Easy Orange Salad/Dessert

Wed, 25 Feb 2009 10:16:52 -0500

I'm prefacing this recipe with I'm pregnant and have some strange cravings these days! I really like the combination of cottage cheese and sour cream. I came up with this salad as a result of looking over oodles of recipes! Any flavor of jello will work - you may want to change the fruit to compliment the jello flavor you are using. **Cooking time is chilling time. Updated -- I remade this and agree with reviewer, the jello does need to be dissolved or it will be gritty. This is not a sweet salad, so if you want it sweeter, you would need to use whipped cream or add sugar. -- posted by kittycatmom

Orange Refrigerator Pudding

Fri, 27 Feb 2009 01:21:54 -0500

A little bit like a trifle, this sweetly delicious dessert comes from the Western chapter of the United States Regional Cookbook, Culinary Arts Institute of Chicago, 1947. If you prefer, use this as a filling between layers of sponge cake or angel cake. Chilling time not included in preparation time. -- posted by Molly53

Rustic Canyon's Cranberry Orange Cornmeal Cake

Thu, 19 Mar 2009 16:01:12 -0400

This beautifully rustic cornmeal cake has light notes of vanilla and maple, with ricotta folded into the batter just before baking for extra-moist texture. The cake is on the dessert menu at the wonderful Santa Monica restaurant, Rustic Canyon. It was created by their pastry chef Zoe Nathan and was printed in the LA Times (Oct. 29, 2008 ). It's a great do-ahead cake, as it tastes even better the next day. Recipe can be halved- it will take about half the time to bake. -- posted by blucoat

Victorian Spring Posy Cake for Easter or Mother's Day

Sun, 22 Mar 2009 03:11:13 -0400

One of my recent cake inventions - a standard Victoria Sandwich Sponge with a few delicious additions! Fresh oranges and lemons, lemon curd, crystallised violets and mascarpone cheese make this basic sponge cake moist and special enough for the Easter Sunday tea-time table, or for Mum on Mother's Day! I used lemon curd for the icing, but orange curd would also work if you wanted a mellow flavour. I have a recipe for crystallised violets on Zaar, Recipe #216296, and if you don't have any fresh violets, use any sugar paste flowers or cake decorations that work for you - the object is to make a Posy of flowers! This makes a big cake with one layer, you can cut the cakes again and make a three layer gateau if you wish. This cake disappeared quite quickly, but if you have any left, it keeps EXTREMELY well in a tin for up to one week. The sponge cakes can be frozen before icing, cutting back on time if you are going to be busy for the special event. -- posted by French Tart

Orange Glaze - Anne of Green Gables

Wed, 25 Mar 2009 12:00:23 -0400

Taken from "The Anne of Green Gables Cookbook", written by Lucy Maud Montgomery's granddaughter Kate Macdonald. I am posting this as it appears in the original book, which was written as a tribute to her father Stuart Macdonald (Montgomery's son). The recipes were written with precise instructions, geared for young cooks. All recipes were apparently tested by a 12 year old cook, with perfect results. Other recipes are available in a cookbook prepared by chef #756627 - book #243014 *NOTE*: Posting to add to the cookbook. I have not personally made this recipe. -- posted by Diana #2

Cran-Orange Mini Bundt Cakes

Sat, 28 Mar 2009 02:13:51 -0400

From the Nestle Baking Site... I'm posting this in honor of Sydney Mike and his love of cranberries. He did such a wonderful job with PAC and this recipe is being posted in his honor. I love the mixture of cranberries and light flavor of the orange zest and then add some chocolate chips - well it is a bit of heaven on a plate. Feel free to use dried cranberries in place of the fresh and low-fat buttermilk (or make your own...3/4 tbsp lemon juice + 3/4 cup milk (any fat content) -- let stand for 10 minutes will equal the 3/4 cup buttermilk needed for this recipe. Of course you can make this as one large bundt cake - just have it bake about 50-60 minutes, testing after 50 minutes. Enjoy! (Total time does not include time needed to allow cakes to cool). -- posted by HokiesLady

Strawberry Margarita Freeze

Sun, 29 Mar 2009 20:29:50 -0400

I love strawberries and this simple dessert really gets you in the mood for spring. It's very fresh and creamy. I didn't have orange juice but I had oranges so I made fresh squeezed (YUMMY). I also used real whipped cream instead of whipped topping. I found the recipe on Kraftfoods.com. Delicious! Cook time excludes chilling time. -- posted by AmyZoe

Creamy Ambrosia Cheesecake

Wed, 08 Apr 2009 11:47:19 -0400

I love this, and every time I make it, I think about how much my Dad enjoyes it. I hope you will enjoy it too. Plan ahead - allow minimum of 6 hours to chill. Time DOES NOT include cooling. -- posted by kittycatmom

Fresh Orange Sherbet

Wed, 15 Apr 2009 02:03:57 -0400

Unlike ice cream, store-bought sherbet is usually third-rate. If you want a really good fruit sherbet, do you have to make it yourself? YES! If using a canister-style ice cream machine, freeze the canister for at least 12 hours or, preferably, overnight. If the canister is not thoroughly frozen, the sherbet will not freeze beyond a slushy consistency. For the freshest, purest orange flavor, use freshly squeezed unpasteurized orange juice (either store-bought or juiced at home). Pasteurized fresh-squeezed juice makes an acceptable though noticeably less fresh-tasting sherbet. Do not use juice made from concentrate, which has a cooked and decidedly unfresh flavor. Vodka can be substituted for the Triple Sec, but I prefer the citrus flavor of the Triple Sec. Prep time includes juice chilling time. Adapted from Cook's Illustrated (America's Test Kitchen. -- posted by TxGriffLover

Iced Oranges With Granita

Fri, 24 Apr 2009 16:33:18 -0400

A pretty little dessert! Great to serve on a hot day or after a summer barbeque. I used navel oranges for mine - please note that if you use another type/size of orange, you may have to change the quantity of syrup/juice accordingly. You will probably end up with excess granita, but better too much than too little! -- posted by horseplay

Cardamom-Flavored Fruit Salad (Salatat Al-Fawaakih)

Fri, 26 Jun 2009 03:44:54 -0400

From: "Classic Vegetarian Cooking from the Middle East & North Africa"-Arabian Gulf. This is the BEST fruit salad my husband or I have ever tried! It's easy, healthy, refreshing and WONDERFUL. You have to like cardamom to really appreciate it though. You may find yourself doubling the sauce in the future because you want to drink it up. I don't repeat very many recipes because there are too many new ones to try but this one is repeated over and over during cantaloupe season. I'm sure it would work with other fruits as well but I like this combo so much I haven't experimented. -- posted by Engrossed

Bergamot Fresh Fruit Salad With Scented Pelargonium Leaves

Wed, 15 Jul 2009 10:58:43 -0400

This fruit salad is amazing, and all the more for the addition of bergamot leaves and flowers! The fragrant leaves of this versatile herb delicately flavour the syrup whilst the gorgeous shaggy red flowers and scented pelargonium leaves decorate it for the final finishing flourish! If you are a lover of Earl Gray tea, you will instantly recognise the flavour of this herb, as it is used to flavour this famous and popular tea blend. NOTE: Bergamot, often referred to as bee balm, became distinguished as "Oswego Tea" when a Quaker botanist, John Bartram, sampled a tea made from the leaves. A Bergamot lemon is a small yellow sour citrus fruit similar to an orange, mostly cultivated in Calabria in Italy. The rind contains an essential oil used in perfumery (the basis for eau-de-cologne), confectionary and Earl Grey tea. The zest is also used in pâtisserie. NB: Prep time includes cooling time. -- posted by French Tart

I serve it cold with thick yoghurt and passionfruit pulp, however others like it warm with ice-cream. It's totally up to you.

Chocolate-Orange Cake

Wed, 26 Aug 2009 10:23:57 -0400

I love this cake for several reasons. I love chocolate and orange together, I love cake in general, and sometimes I like to cook without eggs or other high-allergen foods just to keep my game up, although this cake does require yogurt so probably can't be made vegan . I found the original recipe on a blog by Shyamala Ramanathan-Edwards http://srefoodblog.blogspot.com/, who based her recipe on one from the eggless baking book by Cintia Stammers, published by the Bhaktivedanta Trust. Then I put chocolate in it. I have never made the orange-sultana (raisin) filling, instead using (eggless) orange curd such as http://www.recipezaar.com/fresh-orange-curd-357753 and/or chocolate ganache. -- posted by Shoga-chan

Gelatin Heavenly Hash (Jell-O Brand)

Sat, 09 Jan 2010 15:14:57 -0500

I bought a bunch of jello on sale and didn't know what to do with it. I discovered Favorite Recipes Jello Brand Fun and Fabulous Recipes, and oila! I used orange gelatin, but you can use whatever flavor you want. I also substituted blueberries for the crushed pineapple (I didn't have any). Next time I'd like to try this with real whipped cream. I used sour cream (I didn't try it with non-dairy whipped topping). Very tasty stuff and simple to make. Cook time excludes chill time. -- posted by AmyZoe

Crepes Suzette (Weight Watchers)

Fri, 15 Jan 2010 13:25:52 -0500

Just like Julia...if you liked the movie, you'll love the recipes. Weight Watchers has updated the beloved chef's timeless classics, keeping the French flavor, but trimming the fat. The original: 19 Points values - WW remake: 4 Points values. So why not serve a few of your favorites when you host a Julia-inspired Oscar fete this year? Bon appetit! Tip: If you want to prepare this dessert but skip the alcohol, substitute 1 Tbsp lemon juice for the liqueur and omit boiling the sauce in step 4. When you swirl in the butter in step 5, add the grated zest of 1/2 lemon. -- posted by Crafty Lady 13

Rab Torte (Rapska Torta)

Tue, 19 Jan 2010 17:31:56 -0500

It is believed that Rab Torte was served for the first time in 1177. when Pope Alexander III, escorted by his ten galleys, was overtaken by a storm as he was crossing the Adriatic, and took cover under the cliffs and in the harbors of Croatian island Rab (and town), and thus by a quirk of fate arrived in Rab just after the renovation of the Cathedral of the Assumption, which he consecrated on the occasion. In order to enhance this unexpected ceremony and to express their respect, nuns of the Benedict order served him cake on the host Rab cake. The original recipe for the first Rab cake is kept in the archives of the Benedictine abbey of St. Andrew on the southern coast of island Rab. I am posting the recipe of madam Dunja from Vilma Patisserie from town Rab. -- posted by nitko

Add a dish of chocolate truffles to serve along with the sorbet & you have a fancy, but simple, winter dessert." You can also add some smaller sprigs of rosemary for garnish. -- posted by Trnquilit
