Have to put my two cents worth in on the mock zucchini apple pie. I made it one time, didn't fool my son-in-law, but I liked it. The only problem was it spoiled VERY fast, so it really needs to be refrigerated. Other than that, it tasted like an apple pie. And what else are ya gonna do with all of
those zucchinis?!
Kathy in SW Kansas

Nancy, I miss Chef Raymo too. I always liked his recipes. A funny coincidence, I just made the Chocolate E'clair dessert for our 4th of July party. Everyone enjoyed it. This time I used vanilla pudding instead of chocolate, and made my own topping. It's good and easy.

Choc. E'clair topping:

Melt 2 squares of semi sweet chocolate. Add 1 teaspoon vanilla, 1-2/3 cups powered sugar, 3
tablespoons softened butter, 2 teaspoons white corn syrup and 4 tablespoons milk. Mix all together
and pour over graham crackers. Covers a 9x12 dish.

Last night before going to sleep I found myself wondering what section of our country has the most
newsletter members. I would guess that it is the south?

Brenda/Alabama, thank you for the Party Chicken Salad recipe. I will try it this week. It sounds pretty close to the kind of chicken salad I like.

Reading about the things we used to eat years ago brought back memories of going to my Grandma's house for a week each summer. She lived back in the hills of Kentucky and for breakfast she would always make a big batch of biscuits and a thick gravy. She had one of those stoves that used wood and I always wondered how she knew when the oven was ready. Her biscuits were always good.

I'm pretty sure everything was made with lard. She also served sliced tomatoes for breakfast. Sometimes for breakfast we would have fried squirrel. :) It was an entirely different world. They didn't have electricity either! Those were the days!
Doris, S. Indiana

Marvis in Texas asked for recipes using cherry tomatoes. This recipe comes from my sister. They can be served hot or at room temperature. They have been very popular at the last two parties we had.

18 cherry tomatoes
2 Tbs chopped basil leaves

1 tsp sugar
1/4 tsp salt
6 slices firm thin sliced white bread (like Pepperidge Farm)

In a small skillet, heat oil, stir in garlic and remove from heat. Set aside.

Stir garlic oil, basil, cheese, vinegar, sugar and salt into reserved pulp. Cut bread into 1/8 inch cubes and stir into tomato mixture until just combined. Divide bread salad among halves and serve.

Spaghetti Squash Recipe for Diane (7/07):
Preparation tips: Baking in the oven takes a long time, so cut into quarters and remove seeds (if difficult microwave for 45 sec.). Pour 1/4 c. water into large microwaveable dish, place squash cut-side down, & cover with plastic wrap. Microwave 7-10 min., cool few min. and scrape out the
spaghetti!

Ideas:
* You can microwave, bake or boil squash, then top w/marinara or alfredo sauce & sprinkling of
Parmesan cheese.
* Toss cooked squash w/ham & cheese sauce, then bake.
* Saute in olive oil& top w/ Parmesan.
* Use in place of pasta in soups, salads, or casseroles. Try marinating first in vinaigrette & chilling
before adding to salads.

Good morning to everyone in Nancyland, Am looking for TNT recipe for Chicken, broccoli and ziti.
Thank you all, Candy

Hi Nancy, PJ and All...Apology not necessary, I'm happy to help make directions for amount of rice needed in the "Shrimp Vegetable Casserole" clear. The recipe calls for 4 cups of cooked rice. You would start with 2 cups raw (uncooked) rice to get this amount.

While I am writing, there has been interest lately in 'stuffed' fish recipes and I thought I would send you another excellent one for stuffed red snapper that was developed and published in a leaflet put out by the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department in Cooperation with the U.S. Bureau of Commercial Fisheries under P.L. 88-309 (publication I feel is now out of print)...as follows:

Baked Red Snapper Recipe

3 or 4 pounds, dressed red snapper or other fish fresh or frozen
1 1/2 tsp. salt
Sour Cream Stuffing (recipe follows)
2 Tbsp. fat (Crisco) or oil

Thaw fish, if frozen. Clean, wash, dry fish. Sprinkle inside and out with salt. Stuff fish loosely. Close opening with small skewers or toothpicks Place fish in well-greased baking pan. Brush with fat. Place fish in moderate oven, 350° F, for 40 to 60 minutes or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork. Baste occasionally with fat. Remove skewers.
Serves 6.

(Note: The stuffing recipe makes more stuffing than the cavity of the fish will hold. After loosely stuffing the fish and closing with skewers, Bertha would mound the rest of the stuffing next to the fish and cover with aluminum foil to bake while fish was baking. This dressing is wonderful with fish
which makes a very nice presentation for a special occasion.)
Betty in MS

Sour Cream Stuffing Recipe

3/4 cup chopped celery
1/2 cup chopped onion
1/4 cup melted fat (Crisco) or cooking oil
1/4 cup diced, peeled lemon
1 quart dry bread crumbs
1/2 cup sour cream
2 Tbsp. grated lemon rind
1 tsp. ground paprika
1 tsp. salt

Cook celery and onion in fat until tender. Combine all ingredients and mix thoroughly. Makes
approximately 1 quart stuffing.

In the same publication it points out the importance of garnishes with fish: "Gay garnishes add zest and life to fish dishes in the same way that smart looking accessories dress up a wardrobe. Let the garnishes provide color contrast. Some garnishes for fish are:

Carrots, Tops, sticks, curls, shredded
Celery, Tops, hearts, sticks, curls
Chives, Chopped
Green or red peppers, Sticks or rings
Hard-cooked eggs, Slices, wedges, deviled, or quartered, or grated yolks
Lemons or limes, Slices, twists, wedges
Lettuce, Leaves, or shredded
Mint, Sprigs or chopped
Nut meats, Toasted, whole, slivered, halved, chopped
Olives, Whole, sliced, chopped
Oranges, Slices, twists, wedges
Paprika, Sprinkled sparingly
Pickles, Whole, sliced, chopped
Radishes, Whole, sliced as roses.."

Texas, Florida, Arkansas, states around the south, would send home economists to be trained by Bertha. Even when Bertha was not training someone, she was always working on developing recipes to promote fishing. We were always eager to get to the test kitchen when "test test" would be
announced over the loud-speaker system. As there was only room for 20, you would rush there as fast as your legs would carry you. After the taste test, you would fill in a questionnaire as to taste, texture, quality, etc....a minor detail we did not mind at all. Enjoy!

Nancy, speaking of Chef Raymo, I prepared his salmon croquettes recipe which you printed in a recent newsletter and they were delicious. The mashed potatoes stretches the recipe to make more than you could ordinarily make from a 7 ounce can of salmon. The only change I made was to dip
them in flour instead of cornmeal before frying.
Frances in Wesley Chapel

I would like to get a recipe for rice like is served with beans on most plates at the Mexican
restaurants.
Thanks Dorothy

Dorothy, I have a simple rice recipe that my family loves and asks for when we are making Mexican
food.

It is just instant rice and your favorite chunky salsa. Fix the rice following the box instructions USING SALSA instead of the water. If you are making a lot and need more liquid then you have salsa use water or chicken broth. I call this my Lazy Daze Spanish Rice. You can make it with long grain rice
also. Just use salsa and water for the liquid.

This message is for Susie in Indy, newsletter dated 7/12/09. My husband also had triple bypass surgery. His surgery was on 5/27/09. He did real well until he got a quart of fluid around his heart. He was having trouble breathing so his doctor sent him for a CT Scan and the fluid showed up. So it
was back to the hospital in Sacramento, over an hour away, admit him into the hospital and surgery the next day. He came through that fine, came home the next day was home for about a week then more breathing problems and went by ambulance to our local hospital here in Grass Valley.

They got him on oxygen and some other equipment, got him breathing good again, sent him home after 1 night and he is doing great now. I know what you are going through with your husband. Mine is restless, he wants to mow our lawn, we have a riding lawn mower but doctor says no not for
12 weeks. It has been 6 weeks now. I am so lucky I get to mow this lawn.

I want to thank Chris and everyone else who sent me the information and recipes for Smearcase cake. It has been many years since I had it. I seem to remember the one from the Velma bakery in Baltimore had a yeast dough crust, but want to try the recipes you all sent. Checking the Internet I
found that smearcase is the Pennsylvania Dutch name for cottage cheese but the cake is a Baltimore tradition. No wonder I've never found it here in Massachusetts!

I so enjoy your letter, Nancy, and just love the stories about Ditto. What a special cat he is. We, too, are cat lovers and
have our house cat as well as a stray who lives in our Garage. ( Our house cat is very jealous of the stray so we can't bring "Blondie" inside) It has finally stopped raining here in the northeast and gotten warmer so maybe we'll finally get some fresh garden tomatoes and corn. My vegetable man says if this weather holds, maybe next week...I can't wait!

To Betty in the July 9th letter about the eggs. I worked for 5 yrs. in an egg packing job. The owners told me before the government required them to wash the eggs with modern equipment they would last for 6 months or more. They used to store them that long in their big walk-in coolers and then
take them to the stores in Chicago. Once you wash off the outer coating of the egg they don't last as long. I have kept my store bought eggs for up to 2 months past the date with no problems. If you want to keep them longer buy your eggs from someone who raises their own chickens.

Have not been able to contribute lately, but "just had" to add this about two pie recipes in Sunday's newsletter. They were sent in by Chris in NM. One is for the Mock Pecan Pie using rolled oats [no pecans]& the other for the mock Apple Pie using Ritz Crackers instead of apples. I have made both &
will vouch for their being very good! I took the mock apple pie to work back in 1979, and no one could tell the difference. However since the talk about carbs came out, I decided it was smarter to use real apples instead of the added cracker carbs & salt. BUT please do not be afraid to try either recipe, they are that good.

Just one more comment, I have seen lately, several recipes where the author states "I found this recipe, but.." or "I have never tried this but maybe..." I still like the original idea from Nancy of posting ONLY tried and tested recipes.

Hi Nancy, Ditto, and friends,
Lori R. in the July 11 newsletter was looking for a zucchini pie recipe that tasted like apple pie for her friend. Here is the one that I have in my files.
Rose Marie in Freeborn, Mn.

Zucchini Pie Recipe

Peel, Slice the long way, and scrape seeds out of zucchini. Cut up like apple slices and make 7 cups,
cover and boil about 5 minutes in hot water. Drain. Put in bowl and add:
4 Tbsp. flour
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1tsp. cinnamon
1/2 tsp. salt
2 Tbsp. lemon juice

dough for double pie crust

Mix thoroughly and place zucchini in large 9 inch unbaked pie crust in pie pan and pour the other ingredients over. Cover with top pie crust and flute to seal edges. Cut slits into top of crust for steam to escape. Bake at 350 degrees for 45 to 60 minutes, or until zucchini is tender. This tastes
just like apple pie.

Hi Nancy,
Just reading this great newsletter filled with yummy recipes, ideas, and useful information. Lets not forget about all the chuckles also. Anyhow I was reading about all the different poor man's sandwiches that was eaten.

Well I to came from a very poor family of 9 children. Our favorite sandwiches were pork fat back or salt pork. My Mother would par boil slices and then fry them crisp. We would have that between a biscuit for our bacon. She would then use the grease rendered from the pork to use as our lard for frying. Now they were the good old days. I love fried potato sandwiches to.

Hi gang,
I had it wrong. The words my brother in law said he heard from the older gentleman but didn't understand was "sarching cold". So, does anyone know what that means?
Betty in ME

Here’s the recipe that Lori R. may be looking for. It’s a good way to use up extra zucchini and most people are fooled into thinking that they’re eating an apple pie. Its really good.

Zucchini Pie #2 Recipe

4 cups sliced zucchini
2 Tbsp. lemon juice
1/2 tsp. ground ginger
1/8 tsp. nutmeg
11/8 tsp. salt
1 1/4 cups sugar
2 tsp. cinnamon
1/4 tsp. cloves
1 1/2 tsp.. cream of tartar
3 Tbsp. flour
2 to 3 Tbsp. butter or margarine

Peel, cut lengthwise 3 to 4 zucchini; remove seeds. Slice approximately 1/4 inch thick. Steam until tender, about 5 to 8 minutes. Remove from heat and plunge into ice water for 5 minutes. Drain well. Combine all the dry ingredients and set aside. Toss drained zucchini with the lemon juice, then add
the dry ingredients and toss to blend well. Place in a 9” pie shell, dot with butter and cover with top crust. Bake at 400° for 40 to 50 minutes or until golden brown and filling is bubbling.

Big Mama's Fried Chicken Recipe
(Serves eight)

2 chickens cut into breasts, legs, wings, and thighs
4 large eggs
1/4 cup, water
3 cups, all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons, salt
1 tablespoon, paprika
2 teaspoons, ground black pepper
3 to 6 cups, shortening

Rinse the chicken, and pat dry. In a medium bowl, beat together the eggs and the water. Combine the flour, salt, paprika, and pepper in a bag, and set aside.

Heat the shortening in a large deep skillet until it is hot, but not smoking. If you're using an electric skillet, heat it to 400 degrees. Dip each piece of chicken in the egg mixture, and then place in the bag with the flour, and shake to coat. Let stand for 4 or 5 minutes. Fry three to five pieces of chicken at a time for about 15 minutes, until they are browned and cooked through. Drain on paper towels.

To Betty, July 9 Newsletter regarding expiration of eggs, I learned a long time ago not to trust dates on the boxes of eggs in the store. The only sure way you know if your eggs are o.k. is to take each one you are going to use and drop it gently into a clear tumbler of water. If it sinks and touches the
bottom and STAYS there, the egg is good. If it rises and floats it is a bad egg. Easy, simple and you don't waste any eggs this way - besides it sorta is fun to find a "BAD" egg that jumps to the top.

Good morning Nancy! These answers are all from the 7/11 newsletter.

Cleaning Poem

I asked the Lord to tell me
Why my house is such a mess.
He asked if I'd been 'computering',
And I had to answer 'yes.'
He told me to get off my fanny,
And tidy up the house.
And so I started cleaning up...
The smudges off my mouse.
I wiped and shined the topside.
That really did the trick....
I was just admiring my good work.
I didn't mean to 'click.'
But click, I did, and oops - I found
A real absorbing site
That I got SO way into it -
I was into it all night.

Nothing's changed except my mouse.
It's very, very shiny.
I guess my house will stay a mess.....
While I sit here on my hiney.
