Homemade Tomato Sauce Recipe from The Spruce Eats
Homemade Tomato Sauce Recipe Written by Elaine Lemm, The Spruce Eats Updated 08/18/19 Total: 2 hrs Prep: 30 mins Cook: 90 mins This tomato sauce recipe is by far the best tomato sauce recipe I have ever made. The sauce may be a little more fiddly than some with quite a lot of preparation, but the results are worth it, a thick chunky deep-flavored sauce. The richness of the finished sauce makes it perfect for freezing, and the sauce makes a hearty base for soups (by just adding a good stock), with no addition, a fabulous sauce for pasta, grilled meats and fish. The sauce when sieved thoroughly gives a silky tomato coulis creating a more sophisticated sauce as above. One of my favourite ways to make this sauce last is to bottle it. So lovely to then open a jar in the middle of winter and be reminded of summer sunshine. This recipe can be made with fresh tomatoes, but they need to be super fresh and tasty, probably the ones you can find on the market in summer. If your tomatoes are not that fresh or bursting with the scents of summer, then use tinned. Tinned will always be preferable to anything which is less than the best. Ingredients 1 medium celery stalk 1 medium carrot, peeled 1 small onion 1 clove garlic 1lb 10 oz/750g fresh tomatoes, skin on, roughly chopped into large pieces (see note above) 1 cup/large handful flat-leaf parsley 1 cup/large handful basil leaves 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil 2 tbsp unsalted butter This tomato sauce recipe makes 1? lbs/ 700g of finished sauce. Gather the ingredients. Chop the celery, carrot, onion and garlic into tiny pieces (1/8 inch/ 3mm), roughly all the same size. Place the tomato pieces or tinned tomatoes into a large casserole. Place the carrot, then the celery, the onion, garlic and finally the parsley and basil on the top followed by the olive oil and cook for 1? hours, on a medium heat with minimum stirring or by shaking the pan to prevent it from sticking, and even worse, burning. To check the sauce is cooked, test a piece of the carrot and see if it is tender. If not cook a little longer. If the sauce is becoming dry, it is alright to add a little water and a dash of olive oil. Put the contents through a food mill, (or if you don't have one use a food processor but do not over blend, the sauce should be thick and quite chunky, and you should be able to see tiny bits of the vegetables within the thick sauce). Add the butter and reduce further until the sauce has thickened slightly usually about 10 minutes. Leave to cool. Freeze the concentrated sauce in small batches My favourite recipe using this sauce is a tomato tart, once you have made the sauce most of the work for the tart is done. -- Ginny Butterfield Cranberry Twp, Pa

Amish Recipes -- FREDA YODER'S SAUSAGE CASSEROLE AND FREDA YODER'S CREAM PIE
https://www.amish365.com/amish-cooking/ AMISH COOKING.... Published: Oct 25, 2012 · Updated: Oct 25, 2012 by Kevin Freda Yoder is the wife of an Amish bishop in Inola, Oklahoma, a small, somewhat progressive Amish settlement that is part of the larger community of Chouteau. I first came into contact with Freda when working on our cookbook, Amish Cooks Across America. Chouteau's Amish community is the largest and oldest in the Sooner State, a place that has had a small Amish presence for years. I recently received a copy of Freda's own cookbook (which she wasn't shy in promoting to me:). I'm not in the habit of promoting the cookbooks of others, but I thought it would be fun for a change. Her book is entitled simply "Home Cookin" from The Amish Church of Chouteau, Oklahoma. Freda's cookbook is a compilation of recipes from the community and in many ways it is a typical softcover Amish style packed with hundreds of recipes, many of them for old-favorites like monster cookies, cinnamon rolls, and soft pretzels. There are some recipes that made me chuckle, as in "how did this find it's way into an Amish cookbook?", namely the "Red Lobster cheese biscuits" and recipe for "Red Lobster cheddary bay biscuits." Someone there obviously has a taste for the seafood lover in them. Oklahoma is situated in a prime position to catch the wave of Hispanic culinary influence infusing itself into Amish cooking and that is reflected in the cookbook. Recipes like chicken fajita pizza, taco skillet meal, Mexican chicken lasagna, southwest chicken rice casserole, and cheesy enchiladas.appear alongside traditional Amish favorites like potato haystacks, grilled pork chops, and dairy casserole. Also, true to Oklahoma's culinary tradition as a haven for amazing barbecue, the book is packed with a lot of great-sounding barbecue recipes. Some of the recipes have massive ingredient quantities (40 pounds of potatoes in one recipe!), but those are needed at large Amish church gatherings. Most of the recipes are geared towards smaller crowds, thankfully. A few recipes are really spare on instructions, but that is some of the fun of Amish cooking. Here are a couple of recipes from the book: SAUSAGE CASSEROLE 3 pounds sausage, crumbled 8 large potatoes 2 quarts peas 2 small onions 1 tablespoon salt 1 teaspoon pepper 2 cans cream of mushroom soup 4 cans water 1 cup grated cheese Brown sausage and onions in a frying pan. Peel and slice potatoes thinly. Put the meat and vegetables in a roaster. Mix soup and water with salt and pepper and pour over the meat and vegetable mixture. Top with cheese. Bake at 350 for 1 hour covered and then uncover and bake 1 more hour until the potatoes are done. OLD-FASHIONED CREAM PIE 2 cups cream 1 /2 cup flour 1 cup sugar Mix the sugar and flour, then add cream. Beat well. Bake in an unbaked pie crust at 350 until firm. -- Ginny Butterfield Cranberry Twp, Pa

Add the sugar; mix well. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in the anise extract. Sift or whisk together flour, baking powder and salt. Add to creamed mixture gradually. If the dough is too sticky to roll in the palm of your hand, add flour until firmer, but it should be very soft. Roll dough in small balls (these tend to really puff up with all the baking powder in them!) and place on ungreased cookie sheets. Bake @ 375 degrees for 8-10 minutes (the bottom should be lightly browned but the tops should remain light). Remove cookies to wire rack and cool completely before glazing. Amanda’s notes: Next time I will be more careful with the flour, I think I added a bit too much. The tops of my cookies cracked. I also used my cookie scoop and filled it half way, which seemed to work pretty well. Glaze: Mix milk GRADUALLY into confectioners’ sugar to make a thick glaze… make sure to keep it on the thick side. Dip top of each cookie into glaze. Sprinkle with colored jimmies or nonpareils while glaze is still wet. I usually dip 10-12 cookies, return them to the wire rack (with wax paper under the racks to aid in clean up!) and then sprinkle those cookies before starting to dip more. Amanda’s notes: I dipped and sprinkled 5 at a time, that seemed to be the magic number before the glaze would start to harden. Expert Tips & FAQs You can substitute 1 tsp. vanilla and 1 tsp. almond extract for the anisette if you really don't like licorice flavor. Makes a lot of cookies, depending on how large you roll them.

Instant Pot Split Pea Soup with Ham (with instructions for stove top or slow cooker)
Instant Pot Split Pea Soup with Ham from https://www.bowlofdelicious.com/instant-pot-split-pea-soup-ham-bone/ 4.97 from 417 votes This Instant Pot Split Pea Soup is made with a leftover ham bone (or any ham you have), for a super easy, freezable weeknight meal! The pressure cooker cuts the cooking time in half. Prep Time10 mins Cook Time15 mins Time to pressurize and depressurize25 mins Total Time50 mins Course: Soup Cuisine: American Servings: 8 servings Calories: 307kcal Author: Elizabeth Lindemann Ingredients 3 tablespoons butter 1 onion diced 2 ribs celery diced 2 carrots diced 1 ham bone a smoked ham hock or 6 oz. diced deli ham can also be used 1 lb. dry split peas sorted through and rinsed 6 cups chicken stock/broth or veggie stock, water, or a mixture 2 bay leaves kosher salt and black pepper chopped fresh parsley for garnish, optional Instructions Turn pressure cooker to the "sauté" setting. Melt butter (3 tablespoons) and sauté onion, celery, and carrots, seasoned with salt and pepper to taste, for about 5 minutes, until softened. Add the split peas, chicken stock (6 cups), ham bone (or hock or 6 oz. diced cooked ham), and the 2 bay leaves. Cover pressure cooker and set to manual, high pressure for 15 minutes. Allow the pressure to naturally release for 10-15 minutes. Then, quick release the pressure valve. If you used a ham bone or hock: remove the it from the soup and remove the ham meat that's still attached to it. Add the ham meat back into the soup. Taste and adjust seasonings if necessary. Serve immediately, or store in your refrigerator for up to 1 week or freezer in an airtight container for up to 6 months. Notes If you want to use a frozen ham bone, you shouldn't need to adjust the cooking time, since ham bones are technically already cooked, you're just reheating it! Keep in mind though, the colder your ingredients are, the longer it will take to come to pressure. For a vegetarian version, omit the ham, use more salt and pepper, and make sure to use vegetable stock or water instead of chicken. For a vegan version, use olive oil instead of butter. If you don't eat pork, you can substitute the ham bone for a smoked turkey leg. To make this in your slow cooker, add all ingredients (omitting the butter) to slow cooker and cook on low for 8 hours or high for 4 hours, or until split peas are cooked to desired tenderness. To make this on your stovetop, sauté veggies as instructed in a large pot. After adding the remaining ingredients, bring to a boil, cover, and simmer for approximately one hour (or until split peas are cooked to desired tenderness). Ham usually comes cured/smoked, which means it's cooked and ready to eat. However, sometimes stores sell "fresh ham," which means it's uncooked. Do NOT use fresh ham for this recipe- use already cooked, smoked, and/or cured ham. This soup will likely thicken once it cools and is refrigerated, especially if you use a ham bone to make it because of the gelatin. Thin out with water and adjust seasonings as necessary. I made this recipe in my 6 qt. Instant pot. It should work the same in an 8 qt., but you may need to cut the ingredients in half for a 3 qt. mini. You should also be able to double the batch in an 8 quart pressure cooker.

Have a safe and Happy Halloween
Have a safe and Happy Halloween Everyone! We did buy candy for the day for the kids but after looking at the township guidelines we decided against giving out candy this year. Township suggested folks sit outdoors in masks... way too cold for that. With the risk of virus and really thinking we would get few if any kids, we decided to forgo passing out candy. Hope you all have a safe and happy day! Ginny -- Ginny Butterfield Cranberry Twp, Pa
