Sittin' Turkey Steamer  (online how to use video)
The steam keeps the inside of the turkey moist, while the surrounding heat creates a nice texture on the outside of the turkey.

To Val in Ark,
I copy and paste the recipes I want into an e-mail then send it to my other e-mail account then I go there and open the e-mail up and print it. That way I am not getting the whole page.
You can also copy and paste onto a word document or note pad then print it. Lotsa ways to get around printing the whole page for you. Cindy in Monterey


Hi Nancy & All,
Here is a TNT fish recipe. It is delicious. It calls for Flounder but here at my local Albertson's store they have a wonderful fish called BASA. It is very mild. Sometimes it is on sale for $2.99 a lb. I ask for it frozen and not from the Butcher Block case. Buy lots and keep it in my freezer.

Flounder Melted Cheese
2 T olive oil plus a little to brush on fish
4 flounder or any other fish you like
2 lemons grated rind & juice
4 oz. swiss cheese grated
4 T Panko bread crumbs
4 T sour cream
4 minced garlic cloves

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Brush fish with olive oil. Sprinkle fish with lemon juice and salt & pepper. Mix together 2 T olive oil, cheese , bread crumbs, sour cream, garlic, lemon rind, 6 T lemon juice, salt & pepper.
Spread on fish, Bake 12-15 minutes. Broil till brown & bubbley. Watch carefully only takes a minute or two.

I just want to say thanks to CindyO who in the 8/21 newsletter gave us a recipe for creamed peas over toast. What memories this brings back. When I was growing up we always had a huge garden and one of the first things ready was the green peas. Although she never served them over toast my mother did make them creamed and sometimes she even made dumplings in them. Creamed peas is my favorite way to eat peas and I make them to serve when I make salmon patties. This is one of my favorite meals.

This is for Lorraine in Wyoming who wanted a chicken and dumplings recipe. Lorraine this was my mothers recipe and she was always asked to bring it to family reunions. I don't really know how old the recipe is but my mother passed away at the age of 84 this past June 9. She'd been making it as long as I can remember and thankfully my daughter wrote the recipe down a while back. She always used a baking hen as it has a more intense flavor than a fryer.

Mamaw's Chicken and Dumplings
1 baking hen
2 quarts of water, more or less
1 teaspoon salt
2 cups self-rising flour
1/4 cup shortening
1/4 cup cold water
1/2 cup of evaporated milk (about)
1/2 stick of butter, melted
2 teaspoons black pepper

Cook chicken in the 2 quarts of water for about an hour until chicken is falling off the bone. Add salt after chicken is cooked.
Remove the chicken from the pot and save the broth. Cool the chicken and remove bones, fat and skin. Cut chicken into bite size pieces.

Dumplings:
Cut the shortening into the flour using a fork or a pastry cutter until the mixture forms coarse crumbs. Add the 1/4 cup of water, a little at a time, working from the center, using your hands to work the mixture into a dough. Roll the out to about 1/8" thick and cut into strips.
Add the evaporated milk to the broth and over medium-high heat, bring to a slow boil. Pinch off 1" portions from the dough strips and drop into the boiling broth. Gently stir after adding several pieces of dough. Repeat until all the dough mixture has been used. Add the chicken, butter and the black pepper. Stir gently, turn heat to low and simmer for about 10 minutes.

Hi Nancy,
I always enjoy reading about your 4 legged friends. I don't know much about cats, I am learning. I now have two. My grandchildren pick them out, then I feed them, and take care of all the other necessary things. We now have one male, Fudgie and another little female, she was dumped in the woods and my granddaughter came bringing her here. She has beautiful markings. I call her Pretty Girl. I thought at first, Fudgie was going to kill her. Now, he loves her and licks her. I told him he would make a good Momma. They bring us lots of
pleasure, watching them play.

Now, I want to thank Susan, AL. again. I made the bread today. It is delicious. I will take my granddaughter some tomorrow. She likes to dip it in Olive oil.

I would also like to thank JoAnn H, for sending in the recipe for No Knead Bread. I will try it soon. I truly enjoy making bread. Maybe, my sister, Doris, S. IN will smell it baking and drop by.

May God richly bless you, Nancy. You brighten many lives with your newsletter.

To jeanlock in McLean VA:
I'm looking forward to the recipe that you mentioned (Aug. 21) for the spaghetti Sauce with the cinnamon sprinkled on top. I just, always mixed the cinnamon into the sauce, but having a recipe with the instructions for the amount, etc. will be great. I'll certainly be watching for the recipe here. Thanks in advance.
Also to barbarain Wentzville: You're very welcome for the recipe for the Cauliflower. (Original submittance, Lesleigh in Pa)

Hi Nancy, A friend is looking for a old time recipe for Chili Sauce. Grandma's recipe had in it, tomatoes, onions, etc. Went on cooked beef and etc.
Thanks, Boots in Va.


To Cheryl in North Olmsted, Ohio, here is a family recipe for Meat Loaf and it is very different. It comes from my Grandmother way back in the 1930s and the key ingredient is cinnamon. Try it, I think you will enjoy it. We always serve this with ketchup. Pat from SC

MOTHER’S MEAT LOAF
Different, but a family favorite!

1 lb. ground lean pork shoulder
1 lb. ground round steak or chuck
2 eggs
1 #303 can petite diced tomatoes
1/2 green pepper, diced
1 1/2 cups bread crumbs
1 1/2 cups milk (more or less)
2 cans sliced mushrooms (I use fresh sliced mushrooms)
dash cinnamon
salt and pepper

Combine all ingredients well. Bake in loaf pan for 1-1/2 hours at 350 degrees.

***Note*** This is a favorite of our family and the cinnamon gives this a special taste. Also it has very little tomato and is not the ordinary meat loaf that you think about. Try it, it's really different but tasty!

Hi Everyone!
I don’t normally do this but I feel that I have to. I work with some of the best Medical Students I have ever seen. One group of medical students volunteers their time to a great organization called Operation Smile. For those of you who have never heard of Operation Smile it is a group of volunteers that performs surgeries to correct childhood deformities of children of all ages. As a fund raiser last year they made a small cookbook to sell within the University, the sales went over so well that they decided to do another cookbook. This time the cookbook has 650 recipes!!! (All of them have been submitted from the medical students, faculty, staff, and some from me).

The cookbooks are being sold online within the hospital and some local bookstores. If anyone is interested we appreciate your support. The cookbooks can be purchased online at
www.smilescookbook.com
they are $20. With the holidays approaching what a great gift! Not to mention how many of you are cookbook collectors a great addition might I add, I have made several of the recipes as our med students have a great culinary side to them and they have all turned out great. On the website you can see some sample recipes and the complete index of recipes. I hope that some of you will consider purchasing the book so you can get some great recipes and help a child smile again!

Nancy thank you for your time I am sorry if this is too long of a message but I feel that our members would enjoy the cookbook and knowing that they can help someone out at the same time.

To Connie R Blaine, MN.
Here is a recipe that I sent in before. It is easy and very tasty.
Enjoy! Pat from, SC

Beth’s Egg Casserole
1 pkg. frozen shredded hash brown potatoes
2/3 C. melted butter
2 C. shredded pepper jack cheese
2 C. shredded sharp cheddar cheese
2 C. diced ham (*recipe says you could also use sausage - browned and drained)
8 eggs
2 C. milk
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. pepper

Thaw hash browns and fit (like a crust) into greased 9 x 13 pan. Brush with melted butter. Bake at 425 for 30 minutes. This may be done ahead of time.

Remove from oven. Add cheeses and then ham (or sausage). Beat eggs, milk, salt and pepper. Pour over crust. Return to oven. Reduce heat to 350 and bake for 45 min. - 1 hour until knife inserted in center comes out clean.

This can be assembled before and refrigerated ahead of time and then baked. Room temp is best before baking!

RE:
To Cheryl in Ohio. I was going to send in the breaded cauliflower just as soon as I finished yesterdays newsletter but you beat me to it. Thanks for giving me credit for the original recipe. Not sure where I got it. I prepared the cauliflower for a progressive dinner years ago and remember that they were a hit. Give them a try Barbara.
Lesleigh in PA

Comment
I tried the recipe as well. It was a winner. I used it for broccoli and zucchini chunks as well.
Nancy Rogers

You're very welcome Lesleigh. I feel it's the right thing to do, to give credit to the original submitter. You're so right about it being a hit. Nancy, I see you tried and liked them also. Great idea you had, Nancy, to use the same batter on other veggies.

Makes me want to make them right now. Hmm, maybe after we get back from our vacation.

Cheryl in North Olmsted, Ohio


Here's my TNT method of doing cauliflower or onion rings and even home made tenderloins. Everyone thinks I've went to a restaurant supply and bought them.

Fried Cauliflower TNT
1 head cauliflower
bowl of thin pancake batter
bowl of breading-half bread crumbs or cracker crumbs, half flour, salt, pepper as desired

Take the head cauliflower, break into small pieces and steam til just tender. I use the microwave. Dip a few pieces at a time into a thin pancake batter,using one hand & transfer to a bowl of breading mixture. Using the other hand, roll in mixture of breadcrumbs.

Place on cookie sheet and freeze. Package into a freezer bag. You can pull this out of freezer and deep fry at any time. I do onion rings & mushrooms the same way (don't precook-just the breading and freezing). I save any leftover breading mixture in the freezer. I also do tenderloins this way, but don't save the breading mixture.

Hi Nancy, this is Beverly from Bay City, Michigan, I would like some recipe's for RHUBARB, hubby came home the other day with a bag of rhubarb and my daughter gave me some from her garden, so I have all this rhubarb sitting around the kitchen and do not have any recipe's. I make Zucchini bread all the time but haven't found a recipe using rhubarb and zucchini together in bread, can you help me.
Thank you, Bev.


I see so many letters in the newsletters asking about how to do things on the PC. Most of them are basic PC capabilities; e.g., cut and paste (can you believe it? One of the ladies here thought that meant print the thing out then physically cut and paste it on another sheet of paper.), etc.

In a previous existence, I was a tech writer who specialized in writing clear user instructions for new users. Back in the good old days, every piece of software or hardware came with a user manual. Then came the ability to create Help files and gradually everyone began to put all the user information into those help files. But there's just one thing wrong with that approach: getting users to actually USE the Help files.

Seeing the letter this morning from someone who wanted to know how to cut and paste a selected part of the newsletter made me think that maybe what is needed in your archives of useful information would be a sort of
explanation of the Help file, and how to use it. I was down in the PC room here the other day helping one of the residents, and the thing she wanted was just a very basic PC operation. I showed her the Help file and how it use it.

What all this is leading up to is this: I'm going to put together a brief description of Help files, and how to use them to put down in our computer room. If/when I get it done, would you like to have a copy to put in your 'archives', and which you could refer Nancylanders to when they ask the inevitable question about how to select, cut, and paste?

I also wanted to tell you how sorry I was about your brother. It's bad enough to lose one's parents, but when one of your own generation goes, it's really tough. I think you handle adversity very well-- I'm not sure I could deal with some of the problems you've had as gracefully as you do.

Take care, and RELAX.

Hi Nancy and welcome home! I'd like to share two recipes with everyone that we created just last night. Someone had been asking about easy Mexican recipes and I made these two dishes of Easy Enchiladas which came out great.

Easy Beef Enchiladas
1 bag frozen Beef Taquitos wrapped in corn tortillas
1 large can of mild enchilada sauce or red chile sauce
1 cup chopped onions
1 1/2 to 2 cups of monterey jack or cheddar cheese
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Fill an aluminum pan with the taquitos in a single layer, filling in any spaces with pieced of taquitos if necessary. Sprinkle the onion over the taquitos then pour the enchilada sauce over the taquitos and sprinkle with cheese. Bake for 25 minutes or until cheese is melted and golden brown. Add optional toppings which are below.

Easy Chicken Enchiladas
1 bag frozen chicken taquitos in corn tortillas or chicken and cheese taquitos
1 large can of mild Green Chile enchilada sauce
1 cup chopped onions
1 1/2 to 2 cups Monterey jack or Mexican-blended cheese
The directions are the same as for the Beef Enchiladas recipe
The optional toppings are sour cream, chopped scallions or green onions and whole or chopped black olives.
This would be a great dish to take to a potluck or church event. You can make several pans of these at the same time without a mess to clean up. If you like more spice, you can use a medium sauce but the mild sauce is really good. You can add the olives before or after you bake it but save the sour cream and green onions for use just before serving. I buy the largest boxes of taquitos available and whatever doesn't fit in the pan goes right back into the freezer for another meal. I made both recipes and served it with a can of heated refried beans topped monterey jack cheese and tortilla chips on the side with a green salad with a bottled Caesar dressing.
No name was included with recipes


For Val in Ark, in response to printing recipes, one at a time this is how I do it. If you highlight the recipe by using the left button on your mouse, then right click the mouse it will pop up copy, paste, or print. Click on print, when the screen comes up click on options to print, click on selection, then print. You should now be printing only the recipe you highlighted. I hope I didn't confuse you, am not very good at explaining I'm afraid.
Good Luck, Gloria, Indiana

Hi...Since there has been a lot of interest lately in Ramen recipes, I thought that you all might like the following info. I was watching Mark Summers' show "Unwrapped" on the Food Channel last night and they did a segment on Ramen. Turns out that there is a cookbook called "101 Recipes
for Ramen" by Toni Patrick.
She even had dessert recipes using Ramen.

For Boots in VA: I have decorated cakes for years and have all sizes of pans. The average cake mix makes 5 to 5 1/2 cups of batter. The chart below should be a big help.

The following advice for pan swapping is from "In the Sweet Kitchen," by Regan Daley. An acceptable alternative to any pan has an identical volume and falls within half an inch of the original depth. The baking time may have to be decreased for shallower pans or extended for deeper ones.

Pan dimensions are in inches.

The following pans hold 4 cups:
8-by-1½ pie plate
8-by-1½ round cake pan
8-by-4-by-2½ loaf pan
9-by-1¼ pie plate
9½-by-1½ round fluted tart pan

I agree 100 percent with Linda from Grass Valley, You do such a wonderful job on this site, that you deserve all the praise and accolades that you get.

Some years ago I had the best garlic cheese bread ever. I remember that she took a loaf of sour dough hard crust Italian bread, sliced it almost all the way through and spread garlic butter on both sides, insert a slice of Swiss cheese between slices of bread , lay on a large sheet of foil and pour about 2 cups of white wine over it. (not sure what type she used) Wrap tight and bake in oven on cookie sheet. Now is the part I do not remember. What degree do you set the oven and how long do you bake it. If anyone has ever done bread this way, would appreciate information.
Thanks much, Romona in San Jose


Hi all! This is for Cheryl in North Olmsted, Ohio. The first time I had sauce with cinnamon was a a friends house . Her family was Greek and I thought it the most delicious stuff! That was over 25 years ago and not only had she influenced my choice of husbands (egad!), it truly turned me into an ethnic food gourmand. Thank you for the mention in the newsletter. It feels good to have my ideas validated and appreciated.

For an ethnic twist on meatballs, try adding grated potato, grated onion, salt, pepper, breadcrumbs and a dash of cinnamon to the meat mixture. Make into oblong shapes and pan fry.Serve with pasta tossed with butter and grated parmesan and a salad on the side.

Ok Nancy, here goes the recipe for "Sweet Potato Puff Rosettes" for the 3rd time. I hope you receive it this time.

This is a recipe I usually make at Thanksgiving. They are impressive because they are piped into a cookie tube and then I use a decorating tip to form the rosettes.

Sweet Potato Puff Rosettes
3 large (about 2 lbs.) sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1 inch pieces
1/4 cup butter or margarine, softened
2 tablespoons packed brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon grated orange peel
2 eggs beaten
1 tablespoon butter or margarine, melted
2 tablespoons chopped crystallized ginger, if desired.

1. Place sweet potatoes in 3 quart saucepan; add enough water to cover. Cover and heat to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer covered about 20 minutes or until tender; drain. Shake potatoes in saucepan over low heat to dry.
2. Heat oven to 425. Mash potatoes in medium bowl until no lumps remain. Add remaining ingredients except 1 tablespoon butter and ginger. Beat vigorously until potatoes are fluffy.
3. Fill cookie cake decorating tube with mixture. Use one of the decorating tips that will make a pretty rosette. You can make them as big or small as you like. I like to make a lot of little ones. They look so pretty when served.
4. Brush 1 tablespoon melted butter over potatoes. Bake about 15 minutes or until hot. Sprinkle with ginger.

I also want to say thanks to all who gave me the ingredients for the hand and body lotion. I made it and use it daily.

Camille, Commack-NY
