What recipes are you looking for?

Pssssss I can cook and bake-I just dont want to.
It wrestling season now-so we dont eat much-cuz Teig has to cut weight every week!

Hey Baa, could it have been Sweet potatoes? aka Yams??
the orange description made me think of Yams!!

Wind--- How about a recipe for 7 layer salad??

Thanks Jim, and what recipe would you like?

djm906 your welcome and I do believe I have heard of a candied orange, not sure if it was the peel but I will be checking for you. I am glad that you found the recipes that you wanted there plus a few extra's.

Baa I think I know what your talking about, I think it is the same thing that djm is talking about only with small chuncks of oranges.
I have some old cook books from the 1950's that might have some of these recipes, I'll let you know tomorrow evening.

thanks so much for the link to the white cake, I've gotten 3 recipes for this now, and I'm so excited!!! it's very sweet of you to think of us like this:)

We use to make candied orange peel - it was quite a treat, we loved it as children, and it had been so long since I had had it, then mother in law who cant bear to throw much out, started making orange marmalade when she ate an orange, then onto candied peel, there's only so much orange marmalade you can keep around.... she just boils them in a sugar water syrup, I use to have a recipe, I'll try to look for it.

Wind thanks for the friendship bread, havent looked at the link yet, but just wanted to thank you for the link. I made some last year from a started that was given to me, and kept making it every ten days cause I liked it so much.

Pebble your welcome.

Windsuffer

Nothing to forgive ,windsurffer,now my delima is which do I choose.whose going to help me eat all this! just in time too! we're getting our second cold snap/freeze..bbbrrr...

Baa I am not sure what recipe your looking for but I don't think that I have any for yams that has a clear sauce, I am sorry but! in the event that I run into one I will let you know.

Oh my goodness tink no worries about help eating all that wonderful food, my OB will eat,and snack you out of house and home...please believe me that boy is a PIG pig(said the way it's stated in Animal House). I will of course have to test it out just to make sure that you didn't forget anything lol. That means everything you cook, I will be the food inspector, if I happened to eat up all of one dish then it's just because I wanted to be sure and not that I am bloody greedy lol. After all I have a reputation to protect and can't let it be known that I am also a P.I.G.
In my case the P.I.G. stands for Person Investingating Gourmae cooking, (hope I spelled that right)lol

I am sorry that I have to post so many links in different post but for some unknown reason I can't post two links in the same message. I don't want to give up my computer until after Christmas so I will just have to do the best I can and thank you for understanding,especially Dave.

I just want to let you know I have only begun to check out the hyperlink you gave me. I will be there forever. so many other links within. all of you looking for something should check it out. has lots of christmas recipes. Windsurffer! have you gone through all the sites listed? wow!Thank you,so much.talk about your southern recipes,their there.

Wind, All these recipes! I never dreamed there were so many. I could spend all evening just checking out all those links! Many many thanks for thse recipes. doris

Baa, I have numerous cookbooks, and many of them have candied yams or sweet potatoes, including suggestions for variations. Some have orange in one or another form, some have brown sugar, some use maple syrup. If you want me to e-mail you some of these recipes, I will be happy to do so, but I don't think I should put them here. Your description sounds like what I call glazed yams, but could also be candied. Most of these are baked with the glaze or sauce after boiling. You can also use canned yams to save time.

Aimee

Thanks, we don't have things like canned yams here. We do get a great selection of vegetables and fruit from around the world (its a huge benefit of being part of the commonwealth) so anything with fresh veg is great.

Just out of curiosity, why can't you put them in the recipe forum?

I meant I didn't want to put them in this thread, since it was Wind's. I could put them in the recipe forum if you wish.

thank,s wind for the friendship bread,i also found lot,s of recipe,s.your wonderful .

Thanks for the Amish Firendship bread...I just printed the recipe and will make the starter this evening.

cheers!!

You all cook it and put some in a box and send it to me.

Thanks Wind for going to the trouble to find the recipes. It would have been easier on you if you would have said "Do a Google search". That was very nice of you and I appreciate it.
Busybee

Hey Guys I am so pleased that you like the recipes.
I have not read all the recipes that I have found here but I am writing down the web address because I don't trust this computer.
Aimee thanks so much for helping out and offering recipes,I haven't been able to get online and stay there for more than about two minutes in the last three days, so maybe I'll be able to answer all your responses today.

Wow how nice of you to give out the recipes from your books and I am sure they are enjoy it! I can see long listof the reicpes! ;0) Thank You~ RedRose

ATTENTION FLORIDIAN!!!!
I have found your recipe and it was in one of my books that I bought from the library, well anyway here it goes:

COQ AU VIN
1 frying chicken(about 3 lbs) cut up
1/4 cup butter
8 small boiling onions,peeled
8 small carrots, scraped
1 garlic clove, minced
2 Tbs all-purpose flour
2 cups of dry red wine
1 small bay leaf
1 Tbs minced parsley
1/4 tsp each of ground savory and thyme
1 can(4oz)button mushrooms
1 1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper

Cut chicken into quarters, or smaller pieces if you prefer.
Remove the spinal cord and neck to improve apperance of the breast. Melt butter in a skillet and brown chicken pieces over medium heat. Remove chicken pieces to a plate and set aside. Put onions and carrots in the skillet. Brown very lightyl. Add garlic. Stir in flour,then gradually stir in wine. When wine is well blended,add bay leaf, parsley,savory, and thyme. Pour in liquid from can of mushrooms; add salt and pepper. Return chicken to pan and add mushrooms. Cover and simmer slowly for 20 to 30 minutes, or until chicken and vegetables are tender. Serve with mashed potatoes. Makes 3 or 4 servings
NOTE: The better the wine, the better the dish!

I was looking for a creamed chicken recipe in one of the books when I found this and I was so happy that I dropped everything to give you this recipe before I could forget which book it was in lol.
I have never worked so hard to find a recipe in all of my life and it was right under my nose all the time...go figure!

OH MY GOODNESS DO I HAVE EGG ALL OVER MY FACE!!!
I have been looking so hard for the recipe that I forgot how it was spelled and who asked for it( a sign of old age)
I am so sorry but Michele500 I will stil keep looking.
