My own variation Miso Soup
Suppose to used palette mouth cleanse but in our family we use it like use it for Keep warm and lunch time meal you have with rice and fish? Sometimes you skip rice and have mochi with it and Occassional fish in can.
Tastes good when your feeling down, also is good way to make people who feeling sad, feels you up, I used to make people in my family good. Its crowd pleaser for those who loves veggies.
Ingredients
Miso paste, Red, white, (I seen new kinds) depends on how much water, Normally half pot, because water from vegetables will add to pot.
Equipment:
ta da Sauce pan - if big one and you put like four ramen in it then you picked very good size for miso soup.
Ladle to spoon out ingredients and put in small bowl to taste.
2 claw tongs would work
Knife to cut all your vegetables
small bowl for tasting to soup stock. it can't be gritty, has be not to salty taste like clean palette taste ah taste.
Dashi 1 packet of type you like, add to before boil,
Carrots x 2
Roasted Potato(sliced, roasted color, both sides, no oil)(for decor)
Roasted Sweet Potato(")(for decor though)
Nappa cabbage, collard, spinach, swiss chards, leafy vegetable tastes goods in soups
Bean sprouts, onions,
Seaweed you can add miso that at very end.

Roasted Sweet Potato(")(for decor though)

Bean sprouts, onions,
Seaweed you can add miso that at very end.
Directions
1) [Why I say Roasted Sweet Potatoes, and Roasted Regular potatoes you don't want starch you want firm taste right so best toast or roast them up in oven or in pan so when cook then up in water they won't break down. For me we had the chopped sweet potato, and chopped potato and put in toaster oven and take it out put in boiling water that way stays firm but becomes soft not break down potato.]
2)Add water to pot, get to boil add dashi, then add sliced carrots, save for later for decor at end.
3.) cut up tofu, bite size they go quick in miso for some reason. *Nappa I only used little bit it. Some other variations I used Spinach and Collard, depending how I cut it prior or how received it, normally spinach you have sniff it spinach if still smells fresh use it, if smells like trash pick between good bits, my goats still love that stuff, even when going, I have no idea why. Collard when first purchase it, wash, cut, and bag it, but pre-cut strips you have cut it again find good bits aka Top bits.
4). I added miso by tongs because normally if add by ladle it would get stuck and make vegetable get wimpy or break down...Miso paste being administered should be done when soup is on either on low heat or off. Not so if your making soup for perfectionist...
5) heat up should be only because rewarming it be hot enough to add seaweed you sprinkle it in or not depends on other people you are serving. Or if small one pot for yourself its recommend you leave it out.
Sprinkle away in your own bowl stopping only when you feel like if you don't have seaweed you can always use those instant packet dry ones and use it until get one.
6) * You can if you put in refrigerator after eat it and enjoy it put in and have next day I recommend putting in microwave don't have it keep in pot. reheat it on low until steam and use the testing bowl see your preference of good enough.
for those who do have microwave if 55 seconds to 1 minute.

Notes
Depending type equipment sometimes if family feeling eh so my mom normally makes big pot. So there we use big tall pot kind too..so that be one half pot water you have to taste test.
I realize I forgot something important.
Dashi or Bonito which ever tastes better, sometimes if your out of Dashi you can use Bonito flakes as quick thing to do but as I read some books they said that is no no.
I realized you just boil dried kelp and that is better anything.
Dashi is extract of these materials, bonito, sardines, kelp and all them don't have MSG. Mushroom stock kind has MSG.
MSG is linked with seizure and migraines so careful there.
Meat you have to change your recipe, minus the potatoes, put cabbage and possibly carrots so everything goes down. I recommend onions possibly cooked before but not to placed in soup just garnish individual bowls if want give it better taste to people add seaweed in just for bit prior to serving.
Reason no MSG its used as additional flavor enhancer its not needed. Why heck did we have Salt, and chefs for? It was used as flavor enhancer.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monosodium_glutamate Know your food.
Optional meat you can add to miso are:
FISH if frozen and fresh deboned or slightly blackened put in midway after you cook the vegetables.
Ham - you put in when you have vegetables it last longer
Bacon tastes really good,(slice it up chunks) especially uncooked, crispy variety makes taste good.
Chicken possible, boneless, to bone if you had BBQ slightly char you add it to your miso it not only add character to you soup it make people who eating your soup eat something out this world.
Beef (can't be ground) you can put steak or meet strips I found makes taste very beef stock

Directions
Mix dry and spice together, Beat wet together, scrape the sides of bowel very important.
Add dry gradually...not all in one time even how impatient you get. you get dust cloud...every where...
Use serving spoon to place in mixing machine bowel if you have issues.
By hand would been less frustrating but its get sticky I realize not everyone likes playing with gingersnap dough because you have wait until gets firm.
For me I had to check it I had wait until next day. My mother was impatient she get asking am I done with kitchen yet...
it states for rest period you have put in loaf pan I think you can still flour it and put into rolled forms and put in means where you cut up and place in freezer but it sticky. So best case scenario would freeze it and and then make use of it..
took overnight time and some then rolling it out I recommend using plastic bag...and flour on top that surface then using wax paper or parchment paper because it throwing it out that sort thing.
after its firm. [cut in thinnest possible you can cut into thick but it still taste like author of original recipe said it taste good. But her idea of making cookies coming out as lace cookies still come out better then her plan. She may have forgotten it was different butter ingredient, it could butter and Ghee. Or something else.] cut thin or thick, think you have to leave it as is, thick you cut in half and leave where it is be fine cookie.
small but be enough for adult and child.
Preheat time for baking process, 350 F/176 C 7-12 minutes however for me I had put in 15 minute due elevation and I wanted crispy not goey cookies had bad experiences with cookies and oven that quit all the time so crispy tasting cookies were on menu.

Set before you do any preset oven 375/190
7 to 10 minutes in recipe I had to make cook the cookies to 13 to 15 minutes due to 1,200 feet so we had put them in longer. May want to put your cookies in longer to make certain they have darker brown edge then you know they are done they be crispy done.

Notes
I was thinking this cookie would work well for engraving or painting type style but I ran out time maybe someone else would take up torch and make into something more.
Royal icing is pretty easy to make but that something if want to take up.
Icing you just add confectioner sugar and milk depending on thickness, and adding flavor and color.
Royal icing you add egg white, or egg white powder it matters...because gives stiff peaks that last and depending if your adding color there are recipes online you can search for.
I left mine plain, if want to add fresh ginger to give more punch to taste...it not recommended its already spicy depending cinnamon your using. I am using Saigon cinnamon that is pretty much packing heat.

Carob & Chocolate fudge or Double pan chocolate Fudge
Fudge originally came from Bettycrocker.com recipe it was my favorite it was consider too much, too thick but I divided them up and used it double pan method.
Foil ban 13 x 9 pan or cookie sheets it recommend if you use cookie sheet method you clean up your freezer and, 13 x 9 its medium thick, and if cookie sheet method its thinner but there is more.
Make super thick suggest using loaf pan...and my mother loves this method and to idea it best method so far. but you need to put loaf pan in for two hours...prior to stove top cooking. Allow you have setting faster..refrigeration time will shorter...it take hour with cold pan to go with hot fudge...and then you put either freezer or refrigerator I always put in freezer for like thirty minutes and it sets faster.
Note for storing: best to keep in refrigerator otherwise you end up with strange slab of soft fudge...resembles taffy or playdoh.
Ingredients
2 12 oz. Semi-sweet, white, dark, bittersweet or milk chocolate or [carob(is no caffeine)]
1 can 14 oz condense milk (divided)(3/4 c. set aside)
1 c. rough texture (nuts: coconut no sweet, walnuts(toasted), pecans(slightly toasted), peanuts, or pistachios)
2 tsp vanilla
Other tasty ingredients you could add: (1/4 C.) each. for other sweet, or salty or bacon, instant coffee you can just use 1 tsp to 1 tbsp.
instant coffee at very end of stove-top process,
after chocolate is melted in, candied cherries, Pretzels, cookies, popped rice, raisins, dried fruit, Bacon that still considered chewy but still has crispy texture. coconut if you didn't add prior.

Directions
1)be sure to do this before you do recipe, take and a.foil butter it bottom of pan where fudge will sit and freeze it. Because it crucial step. Miss it and your fudge won't set and other issue is everyone assume refrigerating is necessary right but I thinking freezing the pan helps setting it takes only thirty minutes maybe even less you can have more time to cut.
2) large sauce pan or or pot, spray cooking spray, melt chocolate and condense milk until creamy, Stir in rough texture and add vanilla if your going use it.
3) it take 2 hours set if you don't do butter pan set aside in freezer method. if you set aside in freezer the pan you end up saving yourself hour... to set in freezer again or fridge depending on available space.

Notes
If you need ideas bettycrocker had some ideas but you have also assume what tastes good too.
If your adding flavor don't add vanilla -> vanilla is flavoring.
Mint is common flavoring, try mint alcohol flavor would be interesting but add fresh mint would add color to top of fudge as it sets.
*Second type chocolate same sort method. but whatever is left, here is idea what double chocolate idea was suppose to be. Idea was put on chocolate on cooled already chocolate which I seem to think is impossible because maybe it would worked. But I think might never worked it cooled chocolates would work maybe but that just my general idea I tried it, It failed. So if your trying make it work you have to have freezer that walk in and have no chances of failure. other issue that I ran into that big problem for me...not all chocolates work together taste your chocolates first and what textures first before you make double chocolate layer I was thinking three type fudge would something gawk at but since I have no walk in freezer to make this amazing feat. Anyone else up for grab on it your welcome to try it.
Probably the reason why Bettycrocker took it down.
Nuts(?) : if you have people with nut allergies I recommend using dried fruit and your own made cookies added in broken up into recipe. Or Popped Rice. Why nuts toasted because it tastes better?
Chocolate note: chocolate that tastes good, even bars, or something you love to eat as fudge in your existence. I noted people assume toll house is good...don't I can only assume it only good for cookies and bars. Fudge will last about(5 mos to half a year) Guitard is good timely brand but where I live this brand is sold out everyday or I never find it.

Heat the oil in a large pot over high heat. Add the shallot and sauté until brown, about 3 to 5 minutes. Add the chicken and sauté until it is slightly browned, about 5 minutes.
Add the sauce mixture and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium and cook, stirring occasionally.
After 10 minutes, add the mushrooms. Continue to stir occasionally until the sauce has reduced by half, about 12 to 20 minutes depending on the pot size.
Serve over rice (or Quinoa and Kale from Costco) and garnish with cilantro.

Notes
Can substitute 1/4 tsp of red pepper powder for the chili peppers, otherwise follow recipe. The mushrooms were my daughter’s suggestion, they are optional. I use a MicroPlane to make the ginger almost a paste; my family complained a bit about the larger pieces when I cut them up by hand. When I use Thai chilies, I remove them before adding the sauce to the chicken.

Marbled Pumpkin Cheesecake
From Sunset Magazine, this is a great Thanksgiving dessert. If you can't get the crust to work out, use the pre-made graham cracker crusts.
Ingredients
Crust
8 Ounces Gingersnap cookies, crumbled
2 Tablespoons granulated sugar
3 Tablespoons butter (or margarine), melted
Filling
3/4 cup brown sugar, firmly packed
16 ounces Philadelphia cream cheese,
2 large eggs
1 1/2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
1 pound pumpkin, canned
8 Ounces Gingersnap cookies, crumbled
2 Tablespoons granulated sugar
3 Tablespoons butter (or margarine), melted
Filling
3/4 cup brown sugar, firmly packed
16 ounces Philadelphia cream cheese,
2 large eggs
1 1/2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
1 pound pumpkin, canned
Directions
Crust
a. Preheat oven to 325°F.
b. Crush enough cookies to make 1 3/4 cups crumbs.
c. In a 9" cheesecake pan with removable rim, mix cookie crumbs, granulated sugar, and butter.
d. Press over bottom and about 1 inch up pan sides.
e. Bake crust in a 325º oven until slightly browned, about 15 minutes.
f. If you can't make a good crumb crust, buy a Graham cracker one at the store. It is not as good, though.
2. Filling
a. Meanwhile, in a food processor or in a bowl with a mixer, blend cream cheese, brown sugar, and eggs until smooth.
b. Spoon 1/2 cup of the cheese mixture into a small bowl.
c. Add spice and pumpkin to remaining cheese mixture and mix well.
Assembly and cooking
a. Pour pumpkin filling into hot or cool crust.
b. Drop rounded tablespoons of the reserved cheese mixture onto the pumpkin filling. With a knife tip, swirl to marble the white and orange mixtures.
c. Bake in a 325 oven for about 1 hour; until the center barely jiggles when cake is gently shaken.
d. Cool on a rack. Cover and chill until cold, at least 2 1/2 hours.
e. Run a knife between the cake and pan rim; remove rim.

Notes
Since I use the pre-made crusts, I usually have some filling left over, so I pick up some graham cracker tart shells (mini pie crusts) and make mini cheesecakes. Recommended.
