Fried Okra

Sat, 20 Oct 2001 20:12:30 -0400

Being from Minnesota, I never had okra growing up, but after I moved south to Missouri, I found that I really loved it fried, even if it's kind of messy! -- posted by Miss Erin

Fried Green Tomatoes

Deviled Eggs

This is one of the best stuffed egg recipes I've come across, the one that looks great and tates great for a buffet, they go quickly!! -- posted by Derf

Sweet Potato Salad (Slatit batata helwa)

Mon, 14 Jan 2002 09:21:23 -0500

This Moroccan salad is both sweet and spicy. I like the olives and capers in it, but you could just as easily leave them out. I also wonder if it would be good with a handful of raisins, instead of the olives? -- posted by Sackville

Pickled Eggs

Piri-Piri (Chilli Dip)

Sat, 02 Mar 2002 09:58:17 -0500

Piri-piri is a popular Tanzanian dip used for grilled meat and chicken. Sometimes it is also mixed and eaten with rice. It might seem like lot of ingredients, but the preparation is very simple. One of the good things about this sauce is that the quantity of chili powder can be adjusted to suit your personal taste. (In Tanzania, it is very hot). Got this on the net ! -- posted by Mini R.

African Peanut Dipping Sauce

Fri, 12 Apr 2002 11:52:44 -0400

This recipe comes from the Moosewood Restaurant. It is a great dip for grilled, roasted, and deep-fried vegetables, as well as strips of roasted chicken. Great for parties and snacking! It stores well, up to 2-3 weeks in the fridge, just reheat and serve! -- posted by Sue L

Black Eyed Pea Cakes

Got this recipe from Southern Living. I served these at one of our BBQs and they were a big hit. -- posted by ratherbeswimmin'

Rocky Mountain Oysters

Mon, 13 May 2002 18:55:47 -0400

These are made from what is left after many ranchers castrate the spring calves. Many times they are just roasted over a campfire but the recipe below is what is served in local Colorado restaurants. Don't be a sissy about them. They are actually very good. Of course my prep time does not include the time to remove these meats from the animal. -- posted by Karen From Colorado

Buffalo Wings

Sat, 18 May 2002 13:42:16 -0400

This recipe has true hot wing flavor, not a bit sweet like some recipes. The sauce thickens when it's simmered so that it clings to the wings well. -- posted by MaggiePA

African Piri - Piri Kabobs

Wed, 22 May 2002 18:33:41 -0400

For Bergy, hope this is the right piri-piri spice mix. Found this in B H & G and will try it this weekend. Looks wonderful in the picture and sounds great. It will be interesting to see how it works. Will comment after I try it and let you all know. -- posted by Derf

Creamed SweetBreads

Tue, 28 May 2002 20:37:55 -0400

The worst part of this recipe is cleaning the sweetbreads. Sweet breads are a gland located in the neck of cattle not what you may otherwise have heard!!!! They have a wonderful delicate flavor and once tried you'll want them again. They are very difficult to find now but if you ask your butcher they should be able to bring them in for you. I also love them breaded and fried. I put six servings but that is only a taste each -- posted by Bergy

Spicy Buffalo Wings

Wed, 03 Jul 2002 20:05:52 -0400

This hot wings recipe can easily be made even hotter by adding an additional teaspoon each of curry powder and cayenne or chili pepper. -- posted by Miss Annie

I love deviled eggs, especially in the summer with picnic food and barbeque. -- posted by P4

Coconut Chips

Tue, 18 Mar 2003 20:07:22 -0500

My husband and I have spent a fair amount of time in the Caribbean, especially the little island of Bequia. While there, we were introduced to coconut chips, which were served like a munchy mix during happy hour. A bit different, but they can be addictive. A hammer is helpful to crack open the baked coconut. -- posted by Normaone

Sweet & Spicy Glazed Pecans

Wed, 26 Mar 2003 20:09:49 -0500

I love to add these pecans to salads of all kinds. Of course, they are pretty great just as they are! Feel free to adjust the seasoning to suit your individual taste. Also, walnuts and mixed nuts are really good fixed this way. -- posted by Normaone

Southern Cheesy Date Biscuits

Wed, 26 Mar 2003 20:10:18 -0500

Dates are some of my favorite things. Aside from being very easy to make, these date treats are great as a snack, appetizer or part of a meal. They also freeze well, both baked and unbaked. -- posted by Normaone

This is a very tasty yemenite hot sauce recipe which comes from Joan Nathan. It is a great condiment with real heat and flavour. It can be used in spreads, salad dressings, soups, marinades. You name it. Enjoy! -- posted by Miraklegirl

Deviled Eggs

Fri, 04 Apr 2003 20:21:27 -0500

I'm often asked to bring these to potlucks and family get-to-gethers. I always have to make extra, because my kids (even the biggest kid - DH) sneak them before I can get out the door with them. Three of the top U.S. egg producing states are in the midwest. No wonder these little jewels are so popular at those church potlucks in the Midwestern U.S. region. -- posted by PanNan

Pizza Rustica

Wed, 23 Apr 2003 20:04:18 -0400

Use whatever cheese you prefer.. If you do not like spicy then use a milder salami. This recipe was posted in our local TV Guide - I changed a couple of ingredients and measurements. The garlic is optional. It is a neat authentic version of an Italian pizza and I think very very good. You can cut very small slices and serve this as an appetizer (would serve 12) or have it as the main meal served with a green salad -- posted by Bergy

Dukkah

Sun, 14 Dec 2003 20:00:30 -0500

An amazing spice and nut mixture that can be sprinkled on salads or pasta dishes, mixed with olive oil and brushed on pita or pizza dough, or coated on chicken or fish and then grilled. You can also take some great bread, dip it in olive oil, then in the Dukkah... heaven. Enjoy! -- posted by Miraklegirl

Candy Nuts

Thu, 18 Dec 2003 20:00:09 -0500

This stuff is addictive! I love making these nuts to have out for company but have to have someone hide them from me or I'll eat them all before our guests arrive! Recipe from the Chicago Sun-Times -- posted by Hey Jude

Wed, 11 Feb 2004 19:59:53 -0500

I found this recipe in a magazine years ago and lost it! I just found it again on the Fleischmann's website! It's delicious! The bread part could probably be adapted to a bread machine, although I have not tried to yet. Please let me know if you do! -- posted by Normaone

Grilled Vegetable Terrine

Thu, 19 Feb 2004 19:59:29 -0500

I saw this being prepared on 'Canadian Living Cooks' and haven't made it yet. It looked so stunning and delicious on the show that I thought I would share it with everyone. I think its a wonderful lunch or buffet item. Enjoy! (Prep and cook times are approximate and do not include standing time) -- posted by Miraklegirl

Jamaican Jerk Chicken Wings

Sun, 08 Apr 2007 20:36:49 -0400

You can adjust the heat in this recipe by the type of pepper you use. I used serrano peppers and thought it was just right, but I like food pretty spicy so if that's not for you, use a milder pepper, such as jalapeno. I found this in the Chicago Tribune 'Good Eating' section. I added the 2 hour chill time to the prep time. -- posted by Hey Jude
