Peaches and Coconut Cream Pops
1 can (13 Oz. Size) Coconut Milk, Refrigerated Overnight. 1/2 cups Coconut Cream (the Thick, Top Layer Of Cream From The Can Of Refrigerated Coconut Milk). 13 cups Light Coconut Milk. 1/2 cups Plain, Non-fat Greek Yogurt. 13 cups Granulated Sugar. 2 Large Peaches, Pitted And Diced Into Quarter-inch Cubes.
Note that the total prep time is 6 hours and 15 minutes but 6 hours of it is inactive (for freezing). Youll also need 8 popsicle sticks and an 8-count popsicle mold. The night before preparing this recipe, refrigerate the can of regular coconut milk. The 1/2 cup of thick, creamy layer that rises to the top of the can is required for this recipe. Use the rest of the can of milk for another purpose. In a large mixing bowl, stir and combine the 1/2 cup of coconut cream and the rest of the ingredients listed above. Spoon mixture into popsicle molds, filling each mold to the brim. Add popsicle sticks and freeze overnight, or for at least 6 hours. Remove popsicles by running the mold under warm water for several seconds.

Butterscotch Cashew Pretzel Cookies
1- 1/2 cup All-purpose Flour. 1/2 teaspoons Sea Salt. 1/2 teaspoons Baking Soda. 3/4 teaspoons Baking Powder. 1/2 cups Butter, Room Temperature. 1/4 cups Sugar. 3/4 cups Brown Sugar, Packed. 1 whole Egg. 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract. 1 cup Butterscotch Chips. 1 cup Cashew Pieces. 1 cup Pretzels.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper or a Silpat liner. Mix the flour, salt, baking soda, and baking powder in a large bowl until combined. Set aside. In the bowl of a stand mixer, cream the butter and sugars together until very fluffy, about 3 minutes. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and add the egg and vanilla. Continue to mix for 3-4 minutes until the mixture is fluffy and homogenous. Add in the flour mixture and mix on low speed just until incorporated and all streaks of flour are mixed in. Add the butterscotch chips, cashews and pretzels and continue to mix with the mixer until combined. This helps break up the pretzels a bit. Scoop the cookie dough using a 2-3/4 ounce ice cream scooper (or a 1/3-cup measuring cup) onto the prepared sheets about 2 inches apart. Lightly pat down the tops of the scoops and bake in the prepared oven for 12-14 minutes, just until the edges begin to brown. Allow the cookies to cool for 5 minutes on the cookie sheets, and then the rest of the way on a wire cooling rack. Adapted from Cookie Cravings by Maria Lichty.

CI Shrimp Fra Diavolo
1 12 lbs large shrimp (26-30 count per pound, peeled and deveined, shells reserved). 12 teaspoon salt (if shrimp have not been treated with salt already). 1 (28 ounce) can whole canned tomatoes. 1 tablespoon vegetable oil, for browning shrimp shells. 1 cup dry white wine. 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, for browning garlic and anchovies. 4 garlic cloves, minced. 12-1 teaspoon red pepper flakes. 12 teaspoon dried oregano. 14 teaspoon salt (if shrimp had been treated with salt when packaged). 2 anchovy fillets, rinsed, patted dry, and minced. 14 cup fresh basil, chopped. 14 cup fresh Italian parsley, chopped. 1 12 teaspoons pepperoncini peppers, minced. 1 teaspoon pepperoncini juice (from pepperoncini peppers). salt, to taste. 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil.
Peel and devein shrimp; RESERVE SHRIMP SHELLS for Step 3. Check the ingredients listing on the shrimp bag. If shrimp have been treated with salt, go directly to Step 2. Otherwise, toss shrimp with 1/2 teaspoon salt and set aside until Step 11. Pour tomatoes into a colander set over a large bowl. Release the tomato juice from the tomatoes by piercing the tomatoes with the edge of a rubber spatula. Stir briefly to release juice. Transfer drained tomatoes to small bowl, until Step 9. RESERVE TOMATO JUICE for Step 5. DO NOT WASH COLANDER. In 12-inch skillet over high heat, heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil until shimmering. Add shrimp shells and cook, stirring frequently, until they begin to turn spotty brown and skillet starts to brown, 2-4 minutes. Remove skillet from heat and carefully add wine. When bubbling subsides, return skillet to heat and simmer until wine is reduced to about 2 tablespoons, 2-4 minutes. Add reserved tomato juice from Step 2 and simmer to meld flavors, 5 minutes. Pour contents of skillet into colander set over bowl. Discard shells and RESERVE LIQUID for Step 10. Wipe out skillet with paper towels. Over medium heat in now-empty skillet, heat remaining 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, garlic, pepper flakes and oregano. (If shrimp had been treated with salt when packaged, now add 1/4 teaspoon salt. If you tossed shrimp with 1/2 teaspoon of salt in Step 1, do not add more salt now.) Stir occasionally, until garlic is straw-colored and fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Add anchovies and stir until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Remove skillet from heat. Add drained tomatoes from Step 2 and mash with potato masher until coarsely pureed. Return skillet to heat and stir in reserved tomato juice from Step 6. Increase heat to medium-high and simmer until mixture has thickened, about 5 minutes. Add shrimp to skillet and simmer gently, stirring and turning shrimp frequently, until they are just cooked through, 4-5 minutes. Remove pan from heat. Stir in basil, parsley, and pepperoncini and pepperoncini juice and season with salt to taste. Drizzle with extra-virgin olive oil and serve.

The Most Amazing Tasting Ribs in the World!
2 tablespoons kosher salt. 2 tablespoons paprika. 4 teaspoons garlic powder. 4 teaspoons chili powder. 2 teaspoons black pepper. 1 teaspoon ground cumin. 4 (2 -2 1/2 lb) baby back ribs, racks 2 - 2 1/2 pounds each. hickory chips, soaked in water for at least 30 minutes (2 large handfuls). 1 cup kraft chick'n rib barbecue sauce. 12 cup hoisin sauce. 2 tablespoons liquid honey. 3 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce. 1 teaspoon soy sauce. 12 teaspoon chili powder. 12 teaspoon paprika. 12 teaspoon garlic powder. 12 teaspoon black pepper. 1 cup apple juice. 2 tablespoons butter. 2 -3 tablespoons barbecue sauce (from above).
In a small bowl mix rub ingredients. Season ribs all over, putting more on the meaty side than on the bone side. Do not press spices into the meat. Put ribs in a rib rack all facing the same direction. Make sure the charcoal in your barbecue covers no more than 1/3 of the grate. Place a large disposable drip pan on the other side of the charcoal grate. Fill the pan about half way with warm water. Drain 1 hand full of hickory chips and place them on top of the charcoal. Put the cooking grate in place. Place the rib rack over the drip pan as far from the charcoal as possible, with the bone sides facing the charcoal. Close the lid. Close the top vent about halfway. Let the ribs cook and smoke for about one hour. Maintain temperature between 250F and 300F by opening and closing the top vent. Meanwhile, make the sauce and the mop. In a small saucepan mix the barbeque sauce ingredients. Simmer for a few minutes over medium heat, and then remove the sauce pan from the heat. In another small saucepan mix the mop ingredients. Simmer over medium heat for a few minutes to melt the butter, and then remove the saucepan from the heat. After the first hour of cooking add 8 - 10 charcoal briquettes and the remaining handful of hickory chips (drained) to the fire. At the same time lightly baste the ribs with some mop. Leaving the lid off for a few minutes while you mop the ribs will help the new briquettes to light. Close the lid and cook for another hour. During that time maintain the temperature at 250F - 300F by opening and closing the top vent. After another hour of cooking add 8 to 10 more briquettes to the fire. Remove the ribs from the rib rack, spread them over a clean work surface, and based them generously with the mop sauce. You may add 2 more tablespoons of barbecue sauce to the mop sauce if you wish. Put them back in the rib rack, again all facing the same direction, but this time turned over so that the ends facing down earlier now face up. Also, reposition any ribs that appear to be cooking faster to the back of the rib rack, farther from the charcoal. Let the ribs cook for a 3rd hour. During that time, maintain temperature of 250F - 300F. After 3 hours of cooking, check to see if any racks are ready to come off the grill. They are done when the meat has shrunk back from most of the bones by 1/4 inch or more. When you lift a rack by picking it up from one end with tongs, the rack should bend in the middle and the meat should tear easily. If the meat does not tear easily, continue to cook the ribs. The total cooking time could be anywhere from 3 to 4 1/2 hours. Not all racks will cook in the same amount of time. Baste the ribs with the barbeque sauce and, if desired for crispiness, cook them over direct heat for a few minutes. Transfer to a baking sheet and tightly cover with aluminum foil. Let rest for 10 - 15 minutes before serving. Serve warm with the remaining sauce on the side.

Garlicky Spinach Rice
1 12 cups long-grain rice. 1 bunch spinach. 2 -3 cloves garlic. 2 tablespoons olive oil. salt and pepper.
Cook the rice in a rice cooker, or according to the directions on the package. (Don't make it too dry... a little moisture will help it all stick together later!) Wash the spinach well-- spinach tends to be very gritty. Chop off the bottom 1" or so of the stems; tear or chop the remaining leaves and stems into 2"-3" long sections. Toss the spinach into a pot, along with 1/4 cup of water. Heat on high; when the water boils, cover the pot. Cook for 2-3 minutes, until the spinach is wilted. Drain and set aside. In a skillet, heat 2 tbsp. olive oil on medium. When the oil is hot (throw in a piece of garlic and it sizzles), add the chopped garlic and saute for 2-3 minutes, until the garlic begins to soften and turn translucent. Add the drained spinach and saute for another couple of minutes. Season to taste with salt and plenty of pepper. Add the cooked rice and stir well to combine. Taste, then add more salt and pepper as necessary. Serve.

Wild Mushroom Beef Stew With Herbed Zucchini Noodles
2 (10 ounce) cans beef broth. 2 ounces assorted dried mushrooms. 1 tablespoon canola oil. 1 12 lbs beef eye round, cut into 1-inch cubes. 1 small red onion, diced. 1 carrot, sliced into thin rounds. 1 parsnip, sliced into thin rounds. 1 stalk celery, sliced thin. 4 garlic cloves, crushed. 2 sprigs fresh thyme. 2 tablespoons tomato paste. 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour. 1 cup red Zinfandel wine. 1 (14 ounce) can crushed tomatoes. 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar. 12 cup fresh parsley leaves, chopped. 2 large zucchini. 2 teaspoons unsalted butter. 1 tablespoon fresh parsley leaves, chopped. 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leave, chopped. 1 tablespoon fresh oregano leaves, chopped. 1 teaspoon lemon pepper. 4 ounces egg noodles, cooked and drained. 1 teaspoon salt. 1 teaspoon pepper. 1 tablespoon parmesan cheese, freshly grated.
Bring beef broth to a boil in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Turn the heat off, and add the dried mushrooms. Set aside and allow mushrooms to absorb the moisture of the beef broth and the beef broth to absorb the flavor of the mushrooms, about 5 minutes. Heat a heavy bottom nonstick Dutch oven or stockpot with the canola oil over medium- high heat. Add the beef cubes, being careful not to overcrowd the pot. Sear the cubes on all sides until well browned. (Take your time on this step, because if you skimp or rush here, the stews flavor will suffer). Once browned, remove cubes and set aside. Drain any excess oil. Return the Dutch oven to medium-high heat and add the onions, carrot, parsnip, celery, garlic, and thyme. Saute until onions begin to caramelize. Once the onions have taken on a caramel color, add the tomato paste and mix well. Allow tomato paste to caramelize slightly, about 2 minutes or until it slightly darkens in color. Remove mushrooms from beef broth, allowing any accumulated sand to settle to the bottom of the saucepan. Chop mushrooms roughly and set aside. Pour beef broth through a coffee filter into a measuring cup. This will separate any accumulated sand from our flavorful broth. Set aside. Once the tomato paste has caramelized, sprinkle flour over the mixture and mix well, scraping the bottom. Stir for about 1 minute to cook out the flour flavor. Add the wine and scrape the bottom of the pot to loosen any vegetables that may have stuck. Pour in the beef broth and crushed tomatoes. Bring to a simmer for approximately 5 minutes or until stew thickens. Add the seared beef cubes and the mushrooms to the pot. Cover and simmer over medium-high heat until meat is tender, about 15 minutes. Stir in the red wine vinegar. Taste and adjust flavor with salt and pepper. Stir in parsley and remove from heat. Serve with Herbed Zucchini Noodles, instructions below. Carefully drag a vegetable peeler the length of the zucchini to create long strands. Discard centers with the seeds. Heat a large nonstick saute pan over medium heat with the butter. Add the zucchini and quickly toss to coat with the butter. Add parsley, thyme, oregano, and lemon pepper. Toss again and warm through, about 1 minute. Add the egg noodles. Toss once again until pasta is warmed through but zucchini remains crisp tender. Taste and adjust flavor with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with Parmesan. Toss again and serve warm.

Leek, Kale and Potato Latkes
5 cups, tightly packed, grated potatoes (use a starchy potato like Idaho or Yukon gold). 2 large leeks, halved lengthwise, cleaned and sliced very thin. 1/2 pound kale, stemmed, washed, dried and finely chopped or cut in thin slivers (about 3 cups, tightly packed). 1 teaspoon baking powder. Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste. 2 teaspoons cumin seeds, lightly toasted and coarsely ground. 1/4 cup chopped chives. 1/4 cup all-purpose flour or cornstarch. 2 eggs, beaten. About 1/4 cup canola, grape seed or rice bran oil.
Preheat the oven to 300 degrees. Meanwhile, place a rack over a sheet pan. In a large bowl mix together the potatoes, leeks, kale, baking powder, salt and pepper, cumin, chives, and flour or cornstarch. Add the eggs stir together. Begin heating a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add 2 to 3 tablespoons of the oil and when it is hot, take up heaped tablespoons of the latke mixture, press the mixture against the spoon to extract liquid (or squeeze in your hands), and place in the pan. Press down with the back of the spatula to flatten. Repeat with more spoonfuls, being careful not to crowd the pan. In my 10-inch pan I can cook 4 at a time without crowding; my 12-inch pan will accommodate 5. Cook on one side until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Slide the spatula underneath and flip the latkes over. Cook on the other side until golden brown, another 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to the rack set over a baking sheet and place in the oven to keep warm. The mixture will continue to release liquid, which will accumulate in the bottom of the bowl. Stir from time to time, and remember to squeeze the heaped tablespoons of the mix before you add them to the pan. Serve hot topped with low-fat sour cream, Greek yogurt or creme fraiche, or other toppings of your choice such as salsa, chutney or yogurt blended with cilantro, mint, and garlic.

Chicken Casserole
olive oil. 5 whole skinless chicken breasts (approx 150g-175g a breast). 2 leeks, sliced. 4 garlic cloves, crushed. 200 g button mushrooms, some halved and some quartered (I use brown button mushrooms as I prefer them but regular are fine.). 12 cup dry white wine. 1 cup water. 3 teaspoons Dijon mustard. 1 14 teaspoons chicken stock (concentrated, I use a very dense chicken stock paste so if using powder you may need to add a little). 2 medium carrots. 100 g sugar snap peas. 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leave. 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, finely chopped. 1 cup cream. 2 teaspoons cornflour. pepper.
I have written above to chop the button mushrooms both halved and quartered. This is because they vary in size, in that if they are a little bigger I tend to quarter them and for the smaller ones just halve them. If they are really small I just throw them in whole. So adjust for what you have, if all are really small don't bother cutting them. Cut chicken into approximately 1 inch pieces. Heat a small amount of olive oil in a pan and cook chicken in batches until browned all over. Remove and set to one side and wipe pan clean. Pour about 2 tablespoons more of olive oil to pan and add the sliced leeks, cook for 2-3 Min's and then add the garlic, cook for a minute more (I do it this way so I do not burn the garlic.) Now add the mushrooms cook for a further 2-3 Min's. I have a large, deep, fry pan that has a lid so I cook it all in the same pan, if you don't you will want to transfer the leek and mushroom mixture to a large saucepan before continuing. Add the white wine, water, mustard, chicken stock, thyme and parsley, stir. Return chicken and cover, let it simmer for 20 Min's or until chicken is cooked through. Boil or microwave carrots and sugar snap peas until tender. Add cream to chicken, mix a little water with cornflour and add. Add the carrots and sugar snap and stir over heat until mixture boils and thickens. Serve with either boiled new potatoes, mash or rice. Also the beauty with a casserole is that there are no hard fast rules, so add whatever vegetables you want. Either your favourite or what you have on hand. This is also a great way to use up leftover roast chicken or turkey and it tastes great.

Stewed Rhubarb With Pineapple
2 cups rhubarb, diced into 1/2 inch pieces. 2 cups fresh pineapple, diced into 1/2 inch pieces. 14 cup sugar (or less).
If your fruit is sweet you may need no sugar, or less sugar. Try to use as little as possible, depending on how sweet your fruit is. Mix together the rhubarb and pineapple chunks and sprinkle with sugar (if using). Let sit at least one hour to overnight, to allow juices from the fruit to collect. (Sugar helps to make more juices, so if the fruit isn't very sweet, you will need sugar to get the juices to come out of the fruit. ). Cook over medium heat until sugar disappears and rhubarb has softened (about 15 minutes or so). Allow to cool. Eat with yogurt, ice cream, whipped topping, toast, oatmeal, or by itself. Yum!

Preheat oven to 350 degrees In a skillet, melt 1/2 teaspoon of butter and add the red onion. Cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Set the onion aside. Place 2 slices of bread on your work surface. Top each with an equal amount of cheese. Top with the onions and place the remaining bread slices on top. Put 1 tablespoon butter in your skillet and cook on low heat to brown the butter. Be sure not to burn the butter. Add the sandwiches and cook until browned and toasty on the first side, about 1 1/2 minutes. Flip the sandwiches and cook for less than a minute. Remove the sandwiches from the skillet and place on a baking sheet. Spread the remaining butter on the sandwiches and place in the oven for 4 minutes, until everything is melted through.

A Patissier's Black Forest Cake
2 egg whites. 12 cup granulated sugar. 1 34 cups cake flour. 1 cup sugar. 34 teaspoon baking soda. 1 teaspoon kosher salt. 13 cup salad oil. 1 cup whole milk, divided into (2). 2 egg yolks. 2 ounces unsweetened chocolate squares. cocoa powder, instead of flour for the baking pans although flour can be used. 20 ounces pitted tart red cherries, drained. 12 cup port wine. 1 tablespoon kirschwasser, a cherry liqueur. 3 -4 drops almond extract. 3 ounces semi-sweet chocolate baking squares. 3 tablespoons kirsch. 1 whole egg, beaten. 1 cup whipping cream. 2 tablespoons granulated sugar. 6 tablespoons unsalted butter. 4 34 cups confectioners' sugar. 14 cup half-and-half. 1 12 teaspoons vanilla extract. 2 cups whipping cream. 2 tablespoons granulated sugar. 1 teaspoon vanilla. chocolate curls. whipped cream. maraschino cherry.
Pre Heat oven to 350 degrees, and make sure your fridge can house the cake periodically through out the prep. A DAY AHEAD: Begin with the cherry filling, it will take overnight to do it properly. Combine the can of drained cherries (DO NOT USE PIE FILLING) with 1/2 cu Port Wine, 1 TBLS Kirsch and 3-4 drops of Almond extract in a sealed container and chill overnight. Drain before using. ***The cake will be chilled periodically in between steps. If this is not done, your cake WILL fall apart. This cake needs to be assembled on a heavy- duty cake stand if it is to stay at home. If it is to be transported, use a cake carrier and drive carefully, then chill promptly to prevent it from "melting". For the cake: You will need (2) 9 x 1 1/2 in Round Cake pans, greased, lightly floured with either FLOUR or COCOA POWDER. **I line the bottom with PARCHMENT PAPER to aid in removal and to prevent sticking. Wire Racks will help when it is time to cool them. In the bowl of an electric mixer, with the WHISK attachment, beat 2 egg whites until soft peaks form. Gradually add 1/2 cu sugar and beat until stiff peaks form. *** Set aside in bowl. THE CAKE: Sift together 1 3/4 cu Cake Flour, 1 cu Sugar, 3/4 tsp baking soda, and 1 tsp Kosher salt into the mixing bowl. Add 1/3 cu Salad Oil and 1/2 cu Milk and beat on MED SPEED with paddle attachment, scraping bowl often. Add 1/2 cu milk, 2 egg yolks, and 2 oz of UNSWEETENED baking chocolate that has been melted in a double boiler and cooled. Beat 1 minute longer, scraping bowl frequently. Gently fold in the Egg White mixture by hand with a spatula. Pour into the prepared pans and bake about 30-35 minutes. Cool in pan 10 minutes; remove from pans and cool thoroughly on wire racks. When cooled, split the 2 layers, resulting in 4 total. ***Dental floss is a great way to do this, slowly "saw" from back to front. Set aside. CHOCOLATE MOUSSE: Combine 3 oz of SEMISWEET baking chocolate and 3 TBLS Kirsch in a double boiler: stir over hot, but not boiling water until chocolate melts and mixture is smooth. Let cool slightly, then slowly stir INTO 1 well beaten Egg. Whip 1 cu Whipping Cream and 2 TBSL Sugar. Fold into chocolate and chill atleast 2 hours. BUTTER FROSTING: an the bowl of an electric mixer, cream together the 6 TBLS butter, and HALF the Confectioner's Sugar. Add 2 TBLS half and half and 1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract. Gradually add in the remaining sugar. Once incorporated, add enough Half and Half to make it spreading consistency. Chill 30 min or so. *** Assembly should be done in stages to allow cake to set up and not fall! To Assemble: Spread 1/2 cu Butter Frosting on the cut side of a cake layer. With the remaining Butter Frosting, make a ridge 1/2 an inch wide and 3/4 of an in tall around the outside edge. Make a second ridge 2 in from the outside edge. **Think TARGET, or BULL's EYE. CHILL 30 MINUTES. Fill spaces with drained cherry filling. TOP WITH 2nd LAYER. Spread this layer with the MOUSSE. CHILL 30 MINUTES. * While this is chilling, whip 2 cu Whipping Cream and 2 TBLS sugar and 1 tsp Vanilla extract. TOP MOUSSE LAYER with 3RD CAKE LAYER. Use 1 1/2 cu Whipped Cream to cover this 3rd layer. CHILL 30 MINUTES. Top with the final 4TH layer, and use remaining Whipped Cream to cover sides and top of cake. Sift Cocoa Powder over top, and garnish with Chocolate curls or shavings, dollops of whipped cream and maraschino cherries. Chill 2 hours.

Bacon, Egg and Cheese Tart
1 cup All-purpose Flour. 1 teaspoon Baking Powder. 1/2 teaspoons Salt. 1 stick Unsalted Butter, Chilled And Cut Into 1" Pieces. 1/4 cups Cheddar Cheese, Shredded. 1/4 cups Ice Water. 2 whole Eggs. 3/4 cups Milk. 1 cup Cheddar Cheese, Shredded. 2 Tablespoons Chives, Chopped. 1/4 teaspoons Salt. 1/4 teaspoons Pepper. 6 slices Bacon, Cooked And Crumbled.
To make the crust, add the flour, baking powder, salt and butter into the bowl of a food processor and pulse a few times until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Do not over mix. Add the cheddar cheese and pulse once or twice just to combine. With the machine running, add the ice water through the feed tube and pulse until a dough ball forms. Wrap dough in plastic and refrigerate for at least one hour. After the dough has chilled, roll it out on a well-floured surface into about a 10 circle. Drape over a 9 tart pan (preferably one with a removable bottom), gently press the dough into the bottom and up the sides of the pan and then move your rolling pin across the fluted top to cut off the excess dough. Preheat oven to 350 F. Make the filling by beating together the eggs and milk in a large bowl. Add the cheese, chives, salt and pepper. Fold in the bacon and pour into the prepared tart dish. Bake in a preheated 350 F oven for approximately 50 minutes or until the custard is set and the dough is a light golden brown.

Boeuf Bourguignon
1/4 pound thick-sliced bacon. 3 pounds boneless beef chuck. 1/3 cup all-purpose flour. 2 tablespoons vegetable oil. 4 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter. 1/2 cup brandy. 1 (4-inch) piece of celery. 4 fresh parsley stems (no leaves). 4 fresh thyme sprigs. 2 bay leaves (not California). 2 cloves. 2 onions, finely chopped. 3 large garlic cloves, finely chopped. 2 carrots, cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices. 1 tablespoon tomato paste. 1 (750-ml) bottle dry red wine (preferably Burgundy or Cotes du Rhone). 1 pound small (1 1/2-inch) boiling onions or pearl onions. 1pound mushrooms, quartered if large. Accompaniment: peeled boiled potatoes tossed with butter and parsley. Special equipment: kitchen string.
Cook bacon in boiling salted water 3 minutes, then drain. Pat beef dry and season with salt and pepper. Divide flour and beef between 2 (1-quart) sealable plastic bags, seal, then shake to coat meat. Heat 1 tablespoons oil and 1 1/2 tablespoons butter in a wide 6- to 8-quart heavy pot over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking, then brown beef well on all sides in 2 or 3 batches, without crowding, adding remaining tablespoon oil as needed. Transfer to a bowl. Pour off any excess oil from pot, then add brandy to pot. Deglaze by boiling over high heat 1 minute, stirring and scraping up brown bits, then pour over beef. Tie celery, parsley, thyme, bay leaves, and cloves together with kitchen string to make a bouquet garni (tuck cloves into celery so they dont fall out). Heat 1 tablespoon butter in cleaned pot over moderately high heat until foam subsides, then saute bacon, stirring, 2 minutes. Add chopped onions, garlic, and carrots, then saute, stirring, until onions are pale golden, about 5 minutes. Add tomato paste and cook, stirring, 1 minute. Add wine, meat with juices, and bouquet garni and simmer gently, partially covered, until meat is tender, 3 1/2 to 4 hours. While meat simmers, blanch boiling onions in boiling salted water 1 minute and drain in a colander. Rinse under cold running water, then peel. Heat 1 tablespoon butter in a 3-quart heavy saucepan over moderately high heat until foam subsides, then saut boiling onions, stirring occasionally, until browned in patches. Season with salt and pepper. Add 2 cups water (1 1/2 cups if using pearl onions), then simmer, partially covered, until onions are tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Boil, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until liquid is reduced to a glaze, 5 to 10 minutes. Heat remaining tablespoon butter in a large nonstick skillet over moderately high heat until foam subsides, then saut mushrooms, stirring, until golden brown and any liquid mushrooms give off is evaporated, about 8 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Stir onions and mushrooms into stew and cook 10 minutes. Remove bouquet garni and skim any fat from surface of stew. Season with salt and pepper.

Brown Sugar Brownies
23 cups Vegetable Oil. 2- 1/4 cups Light Brown Sugar. 3 whole Eggs. 2-23 cups All-purpose Flour. 2 teaspoons Baking Powder. 1 teaspoon Salt. 2 cups Chocolate Chips. 1 cup Chopped Nuts.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 13x9 inch baking pan or line the pan with parchment paper. In a large bowl, mix together oil and brown sugar. Then add the eggs one at a time and beat until smooth. In a separate bowl, sift together dry ingredients and then add them to the brown sugar mixture. Mix well. Stir in chocolate chips and nuts. Spread batter into prepared baking pan. Batter will be thick! Bake until golden brown on top and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 25-30 minutes. * Remove from oven and let cool before removing from pan. Cut into squares and enjoy. * One thing Ive noticed is the baking time REALLY depends on your oven. When my Mom bakes these in her oven they take exactly 25 minutes. But when I make these in my oven they take a little longer, about 30 minutes, and I like mine still a little underbaked (they set up nicely as they cool). Check them at 25 minutes and if the toothpick has lots of batter clinging to it just pop them back in and check them after about another 5 minutes.

Whole Wheat Focaccia with Tomatoes and Fontina
1 teaspoon/4 grams active dry yeast. 1/2 cup/120 ml lukewarm water. 3/4 cup/90 grams unbleached all-purpose flour. 1 teaspoon/4 grams active dry yeast. 1 cup/240 ml lukewarm water. 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil. 1 1/4 cups/155 grams unbleached all-purpose flour. 2 cups/250 grams whole wheat flour or durum flour. 1 3/4 teaspoons/12 grams fine sea salt. 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil. 1 pound/450 grams fresh ripe tomatoes, sliced. 6 ounces/180 grams/3/4 cup grated or sliced fontina. Coarse salt to taste (optional). Chopped, slivered or torn fresh basil leaves.
Make the sponge. Combine the yeast and water in a large bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer and stir to dissolve. Whisk in the flour. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place until bubbly and doubled in volume, about 45 minutes. Make the dough. If using a stand mixer, whisk the yeast and the water in a small bowl and let stand until creamy, a few minutes. Add to the sponge in the mixer bowl, along with the olive oil. Add the flours and salt and mix with the paddle attachment for 1 to 2 minutes, until the ingredients are amalgamated. Change to the dough hook and knead on medium speed for 8 minutes. The dough should come together and slap against the sides of the bowl. It will be slightly tacky. To make the dough by hand, combine yeast and water as directed and whisk into the sponge along with the olive oil. Whisk in the all-purpose flour. Add the salt and remaining flour, one cup at a time, folding it in with a spatula or a wooden spoon. When you can scrape the dough onto a work surface, add flour to the work surface, scrape out the dough and knead for 8 to 10 minutes, until soft and velvety. Return to the bowl (oil the bowl lightly with olive oil first). Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap and let dough rise in a warm spot until doubled, about 1 1/2 hours. Shape the focaccia. Oil a 12-x 17-inch sheet pan (sides and bottom) with olive oil. Line with parchment and oil the parchment. Turn the dough onto the baking sheet. Oil or moisten your hands and press out dough until it just about covers the bottom of the pan. Dough may be sticky. Cover with a towel and let it relax for 10 minutes, then continue to press it out until it reaches the edges of the pan. Cover with a damp towel and let rise in a warm spot for 45 minutes to an hour, or until dough is full of air bubbles. Preheat oven to 425 degrees after 30 minutes of rising (30 minutes before you wish to bake), preferably with a baking stone in it. With lightly oiled fingertips or with your knuckles, dimple the dough, pressing down hard enough to leave indentations. Drizzle on the olive oil for the topping and arrange cheese over the surface. Top cheese with the sliced tomatoes and sprinkle tomatoes with coarse sea salt if desired. Place pan in oven on baking stone. Spray oven 3 times with water during the first 10 minutes of baking, and bake 20 to 25 minutes, until edges are crisp and the top is golden. If you wish, remove the focaccia from the pan and bake directly on the stone during the last 10 minutes of baking. Remove from oven and from pan and cool on a rack. Sprinkle basil over the top. If you want a softer focaccia, cover with a towel when you remove it from the oven. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Pigeon (Chicken) Pies
1 whole Rotisserie Style Chicken. 5 cups Low Sodium Chicken Stock. 2 cubes Chicken Bouillon. 12 Tablespoons Unsalted Butter. 1 cup Yellow Onion, Chopped. 3/4 cups All-purpose Flour. 1/4 heads Heavy Cream. 1/2 Tablespoons White Sugar. 1 Tablespoon Onion Powder. 1 teaspoon Black Pepper. 1 teaspoon Dried Rosemary. 1/2 teaspoons Ground Coriander. 16 ounces, weight Frozen Mixed Vegetables (carrots, Corn, Peas And Green Beans). 8 whole Pre-made Refrigerated Pie Crusts.
1. Remove skin from the rotisserie chicken and discard. Pull chicken off the bones and discard the carcass. Roughly chop chicken meat into bite sized cubes. You should have about 4 to 6 cups. Set this aside. 2. In a small saucepan over medium heat, heat the chicken stock and dissolve the bouillon cubes in the stock. In a large pot or Dutch oven, melt the butter then add the onions and saute them over medium-low heat for 10 to 15 minutes, until translucent. 3. Add the flour to the onions and cook over low heat, stirring constantly, for 2 minutes. Add the hot chicken stock into the sauce. Simmer over low heat for 1 more minute, stirring, until thick. Add heavy cream, sugar, onion powder, pepper, rosemary and coriander. Add the cubed chicken and mixed veggies. Mix well. 4. Remove chicken mixture from heat and allow to slightly cool. Preheat oven to 450 F. Spray two 12-cup muffins tins thoroughly with cooking spray. Roll out 1 pie crust at a time on a floured, smooth surface. 5. Using a 4 1/2 inch round cookie cutter (or perhaps a small bowl), cut out 24 shapes for the bottom crust, rolling out additional crusts as needed. Line the crusts in the bottoms of the muffin tins, making sure that the edges come out over the tops of the tins. 6. Spoon cooled chicken mixture into crust lined tins, about 2 heaping tablespoons per pie. Use a 4-inch round to cut out shapes for the top crusts, rolling out additional crusts as needed. Place top crusts over the tops of the tins, crimping the bottom crust edges together with the top ones to seal the pies. Spray pie tops with cooking spray. 7. Bake pies for about 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Allow to cool slightly before removing from muffin tins (they will be very hot). Recipe adapted from Ina Garten.

Drumsticks with Sriracha and Honey Lime Sauce
2 pounds Chicken Drumsticks. 1- 1/2 Tablespoon Soy Sauce. 1 Tablespoon Honey. 1 teaspoon Sriracha. 1/2 teaspoons Minced Garlic. 1 whole Lime, Zested. 1/2 whole Lime, Juiced. Optional For Serving: Sesame Seeds, Additional Lime Zest.
Heat a grill to 375 F. Place the plain drumsticks directly on the heated grill and let them cook for 25 minutes, turning once while cooking. Meanwhile, add the remaining ingredients (for the sauce) into a small saucepan and let it simmer on medium low while the drumsticks are cooking. You do not want it to boil. You just want to heat the mixture so the flavors meld and the sauce thickens a tiny bit. Remove drumsticks from grill and place in a large bowl (use one with a lid). Pour the sauce over the drumsticks, place lid on bowl and shake the bowl to evenly coat the drumsticks. Garnish drumsticks with any sauce thats left in the bowl, sesame seeds, and additional lime zest if desired.

225 g (7.9oz) plain white or wholewheat flour. 0.5 tsp baking powder. 0.5 tsp salt. 100 g (3.5oz) lard (or butter or half butter and half lard) cold, cut into small cubes. 1 handful of currants or raisins. 1 cup (you won't need all of it) sour milk you can substitute pouring yoghurt/buttermilk/fresh milk, but sour milk works best. 1 knob lard (or a splash of oil) to fry.
Sift the flour, baking powder and salt together. Add the fat and rub it in with your fingers to make small crumbs. Add the currants and distribute them evenly. Add some milk a little dribble at a time and mix it in with your hands until you have a stiff paste. Work the dough as little as possible certainly do not knead it. Form the dough into a ball and pat the ball into a disc about 1/2 inch (1 cm) thick. Heat the lard/oil in a heavy bottomed skillet just enough to cover the bottom in a thin coating. Put in the dough and listen out! Flip it when the singin stops and then wait for the singin to stop when you are frying the other side. Remove from the pan and serve warm with butter, jam, cheese or whatever you fancy.

Chocolate Roll Dainty
2 (1 ounce) semi-sweet chocolate baking squares (I prefer the sweet chocolate squares). 2 tablespoons margarine. 1 egg, beaten slightly. 34 cup graham cracker crumbs. 1 cup miniature marshmallow (I use the colored for special occasions). 12 cup walnuts (or pecans, chopped). 12 cup maraschino cherry (half if desired).
In a pot over low heat: Melt the chocolate and margarine. In a small bowl beat the egg slightly, carefully whisk into the above mixture until nicely blended. Remove from heat, add the graham crumbs. If the graham crumbs have not cooled the mixture to warm, allow mixture to cool to warm before folding in the marshmallows, walnuts, and cherries.You don't want to be melting the marshmallows. Shape into a roll on wax paper, rolling into the size you wish - basically like a sausage roll. For variety I often roll in flaked coconut which gives it an extra special look. Chill in refrigerator until set, slice and serve.

1 lb ground beef. 12 onion, chopped. 12 ounces pasta, any kind (I like Rotini or Bowtie). 1 (14 1/2 ounce) candiced Italian tomatoes (undrained). 1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce. 1 (10 3/4 ounce) can tomato soup. 1 teaspoon italian seasoning. 12 tablespoon dried parsley. 14 teaspoon pepper. 18 teaspoon salt (or to taste). 12 teaspoon garlic powder (or omit and use 2 Cloves of minced). 1 (8 ounce) packageshredded five-cheese Italian cheese blend (or cheese of your choice).
Preheat oven to 350'. In a medium skillet, add beef and onion and cook until beef is no longer pink and onion is translucent. Drain off fat and set aside. While beef is browning, in a large pot, cook pasta according to package directions. (I usually cook it a minute less than directed because it will cook while in the oven as well). When pasta is cooked drain and add rest of the ingredients to the pot, reserving 1/4 of the shredded cheese (about 1/2 cup) and blend well. Transfer above mixture to a large buttered baking dish and spread evenly. Top with remaining 1/4 of cheese. Cover and bake at 350' for 20-30 minutes. Uncover the last 5-10 minutes and bake until hot and bubbly and cheese on top is melted.
