Basic Jerk Sauce Ingredients from Joan's Files

Recipe By : Susan
Serving Size :   Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Volume 10-05 May 2007

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
lime juice, fresh
scotch bonnet peppers or habanero peppers, seeded and chopped
scallions, chopped
garlic, minced
fresh thyme, leaves chopped
ginger, fresh and finely chopped
allspice, whole (also called pimiento berries)
brown sugar
cinnamon, ground
nutmeg, ground

fresh cilantro, chopped
soy sauce*
rice wine vinegar*
white vinegar*
sherry wine*

* These will vary by recipes. Use amounts to season as you wish.
Instead of using the starred ingredients as a liquid base for the
jerk marinade, I am tempted to use a stash of gin and vodka that
was "bequeathed" to me. I don't see why that would not work. If I
buy a really cheap cut of meat and put it in a crock pot with a
little gin or vodka, that meat falls off the bone!

Basil Nicoise Olive Brandade

Recipe By : Brasserie Zinc
Serving Size :   Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Volume 10-05 May 2007

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1/2 pound salt cod -- soaked
1 1/2 cups milk
1/4 cup heavy cream
2 garlic cloves -- minced
1 potato -- baked and riced
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
10 Nicoise olives -- pitted
8 fresh basil leaves -- chopped

Soak the cod in cold water overnight in the refrigerator, changing the
water three times. Drain cod and place it in a sauté pan with the milk.
Simmer for 15 minutes. Strain off the milk and discard. Heat the cream in a
saucepan and set aside. Puree the cod in a food processor with the garlic,
potato and pepper. Once the mixture looks chunky, slowly pour in the cream
and olive oil and puree until smooth. Do not overmix or the starch in the
potatoes becomes gluelike. Transfer mixture to a bowl and mix in olives and
basil. Place mixture in a heatproof earthenware dish. Preheat oven to 350
degrees F. and bake for 10 to 12 minutes until heated. Change oven setting
to broil and cook for an additional 4 to 6 minutes, until brown. Serve hot
with large chunks of bread.

Brasserie Zinc's flavorful brandade incorporates garlic cloves, Niçoise
olives and fresh basil into the traditional salt cod and cream mixture for
a smooth puree that's perfect for hors d' oeuvres dipping.

Bean Thread or Cellophane Noodles Information

Recipe By : Dim Sum and Other Chinese Street Food by Mai Leung
Serving Size :   Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Volume 10-05 May 2007

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
(See Below)

Bean Thread noodles, also known as peastarch noodles or cellophane noodles
are wiry, hard, clear white noodles made from mung peas. If used in soup,
they must be soaked until soft and translucent. They should not be
overcooked as prolonged cooking will make them mushy.

It is not necessary to presoak them if they are deep-fried. They pop up
from the oil like a snow-white nest. Sold in 2- to 6-ounce packages.

Storing - will keep indefinitely without refrigeration.

From Dim Sum and Other Chinese Street Food by Mai Leung; 1979.

Blue Cheese Muffins - 3 pts (WW)

Recipe By :
Serving Size : 12 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Volume 10-05 May 2007

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
2 sprays cooking spray
2 cup all-purpose flour -- unbleached
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon table salt
1 teaspoon paprika
2 tablespoons unsalted butter -- melted
1 large eggs -- beaten
1 cup fat-free skim milk
5 ounces blue cheese -- crumbled

Preheat oven to 375ºF and coat a 12-hole muffin tin with cooking spray
or line with muffin liners. In a large bowl, sift together flour,
baking powder, salt, and paprika.

Create a well in flour mixture with a spoon and place butter, egg and
milk into well; mix until just blended. (Do not beat until smooth.)

Fill each muffin hole with a tablespoon of batter (you’ll have about
1/2 the batter left). Divide cheese evenly over center of each muffin,
saving just enough cheese for a sparse topping. Continue filling
muffin holes with batter so each is about 2/3 to 3/4 full; sprinkle
muffins with remaining cheese.

Bake until a toothpick inserted in center of a muffin comes out clean,
about 25 minutes; serve warm.

Yields 1 muffin per serving.

NOTES : If you’re not a fan of blue cheese, substitute another strong-
flavored shredded cheese such as parmesan, provolone, gruyere or
extra-sharp cheddar.

I love this recipe! Sometimes I replace 1/2 cup of the flour with
cornmeal, and the blue cheese with a drained feta, add minced kalamata
olives, and lots of red pepper flakes and it turns into a Moroccan
muffin!!!

Broccoli Salad with Craisins

Recipe By : Art Guyer
Serving Size : 12 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Volume 10-05 May 2007

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
2 heads fresh broccoli
1 cup Craisins -- (dried sweetened cranberries)
2 bunches green onions -- chopped
2 cups cheddar cheese -- shredded

Dressing:
1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 cup white vinegar
2 cups mayonnaise
Salt and pepper -- to taste

1 pound bacon
1 1/2 cups sunflower seeds

Blanch the broccoli for 60 to 90 seconds. Remove and run under cold
water. The broccoli will still be firm enough for the salad, the color 
will be even prettier, because blanching brings out the green and the 
taste will be less raw and more cooked. Remove flowerettes from the 
broccoli stem in bite-sized pieces. Peel stem and shred.

In a salad bowl, toss together broccoli, Craisins green onions and cheese.

In a separate bowl, whisk together the sugar, vinegar and mayonnaise.
Season to taste. Pour over broccoli mixture and toss to coat. Refrigerate
for at least 2 hours or overnight.

Place bacon in a large, deep skillet. Fry crisp over medium high heat until
evenly brown. Drain, crumble and set aside.

Before serving, sprinkle with sunflower seeds and crumbled bacon. Toss and
serve.

Art's Note: I prepared this May 22, 2007; it was a big hit. Had it with
chili and pasta. I used 4 or 5 broccoli crowns instead of the whole heads
and therefore just finely chopped the limited stems. Reserving the
sunflower seeds and crumbled bacon for adding right before serving keeps
them from getting damp and soggy...
