Title: Kiffels
Categories: Cookies
Yield: 110 servings

5 c Flour
1 lb Butter
6 Egg yolks
2 Yeast
1 c Sour cream
1 ts Vanilla; or *note
1 Walnut filling for kiffels

Recipe by: Margaret Groman
Cut in flour and butter until pea size. Add remaining ingredients. Dough
may seem soft, but it must be chilled overnight before rolling out.

Divide dough into six balls or individual small balls.

Margaret’s notes: I make approximately 110-120 balls. Roll out in
granulated sugar (and some flour). Put nut filling, or apricot, or prune
filling, and roll up. Bake in 325 degree oven until golden brown.

MMMMM

I saw this recipe in a column by Laurel Flinders (Laurel’s
Kitchen) which formerly ran in the WASHINGTON POST. I think
this appeared about 9 years ago in response to a question
about how to enjoy a red wine which a reader had been given.
It has remained one of my favorite dishes through the years.
From the beginning, we adaped it to remove all added f*t.

Beans Bourgignon

1 large onion, chopped
1 large carrot, cut in half rounds
1 large potato, cubed
3 tbsp tomato paste
1 tsp dried thyme (use at least 1 tbsp if fresh)
2 bay leaves
1 1/2 c hearty red wine (more if using to saute)
(don’t skimp on quality here…I have, and it makes a
big difference…don’t use anything you wouldn’t drink)
4 cups cooked pinto beans
2 cloves of garlic, pressed
1/2 lb. mushrooms, sliced
2 + cups of water or hearty veggie broth (we flavor with dried
veggie broth and in the days prior to McD, with bovril or
another m**t broth)
salt and pepper to taste

Water-, veggie broth- or wine-saute the onions until translucent.
Add potatoes and carrots. Saute (soften) briefly before adding
water or broth, tomato paste, thyme and bay leaves.

Bring to a boil. Simmer until potato and carrot are cooked,
about 20 minutes, adding extra liquid as needed to keep
the vegs covered. Toward the end of cooking, add wine, beans,
garlic and salt to taste. Bring to a boil again and simmer 5
minutes.

Saute mushrooms and in your choice of liq, combine with bean
mixture and serve.

Great with crusty wheat bread and a salad. We also like this
over brown rice, and I have enjoyed it as a baked potato
topping.. BTW, it is better the second (and subsequent) day.
