Food/Recipe Thread

[ChAiM'l]

With the male to female ratio on the forums currently at 4.9:1, this thread might not be very popular , but I'm hoping that the few (self-proclaimed?) foodies around here will chime in. Post here your favorite dishes and/or recipes, or ask other members for recipe ideas.

To start it off, does anyone have a good recipe for braised short ribs? (Please only post recipes that you've tried, or know that they're good. I know how to use Google .

8qt pot crockpot. 5lb Yukon Gold Potatoes. 2 Vidalia Onions. 1 roll of Kishka. 2lb Cheek Meat. 1lb Knee Bones. 1.5 teaspoon Salt.

Use 'S Blade' on your food processor on the  peeled potatoes & onions. Dump that into pot followed by everything else. Put it on Low Thursday 11pm. Mix it in the am. Eat some in the afternoon. Then watch it as you near Shabbos to see its status. Enjoy

No liquids at all? (eggs, water....)

Nope. Potatoes and Onions give off enough. Cheek meat is a salty meat. Some may not even add the salt.

Love this idea was thinking of starting one myself but didn't know how it would be received. here are a one of my favorite/unique  for shabbos. Hopefully I'll post more as I remember them. Crab Cakes:
2 packs of the fake crab, 3 sticks of celery, 1 red onion, 3 eggs, bread crumbs (whatever type you favor) a bit of dijon mustard, salt and black pepper to taste, a bit of mayo, grate it all in the processor and chill in refrigerator, the point is it needs to harden, then roll in panko crumbs and fry to your hearts delight. MUST SERVE with shrimp sauce.

What type of food interests you? My significant other is quite talented in the kitchen. We do mostly healthly-leaning stuff, but not too extreme (e.g. almost no frying, lots of fish), and I like sweet sauces. Here are a couple of my favorites:

Red Snapper with Spicy Soy Glaze on Sauteed Vegetables and Sweet Potatoes

"Cranberry Walnut Salmon on a Bed of Spinach" from the "Quick & Kosher" cookbook from Jamie Geller. Also, I've heard good things about her website: joyofkosher.com (this particular recipe is not posted there).

Cilantro-Lime Chicken with Avocado Salsa
(make sure not to overcook the chicken breasts like most of the world seems to do and/or use dark boneless chicken)

This is just a random video of epicmealtime on youtube. *disclaimer not for the faint of heart. Also not Kosher!

[ChAiM'l]

Huh!?

[U-no-me!]

The kosher scene has good kosher recipes and they also have reviews on restauraunts.

i think your trying to say red snapper is not kosher...

in case thats what your saying read below...

last time i check red snapper has fins and scales making it 100 percent kosher!!!

[mguy]

i think your trying to say red snapper is not kosher...

I think the poster was just expressing that it's outside his familiar chulent/shnitzel/herring regiment. But fear not... the red snapper can be substituted with gefilte fish and it's just as good

Broccoli Cream Soup
Ingredients
·   2 tablespoons Olive oil
·   1 onion, chopped
·   5 Cloves garlic chopped
·   ˝ cup of rice or 1 large baking potato
·   9 cups chicken broth or beef or vegetable stock or water 
·   8 cups broccoli florets about 3 pounds no main stem
·   use any fresh herbs that appeal to you
·   400-500 ml. light cream
·   Ground black pepper to taste
Directions
1.   Heat Olive oil in large sized stockpot, and sauté onion and garlic until tender. Add broccoli, broth and rice cover and bring to a boil then lower heat to simmer until broccoli is soft/tender.
2.   Let cool slightly. Pour the soup into a blender, filling the pitcher no more than halfway full. Hold down the lid of the blender with a folded kitchen towel, and carefully start the blender, using a few quick pulses to get the soup moving before leaving it on to puree. Puree in batches until smooth and pour into a clean pot. Alternately, you can use a stick blender and puree the soup right in the cooking pot. At this point can refrigerate for 2 days
3.   Return to pot reheat, season with salt and pepper over low-medium heat, add the cream and heat through, garnish with parsley leaves
4.   Can do above soup with carrots, cauliflower etc. Can substitute cream with yogurt or milk-just will not be as good
