assistant: Ah, always a snag.
We went from winter to summer in a 2-day span, and the weather has
been hostile to pretty much all living things, possibly excepting
bugs. This weekend I had the electric blanket on high (it bottomed
out at 29 one recent night), but Monday and Tuesday were 93 and 94.
I originally sent this to Lyn Ortiz on another conference:
Walnut-stuffed mushrooms, Clyde Christensen
serves 4-6
16-24   large mushrooms
1 1/2 T butter, melted
2     T onion, minced
  1/4 t garlic, minced
1     c fine breadcrumbs
  1/4 c Parmesan, grated
3     T walnuts, chopped
  1/2 t salt or to taste
  1/4 t pepper or to taste
        sherry (subst. chicken stock)
        butter
        parsley, chopped
Brush mushrooms clean. Remove stems. Brush caps with butter and set
aside. Mince stems and saute with onion and garlic in remaining
butter. Add crumbs, cheese, walnuts. Season to taste. Moisten with
sherry or stock. Fill caps with stuffing and dot with more butter.
Arrange in a buttered baking dish and bake at 400 for 10-15 min or
until mushrooms are tender and tops are browned. Garnish with parsley.

assistant: noticed
I had another scholarship meeting (we gave $1000 scholarships to
a violinist and a violist and $500 study grants to 3 pianists,
an oboist, a composer, and a violinist - all secondary school
students), and after that, we went to the chairwoman's house
for supper, and had salmon and vegetables, all grilled plain
with only a light brushing of olive oil and balsamic vinegar.
The highlight was the sliced ceps, which in their marinated
cooked state and in the rather poor light (it was 9 PM) didn't
strongly advertise the pores.
- - -
For supper today before my concert, my ex and I had gotten
together to meet with the painter who is to fix up our house
for sale, and I made the following (I got the mushrooms and
the steak both for $2 a pound)
Sliced steak with mushrooms
serves 2
3/4 lb sirloin
1/4 lb shiitake mushrooms (Bud Zilko, you may use morels)
1      garlic, mashed
       olive oil (clarified butter ok)
1/8 c  stock
1/4 c  dry red wine
1/8 c  balsamic vinegar
       knob of butter
2      toast
Cut meat into matchsticks. Cut mushrooms into matchsticks.
Sizzle garlic in oil. When oil is hot, remove the garlic and
add meat. Stir constantly for 30 sec over high heat. Add
mushrooms and cook for 30 sec. Remove meat and mushrooms
to a warm plate. Deglaze with stock, wine, and vinegar.
Add butter and swirl in. Add meat and mushrooms and toss
to coat. Portion over toast.
Ate this with an '89 Johannisberger Erntebringer kabinett,
which despite being a strange match was the richest wine
available, all the good stuff being at a friend's cellar.
It actually went okay (no fireworks, but neither dish was
damaged).

How odd, 'cos I only just typed it in myself!
Yup, it's a fluid ounce. The reason I use them is because UK pints are 5/4ths
US pints, and as I'm English by birth, if I post recipes with pints, people
won't know which kind I mean. If I DO post recipes with pints, they will
usually be reposts of recipes I've grabbed here or elsewhere, and will
probably therefore by US (16 fl oz) pints.

Here's a classic rural American dish:
Chicken a la King
Yankee Magazine 7/81, Great New England Cooks: Mary Bosqui
1    T butter
1    c mushrooms, sliced
2    T green pepper, chopped
6    T flour
 1/2 t salt
 1/2 t celery salt
       cayenne
 3/4 c whole milk
 3/4 c light cream
1    c chicken stock
2    c cooked chicken, diced
1    T parsley, chopped
1    T pimento, minced
       s&p
Melt butter. Saute mushrooms and pepper 5 min. Mix flour, salt,
celery salt, and cayenne. Add this mixture to butter to make
a sort of roux. Add liquids gradually, stirring all the while.
Add the remaining ingredients and heat through. Correct seasoning
and serve over rice, noodles, or toast.

  Blue Ribbon Recipes. I'll post a few recipes tonight that I think
  look interesting. Remember I just got the book tonight so I haven't
  tried any of them. Peel, core and slice apples into 1/4 inch slices.
  Peel and thinly slice onions. Layer the onion slices in a buttered 9
  1/2 inch pyrex pie plate. Put a layer of apples on onion slices,
  another layer of onions, ending with apples. Pour one cup of bouillon
  over the layers, then sprinkle cracker crumbs on top. Drizzle melted
  butter over the crumbs. Bake in oven at 350 degrees for 30 minutes or

      Title: SAUCEY BLACK BEANS
 Categories: Vegetables, Vidalia
      Yield: 1 servings
      4 c  Dry black beans, soaked
           Overnight
     12 c  Water
           Grated peel from one orange
      4    Vidalia onions, chopped
    1/2 cn Mild green chilis
      2    16 oz cans stewed or canned
           Tomatoes
      1 ts Molido (dried Mexican
           Oregeno)
      4    Cloves minced garlic
  Drain the soaking water from the beans and add the 12c water.  Bring
  to a boil, reduce heat and cook at a fast simmer for 1 to 1 1/2
  hours, when beans just start to get soft. Add all other ingredients
  except the molido and cook until beans are truly soft. Add molido,
  stir in well, turn off burner and allow to sit for 30 minutes. Serve
  over rice or corn bread, or use in enchiladas.
  Beans behave slightly differently with every batch I buy, so adjust
  the cooking time according to taste.  I can tell by the smell that
  they are done. If the beans seem too liquid, leave the lid off after
  adding the onions and allow them to cook down.
  NOTE:  I personally prefer 2t of molido, but this is a bit much for
  some folks. I'll bet it would be good with the fresh stuff, if I
  could ever find it!

  You can continue to add more onions to mixture as necessary for up to
  four additions. After that, drain, make new marinade and transfer
  onions. If some have not been rotated through, throw out the very
  soft slices.
