Sesame-Crusted Salmon

From Food & Wine

Servings: 4

1/4 cup(s) soy sauce

2 tablespoon(s) dry sherry

1/2 cup(s) canned low-sodium chicken broth or homemade stock

1/2 teaspoon(s) sugar

1 1/2 teaspoon(s) grated fresh ginger

1 clove garlic, minced

2 tablespoon(s) plus 2 teaspoons cornstarch

3 tablespoon(s) water

1 egg white

2 pound(s) center-cut salmon fillet, cut into 4 pieces

1/4 cup(s) sesame seeds

1/4 cup(s) cooking oil

________________________________________

Directions

1. In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce, sherry, chicken broth, sugar, ginger and garlic. In another small bowl, stir together the 2 teaspoons cornstarch and the water.

2. Whisk together the egg white and the 2 tablespoons cornstarch. Brush the skinless side of the salmon with the egg-white mixture and then dip it into the sesame seeds to coat.

3. In a large non-stick frying pan, heat the oil over moderately high heat. Put the salmon in the pan, sesame-seed side down, and cook until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Turn and cook until just done, about 3 minutes longer for a 1-inch-thick fillet. Remove.

4. Pour any oil from the pan. Add the soy-sauce mixture. Simmer for 2 minutes, stirring. Whisk in the cornstarch-and-water mixture and cook, stirring, until thickened, about 1 minute longer. Serve the salmon with the sauce poured around it.

This is another recipe from the Best of Bridge series Canadian cookbooks. The potato casserole recipe I posted yesterday (tried and true) is one from there.

My aunt made this every year for Christmas morning.
Make it the nite before and pop it in the oven while you're opening the gifts. Loved it!

Christmas Morning Wife Saver

16 slices white bread, crusts removed
slices of canadian back bacon or ham
slices of sharp cheddar cheese
6 eggs
ÃÂ½ tsp. pepper
ÃÂ½-1 tsp. dry mustard
ÃÂ¼ cup minced onion
ÃÂ¼ cup finely chopped green pepper
1-2 tsp. worcestershire sauce
3 cups milk
dash tabasco
ÃÂ¼ lb. butter
special Ã¢ÂÂKÃ¢ÂÂ or crushed cornflakes

Put 8 pieces of bread in a 9x13 buttered glass baking dish. Add pieces to cover dish entirely. Cover bread with thinly sliced bacon. Top with slices of cheddar cheese. Cover with slices of bread.

In a bowl, beat eggs and pepper. Add mustard, onion, green pepper, worcestershire, milk and tabasco. Pour over bread, cover and refrigerate overnight.

In the morning, melt butter and pour over top. Cover with crushed special Ã¢ÂÂKÃ¢ÂÂ or cornflakes. Bake at 350 F uncovered, 1 hour. Let sit 10 minutes before serving.

Honey Wheat Sandwich Rolls

Ingredients:
1 1/4 cups warm milk
1 egg, beaten
2 tablespoons butter, (I use margarine)
softened
1/4 cup honey
3/4 teaspoon salt
2 3/4 cups bread flour
1 cup whole wheat flour
1 1/4 teaspoons bread
machine yeast
2 tablespoons butter,
melted
Directions:
1. Place ingredients in the pan of the bread machine in the order recommended by the manufacturer. Select dough cycle; press start.
2. When dough cycle has finished, turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and roll out 3/4 inch thick. Cut out rolls with a 3 to 4 inch diameter biscuit cutter. Place on lightly greased cookie sheets; cover and let rise until doubled, about 1 hour. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
3. Bake in preheated oven for 10 to 15 minutes. When rolls are finished baking, brush with melted butter.

I made these for our supper last evening and they are super good. Everyone loved them, so I am making up a double batch for our Thanksgiving dinner. Mine made twelve large rolls and I used a large cutter. You could use an empty can if you don't have a large cutter to cut these with. I did use a bit more honey and whole wheat flour in mine and I used Red Star Rapid Rising yeast. Today I plan on using just regular bulk yeast and see how they do as I have a lot of that on hand. Be sure and butter them well on the tops after baking for a really great taste. My son in law thinks they would be great, split, buttered and put on the grill for hamburgers. I think he is right.

Pumpkin Cinnamon Rolls With Cream Cheese Frosting Ingredients Roll Dough o 1/4 cup warm water ( not hot, about 110 degrees) o 1 (2 1/4 teaspoon) packages active dry yeast o 1/3 cup warm milk o 1 large eggs, beaten o 3/4 cup pumpkin puree, either fresh or 3/4 cup canned pumpkin o 1 tablespoon butter, melted o 2 cups approximately all-purpose flour o 1 1/4 cups whole wheat flour o 1/2 cup brown sugar o 1 teaspoon salt o 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon o 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger o 1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom Filling o 1/2 cup butter o 2/3 cup white sugar o 1/4 cup brown sugar o 2 teaspoons cinnamon o 1/2 teaspoon allspice o 1/2 teaspoon ginger o 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg o 1/8 teaspoon cloves Cream Cheese Frosting o 4 ounces cream cheese o 1/2 cup butter, softened o 1 teaspoon vanilla extract o 3/4 teaspoon lemon juice o 2 -3 cups powdered sugar Directions In a large bowl, stir yeast into water to soften. Add milk, eggs, pumpkin, butter, 2 cups flour, brown sugar, salt, cinnamon, ginger and cardamom to yeast mixture. Beat vigorously for 2 minutes. Gradually add remaining flour, a little at a time, until you have a dough stiff enough to knead. Turn dough out onto a floured surface. Knead, adding flour as necessary, until you have a smooth, elastic dough. Put dough into an oiled bowl. Turn once to coat entire ball of dough with oil. Cover with a towel and let rise until doubled, about 1 hour. Combine the white sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, allspice, ginger, nutmeg and cloves in a small bowl, set aside. Transfer the risen dough to a lightly greased work surface, and pat or roll it into a 16" x 12" rectangle. Spread softened butter over dough and then sprinkle with the sugar mixture. Roll the dough into a log the long way; it'll stretch to about 20" long as you roll. Using a very sharp knife, slice the log into 15 slices. In order to cut down on drag, it helps to rinse the blade in hot water, and wipe it off, between slices. Place slices in a greased 9x13 inch baking pan (or in two 8 or 9 inch round cake or pie pans). Cover with a towel and let rise until almost doubled, about 45 minutes. Bake in a preheated 375°F oven. Bake the rolls till they're brown around the edges and beginning to turn golden brown across the center, about 20-30 minutes. While rolls bake, prepare the cream cheese frosting. Add the cream cheese, butter, vanilla, and lemon juice to a small food processor. Blend until smooth and combined. Add the powdered sugar 1/2 cup at a time, blending in between, until well mixed and desired consistency is reached. (I used 2 cups powdered sugar). Frost warm rolls with the cream cheese frosting and serve immediately. For night before prep: Prepare the rolls up to the point where you roll and place in the pan. Then, cover in plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight. In the morning, remove the pan from the fridge and proceed with the instructions where you left off. Rising time may be slightly longer than noted in the recipe due to the dough being cold vs room temperature. This is a recipe I plan on making. Hope it is good. Sue

this is a great recipe for diabetics or those wanting to avoid sugar. You can not tell it is sugar free, I like it better than the real stuff.

Sugar free Pecan Pie

1 cup sugar free honey
1cup splenda
1tsp vanilla
1 9Ã¢ÂÂ deep dish pie shell
3 eggs
2 tbs butter
1 ÃÂ¼ cup pecans

Pre heat oven to 350
In a large bowl combine the honey, eggs, splenda, butter and vanilla until well blended.
Stir in pecans and pour into deep dish pie shell.
Bake for 50-55 minutes or until knife inserted in center comes out clean.
Let cool
Top with dab of cool whip light if desired.

We found the sugar free honey at walmart where the regular honey is. It really looks and tastes like real honey.
Honey Tree's Sugar Free Imitation Honey, 12 oz

That honey is great on lots of stuff.

These may go on gift trays for my neighbors this year. Need to try them first.

GINGERBREAD TRUFFLES (Singforyoursupper blog)

1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup molasses
1 egg
1 teaspoon ginger
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cup flour
1/2 cup boiling water

Mix together the butter and sugar,; add the egg and molassess, mixing well. In a separate bowl, combine the flour, spices, soda and salt, then add to wet mixture. Stir to combine, then add the boiling water and mix. Pour in a greased 9ÃÂ13 pan and bake at 350 degrees for 25-35 minutes or until springy. Let cool completely.

Coating:

1 package almond bark or white candy coating
1 8-oz. block cream cheese, at room temperature
nutmeg, for garnish
When cake is completely cooled, crumble into the bowl of a stand mixer (you could also use a hand mixer for this; even your hands!) and add in the cream cheese. Mix until the cake and cream cheese is totally combined. Roll out into walnut-sized balls and place on a sheet pan lined with wax paper. Chill for 1 hour.
Melt the almond bark in the microwave in 1 minute increments, stirring in between, until it is completely smooth. Dip the balls in one at a time (I use a toothpick for this) and coat with the almond bark. Set on a sheet of wax paper and sprinkle with nutmeg. Allow to harden completely. At this point you can serve immediately or freeze for later use.

I'm just about to make these bars. Recipe makes a lot but they freeze beautifully. Thought I'd make them instead of pecan pie.

Pecan Pie Bars

3 Cups A.P.flour
2 Cups sugar, divided
1/4 tsp. salt
1 Cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter + 3 Tbs.
5 eggs, lightly beaten
1 1/2 Cups light or dark corn syrup (I use half light half dark)
1 1/2 tsp. vanilla
3 C. chopped pecans

Preheat oven 350. Grease bottom and sides 12 X 18 pan and line with parchment paper. In large bowl, combine flour, 1/2 Cup sugar and 1/4 tsp. salt. With pastry blender, cut in 1 cup butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Press firmly and evenly in prepared pan. Bake 15 - 20 minutes. In large bowl mix together eggs, corn syrup, 1 1/2 C. sugar, 3 Tbs. melted butter and vanilla. Stir in pecans. Spread over hot crust. Bake 25 - 27 minutes or until set. Cool completely. Cut in bars.

This is a quick and easy recipe. The most difficult part aside from buying the ingredients, is chopping the pecans!

as I posted I usually get it at walmart, look at the link I provided it shows a bottle of it so you know what it looks like. I have found it at most grocery stores too with the regular honey, it looks just like real so you do have to look at the jar, but that is the brand I have found.

I'll share my recipe, if you'll share yours, November 21, 2010
