Title: French Twist New England Boiled Dinner
Categories: Pork, Stove top, Porkst, Pork1pot, 1pot
Yield: 4 servings

1 lb Head of green cabbage
-pork
4 md Potatoes, peeled
2 Leeks, trimmed & well washed
-tied
1 Onion*
2 ts Allspice
1 Bay leaf
1 Salt to taste
1 lb Smoked shoulder or butt
4 lg Carrots, trim & scrape
4 Ribs celery,trimmed and
2 Whole cloves
1 ts Dried thyme
6 Peppercorns
4 Chicken legs and thighs

*Peel onion but leave stem on, press cloves into onion.
Remove and discard any tough outer leaves on the cabbage, quarter and
remove the core.
In large kettle, combine the pork butt, potatoes, cabbage, carrots,
leeks, celery, onion, allspice, thyme, bay leaf, and peppercorns.
Cover with water, add salt to taste. Cover, bring to a boil, reduce
heat and simmer for 20 minutes. Add the chicken and simmer for 15
minutes more.

From the author: "In my recipe, smoked shoulder or butt of pork is
combined with winter vegetables and chicken. The smoked pork is
already cooked, which greatly reduces boiling time. The chicken legs
and thighs go in last because they cook quickly. Serve guests a
little of each ingredient along with Dijon-style mustard, grated
horseradish and cornichons. A mixed green salad is all you need on
the side."

Yes.

More like vulcanised pancakes. I prefer for waffles to keep their little honey/jam/jelly traps.

I have black socks in several lengths - from the "quarter socks" that
I wear when during short pants season (currently coming to an end) to
the knee-high compression guys - with stops along the calf at various heights/lengths. Some are thin, almost sheer. Others are "normal" and
still others are thick and fuzzy. And a couple sets of thermal socks
plus a battery-powered heated set left over from my year-round motor
sickle and snowmobile days.

Title: Shemp's Waffles w/Cherry Sauce
Categories: Breads, Fruits, Citrus, Sauces, Dairy
Yield: 3 Servings

MMMMM------------------------CHERRY SAUCE-----------------------------
1/4 c Sugar
2 ts Cornstarch
1/8 ts Cinnamon
1/2 c Orange juice
2 c Sweet cherries; pitted,
- halved
1 ts Grated orange peel
Sweetened whipped cream

MMMMM--------------------------WAFFLES-------------------------------
2 c Flour
2 tb Sugar
1 1/2 ts Baking powder
1/2 ts Salt
2 c Milk
1/2 c Melted butter
4 lg Eggs separated

For Cherry Sauce: Combine sugar, cornstarch and cinnamon;
add orange juice, cherries and orange peel. Bring to boil
over medium high heat; boil until thickened. Serve warm
cherry sauce over waffles; top with sweetened whipped
cream.

For Waffles: Combine flour, sugar, baking powder & salt.
Combine milk, melted butter and egg yolks. Add to dry
ingredients; stir just to moisten. Fold in stiffly beaten
egg whites. Bake in waffle iron according to maker's
directions.

Makes 3 (or more) waffles

UDD Notes: These are the old-fashion waffles. NOT the
puffy "Belgian" waffles. Cherry preserves will work
just fine if you're not up for making the sauce. Or,
like me, just bone lazy.
