Mom's Cinnamon Rolls

I think this is the kids' favorite thing that I make.
I would make a lot at one time, in pie pans and everyone wanted the middle! We had these every Christmas morning.

In a large bowl combine:

2/3 C powdered milk
1 C sugar
2 squares margarine
2 C boiling water

Soften 3 T yeast in 1 C warm water and let sit a couple of minutes

Add yeast to 6 beaten eggs, than add to milk mixture

Add 1 T salt

Sift enough flour into milk mixture to make a soft dough. Beat thoroughly. Turn out onto floured board and knead barely enough so that it can be handled. (very soft)

Place in a greased (oil) bowl. Grease the top of the dough.
Cover and let rise tll double (about 30 min)

divide the dough into 2 parts. Let one part sit while you roll the other

Roll onto counter into a rectangle shape ; about 1/2 in thick (no more)
brush on butter, then sprinkle on brown or white sugar, then cinnamon.
Roll up and cut into 1 inch rolls

I always used oiled round pie tins because when I've used a cookie sheet or cake pan, the inside ones are undercooked. Each tin fits about 7 rolls. The rolls should barely touch each other so that ther is enough room to rise. Put in a warm place to rise.

350 20-25 min ....Drizzle with thin frosting after they come out.

Frosting: cream some butter, add a couple drops of vanilla, and a good amount of pd sugar. Add milk to desired consistency.

When roast is finished, set oven, at 425. Deglaze the pan, pour 1/4 c of the pan drippings into roasting pan. Don’t use it all because you still need some to make gravy.

Cheese Fondue

The original name of the recipe is Carnaby Street Cook-in...very 60's. This was one of the first things I ever cooked. We cooked it in Home Ec in High School. I made it a lot when we were first married, but Dad wasn't a big fan so I stopped making it. Dad and I once ordered cheese fondue in Switzerland...I hated it. It was full of white wine or something. I still love my little recipe the best.

1 can Cheddar cheese soup (undiluted)
6 oz or about 6 slices of Swiss cheese, cut in cubes or torn slces
1 medium clove garlic. minced or crushed (today I would use 1/2 ts of wet minced garlic.

French bread cubed.

In a saucepan combine all ingredients (Not the bread) Heat slowly till cheese melts.

This is good served with hot cider

Grandma's Dutch tomato soup

This about as Dutch as a recipe can be. Grandma made this all the time! It's a great winter soup along with a grilled cheese sandwich and some fruit.

Take a pound or so of lean ground beef, season with salt, pepper and nutmeg.
Form small balls approx 1/2 in in diameter
drop these into abt 2 qts of hot water in a big soup pot

Add 1/2 chopped onion and simmer abt 20 min.

then add 1 6.oz can tomato paste
Add a little chopped parsley, salt and pepper, nutmeg and some beef bouillon of some kind.

Season by taste

French Onion Soup

This recipe makes all others taste inferior

Use individual oven proof bowls

4 cups thinly sliced Bermuda or any sweet onion
1 # Gruyere Swiss cheese
3 T butter
10 C light beef stock (I use Campbell's beef broth soup) add a little water to this to make it light.
1 clove garlic chopped fine (I use a ts of wet minced garlic)
1 ts salt add a bit at a time to taste
1 ts black pepper (to taste)
several slices of thinly cut toasted French bread

Brown the onions in the butter over medium heat.
Stir in the stock, garlic, salt and pepper .
Bring to a boil and simmer for 20 min

Place several slices of toasted bread in each bowl.
Add the soup slowly to give the bread time to absorb.
Fill almost to the top. This is so the cheese does not sink into the bowl.
Sprinkle the grated cheese on top, (a good 1/2 cup loose) without pushing it into the liquid.
Press the cheese around the edges of each bowl so that when it melts it sticks to the sides and forms a crust.

Place the bowls on a cookie sheet and cook at 400 for about 30 min. Serve right away.
Put any extras in the fridge. They warm up pretty well.

Caprese Paninis

This is my favorite way to make these sandwiches! Soooo good! and fast The photo shows a sandwich before it is pressed and all warm and melty!

1 baquette
bottle of basil pesto (from grocery store)
tomato
fresh mozzarella (the kind that is in a ball and packed in water)

Slather the roll with pesto, then add the tomato and a thick slice of the cheese.
Brush the roll with a little olive oil on both sides and press with the panini maker (or a wrapped brick)

Caprese Sandwiches

1 loaf ciabatta bread
1 small jar basil pesto or make your own
2 large tomatoes (fresh from the garden has the most flavor)
1 pkg. mozzarella slices

*Cut loaf of bread in 3 inch sections and then cut those in half. Place on cookie sheet, face up. Spread pesto on each slice of bread. Place 2 slices of tomato and some mozzarella on top. Broil in oven until cheese is melted and gets a little golden.

*The original recipe says to make these into sandwiches, with bread on top, and then grill them in a pan with a little olive oil, like a grilled cheese. You can place a heavy pan on the sandwich while grilling to make it flatter or use a panini maker.

2 T olive oil
1/4 cup cooking white wine
2 T drained capers
juice from one lemon
1 T butter (real)

Heat olive oil in skillet. Add chicken or salmon. Do not overlap. Brown on each side till cooked through. Set aside in a warm oven.

Sauce:
Heat the skillet on medium. Add the wine and reduce for 1or 2 minutes, stirring to scrape the bits off. Stir in the capers and the lemon juice. Remove from heat and add the butter, stirring until melted. Salt and pepper to taste. Pour the sauce over the chicken and serve.
