here are the basics of making an excellent cheese fondue , the proper way (or at least the lindysez way)., use good cheese , i use half emmental swiss and gruyere, grate them up and toss them with some salt and a good amount of pepper. let them sit out at room temp so they melt better . cut your bread (good french bread, but not sourdough) into bite sized pieces making sure to have crust on each piece. let those sit out for a while too so they aren tsp too soft., cheese that you use , you are going to use 1 3/4 cups of a dry white wine, such as a fume blanc, a california sauv blanc (don tsp use a new zealand 1 as most are too grassy) or a pouilly-fume. when you are ready to make the fondue, rub the pot with a clove of garlic (we like garlic, so we leave the clove in, but you don tsp need to); then place over a medium heat and add the wine. when the wine comes to a simmer, start slowly adding the cheese, sprinkling in a handful at a time, allowing each addition to melt (my dad said you always have to stir in the same direction, in a figure 8 motion, it works. if you stir in a circle you will end up with a big glop of cheese in the middle of a pot of wine, the figure 8 is key); keep adding until you have a nice thick sauce, then add a splash of kirsch and a pinch of nutmeg. put over a burner to keep it bubbling, and stir often when you dip your bread., a lb of cheese is enough for 4 people; or more if you are serving other things. and the amounts are guesstimates. i almost always grate too much cheese, so only add as much as you need to get the right consistency ; when you dip a piece of bread into the fondue, you want a nice coating of cheese and for the bread to absorb the wine. that s what it s all about, cheese, wine and bread. so use the best you can of each ingredient. and any left over cheese makes for a mighty good ham and cheese omelet.

egg yolks, freshly-squeezed lemon juice, unsalted butter , cut into pieces, white wine, white vinegar, coarse salt and pepper to taste, toast english muffin slices under the broiler or in the oven for approximately 3 minutes or until golden brown. remove from broiler, spread with 1 tsp butter. in a large frying pan, cook ham or canadian bacon slices until lightly browned and place them on each english muffin half., if you can poach an egg read no further, use a pan that is at least 3-inches deep so there is enough water to cover the eggs and they do not stick to the bottom of the pan. note: to prevent sticking, grease the pan with a little oil before filling with water. add vinegar and salt to the poaching liquid; bring the poaching liquid to a boil and then reduce to a simmer before adding the eggs (bubbles should not break the surface). hint: when you poach eggs, adding a little vinegar and salt to the water will helps the egg to hold its shape. without it, the eggs will become skeins of protein tangling up in the water., break each egg onto a saucer or into small cups or bowls. slip eggs carefully into simmering water by lowering the lip of each egg-cup 1/2-inch below the surface of the water. let the eggs flow out. immediately cover with a lid and turn off the heat. set a timer for exactly three minutes for medium-firm yolks. adjust the time up or down for runnier or firmer yolks. cook 3 to 5 minutes, depending on firmness desired., water with slotted spoon. lift each perfectly poached egg from the with a slotted spoon, but hold it over the skillet briefly to let any clinging to the egg drain off. drain well before serving. top each english muffin half with 1 poached egg. spoon warm hollandaise sauce over eggs and garnished with a small parsley sprig or chopped chives.

honey (if you are using a that has crystallized, just melt it for a few seconds), maple syrup, canola oil, water, pure vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, salt, rolled oats, sesame seeds, sunflower seeds (optional), nuts, chopped (your choice ), shredded unsweetened coconut (i ve used sweetened in a pinch and it is quite good, but makes a much sweeter granola), raisins (i usually end up doubling the amount), dried cherries, chopped or 1/2 cup dried apricots (use any combination of dried fruit that you enjoy and as much of it as you like!) or 1/2 cup dried cranberries (use any combination of dried fruit that you enjoy and as much of it as you like!)

sugar, light corn syrup, water, salted cashews (pieces are fine, and cheaper!), butter, baking soda, you really should have a candy thermometer for this. otherwise, use a cup of ice cold water: when you drop some of the liquid into it and it becomes a spindly piece that cracks, that is the right stage (hardcrack) to stop and spread it out to cool., have ready a flat sheet pan (like an airbake cookie sheet so no lip is in the way) that is greased well, plus a flat spreader or long flat heat resistant spatula

lukewarm water (90of to 100of), dry yeast or two 0.6-oz packages fresh yeast, crumbled, all purpose flour (i use king arthur bread flour), extra-virgin olive oil, coarse sea salt, note: i have found that adding anywhere from 1-2 tsp. of salt (table salt works just fine) to the flour while making the dough works as good or better than the coarse salt on top. it depends on your taste. i would suggest adding 1 tsp. of salt to the flour and maybe lightly adding the coarse salt before baking. or forgo the coarse salt altogether and add 1.5 tsp of salt to the flour for the dough. bread does needs salt to have a good taste., note 2: drizzle with olive oil before baking., note 3: you can knead with a little olive oil to keep from adding more flour and prevent dryness., add herbs of your choice and/or a grated favorite cheese. i have used rosemary, oregano, basil, red pepper flakes, cracked black pepper, asiago, and parmesan in various combinations and it all worked out well.

directions here are for mixing the dough in a bread machine, but baking it in your oven. if you need different directions, just message me and i will send them to you. (am using my bread machine as kitchenaide is out of commission right now)., way i added more nutrition & flavor to this loaf was by soaking my grains overnight, then adding them to machine (original recipe does not call for added grains). using a 1 cup measuring cup, i filled it 3/4 of the way full with a mixture of brown rice flour, quinoa and barley flakes (looks like oatmeal)-i dumped that into a dish and added 1/2 cup of warm water, stirred it around, and let it sit (covered) overnight so that the grains could absorb the water. i ve been reading a lot about grain (and whole grain flour soaking) and so far, this seems to have served me well. you can use any combination of whole grains-this is just what i used. next day when i was ready to make bread, i did this, i set my machine on the dough (or manual) cycle and layered these ingredients in the bread machine in the following serving, warm water, molasses, sugar, kosher salt, lemon juice (bottled ok-it helps the yeast and helps crumb be less tender), oil, whole grain mix i created, rye flour, vital wheat gluten (flour), bread flour (i usually use just a speck over 2 & 1/2 cups), active dry yeast (yes, 6 tsp), also need, egg wash to brush on top (1 egg, beaten well with a pinch of salt and a tsp of water) & oat bran to sprinkle on top & make it pretty., once the ingredients are in , press start and let your machine run thru the dough cycle., once that s complete , remove dough divide it in half, shape it freeform (i just make a round loaf), place shaped loaves on parchment lined baking sheet. cover dough with plastic wrap and let it rise until almost double in size (about an hour in my kitchen). when dough nears the end of it s rising time, preheat the oven to 375o (i bake it at 365o, but i m a bit neurotic about bread)., once oven is heated , brush loaves with egg wash, dust them with oat bran, score/slash them about 1/4 deep and load them into oven., bake 375o for about 30-35 minutes until loaf sounds hollow when bottom is tapped (or for 38-40 minutes at 365o)., cool on wire rack .

flake pie crusts can be used for main course dishes or, by adding the optional sugar, for sweet fillings and tart shells. they contain the same ingredients as other pie crusts, but it s the way the shortening is incorporated into the flour that gives these crusts theirs name and characteristics., when you break a medium flake pie crust with your fingers, it separates into flakes rather than breaking clean. a crust that breaks clean is made with short flake pastry. to make a crust short, the ingredients are put together a little differently. short crusts are equally good and used just about as universally.

mile high lemon meringue secrets, lemon meringue pie may be an american classic , but it can be tricky to prepare. there s the crust with all its issues, then the tart filling and the meringue itself, which is all too prone to weeping. and that topping is never, ever as tall and fluffy as we would like. we wanted to figure out how to make a perfect lemon meringue pie with a sky-high topping. here s what we discovered, make the meringue with a hot sugar syrup (what the professionals call italian-style meringue). this ensures that the meringue is cooked through and stable enough to be piled high on top of the filling. the addition of a little cream of tartar to the egg whites while mixing also helps to stabilize the meringue.flavor the filling with both lemon zest and lemon juice for the brightest citrus flavor. remember to strain the filling to remove the zest, which would mar the otherwise silky smooth filling.use a rubber spatula to spread the meringue over the filled pie, making sure to stick the meringue to the edge of the pie crust to prevent the topping from shrinking. once all the meringue is on the pie, use the spatula to make the spikes and peaks of meringue., all-purpose flour , for dusting, brisee (pie dough) for 1 single 9 inch pie crust, egg, heavy cream, cornstarch, cake flour, salt, sugar, egg yolks, lightly beaten, fresh lemon juice, lemon rind, unsalted butter, cut into small pieces, egg whites, sugar, salt
