Roasted Garlic
I use this roasted garlic with crusty bread or add to other dishes
calling for garlic.

4 whole garlic bulbs
2 tablespoons butter
1/2 teaspoon dried leaf thyme
1/4 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/3 cup chicken broth

Carefully remove the outer papery peel from the garlic bulbs, leaving the whole heads intact. Arrange the garlic bulbs in a small baking dish.
Dot with the butter; sprinkle with the thyme, pepper, and coarse salt.

Pour the chicken broth into the dish. Cover dish tightly with foil and bake at 350, basting frequently, for 1 hour. Uncover and bake 15 minutes
longer.

Can anyone tell me where the name of the recipe Duck Sauce came from? I had never heard of duck sauce until I saw the recipes in Nancy' Kitchen news letter , then the other day on a commercial this man says, Pepsid something or and other can relieve indigestion faster than you can say "duck sauce" How funny. Then this last Saturday, we were attending a 50th wedding anniversary of our friends, Gordon and Shirley Hullum and their granddaughter, ask if anyone had eaten duck sauce. She said she was at a restaurant recently and they served duck sauce. Dorothy in Texas

To Tona in Bama from August 5 newsletter:
I have some questions about your recipe. It sounds easy, but without the size and amounts, it is hard to shop for the ingredients. There are so many choices! Have you ever used peaches?

Strawberry Cake
1 Sugarfree Angel Food Cake
(From scratch, boxed or already prepared? If prepared, the weight, and whole or in pieces)
1 Box Sugarfree Strawberry Jell-o
(size)
1 Package Strawberries (no sugar)
(fresh or frozen and the size or amount? Whole or sliced?)
Jell-o mold 9
(Is this the number of cups?)

Spray a mold with a cooking oil such as Pam. Place the strawberries in the mold. Put the cake on top of the strawberries. Mix the jell-o with 1 cup boiling water. Add 1/2 cup cold water to the mixture. Pour over the cake and seal with the lid. Refrigerate for at least 3 hours. Spring out onto a place. Serve and enjoy. You can also use a springout cheese cake pan. If you do just cover with foil.

Thank you, Nancy, for all the time you spend at the computer. This is not easy on the wrists, back, legs and eyes. As others have said before, you
and your furry friends are much appreciated and loved.


Hi Nancy:

This is for Dale in NC needing cake recipes for the church contest. This is an old recipe, but very good and quite moist. I use the frosting recipe I am enclosing also. Good luck to Dale and please let us know how you make out.

Chocolate Cake
1 Cup sugar
1/2 C cocoa
1-1/2 Cups flour
1 egg
1 teaspoon soda
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 Cup sour milk ( I just add about a teaspoon of vinegar to the milk to sour it)
1/2 Cup hot water
1/2 shortening (1/4 C oleo & 1/2 C Crisco)
dash of salt

Place all items in a bowl and mix well, either with mixer or by hand. Bake 350 for 20 minutes. I check mine at 20 then it usually takes a little longer. Test with a toothpick. I use a 9 x 13 pan. Now the frosting. Delish.

Fluffy Frosting
1/2 C Crisco
1/2 C oleo
1 C sugar
Cream these ingredients and then add:
1 egg white
1/2 C scalded milk (cooled)
1 teaspoon vanilla
Dash of salt
Beat well and frost the cake. Best of luck with your adventure


Someone wrote in wanting a good custard recipe. Sorry, but I did not keep the name or date of newsletter. Since then, I have seen ONLY two recipes for Custard Pie, and I did not think that was what was desired. Here is my recipe for custard, the best I have eaten anywhere! It is not a low fat recipe, maybe that is why it is so good. I use it to make use of egg yolks when I use the whites for other recipes.
Irma in Iowa.

ABSOLUTELY PERFECT CUSTARD
8 egg yolks
1/4 tsp. salt
1/2 cup sugar
1 tsp. vanilla
3 cups milk
1/2 cup cream
1 tsp. cinnamon OR nutmeg
Beat egg yolks with mixer until thick and lemon colored, add sugar, beat well. Stir in cream, salt, vanilla and spice. Heat milk until steaming. Add slowly to mixture, stir gently. Pour into custard cups that have been placed in a pan of hot water. Bake in 375 degree oven for about 45 minutes.
Can test for doneness if tops are slightly brown. Custard will still "wiggle" in cups when done. Remove from oven and from pan of water to cool. Better if chilled to serve.
Recipe may be easily cut in half.


Chicken Potato Bake
Made with cooked leftover chicken and potatoes.

1/2 pound sliced mushrooms
3 tablespoons butter
1 cup chopped onions
2 cups cooked diced chicken
2 cups cooked diced potatoes
1 tablespoon flour
1 cup milk or half-and-half
2 teaspoons salt, or to taste
1/4 teaspoon pepper
buttered bread crumbs for topping

Heat butter in a heavy skillet; sauté mushrooms and onions until tender and lightly browned. Stir in flour until dissolved. Gradually add milk, stirring and cooking until thickened. In a 1 1/2 quart lightly greased casserole, combine chicken, potatoes, and mushroom mixture, along with the salt and pepper. Top with bread crumbs. Bake at 350 for 20 to 30 minutes, or until hot and bubbly. Serves 4.

Hi! Quick note for Mary G in CA. A TNT way to rid oily type fish of fish odors is to smear the filets with a layer of Helman's mayonnaise and then bake as usual. I then squeeze fresh lemon over. It's really good. Also, I had the Vicks vapor rub on chest with a thick piece of flannel but better still to loosen cold grip on chest was raw garlic rubbed on my feet bottoms and then put on a pair of thick wooly socks and go to bed. This heats up your feet and works. This was called Russian Penicillin, chemically we could go into how it works by the oil going into your bloodstream. I prefer natural methods.

For Madelyn of Ar.
who had 2 problems with her computer (turning 90 & 180 deg)
Right click your mouse in the middle of the screen till you get menu with Save As Scheme / Graphics Options / Display Mode, etc. etc. Click Graphics Options then Graphics Properties, then Rotation. Make sure that the "Enable Rotation" is NOT TICKED. This should solve your problem.

To Mary Jo who bought her electric pressure cooker from QVC---I looked on theCooks Essential website, and I can't figure out which model, style # etc., the one you use is.

Could you please give some more specifics, so I can determine which one to buy.?? THANKS. Also, does anyone else use an ELECTRIC pressure cooker. I am also, afraid of the other ones.

I would love some TNT suggestions on which ELECTRIC pressure cooker to buy. The brand, size, model no. price of it, etc.
Thank you! Sue


This is for Rose from N.C.
Her request was in the 8-18-06 newsletter. I use a product called Goo-Gone. You can get it in most stores near the mop and cleaning supply aisle. It is an awesome product. Just follow the instructions. Spray on area, let set for a few minutes, and you will be amazed.

I want to thank Nad in MO, Beth in WV, Bob in Ohio wife and Geralyn in NC for all their suggestions for getting urine smell out of clothes. I really appreciate all the replies and I can't wait to try out some of the suggestions. Also a thank you to Peggy in East Tennessee for the refrigerator pickles recipe. I hope to try this soon. Hey all you nancylanders out there I have two questions to ask: Does anyone have a molasses jumble cookie recipe they could share? and also I've been looking for a burrito recipe that has I think ground beef, potatoes, rice & beans in it wrapped in a floured tortilla. If anyone has a recipe like this could you please share as I haven't had these since I was a kid! Thanks so much in advance! Nancy thanks for all the hard work you put in to this website that makes it so great. I hope you get your computer problems straighten out with the yahoo groups! Mary G.in CA.


To Tona in Bama: Made the Layered Chicken Casserole in the January 30st Newsletter It was quite good, but I felt that 2 cups of butter was quite a bit and made it a little greasy. Thought perhaps it was an error in printing? Maybe it was to be ˝ a cup?

Please keep your recipes coming Tona. I have tried most all and really enjoyed all of them. This is the first one I had a question to ask you about.

There are so many excellent contributors to the newsletter and I certainly have gleaned yummy recipes from all.

Nancy, thank you! thank you for all the great effort you put into this newsletter for we really reap tremendous rewards. Have not seen pictures of your furry family in quite awhile. Hope you and they are well.

This is for MaggieB. In the February 17 newsletter she asked about a low-cal cabbage soup. I think I had sent this one in some time before, but here it is again. This is really a good soup. Hope this is what she needs. Thanks. Nell in VA

CABBAGE SOUP
I head of cabbage, cut into chunks
6 onions, chopped
2 green peppers, chopped
1 bunch green scallions, chopped
1 large can tomato juice
28 oz. can crushed tomatoes (regular canned tomatoes will do)
1 pkg. dried onion soup mix
1 bunch celery , chopped
6 carrots, chopped
16 oz. can green beans
Black pepper to taste
Can add a couple bouillon cubes

Bring to a boil and boil for 10 minutes.
Simmer until veggies are soft...about 2 hours.

This will keep several days in the refrigerator. Cabbage soup has virtually no fat, so you can eat all you want.

NOTE: If you are having crackers with the soup, be sure to checkout the calories in the crackers so you don't ruin a good thing.


Hi Nancy, this is for Maggie B. (2-17 newsletter)

Peel-A-Pound Soup
1 head cabbage
2 large onions
1 stalk celery
1 green pepper
1 (15-16 oz.) can tomatoes
