Please share your fave recipes using lemon grass
Comments (5)I used to have it in my yard, and it grew well in Venice, but I have not tried growing it here in Westchester (L.A.), although I probably should. It is easily available in markets, and so I can always buy it when I need it, but I also have it in a tube from Gourmet Gardens, which makes it easier to use, since it is tough, and I generally remove it before serving, especially if I use it in soups. I make Tom Yum soup frequently, as I have a Kaffir lime tree, and I keep galangal root in the freezer, although I have pieces of dried galangal as well for that recipe. Lemon grass is good in a cold Thai beef salad, but I only get this in restaurants, as I do not book beef at home. I do use it when I make my own Thai curry paste, but then you can buy Thai curry paste easily enough now. My favorite Thai soup is made with shrimp and mushrooms, but I cannot find where I saved the recipe. I know I posted it here at one time. It is similar to this. Most of the time when I use it, I just add it to a Pad Thai recipe, or a Thai or Japanese soup....See MorePunch Recipe Please !
Comments (22)At Thanksgiving and Christmas, if the weather is cool, I like to make mulled cider. Into a large pot, pour 1/2 gallon of apple cider (which has a more pronounced flavor than apple juice, so that is why I prefer cider). Add 4 sticks of cinnamon bark and a thoroughly washed orange that is studded with at least 18 whole cloves. Simmer on low heat, do not boil, about an hour. Taste it to see if you can taste the spices; if so, it is ready to serve. If it has not picked up the spice flavors, give it another half hour. You can serve this in mugs as is, or pour a tablespoon or two of brandy or rum into the cup before pouring in the mulled cider. It really makes the house smell like a special holiday for sure. The weatherman is predicting 88 degrees for our Thanksgiving this year, so I will save the cider for Christmas when it ought to be cooler. PS After another hour, if the cider is still on the simmer, remove the cinnamon, cloves and orange to prevent them from turning the cider bitter....See MorePlease share your favorite Christmas cookie/holiday recipes !
Comments (90)justwantapool-I make the peanut butter cookies with the Hershey kisses. It's the only one I cheat on and use the Betty Crocker cookie mix for. I find the full size kisses too large for the cookies so last year I used the Brach's chocolate stars. I think they're just the right size and the star shape is pretty on the cookie as well. I noticed this year that Ghirardelli also makes a drop that they say is specifically for that type of cookie. They call them Thumbprint Drops. Miss lindsey-I make the raspberry thumbprints as well but this year, I got a fig orange jam to try in mine. I love figs in cookies so I thought I would give it a try....See MorePlease share your Dijon, no mayo, potato salad recipe
Comments (1)Potato Salad Serves 4-6 1.5 lbs Yukon gold potatoes Kosher salt 1/4 c EVOO 1/3 c cider vinegar 1 tsp each sugar & Dijon 1/2 c firmly packed flat leaf parsley, finely chopped 1 bunch (5-6) green onions, white & tender green parts only, sliced Place potatoes in a large saucepan, add water to cover. Bring to a boil over high heat; add 1 tsp salt. Reduce heat to med; cook 20-30 minutes until tender. Drain; cool slightly. Pat dry; transfer to a large bowl. Whisk together EVOO, next 3 ingredients, 2 Tb water, and 1 tsp salt in a small bowl until well blended and smooth. Adjust seasoning. Stir in 1/2 of parsley and 1/2 of onions. Dice or lightly mash potatoes into small pieces. Toss gently with olive oil mixture. Adjust seasonings. Garnish with remaining parsley and onion. I seve this warm but my husbnd eats it cold as leftovers. It’s quite adaptable, I’ve used other kinds of potatoes, and added other green herbs. I think its too much dressing and cut back on that but you should make it as written the first time and adjust from there, obviously. The recipe is from Max & Eli Sussman’s cookbook, The Best Cookbook Ever, but my Mum found the recipe in a People magazine....See More
