Cabbage Slaw Dressing

 I have previously posted other Slaw Dressings but I've decided that this one is my favorite......or maybe just my "new" favorite. 

It's not heated and there's no granulated sugar in it. You have the option of adding some sweetness based on taste by adding some Honey.

Here's what you'll need:

A Small Mixing Bowl

An Immersion Blender









A Small Cabbage, chopped and placed in a Serving Bowl.

3/4 C Vegetable Oil, not Olive Oil.

1/4 C White Vinegar

1 tsp Celery Seeds

1 tsp Dry Ground Mustard

1 tsp Salt

1/2 of a Small Sweet Onion, diced.

1 - 2 TBS Honey. (to Taste for desired Sweetness)


Place all ingredients in a Bowl.

Blend well with an Immersion Blender, until Creamy Smooth.

Pour over the Cabbage until desired Consistency.

Refrigerate any remaining in a covered Bowl or Jar.


Enjoy!

Peace in the Kitchen!

Applesauce Cake

Applesauce Loaf Cake:

1 C brown sugar
1/4 C butter
1 C applesauce
1 tsp baking soda dissolved in a little water.
2 C flour
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp ground cloves.
1/8 tsp nutmeg
1 C raisins
a pinch of salt

In a mixing bowl with a hand mixer, cream together butter and sugar.
Add spices
Add applesauce, flour and baking soda.
Add raisins.
Beat well.

Pour into a loaf pan buttered and floured well or use my Pan Release Mixture (equal parts of Crisco, flour and vegetable oil mixed well and applied with a pastry brush) This is my foolproof method to release anything I bake.
Bake at 350 degrees for 50 minutes.

Enjoy!

Gruyere Soufflé


"Gruyère cheese is generally known as one of the finest cheeses for baking, having a distinctive but not overpowering taste. In Quiche, Gruyère adds savoriness without overshadowing the other ingredients. It is a good melting cheese, particularly suited for Fondues along with Vacherin and Emmental. It is also traditionally used in French Onion Soup, as well as in Croque Monsieur, a classic French toasted Ham and Cheese Sandwich. Gruyère is also used in chicken and veal Cordon Bleu. It is a fine table cheese, and when grated, it is often used with Salads and Pastas. It is used, grated, atop Le Tourin, a type of garlic soup from France which is served on dried bread. White wines, such as Riesling, pair well with Gruyere. Sparkling apple cider and Bock beer are also beverage affinities."
