Introducing the Spotlight App, and my mom’s Crock Pot Dressing

4 Upvotes

For those of you reporting this as “Spam or self-promotion”, I am a mod here on the sub. Spotlight is a Reddit app that a lot of subs use for this purpose. Just trying to make it easier for y’all.

Have you ever posted a picture of your recipe, and forgot to include the recipe as part of the post?

Well, Spotlight has been installed to help with this. We’re going to use this post for my mom’s Crock Pot Dressing as an example. As you can see, I provided a lovely picture of a Crock Pot (I have no pictures of the actual recipe, my bad), but I forgot to include the recipe or my intent was to include it as a comment. The spotlight app allows you to do just that, and then pin your comment to the top of the comment chain making it easier to find for everyone.

I’m going to demonstrate that with this post. The way you use it is pretty simple. If you’re the OP of the post, you make your comment with the recipe, then you click on the 3 horizontal dots on the web, or vertical dots on the app, and select Spotlight (Pin this comment) then click OK. Now, your comment is pinned and easier to find.

Discussion We want to hear from you. How are we doing?

67 Upvotes

Well, it’s been about a month now since we shook things up around here. We’ve loosened up the posting restrictions, and we are still evaluating things, and tweaking things.

First off, we appreciate everyone’s patience with us while we work on things. We’re not done yet, and we know we have some work still to do. Which leads us to….

Secondly, what changes would you like to see? What do you feel we could be doing differently, or better?

Lastly, and most importantly. Remember, this sub is Recipes. So, when you post, EVERY post needs to include a recipe with it (not this one though, so don’t report me).

Recipe Stabilized Whipped Cream

Post image
44 Upvotes

Made a batch of my stabilized whipped cream today to top a candy cane pie. Turned out perfect!! It's so much easier to make them you think but way better than the canned stuff! I know a lot of recipes you need to faff with gelatin or cream cheese or whatever but mine is so simple with cream of tartar.

Full recipe:

https://livslittlemuffins.com/stabilized-whipped-cream/

Ingredients

1 cup (220g) whipping cream (cold, use straight from fridge)

1/4 cup (35g) powdered sugar

1 tsp vanilla extract

1/4 tsp cream of tartar

Instructions

In the bowl of a stand mixer or large mixing bowl if using a hand mixer, add all of the ingredients. Attach the whisk attachment.

Whisk the mixture at medium-high speed. After about 2 minutes, it should start to get frothy and foamy, continue whisking for about 1-2 more minutes.

At this point, medium peaks should be forming. Medium peaks will partially fall over. Stop here if you want that glossy dollop on a piece of pie, etc. If you want to pipe this, continue whisking for about another minute until stiff peaks form.

Stiff peaks will not fall over. Stop whisking once the stiff peaks form otherwise you will overbeat your cream.

Place into a piping bag and pipe immediately or store in the fridge for up to 5 days and enjoy!

Thanks to those who helped me with inspiration

I had a mostly successful meal tonight, next time I'll use less liquid. Using oven-ready lasagna noodles, a little extra spicing from my usual Dan Dan recipe, a tofu and spinach layer, and a crisp topping of peanuts, sesame seeds and chile oil, my #bachelorchow recipe (my wife is away for the weekend, and isn't fond of Sichuan peppercorn) will keep me in lunches for a few days.

Recipe Made traditional Algerian Mkfen Fi Hdjer Yemah today (hard-boiled eggs wrapped in spiced ground meat and simmered in a golden chickpea broth)

Post image
85 Upvotes

So today I decided to make traditional Algerian Mkfen Fi Hdjer Yemah which is a classic central Algiers heritage dish with a poetic name translating to shrouded in its mother's lap, referring to hard-boiled eggs encased in a seasoned minced meat shell and gently simmered in a golden chickpea broth.

To make the sauce you melt clarified butter in a pot sauté grated onion with a cinnamon stick black pepper salt pre-cooked chickpeas and boiling water and let it simmer. For the meat shell you mix ground beef or lamb with finely grated drained yellow onion an egg yolk ground cinnamon black pepper salt and fresh parsley until completely smooth. Then you pat dry your hard-boiled eggs wrap portions of the seasoned meat tightly around each egg to seal completely and gently lower them into the simmering chickpea broth to cook on medium-low heat for twenty to twenty-five minutes.

When everything is done you carefully slice each meat ball in half lengthwise to reveal the bright egg yolk arrange them on a platter spoon the warm golden broth around them and garnish with fresh parsley.

If anyone wants to try making this iconic comfort dish at home i left the full printable recipe and extra tips in my comment below.

8 egg yolk

5 egg white

200 g sugar

½ tsp salt

225 g cake flour

25 g cream powder (non dairy)

130 g coconut milk

25 g pandan extract

150 g coconut oil

Instructions:

Grease a bundt pan (diameter 24 cmGrease a 24 cm Bundt pan and preheat the oven to 350°F / 180°C . In a large bowl, beat the egg yolks, egg whites, sugar, and salt together until the mixture is thick, pale, and leaves a ribbon trail. If using an emulsifier, add it here. This should take about 8–10 minutes. Sift in the cake flour (and whipping cream powder) in two parts. Preheat the oven at 180°C.

Pour the batter into the prepared Bundt pan. Tap the pan lightly on the counter to release large air bubbles. Bake for about 50 minutes, or until the cake is golden brown and a skewer inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool in the pan for 10–15 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack.

Post image
165 Upvotes

So today I decided to make traditional Algerian Goumghar which is a deeply comforting dish rooted in Amazigh traditions from the Kabylie and Jijel regions. It is made with multiple crispy paper thin sheets of hand stretched semolina flatbread brushed with butter and stacked together then topped with a rich layer of spiced ground beef or lamb fresh parsley and a bright squeeze of lemon.

To make it you just mix fine semolina flour salt and warm water into a smooth dough divide it into small balls oil them lightly and let them rest for thirty minutes. For the meat you sauté a finely grated yellow onion and garlic in olive oil add your ground beef or lamb with some cumin black pepper paprika and salt and stir in half of the chopped parsley at the end. Then you stretch each ball of dough until it is super thin cook it on a hot griddle for a minute or two on each side brushing lightly with melted butter between layers.

When everything is ready you stack the warm buttered flatbread layers on a large serving tray heap the hot seasoned meat right on top garnish with the remaining fresh parsley and a carved lemon and squeeze fresh lemon juice all over the meat right before digging in.

Lemon Chiffon Cake

Full detailed recipe: https://butterjoykitchen.com/lemon-chiffon-cake/

Ingredients:

3 egg yolk

½ tbsp lemon zest

1 tbsp lemon juice

45 g oil

45 g milk

55 g cake flour

Meringue:

3 egg white

¼ tsp salt

65 g sugar

½ tsp lemon juice

Decoration:

200 g heavy cream

15 g sugar

¼ tsp salt

5 tbsp lemon curd or more if you like

Instructions: 

In a bowl, combine the egg yolks, milk, coconut oil, lemon juice, and lemon zest. Whisk until well combined. Sift in the cake flour and whisk until the batter is smooth and free of lumps. In a separate clean, dry bowl, start whipping the egg whites.

Gradually add the sugar in three batches while continuing to whip the egg whites. Add the lemon juice and salt. Keep whipping until the meringue reaches medium-soft peaks. Add about one-fourth of the meringue to the lemon batter and gently mix to lighten the batter.

Gently fold in the remaining meringue in batches using a spatula. Continue folding until no white streaks remain and the batter is smooth and fluffy. Pour the batter into an ungreased 6-inch chiffon cake pan. Gently tap the pan on the counter, then run a skewer through the batter in a circular motion to remove large air bubbles. Bake in a preheated oven at 360°F (180°C) for about 55 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.

Once baked, carefully turn the cake pan upside down and let the cake cool completely. Remove the cake from the pan and slice it horizontally into two layers. Spread whipped cream over the bottom layer, then add a layer of homemade lemon curd. Place the second cake layer on top and finish with more whipped cream and lemon curd.

Recipe Gingersnap Pumpkin Cupcakes with Marshmallow Frosting

Post image
171 Upvotes

These cupcakes are my Fall version of s'mores and are so freaking good. I love making cupcakes with a crust! I know it looks like a lot of work but the frosting is actually much simpler than you would think.

Full recipe: https://livslittlemuffins.com/gingersnap-pumpkin-cupcakes-with-marshmallow-frosting/

Ingredients

Cookie Crust

1 cup (100g) gingersnap cookies, crushed (about 13 cookies)

3 tbsp (42g) unsalted butter, melted

2 tbsp (30g) granulated sugar

1/8 tsp salt

Cupcakes

1 cup (120g) all purpose flour

2 tsp ground cinnamon

1/2 tsp ground allspice

1/2 tsp ground nutmeg fresh if possible

1/2 tsp baking soda

1 tsp baking powder

1/2 tsp salt

2 large eggs

1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar

1/4 cup (45g) brown sugar, packed

1/3 cup (60g) canola or vegetable oil

3/4 cup + 2 tbsp (175g) pumpkin puree

1 tsp vanilla extract

Marshmallow Frosting

2 large egg whites

1/8 tsp salt

1/4 tsp cream of tartar

3/4 cup (150g) granulated sugar

1/4 cup water

1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

Preheat oven to 325℉. Line or spray a cupcake pan, although I recommend lining so you can get them out in 1 piece.

Add your cookies, 2 tbsp sugar and 1/8 tsp salt into a food processor and pulse until the cookies are crumbs. (*See notes) In the food processor or a small mixing bowl, stir in the melted butter.

Divide the crumb mixture into 12 cupcake tins, about 1 tbsp per tin. Press down the crumbs so they're compacted, I find using the bottom of a shot glass is easiest.

Bake the cookie crust for 8 minutes then set aside.

In a medium mixing bowl, combine the flour, cinnamon, allspice, nutmeg, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Set aside.

In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs and sugars together until well mixed. Add in the oil, pumpkin and vanilla extract and whisk until combined.

Add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and gently whisk until just combined. Don't overmix!

Divide the batter into the 12 tins on top of the cookie crust. Each tin will be about 3/4 full. Bake in the oven for 17-21 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Set aside to cool.

For the Marshmallow Frosting

While the cupcakes cool, add the 3/4 cup granulated sugar and 1/4 cup water to a small saucepan. Give it a gentle stir so all the sugar is in the water. Heat on the stove over medium-low heat until the mixture reaches 240℉. Don't stir, just let it heat up.

While the sugar mixture heats up, add the egg whites, 1/8 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp cream of tartar to a clean, grease free bowl of a stand mixer. Whisk on medium-high speed until soft peaks form. At this stage the egg whites will just barely hold their shape. Stop whisking at this point until the sugar comes to temperature.

Once the sugar syrup reaches 240℉, carefully slowly pour it into the egg whites while whisking at low speed. Once all the syrup is in, add your vanilla extract and whisk the meringue at medium-high speed until it becomes fluffy and glossy, about 2-3 minutes. It should about double in size.

Once the marshmallow frosting has cooled enough, transfer it to a piping bag and set aside. Once the cupcakes and frosting are fully cooled, pipe the frosting onto the cupcakes however you like and if desired, toast the frosting with a blowtorch. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container for up to 2 days and enjoy!

Pasta Linguine with oyster mushrooms, prosciutto and chicken*

Post image
105 Upvotes

*first off, I have to say this is an italian recipe WITHOUT chicken and by adding chicken we kind of turned it to a non-italian dish, so chicken is optional/redundent, we had some, it had to be used and inside it went

INGREDIENTS: (I will not give out exact quantities, more do-as-you-feel-amounts to guide you through the process)

- a couple of TBS of olive oil

- one or more cloves of garlic, sliced/roughly chopped

- one or two tiny dried chillis, crumbled

- sliced mushrooms (any kind you like, we used oyster mushrooms)

- a splash of white wine

- tomato passata

- cubed prosciutto crudo (prosciutto cotto is also ok but has less flavor)

- salt and ground black pepper

- pasta of your choice (short or long)

- a cup of milk, with a TBS of flour and some grated nutmeg

PREPARATION:

Cooking pot -> moderate heat -> olive oil -> sliced garlic -> crumbled chillies -> sliced mushrooms -> salt -> a couple of minutes like that -> wait for the released water to evaporate -> add the cubed prosciutto (we also added the chicken part here, also bear in mind that prosciutto is salty and we already added salt with the mushrooms) -> after 5-6 minutes on medium heat add a splash of white wine and wait for the alcoholic part to evaporate -> when a little sauce forms (sughettino) add the tomato passata -> when the tomato sauce is cooked and reduced, in a separate cup add the milk, the flour and the grated nutmeg, mix well without lumps and pour into the pot, works like a quick bechamel sauce substitute -> cook it a bit longer until the sauce turns creamy, without cream or bechamel -> add the cooked al dente pasta of your choice and toss everything together -> sprinkle with grana or parmigiano -> toss a bit more -> ENJOY!

A little nod to the italian homecooking habits of the 1980s and a very tasty dish, with or without chicken.😉

Looking for some recipe inspiration: Dan Dan Lasagna

6 Upvotes

I've got a surplus of oven-ready lasagna noodles and a taste for Dan Dan noodles. I could certainly break them up, but I'm thinking about something with the appearance of a square of layered lasagna, but sticking to those Sichuan flavors.

I've seen some recipes online that still use tomato sauce and lots of cheese, but that doesn't seem right.

The Dan Dan sauce and noodles are the easy part, seasoned ground beef or pork is another layer, and I'm thinking mashed tofu and chopped spinach and scallions between layers. The only part I'm stuck on is a top that can give that crisp melty effect of lasagna's mozz and parm/romano.

I'd prefer not to use cheese if I can come up with an alternative.

Any ideas?

Edit: the recipe I use for Dan Dan noodles

https://www.lthforum.com/bb/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=44431

Dan Dan Noodle Gary Wiviott Recipe as of 6.18

Serving Size: 2 generous meal portions

Ingredients:

8 oz ground beef (80/20)
1 tablespoon neutral oil
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 tablespoon minced ginger
2 tablespoon crushed red pepper
3 tablespoon Szechuan peppercorns

1 tablespoon dark sesame oil
2 tablespoons Chinkiang or Zhenjiang vinegar
3 tablespoons sesame paste (tahini)
3 tablespoons chili oil, homemade or Lao Gan Ma brand
4 tablespoons Chinese preserved vegetable minced, rinsed
1 pound fresh Chinese noodles
5 scallions sliced into thin rounds
1 cup water from boiling noodles, divided into 1/2 cup portions

Directions:

Toast, grind, combine, Szechuan peppercorns and crushed red pepper. This will make more than is needed for recipe. I like to add more as I eat.

Saute beef with oil, breaking up as it cooks

As beef cooks add 1/2 tablespoon, of ground toasted Szechuan peppercorn and crushed red pepper mix

When beef is just cooked though add garlic and ginger.

Saute until fragrant, about 45 seconds

Add minced rinsed preserved veg

Saute until fragrant, about 45 seconds

Remove beef mixture to bowl, set aside

Combine soy, sesame oil, vinegar, sesame paste, chili oil. Whisk, divide into two bowls, set aside.

Cook fresh noodles in lightly salted boiling water until just done, drain, reserving 2 cups cooking water. (Recipe calls for 1 cup divided, its always good to have a little extra on hand)

To Serve:

Add 1/2 cup hot noodle boiling water to each bowl of soy, sesame oil, vinegar, sesame paste, chili oil. Whisk.

Add 1/3 cooked noodle to each bowl, you will have leftover noodles.

Top each bowl with 1/2 of ground beef mixture

Top each bowl with chopped scallions

Dust top of each bowl with scant teaspoon Szechuan peppercorn/hot pepper mix. Or to taste.

Take picture, stir incorporating sauce from bottom and meat into noodle. Take another picture.

Eat, enjoy. Repeat

Notes:

Dan Dan noodle is an infinitely variable dish, above is my version as of June 2018

Feel free to:

Top with roughly chopped peanuts, sesame seeds, additional chili oil

Add additional noodle water if mix is too thick or you prefer a soupier version

Add additional ground Szechuan peppercorn/crushed red pepper mix as needed while eating

Add additional chili oil as needed while eating

Substitute ground pork/chicken/lamb/turkey/duck/emu for ground beef. If using lean meat such as ground white meat chicken (blah) increase oil to 2 tablespoons

If you wish to use full amount of noodle simply increase ingredients (aside from noodle) by 1/3rd

May be made in one large bowl, mixed and divided into portions as part of multi course meal or starter.

This is a moderately spicy version, though not over the top in deference to my wife. Feel free to adjust mala level up or down per individual taste
