misstree worships garlic
|
no, not how to cook blatherskites... at least not entirely... but minnesota_chris asked for this recipe, so here goes:
Debbie Potatoes (named after the mother of the tree, great for camping, and you can get other people to do all the chopping if you feed them)
slice a bunch of potatoes relatively thin (scalloped, if you will), and do the same with onions (so that they're the half-circles). on a rectangular piece of tin foil, put down a few chunks of butter, a layer of potatoes (a little overlap is okay) and a layer of onions, then cover with garlic to taste (fresh and lots is recommended), a bit of black pepper, and some dill (fresh is again recommended, but it matters little). and a bunch more butter. repeat this process for a second layer, then cover with another piece of tin foil, fold around the edges, and set on or above some middlin' coals (you can also do this in the oven). it takes a long time for the taters to cook, so be patient. you can test the potatoes with a fork, but once you poke it steam will escape, and be careful not to poke through the bottom or your butter will go as well.

i heard a variation on this recently where someone added sausage to a similar mix. haven't tried it yet, but it sounded damn good.

i would give ya my garlic_bread recipe, but that's the secret weapon i use to seduce skittish young boys (and skittish old boys), and most of it is shown and tasted rather than measured, even in ratio. but it is the garlic lover's absolute dream. often imitated, rarely replicated.

misstree constantly seeks to improve her garlic sk
|
hmm... might work, if the cheeze were shifted away from the parm family... what kind of bread? sourdough? maybe a bit of honey added? little easier on the garlic than my normal vamp killer?

not exactly a garlic recipe but maybe indirectly....
CHICKEN DIP
my mom invented this recipe and when people ask for guests to bring stuff to parties my mom brings this once and then 1) she always gets invited back for the next party 2) they always ask her to bring back 'that chicken thing' she made the first time :-) it started out with canned chicken (come to think of it she probably found the recipe on a can of chicken many years ago) but it is a million times better with real chicken.
1 chicken breast
1 package of cream cheese
a few green onions
garlic powder, onion powder, paprika
whatever other seasonings you like with chicken that you think would go well with cream cheese
crackers
chopped walnuts (optional)
cook the chicken. any method is okay but grilled chicken adds a pretty good flavor to the final product. but pan cooking is just as good in the end. if you add seasonings to the chicken as you cook it, it also makes the end result taste better. cut up the chicken and the green onions and blend into the cream cheese seasoning to taste with all seasonings except paprika. form into a ball, sprinkle top with paprika and if desired pat chopped walnuts onto top of ball. cover with plastic wrap and place in refrigerator until firm. serve with crackers. (sometimes i like to make it as a sandwich spread and put it on toast with cheese and lettuce and stuff....kind of like chicken salad. ) my mom is polish so all of her cooking is somewhat to taste and unmeasured. she's always adding stuff to recipes she finds so whatever you like is good for this. sometimes she uses this recipe in celery to make chicken stuffed celery instead of plain stuffed celery. you get the picture....you can do all kinds of stuff with it and it's tasty. but it's always the best to bring to a party cause it gets gobbled up and people love it.
VEGGIE PIZZA
package of pillsbury crescent rolls
package of cream cheese
package of dry ranch dressing
assorted vegetables
(peppers, carrots, broccoli, cauliflower, mushrooms etc.)
take the package of crescent rolls and press it out onto a sheet pan and bake according to package instructions. take package of cream cheese and package of dressing mix and mix together. when crescents are cool spread cream cheese onto them. cut vegetables into bite size pieces and sprinkle all over pizza. cut and serve. my brother-in-law will sit and eat a whole one of these at holidays if my sister doesn't yell at him first.
easy, good, crowd-pleasing recipes that i got from my mom. she's really low maintainence (sp?!) in the kitchen. we've never owned a food processor in my life.

one thing i almost forgot about the veggie pizza, before you bake the crescents gently press out all the little perforations in the dough so that it makes one solid crust or else the ends of each little square will curl up and it....well it won't be a sheet pizza.

Better Than Sex Cake ;-)
1 pkg. German Chocolate Cake Mix
1 Can Sweetened Condensed Milk
1 Jar Mrs.Richardson's Butterscotch or caramel topping
6 oz. Cool Whip
3 Heath candy bars
Make the cake according to directions on package.
While still warm, poke holes in top of the cake with a wooden spoon.
In a saucepan over low heat, combine sweetened condensed milk and caramel topping, stirring until smooth and blended. Slowly pour the warm topping mixture over the top of the warm cake, letting it sink into the holes; then sprinkle the crushed chocolate toffee bars liberally across the entire cake while still warm. (Hint: I crush my candy bars into small chunks as opposed to crumbs - I like to have pieces I can chew on!)
Spread top with thawed whipped topping. Crush candy bars and sprinkle over top of cake.

that sounds scrumptious, megan. *drool*
misstree: the sweetness is there to counteract the bite of the garlic, so don't cut back on it. they are there to dance or fight in your your mouth, however you wish to view it.
i have also used vanilla, orange, and other sweet flavorings, but the butternut vanilla just seemed to more subtly blend with the taste while it battled bitter.
as far as the cheese goes, i recommend kasseri cheese, but parmesan is fine.

since i'm here,
Chicken of DOOM! by da hubby.
breaded chicken breasts
pasta (elbows work great)
lots of italianish cheezes
pasghetti sauce
garlic. and more garlic. and more garlic.
this requires some pots and pans, and one of those glass or ceramic or whatnot baking dishes, a casserole dish kinda thing.
ahem. make the pasta, and make it al dente. run cool water over it to stop it from cooking. make the spaghetti sauce, and add tons of garlic. sautee the chicken breast with a bunch of garlic. we used to make this with the dried garlic chunks, and it worked out because they softened just enough and it gave some extra texture. slice the chicken thin, into bite-sized pieces eases the gorging later. layer things like so: little sauce, noodles, chicken, sauce, cheeze, noodles, sauce, chicken, sauce, cheeze, aw heck just layer them however you see fit. just remember to use lots of cheeze, lots of garlic, and keep it mixed up. you'll want to end with a layer of sauce and then cheeze, to seal in all the good stuff. bake until the top melts, and LET COOL before consuming.
any experiment feedback on this one (or theories) encouraged... it's faboo as all get out right now, a masterpiece of the hubby's abilities (and durn cheap), but i feel there should be something more... a texture missing...

Candied Meets
by me. This was invented as a easy real food alternative to microwave lunches.
1 package of little meets (technically named BEEF CUBES, i think. You use them in stew)
you want to lightly brown them in a small frying pan with a quarter inch of water and vegatable oil.
This is where it gets fun.
drain out the water and oil... you don't have to do a great job, just lose some of the juice. Add steak sauce... use your favorite one. keep it on hand to add as it begins to evaporate... sprinkle sugar over the mixture... this is still cooking over a low heat.
Add one or more or all of the following:
orange juice.
balsamic vingarette (salad dressing).
your favorite spice.
lemon juice.
honey.
pepper.
continue to add steak sauce and sugar as needed (you should use at least 2 table spoons of each) (at LEAST)
keep cooking over low heat until the sauce sort of congeals. it should have sort of a sweet spicy taste. But you can cook to your own taste.
makes a great hor devor (and yes I know it's spelled wrong) or a meal...
it's good.

1lb of beef
1 packet of beef bullion
1 onion
2 clove of garlic
those nice smelling green spices
a bit of paprika

brown the beef with the onion, garlic, and paprika
bring mix to boil in reduced mushroom soup, mix in those nice smelling green spices to taste
add some salt to open the taste buds
pour the mixture (should be creamy) into the pie shell
place pie shell top on pie shell, slitting the top to allow the heat to escape in two places in each quater of the pie
put tin foil around the edges of the crust
cook for 30 minutes
20 minutes through take the tin foil off
voila, a recipe passed down for generations (more or less) from my quebec side given to you, skites, for good eating
