Set for dough cycle.Let the machine knead the dough once, and then
let the dough rise for only 20 minutes in the machine. Even if your
cycle runs longer, simply remove dough after 20 minutes and turn off
the machine. Divide the dough into the appropriate number of pieces.
Each piece should be rolled into a rope and made into a circle,
pressing the ends together. You may find it necessary to wet one end
slightly to help seal the ends together. Place these on a well
greased baking sheet, cover and let rise only 15 to 20 minutes.
Meanwhile, bring to a slight boil in a “nonaluminum pan”, (Donna
German uses a cast iron frying pan) about 2 inches of water.
Carefully lower about 3 or 4 bagels at a time into the water, cooking
for about 30 seconds on each side. Remove bagels, drain on a towel,
sprinkle with poppy seeds, sesame seeds or dried onion bits if
desired and place on the greased baking sheet. Bake in a preheated
550 degree oven for 8 minutes. This recipe is from Donna German’s
first Breadmachine Cookbook, pages 160- 161.

Title: Kay’s Favorite Meat Loaf
Categories: Diabetic, Meats, Main dish
Yield: 6 servings

1 Beef bouillion; 1/2 c Onion; chopped finely
1/2 c Boiling water 1/4 c Celery; chopped finely
2 sl Bread; crumbled fine 2 ts Worcestershire sauce;
1 1/2 lb 85% lean ground beef; 1 tb Catup
2 md Eggs; beaten slightly

Preheat oven to 350 f degree. Line a shallow 8-inch baking pan with
foil. Dissolve beef bouillion cube in boiling water in a large bowl.
Add all other ingrediets except the catsup and blend well with a
fork. Turn onto foil in pan and, with hands, shape quickly into a 6
by 4 1/2 inch by 2 inch loaf. With the dull edge of a knife make a
crisscross pattern across the top, spread with catup across the top.
Cover loaf with a tent of foil that does not touch the top. Bake 45
minutes. Remove foil; bake, uncovered, another 45 minutes. Remove
from oven and cool in pan for 2-3 minutes before serving. Using this
molded metheod instead of loaf pan allows the fat to drain from the
loaf, whereas a loaf pan retains fat.

FALSE FISH

Recipe By :
Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Vegetarian

Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
——– ———— ——————————–
7 oz Short Grain Rice
7 oz Red Lentils
1 Garlic, Clove, Chopped
1 Onion, Chopped
3 tb Herbs of your choice
Salt
1 Egg, Beaten
4 oz Fresh Breadcrumbs
Oil for Frying

False fish has no more to do with fish than Mock Goose
with goose, but it is a wondefully inventive dish that
resembles fried fish steaks.

Method: Boil the rice until cooked – about 20 minutes.
Meanwhile, cook the lentils, garlic and onion together
in as little water as possible. As soon as the rice
and lentils are just cooked, drain them, then stir
them together adding the herbs and salt. Press the
mixture into a 2 pint (1.2 litre) pudding basin. Fit a
Saucer into the basin on top of the mixture, weight it
down – a couple of tins will do nicely – and leave it
overnight. The following day, remove the mixture and
cut into slices. Coat the slices with egg, then
breadcrumbs and fry until golden. Serve with fresh
vegetables and parsley sauce.

HAMMIN DI PESACH (LAMB, MEATBALLS SPINACH FOR PASSOVER)

Recipe By :
Serving Size : 1 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Meats Italian
Holiday

Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
——– ———— ——————————–
1 Chicken breast (2 halves)
-ground
4 ts Olive oil
1 Egg — slightly beaten
2 tb Matza meal*
8 c Chicken broth
-salt
-freshly ground black pepper
1 d Nutmeg
2 1/2 lb Lamb,breast of or rib chops
2 Garlic cloves — sliced
2 Parsley, Italian sprigs

1 c -Warm water
2 lb Spinach,cooked and slightly
-drained
4 Matzot — regular, broken into
-large pieces

* Matza meal and Matzots may purchase in some supermarkets and Jewish
grocery stores.

(The word Hammin (or Hammim) is derived from the Hebrew adjective Ham or
warm which describes certain dishes that are kept warm for prolonged
periods of time…In Pitigliano, however Hammin was the classic one-course
meal for Passover that both rich and poor used to make. The only difference
between the versions was the in the cuts of meat used. Poor people used
breast of lamb..and meatballs made with beef (when the cost of ground beef
was a fraction of the cost of chicken.) People who didn’t have to worry
about the cost used tiny rib chops from baby lamb and chicken balls."

Combine ground chicken, 1 Tbsp olive oil, egg, matza meal and 2 Tbsp broth
in small bowl. Add salt, pepper and nutmeg to taste and mix well. In large
pot, place the lamb with remaining oil, sprinkle with 1 tsp salt and 1/4
tsp pepper and lightly brown for 2-3 minutes. Add garlic, parsley and 1 cup
of warm water. Form many tiny bowls with the ground chicken mixture and
gently add to pot with lamb. Cover and simmer 1 to 1/2 hours. Add spinach
and 1 Tsp salt and simmer, covered, 15 minutes longer. Transfer the lamb
chops, half the spinach and most of the gravy to a hot serving dish and
keep warm. Add remaining broth to pot and bring to a boil. Add matza pieces
and cook 4 to 5 minutes. Turn the heat off and let stand 5 minutes before
serving as a soup. Serve the lamb and spinach as the main dish. SERVES: 6-8
