Flaky Pie Crust Recipe

2011-07-27T21:48:00.003-04:00

Ingredients:

3 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp salt
1 cup solid vegetable shortening
3/4 cup cool water (more or less) not cold

How To Make a Perfect Flaky Pie Crust

Measure flour and salt into a large bowl making a well in the middle. Put shortening into the well.
Coat both hands with flour well. Being careful not to touch the shortening, break up the shortening into chunks.
This is an important step. Do not let the heat of your hands melt the shortening. The least amount of contact with the shortening the better.
With both hands, work the shortening into the flour using a circular, rubbing motion, always keeping contact with the flour, not the shortening, pick up more flour and shortening as you go. Always keep the shortening in the middle of the flour.
It should look like a small peas, with the shortening being totally incorporated into the flour.

Pour half the water in, gathering it into a ball. Continue adding the water until it comes together in a soft ball of dough. You may need more or less water depending on the humidity. Do NOT knead the dough as in bread making.
Work the dough as little as you have to, just enough to keep it formed in a ball.
Divide the dough into 3 or 4 equal portions.
Cover the dough and refrigerate it for later, or use now.

Take a handful of flour and throw/sprinkle it down on a counter top. Put the ball of dough in the middle of the flour.
Coat your rolling pin with flour. Start rolling the dough with the pin, turning the dough to get a round shape. This may take several passes over the dough, turning this way and that. Flip the dough over carefully, adding flour to your surface as needed. Finish rolling on this side to make a circle that is 4" bigger than your pan.
Fold the dough in half, place it in the pan unfolding to fit. Trim if necessary, but not too much. You want to have enough to fold the edges under.
Fold the edges under, turning the pan and pressing the edge as you go.
You now have a choice as to how you want to finish the crust. If you are making an open pie as in pumpkin or pecan, press the edges down with a fork to seal the edge and give it a nice pattern.
Or, you can crimp the edges using your thumb and forefinger of your left hand and the forefinger of your right hand, and go around the edge of the pie making a v-shaped pattern, all the while keeping the edge slightly higher than the pie pan.

Makes 3-4, 8 or 9 inch crusts

French Silk Pie Recipe

2011-07-27T21:44:00.004-04:00

Ingredients needed :

3/4 cup butter, softened
1 cup white sugar
3 one ounce squares unsweetened baking chocolate, melted
2 tsp pure vanilla
3 large eggs

Directions:

Melt chocolate in a small bowl over hot water. Do not let the chocolate harden up.
In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter at medium to high speed about 1 minute.
Add sugar, 1/4 cup at a time and continue to beat until light and fluffy. This will take 3-5 minutes. Scrape bowl often. It must be mixed long enough so it is no longer gritty.
Slowly add the melted chocolate to the butter mixture, beating on low to medium speed until the chocolate is well blended and mixture is smooth and creamy. Scrape again.
On medium speed, add eggs one at a time, beating after each one before adding the next egg.Scrape bowl.
Add vanilla and give it one more mix.
Spread into Pie Crust. Set aside.

1 cup Whipping cream
1/4 cup powdered sugar (confectioners sugar)
1/2 tsp pure vanilla
Chocolate curls, optional for garnish

Directions:

In large mixing bowl, beat cream until it sets up. There is no way to explain how long this will take. Every mixer is different. It should be light and fluffy and look like soft whipped cream. Do NOT let it get to the butter stage which can happen very quickly. If in doubt, under mix. You can always whip it a little more after the sugar is added.
Add powdered sugar and and vanilla and beat until fluffy and stiff. Do not over beat.
Put whipped cream into a pastry bag fitted with a large star tip and decorate the pie. Or pile the cream on high with a spatula.
Sprinkle with chocolate curls.
Refrigerate pie and any leftovers.

Makes one 9 inch pie

♥ ♥ Broccoli/Cauliflower Salad ♥ ♥

2011-04-29T14:46:00.005-04:00

Broccoli/Cauliflower Salad

1 head of cauliflower
3 "heads" of broccoli
1/2 lb. bacon (or more if you wish)
1/2 cup onion (chopped small)

Using flower part of cauliflower and broccoli, break into small pieces and
mix in a large bowl. Cook bacon crisp and drain well, break it up with your
hands and mix with veggies. Pour dressing over all and mix in.

Dressing: 1 Cup Miracle Whip Salad Dressing (mayo does not work)
3/4 Cup Sugar (I put 1/4 Cup cane sugar and 1/2 Cup Splenda)
3 tablespoons white vinegar

Mix together. This dressing goes a long way. I only use about 1/2 cup of
it to a large mixing bowl of veggies. NOTE: Dressing thickens when put
into 'fridge, so be careful how much you pour onto salad if it's cold.

I like to store this salad in a large container with a snap-on lid - then I can
shake it up to mix in the dressing before transferring to a serving dish.

Thank you Sue for yet another wonderful Recipe. This was a wonderful dish at a get together we had at our home for a bunch of wonderful friends. This dish was a big hit.

♥ ♥ ♥ Egg Custard ♥ ♥ ♥

2011-01-13T20:03:00.008-05:00

2 cups whole milk
2 eggs (preferably free-range)
2 egg yolks
1/3 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Freshly grated or ground nutmeg

Preheat oven to 300°F.

Place six 4-ounce ovenproof cups (you can use ramekins, or coffee cups marked as oven-safe) in a deep baking pan just large enough to hold them.

In a medium saucepan, bring the milk to a simmer over medium-low heat.

Meanwhile, in a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, yolks, sugar, and vanilla.

Slowly pour the egg mixture into the simmering milk, whisking gently to combine.

Pour the mixture through a fine strainer into the cups (if the strainer clogs, use a spoon to scrape it clean), then sprinkle lightly with the nutmeg.

Pour hot (not boiling) water into the pan until it reaches halfway up the sides of the cups.

Bake until the custard is just set (it can still be a little loose), 30 to 35 minutes.

Let the custard cool in the water bath for about 2 hours before serving.

ENJOY!

CHOCOLATE BATONS

Ingredients

1 cup butter, softened
1 cup sugar
1 large egg
1 egg yolk
2 tsp. vanilla extract
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

1 tsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp. salt

CHOCOLATE DIP
4 oz. semisweet chocolate (squares or chocolate chips)
2 tbsp. butter
1 tbsp. milk
Colored sprinkles

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease a baking sheet. In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter and sugar with an electric mixer. Beat in the egg and yolk, one at a time. Stir in the vanilla extract.

In a medium bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder and salt. Gradually add the flour mixture to the butter mixture until combined. Spoon the dough into a pastry bag fitted with a large rosette or star tip or into a zip-top bag with a 1-inch opening snipped off one corner.

Squeeze the dough into 2-inch logs on the cookie sheet. Bake for 12 minutes, or until just lightly browned. Cool for a few minutes, then transfer to racks to cool completely.

Meanwhile, prepare the chocolate dip. Melt the chocolate and 2 tablespoons of butter in the top of the double boiler (the water should be hot but not boiling) or in the microwave on high, stirring every 20 seconds until smooth. Stir in the milk and remove from the heat.

Dip both ends of the cookies in the chocolate, then immediately into sprinkles and let cool. Makes about 6 dozen batons.

2 C. finely shredded zucchini (I use more because I love zucchini!)
1 C. vegetable oil (substitute 1/2 cup of the oil for 1/2 cup applesauce)
1 can that is 8 ounces of crushed pineapple - drained
2 t. vanilla extract
3 C. all-purpose flour
2 C. sugar (substitute 1 cup of regular sugar with 1 cup Splenda)
2 t. baking soda
1 1/2 t. ground cinnamon
1 t. salt
1/2 t. baking powder
You can also add 1 cup of nuts and raisins but I leave them out.

Directions:
In a large bowl, combine eggs, zucchini, oil, pineapple and vanilla. Combine the dry ingredients in a separate bowl and stir into egg mixture just until moistened. If using nuts and raisins add those at this time.
Pour into two greased loaf pans. Bake at 350 degrees for 50-60 minutes or until toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks.

ENJOY!!!

THE 5 MINUTE CHOCOLATE CAKE FOR ONE PERSON.......HOW NEAT

4 tablespoons flour
4 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons cocoa
1 egg
3 tablespoons milk
3 tablespoons oil
3 tablespoons chocolate chips (optional)
A small splash of vanilla extract

Pour in the milk and oil and mix well..
Add the chocolate chips (if using) and vanilla extract, and mix again.
Put your mug in the microwave and cook for 3 minutes at 1000 watts.
The cake will rise over the top of the mug, but don't be alarmed!
Allow to cool a little, and tip out onto a plate if desired.
EAT ! (this can serve 2 if you want to feel slightly more virtuous).

♥ ♥ ♥ The wonders of coffee filters ♥ ♥ ♥

2010-01-30T00:14:00.000-05:00

Here are a few hints on how to save money with coffee filter see how many things they can be used for. I hope this is helpful to all of you

~ God Bless ~
Hugs :o)
♥ ♥ ♥

The wonders of coffee filters

Better than paper towels and a lot less expensive...

COFFEE FILTERS

Coffee filters .... Who knew! And you can buy 1,000 at the Dollar Tree for almost nothing even the large ones.

1. Cover bowls or dishes when cooking in the microwave. Coffee filters make excellent covers.

2. Clean windows, mirrors, and chrome... Coffee filters are lint-free so they'll leave windows sparkling.

3. Protect China by separating your good dishes with a coffee filter between each dish.

4. Filter broken cork from wine. If you break the cork when opening a wine bottle, filter the wine through a coffee filter.

5. Protect a cast-iron skillet. Place a coffee filter in the skillet to absorb moisture and prevent rust.

6. Apply shoe polish. Ball up a lint-free coffee filter.

7. Recycle frying oil. After frying, strain oil through a sieve lined with a coffee filter.

8. Weigh chopped foods. Place chopped ingredients in a coffee filter on a kitchen scale.

9... Hold tacos. Coffee filters make convenient wrappers for messy foods.

10. Stop the soil from leaking out of a plant pot. Line a plant pot with a coffee filter to prevent the soil from going through the drainage holes.

11. Prevent a Popsicle from dripping. Poke one or two holes as needed in a coffee filter.

12. Do you think we used expensive strips to wax eyebrows? Use strips of coffee filters..

13. Put a few in a plate and put your fried bacon, French fries, chicken fingers, etc on them. It soaks out all the grease.

14. Keep in the bathroom. They make great "razor nick fixers."

15. As a sewing backing. Use a filter as an easy-to-tear backing for embroidering or appliquÃ©ing soft fabrics.

16. Put baking soda into a coffee filter and insert into shoes or a closet to absorb or prevent odors.

17. Use them to strain soup stock and to tie fresh herbs in to put in soups and stews.

18. Use a coffee filter to prevent spilling when you add fluids to your car.

19. Use them as a spoon rest while cooking and clean up small counter spills.

20. Can use to hold dry ingredients when baking or when cutting a piece of fruit or veggies.. Saves on having extra bowls to wash.

21. Use them to wrap Christmas ornaments for storage.

22. Use them to remove fingernail polish when out of cotton balls.

23. Use them to sprout seeds. Simply dampen the coffee filter, place seeds inside, fold it and place it into a plastic baggie until they sprout.

24. Use coffee filters as blotting paper for pressed flowers. Place the flowers between two coffee filters and put the coffee filters in phone book..

25. Use as a disposable "snack bowl" for popcorn, chips, etc.

OH YEAH THEY ARE GREAT TO USE IN YOUR COFFEE MAKERS TOO.

♥ ♥ ♥ Tempura Chicken ♥ ♥ ♥

2010-01-10T16:27:00.001-05:00

This is so very easy anyone can do it. all you need is to go to your local Asian store and buy this Tempura Batter Mix.

The product is made by DD BELL Food Products
all you need to do in a large bowl is Mix Batter make sure it isn't too thick,and that there are no lumps. also if your doing 2 chicken breasts cubed you only need a small amount of this batter as it will cover a lot of chicken .
(I make 2 breasts for my hubby and I and I get about 5 or 6 mixes out of one bag.)

Take 2 or 3 Chicken breast's slice in strips and then cube
after putting the Chicken into the batter one piece at a time drop into hot oil until golden brown when adding each piece be careful they do not all stick together.
They will break apart easy while in oil with 2 forks but be careful you do not get burned.

the Photos should help you do this correctly and safely as well.
serve with "Saucy Susan or DAI DAY sweet and sour Duck Sauce"
