I’m telling EVERYONE about this book.,
I’m not one to review items online but I was so excited about this cookbook and I’ve been cooking out of it since it landed on my doorstep. I’ve been taking notes on everything I’ve made so far and it seems to have helped many on Facebook and pushed some to go ahead and buy this book. I figured I could help a couple more make their decision with my thoughts on the recipes. Sorry. I just copied this from my FB page. All names have been changed to protect the innocent and the punctuation is less than stellar.
My Big Fat Recipe Post – Today I decided to hole up in the kitchen and play….all day. I’ve been dying to try out so many recipes in the cookbook, Against All Grain, and today was my day to destroy my kitchen and fill some bellies. Here’s what we learned.
Apple Sandwiches (p. 200) – both kids loved to eat this as I made them. There’s no real secret here it’s just an innovative use of an apple. We topped ours with peanut butter (yeah yeah not paleo,) raw honey and raw pumpkin seeds. I sent two to school with “M” as requested, even though I warned her they would brown a little from being cut. She said she didn’t mind. She lied. Both sandwiches came home with one bite out of them. This made me NOT HAPPY. This will be an at home snack from now on.
Slow Cooker Sesame-Orange Chicken (p 130) with Basic Cauli-Rice (p.118.) It was SUPER easy and I already had most everything stocked except for the chicken and the cauliflower. THIS WILL BE MADE AGAIN!!! I served it to four children who eat actual food, (T Doesn’t count) the hubs and my mother-in-law. They all loved it and most everyone went back for seconds. “MG” our niece, does NOT like cauliflower but she was willing to try and loved this version. Two forks up!
Fruit Roll Ups (p.204) – This is not a terribly original recipe but the picture looked good so I decided to revisit the making of the fruit leather for the sake of school lunches. I used half blueberries half strawberries. I think the pureed sauce would have been awesome on pancakes or as a spread. I didn’t pour the mixture through a sieve either because I’m lazy and it didn’t seem that important considering the consistency of the mixture. It was pretty thick. I have a circular dehydrator so instead of lining the trays with parchment I simply rubbed them down with coconut oil. I had a hard time getting the mixture thinned out evenly on the sheets so our cooking time was pretty much double what it called for in the book. The thinner areas around the outside of the ring did get a little crispy but I brushed them with water (as suggested) and that took care of that. After the mixture was done drying I peeled it off the tray and placed it on parchment paper and rolled it up and cut it in to strips. Perhaps a little less lemon juice next time. “M” said they were a bit tart.
Carne Asada Beef Jerky (p.66) – I put together the marinade this morning and the flank steak is still chilling in the fridge awaiting its delicious but tediously long transformation in the dehydrator tomorrow. I did, however, taste the marinade before adding the beef strips and it’s delicious with a little kick of cayenne that I’m hoping “M” doesn’t mind. More on this tomorrow. Follow-up -
Chicken-Zoodle Soup (p.198) – “M’s” all time favorite soup, hands down, no exceptions, is chicken noodle. I make it for her all the time and she was a bit skeptical when I told her I was replacing her noodles with zucchini noodles. I’d have to say that your experience with this soup is TOTALLY dependent on your broth. I made my own from left over roasted chickens so it’s flavored with garlic and a variety of other herbs as a result of its previous life. I used left over chicken from a previous meal instead of chicken breasts and this turned out pretty great. “M” thought it was delicious! She said the zucchini noodles had “a better texture and more flavor than regular noodles.” A skeptic no more, she slurped down three bowls of soup with “Fauxdools.”
Braised Chicken in Artichoke-Mushroom Sauce (p. 132) – I made this Saturday night and my feeling was and still is “meh.” First, I didn’t use home made broth, second, I didn’t put in mushrooms (didn’t have any on hand) and third I didn’t used marinated artichoke hearts (mine were packed in water) but I did throw in a good dose of home made dry Italian dressing seasoning hoping to even the odds. I found it bland and uninspiring. I’m convinced I need to do over and use the correct ingredients this time BUT this did serve as the chicken for my Chicken Zoodle Soup so I don’t regret the time and effort put in.
Mint-Chip Ice Cream (p.282) – “M” said this is not too sweet and it doesn’t taste like honey like some ice creams we’ve made without sugar. It’s refreshing with an icy milkiness that’s appealing but not “creamy.” There’s no need for food coloring in my opinion. It came out a nice mellow green. We didn’t let it sit in the…
