Wiltshire Lardy Cake 0

Posted on October 24, 2007 by admin

1/2 lb Strong white bread flour

1 ts Easy-blend yeast

1/2 ts Salt

1/2 oz Melted lard

1/4 pt Warm water (or milk & water)

———————————TO
FINISH———————————
1/4 lb Pure pork lard;
diced

Lard for greasing the pan Cinnamon Allspice Demerara sugar
————————-MIX TOGETHER THE
FOLLOWING————————-
1 oz Sultanas; chopped

1 oz Raisins; chopped

1 oz Currents; chopped

1 oz Chopped candied peel

Using a food-mixer or processor or your hands, mix and knead the
dough.
Cover it with oiled polythene and leave to rise until
doubled in size; this will take about 1 hour in a warm place.
Knock
back the dough, knead it again briefly and roll out to an oblong.
Mix together 1-1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1 teaspoon ground
allspice and 2 ounces sugar and sprinkle half of this mixture over
the dough.
Add half the dried fruits and half the diced lard.
Roll
up the dough, like a swiss roll, give it a quarter turn and roll it
out to an oblong again.
Sprinkle with sugar and spices, dried
fruits and fat exactly as before.
Then roll up and roll out the
dough to an oblong once again, but this time make it the right size
to fit a shallow baking or roasting tin about 7-inches square.
Grease the tin and put the dough into it, pressing it well into the
corners.
Cover and leave to prove (rise) until the dough is light,
puffy and well risen.
Score the top of the dough with a diamond
pattern, brush with melted lard and sprinkle on 1 ounce of sugar.
Bake at 425 F (220 C) gas mark 7 until cooked to a golden brown and
smelling delicious, 35-40 minutes.
Cool the cake briefly in the tin
so that the melted fat is re-absorbed, then serve it while still
warm, cut into large sticky fingers.

Wiltshire Whitsun Cake 0

Posted on October 24, 2007 by admin

3/4 lb Sm.
tart green gooseberries

5 Elderflower blossoms*

1/2 lb Plain wholemeal flour

2 ts Baking powder

2 lg Eggs

6 oz Butter

6 oz Pale muscovado sugar

Demerara sugar Flowers & leaves to garnish *Note: A handful
of sweet geranium or lemon balm leaves may be substitued for
elderflower blossoms if desired.
Top and tail the gooseberries into
a mixing bowl.
Add the finely chopped leaves or the florets of
elderflower carefully stripped from the stalk, and stir to mix with
the fruit.
Sift the flour and baking powder into a separate bowl.
Cut then rub in the butter.
Stir in the muscovado sugar then the
lightly beaten eggs.
Finally, stir in the gooseberries and their
flavourings.
Grease the base of an 8-inch spring-clip cake tin,
line and grease again.
Turn the cake mixture into it and mound it
up in the middle.
Bake at 350 F (180 C) gas mark 4 for about 1 1/2
hours.
Unlike most cakes, this one does not come away from the
sides of the tin when it is cooked.
Cool for a few minutes before
unmoulding.
Sprinkle with demerara sugar and decorate with fresh
elder blossom or sweet geranium or melissa leaves, and serve the
deliciously moist cake while it is still warm – as a pudding, with
plenty of cream.

Yogurt Pancakes 0

Posted on October 24, 2007 by admin

5 lg Eggs

1 1/4 c Milk

8 oz Yogurt, plain

-(I use Dannon and -Knudsen; other brands -might require
different -amounts) 4 ts Baking powder

1/2 c Vegetable oil (or less

-for dieters; but use -at least 2 T) 2 1/3 c Flour, white
(measure

-carefully after sifting) 1 tb Sugar

1/2 ts Salt

Preheat griddle and oil very very lightly.
Separate the eggs;
beat the yolks in a bowl big enough to hold the whole recipe.
Add
the yogurt and beat again; add the milk and oil and beat again.
Rinse the eggbeater.
In a separate bowl, mix all the dry
ingredients (flour, baking powder, sugar and salt).
Sift together.
I use a flour sifter for this, but if you insist on measuring your
flour without sifting it, then you can try using a wire whip to
blend the dry ingredients.
Using a clean eggbeater, beat the egg
whites until they are fluffy.
Dump the dry ingredient mixture into
the big bowl containing the milk mixture, stir for about 2 seconds
just to get the dry ingredients under the surface of the liquid,
and then dump the beaten egg whites into the big bowl.
Now beat
this mixture lightly and slowly with a fork until it is more or
less uniform.
If you beat too much, or too fast, then it will get
gummy.
Don’t try to get rid of lumps.
Cook on the hot griddle.
NOTES: * Amazingly good baking-powder and yogurt pancakes — Cooks
like to show off by making fancy glamorous recipes to serve to
their friends by candle light.
Here is a simple ordinary recipe to
serve to your family for breakfast in the morning.
I love pancakes
and I make many varieties and I am an inveterate experimenter.
This
recipe is the one I have developed over the years to replace
buttermilk pancakes because I never have buttermilk on hand in the
refrigerator like my grandmother did.
I made this recipe this very
morning with blueberries in it.
I do have yogurt in my fridge,
though, and the yogurt can substitute for the buttermilk.
Yield:
Serves 4-6.
* I like to put fresh blueberries in these pancakes
after I pour them on the griddle.
Make sure that your maple syrup
is hot and that your butter is soft.
You can heat syrup in the
microwave or you can heat it by sticking the syrup jar in a pan of
boiling water.
* This same recipe also makes really good waffles if
you reduce the milk to about 1 cup, but if you are going to make
waffles, you shouldn’t cut back on the oil.
If you are dieting,
stick to pancakes.
: Difficulty: easy to moderate.
: Time: 10
minutes plus cooking time.
: Precision: measure carefully.
