    Title: Lemon Chiffon Pie
    Categories: Pies, Pastry, Citrus, Dairy, Chocolate
    Yield: 6 Servings

    Dough; for single-crust pie
    1 oz Env unflavored gelatin
    1/4 c Water
    1 c Sugar; divided
    1/4 ts Salt
    5 lg Egg yolks
    1/2 c Lemon juice
    2 c Heavy whipping cream
    4 dr Yellow food coloring
    - (optional)

    MMMMM---------------------CHOCOLATE DRIZZLE--------------------------
    1/3 c Semisweet chocolate chips
    2 ts Shortening

    On a lightly floured surface, roll dough to a 1/8" thick circle;
    transfer to a 9" pie plate. Trim to 1/2" beyond rim of plate; flute
    edge. Refrigerate 30 minutes. Set oven @ 425?F/218?C.

    Line crust with a double thickness of foil. Fill with pie weights,
    dried beans or uncooked rice. Bake on a lower oven rack until edge
    is golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove foil and weights; bake
    until bottom is golden brown, 3 to 6 minutes longer. Cool on a wire
    rack.

    In a small saucepan, sprinkle gelatin over water; let stand
    2 minutes to soften. Add 1/2 cup sugar and salt. Cook and stir over
    low heat until sugar is dissolved.

    In a medium bowl, beat egg yolks on high speed about 5 minutes or
    until pale yellow. Gradually drizzle hot gelatin mixture into
    yolks, beating constantly. Return yolk mixture to same saucepan.
    Stir in lemon juice. Cook over low heat until mixture thickens and
    bubbles around the edges, stirring constantly. Cool to room
    temperature. In a large bowl, combine cream, food coloring if
    desired and remaining sugar. Beat a high speed until soft peaks
    form. Add cooled lemon mixture. Continue beating at high speed
    until stiff peaks form.

    Spoon filling into crust. Refrigerate at least 2 hours before
    serving. Or, if desired, layer filling with chocolate drizzle:
    Spoon half of filling into crust. In a microwave, melt chocolate
    and shortening; stir until smooth. Transfer to a pastry bag with a
    small round tip. Spoon half of lemon filling into crust. Drizzle
    half of the melted chocolate over filling. Top with remaining
    filling. Drizzle remaining chocolate over pie. Refrigerate at least
    2 hours before serving.

    Hi Ben,

    I'm back................after about 2 weeks of no Fido. Don't know why
    but it was most frustrating.

    Title: Lemon Chiffon Pie
    Categories: Pies, Pastry, Citrus, Dairy, Chocolate
    Yield: 6 Servings

    Looks yummy, never really thought of a chocolate drizzle for lemon pie
    but I guess it's worth trying.

    A Whataburger just opened up this past Tnursday in town, lines were out
    the door. We stopped in on Saturday night, had to wait about 15 minutes
    before we got inside, then placed our to go order and had to wait
    another 20 mnutes or so before it was ready. Took it home--I ordered a
    junior with no mustard and onion rings. Burger came out--a regular size
    patty on a generic hamburger bun with tomato, chopped onions and 3/4
    wilted (still had a small section of crunch) lettuce. Steve got the
    patty melt (2 burgers with cheese, not sure what else on bread) and
    onion rings. This will not be a regular stop for us; we were much less
    than impressed with the meal.

    Hi Ruth,

    I'm back................after about 2 weeks of no Fido. Don't know why but it was most frustrating.

    Ugh.. Since i don't run my own BBS, if that happened to me, i'd just hop
    over to a different BBS and use it instead.

    A Whataburger just opened up this past Tnursday in town, lines were out

    Bummer on that fats food experience. Last year my cousin took me to
    In-N-Out Burger for my first time. I liked that the place was clean and
    had wide windows so i could watch them working in the kitchen while we
    were in the drive-through. To me it seemed high priced. The food was
    fine, but nothing to write home about. They always have big lines, so
    they must be doing something right.

    Tomorrow i plan to go to a Thai place with my cousin. I haven't totally decided yet what i want to get.

    Categories : Italian Grains

    Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
    -------- ------------ --------------------------------
    7 c Polenta
    1/3 oz Dried porcini or
    - other wild mushrooms
    3 tb Olive oil
    3 tb Butter
    1 md Onion -- minced
    3 tb Italian parsley -- minced
    1 lg Carrot -- minced
    1 lg Celery rib -- minced
    1 lb Lean ground beef
    3 tb Tomato paste
    2/3 c Dry red wine
    35 oz Can plum tomatoes -- drained
    Salt & ground black pepper
    2/3 lb Pecorino cheese -- grated

    Pour polenta on an oiled work surface and spread 1/4" thick. Let
    stand until cooled completely and firm, about 15 minutes. Cut into
    3" squares; set aside. Can transfer squares to a baking sheet,
    cover and refrigerate overnight.

    Sauce:

    Soak dried mushrooms in 1/3 cup warm water until softened, about
    30 minutes. Strain liquid through a fine sieve; reserve. Chop
    mushrooms coarse.

    To Cook:

    Heat oil and butter in a large skillet. Add onions, parsley,
    carrots, and celery; saute until softened, about 10 minutes. Add
    ground meat; saute until lightly browned, about 8 minutes. Stir in
    mushrooms, reserved mushroom soaking liquid, tomato paste, and
    wine; simmer for 5 minutes. Add tomatoes and their reserved juice;
    partially cover and simmer until sauce thickens slightly, about
    30 minutes. Season this sauce with 1 ts salt and 1/2 ts pepper or
    to taste. Can cool, cover, and refrigerate overnight.

    Heat oven to 450?F. Arrange half of the polenta squares in the
    bottom of an oiled 13x9" baking pan. Pour half the sauce over the
    polenta squares; spread to cover. Sprinkle half the grated cheese
    over the sauce. Repeat with another layer of each. Bake until
    lasagne is heated through and cheese is golden brown, 15 to
    20 minutes; let stand 10 minutes, cut into squares and serve.
