Does anyone know of any lactose free recipes that don’t have tofu in them?
Filed Under Other - Food & Drink | 5 Comments
se asked:
I am lactose intorant and I am looking for recipes for things such as cheese, icecream, cheese spreads, cream cheese, whitesauces, icecream toppings, whipped cream, yogurt, etc that are lactose free. Also I am looking where to find already made products in stores that actually taste good and are not too expensive if you can. Also, I don’t like the taste of tofu/soy cheese and am wondering how cheese made with yeast (I saw it online) tastes and if it is better than soy/tofu cheeses. Any of this info would be great and I would love an answer answering all of this. Also, anyone know if there are lactose-intorent recipe books or sites and where I can get them? Also, anyone know any drinks made with nondairy (shakes etc).? Another delima I have with all this is that it many recipes are highly fatting..i need more of a happy medium and some lower fat ones too.

Pork Split Pea Soup and Potato Soup, Two Old Fashion Recipes From the Midwest
Filed Under Uncategorized | Leave a Comment
Linda Wilson asked:
In my opinion, one of the best places to get really good recipes is from the local churches and other local organizations cookbooks. When the best cooks in a community come together and share their recipes, it is always a treasure trove of mouth-watering results. So, needless to say, I have many such books in my vintage collection. This Pork Split Pea Soup recipe was found in a church cookbook from Waterloo, Iowa. I have never been to Iowa but was born and raised close by in Indiana. Since both states are farm states and have a lot in common, I grabbed this old cookbook when I got the chance. I felt sure it would be full of good recipes and I have not been disappointed. The potato soup is from an old grocery store in the midwest that gave away recipe cards. Most of their recipe cards featured quick, easy, and economical recipes. This soup is no exception. If you like soup, if you are looking for quick and easy recipes, if you are looking for ways to feed your family economically, here are some old-time recipes to add to your files.
POTATO SOUP
This recipe is another grocery store give-away recipe.
6 med potatoes, peeled and cubed
1 small onion, chopped
1 stalk celery, chopped
1 tsp seasoned salt
Dash of pepper
1 tbsp parsley flakes
4 cups water
2 cups milk
3 tbsp margarine
Combine potatoes, onion, celery, salt, pepper, parsley, and water in a pot and bring to a boil. Cook for 20-25 minutes until potatoes are tender. Reduce heat and add milk and margarine. Cook until heated through. Serve hot.
PORK SPLIT PEA SOUP
1 lb dry green split peas (2 cups)
8 cups cold water
1 cup chopped onion
1/2 cup chopped celery
1 1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp dried marjoram, crushed
1/4 tsp pepper
1 lb ground pork
3/4 tsp sage
1/2 tsp salt
1/8 tsp pepper
3 med potatoes, peeled and diced
Rinse split peas. In a large kettle or Dutch oven combine split peas, cold water, onion, celery, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, marjoram, and 1/4 tsp pepper. Bring to a boil, cover and simmer till peas are tender, about 1 hour. Do not drain. Meanwhile, combine ground pork, sage, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Mix thoroughly. Shape into twenty-four one-inch balls. Drop balls and potatoes into soup mixture; return to boiling. Cover, simmer 20 minutes longer. Season to taste if needed.
Serves 10 to 12
Enjoy!

Sushi Recipe

Eugene Yeng Aik Ngin asked:
Sushi is a delicious, healthy and easy to prepare food. Deciding on and finding your ingredients, preparing the beautiful presentation, and enjoying your creation are all part of the fun of sushi. Finding a great sushi recipe is the first step in putting together a wonderful meal.
Sushi, traditionally, refers to rice, but it has developed to include the whole concept of the finger food. It commonly is a fish or vegetable, served with vinegar rice. A sushi recipe can be presented in several ways. Some common ways are wrapped in seaweed, served in a bowl, in bite size pieces or in a cone type wrap. Wide ranges of vegetables, seafood, and shellfish are used throughout a sushi recipe.
There are some common ingredients that you should always have on hand to prepare a good sushi recipe. These include seaweed, called nori, rice, and sushi vinegar. These are the base ingredients you will need to start with for any sushi recipe. Several sauces such as soy sauce, and wasabi; a spicy paste like substance, are commonly served with sushi to enhance the flavor. Common vegetables in a sushi recipe include carrots, cucumber, peppers, and avocado. Common seafood used in sushi recipes are crab, salmon, octopus, and shrimp. This is by no means an exhaustive list of what you can use in your sushi recipe. The sky is the limit. Get creative as you like with your sushi recipe.
Where can you find a good sushi recipe? There are several great places where you can find a good sushi recipe. A great place to start is the Internet. By doing a quick search through a search engine for sushi recipe, you can find some great websites that will provide you with a great sushi recipe. Often, they will provide you with detailed pictures and instructions that can help when preparing your sushi recipe. Also, try bookstores for their cookbook selections or local sushi restaurants to see if they will share their sushi recipe.
There are several pieces of kitchen equipment that can help you in preparing a sushi recipe. One of the most important pieces of equipment is a sharp knife. A sharp knife is essential in cutting and preparing the ingredients for your sushi recipe. It will allow you to cut your fish into thin slices, slice vegetables into attractive shapes and designs, and do all of these with ease. Another very helpful piece of equipment is a bamboo mat, traditionally called sushimaki sudare or makisu. This mat is what you use when you roll your sushi such as in a California roll. It is possible to roll with your hands, but the rice can be very sticky, so the mat can help eliminate a little frustration while preparing your sushi recipe. Other equipment such as rice cookers and sushi presses can also help make the preparation quicker, but they are not essential for preparing a good sushi recipe.
A final touch in the presentation of your sushi recipe is the plates and dishes you serve them on and the utensils that you use to eat them. Patterned china dishes, saucers, and cups are a beautiful touch. You can also use matching dispensers for items such as soy sauce. Often, chopsticks are used when eating sushi. Chopsticks come in all styles from wooded to metal and can complement your presentation beautifully. You can also eat sushi with your fingers, so make sure to have some nice matching napkins with the dishes.
It is easy to find the ingredients you need to complete your sushi recipe. Sushi recipes generally use basic ingredients that can be found easily. Many of the ingredients, if not all, can be purchased at most local grocery stores. If your grocery store does not carry what you need, try asking them to bring it in. Many companies will bring in supplies that are requested by their customers. For more complicated recipes that require special ingredients, many Asian specialty stores carry the more obscure ingredients on a regular basis. These stores can provide hard to find sushi recipe ingredients, often directly from Asian suppliers. A final option for finding your sushi recipe ingredients is online. There are countless websites that you can use to order everything from your good ingredients to equipment to finishing touches such as utensils.
Sushi is a wonderful food style. It’s fun to follow a sushi recipe and see your final result. Many people consider preparing a sushi recipe an art form. It can be an exciting addition to your family dinner or an impressive dinner party concept. With a great sushi recipe, you can make out standing delicacies. It can be a great bonding event; gather the family together and everyone can make their own sushi dish. Grab your sushi recipe, your ingredients, your equipment, and have some fun.

Does anyone know of a cookbook that contains 100% Dairy free, Wheat free and Sugar free recipes?
Filed Under Diet & Fitness | 2 Comments
newmommie asked:
I’ve been suffering from chronic headaches and fatigue lately and it seems to be getting worse. I’ve discussed these issues with my doctor and he ran some tests and all came back normal. So for the headaches all he did was recommend that I try a night gaurd / mouth guard and he didn’t address the fatigue issue. I’ve tried the mouth guard for almost a month but it hasn’t helped at all. The reason I asked about a cookbook that’s got recipes that are 100% dairy, wheat and sugar free is because I recently read an article in Health and Wellness magazine about a lady who had been experiencing headaches, fatigue and chronic neck and shoulder pain and how by changing her diet by cutting out all dairy, wheat and sugar, those symptoms went away. And according to the article, this happened after only a week of her being on the dairy, wheat and sugar free diet. So does anyone follow a diet like this and are their any cookbooks you can recommend that will help maintain a diet as strict as this?
