1 TBLSP of poppy seeds--what to make--noodles?
Comments (8)I've never seen poppy seed noodles! I always put them in cole slaw dressing (or, really, broccoli slaw which I'm more likely to make). :) You could also just use them on top of a loaf of bread or some rolls, just scattered for pretty. You could make two rugalach. :) (I know of someone who does that. Just takes a spoon of flour, etc., and makes a couple at a time.) It's not long 'till Purim. You could just throw them in with some new for hamentaschen. A long time ago, I tried to make my own poppyseed spread and just ended up with polished poppyseeds. I made a coffee can yeast cake from Joy of Cooking and put them in that. It had almond extract too. The cake took on an almost greenish cast from the seeds, and it was too heavy, but it made the very best ever bread pudding, half and half with challah, and even better with hard sauce. I think that was more like 2.5 TBSP, though. :(...See MoreJust what is miso? Also how about the benefits of rice noodles?
Comments (6)MisoMaster chickpea does not have soy. Soy-free, gluten-free https://great-eastern-sun.com/stuff/miso-master-organic-kosher-soy-free-chickpea-miso- Do take note that the 16oz container is a few dozen servings. Very concentrated. Even after opening the fridge life is 6-12 months...depending on your consistent temp. I buy the 8oz and just mark the lid. I almost always have 2-3 varieties from dark to the white, using them for different things. I've never had one go bad, even well past that date. Also important to never let your miso 'cook'. For a simple MisoHappy soup, i scoop a small tsp, (your silverware tsp), and rest it into a small coffee/tea cup. Bring your kettle to a simmer, then let it rest a few minutes to cool down. Then pour over your miso and stir...then let it rest, stir again. Takes a few to soften the miso. -If i'm adding anything, like green onion, ginger i chop/mince that while waiting for the kettle. I also like some chopped fresh cilantro with the stems and a squeeze of lime. (a nice, what i call, 'me-so-happy' breakfast broth) -For a heartier lunch/brunch...i prep the miso the same way, in a small cup, but in a separate heat proof bowl or small saucepan, i pour boiling water from the kettle over some rice noodles and veggies cut very thin or thin slices. The noodles will soften and the veggies, like carrots, celery, etc will blanch. Pre-cooked slices of chicken or beef could also be added to that.(could be leftovers from the fridge)...then add the miso to that when the noodles are ready. (varies with different brands how long the noodles need to soak). -Both above simple soups can be prepped in the time it takes for a kettle to boil, : ) (my supper recipe is complicated and time consuming...) Tried to simplify it but it requires a bit of prep...basically a Vietnamese Pho.)...See MoreHow to make hand cut noodles?
Comments (9)I mix the dough in the FP, but hand roll and cut. The recipe I use is from a friend's mom. Link to Pictorial Homemade Pasta I watched a friends Italian Momma make her pasta one day. (She did it all by hand) I make it following her directions but I use the Food Processor to mix and knead. 1 egg for each cup of flour( plus an extra egg for every 3 cups of flour, ie. 3 cups flour = 4 eggs, 6 cups flour = 8 eggs. Salt 1 tablespoon of olive oil, per three cups of flour. TIP: I often find myself with egg yolks to use up. I sub 5 to 6 egg yolks for whole eggs in three cups of flour. Put the flour on a large board and make a well in the centre. Crack the eggs into the well and sprinkle with salt and oil . Use your fingertips to mix up the eggs and then start to incorporate the flour into the eggs. Eventually it will all come together. (add 1 to 2 tablespoons of water if necessary) Knead dough until smooth. Let sit covered for 15 or 20 minutes. Divide dough into smaller portions and run through a pasta rolling machine or roll out by hand. Let dry slightly and then cut into desire widths. Leave out to dry or use fresh. When dried she always stored it in a wax paper lined box, in a cool place. (note: I don't use a pasta machine, I roll the dough out by hand on a large floured board) You can also mix and knead this in the Cuisinart, which is what I do when I make it. My friends mom would make 12 and 15 egg pasta at a time and give it to all of her family members (and me, a would-be family member). After she cut the pasta she would lay the strands flat. She would have it spread out everywhere there was a flat surface and also hang it from a broomstick strung between two drawers. Once it was dry she would gather up the stiff pieces and put them in boxes. Because I don't make that much at a time, I just lay it all over my table and counter. NOTE: Depending on the flour and the eggs, sometimes you will need more eggs....See MoreDoes anyone make egg noodles ahead for Thanksgiving?
Comments (8)The dried packages?. For a holiday meal, if it is your family tradition, i might just prep my noodle/pasta pot the night before, all ready to go with water and colander insert, and cook that puppy first thing am. Easy while every other prep is happening. Fresh cooked, even cooked that morning and cooled, then re-heated...still a not much saving of time if it needs to be warm. I like to put noodles and grains in 1/2 pint containers in the freezer when i make stock, then cover the grain/noodles with the fresh stock, than freeze. Nice to have for an easy soup addition. (the noodles are slightly underdone as they will finish cooking later)...in the soups. Even if you slightly under-cook, then lay out on a sheet pan in the freezer, then package loosely, then freeze, you still need to re-heat somehow...in another pasta pot. But i don't know the dish. Seems a lot of work to freeze and might just be a lump clump and starch gummy. If just noodles that are a plain side to have with turkey and gravy, i vote for fresh boiled. Not a good do-ahead unless it is a casserole type thing with other creamy ingredients to bake easily with other baked dishes. (with peas and cream and onions and a bubbly cheese topping) If you make your egg noodles by hand like we do, they for sure can be partially dried, nested on a sheet pan and frozen. Too much work for the day of....See Moregrainlady_ks
