Apple Raisin Mushroom Sauce Food

HERB AND APPLE STUFFING

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300 degrees F.
• Put the bread cubes on a 13 by 18 by 1-inch baking sheet and bake them in the oven for 7 minutes.
• In a large saute pan, melt the butter and add the onion, celery, apples, parsley, rosemary, salt, and pepper. Saute for 10 minutes, until the mixture is soft.
• Combine the bread cubes and cooked vegetables in a large bowl and add the chicken stock, and almonds, if desired.
• Place the stuffing into the main cavity of the turkey and into the neck of the bird. I cook a 12-pound turkey for 2 1/2 hours at 350 degrees F in a preheated oven. Make sure the stuffing in the cavity is secured by wrapping the legs tightly with string.

APPLE AND MUSHROOM STUFFED ROASTED PORK LOIN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350F(180C).
• In a medium pan, melt the butter and add the chopped onion, mushrooms, and apple.
• Saute them for 2-3 minutes.
• Add the bread or the bread crumbs and mix.
• Season with salt, pepper, and nutmeg. Add the lemon zest.
• Remove the pan from the stove and set it aside.
• In the meantime, soak 6-7 toothpicks in water to prevent them from burning. Rinse the pork and pat dry.
• Then, make a 1-inch-deep incision down the length of the loin; do not cut all the way through. Open the meat like a book, so the meat lies flat.
• Cover the pork with plastic wrap and pound it with the flat side of a meat mallet until about 1/2 inch thick, starting from the middle and working outward. This will tenderize the meat and make it a bit easier to roll.
• Spread the apple and mushroom mixture over the surface of the pork loin.
• Starting with a long side, tightly roll up each tenderloin. Secure the seams with the toothpicks.
• Meanwhile, preheat a large pan.
• Brush the pork loin roll with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
• Place the meat in the pan and lightly brown all sides for 4-5 minutes.
• Transfer the meat to a baking pan.
• Deglaze the pan where you browned the meat with a cup of water or broth. Add salt and pepper to your taste and pour the sauce over the meat. Add the bay leaf to the sauce.
• Roast the pork loin for about 1 hour at 350F(180C) or until the temperature inside the thickest part of the meat is 155F(68C).
• Remove from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes.
• Slice and serve with your favorite vegetables.

APPLE MATZO KUGEL

• In a separate bowl, mix together the eggs, salt, sugar, oil and cinnamon. Add the soaked matzo, and mix well. Fold in the apples and raisins. Spoon into the prepared baking dish, and spread evenly.

PUMPKIN-RICOTTA PANCAKES WITH CHUNKY APPLE-RAISIN SAUCE

Steps:

• For the pancakes: Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F.
• In a large bowl, combine the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, cinnamon and a pinch of salt. Make a hole in the center of the flour mixture and add the pumpkin, ricotta, milk, vanilla and egg yolks and mix gently to combine.
• In a medium bowl, combine the egg whites with a pinch of salt. Using a mixer or whisk, beat the egg whites until they hold stiff peaks and look very fluffy, like snowdrifts.
• Using a rubber spatula, scoop a third of the egg whites into the pumpkin batter and fold to gently combine. Repeat this process two more times until all the whites have been added. Do this gently but quickly ¿ the idea is to not squish the air out of the egg whites. This is the secret to keeping the pancakes fluffy!
• Place a griddle over medium-high heat. When the pan is hot, drop a pat or two of butter onto the griddle. Once melted, schmear the butter around and wipe up any excess with a paper towel.
• Using a 2-ounce ladle, spoon ladlefuls of batter onto the buttered griddle to create 3-inch pancakes. Let the pancakes cook until bubbles appear on the surface, burst, and then stay open ¿ this will take about 5 minutes. Flip the pancakes and cook the second side until golden brown. Re-butter the griddle and repeat until all the batter is gone or everyone is full. Hold the finished pancakes in the warm oven.
• For the compote: Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the apples, cider, cinnamon stick, star anise and brown sugar. Bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer (BTB, RTS), then continue cooking until the liquid has reduced by half, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Add the maple syrup and raisins. Simmer for another 3 to 4 minutes or until slightly thickened. Remove from the heat and serve spooned over the pancakes, dusted with powdered sugar if desired. Try not to eat too many.
