An Adopted

American Food

(A history behind

a recipe)

These black-eyed peas are seasoned three times, producing three quite different effects. First, cumin seeds are sautéed in oil with onion and garlic and left in the sauce to stew. Then cumin and mustard seeds are popped in hot oil and stirred the peas. At the very end, a kind of salsa of raw seasonings is added. If you make this dish a day ahead, prepare the raw seasonings shortly before serving.
Ingredients:

Peas: ¼ cup vegetable oil; 1 teaspoon cumin seed; 1 medium onion, finely chopped; 4 garlic cloves, finely chopped; 5 plum tomatoes (fresh or drained canned), peeled and chopped; 2 packages (10 ounces each) frozen black eyed peas, partially thawed; 1½ teaspoons salt; ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper; 1 teaspoon ground coriander.
Raw seasonings: 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice; 1 fresh green chili, finely chopped; 1 table-spoon finely chopped onion; 2 table-spoon finely chopped fresh coriander (cilantro); 1/8 tsp. salt.
Cooked seasonings: 3 table-spoon vegetable oil; ½ tsp. cumin seeds; ½ tsp. black mustard seeds; 3 dried red chilies; 1 garlic clove, finely chopped.
Makes 6 servings.
Directions:
To cook the peas: In a medium saucepan, heat the oil over moderately high heat. When hot, put in the cumin seeds. Ten seconds later, add the chopped onion and garlic and fry, stirring frequently, until the onion turns brown on the edges, about 3 minutes. Stir in the tomatoes and cook for 1 minute. Add the black-eyed peas, salt, cayenne, ground coriander and 2 cups of water. Stir well and bring to a boil. Cover partially, reduce the heat to low and cook until the peas are tender, about 40 minutes.
For the raw seasonings: Combine all the ingredients in a small bowl; set aside.
For the cooked seasonings: When the peas are tender, in small skillet heat oil over moderately high heat. Add the cumin and mustard seeds. As soon as the mustard seeds begin to pop, after a few seconds, stir in the dried chilies. Add the garlic and when it begins to brown, scrape the oil and seasonings into the black-eyed peas and stir to blend. (The recipe can be prepared to this point up to 1 day ahead. Let cool, then cover and refrigerate. Reheat before proceeding). Mix in the raw seasonings just before serving.

Ingredients:

4 garlic cloves, 1 1/2 cups (packed) fresh basil leaves, 1/4 cup pine nuts 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice, 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese (or use ready-made pesto to save time), 2 cups cream cheese, room temperature, 2/3 cups goat cheese or use ALL cream cheese, 1 1/3 cups drained oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes, 1/3 cup tomato paste, 3/4 cup butter, room temperature, nonstick vegetable oil spray.
Garnishes:

Fresh basil (or olives / tomatoes / parsley / pine nuts, etc.)
For Pesto: chop garlic in processor. Add basil, 1/4 cup pine nuts, oil and lemon juice. Process until well blended. Add 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese. Using on/off turns, process just until blended, then add 1/3 cup cream cheese and repeat. Transfer pesto to medium bowl. Coarsely chop tomatoes in processor. Add tomato paste and process until mixture is almost smooth. Add 1/3 cup cream cheese and blend well. Using electric mixer, beat 2 cups cream cheese and butter in large bowl until fluffy. Season with salt and white pepper. Spray 6-cup soufflé dish or other bowl with nonstick spray. Line with plastic wrap, extending plastic over sides. Spread 1/2 -3/4 cup cream cheese-butter mixture evenly over bottom of prepared dish. Top with half of tomato mixture, then 1/2 cup cream cheese-butter mixture, then half of pesto mixture. Repeat layering with 1/2 cup cream cheese-butter mixture, remaining tomato mixture, 1/2 cup cream cheese-butter mixture and remaining pesto. Top with remaining cream cheese-butter mixture. Cover and chill overnight. (Can be made 3 days ahead. Keep refrigerated.) It will likely be necessary to chill each layer 15-20 min separately as you assemble the torta or the layers will not look distinct and nice. Invert torta onto platter. Peel off plastic. Garnish with your choice. Serve with baguette slices or crackers. Makes 20 servings.

You can make this up to three days ahead; be sure to start
at least one day in advance. You can also prepare two at
once using a smaller dish because this freezes well.

Ingredients:

1/2 pound finely chopped pork or beef, 1/4 cup minced green onion, 1 tablespoon minced ginger, 1 tablespoon minced garlic, 4 black mushroom caps, soaked, drained, and finely diced, 1/4 cup finely diced water chestnuts, 1 tablespoon fish sauce, 1 egg, freshly ground pepper, to taste 16 lumpia wrappers (the type labeled egg-roll skins, or homemade) oil, for deep frying.

Sweet-and-Sour Sauce:

1/2 cup water or Basic Chicken Stock, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 3 tablespoons rice vinegar or cider vinegar, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, 2 tablespoons ketchup, dash liquid hot-pepper sauce, 1 teaspoon cornstarch dissolved in, 1 tablespoon water.

Directions:

Crisp fried Lumpia Shanghai, the Philippine version of egg rolls, are delicious dipped in either a sweet-and-sour sauce or a mixture of vinegar, garlic and fish sauce.

Sweet-and-Sour Sauce:

In a saucepan combine water, soy sauce, vinegar, sugar, ketchup and hot pepper sauce and bring to a boil Season to taste and simmer 5 minutes Stir in dissolved cornstarch; cook until lightly thickened and glossy. In a bowl, combine pork, green onion, ginger, garlic, mushrooms, water chestnuts and fish sauce and blend thoroughly. Beat egg lightly and add to pork mixture, reserving a teaspoon or so for sealing rolls. Season generously with pepper. Sauté a small piece of filling, taste and adjust seasoning. Spread about 2 Tbsp. filling diagonally across the middle of a wrapper. Roll and seal. Egg rolls may be rolled up to 1 hour ahead of frying. Heat oil in fryer to 350 F. Fry egg rolls a few at a time until golden brown; drain on paper towels. Serve immediately or keep warm in oven. Serve with Sweet-and-Sour Sauce. This recipe for Fried Egg Rolls serves / makes 8.

Ingredients:

2 cups presoaked*) Bob’s Red Mill Bulgar (available at Hy-Vee); 3 cups finely minced Parsley (about 2 large bunches – can use flat leaf Italian); ¼ cup finely chopped Mint (or 4 tsp. Dried Mint); 3 Scallions and tops (1/4 to ½ cup) finely minced; 2 medium Cucumbers, cut into ½” cubes; 2 Tomatoes, cut into ½” cubes; ¼ to ½ cup Celery, diced; ¼ tsp. Black Pepper; ¼ tsp. Ground Cumin; 3 Tbsp. Lemon Juice; 3 Tbsp. Oil (2 Tbsp. Safflower Oil and 1 Tbsp. Olive Oil); 1 tsp. to 1 Tbsp. Vinegar.
Optional: Feta cheese crumbles (or equivalent cheese type); 2 Tbsp. Green or black olives; ¼ to ½ cup cooked vegetables such as corn; ½ to 1 ½ cups cooked leftover meats; 1 to 1 ½ head Romaine Lettuce hearts.
In a large bowl: Gently MIX together all the ingredients with a wooden spoon, except for the lemon juice, oil and vinegar. Add the lemon juice and vinegar. TOSS and CHILL for minimum 1 hour (overnight is better).
Before serving, TOSS again with Oil. Serve separately, or in a mound with Romaine Lettuce leaves arranged like the spokes of a wheel. Sprinkle with the Feta cheese crumbles. Serves 6
*) To presoak Bulgar: place 1 cup Bulgar in bowl, pour 1 cup water over Bulgar, let stand for 30 to 45 minutes, yield 2 cups of presoaked Bulgar.
Notes:
I like strong seasoning, I double the Black Pepper, Cumin, Lemon Juice and Vinegar. The Middle East version would also double the Parsley and Oil. Bob’s Red Mill provides for a crunchier consistency as you do not boil it. Krusteaz ALA cracked wheat bulgar is another brand must be boiled, resulting in softer consistency.

Ingredients:

You can use any fruit, we used peaches.

1C flour (self rising), 1C sugar, 1C milk, 1/2 stick real butter or 1 stick Oleo, 2C fruit or more (about 6 large peaches peeled and cut). If you don't have self rising flour use 1 tsp of baking powder (I opted for the self rising flour). Heat oven to 350 deg. Mix together flour, sugar and milk, set aside. If using peaches peel slice and put in sauce pan. Fresh fruit will need to be mixed with sugar a small amount of water and cooked till the fruit is warm. Place butter in the pan and place in the oven till melted (not sizzling). Remove pan from oven and pour batter (flour, sugar and Milk mixture) into pan. Then place warm fruit into pan. Do not stir. Place pan in oven for about 35 min. or until brown on top.

Rich & Svetlana

Selby

Ingredients:

3 potatoes, 1 carrot (not too big), 1 onion (not too big), 1/2 cup cabbage, 1 tsp salt, 2 tbsn flour. Grate all vegetables in a small grater. Add the egg. Add the flour. Add the salt to taste. Mix together in a bowl very well. Put skillet on the stove (medium temp so that oil starts to burn) vegetable oil on so it graciously covers the bottom and sides of the skillet. Make patties with the dough and cook them like pancakes until they are brown like hash browns on both sides.

This is a very yummy recipe and makes for an excellent Saturday morning breakfast for two.
