Turkey Noodle Soup
I really like soup. The smell of hot soup on a cold day, with some noodles, is one of my favorite welcomes. I have fond childhood memories of coming home from school and finding that my grandmother had cooked some pastina or acini di pepe pasta (and yes, I’m Italian) in chicken broth which I… Continue reading Turkey Noodle Soup
Buttermilk Pancakes II (allrecipes.com)
This is a very simple, tasty recipe, posted to allrecipes.com by user BURYGOLD, who says, “A very light and fluffy pancake that requires fresh buttermilk, but it’s the best I’ve ever made!” They have largely displaced the traditional, family recipe for pancakes, we like them so much. http://allrecipes.com/recipe/24530/buttermilk-pancakes-ii 3 cups all-purpose flour3 tablespoons white sugar3… Continue reading Buttermilk Pancakes II (allrecipes.com)
Paprika Potato Casserole
This is our sister-in-law’s addition to our Thanksgiving dinner menu. You can tell how long we’ve been making this recipe – it calls for an old-style 10 ounce box of frozen chopped broccoli. We love it. It’s just great. 6 potatoes, peeled2 – 4 tablespoons butter½ cup milk2 tablespoons light cream1 can cream of mushroom… Continue reading Paprika Potato Casserole
Spaghetti Squash Au Gratin (food.com)
Our whole family loves this recipe, partly because we had grown tired of making spaghetti squash as a vehicle for Italian pasta sauce. Which is perfectly good – we just got stuck in a rut. You can find the original recipe on food.com, thanks to contributor Taylor’s Mommy. Mine only differs in using plain yogurt… Continue reading Spaghetti Squash Au Gratin (food.com)
Apple Crisp (The Vegetarian Epicure)
When we were dating, I and my little-did-I-know future spouse would often see a movie. One evening, we were feeling a bit peckish afterward and stopped at a Roy Rogers fast-food restaurant. We both ordered “Apple Cheese Crisp”, and for both of us it was like, “Where have you been all my life, Apple Cheese… Continue reading Apple Crisp (The Vegetarian Epicure)
Nut Cake (The Vegetarian Epicure)
I think these make a very nice gift for the holidays. It’s impressive when the slice reveals it is made mostly of nuts with a small amount of cake binding them together. And for your friends for whom fruitcake is unendurable: they will love this, or will at least be happy that it’s not fruitcake!… Continue reading Nut Cake (The Vegetarian Epicure)
Swedish Rye Bread…with a difference (The Vegetarian Epicure)
Because the wheat and rye are whole-grain, the bran in them degrades the gluten structure of the bread, which prevents the bread rising properly. To offset that tendency, the recipe adds gluten flour. This is the mysterious difference alluded to in the title. Caraway, anise, and orange rind give this bread its unique and wonderful… Continue reading Swedish Rye Bread…with a difference (The Vegetarian Epicure)
Challah Bread (The Vegetarian Epicure)
When I was a teenager I opened up my mother’s classic Amy Vanderbilt Cookbook (the one with illustrative line-drawings by Andy Warhol), and dared to make yeast-raised white bread. I say, “dared” because she had never made such bread and I would be flying blind, with only that cookbook serving as my flying instruments. By… Continue reading Challah Bread (The Vegetarian Epicure)
