ANNIE'S POTATO SOUP

From: HOST GFS DdH2

 

Potato Soup

from Annie

 

1 ham hock

Potatoes, about 4 med. sized

Potato Buds (Betty Crocker dehydrated potatoes)

2 c. milk

1 (16 oz) can whole kernel corn

 

Cook ham hock until meat falls off the bone. Remove cooked ham

hocks, strain broth into a bowl and refrigerate overnight if

possible.

 

Next day skim off the fat which rises to the top. Cook

the potatoes in this ham-hock stock. Potatoes should be cut into

cubes and cooked until soft but not mushy. Then add 2 cups milk to

the stock, followed by the Potato Buds until the soup thickens to

desired consistency.

 

Put the deboned, diced and (or) shredded ham bits into the stock along with 1

can whole kernel corn. Flavor as desired, adding salt, pepper, dehydrated

onions, parsley, etc.

 

Enjoy!!

Bean and Potato Salad

From: Host GFS DarlaJo

 

Bean and Potato Salad

from SpeedRoots

 

10 potatoes, sliced

2 lbs. fresh green beans

2 cloves garlic, minced

1/2 cup olive oil

1/3 cup red wine vinegar

1 Tbsp. dry mustard

1 tsp. Mrs. Dash or any other brand of mixed seasonings

2 eggs, hard boiled and sliced

1/2 cup black olives, sliced

Salt and fresh ground pepper to taste

Fresh parsley for garnish

 

Boil potatoes until just tender. Place green beans in boiling water and

blanch. Beans should be just crisp-tender and still crunchy. Place beans

immediately in cold water to stop cooking process. Drain beans and place in

large deep bowl with potatoes. Combine garlic, olive oil, red wine vinegar,

mustard and Mrs. Dash or your favorite brand of mixed seasonings together and

 

stir. Pour mixture over potatoes and beans and fold in eggs and black olives,

 

toss well. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and garnish with parsley.

 

The Skinny: I guess you could leave out the black olives and eggs but they

 

really do add to the flavor and presentation of this dish. Besides we now

hear from the experts that a couple of eggs now and then are not bad for you

and that olives have the good type of fat.

6 Cups peeled baking potatoes in 1" cubes

1-1/2 Cups cubed cooked ham

1 Can whole kernel sweet corn - (15 1/4 oz), drained

1/4 Cup chopped green bell pepper

2 Teaspoons instant minced onion

1 Can condensed Cheddar cheese soup - (10 3/4 Ounce )

1/2 Cup milk

2 Tablespoons all-purpose flour

 

In 3 1/2- to 4-quart crock pot slow cooker, combine potatoes, ham,

corn, bell pepper and onion; mix well. In small bowl, combine soup,

milk and flour; beat with wire whisk until smooth.

 

Pour soup mixture over potato mixture; stir gently to mix. Cover; cook on LOW

setting for 7 to 9 hours or until potatoes are tender.

 

Ingred. Info:

 

Potatoes cook more quickly when cut into small pieces; cubed potatoes will

cook faster than quartered potatoes. The 1-inch chunks of potato in

our recipe work well as they do not get too soft during the long

cooking time.

 

Ingred Sub: Leftover cooked roast beef or turkey can be used in place of the

ham. This recipe yields 6 servings.

Dilled Red Potato Salad

From: Host GFS DarlaJo

 

Dilled Red Potato Salad

from SpeedRoots

 

This yogurt-dressed salad is the perfect foil for the rich lamb burgers. We

like to make the dressing one day ahead to let the flavors meld and develop,

and then add the cooked potatoes to the dressing a few hours before serving.

For a more substantial dish, mound the dressed potatoes on a large serving

platter and surround them with quartered tomatoes and hard-boiled eggs, and

black olives.

 

1/3 cup yogurt, drained for 30 minutes through a cheesecloth-lined sieve

1/3 cup mayonnaise

1/2 teaspoon sugar

Salt and freshly ground black pepper

1 1/2 pounds small, new red potatoes, halved, and cooked until tender but not

mushy

1 small red onion, finely chopped

1 small red pepper, diced

2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill, plus extra for garnish

 

In a large bowl, combine the yogurt, mayonnaise, sugar, salt, and a generous

amount of freshly ground black pepper.Stir in the cooked potatoes, onion, red

pepper, parsley, and dill. Chill, covered, for 2 hours before serving.

Garnish with additional chopped dill and black pepper.

hand. Tastes good, too!

 

POTATO SOUP

 

1 medium onion, chopped

2 T.butter

10 potatoes, peeled and diced

1 sm. carrot grated (optional)

2/3 C.milk

1 1/2 T flour

4-6 slices American or Velveeta Cheese

1 tsp. parsley or celery flakes

6 C. water

2 slices bacon cooked and crumbled

Salt and pepper to taste

 

In large pot, saute onion in butter until clear. Add the 6 cups of water and

the diced potatoes. Add salt and pepper, celery or parley flakes and chopped

or grated carrot. Cook until potatoes are done and start to fall apart. Use

an electric mixer or potato masher to break up any large pieces, leaving some

potato pieces intact. Shake flour and milk together in jar or other

container and add to soup mixture. Break up cheese and bacon and add to

soup. Add more salt and pepper if needed.

 

Made this recipe up. Of course you can add your own variations. Any

From SpeedRoots

 

1 lb. potatoes (2 large)

GARLIC ROASTED COD WITH MASHED-POTATO CRUST

From: HOST GFS DdH2

 

Garlic Roasted Cod with Mashed-Potato Crust

from: Quick from Scratch

Serves 4

 

Bread crumbs, cornmeal, batters of all sorts-it's not surprising to find a

crust on a fish, but this one's a bit unusual. Buttery, creamy mashed

potatoes are spread on fillets, which are roasted and then broiled until the

topping is a tempting golden brown.

 

WINE RECOMMENDATION:

This comforting dish will find its ideal wine soul mate in just about any

chardonnay. Try a bottle from California or a more refined version-a Rully,

Montagny, or Mâcon-Villages,for example-from southern Burgundy in France.

 

2 pounds baking potatoes (about 4), peeled and cut into chunks

1 1/4 teaspoons salt

1/2 teaspoon fresh-ground black pepper

4 tablespoons butter, at room temperature

1/2 cup heavy cream, light cream, or milk

2 pounds cod fillets, cut to make 4 pieces

2 teaspoons cooking oil

4 cloves garlic, minced

 

Heat the oven to 450 degrees F. Put the potatoes in a medium saucepan of

salted water. Bring to a boil and continue boiling until tender, about 15

minutes.

 

Drain the potatoes and put them back into the saucepan along with 3/4

teaspoon of the salt and 1/4 teaspoon of the pepper. Mash the potatoes over

very low heat, gradually incorporating the butter and cream.

 

Rub the cod with the oil and sprinkle with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt

and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Put the cod in a large roasting pan, sprinkle the

fillets with the garlic, and then spread with the mashed potatoes. Roast

until the fish is nearly done, 8 to 10 minutes for 3/4-inch-thick fillets.

 

Heat the broiler. Broil the fish until the mashed potatoes have a golden

brown crust, about 2 minutes.

 

FISH ALTERNATIVES

Use other relatively thick, white-fleshed fillets in place of the cod. Good

choices include grouper, haddock, orange roughy, red snapper, and turbot.

GARLIC ROASTED POTATO SKINS

From: HOST GFS DdH2

 

Garlic Roasted Potato Skins

from VJE Recipe Weekly

 

3 lbs. russet (baking) potatoes (6 to 8 medium)

1 small head garlic (2 inches in diameter)

3/4 stick (6 tablespoons) unsalted butter, softened

1 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

 

Preheat oven to 350F. Prick each potato once or twice with a fork.

Cut off and discard top fourth of garlic head, then wrap garlic

tightly in foil. Bake garlic and potatoes on same rack in lower third

of oven until potatoes are tender, 50 minutes to 1 hour. Remove

potatoes from oven and cool on a metal rack 15 minutes. Continue to

bake garlic until tender, about 15 minutes more, then cool in foil on

rack.

 

While garlic cools, halve potatoes lengthwise, then quarter each

half (to form short wedges). Scoop out potato flesh (reserving it for

another use), leaving 1/4-inch-thick potato skins.

Increase oven temperature to 425F. Squeeze garlic into a small bowl,

discarding garlic skins, and mash to a paste with butter, salt, and

pepper using a fork. Divide garlic paste among potato skins (about

1/2 teaspoon each), spreading evenly, then roast skins in a large

shallow baking pan (1 inch deep) until golden and crisp, 20 to 25

minutes.

GARLIC SAUTEED ARTICHOKES

 

from John Donivan

Makes 4 servings

 

Prep Time: 15 Minutes

Cook Time: 30 Minutes

Ready in: 45 Minutes

 

" Artichokes are sauteed in garlic butter before steaming. A simple and

delicious way to use artichokes! "

 

Ingredients

 

2 large artichokes (about 1 pound each)

3 cloves garlic, chopped

2 tablespoons butter

 

Directions

 

1 Rinse artichokes under cold water, and use a sharp knife to cut the top 1/3

off of each one. Trim the stems to about 1 inch, and remove the smaller

leaves from around the base. Use scissors to remove any remaining leaf tips.

Cut each artichoke in half from the bottom to the top, then use a spoon to

scrape out the hairy choke. Rinse again to remove any residual hairs.

 

2 Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic, and

saute for about 1 minute to flavor the butter. Arrange artichoke halves

cut-side down in the skillet. Saute for about 5 or 10 minutes, or until

lightly browned. Reduce heat to low, and pour in about 1/4 cup of water,

cover, and let steam for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the artichokes are

tender. A fork should easily pierce the stem.

HEARTY POTATO BREAD

From: HOST GFS DdH2

 

Hearty Potato Bread

from Vittles Recipes

 

1 potato, peeled and diced

1 1/2 cups water

2 (.25 ounce) packages active dry yeast

6 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

3 tablespoons white sugar

2 tablespoons shortening

1 tablespoon salt

2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

 

In a medium saucepan cook potato cubes in water for about 12 minutes, or

until tender. Do not drain. Cool mixture to 110 degrees F (43 degrees C). Set

aside 1/2 cup of the cooking liquid. Mash potato and remaining liquid; if

necessary add warm water to make 2 cups potato mixture.

 

In a large mixing bowl, sprinkle yeast on reserved 1/2 cup potato water. Add

mashed potato mixture, 2 cups of the flour, sugar, shortening, and salt. Beat

with an electric mixer on low speed for 1/2 minute, scraping sides of bowl

constantly. Beat 3 minutes at high speed. Stir in as much of the remaining

flour as you can mix in by hand.

 

Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead in enough of the

remaining flour to make a moderately stiff dough. Knead for 6 to 8 minutes,

or until dough is smooth and elastic. Place in a lightly greased bowl; turn

once to grease surface. Cover. Let rise in warm place until doubled in bulk,

about 1 hour.

 

Punch down, and turn out onto a lightly floured surface. Divide dough in

half. Cover, and let rest for 10 minutes. Shape each half into a loaf. Place

in greased 8 x 4 x 2 inch loaf pans. Cover. Let rise until nearly double,

about 35 minutes. Before baking, brush tops with a little water and dust with

additional flour.

 

Bake at 375 degree F (190 degrees C) for 40 to 45 minutes. Cover with foil

for the last 15 minutes of baking to prevent over-browning. Remove from pan;

cool on wire rack.

Know-How Perfect Potato Salad

From: HOST GFS DdH2

 

Know-How Perfect Potato Salad

 

Warm weather brings picnics, barbecues, and potlucks, and none of

these important eating occasions would be complete without a big bowl of

potato salad! Your mother and your grandmother may have their famous recipes

for this summertime staple, but what makes a perfect potato salad is

different for everybody. Once you understand some of the basics regarding the

composition of this beloved side dish, you'll be ready to invent your own

soon-to-be-famous recipe!

Though there are as many different kinds of potato salad as there are people

who make them, most of these spud concoctions fit into one of two categories:

creamy, or vinegar-based. Creamy potato salad almost always has a

mayonnaise-based dressing, but it can also contain sour cream, yogurt, and

creamy-style salad dressings. Creamy potato salad is served cold. Most

vinegar-based potato salads (frequently called German-style potato salad) are

dressed

with a mixture of cider vinegar, vegetable oil, and sugar. This style of

salad is often served warm.

 

Spud Safety

You have probably been warned that mayonnaise-based potato salad can be

dangerous if you leave it out for too long. The rumor is most definitely

based on fact: homemade mayonnaise is made with raw eggs, and raw eggs are

prone to develop salmonella bacteria when left at room temperature. However,

commercially prepared (i.e., store-bought) mayonnaise is quite safe because

it is made with pasteurized eggs. What's more, commercial mayonnaise has

actually

been proven to KILL bacteria due to the salt and acidic ingredients such as

vinegar and lemon juice that it contains! Low-acid foods in the salad such as

potatoes, chicken, and ham are much more susceptible to bacterial growth than

the mayonnaise itself. All the same, it's important to practice safe handling

methods with potato salad as with all other foods. Hot foods should stay hot,

and cold foods should stay cold. If you're taking potato salad to

an outdoor event, we recommend that you keep the bowl on ice, and keep it out

of direct sun.

 

Pick a Potato

Don't overlook the most essential part of your potato salad: the potatoes

themselves! While Russets are still by far the most commonly used variety of

potato, consider mixing it up a little. There are several high-moisture

varieties with a texture that many people refer to as 'waxy'. Among these

varieties are Yellow Finns, Yukon Golds, and red potatoes. Their high

moisture means that they have a more pleasant texture when they are cold, and

their

waxier flesh holds up better to chopping and to tossing with dressing than

that of the drier, more mealy Russets. However, your salad will be

outstanding no matter which variety you choose, as long as you cook the

potatoes carefully.

 

If you wish to add a little extra color and texture to your salad, leave the

skins on the potatoes. Just be sure to scrub them thoroughly before you

begin; 'gritty' is one texture that nobody likes in their food! Once you've

either scrubbed or peeled your potatoes, cut them into bite-size chunks,

place them in a pot, and cover them with water. Bring them to a boil on the

stove, then generously salt the water. Reduce the heat if necessary to keep

the

pot at a gentle - not a violent - boil. Depending on your definition of

'bite-size' the potatoes will take between 8 and 15 minutes to cook. Check

them often by fishing a piece out and tasting it. As soon as they're tender

enough to bite through easily, drain them. Remember that the potatoes will

continue cooking a little bit even after they've been drained, so it's better

to err on the side of firm than to end up with a big bowl of moosh. If you're

making a hot potato salad to be served immediately, have your dressing ready

to mix with the potatoes right away. Otherwise, you should cool the potatoes

by spreading them out on a baking sheet in a single layer. Potatoes are at

their most absorbent when they're hot, so this is a good time to add some

seasonings: salt, pepper, dried herbs, and a sprinkle of your favorite

vinegar. When the potatoes are no longer steaming, transfer them to the

refrigerator to chill.

 

Now is the Time to Season

While your potatoes are busy chilling, you can mix the rest of the salad

ingredients together. You can make your potato salad as casual or as highbrow

as you'd like depending on what you add to it. Some people prefer the simple

route, with few additions, while others like as many treats and surprises as

they can possibly pack into one bowl and still leave room for the potatoes!

Whether you're making creamy or vinegary potato salad, some favorite

choices for seasoning the dressing are cider vinegar, lemon juice, pickle

juice, horseradish, paprika, hot pepper sauce, dried and fresh herbs, and any

variety of prepared mustard from plain yellow to stone-ground, Dijon-style to

extra spicy. Dill, chives, and parsley are especially good partners with

potato salad, but some other potato-friendly herbs are sage, tarragon, basil,

thyme, and rosemary.

 

Apart from herbs and spices, there are so many other delicious additions you

can make to potato salad, it will make your head spin! Just a few of the

possibilities to choose from a

 

Diced fresh or cured veggies and fruits, like tomatoes, cucumbers, apples,

bell peppers of any color, pickles, capers, chiles, peas, celery, red onions,

green onions, shallots, olives, fennel, pimentos, and artichoke hearts

Crumbled cheeses including Gorgonzola, blue cheese, smoked cheddar, or feta

Toasted nuts and seeds, especially sunflower seeds, almonds, walnuts, sesame

seeds, or pecans

Tidbits of cooked or cured meats like salami, ham, prosciutto, smoked salmon,

shrimp, chicken, or bacon

Any other ingredients that make your eyes light up, like hard-cooked eggs or

watercress

Once you've chosen all the ingredients that will create your ideal symphony

of flavor and texture, mix everything together well, and taste a little of

it. Need more salt? Vinegar? Spice? Adjust all the seasonings to the best of

your ability before you start tossing the dressing with the potatoes; the

less you need to stir those potatoes, the prettier your salad will look. When

adjusting the seasoning, though, keep two things in mind: first, the

potatoes are, of course, much blander than the dressing, so what tastes too

strong when you try a big spoonful of dressing may be just right once it's

mixed with the potatoes. Second, if you're making your potato salad several

hours, or even a day, in advance, the flavors will intensify and mingle with

each other, as well as soak into the potatoes. If you can manage it, we do

recommend making potato salad a day ahead to achieve optimum flavor. It may

take a little practice before you get the hang of mixing the perfect

dressing, but we've never met a potato salad we didn't like, so experiment

and have some fun!

POTATOE SOUP RECIPE WANTED

From: GFA Terry

 

Hi Lisa! Here's a couple of recipes I found from an "Old Fashioned Recipes"

chapter of a CD-ROM cookbook:

 

OLD FASHIONED POTATO SOUP (Version #1)

 

Ingredients :

5 slices bacon, chopped

1/2 c. thinly sliced celery, chopped

1/4 c. chopped onion

1/8 tsp. thyme

3 c. chopped raw potatoes

Salt & pepper to taste

1 c. milk, scalded

1 tbsp. flour

 

Preparation :

Fry bacon. Add celery and onion. Saute 5 minutes. Add thyme,

potatoes, salt, pepper and enough water to cover potatoes. Simmer

until potatoes are soft. Stir in hot milk and flour. Simmer 5

minutes. Can use left over mashed potatoes instead of raw ones.

 

----------------------------------

 

OLD FASHIONED POTATO SOUP (Version #2)

 

Ingredients :

8 potatoes

6 onions

2 tbsp. oil

8 slices bacon

2 eggs

1 qt. milk

Salt & pepper

 

Preparation :

Cook 8 potatoes until done and drain. Save 2 cups of broth.

Peel 6 medium onions and fry in 2 tablespoons of oil for 8 minutes

and drain. Fry 8 slices of bacon crisp and drain. Beat 2 eggs.

Mash potatoes and broth, then add 1 quart of milk. Put on medium

heat and add onion. Break up bacon and bring to a boil. Add eggs

(salt and pepper to taste).

 

I don't know if either recipe is what you need, but I hope it helps. I think

the quality of the bacon makes a big difference, too.

 

Good luck!
