Family Recipes
Hello Everyone. This is a rather long post, but I thought that these should be where everyone can get at them. I'm not quite sure of my transcription on a few of these (especially the Chocolate Peanut Butter Balls of Death. I have tried that recipe, and it's good, but I'm not sure that it's the same one that Mandy used), so feel free to correct me. Sorry that I didn't bake them all and take pictures to go with; that will have to come later.

Oh and a useful recipe to have in case you eat too much raw cookie dough:
Oral Rehydration Drink
1 quart water (950 ml)
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
3-4 tablespoons sugar
bit of lemon or orange juice to make palatable
Do you know what recipe I want? Beef Stroganoff. Also, Linguine with clam sauce.
Mom, could you post the recipes for Toots Davis hot rolls, Linguine with Clam Sauce, Shepherds Pie, and Beef Stroganoff?
Okay,
Linguini wth Clam Sauce?
Beef Stroganoff?
Shephard's Pie?
I think that a haze of chilhood induced romanticism has affected yor palette's memory. Those are "end of a long day, what shall we eat recipes." I guess that has value, so here goes:
Linguini with Clam Sauce:
Start with:
Good bit of olive oil and 1/3-1/2 stick of butter (depeding on how hunry you are) in a large sauce pan
Add:
*Lots of garlic (what ever your taste dictates- I use 6-10 little cloves-maybe 1/2 a bulb.
*1 can of diced clams (more if you can afford it- fresh if you can get them- never done it but if I did I would want an expert like Matt to handle them b/c I wouldn't want to ruin them)
*Lots of vegetables that you might have in the fridge or garden that don't get mushy- chop them up so as to be pretty small but not miniscule.
Cook this pretty hot- just get the veggies hot and tender.
Take off the heat and add lots of parmesan cheese- what you can afford.
Serve on hot, not overly cooked linguini (or generic spaghetti- again your pocket book needs to be attended to).
Have it with the 5# bag of flour french bread and a good salad from the garden if it is summer time. If it isn't summer or if your garden is just too unweeded or uncooperative just rely on the old standby- the $2.99 cent bag of hermetcally sealed fresh spinach and a few radishes and green onions- these are always cheap and deliciousy bitey.
I need to get to other things right now- but I will give you those other recipes later in the day.
Hey Matt, can you post your recipe for shrimp tacos and tell us what you do with mussels? Also your pizza dough (man, it's good)is something that I am not confident about recreating but can you give that one too?
Madie and John, can you give us the recipe for yor fantastic mushroom ravioli?
Hey guys, sorry for the misspellings- my key board (when it is not using Word) randomnly misses letters and I was in a hurry and did not proof read well.
