  • Kiddie Casserole

    Preparation:

    Slice the potatoes (skins on if you prefer) thinly and boil until almost done. Drain and set aside.

    Cook sausages according to specifications, and slice into chunks. Combine them with the baked beans in a casserole dish. Layer the potatoes on top, covering everything underneath. depending on your casserole dish, you may need more potato.

    In a separate pan, heat the oil on medium heat, and fry the chopped onion until soft. Add 1/4 of the soymilk and once hot, whisk the flour in slowly. Then add the rest of the soymilk while stirring. Once gently bubbling, take the pan off the heat and add the remaining ingredients. Stir thoroughly, then pour the milky sauce over the potatoes and bake in a 220 degree centigrade (425 Fahrenheit) oven for 20-30 minutes, until brown and bubbly.

    Kids love this one, but I'll confess, I'm 22 and make this for myself all the time!

  • Dalmatian Lenten Cabbage Soup - Broeta de Verza de Magro

    This meatless soup was the traditional beginning of Dalmatian Vigil meals, especially Christmas Eve, when the chill of the Bora (a strong wind from the east) gives cabbage added bite. It calls for fish broth, which the cook would have had on hand because boiled fish is one of the standard second courses of a Vigil meal.

    Prep Time: 30 minutes
    Cook Time: 45 minutes

    Ingredients:

    • Savoy cabbage (amounts given below)
    • Potatoes
    • One onion
    • Fish broth (from boiling a fish, or canned)
    • Garlic
    • A bay leaf
    • Bread
    • Salt and pepper

    Preparation:

    Dice into half-inch (1-cm) cubes a head of Savoy cabbage, two peeled potatoes, and an onion.

    Simmer the vegetables until tender in the broth from boiling the fish (strain it first), adding a minced clove of garlic, a bay leaf, and salt and pepper to taste to the pot.

    While the soup is cooking, toast several slices of bread. Line your soup bowls with them, ladle the soup over it, and serve.

  • Slow Roasted Root Vegetables

    Thanks to our customer Lawrence Duncan for this delicious and heart-warming recipe!

    Ingredients:

    • 3 large potatoes
    • 3 large carrots
    • 3 large beets
    • 8 large garlic cloves, peeled
    • 2 tsp rosemary, fresh or powdered
    • 2 tsp cumin, ground
    • 1 tbsp black pepper, course ground
    • 2 tsp sea salt

    Directions:

    Preheat oven to 250 deg F. This is a "low & slow" recipe, which takes a little bit of patience, but well worth it! You can vary the ratio of vegetables to suit your tastes, as well as the choice and amounts of herbs and spices.

    Cut the potatoes, carrots, and beets into large chunks. The size of the chunks determines which vegetable cook the fastest: the potatoes and beets should be the largest chunks, with the carrots being a little smaller / thinner. You'll get the feel for the right size with practice.

    Place the chunked potatoes, carrots, and beets in a large mixing bowl, along with the peeled garlic cloves. Add oil and sprinkle in the spices, while stirring until all the vegetables are thoroughly coated.

    Spread the mixture evenly onto a baking tray, and place into the oven. Cook for about 2 hours, or until done.

    Serves: 3 - 4

    Preparation time: 2 1/2 hours
