Fish Fragrant Eggplant
(no, there is no fish but it is supposed to taste something like fish)

Serves 4
Radically adapted from Ethnic Cuisine by Elisabeth Rozin

1 large eggplant
4 tbl soy sauce
1 tbl cornstarch
3 tbl dry sherry
3 tbl sugar
1/4 cup distilled white vinegar
1/4 cup water
1 tsp crushed dried red pepper
6 slices ginger, about the size and thickness of a quarter
4 scallions, chopped, separate white and green parts

1. Cut stem end off eggplant. Dice eggplant into small cubes.

2. In a small bowl, combine soy sauce, sugar, vinegar and water.

3. Heat 1 tbl dry sherry in a large skillet or wok. Add red
peppers and stir. Add ginger, white part of scallion. Stir
fry briefly until ginger becomes fragrant. Add the squeezed
eggplant and saute approximately 8-10 minutes, stirring
occasionally, until eggplant is thoroughly cooked. You shouldn’t
have any trouble with sticking because the eggplant still
has a bit of moisture in it but if it does, add a little bit
of water or sherry.

4. Add soy sauce mixture and cook over high heat until most of
the liquid is evaporated and eggplant is thoroughly
coated with reduced sauce – about 5 minutes.

5. Combine 2 tbl sherry with cornstarch.

cornstarch. Stir and cook until thick. Serve hot over plain rice.

Title: Buttermilk Biscuits 2
Categories: Home Cookin,
Yield: 12

1 c all-purpose flour, sifted
1 ts baking power
1/8 ts baking soda
1/4 ts salt
2 tb unsalted butter
1/4 c plus 1 teaspoon buttermilk

1. Preheat the oven to 375°F. Line a baking sheet with
parchment or wax paper.

2. In a bowl combine the dry ingredients and blend thoroughly.
Cream in the butter with your fingers or a fork, until the
mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add the buttermilk a little at
a time and, using your hands or a fork, work it in just until
it’s thoroughly incorporated and you have a smooth ball of dough.
Don’t overwork or overhandle the dough.

3. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough with a
rolling pin to a circle about 7 inches in diameter, 1/2 inch
thick. Using a small round cookie cutter or the rim of a shot
glass, press out twelve 1″ rounds. If you like, you can reroll
the leftover dough to make more, but the texture of these will be
denser than the others.

4. Place the dough rounds on the baking sheet and bake until
golden on top and brown on the bottom, for about 15 minutes.
Serve warm.
