Greetings,

My mailbox is overflowing with recipe requests again! I've been answering as many as I could (we've had tons of requests this month), and would I appreciate any help you have to offer answering these remaining requests from August. You may not get thank yous from the requestors, but you have a big THANK YOU from me in advance! I've mailed each of them this URL with instructions to look for their responses here. These are all people that haven't found the message board area of TKL yet or don't know how to use it - hopefully a lot of them will join us here once they see what they're missing :-).

Please don't respond with a 'search TKL' - just the actual recipe or info if you have it.

When posting a response, please title the message with the recipe name or specific subject or it will be too confusing to sort through the replies.

Your mission, if you choose to accept it:

Recently, I was at a Barnes and Nobles Bookstore, and had a delicious
"cinnamon chip" scone. They weren't actually chips, they were more of a
mixture of cinnamon and sugar in little balls in the scone. Do you know of a recipe for these, or something like them? Thank you.

Please help if you can! I was once an over-the-road Trucker and had a wonderful Cream of Mushroom soup in the Port Authority of New Jersey at one of the many "Stands" located throughout the port. It had as it's constituents garlic and oregano, was beef-based, and was very thick in consistency. Might you know of a recipe for this type of mushroom soup? It was very similar in nature to "Polish-style" Cream of mushroom soup, which, by the way, I would also love a recipe for. The polish style soup uses potato flour or starch in it, and can be bought as a powdered soup in many places, but I have yet to find a real recipe for it. Thanks ever so much, and thanks for the wonderful site!

Hi! I love your website; I surf it during my lunch hour. I was hoping
that you might be able to help me find the recipe for an incredible dish
I had at Walt Disney World last summer. At Disney's Bourbon Street
Resort (it resembles New Orleans) they serve a delicious pasta dish of
blackened scallops on a bed of pasta with tomato cream sauce. Do you
have any ideas on how I might be able to get this recipe?

Many thanks.

Do you have any idea where I could find the recipe for "Tout Care" I do not

Hi TKL,

Really enjoy your site. I was wondering if you had any recipes on

Breadman bread machine, but can you make them in other brands as well.

Thanks,

Once while I was surfing, I came across this form. After you filled it out
you were entitled to sign up for manufacturers coupons and chose the store in which you could redeem the coupons. For example "Dove" soap would give you a cents off coupon that was printed with your name on it and then you could print it out and take it to that store. Where can I find this web site? I would really appreciate your help.

Do you remember the product Junket by Redco Foods Co. The company is still in business and produces the caplets for shakes etc.. however they use to make the product for custard much like a jello pudding mix.

I'm trying to find a recipe for Ezekiel or Essene bread. It is usually made
of mixed grains. The grains are sprouted before they are made into bread.
I'm not sure what happens after the sprouting. I have looked everywhere for this recipe. I've purchased this type of bread in health food stores and it is labeled "non"grain" probably because the grains are sprouted, changeing the starches and enzymes in the seed. If you could help me or tell me a site where I could find this recipe, I would really appreciate it.

When I mix up juice or lemonade I like to store it in the refrigerator
in glass containers. In the past, I've always used the jars that orange
or other juice came in. Now, I find that juice is bottled mostly in
plastic containers. There are a few exceptions, such as Ocean Spray,
but the largest bottle I can find from them is 48 onces (frozen lemonade
makes up to 64 onces). I have looked in hardware stores for large glass
refrigerator containers. All I see is plastic. I'm even hunting at
antique stores now and long for the days when all containers were
glass. I have some antique glass pitchers, but hate to use them for
every day. Do you know where I can find 64 oz glass jars with lids? Do
any of the kitchen supply companies have them?

Any ideas on the above subject will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Sincerely,

Judy

RUSSIAN BLACK BREAD
Makes 3 loaves
3 1/2 cups dark rye flour
3 1/2 cups bread flour
1 tsp. sugar
2 tsp. salt
2 cups whole bran cereal
2 Tbsp. crushed caraway seeds
1/2 tsp. crushed fennel seeds
2 tsp. instant coffee
2 tsp. onion powder
2 pkg. active dry yeast
2 1/2 cups water
1/4 cup vinegar
1/4 cup dark molasses
1 square unsweetened chocolate
1/4 cup safflower oil
4 Tbsp. margarine
1 egg white beaten with 1 Tbsp. water for glaze
Sesame seeds (optional)
Combine rye and bread flours. In another bowl combine 2 1/2 cups of
the flour mixture with the sugar, salt, bran, caraway and fennel seeds,
coffee, onion powder, and yeast. In a saucepan combine water, vinegar,
molasses, chocolate, oil and margarine and cook over low heat until warm,
about 120 degrees F. Margarine and chocolate need not be completely melted.
Gradually add liquid mixture to dry ingredients and beat thoroughly.
Gradually stir in enough flour to make a soft, workable dough. Turn onto
a floured surface (use bread flour for the kneading) and knead 10 minutes,
or until smooth and elastic. Round into a ball and place in a warm bowl
brushed with melted margarine, turning to coat top. Cover loosely with
plastic wrap and a towel and let rise until doubled...about 1 hour.
Punch down and divide into 3 portions. Knead each, cover and let rest
10 minutes. Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray. Form dough into
baugette loaves 16-17 inches long. Place on baking sheet, cover and let
rise 1 hour.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Brush loaves with the egg glaze, sprinkle
with sesame seeds, if desired, and bake 45 minutes. Let loaves cool on
wire racks.

LEMON-FLAVORED VODKA

1 small Lemon
1 quart Vodka

Remove the thin outer peel from a small lemon in one long spiral; avoid the bitter white pith. Drop it into a quart
of vodka and let stand at least 1 week, removing the peel when you think its job has been done. The lemon colors
the vodka pale yellow and imparts a slight citrus sweetness and pungency.

TO USE: Serve the vodka chilled. If you wish, the vodka may be stored in the freezer.

ALE'D POTATO SOUP

(serves six as a first course)

This soup makes a sublime first course. The ale, ham and shallots add an appealing change of pace to the creamy
potato base. Prepare with a golden ale (or a sweet American-style cream ale), and serve with a malty, semi-sweet
brown ale or - for the more adventurous - a full-bodied and malty Trappist ale.


3 tablespoons butter
5 medium baking potatoes, peeled and kept in water
2 medium onions, finely chopped
2 cups light or heavy cream
chopped Italian parsley or scallions for garnishing
1 1/2 cups golden ale / cream ale
3 - 4 ounces of Canadian bacon, or ham julienned
1 teaspoon dried thyme OR dill
2 cups light chicken stock
2 shallots, finely chopped
salt and pepper to taste


Heat the butter on medium heat. Fry the Canadian bacon until lightly browned and crisp. Remove and set aside.

Add the chopped onions to the pan and saut* until wilted. Add the shallots and continue cooking until a pale gold.
Remove the onions and add them to the Canadian bacon.

Combine the stock, beer, and thyme in a large Dutch oven and heat over medium-high heat. While the stock
heats, julienne the potatoes. Add the potatoes, Canadian bacon, and onions to the stock and bring the mixture to a
slow boil. Cook until the potatoes are tender but still hold their shape (35 - 40 minutes).

Remove from heat. Slowly stir in the cream. Reheat just until bubbles begin to form around the edges. Remove
from heat, taste, and adjust salt and pepper. Garnish each bowl with freshly minced Italian parsley or scallions.

loaves of each piece and either place in greased bread pans or freeform and put on cookie sheet covered with
cornmeal 3 inches apart - let raise again - then bake in 350 degree oven for 30 minutes or until when thumped,

I found this recipe for Ezekeil Bread at http://countrylife.net/bread in the
recipe bin. Also, Arrowhead Mills makes an Ezekiel Flour which can be
found in most health food stores. If you need a recipe to correspond with
the Arrowhead Mills flour I think I have one in a cookbook somewhere. Good
luck!
Ezekiel Fasting Bread


2 1/2 cups hard red wheat
1 1/2 cups spelt or rye
1/2 cup hulled barley
1/2 cup millet
1/4 cup green lentils
2 T. great northern beans
2 T. red kidney beans
2 T. pinto beans

Stir the above ingredients very well. Grind in flour mill.

Measure into large bowl:
4 cups lukewarm water
1 cup honey
1/2 cup oil
2 T. Red Star Yeast
Set aside for 3-5 minutes to allow yeast to grow.

Add to yeast mixture:
2 t. salt
fresh milled flour from above mixture of grains

Stir until well kneaded about 10 minutes. This is a batter type bread an
will not form a smooth ball.

Pour dough into greased pans. You may use 2 large loaf pans or 3 med.
loaf pans or 2-9x13 pans. Let rise in a warm place for one hour or until
the dough is almost to the top of the pan. If it rises too much it will
over flow the pan while baking. Bake at 350 for 45-50 minutes for loaf

SOURDOUGH STARTER

2 cups warm water
1 tbsp active dry yeast
2 tbsp honey
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup whole wheat flour

In med. nonreactive bowl, combine warm water, yeast and honey. Let stand about 10 minutes or until it becomes foamy.

Using wooden spoon, stir in all-purpose flour and whole-wheat flour until smooth. Transfer mixture to nonreactive container, large enough to allow starter to double in bulk. Cover and let stand in warm place 3 to 5 days, stirring mixture at least 3 times daily. It will rise and fall, remain bubbly and have pleasant sour smell. When starter develops flavor and aroma that are pleasing to you, it is ready to use.

Starter will keep indefinitely if stored, tightly covered, in refrigerator. If it develops orange or pink color, discard it. Once starter is made, it must be replenished at least once every 2-3 weeks to keep it alive.

To replenish the starter: Remove 1 cup starter and discard (or use). Add 1 cup flour and 1 cup tepid water to remaining starter, stirring until smooth. Cover and let stand in warm place 8-10 hours. before refrigerating it again.

baking pan. Lay fish fillets on top of onion. Baste with lime or lemon. Coat fish generously with mayonnaise
blended with herbs and spices. Top with cracked pepper. Bake uncovered until fish flakes easily. (This depends
on the thickness of the fillets.) Garnish with green herbs.

GRAPE MARMALADE

4 quarts grapes
2 cups sugar (approximately)
1/2 lemon rind

Wash grapes. Separate skins and pulp. Simmer pulp
until soft. Remove seeds in colander. Combine skins and pulp.

Measure skins and pulp. Add 2/3 as much sugar as combined
skins and pulp. (I use less sugar, about 1/2 of above, to
accent tartness.) Simmer slowly, stirring frequently, until
juice sheets from spoon. Add the slivered skin of 1/2 lemon
when half done.

Place in sterilized jars. Store in refrigerator and use within 4 weeks.

Yes, you can substitute green tomatoes(Roma and others)when you make "Salsa Verde" The only difference you may encounter is that the tomatillos are more tart and/or astringent that regular green tomatoes, other than that they will work. You might also try asking your grocer to see if he can order them - Canned - They are available, probably through Old El Paso, Ortega, Rosarita, etc. It won't hurt to ask.

Here is a recipe from Hot & Spicy Mexican by Dave Dewitt:

The Sauce

15-20 chiltepines, crushed
15 dried red new mexican chiles, seeds and stems removed
1 tsp. salt
water to boil chiles
3 cloves garlic
1 tsp. vegeetable oil
1 tsp. flour

In a saucepan, combine the chiles, salt and enough water to cover. Boil for 10 to 15 minutes or until the chiles are quite soft.

Allow the chiles to cool and then puree them in a blender along with the garlic. Strain the mixture, mash the pulp through the strainer, and discard the skins.

Heat the oil in a suacepan and add the flour. Brown the flour, taking care that it does not burn. Add the chile puree and boil for 5 to 10 minutes until the sauce has thickened slightly. Set aside and keep warm.

The Tortillas

Grouper Baked in Lemon Cream
1 skinless grouper fillet (about 2 lbs)
1 cup whipping cream
5 teaspoon lemon juice
2 tablespoons instant minced onion
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 egg yolk

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Wipe fish with damp cloth; arrange in a greased large, shallow baking dish.
In a bowl, combine cream, lemon juice, onion, and salt and mix well. Pour evenly over fish. Bake, uncovered until fish flakes readily when prodded in thickest portion with a fork. For a 1-inch thick piece of fish (measured in thickest portion), allow 10 minutes. (Allow same ratio of thickness to time-1 inch:10 minutes-for fish of all thicknesses).
When done remove pan from oven. With a wide spatuala, lift fish from hot cream mixture; drain briefly and transfer to a warm serving platter. Cover and keep warm.
In a small pan, beat egg yolk slightly. Using a wire whip, beat a little of the hot cream mixture into egg. Then pour remaining hot cream mixture into egg mixture, beating constantly. Cook egg and cream mixture, stirring, over low heat until slighly thickened(about 5 to 10 minutes)-do not boil. Pour evenly over fish and serve immediately. Makes 4 to 6 servings.

I'm hoping this might help the lady who needed recipes for her Muscidine grapes. This recipe calls for Concord grapes but, just maybe her grapes would subsitute. Here it is.

CONCORD GRAPE PIE

FILLING:
1 1/2 quarts concord grapes, washed
1 cup sugar
2 tbsp cornstarch
CRUST:
3 cups sifted flour
1 tsp salt
1 1/4 cups shortening
1 egg, well beaten
4 tbsp cold water
1 tbsp vinegar

Squeeze pulp out of grapes and set skins aside. Sieve seeds out of pulp and combine skins and pulp in a saucepan.

Add the sugar and cornstarch and mix well. Cook over low heat until thick; set aside to cool.

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

Sift flour and salt into a large bowl; add shortening and mix with a pastry blender.

In another bowl, combine the egg, water, and vinegar. Drizzle over flour mixture and mix until it holds together in a ball. Divide dough in half. Roll into two rounds 1/8-inch thick*.

Place one round into a 9-inch pie pan. Pour in grape mixture. Top with remaining crust, seal and cut several slits in the top.

Bake at 400 degrees for 30 minutes or until crust is done and pie is bubbly.

*Tip: Do not over roll the pie dough, or it will be tough. Roll only until you reach the desired size.

You use the 5 minute oats and mix as the box says. Cook in crockpot on low heat overnight. Once the lid is open use the oatmeal right away.
