Chocolate Babka

Recipe By : Richard A. Ifft
Serving Size : 1 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Desserts

Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
——– ———— ——————————–
1 cup milk
5 tablespoons butter or margarine (+extra for greasing)
1/4 cup lukewarm water
1 pkg. active dry yeast
6 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon salt
5 cups (to 6 cups) unbleached flour
1 1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa
1/2 cup finely chopped walnuts or pecans

Place milk in a small saucepan and heat it just to the point where it
is ready to boil. Remove from heat, and add the butter or margarine,
and cool. (It can be cooled for 10 minutes in refrigerator.)

Generously grease the bottom, middle, and sides of a standard-sized
tube or bundt pan.

Place water in a large bowl and sprinkle in the yeast.

Add the milk mixture to the yeast when the milk mixture is definitely
cool to wrist temperature; then add sugar and salt.

Add flour, one cup at a time, mixing after each addition.

After all the flour is mixed in, knead for 5 to 10 minutes on a floured
surface. Add small amounts of flour, if necessary to keep the dough
from getting too sticky to handle.

Clean and grease the bowl. Add kneaded dough, and oil or butter the
top surface. Place it in a warm place to rise until doubled; this will
take approximately 2 hours.

Place chocolate chips in food processor with steel blade, or a blender,
and grind them until they resemble coarse meal. Transfer to a small
bowl and combine with the cocoa. Sprinkle 1/3 cup of this mixture into
bottom of the greased pan and then sprinkle in the chopped nuts.

When the dough has doubled in bulk, punch it down and then knead it for
5 to 10 minutes on the floured surface.

Roll the dough into a large oval with a rolling pin: 9-10 inches wide
at the middle, and 16-17 inches long.

Leaving a 1/2 inch rim around the outer edge, sprinkle the remaining
chocolate filling as evenly as possible over the dough. Roll it
tightly along the long edge, pinching the edges to seal them.
Carefully lift the babka and ease it into the pan, making as even a
circle as possible. Pat it firmly into place, and seal the two ends
together with a bit of water and a good pinch.

You can either let it rise at room temperature 45 minutes and then bake
it, or wrap airtight in a plastic bag and refrigerate (up to two days)
until you are ready to bake.

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Bake 45 to 50 minutes, or until it sounds
hollow when thumped.

Remove chocolate babka from the pan and invert onto a plate, so the
chocolate-nut coating ends up on top. Cool at least 30 minutes.

Title: Brenda’s Black Bean Soup
Categories: Soups, Ceideburg 2
Yield: 1 servings

3 c Dried black beans
2 Ham hocks
1 Bell pepper (chopped)
1 sm Onion (chopped)
1 Whole sour orange or
-tangerine
1 tb Vinegar (if you used a
-sweet orange or tangerine)
1 Stick oleo
2 tb Of flour
Salt and pepper to taste

Tried out the “White Trash Cookbook” last night and whipped up this
black bean soup. In spite of the fact that I forgot to finish it
with the browned flour and butter, it turned out pretty darn good, if
a tad bland. (I did cheat and use real butter instead of oleo.)
Here’s the recipe. Never having had black bean soup before, let alone
making it, I’m not sure what would be kosher to liven it up a bit.
Anyone have any tips? I served it with cornbread and a plate of
sliced homegrown tomatoes. BTW, the recipe is transcribed exactly as
it appears in the book to give a taste of Mickler’s writing style.
Pretty neat stuff, though I’m not sure if I’m ready for the cold
collard sandwich yet…

Put your beans in a soup pot and cover with water. Boil, take off
the fire and let sit til cool. Cook onions and bell peppers in 1/2
the oleo until limp. Add them and the ham hocks and orange to the
cooled beans; cover charitably with water. Simmer until beans is
soft (1 to 2 hours). Fish out the orange right now, before it gets
tore up. With the rest of the oleo, brown the flour in a black
frying pan, then stir it into the beans. Brenda says: “Make sure you
got a soup, now. If you need to add some more water, do it.”

RED LOBSTER’S CHEESY GARLIC ROLLS

Recipe By :
Serving Size : 6 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Breads Garlic

Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
——– ———— ——————————–
2 1/2 lb Baking mix (RL uses a
-specially made product, but
-Bisquick buttermilk baking
-mix is a decent substitute)
6 oz Grated mild cheddar cheese
21 oz Cold water

Mix together above ingredients (by hand, an electric
mixer will NOT work) until JUST combined –do not
overmix. Scoop with a 1 1/2 ounce scoop onto 2
parchment-lined baking sheets (20 per sheet), and bake
in a 450 convection oven for 4-5 minutes. Rotate the
sheets, and bake another 4-5 minutes. (Note, a
commercial convection oven cooks about 25 percent
faster than a home oven — for the same results,
increase the baking time somewhat, but be careful not
to overbrown the rolls, they should be a light golden
brown). Remove rolls from the oven, and brush with
garlic butter mixture (again, RL uses a proprietary
product, but you can make a decent imitation by adding
garlic powder, NOT salt) to taste, plus some
dehydrated parsley flakes to liquid margarine. Do not
add too much butter to the rolls, or the garlic flavor
will overpower the cheese. For variations, increase
the cheese to 8 oz. (better, and the way the Lobster
used to do it), or substitute about 5 oz. shredded
Parmesan (NOT the dried stuff that comes in a can) for
the cheddar. The Parmesan variation is excellent.
IMHO, better than the original. As a breakfast bread
(or snack for the cook), you may also add 4-5 slices
of crisp cooked bacon to this. In this case, brush
with regular liquid margarine instead of garlic butter.
