Пряник "Тульский" от crybell.

Текст автора фото мое.
источник http://www.povarenok.ru/recipes/show/24212/ (700x525, 96Kb)Рецепт необычный, попробуйте обязательно!!! По мнению моих близких, по вкусу этот пряник гораздо вкуснее аналогов из магазина :)))) Очень прост в приготовлении, безумно вкусный и долго остается нежным и мягким!
Ингредиенты :
Сахар — 1 стак.
Яйцо — 2 шт
Маргарин мягкий — 125 г
Мед — 3 ст. л.
Корица молотая — 1 ст. л.
Сода (не гасить!!!) — 1 ч. л.
Сахар (для глазури) — 4 ст. л.
Молоко (для глазури) — 2 ст. л.
Мука пшеничная — 2,5 стак.
Повидло (любое густое) — 1 стак.
Приготовление:
1.Сахар, яйца, соду, корицу и мед перемешайте.
2.Добавьте маргарин (если не размягченный, я тру на терке). Хорошо перемешайте и поставьте на кипящую водяную баню на 10-15 мин. Периодически помешивайте.
3.У вас получится однородная воздушная масса.
4.Добавьте в эту массу один стакан просеянной муки. Перемешайте и остудите. (Я ставлю чашку с тестом в емкость с холодной водой минут на 10, периодически помешивая). ЭТО ОБЯЗАТЕЛЬНО!!!!!!!!!!!! В остывшее, теплое тесто постепенно добавляйте оставшуюся просеянную муку, хорошо размешивая вилкой, в конце замеса - руками. Количество муки приблизительное, может понадобиться чуть больше.
Если сыпать муку в горячее тесто (не остудив предварительно), то муки уйдет гораздо больше, и тесто получится очень тугое, а нам нужно мягкое и эластичное.
5.Раскатайте тесто в пласт толщиной 0,5 см и разрежьте на 9 квадратов. Стол хорошо подпылите мукой, а то тесто может прилипнуть.
6.На одну половинку квадрата положите повидло, накройте второй половиной и хорошо придавите по бокам пальцами. Тесто очень хорошо формируется и склеивается, начинка не вытечет)
7.Вилку обмакните в муку и надавите по бокам пряника - для красоты
8.Выложите на смазанный маслом лист пергамента и выпекайте в горячей духовке при температуре 180 градусов минут 10-15, не больше! Пекутся быстро - вы увидите, они хорошо поднимутся и подрумянятся.
9.Пока пекутся приготовьте глазурь: смешайте сахар и молоко, поставьте на огонь и мешайте до растворения сахара, доведите до кипения и кипятите 3-4 минуты.
10.Как только испекутся, сразу горячими смажьте глазурью и дайте остыть.

ТЕСТО НЕЖНОЕ И МЯГКОЕ ТАЕТ ВО РТУ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Пополнение рогатых

Ореховые рогалики
Очень вкус­ные, неж­ные, рас­сыпча­тые и аро­мат­ные ро­гали­ки. Этот ре­цепт я наш­ла в кни­ге из­вест­ной ук­ра­инс­кой хо­зяй­ки Д. Цвек. Он ме­ня сра­зу за­ин­те­ресо­вал, пос­коль­ку и ро­гали­ки, и вы­печ­ку с оре­хами я очень люб­лю. Но оби­лие столь раз­ных аро­матов ме­ня нес­коль­ко сму­щало. Я при­вык­ла, что обыч­но до­мини­ру­ет ка­кой-то один, а ос­таль­ные его от­те­ня­ют. Здесь же все аро­маты силь­ные и яр­кие, и мне слож­но бы­ло предс­та­вить, как же в ито­ге бу­дут пах­нуть ро­гали­ки. Тем ин­те­рес­нее бы­ло поп­ро­бовать их ис­печь.
Ре­зуль­тат по­лучил­ся очень и очень! Аро­маты все сме­шались в очень яр­кий и не­обыч­ный бу­кет.
В ре­цепт я внес­ла не­боль­шие из­ме­нения, но не ду­маю, что это как-то пов­ли­яло на вку­совые ка­чест­ва ро­гали­ков.
Тес­то:
  • 100 г мар­га­рина или сли­воч­но­го мас­ла
  • 150 г му­ки
  • 50 г са­хара
  • 2 яй­ца
  • 0,5 ч.л. ко­рицы
  • 2 ч.л. раз­рыхли­теля
На­чин­ка:
  • 100 г мо­лотых грец­ких оре­хов
  • 2 ст.л. мо­лотых бе­лых су­харей
  • 100 г са­хара
  • 50 мл очень креп­ко­го на­тураль­но­го ко­фе, сва­рен­но­го на мо­локе
  • ва­ниль­ный са­хар
Мар­га­рин в ком­бай­не по­руби­те с му­кой в мел­кую крош­ку.
У од­но­го яй­ца от­де­лите бе­лок и от­ло­жите его в сто­рону.
До­бавь­те в мас­ля­ную крош­ку са­хар, ко­рицу, раз­рыхли­тель, яй­цо и жел­ток. За­меси­те тес­то. Оно лип­ко­ватое, но долж­но сфор­ми­ровать­ся в шар.
Ореховые рогалики, тесто
Ес­ли не хо­чет, до­бавь­те ещё сов­сем нем­но­го му­ки.
Отп­равь­те тес­то на час в хо­лодиль­ник. А тем вре­менем при­готовь­те на­чин­ку. Сва­рите ко­фе на мо­локе, про­цеди­те. Мо­лотые оре­хи сме­шай­те с су­харя­ми и са­харом, за­лей­те ко­фе до кон­систен­ции сред­не-гус­той ман­ной ка­ши. Пос­тавь­те смесь на мед­ленный огонь и ва­рите, по­меши­вая, до за­гус­те­ния. На­чин­ка долж­на стать пас­то­об­разной. Ос­ту­дите.
Ох­лаждён­ное тес­то дос­тань­те, рас­ка­тай­те тол­щи­ной 3 мм, на­режь­те квад­ра­тами со сто­роной 6 см. На се­реди­ну каж­до­го квад­ра­та по­ложи­те на­чин­ку.
Рогалики с ореховой начинкой
Один из уг­лов смажь­те бел­ком. Два про­тиво­полож­ных уг­ла внах­лёст уло­жите над на­чин­кой, при­чём свер­ху дол­жен быть тот, ко­торый сма­зали бел­ком, что­бы ро­галик при вы­печ­ке не раз­вернул­ся.
Рогалики
На­чин­ка при вы­печ­ке ве­дёт се­бя прос­то об­разцо­во-по­каза­тель­но — не вы­тека­ет и не рас­полза­ет­ся. По­это­му ро­гали­ки мож­но осо­бо не за­щипы­вать.
Ра­зог­рей­те ду­хов­ку до 200°С. Вы­ложи­те ро­гали­ки на выс­те­лен­ный пер­га­мент­ной бу­магой про­тивень и отп­равь­те в ду­хов­ку ми­нут на 12-15. Ро­гали­ки долж­ны слег­ка за­румя­нить­ся.
Го­рячи­ми по­сыпь­те ва­ниль­ной са­хар­ной пуд­рой. И при­ят­но­го ап­пе­тита!  http://photokulinar.com/sladkoe/popolnenie-rogatyx/

"Apple Hill" Stuffed Pork Loin with Barsotti's Apple Juice Pan Jus

 

Ingredients
  • 1, 2-lb. pork loin roast
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 2 Granny Smith apples, small dice
  • 1 cup dried cherries
  • 1 cup Rum
  • 1 red onion, jullienned
  • 4 large fresh sage leaves, chiffonade
  • ¼ cup Panko breadcrumbs
  • 2 cups Barsotti's Apple Juice
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 teaspoon "Better than Bouillon" beef base

Preparation

In a small saucepan over high heat, bring the apple juice to a boil; then lower the heat and simmer to reduce until it has a syrupy consistency. You will have about ¼ cup of liquid left. When done, turn off the heat, add the water and whisk in the beef base. Set aside to cool.
While apple juice is reducing, melt butter in a large frypan over medium-high heat. Add the onions and sauté; when the onions start to brown around the edges, turn the heat down to medium-low and caramelize, stirring frequently. When the onions are the color of milk chocolate, add the apples and the dried cherries and take off the heat; then add the Rum. Place back on the heat and cook until almost all of the Rum has boiled away. Add the breadcrumbs and sage; stir in and allow to cool.
Using your longest, sharpest knife, butterfly the pork loin by starting at the bottom of the roast and cutting lengthwise about 1/2 inch from the cutting board. Pull the roast away from your knife, opening it like a book. Repeat this process by starting at the end of your last incision, be careful not to cut all the way through the meat. You should have a relatively flat piece of meat, but if it is not you can pound it to a uniform thickness with a meat mallet.
When the apple-and-onion mixture has cooled, stuff the pork loin with the mixture, pressing it flat on the entire surface of the pork. Make sure to leave about a ½-inch border with no stuffing; otherwise when you roll it, it will come out the sides. Roll the roast into a jelly-roll shape. Tie it with butchers twine.
Preheat the oven to 350°F.
Preheat a large frypan to medium-high heat.
Brown the roast in canola oil on three sides for 3-5 minutes each or until the roast is a nice golden-brown. Place on the unseared side and slide the whole pan into the oven. Roast for 35-40 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 140-145°F. Remove from the pan and allow it to rest while you complete the pan jus.
Place the pan on medium-heat and deglaze with the apple cider mixture; make sure to scrape all the brown bits off the bottom of the pan. Slice the roast and serve with a healthy portion of the jus and the Fuji Apple Slaw.  http://www.nuggetmarket.com/recipes.php?id=272

White Barbecue Sauce

In Alabama Barbecue traditional Sauce uses Mayonnaise as its base rather than tomato sauce, vinegar, or any of the other more typical barbecue sauce bases. It is clearly a region favorite. Bob Gibson of Decatur, Alabama is credited with the invention the white sauce back in 1925.
White Barbecue Sauce

Friends and family were first treated to this secret-recipe sauce on chicken and pork at weekend barbecues where boards were nailed to trees for tables. Today, this famous mayonnaise-based condiment is traditionally employed to baste chicken, seafood and pork.
White BBQ Sauce is as synonymous with the state with Alabama as the legendary “BAMA” football program. White BBQ Sauce’s intriguing flavor complements salads and is a superb baste for chicken, pork and turkey. You can also use White Sauce as an ingredient to add an extra kick to your favorite slaw or potato salad. However, because the racks of your local grocer are dominated by many incarnations of tomato-based sauces and white bbq sauce is such a regional anomaly, most people outside Alabama have not tested this concoction of flavor.
Like many barbecue sauces you want to apply this only at the very end of your grilling or smoking. It will breakdown and separate if it is heated too long. Use this sauce on chicken and turkey. It is also good on pork. Alabama White Barbecue Sauce has a tangy flavor that is a great addition to grilled foods.
White BBQ Sauce makes a unique experience. Use this recipe when grilling chicken; brush lightly over the chicken during the last few minutes of grilling. This sauce is also great for dipping; keep some sauce aside for passing at the table.
White BBQ Sauce Recipe
Ingredients:
1 quart mayonnaise
3/4 quart apple cider vinegar
1/2 cup corn syrup
1/4 tablespoon cayenne pepper
Prepared horseradish
Lemon juice
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Directions:
Place all ingredients in a very large blender or food processor. Blend for 1 minute, or until thoroughly mixed and sauce is smooth. Pour sauce into a large container or bowl.  http://barbecue-tips.com/white-barbecue-sauce/#more-84

Healthy Experience

There are countless ways you can turn your grilling not only into a flavorful and enjoyable way to cook, but there are also many healthy and tasty alternatives. Like anything else in life, what you put on your grill is a choice.
Healthy Experience

Grilling healthy first means that you have decided to eat healthy. Cooking on a grill can be a great way to reduce fats on while adding wonderful flavor however we must also be careful when grilling as there can be certain risks if precautions are not taken. Eating healthy always begins with choosing healthy foods that are low in fat and using marinates to reduce unhealthy caseinogens.
We know that charcoal grilling can produce carcinogenic smoke from the high temperature cooking of foods containing fat and protein. This can produce unhealthy chemical changes in the outer layers of flesh foods. To avoid these dangerous chemical formations we must avoid inhaling the smoke and avoid the black char on the outside of charcoal cooked food caused by high heat and/or overcooking. It is also advised that any lighter fluid or self-lighting packages be avoided as they can also add toxic chemicals directly into your food. Instead, use a starter chimney and newspaper to get your charcoal lit. While this method may initially take a few more minutes, in the long run it’s faster and healthier. The use of marinades can also help greatly lower caseinogens in food. By using a marinade your food will not only take on extra flavor but even a simple marinade consisting of olive oil and a citrus juice can reduce the harmful chemicals by as much as 99%. A marinade will also assist in tenderizing and enhancing your food’s natural flavors.
There has been a lot of talk about grilling and the risk of cancer. While the risk is real and this should be kept in mind, there are some simple things you can do to greatly reduce the risk of cancer caused by grilling. The harmful chemicals that can form are created by putting food, primarily meats, under intense heat and flame. These are cancer forming agents however by taking a few simple precautions you can greatly reduce and even eliminate the risks. Grilling isn’t the only cooking method that causes these agents so there is no reason to give up on your grill. If done right, grilling is one of the healthiest methods of cooking.
To reduce the risks follow these basic tips:
• Trim excess fats from all foods. The fats are the main contributors to harmful chemicals so avoid fatty foods as much as possible.
• Using marinades based on olive oils and citrus juices with greatly help reduce the risks.
• Maintain a clean grill. This will also help reduce harmful cancer forming chemicals.
• Avoid letting your grill flare-up. Extreme heat and flame will also increase risk.
• Do not overcook foods. If you do accidentally char your food simply scrape or cut that portion off.  http://barbecue-tips.com/healthy-experience/#more-68

Perfect BBQ Ribs

Most master grillers prepare their ribs first, before cooking them on a charcoal grill. This is why some grillers cook perfect ribs every time. Usually at a BBQ event, guests see the cook placing the ribs on the grill, never knowing that work was done beforehand to get the ribs ready. Those new to grilling assume that the cook is just brushing sauce on the ribs, and then cooking them until done directly on the grill and this isn’t always so.
Perfect BBQ Ribs

If you are grilling BBQ ribs on a regular charcoal grill, then you’re probably frustrated when you find that your ribs are tough instead of “meat falling off the bones” tender. If this is the case, then you can learn how to barbeque perfect ribs easily by preparing your ribs properly in advance, before you ever place them on your grill.
To prepare your ribs, first bring a large pot of water to a boil. You should do this the day before your BBQ event or dinner. Add a bit of salt to the water, and then bring it down to a simmer. Add your ribs, cover and simmer them for 1 to 2 hours and then carefully remove them from the pot. Your ribs should be tender and juicy now, but you shouldn’t place them on the grill just yet.
Place them in a large bowl, add your BBQ sauce, cover and refrigerate this overnight. This provides ample time for the ribs to marinate in the sauce, to produce that rich BBQ flavor that everyone loves so well.
The next day, light your grill and let the coals die down to warm glowing embers. You should never BBQ your ribs over an open flame; this can burn the sauce and ruin the flavor of your BBQ ribs.
Once the flames have died down, brush some more sauce on your ribs and place them directly on the grill. Cook for 10 minutes, brush some more sauce on the top of the ribs, turn and cook the other side for 10 minutes. Continue cooking the ribs in this fashion until they are fully done, turning your BBQ ribs every 10 minutes while adding fresh sauce at every turn.
Once your ribs are done, place them on a serving platter and serve while they are still hot. Your guests will go crazy over your delicious, juicy and tender ribs. This is the proper way to cook perfect BBQ ribs. If you just throw the ribs on a grill, without preparing them first, then your ribs will be very tough and not very good no matter what type of sauce is used.
BBQ sauce is used to add flavor, not to cover up inferior cooking. Don’t you owe it to yourself and to your dinner guests to go that extra mile, ensuring that your ribs are not only tasty, but also mouth watering tender? You’ll be known as the best BBQ rib griller in your area.    http://barbecue-tips.com/perfect-bbq-ribs/#more-64

Grilling Out And Cooking Outdoors

BBQ Ribs Oh So Good

Below is a recipe for delicious BBQ Ribs  
Barbecue Ribs - Competition Style in Your Backyard
by: Bill Anderson


Great barbeque recipes are hard to come by. Most recipes and books leave out important information like times and temperatures. In our book, “Competition BBQ Secrets”, we give you all the details on how to cook professional competition quality meats. And... guess what? You can do it to in your back yard. You don’t need a fancy $2000 offset smoker. Just use your Weber kettle grill!...

Prepping your grill

Just about everybody has a Weber kettle charcoal grill in their back yard. You can smoke some pretty good ribs on these things. This is one of my favorite barbeque recipes because I can use mesquite wood and Lee will not allow me to put mesquite in his expensive Lang Smoker because of the residue it leaves on the inside surfaces. Anyway... here’s how to set up your charcoal grill so that you are “offset smoking” and not grilling... I simply start it up by making two piles of charcoal briquettes on opposite sides of the grill (away from the center). Make sure your vents on the bottom of the grill are open and not clogged with ashes. I then squirt my lighter fluid on the briquettes and light them.

Start soaking your wood chips at least an hour before you will need them. I make sure the charcoal is white before I start smoking so that all the lighter fluid has burnt up and does not give your meat a lighter fluid taste. If you want to use a charcoal chimney to start your charcoal, that’s OK too - some people hate using lighter fluid. Just dump your “white” charcoal from the chimney on opposite sides of the grill when they are ready. You can place a disposable aluminum pan between your charcoal piles and fill it with about an inch of warm water or beer if you want.

Prepping your ribs

You can either buy spareribs or what is called loin back ribs. If you buy the big spareribs, cut the brisket end off the ribs at the joint. Then trim the skirt meat off. Don’t throw this away - you can cook it separately and eat it too. You also want to pull the membrane off the back side of the ribs. If you want, you can put your favorite dry rub on both sides of your ribs at this time. I prefer the more natural taste of the smoked meat with a little BBQ sauce, so I do not apply any rub or any other seasonings before smoking. That’s the great thing about barbecue recipes... you can change them up to suit your liking! Just don’t change the “technique” too much.

Let’s start smoking

When you are ready to start smoking, place your grate on the grill so that the holes near the handles are over your charcoal piles. This way, you can add charcoal as needed to maintain your heat. Some newer models have hinged grates for this purpose.

Now all you do is place your meat in the center of the grate - away from the charcoal piles. When I smoke ribs, I use a rib rack on top of the grate. Weber makes a good rib rack and you can get one at any good store that sells Weber grills. Place your trimmed pieces anywhere not directly over the coals. Throw some soaked mesquite chips directly on the charcoal and close the lid (don’t overdo the mesquite chips - mesquite imparts a strong smoke taste so a little goes a long way). Feel free to used soaked hickory, pecan, oak, apple, or any other “flavor” of wood chips that suits your taste buds. This is another way to personalize your barbeque recipes... there are all different types of woods and wood combinations that you can use. There are even unique and exotic woods like grape vine. I personally like mesquite as I feel it is the only smoke flavor that will not get covered up by your sauce. If done right, it’s not overpowering, but you can still taste that delicious smoke flavor.

Open the vents on the lid all the way and insert a thermometer through one of the vent holes. This is important! I use one of those confection/deep fry style thermometers with the clip and long stem on it. It’s important to measure the temperature as close to the meat as possible. Smoke your ribs at 230 - 240 deg F. If the temperature is too high (around 300 deg) for the first 30 minutes, don’t worry about it too much. If it gets any hotter than 300 deg then crack the lid a little to let some heat escape. When the temperature gets too low, just open the lid and toss in a few new briquettes and/or soaked wood chips. Try to stay “ahead of the game” as far as heat is concerned because it’s easier to cool down a hot smoker than it is to get it back up to temperature if your fire goes out.

Cook the ribs for 3 hours. Don’t open the lid unless absolutely necessary - remember, “if you’re looking, you ain’t cooking”. While you are adding charcoal, you can also spray the ribs with apple juice to keep them moist. After 3 hours, take your ribs off and wrap tightly in foil and return to the grill for one more hour.

Ready for glazing

After one hour in the foil, take your ribs out of the foil and place back on the grill. You’ll know your ribs are getting done when the meat is pulling away from the bone - this is a sure sign that your ribs are getting done. Maybe gently tug on one of the bones to see if it is “loose”. Also... if you pick up one end of a slab with a pair of tongs and your slab bends down 90°, then that is another sign that your ribs are getting done. Barbeque recipes are not an exact science... you have to use some common sense. If it’s cold outside, or humid, or dry your times and temps may vary. Just keep an eye on things and increase or decrease times accordingly.

After removing from the foil, apply your favorite BBQ sauce and glaze the ribs for one more hour. You can cut your BBQ Sauce with honey to make a sweet glaze if that is what you like. Apply your glaze to both sides and flip after 15 minutes and reapply glaze after each 15 minutes. After one hour of glazing, let your ribs rest for at least 15 minutes and then slice between each bone. You are now ready to sink your teeth into some of the best ribs you have ever tasted! Mouth watering, tender, and falling off the bone good!

Important Cooking Tip About Aluminum Foil

Aluminum foil should never come in contact acidic fruits or vegetables such as lemons , oranges , tomatoes , grapefruits etc. One real mistake a lot of cooks make is to cover tomato paste covered meat loaf with aluminum foil and then they bake it in the oven. The top of the meat loaf comes out looking burned and is not as tasty as it should be. Try putting several toothpicks into the top of your meatloaf before wrapping it with aluminum foil and your meatloaf will come out of the oven looking pretty and will be very tasty. Of course you should use wooden toothpicks in case your wondering.

Beef Bourguignonne

Холодает у нас. Поэтому салатами одними не проживешь. Хотелось чего то горячего, сытного! Давно уже собиралась приготовить какое то рагу, но как то едоков все не хватало, а ведь на 1-2х человек его не приготовишь, больше мороки. А тут пригласили друзей на ужин, вот я и решилась. Чесно говоря переживала, не знала получится ли или нет, боялась что мясо будет жестким или не вкусным. Ошибалась! все получилось на ура! Превзошло все мои ожидания! Оказалось еще ко всему же это не так то и сложно готовить! вот теперь по такой схеме буду и другие рагу готовить... с другими добавками.
Но тут поговорим о классике. О не произносимом для не французскоговорящих людей

Вареники с редькой

Спасибо [info]queenofswords4 за идею вареников с редькой. Что вам сказать? Это таааааак вкусно!


Ну тесто уже все умеют делать. Для начинки редьку (горькую, черную) натереть на терке посыпать сыром, полить майонезом и запечь до красивой корочки, обжарить на растительном масле (как капусту). Ну в общем то и все. Посолить поперчить. Можно добавить лук, можно не добавлять. Редька, как оказалось, впитывает в себя много масла, поэтому с ним поосторожнее, даже если будет казаться что масла не хватает, лучше не добавлять, просто почаще помешивать.
Я сделала половину просто с редькой, половину с редькой и картошкой.
В общем у меня теперь есть еще одна любимая начинка. и совсем она не вишневая :)
