  • Texans!!Authentic Family Recipe for Beef Brisket-dont want a cook book one.?

    Thanks so much!!Texans!!Authentic Family Recipe for Beef Brisket-dont want a cook book one.?
    Trim off some of the cap first, all that fat will keep the smoke from getting into the meat. But be careful not to take off too much, it will dry up if you do. Wash the meat off, then coat it generously with Fiesta Brand Steak Seasoning and a light dusting of garlic powder, not the granules, they burn. Use your favorite smoking method, but try not to put the meat too high up in the smoker because too much smoke can make it taste bitter. We use mostly oak with some pecan added for flavor. After a couple of hours, spray the meat down every 30 minutes or so with a mixture of beef broth, onion juice, garlic juice, and beer. This will caramalize on the meat and give it extra moisture. Smoke it until the meat feels firm and isn't ';floppy' when you pick it up. Kind of hard to describe, but you should definately cook until it reaches the proper cooking temp for beef (don't remember what that is right now. LOL). If the skinny end starts to get hard and black, you need to take it off! Wrap it tightly in aluminum foil, shiny side IN, and wrap that in newspaper and place it in an empty beer cooler, without ice, for a couple of hours. This will steam the meat and make it even moister and more tender. It takes a long time to do it this way, but it is definately worth it! My dad has been using this method for years and has won many trophies at some big cook-offs with it! Good luck, and enjoy!

    Looking for egg foo yung recipe from old Better Homes & Gardens Cook Book (red-checkered one maybe 1980s)?

    Not sure of the year of the cookbook, but the recipe is not in any current Better Homes and Garden Cookbook or any I have found at the library. I believe the egg foo yung recipe was listed exactly as that. It contained cabbage, bean sprouts, celery, and green pepper. It included a sauce recipe. This is my huband's favorite recipe, and I have lost it. My cookbook fell apart and I operated from the loose page, knowing I should have attached it to something. Procrastination is an awful thing. Tomorrow is my husband's birthday and he always requests this recipe. I know I may be too late here and will have to punt tomorrow, but I would still like the original recipe, if possible. Thank you.Looking for egg foo yung recipe from old Better Homes %26amp; Gardens Cook Book (red-checkered one maybe 1980s)?
    INGREDIENTS:





    * Sauce:


    * 1 cup homemade or storebought Chinese chicken broth


    * 1 tablespoon oyster sauce


    * 1 tablespoon soy sauce


    * Salt and pepper to taste


    * 1 tablespoon cornstarch dissolved in 4 tablespoons water


    * Egg Fu Yung:


    * 3/4 pound fresh shelled, deveined shrimp


    * 1/2 cup mung bean sprouts


    * 1 medium white or yellow onion


    * 1 red bell pepper


    * fresh mushrooms, to make 1/2 cup


    * 2 green onions


    * Oil for stir-frying and deep-frying


    * 6 large eggs


    * Salt and pepper, to taste


    * 1 tablespoon Chinese rice wine or dry sherry





    PREPARATION:


    To prepare the egg fu yung sauce, bring the chicken broth to a boil. Stir in the seasonings, and thicken with the cornstarch and water mixture. Keep warm on low heat while making the egg fu yung.





    Rinse the shrimp under warm running water.





    Pat dry and finely chop.


    Rinse the mung bean sprouts and drain thoroughly. Peel and dice the onion. Cut the red bell pepper in half, remove the seeds and cut into bite-sized chunks. Wipe the mushrooms clean with a damp cloth and thinly slice. Wash and finely chop the green onions.





    Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a frying pan. When the oil is hot, add the shrimp. Stir-fry until they turn pink and are cooked. Remove from the pan.





    In a large bowl, lightly beat the eggs with the salt and pepper. Stir in the rice wine or sherry, cooked shrimp and the vegetables.





    In the wok, heat 2 1/2 inches oil for deep-frying to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. When the oil is hot, gently ladle 1/4 of the egg mixture into the wok. Deep-fry on one side until browned (about 2 minutes), then ladle a bit of oil over the top so that it firms up. Use a spatula (or 2 spatulas if necessary) to gently turn the omelet over and brown the other side. Remove the omelet with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Serve with the egg fu yung sauce poured over top.Looking for egg foo yung recipe from old Better Homes %26amp; Gardens Cook Book (red-checkered one maybe 1980s)?

    It's a fantastic recipe... one of my favorites from the book.





    I see someone sent you a recipe link... good.


    Feel free to customize the recipe a bit- I like to substitute potatoes for the tofu stuff... to make it more like a traditional pot pie. People go nuts for it, and my (non-vegetarian) brother always wants me to make it when I see him.





    I love that cookbook and would highly recommend it, since I (and my brother-in-law agrees) have only had good results from the recipes. Once we tried one that was just ';ok';. The rest are delicious!

    Grandma's Sour Cream Cookies





    These cookies are my personal favorites. You really do have to refrigerate them for one hour before cooking. It鈥檚 Grandma鈥檚 secret tip for making them turn out right. Also, you need to sift your flour first and then measure out your three cups.





    Ingredients:





    3 cups sifted all purpose flour


    1 teaspoon baking powder


    1/2 teaspoon baking soda


    1/2 teaspoon salt


    1 cup soft butter


    1 1/2 cups sugar


    2 eggs


    1 cup sour cream


    1 teaspoon vanilla





    Topping:





    1/2 cup of sugar


    1 teaspoon of cinnamon





    Directions:





    1. Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. (The easiest way to do this is with your sifter. It doesn鈥檛 hurt the flour to be re-sifted.) Set your dry mixture aside.


    2. Combine and bean butter, sugar and eggs until they are light and fluffy.


    3. Blend in the sour cream and vanilla until the mixture is nice and smooth.


    4. Add your dry mixture gradually.


    5. Refrigerate your cookie dough for one hour.


    6. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees.


    7. Drop tablespoon sized cookie dough mixture onto your greased cookie sheet, making sure they are about two and 1/2 inches apart. (Dough will puff up and spread out.)


    8. Sprinkle your cookies with topping.


    9. Bake the cookies 10 to 12 minutes or until the tops of the cookies are a light golden brown color.





    Makes 3 1/2 to 4 dozen cookies.
    SOUR CREAM COOKIES


    COOKIES:


    1 c. shortening


    2 c. brown sugar, packed


    2 eggs


    1 c. heavy sour cream


    2 tsp. salt


    1 tsp. soda


    1/2 tsp. nutmeg


    1 tsp. cinnamon


    4 c. flour


    1/2 c. nuts (optional)


    ICING:


    1/2 c. butter


    1 c. brown sugar, packed


    1/4 c. canned milk


    1 3/4 to 2 c. powdered sugar


    COOKIES: Sift flour, salt, soda, cinnamon and nutmeg all together. Cream shortening, add brown sugar and cream together. Add eggs, sour cream and put nuts in the mix or on top. Add flour. Chill in refrigerator for 1 hour. Drop by teaspoon on greased cookie sheet. Bake at 375 degrees for 10 minutes.


    ICING: Melt 1/2 cup butter, add 1 cup brown sugar packed. Boil over low heat for 2 minutes stirring constantly. Stir in 1/4 cup canned milk. Stir until it comes to a boil. Cool to lukewarm. Gradually add 1 3/4 to 2 cups powdered sugar. Beat until spreading consistency. If icing becomes stiff add a little hot water. This icing is good for cakes too.
    can 9 cups of confectioners' sugar in the icing for the second recipe be correct? seems like a HUGE amount and way more than any other. Thoughts?

    Trying to cook for just me and my 6 year old daughter so nothing to fancy. Will like to start with simple recipes then grow to adult dishesStarting off trying to learn how to cook. Anyone know of any books that have simple recipes?
    The above answers are okay, but my daughter is a new cook and there are things she says make it easier for her. First, she likes to see pictures of how things are suppose to turn out. The cookbook, How to Boil Water is really great for this. It's really basic, and doesn't assume you have any prior knowledge. Here is a website that has step-by-step pictures, also:

    ChrisStarting off trying to learn how to cook. Anyone know of any books that have simple recipes?
    Go to kraftfoods.com/share They will send you 5 magazines per year, no cost, 40+ recipes per issue. You will have to specify easy or more advanced. My wife passed away a while back and I was in the same boat so to say. There really quick and easy. Or you can call 1 800 521 4403. Of course they want you to buy their brand, but just substitute a less expensive brand if you wish. LOL
    get like hamburger helper or mac and cheese or sumthin like that and just do what it says on teh box and if you need help with anything there's phone numbers on the box usu.
    Cambell soup cookbooks are good ... they are also quick and easy recipes. Sounds like you would like quick with a 6 year old too. Or instead of the cookbook look at the soup cans next time you are shopping they always have a recipe on the label...Another hint is microwave cook books .. you can adapt the recipes to stove if you would like and they are very simple too.
    get ';The Joy of Cooking';. No matter whether it's mac and cheese or beef wellington, this is the best cooking source around.
    One of the best 'learn how to cook' cookbooks is the Better Homes %26amp; Garden Junior Cookbook. Also when you get a few of the basic skills down you can't go wrong with a Southern Living Cookbook. One web site with really easy recipes is the one for Campbell's. Good luck and if you can read you can cook!
    My favorite is Taste of Home. They are tried and true recipes by home cooks everywhere. They have a website but you can also order their many cookbooks/mag subscription. They offer recipes when you're cooking for just 1 or 2 people or a crowd and lots of cool cooking ideas for children to get involved in. I love it too because the recipes are not fussy and the ingredients can be found easily at your local grocery store. Enjoy!

    Campbell's Soup cookbooks were what we used when we were growing up. Both our parents worked so there were four of us latchkey kids at home.





    Our bible was the Betty Crocker cookbook. It belonged to my mom and was thick.
    Better Homes and Gardens cook book is good book for beginners. Also you can get any of Rachael Rays cook books are good. You can go to these web sites for easy recipes

    My mom is apses-ed about cooking books and recipes is that normal?

    my has a big library full of cooking books and she always buys them just as fe she is addicted on them she watches cooking t.v all the time but in fact she just collects them and write them but never cook them is that normal?My mom is apses-ed about cooking books and recipes is that normal?
    Here, Here Margaret, good answer. I can relate.My mom is apses-ed about cooking books and recipes is that normal?
    Maybe she just can't get motivated to try new recipes. Maybe if you can talk her into it, the two of you, can start cooking together. That ways you'll be learning to cook %26amp; she will fulfill a hidden passion she may have for cooking. Maybe being a chef was a dream of hers when she was younger.
    People collect lots of things that interest them. I used to have menu collection with over 100 menus hung on the walls. I would refer to them occasionally for ideas. Maybe your mom does the same thing. You might consider reading a book or two yourself. That's how we learn and enrich our lives. You are really young, right?
    It is just fine. Cook books are great to have laying around, you never know when you will need them.





    There is nothing wrong with being ';OBSESSED'; with cook books.





    How old are you?
    I have over a hundred and love to read them.
    My brother cooks the tastiest dishes and he learned them all from cook books. So if she is learning how to be a great cook from these books I say she is normal.
    I've heard stories like that before! I think it's fine.

    I constantly come up with new recipes… What should I do to write a cook book??

    OK, I am an improvisational cook… I read a recipe somewhere then remember what I want to about it %26amp; make something similar when I cook at home %26amp; I learn the SCIENCE behind why foods do what they do so I automatically correct bad recipes as I make them.





    When I make something good, I remember what I did %26amp; it goes into my mental list of recipes… When people ask me how I made something, I tend to tell them what I did %26amp; then tell them to go off on their own %26amp; make it however it makes THEM happy… BUT… I do have the ability to write down my recipes %26amp; they tend to be like nothing I have seen in cook books or on TV since I NEVER use anything in writing…





    I was thinking about writing a cook book called something like “The Improvisational Chef” where I would teach people to take a recipe they like %26amp; to then take that %26amp; put their own personal twists on it to make it “Theirs” and no one else's…





    I realized that not everyone can do this now that my aunt is back in town.I constantly come up with new recipes… What should I do to write a cook book??
    It is actually a discipline to write a cookery book, as I discovered when I had to sort some of mine out for publication by the BBC. I am rather like you and cook by instinct. However, people using your book would want to know all the details you take for granted about preparation and quantities and any omission or inconsistency will really stand out.





    What your're really suggesting is a stock of recipes with a list of alternative ingredients beside each one. Or a series of recipes which you can use with a specific set of ingredients which happen to be available without having to go out shopping for more. In other words, you need a theme.





    When people look at cookery books they are seeking inspiration. Some people follow recipes slavishly and want to be guided through the cooking process. Those who are true improvisers tend to read through recipes and then do their own thing.





    I think to write a successful cookery book you must target a sector of the public and write your recipes with their needs in mind. For example, there was a French book (translated into English, so widely available) called ';Cooking in Ten Minutes';, which was very appealing, as the idea was that you could rush home, sort out an appetising lunch for yourself in no time at all and even have time for a coffee afterwards before getting back to work. Never mind that one seldom looks at the recipes in that book, which are basically very simple -- it was the idea which appealed!I constantly come up with new recipes… What should I do to write a cook book??
    i think it would be a great ideal -- we can always use a new cook book!!!

    Haggis (National dish of Scotland...and very old)





    1 sheep's lung (illegal in the U.S.; may be omitted if not available)


    1 sheep's stomach


    1 sheep heart


    1 sheep liver


    1/2 lb fresh suet (kidney leaf fat is preferred)


    3/4 cup oatmeal (the ground type, NOT the Quaker Oats type!)


    3 onions, finely chopped


    1 teaspoon salt


    1 teaspoon freshly ground pepper


    1/2 teaspoon cayenne


    1/2 teaspoon nutmeg


    3/4 cup stock


    Wash lungs and stomach well, rub with salt and rinse. Remove membranes and excess fat. Soak in cold salted water for several hours. Turn stomach inside out for stuffing.


    Cover heart and liver with cold water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover and simmer for 30 minutes. Chop heart and coarsely grate liver. Toast oatmeal in a skillet on top of the stove, stirring frequently, until golden. Combine all ingredients and mix well. Loosely pack mixture into stomach, about two-thirds full. Remember, oatmeal expands in cooking.





    Press any air out of stomach and truss securely. Put into boiling water to cover. Simmer for 3 hours, uncovered, adding more water as needed to maintain water level. Prick stomach several times with a sharp needle when it begins to swell; this keeps the bag from bursting. Place on a hot platter, removing trussing strings. Serve with a spoon. Ceremoniously served with ';neeps, tatties and nips'; -- mashed turnips, mashed potatoes, nips of whiskey.

    I want to feed my dogs with home cooked recipes so looking for a book with DOg food receipes?

    ill share my recipe with you





    lightly cook some minced beef, pork, or chicken, add some ';frozen veges packet';, and boil some rice, or pasta, then stick it in the blender for just a few seconds to mix it upI want to feed my dogs with home cooked recipes so looking for a book with DOg food receipes?
    plenty of books but here is a site that I pulled from refdesk:http://www.heraldnet.com/stories/07/03/3鈥?/a>I want to feed my dogs with home cooked recipes so looking for a book with DOg food receipes?
    If you want to do this, first research dog nutritional needs to make sure not only that you're feeding the right nutrients in the right proportions; but that you're not using anything that will cause health problems.


    Also your dogs needs change as they age, plus when they're ill or have pups.


    Its really not a good idea until you've done your research, and you can check your recipies with your vet. In the meantime use a good quality dog food.
    Home cooked food is surely better than kibble, as long as you give the dog a good variety. However, there's really no need to cook the food. In fact, cooked bones are dangerous to dogs, while raw bones are not.





    People will tell you that dogs have adapted to the way we feed them and that kibble is best (like McDonalds is best for humans ... uh huh), but dogs only vary from wolves by 0.2% of their mDNA. They are still completely capable of digesting raw food.





    Also, dogs have no need for vegetables or grains. They do not need carbs like humans do. The reason you find wheat and corn in kibble is because it's cheap. That's the only reason.
    You can find recipies on line but remember that it is very hard to assure your pet is getting the complete nutrition that they will need when you are cooking their food.


    I used to cook for my pets until I found this great brand of food.


    You should check it out it is recall safe-holistic and very healthy food that is nutrient dense and does not contain any wheat-gluten-corn-or soy- which were reasons for the recall and also common allergins for pets.


    My four dogs love it and it is delivered fresh to your door.


    No sitting on warehouse or pet store shelves.


    Go to


    http://www.nancyshealthnet.com


    It never hurts to look for the best option for your pets health and well being.


    If you are still insistant on cooking then at least add the daily suppliment also available on this site to ensure that your dog is getting all that they need.


    Wishing you and your pet the best.
    you clearly have a lot of time and money of your hands!!


    Try putting dog food cookery in google and see what comes up
    I second Melindhra, also check out www.ukrmb.co.uk %26amp; Tom Lonsdales book Work Wonders.
    ask your vet about which meat and veg to use and quantities if you boil some rice aswell to go along with it but dont cook it completely if it has a bit of crunch to it ur dog will like it better and remember variety you wouldn`t eat mince and tatties every night ur dog doesn`t want to eat the same thing every day either it`ll eat it cos its hungry but it wont like it
    hello i feed my German Shep broccoli and chicken meat no bones ,mix together . Chicken and rice no salt oil added cook all in water great healthy food goes down well:)
    Instead of using a book, try this:





    1 can of corn


    1 can of chicken


    1 bag of rice (only a 2lbs. bag)





    I learned this from my mom and my dogs LOVE it. Just make sure that the chicken has no bones.
    HiThere,


    There are many dog food recipes on line that you may find suitable. Also for cookies and treats. Also some vets will give you ';diets'; for your dog and supplements (I always got mine free, because I said I used a raw diet???)


    Anyway I will give you an idea of what I have experienced and tried in the past and now. VERY nutritious and obviously delicious ALL my dogs flourished on this, not to mention weight control and allergies control (oh and no need to worry about Recalled foods!)


    Anyway here goes:


    Liver Treats: a good size piece of liver (kidney, heart works too) boil gently with a couple cloves of garlic for 30 mins then on very low heat in the oven ';bake'; for 2-4 hours until very dry, slice and cut into little pieces and use as treats!





    Dinner: in a strong blender Add any or all of the following


    a couple cloves of garlic, a slice of ginger, flax seed, brewers yeast, vitamins/minerals, a couple eggs, (I always use these)


    then any combo of below **just No onion or grapes or corn


    apples (to fill blender)


    banana


    blueberries


    blackberries


    spinach


    kale


    chard


    broccoli


    cauliflower


    cucumber


    zucchini


    bok choy


    turnips/rutabaga


    alfalfa sprouts


    carrots


    sweet potato or yam (precooked works best)


    mango


    avocado


    tomato (no more dead grass spots on the lawn)


    green beans/yellow beans


    pumpkin (precooked best)


    beets


    parsnips


    peas





    Anyway I'm sure you get the idea, carrots, sweet potato, broccoli and spinach/kale are faves. Anyway blend this all


    up (you may need a little water or milk) until smooth and then I


    would pour it in with either 1-3 lbs of hamburger, chicken cut up, lamb (we have sheep so cheap) or minced pork or salmon filets cut up (also live near ocean so cheap) or a can or two of tuna occasionally or any other cheap white fish we can get. Mix it all up and Voila! Dinner. On occasion maybe a time or two a week I would add a couple cups of steamed brown rice, or barley to give it a little more substance. Occasionally I'd add grated cheese or cottage cheese or plain yogurt too.


    The combinations are obviously endless and all VERY VERY healthy which I'm sure you can see. We actually saw huge improvement in mostly our old dogs, for arthristis I could and did add gluosamine and chronditin and Vit E oil judiciously for heart and skin health. It sounds difficult but actually I got where I was whipping it up while making people dinner and it was done in no time. And contrary to popular belief I found we saved money, I grew a large garden, asked around for freezer burnt meat from neighbour etc. and went to the dock for fish, and if anyone we knew went hunting they would save us ';the extras'; same with the local butcher/slaughterer.


    And of course if you don't have 5 dogs like us at any given time then you'll probably find it reasonable.


    Oh one more thing stew is BIG with our dogs too, i simply cut out the onions and some of the salt and there they go.





    WOW! Long post ----I do hope I have been of assistance and I hope you do decide to feed this way for doggies benefit!

    What is the best Alkaline food cooking recipe book?

    The only book I know on the subject is Robert young's The PH Miracle.





    This isn't a recommendation though.


    The book claims to tell you which foods to eat to do everything from losing weight to preventing and reversing diseases like diabetes, heart disease and cancer, its premise being that the main factor in disease is how acid or alkaline your blood and tissues are, and that the diet it recommends will reduce acidity.





    Sorry, but anyone who tells you that certain foods or supplements make your stomach or blood acidic does not understand nutrition.





    No foods change the acidity of anything in your body except your urine. Your stomach is so acidic that no food can change its acidity.





    Anything claimed to cure everything should be regarded with suspicion. Any book claiming to have the key to preventing and reversing cancer should be regarded with suspicion and contempt.





    I recommend this article to you

    What is the best Alkaline food cooking recipe book?
    This is a great Alkaline cookbook full of good food. It has a 4 week program which was great for me. It's a recipe book full of great tasting food. You can see sample at their website.

    Hope This Helps
    My sister in law uses the ';PH Balance Diet book';. She really likes it. BUT I think it's mostly lists of what's Alkaline and what's acidic, not a lot of recipies.
    The first site is full of info and the second is a chef that believes in what he does...

  • I'm looking for the chili recipe from the Ten Talents cook book. Do you have it?

    It is the only recipe i liked out of the entire book so i tore out the page with the recipe and put it with my other loose recipes and now i can't find it. It is my all time favorite simple chili recipe and i don't want to have to buy the book again. I already checked online and it is not available.





    Thanks so much for your help.I'm looking for the chili recipe from the Ten Talents cook book. Do you have it?
    Thought I had this cookbook in my library, but am not finding it. I will keep on looking (I've got loads of vegetarian books), and update this post should I either find the book or locate it on the internet.

    Good Recipes/Cook books?

    I am looking for kind of ';young'; recipes, lots of different kinds of chicken recipes, %26amp;%26amp; baking recipes (whether deserts or dinners).





    Ex. of what I mean





    Homemade subway sandwiches


    Chicken tacos


    Cherry Cobbler...CasserolesGood Recipes/Cook books?
    All of the Rachel Ray cookbooks are good for fresh twists on basic dishes. When I first watched her show, I found her a little over-the-top, but I appreciate the way she cooks. She teaches you methods, not just recipes. You can take any recipe, follow the basic method, but switch up the ingredients as many ways as you like. Rachel's recipes offer a lot of flexibility, and she give great tips for making the dish your own.





    As far as casseroles go, old churchbooks always offer cheesy, yummy retro recipes. It's fun to look for these great books at yard sales, etc. They also offer a great look at the history and culture of the area. You can get ideas from these books, then personalize the recipes to your taste, and add modern ingredients.





    It's also fun to combine recipes. For example, if you like chicken tacos and casseroles... find a great chicken taco recipe, use the same herbs %26amp; spices and basic ingredients, then layer them in a casserole dish, top with salsa %26amp; cheeses, and bake till bubbling. Chicken Taco Bake. You shouldn't be afraid to experiment and be creative when you're in the kitchen. HAPPY COOKING!Good Recipes/Cook books?
    I highly recommend anything by Caprial Pence. I had no idea who she was and was given her Caprial's Desserts by a friend. I have tried at least half the recipes in that book, some are relatively complicated and was really happy with the experience (the peanut butter cookies are a dud, I think she was strongarmed into putting her mom's recipe in the book and something is wrong with the black and white chocolate chip cookie recipie - and I tried it twice) but in spite of that, I am super super super happy with that book. My family is quite familiar now with her pear struesel pie, orange pecan pull aparts, lemon shortbread, ginger snaps...ok, I'm drooling... ...And they think *I* make them...





    After exploring her desserts, I went alooking for her other books and have tried many recipies from her various books. They are well written and easy to follow, she explains why things are done and variations so it's more like a lesson than just following a recipe and her creations are wonderful and interesting. Her chicken soup (the one with Madiera and roasted red peppers) is the BEST chicken soup I, or anyone I've ever served it to, has ever tasted.
    To answer your baking desserts portion...I have had great luck with Junior's Cheesecake Cookbook. It's got lots of great recipes with a variety of flavors and options for cheesecakes, and though I have yet to try all of them, the ones I have tried have worked out beautifully! They're easy to follow and great for the beginner or advanced baker, too!
    I highly recommend you start with ';The Joy of Cooking';. It has great recipes for just about everything, and it's a perfect cornerstone upon which to build your cookbook library!
    The American Test Kitchen books are fabulous!
    good homes and gardens had excellent recipes.

    def mrs. dash seasonings. they have so many different varieties now. and they all are salt free. but watch other seasonings, i know alot of people who think they are using a salt free seasoning when in fact the number one ingredient on the bottle is salt. but mrs. dash is really good. i always have a ton of them and i use them up every month
    use lemon or lime juice instead of salt for flavor. It's really good and goes well with a lot of stuff, also, in you organic foods section at Wal-Mart or other grocery stores, look for ';Melissa's veggie rub'; It's really good and has little to no salt, try also Mrs. Dash's salt free seasonings. Good luck, have fun experimenting and sorry to hear about your Grandmother!
    This one is really good, just substitue garlic powder for garlic salt. You can also add some Mrs Dash seasoning if you can find it, it has no salt but a lot of flavor.

    Well, I for one, am totally clueless. Never heard of the stuff but it does sound like spaghetti made from soybeans. Maybe you could write and ask one of the bigger manufacturers of pasta products?
    I wonder if it was spaghetti noodles made from soybeans......nothing comes up when I Google it!





    Interesting!
    Soygetti? Sounds worse than a pot filled with chitlins.

    Once assembled, bake covered with foil @ 350 for 45 mins., uncover and continue another 15 mins. Allow to cool slightly for cheese to firm up a little, then serve with add'l sauce and grated cheese.Does anyone how long to bake lasagna for?? it is an old recipe and i lost my cook book. Google issues still.?
    Usually about 45 minutes to 1 hour. Basically it's only the egg in the ricotta that is raw after assembly. The baking is mostly to brown the top layer of cheese and to heat it. My recipe calls for 45 minutes to one hour at 350f. Normally, I tend to keep it in for around 1 hour because I like a darker browning.
    All of your ingredients are already cooked for the lasagna so you really just need to heat it through until the cheese on top is nice and melty. I usually go about 60 minutes at 350. IMPORTANT: Let it sit out for at LEAST 10-20 minutes before trying to cut into it.
    45 minutes to 1 hour until the cheese is melted and the top is bubbly and beginning to brown.
    I would say bake it 45 minutes to 1 hour.

    2) Southern snow ball cake.


    3) Aunt Evie's pickled peaches


    4) Late night dump cake.


    5) Hoppin' John





    These are actual names of recipe's from the book!Ca you write a funny or in ANY way entertaining story using these ';recipes'; from my new cook-book? (NOT H.W!!)
    We live in this small town in No where’s Ville. If you bat your eyes while driving by you’d miss the place. We still had a one room school house because there aren’t enough of us to have anything bigger although they did allow two teachers instead of one. We may be small but the town folk still knew how to have fun on our numerous special occasions and the next one coming up was a food contest which was this week-end so everyone was busy preparing their favorite recipes. Besides the food judging there was going to be the usual all you can eat contest, and various games such as the pie throwing and dunking ol’ Miss bridges in the tank. Saturday came and the grounds filled up quickly. The tables were filled with food waiting to be sampled. Poor old HOPPIN’ JOHN, the main judge had his work cut out for him this year.


    Miss Bridges was dressed in a bathing suit most would never be seen in but she was good natured enough to be 65 years old sit on a bench and wait for it to drop her in the tank. She wasn’t expecting the first throw to land her in that tank of icy water.


    My buddies and I joined in the games but we were waiting for the all you can eat contest to see who could out do one another but first was the recipe judging. The surprise this year was a few of the older kids like me got to be part of the judging and I was one of them.


    “Well bring on the food! Let’s get started!” I yelled out.


    Mrs. Quillacutty’s SOUTHER SNOW BALL CAKE was first. It was huge! I took my first mouthful and tasted yeast and it felt like I was eating air. She proudly watched us and said, “I tripled the yeast as well as my baking powder to make it fluffy and big.” Boy did she ever, Yuck!!


    Next came CLETUS AND THELMA’S STUFFED PEPPERS. Yum. I love those things and last year they won the prize but as I started chewing my mouth went on fire. I looked around for water. None and the rules stated we had to eat three mouthfuls of everything we were judging. Both of them announced proudly their ingredients which were chilly peppers, jalapeño peppers with a sprinkle of cayenne pepper on top. I couldn’t even taste the rice that was the main ingredient.


    I didn’t know how much more I could take.


    Next came AUNT EVIE’S PICKLED PEACHES. Needless to say I was leery but they were pretty good. Thank goodness!


    Following that came Mrs. Grassergull’s LATE NIGHT DUMP CAKE. The name of it alone should have made me cautious but after AUNT EVIE’S PICKLED PEACHES my guard was down. There are no words that could have prepared me for this monstrosity. It looked like a plate of mush only it was solid and the taste? Well the taste I can’t describe at all. I took off as fast as possible before Mrs. Grassergull could reveal her ingredients which I really didn’t want to hear.


    How HOPPIN’ JOHN did this every year I don’t know but it won’t be me.


    Needless to say I won’t be part of next year and I didn’t join in the fastest eating contest.


    The next morning, still feeling horrible, Mom told me she had just read the amusement column in our town paper. All the recipes were harmless but some were put up as a joke to the judges this year. None of the judges were amused accept HOPPIN’JOHN who was in it from the beginning.


    I don’t know about this little town of ours!!!!Ca you write a funny or in ANY way entertaining story using these ';recipes'; from my new cook-book? (NOT H.W!!)
    hi
    Now Cletus' and Thelma's stuffed peppers were not all what they had cracked up to be. This was not even the low point of the dinner party as when Thelma was carrying the southern snowball cake into the dinig room she had passed the toilet on the way. Aunt Evie had forgotten to shut the door so the sight of her pivckled peaches was enough to send Thelma into a state of shock in which she tripped and landed face first into the cake. Afetr her late night dump, cake was the last thing on Evies old and fragile mind. So instead she shouted,


    ';Hoppin John'; as she darted from the toilet to her room, and john soon followed as he fiddled with the tricky knot in his tie.

    1 teaspoon File powder

    In a heavy pot, heat oil, when hot, add peppers, onions, garlic, celery and tomatoes. Cook 5 minutes. Add 4-1/2 cups water and beans, being to a boil, then lower heat and simmer 2 hours. Add smoked sausage and simmer 1 hour more.





    Now add seasonings; bay leaves, peppers and file powder, with Tabasco sauce. Use less if you don't like it too hot, you can always put more on at the table. Cook for another hour.





    Be sure the liquid does not get completely boiled away. If need be, add a little more water in 1/4 cup increments, but you'll ususally have to boil away excess liquid rather than add.

    Lamb Chops with Cracked Pepper %26amp; Rosemary





    2 to 3 tablespoons coarsely crushed black peppercorns


    8 small loin lamb chops


    1/2 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil


    1/2 teaspoon coarse salt


    1/2 cup beef broth


    1/4 cup lemon juice


    2 tablespoons butter


    1 tablespoon freshly chopped rosemary leaves





    Place pepper on plate and press each chop firmly into pepper and press in with your hands.





    In a heavy frying pan (I use my cast-iron frying pan) over medium-high heat, add olive oil and heat. Add peppered lamb chops and sear on both sides. Sprinkle lamb chops with salt. Reduce heat to medium (do not degrease the pan). Add beef stock and lemon juice; continue to cook until the chops reach the desired doneness, approximately 2 to 3 minutes for medium rare and an internal thermometer registers 125掳F. (use a meat thermometer to test for doneness).





    Remove lamb chops to an oven-safe platter, cover loosely with aluminum foil, and keep warm in a 200掳F oven until ready to serve (needs to let rest 5 to 10 minutes before serving). NOTE: During this time the meat continues to cook (meat temperature will rise 5 to 10 degrees after it is removed from the heat source) and the juices redistribute.





    Continue to cook the sauce, scraping any pieces of meat off the bottom of the pan and stirring them into the sauce. Let the liquid boil until liquid is reduced to a shiny glaze. Remove from heat. Whisk in butter and fresh rosemary.





    Remove lamb chops from the oven. Add any lamb juices to the sauce. Spoon sauce over chops and serve.





    Makes 4 servings.

    Preheat oven to Gas Mark 6/200掳C/400掳F.








    Lift the lamb into a very large roasting tin. Use a sharp knife to make small slits all over the surface, then push in the garlic slices. Roast for 1 hour.


    Remove the roasting tin from the oven and add the carrots and potatoes. Roast for 15 minutes.


    Add all the remaining vegetables to the roasting tin, apart from the asparagus, so that they surround the lamb. Add the rosemary sprigs and season with salt and pepper. Roast for a further 20 minutes


    Remove the roasting tin from the oven and lift the lamb onto a carving dish. Cover with foil and leave to rest for 10 minutes. Turn the vegetables over, add the asparagus and roast for a further 10 - 15 minutes.


    Carve the lamb and serve with the roast vegetables.





    Cook's tip: Serve with 300ml (1/2 pint) gravy, made with 4 teaspoons gravy granules, and add the extra POINTS values per serving. If the asparagus spears are quite thick, add them to the roasting dish with the onions, peppers and courgettes.

    Does anyone have a recipe, from an old Fanny Farmer cook book, for a pie crust that uses vegetable oil?

    I used this recipe many years ago but have since misplaced the cook book. I think the dough is also refridgerated. It is stired with a fork when mixing and comes out extreamly flakey when baked. As I recall, the oil is the only fat used in it.Does anyone have a recipe, from an old Fanny Farmer cook book, for a pie crust that uses vegetable oil?

    INGREDIENTS


    2 3/4 cups sifted all-purpose flour


    1 teaspoon salt


    1/2 cup vegetable oil


    1/2 cup milk





    DIRECTIONS


    Mix flour and salt together. Pour milk and oil into one measuring cup, do not stir, and add all at once to flour. Stir until mixed, and shape into 2 flat balls. Wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for 15 minutes or more.

    Louise Piper's Oil Pastry


    Makes one 9-inch double-crust pie





    Louise Piper is a perennial pie winner at the Iowa State Fair, one of the biggest in the country, and she's been using this crust for almost 40 years.





    If you substituted olive oil for the vegetable oil, and water for the milk, you'd have my mother-in-law's crowd-pleasing -- and vegan -- pie crust recipe instead.





    Cut the recipe in half for a single-crust pie.





    Before using, check your oil to make sure it's not rancid.





    Sticky oil and a musty, off-odor are clues. To measure the flour, spoon it into the measuring cup and level off.





    2 cups all-purpose flour


    1 teaspoon salt


    1/2 cup vegetable oil


    1/4 cup cold whole (or 2 percent) milk





    Combine the flour and salt in a large bowl. Measure the oil and milk into the same liquid measuring cup but do not stir. Add to the flour and mix briskly to combine. The dough will pull together into a ball.





    Divide the dough in half. Roll out each half to 1/8 inch thick between 2 sheets of wax paper. Use as directed in your recipe.





    Note: Because this is made with oil, the dough must be used right away. After a day in the fridge the oil will start to separate and seep out.





    hope these help. enjoy.Does anyone have a recipe, from an old Fanny Farmer cook book, for a pie crust that uses vegetable oil?
