Bread Machine Garlic Bagels
Recipe By : More Electric Bread
Serving Size : 8 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Abm Breakfast
Electric Bread
Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
——– ———— ——————————–
1 1/8 cups water — lukewarm
3 cups white bread flour — +1 tablespoon
3 1/3 tablespoons brown sugar
1 teaspoon salt
3/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
3 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast
1. Insert ingredients in bread machine according to manufacturer’s instruction
s. Remove the dough from the machine after the first knead – approximately 20
to 30 minutes.
2. Place dough on a floured surface. Divide into 8 parts. Form balls, gently
press thumb through center of ball and slowly stretch into bagel shape.
3. While bagels rise, bring three quarts of water and one tablespoon of sugar
to a rapid boil in a large saucepan. Drop test dough (see hints below).
4. Using a slotted spoon, drop 2-3 bagels into rapidly boiling water. Boil on
each side for 1/2 minutes. Remove and cool on rack 1 minute, brush with egg
and sprinkle with sesame or poppy seeds, if desired.
5. Bake at 400 on a baking sheet sprinkled with cornmeal, until golden – appro
ximately 15 minutes.
** Bagel Success Hints
** When forming the bagels, set aside two 1/4″ balls of dough. When the bagels
have doubled in size, drop the test dough into boiling water. The dough shoul
d pop to the top right away. When this happens, it is time to boil the bagels.
** A quick spray of non-stick vegetable coating on the top of the bagel may be
substituted for the egg wash.
** To make bagel sticks, cut bagel before rising and lay out in a straight line
. Roll sticks in a combination of sesame and poppy seeds with a pinch of garl
ic powder. Let sticks rise, boil, and bake as described in the above direction
s.
** To make bagel chips, slice leftover bagels horizontally into thin slices. B
ruish with butter or margarine on one side. Lay (butter side up) on an ungreas
ed cookie sheet and bake at 325 for 12-15 minutes until golden brown and crisp.

Tortilla Espanola
Recipe By : Cooking Live Show #8894
Serving Size : 1 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Cooking Live Import
Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
——– ———— ——————————–
1 cup olive oil
4 large potatoes — peeled and thinly
— sliced
salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 large onion — thinly sliced
4 large eggs
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh parsley
In a large heavy skillet heat the oil over moderate heat. Add the
potato slices, one at a time to prevent sticking, in a single layer.
Alternate potato layers with the onion slices and season with salt and
pepper. Cook the vegetables, lifting and turning the potatoes
occasionally, until tender but not brown.
In a large bowl beat the eggs with a fork. Transfer the tender
potatoes and onions to a colander to drain. Reserve 3 tablespoons of
the olive oil. Add the drained potatoes and onions to the eggs,
pressing down on the potatoes so that they are completely submerged,
and let sit for 15 minutes.
Heat 2 tablespoons of the reserved oil in a large heavy skillet over
high heat. Add the potato-and-egg mixture, quickly spreading it out in
the pan with a spatula. Sprinkle half of the herbs over the egg
mixture. Lower the heat to moderately high and shake the pan
occasionally to prevent sticking. When the potatoes begin to brown
underneath, invert a large plate over the skillet. Flip the omelet
onto the plate. Remove any pieces that have stuck to the pan and
arrange them on the tortilla. Add the remaining tablespoon of reserved
oil to the pan, then slide the tortilla back into the skillet. Lower
the heat to medium and continue to cook the tortilla, flipping 2 to 3
more times, until it is firm but still moist. Transfer the tortilla to
a platter and sprinkle with remaining herbs. The tortilla can be
served hot, warm, room temperature, cool, or cold cut into wedges.
