:whistling:Eggplant Cooking Hints
(1) Do not cook in an aluminum pan. Aluminum makes eggplants discolor.
(2) The skin is edible in younger eggplants. Remove the peel in older eggplants.
3) Cut each fruit before using, just like bananas. The flesh of the fruit will brown.
4) Eggplant absorbs oil very easily; coat your eggplant with breadcrumbs, cornmeal or flour first before frying.
(5) To help reduce the bitter flavor in older eggplants, slice the eggplant into ½ inch pieces and salt heavily. Weigh down each slice in a colander and allow for the liquid to drain out of the eggplant for 30 minutes. Rinse each slice with cold water and pat dry. This method is called "dégorgeing". It is best to use this method before frying.
(6) In order to bake your eggplant, slice your eggplant in half. Score across the interior of each half. Add tiny slices of garlic to go into each score. Salt each half, and bake in a 400-degree oven for 30 minutes. The eggplant is done when it is nicely browned and tender when pierced.
(7) When wanting to roast your eggplant, cut your eggplant into 1/2 inch slices. Toss in olive oil, salt, pepper and any of the other suggested spices below. Arrange the eggplant in a single layer in a baking dish (not aluminum). Bake at 400 degrees for 30 minutes. The eggplant is done when it is nicely browned and tender when pierced.
Spices: Basil, chervil, cumin, garlic, mace, marjoram, nutmeg, oregano, parsley, sage, savory, sesame seed, tarragon, thyme
Equivalents / Substitutions: 1 pound = 3 1/2 cup diced raw = 1 3/4 cup diced cooked = 4 servings
Nutritional Values: Eggplants contain Vitamin C and Potassium. Other than these two nutrients, eggplants do not have a significant nutrient value. Eggplants also have anti-bacterial, diuretic effects, as well as flavonoids (cancer fighting anti-oxidants) . 1 cup cooked contains 25 calories.
Suggested Wines: Depending on how you fix your eggplant, try drinking a Chardonnay, a Grenache Rosé or a Zinfandel.

How To Make Powdered Sugar (Confectioner' s Sugar)
No need to pay a premium for powdered sugar when you can make it yourself.
Difficulty: Easy
Time Required: 15 minutes
Here's How:
Place a cup of granulated sugar in the blender for each cup of powdered sugar needed.
Blend at high speed until the sugar turns to powder.
Use immediately, or store in an air-tight container.
Tips:
To prevent caking and improve thickening ability (important when making icing), add 1-2 Tablespoons of corn starch for each cup of sugar made.
Sugar may etch your blender pitcher, particularly if it's made of plastic. If this is a concern, use a coffee grinder or spice grinder instead.
What You Need:
A blender
Measuring cups
Measuring spoons
Granulated sugar
Corn starch (optional)

Holiday Menu :VBGal2:
Herbs 'N Spices: A Holiday Menu
The following is a complete menu for a holiday open
House or buffet-add the appetizers I have recipes for
In Company's Coming below, or your own and you'll
Be set!
Savory Turkey with Dressing
Ingredients:
1 turkey, 12-14 lbs -- thawed if frozen
1/2 cup butter or margarine -- at room temperature
2 teaspoons dried thyme
1 teaspoon dried rosemary -- crushed
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon salt
Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Rinse and pat dry the
Inside and outside of the turkey with paper towels.
Remove the giblets, neck, and tailpiece. Combine the
Butter, herbs and salt in a small bowl. Carefully loosen
Skin from the breast of the turkey starting from neck. Turn
The turkey over and separate skin from the legs and thighs.
Spread 1/2 of butter mixture between skin and meat over
Breast, legs and thighs. Rub remaining butter mixture over
The turkey skin. Fill the turkey body and neck cavities with
Some of stuffing; truss if desired. Transfer remaining stuffing
To a buttered casserole dish and refrigerate until later. Place
Turkey on rack set in a roasting pan. Roast, basting with pan
Juices, until meat thermometer inserted into thickest part of
Thigh registers 180 degrees. This will take between three and
Four hours, depending on your oven. Place dish with stuffing
In oven 30 minutes before turkey is done. Let the turkey rest
15 minutes out of the oven before carving. NOTES: You can
Do this same thing with a bone-in turkey breast, except the
Stuffing will be cooked in a casserole dish, and the meat will
Take much less time. A good alternative if you don't want any
Leftovers or have only a few people for dinner.
Roasted Garlic Stuffing
Ingredients:
1 cup diced sweet onions
1 cup diced celery
1 cup diced tart apples
1/4 cup minced shallots
2 tablespoons butter

1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil
4 cups diced dried bread croutons
Salt and fresh ground pepper
In a large skillet over medium heat, sauté onions, celery, apples
And shallots in 2 tablespoons butter until tender. Add 2 cups
Chicken stock and simmer until liquid is reduced by half. Add
Garlic and herbs. Stir in croutons. Stuff turkey and bake extra
In a buttered baking dish and bake for 20-30 minutes until
Golden brown on top.
Notes: Garlic Puree is made by cutting off the very top of a
Whole garlic bulb and roasting in a 350 degree oven after it's
Been wrapped loosely in foil for 20 minutes or until it's soft.
Cool enough to handle and push down the bulb to squeeze
The garlic out of the cloves. Mash and use.
Serving Directions: You may remove the dressing and serve
In a bowl on the buffet next to the sliced turkey and the gravy,
Or leave whole and place all on a very large platter and assign
Someone the duty of carving and serving to the guests. Either
Way is fine.
