This colorful quinoa salad features nice big chunks of mango, red pepper, and avocado. It also has black beans, green onions, some seasonings, and of course, cilantro... Never forget the cilantro! Then it's dressed with a tasty lime vinaigrette dressing. It a great salad for parties, and a delicious salad for dinner time.<br />
<br />
If you're looking for a healthy salad recipe that people LOVE, look no further because this is the one. I know, there's always a few in a crowd who'll say they won't eat quinoa...<br />

<span style="text-align: start;">It's fun to entice those who say, they don't like quinoa to try this salad, and t</span>hen they decide they like it after all!</div>

Sure, quinoa's an odd-looking little grain-like seed, but like the saying goes...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><b>Great things do come in small packages!</b> </i></div>
<br />
Quinoa actually has more protein than any other grain or seed and offers a complete protein, which means it contains all the essential amino acids our bodies can't make on their own. It's also a great source of calcium and is high in lysine, B vitamins, and iron. Better still, this little seed is easy to digest and it's gluten-free. (1)</div>

<span style="font-size: x-large;">Black Bean Salad</span><br />
<br />
Yield: 8 cups salad<br />
<br />
Quinoa:<br />
<div style="margin: 0in;">
1 1/2 cups white quinoa, fully rinsed and drained</div>
<div style="margin: 0in;">
2 1/4 cups hot water</div>
<div style="margin: 0in;">
1 fresh lime, washed, <a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00004S7V8/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B00004S7V8&linkCode=as2&tag=shaalicoo-20&linkId=fc46bdc2a20fb04ad83ee0f514c754e6">zested</a> & <a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00YBP918M/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B00YBP918M&linkCode=as2&tag=shaalicoo-20&linkId=a25afa363aefdedd438a487da420bab0">juiced</a></div>
1/2 tsp salt<br />
<br />
Vinaigrette:<br />
2 fresh limes,<span style="font-family: "calibri";"> </span>juiced<br />
1/2 jalapeño chile, seeded and coarsely chopped<br />
1 tsp granulated sugar<br />
1 tsp ground cumin<br />
1/2 tsp chili powder<br />
1/2 tsp salt, or to taste<br />
1/2 tsp pepper, or to taste<br />
1/4 cup fresh cilantro leaves<br />
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil<br />
<br />
Fixings:<br />
1 mango, cubed<br />
1 red bell pepper, chopped<br />
4 Tbsp fresh cilantro leaves, chopped<br />
2 green onions, sliced<br />
1 (15‑oz) can black beans, rinsed<br />
1 avocado, cubed<br />
Salt & cracked pepper, to taste<br />
<br />
<a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00FLYWNYQ/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B00FLYWNYQ&linkCode=as2&tag=shaalicoo-20&linkId=0dc4ae548ea3963a4a3ce96c8ea571ac">Instant Pot Method</a><span style="font-family: "calibri";">:</span> (Pressure Cook 1-Minute)<br />
Over the sink, rinse the measured quinoa through a fine sieve for a few minutes until the water runs clear. In an Instant Pot pressure cooker, add the quinoa, lime zest, and salt. Pour in the hot water. Twist the cover to the locked position and flip the vent switch. Select "Pressure Cook" or "Manual". Lower the minutes down to just 1 minute. Select "Pressure" to highlight (High Pressure) unless it's already lit; fine, leave it there. Give the machine a second, to say, "ON" and then walk away. The Instant Pot will come up to pressure and cook for 1 minute. Allow pressure to release naturally for 10 minutes, before turning the pressure valve switch, and releasing the small amount of pressure that's left. Open and stir your perfectly cooked quinoa.<br />
<br />
Stove-Top (Steam Cook 20 minutes)<br />
Rinse the quinoa, as directed above. Place in a 2-qt saucepan, along with the lime zest and salt. Add the hot water. Cover and bring to a boil over MED-HIGH heat. Reduce heat to LOW to simmer gently until most of the water has been absorbed, and quinoa is nearly tender; about 15 minutes.<br />
<br />
Cooling: Spread the cooked quinoa out onto a <a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00008UA3Z/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B00008UA3Z&linkCode=as2&tag=shaalicoo-20&linkId=e6f39fa1180fa9d1b332c7a271d45ea0" target="_blank">quarter-sheet baking pan</a>, cool for 20 minutes. Meanwhile, prepare the vinaigrette.<br />
<br />
Vinaigrette: In a <a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00939FV8K/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B00939FV8K&linkCode=as2&tag=shaalicoo-20&linkId=60316e2f007df8905890b921ae1a3309">blender</a>, <a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01AXM4WV2/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B01AXM4WV2&linkCode=as2&tag=shaalicoo-20&linkId=61570e544b6669779124302aea9394ae">food processor</a>, or wide-mouth pint jar (with an <a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00AN9UJ68/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B00AN9UJ68&linkCode=as2&tag=shaalicoo-20&linkId=0b29572fa2be8f18183a499812872969">immersion blender</a>) add the lime juice, coarsely chopped jalapeño, sugar, and seasonings. With blender/processor running, slowly drizzle in the oil; process 20 seconds to emulsify the dressing. Add cilantro, process about 15 seconds to chop, with (an immersion blender) pulse for only a few seconds. </div>
<div>
<br />
Fixings: Chop the mango, red pepper, and fresh cilantro, add to the quinoa. Slice the green onions, add to the mix. Transfer the cooled quinoa salad mix into a large salad bowl. Fold in the rinsed black beans. Fold the vinaigrette into the quinoa salad; toss to combine. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Chill 2 hours.<br />
<br />
Make-Ahead: Pre-cook the quinoa, and chill separately from the prepared chilled vinaigrette. It tastes fantastic the first 12-24 hours, mixed together, but if you make it ahead 2-3 days, the quinoa will go mushy. Next, in a container with a lid, combine the prepared mango, veggies with the seasonings, and add to the refrigerator too. Bring the quinoa and vinaigrette to room temperature. Shakes vinaigrette to recombine, fold into the quinoa with the fixings; return to the refrigerator. Dress salad up to 2 hours before serving.<br />
<br />
Enjoy,<br />

If you're into lemon meringue pie, chances are you will just LOVE...<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Homemade Traditional Lemon Curd</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">and</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Microwave Lemon Curd</span><br />
<br />
If you're not a fan of lemons, you will still probably LOVE some zesty<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: x-large;">Microwave Lime Curd </span></div>
<div>
<br />
<br />
Now, I've given you two, (sort of three) recipes below. The first is done on the stove-top for a dreamy, creamy, custard-like lemon curd. It takes a tad longer, but the results are so well worth it.<br />
<br />
The second recipe is for curds you can make in the microwave. Their textures won't be as creamy as the first recipe; they up generally having more of a soft, jam consistency.<br />

<i>You're just gonna want to give these recipes a go because there ARE so many ways to use curd in baking recipes, and there are simple & fast ways too. For example...</i></div>
<div>
</div>
<ul>
<li>Enjoy a dollop over pancakes or waffles.</li>
<li>Spoon some over yogurt or ice cream.</li>
<li>Serve layered in a fruit parfait.</li>
<li>Use as a filling for pastries, cakes & cupcakes. </li>
</ul>
<div>
<br />
<i>Or just simply use curd like you would a jam or preserves. Spread some over toast, biscuits or croissants. Simply make sure to eat them upside down, and give your taste buds a happy dance. </i></div>
<div>
<i></i><br />
Hint: Mix it up... you can make the recipes below either with the stove (or microwave) depending on the texture of curd you're after.<br />

<br />
Stove-Top: Place the bowl over a saucepan of simmering water, making sure the bottom of the bowl doesn't touch the water. Over MEDIUM heat, and stirring constantly, cook the curd slowly for 10 minutes. Once the curd has thickened enough, it will coat the back of the spoon.

Suggestions: Anything you might use jam for, you can use curd instead. Serve with toast, pancakes or waffles for a breakfast. Spoon over yogurt or ice cream. Serve layered in a fruit parfait or as a filling for pastries and cakes.<br />

Pre-grated cheeses often include the ingredient, cellulose that prevents the shreds from sticking, plus prevents them from melting smoothly too. Of the block cheese "in-house" brands that melt nicely, Walmart's Great Values sharp cheese melted easily and very well. Winco's "in-house", block cheese, didn't melt as smoothly, yet still tasted fine, after I pureed the soup again with my immersion blender.<br /><br />Dietary Needs<br />If you, unfortunately, have dairy issues, this recipe won't be you. However, if you're like me, and you just require a Gluten Free soup… you're in luck!<br /><br />I've tested and substituted America's Test Kitchen's Gluten Free flour mix (1:1) for the regular, all-purpose flour. Even my gluten-loving husband loved the results, and so did I. My d-i-l also said the flavors were very good. I've made it twice now in 10 days, and I'll make it again, here on out. <br /><br />Give It A Go!<br />Tell me what you think in the comments. Definitely, give it a go... with regular or GF flo<br /><br />Bon Appétit!</i></span><br />

<span style="color: #666666; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">White Rice Flour: ideal for its neutral flavor and smooth texture. America Test Kitchen had the best results with Bob’s Red Mill white rice flour and recommends using that brand.<br /><br />Brown Rice Flour: imparts earthiness and lends heft to baked goods. America Test Kitchen also had the best results with Bob’s Red Mill brown rice flour, so they recommend using that brand again over any other.<br /><br />Potato Starch: helps with tenderness and binding. Be very careful to use potato starch, and not potato flour. Alternatively, you substitute additional sweet white rice flour, 7 ounces (1 1/4 cups plus 2 tablespoons), add 7 ounces (1 3/4 cups) arrowroot starch/flour/powder may be substituted for the potato starch. They state they had better results using sweet rice flour in quick-breads, cakes, and cookies, but substitute arrowroot starch in yeast bread.<br /><br />Tapioca Starch: provides chew and elasticity. Tapioca starch is also sold as tapioca flour; they are interchangeable.<br /><br />Nonfat Milk Powder: helps with structure, tenderness, and browning; adds a lovely rich, caramel-like flavor, and helps temper starchiness. </span><br />
<span style="color: #666666; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br />If dairy is part of your diet, they strongly recommend adding the nonfat milk powder. (ATK uses nonfat, rather than whole-milk, powder because it is more readily available.) If you prefer, use an equal amount of soy milk powder. You can omit the milk powder altogether, however baked goods won’t brown quite a well and they will taste a bit less rich, especially in recipes without a lot of fat.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #444444;"><i><span style="color: #444444; font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span>There are plenty of vegetables listed in the recipe's ingredients, but what if you have zucchini on hand, or grow it in your garden? I think that would taste great. Switch it up, and have FUN! Ooh, how about some canned baby corn? Now, I just can't help but think of a very young Tom Hanks, as Josh, in his ornate white tux (LOL!) eating his teensy-weensy ~ corn on the cob ~ in the movie, "BIG!" </i>😆</span></span></span><span style="color: #444444; font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><i></i><i></i><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large; font-style: italic;">Now, this is a Chinese WHITE Sauce recipe. So trust me, try the recipe first as written, it's delicious, much like the classic dish you'd find in most Chinese restaurants. </span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large; font-style: italic;">However, if you are still just a die-hard Chinese BROWN Sauce fan, here's what you can do. Stir in La Choy Light soy sauce (gluten-free), adding 1-Tbsp at a time, always, I add by taste. Then tinker with the sugar, salt & pepper. Brighten it up with some rice vinegar, I add 1/2-tsp at a time, until I'm satisfied. Also, pump up the heat, with more red pepper flakes. Share in the comments, if you have a brown sauce recipe you like! </span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large; font-style: italic;">Another thing, I'm always careful not to over-cook the chicken or vegetables. In fact, I slightly undercook my veggies a bit, as we like ours crisp, with some bite to them.</span></span><br />
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;"><i><br />There are only two of us now at home these days, but I still do stir-fry up the full recipe in my LARGE, <a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0042RUPFC/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B0042RUPFC&linkCode=as2&tag=shaalicoo-20&linkId=d2ab14276265264750158e794d241153">non-stick electric wok</a>, which I've loved, really for decades! It's non-stick,<img border="0" src="https://ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com/e/ir?t=shaalicoo-20&l=am2&o=1&a=B0042RUPFC" /> so the oil is only for enhancing the flavor of the food. At the end of the recipe, I choose NOT to combine the White Sauce and Almond Chicken Stir Fry but store them in the refrigerator separately.<br /><br />So, for 1-2 the servings, I use my MED-SIZED, <a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00DE1CDD4/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B00DE1CDD4&linkCode=as2&tag=shaalicoo-20&linkId=95ef5e629133e38488b5343ab5ed1922">flat-bottom, stove-top wok</a><img border="0" src="https://ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com/e/ir?t=shaalicoo-20&l=am2&o=1&a=B00DE1CDD4" /> to (freshen up) the Almond Chicken Stir Fry on HIGH. and have no worries of scorching the sauce right off. Once the chicken and veggies are warm, spoon in some sauce to heat through. You'll LOVE it. They won't even taste like left-over. In fact, the serving picture was set up this way, and I purposely used less sauce to feature the Almond Chicken And Veggies. LOL! Afterwards, when I offered the pictured plate of food to my husband, he asked for, "More sauce… please!" I obliged, and he loved it!</i></span><br />

Refrigerate the chicken separately from the veggies. Mince fresh ginger, fresh garlic, and onion; chill now, to stir-fry for the White Sauce later. Lastly, combine a small amount of chicken broth with cornstarch for a slurry, stir in the remaining broth. Chill.</span></span></span></div>

<span style="color: #666666;"><span style="color: #999999; font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><span style="font-size: large;">*If you don't have any homemade broth, at least canned broth, rather than using bouillon cubes, a better, tastier option is.. to always have a chicken base on hand instead! To name a few terrific brands: Tone's Chicken Base (Sam's), McCormick (Costco) or Better than Bouillon (grocer's). Just follow the instructions on the labels for amounts. Again, I add carefully, judging correctly by my taste buds.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">Rice: Before dinner get your rice cooking according to the package directions, or as your manual directs (i.e.: </span><a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004O83YVQ/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B004O83YVQ&linkCode=as2&tag=shaalicoo-20&linkId=88da0d00e374f9f08326ad4c78d9efed" style="font-size: x-large;">rice cooker</a><span style="font-size: large;"><img border="0" src="https://ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com/e/ir?t=shaalicoo-20&l=am2&o=1&a=B004O83YVQ" /><img border="0" src="https://ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com/e/ir?t=shaalicoo-20&l=am2&o=1&a=B001KBY9M8" /> or </span><a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B071VCMK97/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B071VCMK97&linkCode=as2&tag=shaalicoo-20&linkId=4dc67fbd1238b37a0805a98887d9c878" style="font-size: x-large;">Instant Pot</a><span style="font-size: large;"><img border="0" src="https://ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com/e/ir?t=shaalicoo-20&l=am2&o=1&a=B071VCMK97" />).</span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">Almonds & Chicken: In a </span><a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0042RUPFC/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B0042RUPFC&linkCode=as2&tag=shaalicoo-20&linkId=d2ab14276265264750158e794d241153" style="font-size: x-large;">non-stick electric wok</a><span style="font-size: large;"><img border="0" src="https://ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com/e/ir?t=shaalicoo-20&l=am2&o=1&a=B0042RUPFC" />, over HIGH heat (375°F) a drop of water should sizzle into a puff of steam. Heat 1-tsp oil, and stir-fry the almonds for about 2 min, or until lightly golden. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside. Add 1-Tbsp oil to stir-fry the chicken. Transfer the cooked chicken to a large, 2-qt covered container. Set aside.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">Veggies: Heat 1-tsp oil to stir-fry the veggies. Add the carrots first, stir-frying 1-2 minutes. Add the celery, cook 1 minute just before adding the snow peas. Don't over-cook, stir-fry until just barely tender, but still crisp. Add to the chicken. Stir-fry the mushrooms for 30 seconds, add water chestnuts, and then bamboo shoots; briefly stir-fry, before transferring to the chicken. Finally, quickly stir-fry the sliced cabbage until only wilted; toss in with veggies, almonds, and chicken.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">White Sauce: Over HIGH heat, pour in 1-tsp oil in the empty wok, add the minced ginger; stir-fry briefly for 15 seconds. Add the minced garlic and red pepper flakes, to quickly stir-fry those for 15-30 seconds. If necessary, lower the heat slightly, so as to begin to burn anything. Add the minced onion, and stir-fry until translucent. Stir the chicken broth, cornstarch mixture; pour into the wok. Stir and heat through, until thickened. Sweeten, starting with 1 tsp sugar (going by taste). Season with salt and pepper, as desired.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">(EITHER) You can add the cooked chicken, the almonds (reserving some), and the veggies back into the wok with the white sauce, and heat through. Serve over 6 servings of hot cooked rice. Sprinkle with reserved almonds over top.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">(OR) At this point, the white sauce can be (instead refrigerated) and stored separately from Almond Chicken & Stir-Fried Vegetables. Later, any # servings of Almond Chicken & Vegetables can be easily refreshed (stir-fried) again, with the sauce at the end to heat through, w/o tasting like plain old leftovers! </span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">Enjoy,</span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">Sharon Anne</span></span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"> </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #999999;">The recipe is fairly basic, the oil is 3 to 1 with the vinegar. Add a touch of dry mustard, onion powder, and season with salt & pepper. U</span></span><span style="color: #999999; font-size: large; text-align: start;">se whatever oil you prefer. </span><span style="color: #999999; font-size: large;">You can slowly whisk it in, but instead, I choose to shake it!</span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #999999; font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">After I vigorously shake the oil in, I WILL whisk in my🔍secret ingredient, "a pinch" of xanthan gum. This suspends raspberry seeds beautifully throughout the dressing, and yet the dressing still pours out easily. Plus, the oil and vinegar won't separate later on. Just always be sure to add only “a pinch”, and no more! <br /><br />You can DIVIDE or DOUBLE the dressing recipe, but go slowly if adding more xanthan gum! It doesn't take much, to become too much.<br /><br />Xanthan Gum is a common ingredient used in Gluten-Free, Low-Carb, and Keto recipes. It is also powerful stabilizer regularly used in the commercial salad dressing industry.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">2 pounds fresh, med-thick asparagus (see Rinse and Snap)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">8 cups water</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">2 Tbsp coarse salt</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Have a large bowl of ice water standing by.

<br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><span style="color: #6aa84f;">Storing Fresh Asparagus</span><br />Keep in a plastic bag in the crisper drawer away from ethylene-producing fruit like apples and pears, which toughen the stalks. Note that storing bunches upright in water may cause the tips to open.<br /><span style="color: #6aa84f;"><br />Rinse and Snap</span><br />The tender tips can be particularly sandy. Holding the bunch upside down, gently swish it in cold water. Then to snap off the tough woody ends, bending the stalks at the natural breaking point (where the color changes from white to green), just 1 - 2 inches from the base.</span><br />

<span style="color: #666666; font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">I just harvested most of my tomatillos today, only leaving a few small stragglers still left on the vine. </span><span style="color: #666666; font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">What's great about tomatillos, unlike tomatoes, they actually last a long time off the vine. </span></div>

I've since adapted it to be Gluten Free, and tastes fantastic! My family LOVES this recipe.</span></span><br />
<span style="color: #999999; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;"><i><br /></i></span> <span style="color: #999999; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;"><i>I had so loved eating this meal for years and years from Applebee's! Then Todd Wilbur of Top Secret Recipes came out with his version some time back, and our family loved his version possibly even more. </i></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><i><span style="color: #999999; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br />Then for a number of years, once I switched to eating Gluten Free, I stopped making it because I couldn't find Gluten Free Kikkoman Marinade locally where I live. <br /><br />Fortunately, a few Walmart Superstores thereafter started carrying it; yet unfortunately not close by. On one occasion, I purchased several bottles. I'll note: Amazon sells it too; considering the extra trouble and the price of gas... it's still pricey. <br /><br />Anywhoo! I went to make the recipe for when my kids came over last weekend, and I just about PANICKED when realized I'd gone through my stash of bottles! I searched high and low, in places I wouldn't have put the extras... I just wasn't quite sure what else I should do? At first, I figured, I'd just do a different recipe. (No, instead I decided to punt!) <br /><br /><b>Substituted: </b>Without adding any extra water, I crossed my fingers, and substituted: 2 Tablespoons La Choy Lite soy sauce (which is wheat free) for all the marinade and hoped for the best. Otherwise, don't omit the other key ingredients, which are wonderful!<br /><br /><b> Re: (Marinating)</b> In the directions, it says to marinate chicken for 2 hours. However, I CHEAT with a <a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0044XDA3S/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B0044XDA3S&linkCode=as2&tag=shaalicoo-20&linkId=b9e0bd2ba9b571865ddf3e94c7ed790d">FoodSaver</a><img border="0" src="https://ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com/e/ir?t=shaalicoo-20&l=am2&o=1&a=B0044XDA3S" /> vacuum sealer, taking just 15 minutes, with (two) accessory <a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00005OTXS/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B00005OTXS&linkCode=as2&tag=shaalicoo-20&linkId=29b2fe93322e8004c9f4ebf9d3096a10">Quick 2.25 quart Marinator</a> <img border="0" src="https://ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com/e/ir?t=shaalicoo-20&l=am2&o=1&a=B00005OTXS" />containers. Okay, you can get by using just one, doing the meat in batches - instead - taking 30 minutes. A real time-saver! Not only faster, also makes cuts taste juicier and more flavorful! The vacuum action expands and opens up the cells, forcing more of the marinade into the cells structure of meat, rather than merely flavoring it. <br /><br /><b> Re: (Grilling)</b> Is your outside grill is as old and on the fritz, as mine is? By all means, cook the chicken inside too! So, it's an all-year-round winning recipe! For grill marks, you can use either an oiled cast-iron <a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0000CF66W/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B0000CF66W&linkCode=as2&tag=shaalicoo-20&linkId=67868511cdea031329cc4765e2ed291e">grill pan</a><img border="0" src="https://ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com/e/ir?t=shaalicoo-20&l=am2&o=1&a=B0000CF66W" /> or <a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00008GKDQ/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B00008GKDQ&linkCode=as2&tag=shaalicoo-20&linkId=bfa5b3767e35a02ba578583df97298a5">cast-iron grill/griddle</a><img border="0" src="https://ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com/e/ir?t=shaalicoo-20&l=am2&o=1&a=B00008GKDQ" />. Otherwise, pan-fry the meat in a small amount of oil. Cook the meat just until completely done on both sides, without over-cooking. <br /><br /><b>To Serve:</b> Plate the chicken and toppings onto the dinner plates, before placing briefly under to the oven broiler, melting the cheese, watching closely not to burn it! The Applebee's Mexican Rice recipe and Pico De Gallo links are at end of this post.<br /><br /><b>The Results:</b> FANTASTIC! Maybe it's because I haven't made it for a while, but maybe even better than with the Gluten Free Kikkoman Marinade. It sure makes the recipe a whale of a lot more affordable!!! </span></i></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><span style="color: #999999;">1. Combine the meat and marinade in a zip-type bag and chill in the refrigerator for 2 hours. Meanwhile, mix together the sauce ingredients, chill; reserve for later us.<br /><br />2. Grill breasts on both sides until done, but do not over-cook. Preheat your oven to HIGH-BROIL. <br /><br />3. Place each grilled breast onto individual oven-safe dinner plates, over a bed of tri-colored tortilla strips; cover each with a generous spoonful of sauce, a sprinkling of cheese, topped with tomatoes, diced red onion, and cilantro. <br /><br />4. With the oven set to broil, place each plate on the highest shelf and broil for only a few minutes - watching so as to NOT burn the cheese. Serve garnished, with fresh lime wedges, and related recipes below.</span> </span><br />

Many websites say it is because it breaks down, that's NOT my experience. Since ICJ thickens both instantly and during cooking, heat is UNABLE to penetrate to the center of the jar! Dangerous spoilage can (AND will) occur during storage. </span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Helpful Hint: Use a <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000GHF3V8/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B000GHF3V8&linkCode=as2&tag=shaalicoo-20&linkId=YY56AYSNCAACGQCZ" target="_blank">hand-stick blender</a> <img alt="" border="0" height="1" src="https://ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com/e/ir?t=shaalicoo-20&l=as2&o=1&a=B000GHF3V8" style="border: none !important; margin: 0px !important;" width="1" />and w/whisk attachment to </span></span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">whisk egg whites barely into soft peaks, (but NO more) or waffles will taste dry, gently fold into batter.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Waffles: Cook until waffles are browned, mine takes about 7-minutes. Don't open the waffle maker, </span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">until (a few seconds) <u>AFTER</u> the steam stops escaping.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Helpful Hint: Note, I use a <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000063XH7/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B000063XH7&linkCode=as2&tag=shaalicoo-20&linkId=ADPAHHL3VNJEZYYY" target="_blank">traditional waffle maker</a><img alt="" border="0" height="1" src="https://ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com/e/ir?t=shaalicoo-20&l=as2&o=1&a=B000063XH7" style="border: none !important; margin: 0px !important;" width="1" /> to make thinner waffles, instead of thicker Belgium waffles for (this particular recipe). T</span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">he other grains help lighten the consistency, so these</span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"> waffles aren't as heavy as basic whole-wheat waffles. Plus you should whip the egg-whites separately.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">Plus, to crispy the waiting waffles... </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Preheat oven to 200°F. Transfer waffles to cooling racks, place (unstacked) in oven, keeping warm </span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">and crispy for 5-15 minutes before serving.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Ingredients: Spray dough blade and shaft; fit the blade in pan, helps to keep it from sticking later. Combine the buttermilk & water in a saucepan to warm until 110°F; test with an instant-read thermometer, and then add to bread machine pan. Add honey, butter and salt. Add flour, spread out to cover the corners; add Enhanced YEAST Mix.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Dough Cycle: Press START. Wait 5 minutes for dough to knead, allowing for wheat flour to absorb liquids. Open the lid, the dough should feel soft and pliable, slightly tacky, but not sticky. Taste it; should TASTE as good as a baked loaf. If it doesn't, use a salt shaker to sprinkle in as much salt as needed. Plus the dough should feel soft and pliable, slightly tacky, but not sticky. If either too wet or dry, add water or flour, only 1-tsp at a time, until the dough become as soft as a baby's bottom.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Shaping: Once the cycle is finishes, allow the dough to rise until double. Remove to shape hand and place in a sprayed 8 x 4 (or 12 x 4) loaf pan. Cover loaf; allow dough to rise 1 to 2-inches above the rim of the pan.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">Comparing: Fresh Ground Wheat vs. King Arthur Whole-Wheat. BIG Difference! Left has both red & white "fresh ground" whole-grain flours and store-brand bread flour. Right, just King Arthur "premium" whole-wheat and store-brand bread flour.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Bake: Preheat OVEN to 350°F. Bake 30 minutes. Test internal temperature of a loaf, with an instant-read thermometer. A fully baked loaf should register 195°F to 205°F, (lower temp) best for High Altitudes.</span><br />

Don't slice for bread yet! Cool for at least 30 minutes and slice with an electric knife for perfect (non-gummy) slices. Do NOT bag loaf when warm or hot. Doubled-bagged, unsliced loaves have a better freezer-life, although not as convenient as sliced loaves. Defrost bagged on the counter, until thawed, try avoiding the microwave.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">DIRECTIONS</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br />DOUGH: Fit a high capacity mixer (i.e.: Bosch) with the dough hook. In a saucepan or microwave, heat buttermilk with water to 110°F; test with an instant-read thermometer. If it separates, simply pour into work-bowl. Add honey, butter and salt. Measure in HALF the flours and add in Enhanced YEAST Mix. Cover and blend until smooth. Now with machine running, slowly add remaining flour, 1-cup at a time, stop adding flour when the dough begins to clean the sides of the work-bowl. Set a timer, allowing dough to knead for 8 minutes, to fully develop gluten. Remove cover and dough hook. Re-cover with a tea-towel, allow dough to rise for 30 minutes, or until doubled.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">TROUBLE-SHOOTING </span><br />
<br />
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">If not thick and creamy afterwards, BLEND in 1 Tbsp dry milk OR 1/2 tsp <a href="http://sharealikecooking.blogspot.com/p/clearjel-page-clearly-best-thickeners.html">Instant ClearJel</a> (a bit at a time). </span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">If too thick, stir in a little water to a pourable consistency, closer to store-bought buttermilk. If it separates, simply STIR to re-incorporate, or reblend until smooth. </span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">This really happens whenever heated in the microwave, as the whey liquid separates from the milk solids, ignore that - just add to recipe! </span></li>
</ul>
<br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">BB Buttermilk should stay fresh for 30-days, better than fresh store-bought. Best when used within a month, or just make a smaller batch next time, if you're not using it up fast enough. If it happens to curdle, but still smells fresh and no funky-sour smell, reblend and use remainder up quickly. Begin with a new START next time.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">To perpetuate subsequent batches (ALWAYS remember) to reserve a minimum of 1/4-cup BB Buttermilk for a new quart... Simply repeat the process with a dry, sterile jar. DO NOT to perpetuate with any more than 1/3 cup of BBB, it gets too strong later; begin again with a fresh "mother" culture - every 3rd or 4th time.</span><br />

<i><br /></i><i>Anyway, it's truly delicious and fairly easy to make, except for Spring Time is when </i><i>I've always made any batches for the year, in the past, because I read that's when </i><i>ginger produces the most tender roots. I just haven't made any other times of the year.</i><br />
<br />
<i>In the meantime then</i>, I found the following video, shared by Food Editor Jenny Slafkosky and figured others might benefit from it too.<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Note: </span><span style="font-size: large;">Just simply grate the frozen ginger (unthawed) with a </span><span style="font-size: large; text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00004S7V8/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B00004S7V8&linkCode=as2&tag=kneanyins-20&linkId=2656K63Y22ZG4GVG">Microplane Zester/Grater</a>. </span><span style="font-size: large;">Y</span><span style="font-size: large;">ou don't even have to PEEL it first, before freezing. (How great is that? I love it!) Plus, I've listed several more of my favorite uses below for this terrific tool.</span><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="400" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/pD9HgGIWLUw?rel=0" width="600"></iframe></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><span style="font-size: large;">Here's an IDEA for an affordable</span></i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: red;">Christmas Gift</span> <span style="color: red;">for your favorite cook</span>, maybe even YOURSELF!</span></i></div>
<br />
<span style="font-size: x-large;">Besides ginger, here are several helpful hints, as to why <i>I've loved my </i><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00004S7V8/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B00004S7V8&linkCode=as2&tag=kneanyins-20&linkId=2656K63Y22ZG4GVG" style="text-align: center;">Microplane</a><i> for <b>10 years </b></i><i>now. I don't know maybe even more! (Heck, I've lost count.) </i></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">1. I love it for grating whole nutmeg! You've never lived until you've had freshly grated nutmeg in eggnog or on your morning oatmeal. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Savings tip: Mexican markets, that sell whole nutmeg, may sell it (for less) than you'll find on grocer stores' spice aisles. In fact, I find that to be true with most spices. I'll also buy my Asian spices at Asian markets too; many or most sell fresh ginger root too.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">2. When you z</span><span style="font-size: large;">est oranges, lemon and limes, it take only seconds, without any of that hateful/bitter pith!</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">3. Use it for g</span><span style="font-size: large;">rating hard cheeses, like fresh Parmesan or Romano, into delicious feathery-light stands. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">4. G</span><span style="font-size: large;">rate chocolate over top of cakes, whipped cream or into hot cocoa. Just be sure the chocolate is very COLD before you attempt to finely grate it.</span><br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<i><span style="font-size: large;">Re: Cleanup... I usually simply rinse it off , and then wipe dry. However, since they are also dishwasher safe, mine has gone in innumerable times. It's still sharp as I can ever remember it being.</span></i><br />
