
shapes using cookie cutters or homemade cardboard patterns, or
freehand. Reroll scraps and cut out. Make small holes with wooden
pick if planning to hang cookies. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until
beginning to brown around edges. Remove cookies to wire rack to cool
before decorating.

Prepare icing: Beat egg whites in small bowl with electric mixer until
foamy. Slowly beat in the powdered sugar. Continue to beat until
thick and creamy. Add just enough water to get a good spreading
consistency. Tint with food coloring, if you wish. Spread evenly over
cookies. Decorate with glitter, sprinkles, dragees and cinnamon red
hots, if desired.

Hummos

Recipe By : dean@underground.irhe.upenn.edu (Kareema Dean)
Serving Size : 15 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Sauces Fatfree

Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
——– ———— ——————————–
1 Lg Garbanzo Beans, Canned
1/2 Sm Onion
1 Garlic Clove — or 2, or
— a few tsp powder
2 Tsp Cumin
1 Tsp Coriander — or 2
1 Tsp Chili Powder — or cayenne
1 Tbsp Lemon Juice
1 tsp Vinegar
Salt — to taste
Parsley — minced

You can make a great hummos or babaganouj too without the tahina. Baba
ganouj tastes good with ff youghurt substituted for the tahina. My
“hummos” is below. It is really more of a chick pea dip/spread:

Throw it in the blender and blend! tada! If your spicing tastes are
picky, add 1/2 the spicing and then blend and taste and adjust from there.

I like things really spiced! But this is good as a dip or spread with
tomato or felafil (which is a great portable meal!)… which I hope y’all
know can be baked instead of fried!
