Subject: RE: M'Cat Cookbk fundraiser II-POST RECIPEs From: Jeri Date: 18 Sep 01 - 03:15 AM Sean, I actually started doing this as an HTML thingie, but got involved with a job and never got around to finishing it. (KerTHUNK - dropped the ball.) I never realised how difficult it was going to be, what with categorising recipies, arranging them, trying to decide if there should be a special category for road kill and other possibly-not-serious recepies... Also, there are more than just two threads, I believe. There was the Pound Cake thread, 2 Ethnic Crossover threads, a grits thread, a Good Home Cookin' thread, and a few others. Also, assorted recipies in the tavern threads and other places. I'll see if I can find the threads and provide links. |

Cook until soft enough to press through colander or ricer or mash well (the last is best). Add sugar to pulp and cook until very thick. Let cool. ROLL out one half of the pastry large anough to line a baking sheet. Spread fruit mixture on this and cover with other half of pastry. Press edges together. Sprinkle with sugar-cinnamon mixture. MARK in small squares before baking and prick each square with fork. BAKE in hot oven about 20 minutes (do not brown too much). COOL and cut as marked. Pastelitos should be about as thick as the little finger. Makes about 35. PASTEL (Pastry) 2 cups flour 1/2 teaspoon baking powder 3/4 teaspoon salt 2/3 cup butter or lard 4 to 6 tablespoons cold water Mix and sift dry ingredients.

Subject: RE: M'Cat Cookbk fundraiser II-POST RECIPEs From: guinnesschik Date: 19 Sep 01 - 09:07 AM I see no entries on the lowly bean! I make a hella pot of beans. So much so, that folks who usually hat ethem, ask for seconds! (and no, they'e not feeding 'em to the dog!) Black Bean Soup
1 lb black beans Soak your beans over night. Chop veggies and grate carrots. Sautee aromatics, garlic, and herbs in much olive oil until onions are transparent. If you cook this in a crock pot, put everything in all at once and forget about it for six hours. If you're cooking stove top, it can be done in two. Add your olive oil logged goodies to the beans, add the can of tomatoes and chilies. Slowly add the Guinnes, 'cause it will bubble up something fierce. Add about a half a cup to a cup of olive oil. Don't add salt until you're ready to serve, 'cause it hardens the bean skins. This is so good served with a really dark grainy bread and muenster cheese. |
