Just a tip to keep those moist cookies moist and soft. My mother (now
deceased) always placed a slice of bread in the bottom of the cookie
jar or whatever type container you are using. I have also placed a
bread slice in store bought cookies . Have a good day all.

Subject: Bitter greens
To: posts@chitterlings.com

My mother always par-boiled her greens if they were older. She knew
they would be bitter. Just clean and wash greens as you usually do.
Place in a saucepan and cover with water and let boil for about 5
minutes. Pour off the water and drain greens. Place in saucepan and
cook as usual with sugar and other seasonings you ordinarily use.
This will help prevent bitteness. Good
luck!

Uncle Dewey's Bar-B-Q Ribs
This was posted on the Chitterlings site by 'tjohns'

Ingredients:

4 racks of Baby Back Pork ribs (1 rack per person)
1 liter Coke
1 liter Pineapple juice
1 cup brown sugar
Bar-B-Q Sauce
2 large onions, chopped
2 cloves of garlic, chopped
1 bell pepper, chopped
1 small can tomato paste
2 tablespoons canola or corn oil
2 tablespoons Worchestershire sauce
1 large tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 cup Balsamic vinegar
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon white pepper
1/2 cup lemon juice

1. Boil ribs in mixture of Coke, pineapple juice, brown sugar. If ribs
are not submerged in liquid, add water. Boil 1 hour. (Don't throw out
the liquid!)

2. Grill ribs on Bar-B-Q for 5-10 minutes on each side.

3. To make sauce...sauté onions, garlic, bell pepper in oil for about
5 minutes. Then add tomato paste and about 3 cups of the liquid
remaining from boiling. Now add Worchestershire sauce, mustard,
vinegar and spices. Let boil down until thick like Bar-B-Q sauce. Add
lemon juice at the end. (Here's a little trick...if you like your
B-B-Q sauce a little sweeter, add more brown sugar here!)

4. Dip ribs in sauce, then put back on Bar-B-Q pit on LOW HEAT for
another 10-15 minutes. Don't let the sauce burn...

Triple Layer Devil's Food Cake
Posted By: lindah on the Chitterlings site

1 3/4 cups water
1 tablespoon instant espresso powder or instant coffee powder
1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
2 1/4 cups sifted all purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter room temperature
2 cups firmly packed dark brown sugar (~ 1 lb)
2 large eggs
2 large egg yolks

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly butter three 9-inch cake pans
with 1 3/4 inch high sides. Line pan bottoms with waxed paper rounds.
Butter paper. Bring water and coffee powder to boil in heavy small
saucepan. Remove from heat. Add cocoa and whisk until smooth. Cool
completely.

Sift flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt into medium bow. Using
electric mixer, beat butter in large bowl until fluffy. Add sugar in 4
additions, beating well after each addition and scraping down sides of
bowl occasionally. Add eggs and yolks 1 at a time, beating just to
blend after each addition. Using rubber spatula, mix dry ingredients
into butter mixture alternately with cocoa mixture, beginning and
ending with dry ingredients. Divide batter evenly among prepared pans.
Bake until toothpick inserted into center comes out clean, about 23
minutes. Cool cakes in pans on racks 10 minutes. Turn out onto racks.
Peel off waxed paper, cool completely. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead.
Return cakes to pans and cover tightly with foil. Let stand at room
temperature.)

Icing

--------------
12 ounces bittersweet (not unsweetened) or semisweet chocolate,
chopped
1 1/4 cups (2 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter
3 tablespoons light corn syrup
3 tablespoons framboise liqueur or Grand Marnier

Melt chocolate, butter and corn syrup in heavy medium saucepan over
low heat, stirring until smooth. Stir in framboise. Cool icing until
firm enough to spread, about 2 hours.


Run small sharp knife around cake pan sides to loosen. Cut cake into 2
layers using serrated knife. Place bottom cake layer on platter cut
side up. Spread 2/3 cup icing over. Cover with top cake layer cut side
down. Spread all but 1/2 cup icing over top and sides of cake.
Refrigerate cake until icing is set, about 1 hour. (Can be prepared
1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate cake and remaining icing
separately. Rewarm icing over low heat until just spreadable before
continuing with recipe.)

Italian Turnip Soup

This elegant soup has a flavor that sharpens the appetite in
unexpected ways; serve hot to 6 people as a first course, most
especially before pork.

Ingredients

2 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 pound turnips, peeled and cut into a 1/2-inch dice
6 cups vegetable or chicken stock
1/2 cup rice, arborio if you have it
salt and pepper

Garnish: minced parsley and 3/4 cup fresh grated Parmesan

Directions

Melt the butter and oil in a large saucepan and bring to a froth.
Toss in the turnips and saute until brown, about 5 or so minutes.
Pour in the broth, bring to a boil, reduce heat and cook, covered,
for about 10 minutes. Stir in the rice and cook, covered, over medium
heat for about 15 minutes. When ready to serve, stir in salt and
pepper to taste, then parsley and 1/4 cup Parmesan. Ladle into bowls
and pass the extra Parmesan separately.

vegetable mixture after it has simmered one hour. Add all other
ingredients except crab meat, crabs, shrimp and oysters and stir well.
Let come to a boil, turn heat down and simmer 2 to 3 hours, stirring
occasionally. You may simmer longer if you have time, the longer
this cooks, the better. Add the shrimp, crab (I break the fresh crab
in half and break off the claws) canned crab and oysters the last 15
minutes of cooking. Serve with a small amount of rice and then your
gumbo over the rice.

Subject: Chocolate Cake

This is in response to esavarese@webtv.nets request for a WONDERFUL
chocolate cake, which this one is!!!

1 pkg. plain yellow cake mix
1 pkg. (3.4 oz.) vanilla instant pudding mix
1-1/4 c. milk
1/2 c. veg. oil
3 lg. eggs
1 t. pure vanilla extract

Grease and flour 2 cake pans. Place a rack in the center of your oven
and preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

Place cake mix, pudding mix, milk, oil, eggs, and vanilla in a large
mixing bowl. Blend with elec. mixer on low speed for 1 min. Stop and
scrape down sides of bowl with rubber spatula. Increase mixer speed
to med. and beat 2 min. more, scraping down the sides again if needed.
The batter should look well combined. Divide the batter between the 2
cake pans, smoothing it out with the rubber spatula. Place the pans
in oven, side by side
Bake the cakes until they turn golden brown and spring back when
lightly pressed with your finger, 30 to 35 min. Remove the pans from
the oven and place them on wire racks to cool for 10 min. Run a dinner
knife around the edge of each layer and invert each onto a rack, then
invert again onto another rack so that the layers are right side up.
Allow to cool completely, 30 min. more.

Meanwhile, prepare the Chocolate Pan Frosting.

Place one cake layer, right side up, on a serving platter. Spread the
top with frosting. Place the second layer, right side up, on top of
the first layer and frost the top and sides of the cake with clean,
smooth strokes.

CHOCOLATE PAN FROSTING

12 Tb. (1-1/2 sticks) butter
1/2 c. unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 c. milk
5-1/2 c. confectioners' sugar, sifted

Melt the butter in a medium-size pan over low heat, 2 to 3 min. Stir
in the cocoa powder and milk. Cook another min., sitrring until the
mixture thickens and just begins to come to a boil. Remove the pan
from the heat. Stir in 5 cups of the confectioners's sugar, adding
more if needed, until the frosting is thickened and smooth and the
consistency of hot fudge sauce.
Ladle the warm frosting liberally over the top of cooled cake,
spreading it with a metal spatula so that it reaches the edges of
the cake. ; Spread the sides of the cake with more frosting,
smoothing it out with a long metal spatula as you go. It will harden
as it cools. Work quickly because this frosting goes on best while
still warm.

I realize this is a looooog one, but well worth the effort, I
promise!!
