Tuesday, February 8th, 2005
Recipe : Beaten Biscuits
Procedure :

6 cups All-purpose flour

1 1/2 teaspoons Salt

1 tablespoon Sugar

1 teaspoon Baking powder

1 cup Shortening

1 cup Milk

Mix the flour, salt, sugar, and baking powder in a bowl or in a food processor fitted with a metal blade. Add the shortening and cut in or process until the mixture is the consistency of coarse meal. Pour in the milk and stir or process just until the dough holds together. If it is dry or crumbly, add more milk. If it is too wet, add more flour. Knead briefly in the food processor, then turn out onto a floured board or beat 1,001 times with a rolling pin. when it’s ready, the dough should “snap” when you hit it. Fold the dough in half. Roll out the folded dough until it is 1/2 inch thick. Cut with a 1-1/4-inch biscuit cutter into small rounds. Prick each round with a fork, making two parallel sets of holes in the biscuit. keep rolling out the dough, folding before cutting, until all the scraps are gone and you have made about 100 biscuits. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Place the biscuits on a lightly greased pan. Bake for 30 minutes, until crisp, but not browned. They should open easily when split with a fork. They will keep for weeks tightly covered in a tin or in the freezer. Split in two before serving. From Nathalie Dupree’s “New Southern Cooking”

Applesauce Cake In Jars

Tuesday, February 8th, 2005
Recipe : Applesauce Cake In Jars
Procedure :

ELLIE COLLIN CMKD93F 1/2 tsp BAKING POWDER

2/3 c SHORTENING

2 tsp BAKING SODA

2 2/3 c GRANULATED SUGAR

1 1/2 tsp SALT

4 ea Large EGGS

1 tsp GROUND CINNAMON

2 c APPLESAUCE

2 tsp GROUND CLOVES

2/3 c WATER

2/3 c NUTS; chopped — optional

3 1/3 c ALL-PURPOSE FLOUR — sifted

Sterilize 8 (12 oz Ball Quilted Crystal – #14400-81400) canning jars, lids and r ings by boiling for 10 minutes. Remove the jars and allow to air-dry and cool. L eave the lids and rings in the hot water until ready to use. Once the jars are cool enough to handle, grease them (use a pastry brush) with s hortening (DO NOT use Pam or Baker’s Secret); set aside. Cream together the shor tening and sugar. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, until the mixture is light an d fluffy. Add the applesauce and water; set aside. In another bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinn amon and cloves. Blend dry ingredients into the applesauce mixture. Fold in the nuts. Pour batter into the jars, filling them about 1/2 full. Place jars onto a cookie sheet or they’ll fall over. Bake in a preheated 325-deg ree oven for 35-40 minutes or until a pick inserted deep into the center of eac h cake comes out clean. Remove jars from the oven, one-at-a-time (use HEAVY-DUT Y MITTS, the jars ARE HOT!); place a lid, then a ring on top and screw down tig htly. Place jars onto your counter top to cool. You’ll know when the jars have sealed, you’ll hear a “plinking” sound. If you missed the sound, test them by pressing down on the lids once the jars have cooled–they shouldn’t move at all. Store jars in a cool, dry place. They should keep for about a year. I’ve only be en able to keep them for a few weeks, they don’t last that long around here. The y’re wonderful for last minute gifts, especially for single friends.
