Lo-bak Go - Chinese Radish Cakes

(1 reviews) Posted by Jenny Sanders  

This is my favourite Chinese Dim-Sum. It is a steamed cake of rice flour and grated Chinese radish (lo-bak), which is then cut into slices and pan fried. Not unlike scrapple, in some ways, although less meaty. It's delicious with lots of hot... MORE»

Clapshot (Potatoes, Carrots & Rutabaga)

(5 reviews) Posted by Jenny Sanders  

This is a very intriguing dish. The flavours blend so well it is hard to identify any one of the componants; instead it seems like some new, mysterious veggie. MORE»

Save the Stems Broccoli, Carrot & Cabbage Stir Fry

(1 reviews) Posted by Jenny Sanders  

I've always liked broccoli, providing you are talking about the budding tops. The stems I could do without. For a while there I was throwing the stems away, but that felt so extravagant that I kept wondering if there wasn't something I could do... MORE»

Chilled Beet & Celery Soup

Posted by Jenny Sanders  

My mother served this for a Thanksgiving lunch. I admit, I was a little dubious about it at first, since beets have never been my favourite vegetable. (Once upon a time they were my absolutely least-liked food, but I've seen at least a glimmer of... MORE»

My Cottage Pie (A.k.a. Shepherd's Pie)

(2 reviews) Posted by Jenny Sanders  

Cottage pie (which, unlike shepherd's pie which is made with lamb, is made with beef) has always been a favourite dish in our household. I'd make it with lamb, too, if I had it, but we always seem to have beef. Anyway, this is how it has evolved. MORE»

Homestyle Pasta Sauce

(1 reviews) Posted by Jenny Sanders  

My parents got divorced when I was 12, and so began the tradition of "Spaghetti Night", which was every Monday when my father did not get home until 6:00 p.m. I was put in charge of making dinner - always spaghetti. I started off with frying up... MORE»

Praline Apple Cake

(1 reviews) Posted by Jenny Sanders  

An extra-special apple cake; maybe the best I've ever had. Rich, though. I got it out of a fundraising cookbook put out by a Toronto school. I don't think I fiddled with it much; maybe I upped the apple content in my never-ending quest for truely... MORE»

Lotsa Apples Apple Cake

(3 reviews) Posted by Jenny Sanders  

Yes, I know there's a glut of apple cake recipes here already. I want mine. Mine has what I think most apple cakes lack - a TON of apples. I use 5 large apples, even if it's a bit more than 4 cups. There's a trick to getting the cake just... MORE»

Dill Pickles by the Jar

(2 reviews) Posted by Jenny Sanders  

This was the first recipe for dill pickles I ever made, and it's still a favourite. I like the technique it uses of making the pickles right in the canning jars, rather than in a crock. I've since adapted the method to any fermented pickles that I... MORE»

Parmesan "Grapes"

Posted by Jenny Sanders  

I got this recipe from an advertisement, I believe, in Homemakers' Magazine. Be sure to use Parmigiano-Reggiano. This makes fairly firm "grapes"; use a little more cream to make them softer if you want. MORE»

Damson Plum Nectar

(1 reviews) Posted by Jenny Sanders  

I got carried away with the Damson plums this year, and so I came up with this recipe in order not to have 60 jars of jam. I think it's a winner! MORE»

Russian Tarragon Pickles

Posted by Jenny Sanders  

I adapted this from a cookbook posted by MIR in the 1970's. I am not a big fan of tarragon, so I prefer dill pickles, but if you are a fan of tarragon, give these a try! Like dill pickles, these are very simple to make. MORE»

Michael's Slightly Salty Pickled Onions

(1 reviews) Posted by Jenny Sanders  

This recipe came from my friend Michael. He got the recipe from his grandmother, and made a few changes to it. (Like figuring out her very cryptic instructions.) These are a different pickled onion than the usual, having no extra spices and having... MORE»

Canned (Bottled) Salsa

(20 reviews) Posted by Jenny Sanders  

Most recipes for canning salsa call for vinegar, which I do not like at all. It makes the salsa taste more like a pickle and less like a fresh salsa. I developed this recipe to conform to the requirements of safe canning practices while still... MORE»

No-vinegar Dill Pickles

(2 reviews) Posted by Jenny Sanders  

Posted in response to a request for dill pickles made without vinegar. This recipe is per quart; make as many quarts as you like. These are excellent, and very easy to make. The hardest part about making pickles is scrubbing the cucumbers, and I'm... MORE»

Dietetic Diabetic Pineapple Pudding

(3 reviews) Posted by Jenny Sanders  

I am on a rather strict diet at the moment, and came up with this yummy dessert that meets the letter of the 'law' if not the spirit! Be sure to use pineapple in its own juice, NOT pineapple in syrup. Cook time is chill time - this is very quick... MORE»

Ginger Cashew Sauce

Posted by Jenny Sanders  

A friend, who is allergic to garlic, liked to get a certain brand of ginger peanut sauce, because it was good, and because she could eat it without fear of dying; always a bonus. It could be hard to get, though, so I came up with a home-made... MORE»

Vegan "Chicken" Stock

Posted by Jenny Sanders  

Early vegetarian cookbooks claimed that vegetable stock could be made from scraps of vegetables simmered, in the same way as meat/meat scraps are simmered, to make stock. It took me a ridiculously long time to figure out why these always tasted... MORE»
