03-27 Jessie's Multi Grain Bread

Feel free to halve this recipe it makes a lot.
You need 9-10 C Grains, but you use half at a time.
The grains can be in any combination or without one of them.
This is the bread we ate with the amazing soup.

Mix together grains:
(5 whole wheat flour, 1 c oats & ¾ c flax seeds processed in blender, 3 c white flour)
Put half of the grains (5 c) in large mixing bowl with:
2-3 T yeast
½ c nonfat dry milk
Combine and add and mix 1-2 minutes:
3 c warm water
2/3 c canola oil
½ cup agave nectar or honey
Let rest 10 minutes for yeast to sponge. Then add:
4 large eggs
4 t salt
Add remaining
5 c flour, a little at a time
until dough starts to pull away from sides of bowl.
Knead with countertop mixer or by hand for 5-6 minutes until dough is very soft.
It will still be sticky but stiff enough to shape into a loaf.
Bake or cover tightly and store in refrigerator up to two days.

Lightly oil hands and shape into rolls or loaves.
Let rise until very light (almost doubled in size).
Bake on pizza stone or silpat for best results.
Bake: 350˚ 18-25 minutes according to the size of your loaf

Sprinkle grains on top of loaf.
Or slit diagonal for oo la la.
If you want a crunchy outer layer, spray with water every 5 minutes or so during baking.

Spiced pumpkin chocolate chip cookies

Now that it is officially Fall, it's time for pumpkin cookies again :)   Dad's pumpkin cookies are delicious. Best way to describe the difference between them is that these are more spice than pumpkin. I like them both but sometimes prefer this spice version. I don't like using prepared pumpkin pie spice, it seems to change the flavor for me (I wonder if it's the amount of cloves?). This recipe hits the spice just right but of course alter as you like, it can take even handle more or less chocolate chips in it, or none at all.  In medium mixing bowl, mix dry ingredients together:  2 c flour 2 t baking powder 3/4 t baking soda 1 1/2 - 2 t cinnamon 1/2 t ginger 1/2 t nutmeg 1/8 t cloves 1/2 t salt In small mixing bowl beat together : 1/2 c sugar 1/2 c brown sugar, packed 1/2 canola oil 1 egg 1 t vanilla paste Then add:  240g pumpkin purée, ( about a small can if not using fresh) When blended well, add the pumpkin mix into the the dry mixture. Barely blend the two ...

Nicola's Fisk

 Cousins in Sweden served a fish meal that B really liked!  [That is a huge compliment as it's not her favorite protein.]  Nic makes it without a recipe so this is a general guide.  Layer a casserole with a bed of zucchini slices and add a layer cod pieces . Mix chopped flat leaf parsley (handful), softened butter (abt. 2 T), horseradish sauce (abt. 1 T) with a brick (8 oz) of cream cheese.  {It is easier if the ingredients are room temperature} Cover fish with sauce and bake for about 25 minutes at about 325-350 degrees [Swedish measurements are not equivalent]  Thin sauce with milk if needed. Serve with new baby potatoes baked in butter and dill and salt.

10-01 Pumpkin Apple Stew

This is SO delicious and definitely gives you the "fall" experience. The sweetness of the apple cider and apples play off the pumpkin and all that's missing is a hayride or carving pumpkins afterward. Its perfect for a cold, miserable day or even if you are just chilled. It takes a bit of time but is so worth it! Its very flexible -try substituting different veggies or cooking it in the crock pot. This recipe serves about 5 but is easily doubled for more company. Put your dutch oven or heaviest pot on the stove top to heat up. In a baggie or in a mixing bowl, mix together: 1 1/2 T flour 1 t fennel seeds, crushed 1/2 t salt 1/4 t pepper Then add in 1 lb boneless pork, cubed about 1" or smaller Stir or shake to coat pork well. Drizzle your hot pan with a bit of olive oil Add the coated pork and 1 onion, sliced thinly Sauté the onions and pork until the onions soften and the pork is brown on all sides, stirring gently occasionally to get all sides. ...
