(BBQ) MR. WIZARD'S SMOKED DEER JERKY

1 venison; round and hip


1 salt, black pepper and
1 cayenne, coriander or
1 garlic and ginger powder or
1 chili powder, onion powder
1 allspice

You want to make the jerky the same day the deer is killed. If it is
killed and cleaned in freezing weather you can stretch that out to two
days. Aged Venison makes funky jerky. If you don't use it immediately,
freeze it and use it in amounts you can comfortably process.

The better the quality of your spices, especially the pepper, the
better your jerky will be. Simple spice blending makes the best
jerky. Try not to exceed four spices. It's not supposed to have too
complex a mix. Makes it tastes funny.

Salt, Black Pepper, Cayenne, Coriander.


Salt, Black Pepper, Garlic Powder, Ginger Powder.
Salt, Chili Powder, Onion Powder, Allspice.

The round and back leg meat makes the best jerky. Everything else
should be made into sausage or chili meat.

Always cut the meat with the grain, not across. Make sure to remove
any fat and connective tissue.

If it's too tough to cut, freeze it for a couple of hours and it will
be easier to handle.

The smoke house should be 180 to 190 for the first thirty minutes and
down to 110 to 120 after that. Depending on how your drying it,
thickness and humidity it can take twelve to sixteen hours. When you
bend it and it splinters it's ready.

Mr. Wizard

IMHO save the backstrap its excellent grilled, we always cold smoked
over apple or cherry wood, salt/pepper/garlic. period. It never stayed
around long, by Christmas it was all gobbled up.

(NCL) BLUE CORN MUTTON TAMALES

1 filling
1 lb mutton or lamb, cut into inch piece; s
1 garlic clove, minced
1/2 medium sized onion, minced
1 teaspoon coriander, ground
1 red chili powder
1 salt
1 cup coarse white cornmeal
1 masa:
6 cup blue cornmeal
2 tablespoon baking powder
3 cup water
3 teaspoon oil
70 corn husks (soak corn husks
1 in hot water until
1 soft/pliable)

To make the filling, combine meat, garlic, onion, and coriander in a


large pot. Add water to cover and bring to a simmer. Cook until
tender, about 2 to 2 1/2 hours. Add red chili powder and salt, to
taste. Gradually add white cornmeal and stir, until filling is about
the same consistency as "runny oatmeal." Remove from the heat and let
sit while you make the masa. Mix the cornmeal and baking powder in a
large bowl. Add the water and oil and mix. Masa must be a bit thicker
than a pancake batter. Add small amounts of additional water and blue
corn meal to achieve needed consistency.

To assemble, lay corn husk out flat. Place masa inside middle of corn
husk about 1/4 to 1/2-inch thick. (depending upon amount of filling
used). Leave outer edges uncovered about 1-inch on each side. Place
filling in center of Masa and fold in each side. Next fold the bottom
upward.

Place tamale in 2nd corn husk and repeat with tamale in opposite

direction of first husk.

Fold and tie with small strips of corn husks. Place in boiling water
for 60 to 90 minutes.

(NCL) CORN STEW

1 tablespoon vegetable oil


1 1/2 lb lean ground beef
1 1/2 cup sweet green peppers,cored,
1 seeded, and chopped
1 1/2 cup yellow onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
8 large ears of corn (kernels cut
1 off) or 4 c. frozen corn
1 can (14 oz.) crushed tomatoes
4 teaspoon worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon each black pepper and chili
1 powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon ground red pepper (cayenne)
1 or to taste
2 cup zucchini or yellow summer
1 squash, thinly sliced

Pueblo Indians often simmered large pots of meat over an open fire and
added fresh vegetables, like corn and squash to the pot.

In a 6-quart Dutch oven, heat the oil over moderately high heat. Add
the beef and cook, stirring frequently, for 8 minutes or until
browned. Lower the heat, stir in the green peppers, onion, and
garlic, and simmer, uncovered, for 5 minutes or until tender,
stirring occasionally.

Stir in the corn, tomatoes, Worcestershire, black pepper, chili


powder, salt, and red pepper and bring to a boil. Lower the heat,
cover, and simmer for 15 minutes. Add the squash, then simmer for 5
minutes longer or until the vegetables are tender.

Note:

1. Before Indian Corn can be used for Corn Soup it must be thoroughly
dried. The corn is picked in the late fall, the husk pulled back, then
braided into three foot long bunches and hung up in the barn so the
crows can't get at it.

2. Before Indian Corn can be cooked into corn soup, it must first be
put through a process called "lying:. Lye is an extremely strong acid
found in hardwood ashes. This is what the traditional Native
Americans used as it was abundant from their campfires. This lying
process softens the outer shell somewhat and allows the two black
eyes found on each kernel of corn to be washed off after cooking. The
amount of wood ashes to be boiled with the corn is a very tricky task
to accomplish properly. Too much lye will destroy the corn and too
little will not do the job.

Therefore we leave this to the "lyers" of the tribe. The corn is


boiled with the hardwood ashes and water for about two hours. Then it
is washed to remove the eyes or hulls and to rinse the corn free of
Page 6

lye. The Tuscarora reservation has three or four "lyers" who perform
the difficult and messy task of "lying". A "lyer" will do a large
amount of corn in a day depending on how many orders she has to do
for the tribal members. I get my "lyed" corn from Mrs. Norton Rickard
of Blacknose Spring Road. Usually I order five quarts at $3.00 per
quart. I then divide it into three parts. I will freeze two of them
and cook one part...about a quart and one half. From: Mignonne

(NCL) MIGNONNE'S CHICKEN CHILI WITH CORN

3 boneless skinless chicken


1 breast halves, diced
1 can (14.5 oz.) diced tomatoes
1 with garlic & onion
1 pkg (1.25 oz.) chili seasoning
1 mix
1 can (15.25 oz.) whole kernel
1 corn
1 can (15 oz.) kidney beans,
1 drained

Combine chicken, undrained tomatoes and seasoning mix in medium


saucepan. Cook over medium heat 5 minutes or until chicken is done.
Add undrained corn and beans; simmer 5 minutes or until heated
through.

I usually use ground hamburger, but thought this was a nice change. I
also like chicken in my spaghetti sauce instead of hamburger. Also,
if it were me, I would use pinto or chili beans instead of the kidney
beans. And, of course, the corn is traditional in Cherokee chili.

(NCL) MIGNONNE'S DEER JERKY

1 venison
1/3 cup catsup
1/3 cup strong coffee
1 tablespoon worcestershire sauce
1/2 cup cider vinegar
1 tablespoon sugar
1 tablespoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground red pepper or
1 cayenne

To jerk meat one doesn't necessarily have to have any seasoning at


all. Most of us like to add a little flavor though. And really any
seasoning you wish to use is fine. Experimentation is sometimes the
way to go to get something just to suit ones own taste.

Here's a marinade that I like pretty well. Usually I end up


substituting something because for some reason I can't seem to have
everything on hand at the same time that it calls for. But I don't
let that bother me. This recipe is a good one to experiment with. If
you don't have cider vinegar, then try some other type of vinegar
such as rice wine or balsamic or how about lemon or lime juice. You
can use honey, molasses or brown sugar instead of white sugar. The
red pepper or cayenne is optional or can be adjusted to taste or you
can even use black or white pepper. Instead of catsup, try cocktail
sauce. The variations are endless and the subtle changes in flavor
with each substitution can be amazing. It's good to brush on meat
when bar-b-qing, but I have used it to marinate steaks too. It is
sweet, but kind of spicy at the same time.

In a saucepan, bring ingredients to a boil. Brush on grilled meats


while cooking or use as a marinade. Yield: 1 1/3 Cup

(NCL) MUTTON STEW

1 1/2 lb mutton pieces cut for stew


1 (about 6 loin chops)
1 kidney cleaned well and
1 separated (optional)
4 potatoes (approximately)
4 carrots (approximately)
6 small onions
1 mushrooms (optional)
1 small head cabbage (or
1 with wide noodles)
1 salt and pepper to taste
1 chilli pepper, seeded
1 mint leaves
1 rosemary
1 bay leaf (crushed)
5 tablespoon flour (approximate)
3 tablespoon lard, vegetable oil or
1 butter

Remember, lamb or mutton should be served either very cold or very


hot. Never lukewarm.

Mutton, or mature sheep can be used in most lamb recipe's but it does
take longer to cook to prevent toughness.

There is a paper thin sort of covering over the outside of the lamb or
mutton carcass. It isn't suppose to effect the flavor unless the meat
has been aged for some time. It depends on the cut you use. On chops
it should be removed. On the leg, if cooked whole it should be left
on. For stew I remove it first since I'm going to be cutting up the
meat. Now, if you buy the mutton it will probably be removed before
you get it, except on the leg. We usually cut the meat off the neck,
shanks and breasts into small pieces for stews.

Coat meat with flour. Brown meat in shortening. Cover with water and
bring to a boil. Add spices and simmer until tender, approximately 45
minutes. Add carrot pieces, potato pieces. Cook until tender. Add
remaining ingredients and cook until done. The cabbage and mushrooms
do not take long. If you prefer, thicken with flour for a more gravy
like consistency.

Please understand I had to approximate amounts. The recipe I have just


lists the ingredients and we're suppose to take it from there. Enjoy.
Served with bread for "sopping" and a salad it was a good hearty meal.

(NCL) SCRAMBLED EGGS WITH CACTUS

3 cactus pads or
8 oz can nopalitos, rinsed and
1 drained or
2 small zucchini, cut into
1 bite-size strips
1/2 cup chopped onion (1 medium)
1/2 cup chopped red or green sweet
1 pepper
1 tablespoon margarine or butter
8 eggs
1/3 cup milk
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 dash ground black pepper
1 flour tortillas, warmed
1 salsa

Carefully rinse cactus pads; pat dry. Holding cactus pads with tongs,
use a small, sharp knife to carefully trim off eyes around edges and
on both sides of pads; discard. Cut cactus pads into thin strips (you
should have about 2 cups).

In a large skillet cook cactus with onion and sweet pepper in


margarine or butter about 3 minutes or until onion is tender.

In a bowl beat eggs, milk, chili powder, salt, and black pepper with a
fork. Pour egg mixture over vegetables in skillet. Cook over medium
heat, without stirring, until mixture begins to set on the bottom and
around the edge.

Using a spatula or large spoon, lift and fold the partially cooked
eggs so the uncooked portion flows underneath. Continue cooking over
medium heat about 5 minutes more or until eggs are cooked through,
but are still glossy and moist.

Remove from heat. If desired, serve with tortillas and salsa. Makes 6
servings.

Tip: Nopales, the fleshy, oval pads of the prickly pear cactus, are
showing up in many supermarkets. Cooked, they're soft but crunchy,
with the slipperiness of okra and flavor of green beans. The pads
have tiny, sharp thorns that usually are removed at the market. To
remove any thorns, carefully hold the pad and scrape with a paring
knife. Use the tip of a sharp knife or a vegetable peeler to remove
the thorn bases and any blemishes.

SNOWCAP BEANS

Snowcap beans are a tan bean with a "snowcap" of white along the
side, and random spots of burgundy speckling overall. I think it is
one of the most beautiful of all beans in this book. Although I know
it is an oddball, found in a crop of some other bean, I can't help
but wonder if it is throwback to a bean that existed during the time
of the Incas, who used beans as a means of communication. Apparently,
beans of different colors, sizes and shapes were each given a
meaning. Runners would carry them and their important messages long
distances from one leader to another. handful of beans held a world
of information, which was deciphered by a cryptographer, who would
then announce the news of the day. Was there a bean then that looked
like the snowcap? What was its unique meaning?

APACHE DUMPLINGS

1 your favorite frybread


1 dough
1 ground beef
1 spanish/yellow onion
1 fresh garlic
1 canned mild or hot green
1 chili diced
1 ground cumin
1 salt and pepper to taste

These wonderful creations are stuffed with ground beef, green chilies,
onions and seasonings. The ratio for the filling is simple:

60% cooked, drained ground beef 20% cooked sm.diced/chopped onion 20%
green chilies diced canned and seasonings

Gently cook onion until just translucent(do not brown) Add/cook ground
beef, green chilies and two pinches of cumin. On med-low heat add
garlic (DO NOT BURN THE GARLIC!) let the garlic become slightly
areomatic. Season w/ salt and pepper, take off heat and set to the
side, let cool, so that you can work with your clean hands.

Take your already made Frybread dough and make small pieces about the
size of a tennis ball and roll out flat. Spoon your cooled meat
mixture diagonlly across the rolled out dough. Dont roll to thin or
too thick about a quarter inch. Fold the dough over the meat mix like
a taco and seal with fingertips. It should resemble a sharp football
shaped stuffed dumpling. Repeat technique untill you run out of dough
and meat mixture. Place the dumplings in just enough water or stock
to cover by one inch. Add a couple pinches of salt to the water to
your liking. not too salty. Simmer the Apache Footballs for about 30
to 45 minutes. Some of them will break open, thats ok it will add to
your broth. Try to keep them intact.(I like to break a couple open if
I have made alot of dumplings, it makes the broth very tasty.) Do not
boil. Let simmer untill the dough is cooked and the insides are very
hot. Serve piping hot to your loved ones.

I hope they turn out good for you. It takes practice, but when you
get all the seasonings the way you like it, you can teach your
children and family how to make "Apache Footballs". PEACE!

BBQ [SMOKER] VENISON

1 cup sugar
1 cup salt
1 cup burgandy wine
1 tablespoon worchester sauce
3 bay leaves
2 teaspoon garlic pepper
1 teaspoon dry marjoram leaves
1 teaspoon chili powder

If you need to tie the roast to keep it together, then do that. I


always do. Mix the brine ingredients in a NON-METAL container, add
the meat, the keep in the fridge for up to 48 hours. You need to
turn it over several times during the marination. After 48 hours
drain the brine, pat dry with paper towels, and air-dry for 2 hours.

Put it in the pit for 4-5 hours, smoke it up, chow down. Almost as
good as smoked Rocky Mountain Oysters!!!!

1/2 can tomatoes & juice (14 oz)
1 teaspoon brown sugar
1 masa harina [optional enough to thi; cken]

Carefully remove any and all visible fat as it gives any dish an
unpleasant flavor. In a large bowl, sprinkle the diced meat with the
chili powder, oregano, optional cayenne and cumin, stirring to mix
thoroughly. Cover and refrigerate for a few hours to allow the chili
spices to marinade the meat.

Fry the bacon. Drain it on paper towels and cut into 1/2" pieces and
reserve. Heat two tablespoons of the reserved bacon fat in a large
heavy pot over medium heat. Add the onions, garlic and green pepper
and cook until the onions are translucent. Add the diced and spiced
bear meat to the pot. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the meat is
evenly browned. Add the beer, tomatoes, optional hot sauceand
reserved bacon to the pot. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat and
simmer, uncovered, for 1 1/2 hours. Add more beer [or tomato juice or
beef stock] if neccessary to prevent sticking and scorching. Taste,
adjust seasonings, and simmer for 2 hours longer. Add the brown sugar

Ok this one is in the books. This is by far the best I've done to

BLUE CORN MUTTON TAMALES

By: Indian Pueblo Cultural Center Albuquerque

1 lb mutton or lamb, cut into


1/2 -inch pieces
1 garlic clove, minced
1/2 md sized onion, minced
1 ts coriander, ground
red chili powder
salt
1 c coarse white cornmeal
masa:
6 c blue cornmeal
2 tb baking powder
3 c water
3 ts oil
70 corn husks (soak corn husksin hot water); *

* until Soft/pliable
To make the filling, combine meat, garlic, onion, and coriander in a
large pot. Add water to cover and bring to a simmer. Cook until
tender, about 2 to 2 1/2 hours. Add red chili powder and salt, to
taste. Gradually add white cornmeal and stir, until filling is about
the same consistency as 'runny oatmeal.' Remove from the heat and let
sit while you make the masa. Mix the cornmeal and baking powder in a
large bowl. Add the water and oil and mix. Masa must be a bit thicker
than a pancake batter. Add small amounts of additional water and blue
corn meal to achieve needed consistency.

To assemble, lay corn husk out flat. Place masa inside middle of corn
husk about 1/4 to 1/2-inch thick. (depending upon amount of filling
used). Leave outer edges uncovered about 1-inch on each side. Place
filling in center of Masa and fold in each side. Next fold the bottom
upward.

Place tamale in 2nd corn husk and repeat with tamale in opposite
direction of first husk. Fold and tie with small strips of corn husks.
Place in boiling water for 60 to 90 minutes.

BRAISED WILD BOAR IN RED WINE GRAVY

500 gm wild boar [*]


1 flour, plain, for dusting.
1 salt
1 pepper
3 tablespoon oil
3 tablespoon butter
3 large onions, chopped.
1 large carrot, diced.
2 bay leaves
2 thyme sprigs, or rosemary
4 pepperberries -or-
1 pepper, ground -or-
1 wine, red
1 water [optional]
8 small potatoes
1/2 cup wine, madeira
1 illawarra plum & chilli sce [%]
1 parsley, chopped finely.

Cut wild boar into small chunks and dust with flour and seasoning.
Heat heavy-based pan, add half the oil and butter and saute meat.
Remove meat from pan and add remaining oil and butter. Saute onions.

Into a large, greased baking dish or casserole, add onions, meat,


carrots, herbs and ground pepper or pepperberries. Cover ingredients
with red wine, or mix of half red wine and half water. Covber dish
and bake at 180^C for one hour.

\reduce temperature slightly, add potatoes and cook for at least


another hour. If the liquid reduces below the meat, add extra wine or
water. If you feel energetic while waiting for the boar to cook, you
could enjoy making the AUSSIE BEER BREAD [See separate recipe] to
accompany this unusual and tasty meal. Alternatively, you could sit
and read a book until five minutes before serving time, when you'll
have to add the Madeira. That would also be a good time to butter the
freshly made beer bread or toast your usual staple.

Use large plates and serve this braised boar and spuds in a robust
fashion. Serve with ILLAWARRA PLUM AND CHILLI SAUCE [See separate
recipe] and sprinkle with lots of chopped parsley: it will still be
hearty! And remember, the sensible and wholesome thing to do is to
dunk your bread in the gravy!

BREAD MACHINE CORN-JALAPEÑO BREAD

By: www.bettycrocker.com

3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons water


2/3 cup green giant® niblets® frozen whole; kernel corn, thawed
2 tablespoons butter or margarine, softened
1 tablespoon chopped jalapeño chili
3 1/4 cups gold medal® better for breadt bread; flour
1/3 cup cornmeal
2 tablespoons sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
2 1/2 teaspoons bread machine or quick active dry y; east

This lively bread has corn and the added kick of jalapeño chilies. It's a
great bread to accompany any Southwest-style meal.
1.
Measure carefully, placing all ingredients in bread machine pan in the
order
recommended by the manufacturer.
2.
Select Basic/White cycle. Use Medium or Light crust color. Do not use delay
cycle. Remove baked bread from pan, and cool on wire rack.

Tips from the Kitchen

Success
If your bread machine has a 2-pound vertical pan, the loaf will be short
but
still will have good texture and flavor. If your bread machine has a
horizontal
pan, however, there isn't enough dough to make a good loaf of baked bread.
We also found that we didn't have good results in bread machines with
glass-dome
lids.

BRILL'S BAKED POTATO CHIPS

5 tablespoon olive oil or corn oil


2 tablespoon dark-colored miso
4 cloves garlic, peeled
1 teaspoon dried rosemary, finely
1 crumbled
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon chili paste or
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon turmeric
4 common spicebush berries
4 large potatoes, very thinly
1 sliced

(the super-thin slicing disk of a food processor is perfect here)

Preheat the oven to 250 degrees. Place all the ingredients, except the
potatoes, in a blender or food processor and process until smooth.
Coat the potatoes evenly in the purée. Arrange the potatoes in a
single layer on cookie sheets and bake for 20 minutes. Check the
potatoes often and if any chips look like they're getting overcooked,
turn them with a metal spatula or tongs. Bake the potatoes until they
are lightly browned and crisp on both sides, another 20 minutes.
Check the potatoes often and remove any chips that are done, to avoid
burning them. Eat the potato chips hot or cooled to room temperature.

BUFFALO HUMP CHILI

3 lb ground bison
3 poblano peppers; fresh
2 medium onions
30 oz rotel tomatoes; diced (3 can
4 1/2 tablespoon new mexico chile powder
1 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1 1/2 teaspoon paprika
3 cl garlic
1 fresh lime

Recipe by: Wayne Preston Allen. I found the bison at a health food
store - that's a good bet for you, too. The New Mexico chili powder
might be had from one of a number of mail-order resources if you
don't have a local source. The Rotel tomatoes are hot, so you can
substitute regular tomatoes to cool it a little (but it's gonna be
hot anyway!)

Brown the bison meat. Bison is lean and clumpy, so add a little oil
and break it up as you brown it. Add finely chopped onions and
garlic. When onions are clear, add tomatoes and spices. Add water to
barely cover, and simmer until meat is tender. Add chopped poblanos
for last 20 minutes of simmer, and stir in lime juice before serving.
You're really gonna be surprised!

Lou's notes: This is my brother-in-law Marvin's recipe. It was


published in Southern Living! Marvin's original recipe called for 2
cans of Rotel tomatoes, but that was really, really too hot. Also, I
replaced the parsley originally called for in the recipe with
cilantro and added an extra garlic clove. Lean beef can be
substituted for venison.

1/2 tsp chili powder
15 oz can tomato sauce
2 ea. 14.5 oz can chopped tomatoes

With Roasted Green Chili, Tomatoes and Spiced Tomato Broth


Two and a half gallon soup/stock pot

TECHNIQUE:
There are steps to be taken for this seemingly simple pot of stew. It is
CRUCIAL that you fabricate your pork shoulder and cut the meat off the bone
producing 1/2 inch “steaks”. There is a bone deep inside the meat of the
pork shoulder. This bone must be removed, reserved and put into a small pot
with salt, ground pepper, and 1/4 cup diced onion. Allow this to come to a
boil and then reduce to a slight rolling boil until ALL your prep is
complete.
Use hands and mix the marinate and pork well.

Sweat onions until translucent and tender. At that point add the garlic and
continue to sweat until fragrant. Quickly add Paprika, cumin, chili powder
(1 tsb. ea.) and half of the tomato product. Do not caramelize or brown
the onions/garlic.
Add the charred, diced pork and one 4 oz. Can of diced green chilies allow
Page 61

to slightly cook. Add the Pork shoulder bone broth to cover the meat and
simmer an hour and a half until the meat is almost tender. At this point
add the White Hominy, green chili and remainder of spices. Simmer for 30-40
minutes.

Tomatoes and Spiced Tomato Broth


There are steps to be taken for this seemingly simple pot of stew. It is
CRUCIAL that you fabricate your pork shoulder and cut the meat off the bone
producing 1/2 inch “steaks”. There is a bone deep inside the meat of the
pork shoulder. This bone must be removed, reserved and put into a small pot
with salt, ground pepper, and 1/4 cup diced onion. Allow this to come to a
boil and then reduce to a slight rolling boil until ALL your prep is
complete.

CHICKEN AND CORN STEW WITH CORN WAFERS

for the corn wafers


1/2 stick (1/4 cup) unsalted butter, softened
2 teaspoons sugar
1 large egg white
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons yellow cornmeal
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons freshly grated parmesan
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
2 whole boneless chicken breasts (about 2 p; ounds)
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 small onion, chopped fine
1 small green bell pepper, chopped fine
1 rib of celery, chopped fine
1 1/4 cups chicken broth
4 fresh or canned plum tomatoes, chopped
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 cup fresh corn kernels including the pu; lp scraped from the cobs
about 2 ears of corn)
1/2 cup thinly sliced scallion greens
1/4 cup loosely packed fresh basil leaves,; chopped fine

Make the corn wafers:


In a bowl with an electric mixer cream the butter, add the sugar, and beat
the mixture until it is light and fluffy. Add the egg white and the salt
and
beat the mixture at low speed for 5 seconds, or until it is just combined.
(The mixture will be lumpy.) Add the cornmeal, the flour, and the Parmesan
and stir the mixture until it is just combined. Transfer the mixture to a
small bowl and chill it, covered, for at least 4 hours or overnight.
Arrange
rounded teaspoons of the mixture 3 inches apart on buttered baking sheets
and with a fork dipped in cold water flatten them carefully to form 2-inch
rounds. Bake the wafers in batches in the middle of a preheated 425°F. oven
for 5 to 6 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown, with a spatula
transfer the wafers immediately to racks, and let them cool.

In a 9-inch cast-iron skillet heat the oil over moderately high heat until
it is hot but not smoking and in it brown the chicken, patted dry and
seasoned with salt and pepper, in batches, transferring it as it is browned
to a bowl. To the fat remaining in the skillet add butter and the flour and
cook the roux over moderately low heat, stirring constantly, until it is
the
color of peanut butter. Stir in the onion, the bell pepper, and the celery
and cook the mixture, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are
softened. Add the broth, the tomatoes, the chili powder, and the chicken
with any juices that have accumulated in the bowl, simmer the stew,
covered,
for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through, and stir in
the corn. Transfer the chicken to a work surface and let it cool until it
can be handled. Cut the chicken into bite-size pieces and stir it into the
Page 66

stew. The stew may be prepared up to this point 1 day in advance and kept
covered and chilled. Stir in the scallion greens and the basil, season the
stew with salt and pepper, and serve it in bowls topped with the corn
wafers.

Yield: serves 4 to 6.

CHICKEN IN GREEN SAUCE (POLLO EN MOLE VERDE)

2 - 3 lbs. chicken pieces**


2 cups chicken or vegetable stock
8 poblano chilies
1 cup pumpkin seeds* or pine nuts (pignol; i)
1/2 cup walnuts
1/2 cup almonds
1 large onion, chopped
2-4 cloves garlic, chopped
2 cups coarsely chopped tomatillos
1 bunch cilantro (coriander leaves)
salt and freshly ground pepper to t; aste
2 T. vegetable oil

This green version is just one example of the many 'moles' of Mexican
cuisine. A mole (from the Nahuatl word 'molli' for sauce) doesn't
necessarily include chocolate as some would have us believe, but some sort
of chili pepper is always among the ingredients.

* Also called 'pepitas,' pumpkin seeds are available in many supermarkets


and Hispanic specialty shops.
**Turkey, Quail, Pheasant, etc. could be used.

Combine the chicken pieces and stock in a pot and bring to a boil over high
heat. Reduce the heat and simmer covered for 45 minutes. Drain the chicken
and keep it warm, reserving the stock. Using a fork, hold the poblano
chiles
over a gas flame or electric burner until the skin is blistered and
blackened in places. Place in a paper bag and allow to rest for 20 minutes.
Peel the peppers, slit them lengthwise, and remove the seeds and veins.
Working in small batches, pulverize the pumpkin seeds in an electric
blender
or food processor. Combine the poblano chiles, ground pumpkin seeds,
walnuts, almonds, onion, garlic, tomatillos, coriander, salt, and pepper in
a bowl and mix to combine.

Working in batches, puree the mixture in an electric blender or food


processor, adding enough of the reserved chicken stock to make a thick
paste. Heat the oil in a large skillet over high heat and add the sauce.
Cook, stirring constantly, for 3 to 4 minutes. Thin to the consistency of
heavy cream with the chicken stock if necessary. Reduce the heat to very
low, transfer the chicken to the skillet, and simmer covered until the
chicken is very tender, 15 to 20 minutes.

Yield: serves 4 to 6.

1 T. chili powder
2 t. ground cumin
1 t. ground coriander
1 t. kosher salt

3 cups low-sodium chicken broth
2 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded
2 cups romaine lettuce, chiffonade
1 can (15.5 oz.) yellow hominy, drained, rinsed chil; e sauce
for the avocado salad -
combine:
1 ripe avocado, peeled, pitted, diced
1/4 cup scallions, minced
2 T. chopped fresh cilantro
1/2 t. kosher salt
juice of 1/2 a lime

Chili refers to the stew while chile is a pepper. Most chilies have
chiles as an ingredient. And here's another word to add to your
vocabulary: pozole. Pozole [poh-SOH-leh] is a traditional Mexican stew
(and also the Spanish word for hominy). Pozole includes hominy-dried
corn that''s been soaked in slaked lime until its skin comes off,
causing the kernels to swell. Hominy is excellent in stews, and is sold
in cans at your grocer.
Pozole is typically made with a flavorful chile sauce. Commercial brands
tend to be full of preservatives and salt, so make your own using dried
chiles. But don't get freaked out - the chiles are easy to find and the
sauce is quick to prepare. Make it ahead and chill it until you're ready
to make the pozole. It's also great on enchiladas.
This chili, like most, is better the second day. If you're planning to
make it ahead, put off adding the lettuce until right before serving.
Garnish Chili with:
Avocado Salad
Crumbled feta cheese
Combine tomatoes, onion, chiles, garlic, oil, and seasonings for the
Page 68

sauce. Saute over medium-high heat for 10 minutes.


Add tortillas and broth; simmer 20 minutes. Puree in blender. Saute
onion for the chili in olive oil in large pot over medium heat until
softened, about 5 minutes.
Stir in garlic and seasonings. Cook for 2 minutes. Add broth, shredded
chicken, lettuce, hominy, and chile sauce. Simmer 10 minutes.
Combine all of the ingredients for the salad. Garnish servings of chili
with Avocado Salad and feta cheese.

Yield: about 8 cups

CHICKEN WITH PUMKIN SEED SAUCE

4 lb roasting chicken
4 cup hot chicken stock, or more
1 if needed
3/4 cup pumpkin seeds
8 black peppercorns
1/8 teaspoon cumin seeds
3 tomatillos or green
1 tomatoes
4 hot green chilies (jalapeno
1 or serrano), roasted, peeled
1 seeded
4 green onions, with tops
2 cloves garlic, mashed
2 tablespoon chicken fat or lard
1 bunch young radish leaves or
1 mustard greens
2 large romaine lettuce leaves
4 sprigs fresh coriander
1 (cilantro)

Put whole chicken in a casserole, cover with the stock, and bring to a
simmer. Cover pot and poach chicken just below the simmering point
over very low heat or in a very low oven (275 degrees) for 1 hour.
Remove chicken from stock and let it cool enough to carve it.

Toast the pumpkin seeds together with the peppercorns and cumin in a
hot ungreased skillet about 5 minutes, stirring constantly to prevent
scorching. Put into a blender and grind fine.

Remove outer husks from the tomatillos, put them in a pan with cold
water to cover, and bring to a simmer. Simmer 10 minutes, drain, then
add them to the blender with 1/2 cup of their liquid and blend to a
smooth thick puree. Chop all the remaining ingredients and add them
to the blender. Add chicken stock, if needed, to thin the puree. Pour
sauce into the skillet and simmer about 10 minutes to evaporate some
of the liquid.

Carve chicken in 4 or more pieces and add to the sauce, coating the
pieces well. If possible,let chicken sit overnight in the sauce so
that the seasoning permeates and the hotness of the chili diminishes.
Reheat gently so that sauce does not boil. Serve hot or at room
temperature.

If the Indians of the Americas gave Spain its first turkey, Spain
gave the Indians their first domesticated chicken. The results of
such culinary crossing are birds of both kinds simmered in rich
sauces called mole. The word means a mixture of any kind, and one of
the best mixtures is made of Indian squash or pumpkin seeds to flavor
Spanish chicken. The sauce below would be called a green mole, or
mole verde, because it has everything green about it: green pumpkin
seeds, green chilies, green Mexican tomatillos, and even radish and
romaine greens. The flavor is as gentle and unusual as the color.

CHILI-MUSTARD QUAIL

8 quail
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon butter
1/2 cup hot jalapeno jelly
1/2 cup dijon mustard
2 tablespoon vinegar
1 salt and pepper to taste

Quail run about $2.50 each. This recipe will serve 3 or 4 and takes
about 40 to 45 minutes; 25 to 30 minutes of your attention; 15 to 20
minutes in a 450F oven. 1. Rinse quail and pat dry. 2. In a 10- to
12-inch ovenproof frying pan, combine oil and butter over medium-high
heat. When fat is hot, add quail, without crowding, and turn as
needed to brown the birds evenly, 6 to 7 minutes each. As each quail
is browned, set aside to make room for more. 3. When all the quail
are browned, discard fat, saving any browned drippings. To empty pan
add the jelly, mustard, and vinegar and stir until jelly melts, then
bring to a rolling boil over high heat. 4. Drain any accumulated
juices from quail into pan and stir to max. Remove from heat, add
birds, and coat each well with the jelly mixture. Arrange quail,
breasts up, together in pan. 5. Bake in a 450F oven, basting several
times with jelly mixture, until birds are browned a little more,
about 15 minutes. Breasts may still be pink at breastbone. 6. Season
with salt and pepper and serve with pan juices.

Notes: A red or pale green jelly gives the sauce the most appealing
color. To make ahead, complete through step 4, cover, and chill up to
1 day. Bake, uncovered, for about 20 minutes. (Listed by PatH in

CHIPOTLE YAK CHILI

1/4 cup olive oil


1 large spanish onion, chopped
6 cloves garlic, finely chopped
3 lb yak meat, ground
1 28-ounce can peeled plum tomatoes
2 chipotle chilies in adobo sauce, c; hopped
1 tablespoon kosher or coarse sea salt, or to t; aste
2 teaspoon dried crumbled oregano
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 bay leaf
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, or to; taste
3 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
1 saltines or corn chips (optional)

Time: 2 hours

1. In a heavy 6-quart pot over high heat, warm olive oil and add
onion. Cook over medium heat until onion is pale golden, about 10
minutes. Add garlic, and cook, stirring, 1 minute longer. Add meat,
and sear it, stirring constantly, until it turns brown, 10 to 15
minutes.

2. Add tomatoes, chilies, salt, oregano, cumin, bay leaf and black
pepper. Simmer, partly covered, until tomatoes break down and chili
thickens slightly, about 45 minutes. Stir chili occasionally.

3. Stir in cilantro, and simmer, uncovered, 5 minutes. Taste, and


season with more salt and pepper if necessary. Serve with crackers or
corn chips, if desired.

Yak is as lean as venison or bison (about 5 percent fat, compared to


about 15 percent for beef), and, to some, tastes juicier, sweeter and
more delicate. Certainly the people of Tibet and Nepal think so.
There, yaks have been an integral part of the culture for 5,000
years, used not only as pack animals and for milk but also as a
source of meat.

"It's sweeter than even farmed venison and more tender than buffalo,"
said Joseph Wrede, the chef and owner of Joseph's Table, a restaurant
in Taos, N.M., that is in the process of moving elsewhere in town. He
serves cubed yak meat in a savory stew with aromatic vegetables, and
"yakballs" in a heady red-wine sauce, atop pappardelle pasta or
simmered in a chili. "We sell a lot of it," he said. "The people who
are brave enough to try it really get into yak."

About a dozen restaurants in the United States regularly offer yak.


They include De la Tierra at the Sundy House in Delray Beach, Fla.,
where Johnny Vinczencz coats yak tenderloin in a mustard crust, and
the Cosmopolitan in Telluride, Colo., where Chad Scothorn serves yak
steaks as a special, using the same kinds of sauces he would with
beef.

1 roots
2 cup sliced wild or commercial
1 carrots
3 italian frying peppers
1 1/2 cup cooked chili beans

1 1/2 tablespoon paprika
1/2 tablespoon each marjoram, cayenne
1 pepper, and black pepper
1 teaspoon sea salt, or to taste
1/2 teaspoon cumin

Common evening primrose's turnip-tasting roots tend to overpower other


ingredients, but with this hot chili recipes, the herb has met its
match.

from Steve Brill's book IDENTIFYING AND HARVESTING EDIBLE AND


MEDICINAL PLANTS IN WILD (AND NOT SO WILD) PLACES:

Heat the oil in a large pot. Add the onions, garlic, and broth
powder. Saut‚ for 3 minutes over medium heat, stirring often. Add
the carrots, evening primrose, and frying peppers. Saut‚ for another
10 minutes, adding more oil if necessary. Add the remaining
ingredients, and bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring often.
Reduce the heat and simmer for 30 to 40 minutes. Cook covered for a
thinner chili, or without a lid for a thicker chili. Serve
immediately, or refrigerate overnight so the flavors can blend more,
reheat, and serve.

CORN SOUP 2

1 lg onion
3/4 cup celery sliced
3/4 cup carrots sliced
1 lg can green chilis
2 red bell peppers
2 cans dark red kidney beans
3 cups frozen corn
4-6 cups vegetable or chicken broth
3-4 tsp each cumin & coriander
white or black pepper to taste

You saute the onions (I often throw in an extra half


or small onion or a bunch of green onions sliced, all
the way up to and including the tops) until softened
with the carrots & celery. You can use more of those,
too, if you like.

Add the green chilis and kidney beans until a gentle


simmer & they are warmed, then add your broth. Once
the broth (you can even use water & a bullion cube) is
simmering hot, add the frozen corn. Depending on your
taste, you can simmer until the vegetables are
softened enough for your taste, or leave it on the
stove for hours.

Serve with tortilla chips crumbled on the top.

The original recipe was vegan but it works fine with


chicken broth...I used to have a hard time finding the
vegetable broth in the stores when I lived in Italy,
so I just used chicken broth or bullion. It is a very
pretty dish & heats over well for the next day(s).
Also very forgiving if you don't measure right. And
also you can alter proportions for your own taste.

CRUSTED TENDERLOIN WITH CHIPOTLE ONIONS

1 tablespoon juniper berries


1 tablespoon coriander seed
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1 1/2 teaspoons black peppercorns
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
5 whole allspice
2 whole cloves
1 1/2 tablespoons chopped pecans
4 cloves garlic, chopped
1 beef or buffalo tenderloin (4 to 5 lb.),; fat trimmed, rolled, and
1 canned chipotle chili
1 onion (1/2 lb.) , thinly sliced
1 tablespoon salad oil
2 cups beef broth
salt and pepper

Notes: Oden uses buffalo tenderloin, but it's costly (see box, page 91).
Beef tenderloin is a good option. Both roasts take about the same time to
cook. However, if buffalo is cooked beyond rare, the meat becomes dry

1. In a blender, finely grind juniper berries, coriander, oregano,


peppercorns, kosher salt, allspice, cloves, and pecans. Add the garlic and
whirl to form a paste.

2. Rub seasoning paste all over tenderloin. Set meat on a rack in a 12- by
17-inch roasting pan. Roast in a 425 [degrees] oven for 20 minutes.

3. Meanwhile, rinse canned chipotle chili, discard the seeds and veins, and
mince the chili.

4. Mix onion slices with oil and put in roasting pan around meat (not on
rack). Continue to cook until a thermometer inserted in center of the
thickest part of meat registers 130 [degrees] for rare, 30 to 40 minutes
longer.

5. Transfer roast to a platter and let rest in a warm place 10 to 15


minutes (to allow juices to settle and meat to firm slightly for neater
slicing).

6. Skim and discard any fat from drippings in roasting pan. Add minced
chipotle and broth to onions in pan. Set pan over high heat and scrape
browned bits free, stirring until mixture boils vigorously. Pour into a
bowl.

7. Slice meat and offer chipotle-onion sauce to spoon over portions. Add
salt and pepper to taste.

1 teaspoon whole cumin seed
4 tablespoon chili powder
1 teaspoon onion flakes
1 teaspoon oregano
1/2 teaspoon cumin (powdered)
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

water to cover generously. Stir. Simmer one to two hours, adding

ELK SAUSAGE CHILLI

1 1/2 lb smoked elk sausage


1 1/2 lb ground beef
1 produce:
1 large yellow onion
4 rib celery, with some dark
1 leaves if possible
1 chopped
1 tps (level) minced garlic
6 large fresh tomatoes, chopped
6 large red jalapeno pods, seeds
1 cut out and veined
1 chopped (green works too)
6 ripe hot cherry pods, seeds
1 cut out & veined, chopped
3 ripe aji amarillo pods
1 seeds cut out & veined
1 chopped
4 chipotle pods, chopped or
1 ground
6 tepins crushed or ground
1 seeds & all
1 cans, bottles & spices:
1 small can chopped or sliced black
1 olives (2 hands full)
3 can (10.75 oz.) low-salt cream
1 tomato soup
1 teaspoon (heaping) spicy mustard
1 can dark red kidney beans (if
1 you like chilli with
1 beans)
1 btl colgin's smoke sauce (4
1 oz,
1 don't substitute if you
1 can find it)
4 tablespoon lowrey's season salt or
1 similar type rub
2 teaspoon old hickory smoke salt
1 (spice islands)
1 tablespoon a-1
1/2 teaspoon lemon pepper
1 teaspoon dried parsley
1 garlic powder added to
1 garlic already in mix
2 tablespoon soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon dried dill
1 chile powder to desired
1 heat
1 or paprika if you want the
1 typical red-brown color
1 but have enough heat.

(When cutting fresh peppers, save veins for additional heat if needed)
Page 103

Substitute any ripe, red chiles available as needed for the above.
Variety is essential.

Start in a pot with at least 1.5 gallon capacity.

I generally cook the meat completely, add some extra water to cover
meat and bring to a good boil. Set in a cold place to let the grease
congeal at the top. (I use this time to get all the veggies ready,
get out the spices, etc.) When the grease is thickened, scrape it off
the top.

Pre-heat oven and cookie sheet to 300 degrees. Spread the garlic,
onions, and raw peppers out on a lightly buttered sheet. Leave in oven
10 minutes, then broil until the thinnest edges of veggies just start
to turn brown. Stir and broil as long as you can without much more
browning. Dump veggies into the pot with the meat, start cooking and
add tomatoes, dried chiles and celery.

As veggies and meat are cooking with a slow boil, begin adding
non-salted spices. Stir occasionally. Add water as needed to maintain
a stew consistency. Gradually add all ingredients except soup and
beans, adding salted items a little at a time to keep the mix from
getting too much salt for your taste. Add pepper powder or veins to
increase heat as desired. (However the heat seems when you are
finished, it will be slightly hotter the next day. I have to consider
this when cooking, as my wife and kids are not CHs.) When the raw
tomatoes are nearly cooked, add the soup, and bring back to a boil,
stirring often. Add the beans, juice and all. Simmer 20 minutes,
stirring regularly. If possible, let cool overnight and re-heat
before serving. Re-skim grease if necessary before heating. Serve
with grated cheddar cheese added to serving.

Makes about 1.2 gallons (if beans are added).

Total Calories.. I have no idea.

EMU CHILI

1 lb ground emu
1 medium onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 jalapenos, chopped
12 oz beer (not light beer)
1 can tomato sauce (16 oz.)
1 cup water
1 tablespoon paprika
1 teaspoon salt
2 1/2 tablespoon chili powder
1 tablespoon cumin
1/2 teaspoon oregano

Brown emu in peanut or canola oil. Add along with remaining


ingredients in a large kettle and simmer on low heat for several
hours, stirring often.

This heart-healthy and flavorful chili can be served immediately, but


is best if cooled and reheated to allow the flavors to blend.

Brown and drain meat, add other ingredients and simmer 20 minutes or

it is not as good as the chili you make with dried beans and simmer
all day, but it works for a quick, inexpensive dinner.

FAVORITE HOMINY RECIPE

2 cups cooked hominy (red/white/blue mixed; is fun for this one)


3 ripe avocados, peeled, pitted and diced; large
1 red onion, diced small
1 red bell pepper, diced small
1/3 cup virgin olive oil
1/4 cup red wine vingar
1 tablespoon mince garlic
3 serrano peppers, minced
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon chili powder
1/4 cup finely chopped cilantro
1/2 cup fresh lime juice (2-4 limes, depend; ing on juiciness)
salt and fresh-ground pepper to tas; te

One wonderful idea we’ve been exploring in our kitchen is cooking hominy up
plain and using it in more complicated salsa and chutney recipes that call
for corn. The results have been VERY popular with friends and family.
Mix it all together. Will keep refrigerated for 2-3 days.

FEAST DAY BREAD PUFFS

2 cup flour; all-purpose **


2 tablespoon baking powder

1/4 teaspoon chili powder
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
1/4 teaspoon dried cumin
1 cup cold water or milk
2 teaspoon honey
1 oil for frying

** You may substitute 1/2 cup of tepary bean flour for 1/2 cup of the
all-purpose flour for a slight different taste.

FRANK SARGEANT'S CHILI

4 lb rough-ground venison or elk


1 2 can whole, peeled tomatoes
1 2 large cans of tomato paste
1 6 plum tomatoes; diced
1 2 large onions; diced fine
1 lb mozzarella cheese
1/2 lb fresh mushrooms; sliced thin
1 4 clove garlic; minced
1 5 tbsp cumin
1 2 tbsp oregano

1 Tbsp Or 2 tablespoons of chili -powder (3 or 4 if the temp -is below


freezing or it's raining) 3 Tbsp Vegetable oil Salt and pepper; to
taste

You can leave out some of this, or add other things; some say chili
isn't chili unless it has a handful of jalapenos swimming around in
there, and it's not uncommon to tip a bottle of Jack Daniels over the
pot on occasion at camp, either. I like to brown the meat, onions and
garlic in the vegetable oil first, then add the dry spices and stir
into the meat; that way, the flavor isn't lost in the liquids you add
later. Cumin is one of my favorite spices. You can't add too much for
me, but some people might prefer less. Next, you add everything else
except the cheese, put the heat on low and simmer for at least three
hours, stirring occasionally. Just before serving, add the cheese and
stir steadily until it's melted. You might want to add some fresh
diced onions to the top of the bowl and serve it up with fresh-baked
cornbread. Man, home-cooking never was like this.

Brown the venison (or other wild game) with some butter. Venison
tends to be somewhat dry, so add butter as needed. Drain well. Add
to 6-8 quart slow cooker. (A large pot on the stove will work, but
overnight cooking is preferred). Add other ingredients, mixing well.
Add only enough water to prevent burning. Cook covered for 2 hours
at boil. Reduce heat to ~200 degrees and cook until you can't keep
everyone away. Consistancy should be fairly thick. Cook uncovered if
too thin.

Top with shredded cheese of choice and serve with fresh cornbread.

Freezes well if any left over.

FRYPAN CORN/BEAN FORK BREAD

1/2 cup dry beans (kidney or black)


3/4 cup bean stock
1 large onion chopped
2-6 cloves garlic, minced
1 egg beaten
2 tbs corn oil
1 cup cornmeal
2 tsp baking powder
1 4 tbsp chili powder
3/4 cup grated cheese
1 tomato cut up very fine
a few green onions cut up
1/4 cup black olives sliced

Cook beans covered, with a bay leaf, in 2 1/2 cups water so about 3/4 cup
liquid will remain when they are very tender. If you bring them to a boil,
then turn off the heat and let them cool off an hour, you can then boil
them without soaking all night previousy. Add salt the last 15 minutes
only. Fry onion and garlic in a little corn oil, in a big skillet that can
go in the oven. Leave half of it in the bottom of the skillet. Mix the
cornmeal, other dry ingredients, egg, beans and bean stock with the other
half of fried onions/garlic. Mix thoroughly and pour into the skillet on
top of the fried onion/garlic left in it. Bake at 3500 for about 12
minutes, then sprinkle on cheese, olives, tomato and onion, bake 5 minutes
longer. This is a fork-eating, not a pick-up corn bread. The corn and beans
combine protein complementarity to make one serving about 20% of a day's
protein requirement. However, you better make 2 skillets of this for your
family if this is the main dish.

1 thick strips
1/2 cup soy sauce
1/2 cup worcestershire sauce
2 teaspoon liquid smoke

GRANDMA JENNIE'S GREEN CHILI

take equal parts ( usually 1 lb. of; each, but use whatever m
you like) of
chopped or diced pork (raw or cooke; d- i have even used
a mild country sausage on occasion)
diced raw onion
chopped green chili--i use a mixtur; e of
about 90% anaheim and 10% jalapeno; chilies roasted and skinn
as good as fresh)--we like it hot e; nough to be
noticeably warm, but not hot enough; to blister
your mouth when you take a bite.

The secret here: Lots and LOTS of garlic.

If the pork is raw, brown in a Dutch oven. Add the onions, and saute' until
tender. Add the green chili, and LOTS of minced garlic. For the one pound
recipe, I'd use 5-7 cloves to begin with, and add more if I didn't get a
really rich garlic aroma and taste. Water or chicken broth to cover--the
amount of liquid you add depends on what you intend to use the green chili
for. If you want soup, add enough to cover, plus about 2 inches more. If
you want sauce, for enchiladas, or tostadas, or burritos, or huevos
rancheros, just barely cover the meat mixture. Salt to taste. Simmer,
covered, on low heat until the pork is tender and the flavors are blended.
Stir occasionally.

This is a wonderful meal served over steamed rice, with a little cheese on
top, or just as a soup, with warmed, buttered, flour tortillas as bread.
It's also a great sauce for smothered burritos, enchiladas, tostadas, etc.

GRANDPA GARY'S VENISON CHILI

GREEN CHILI CRAB AND HOMINY CAKES WITH SALSA FRESCA

By: Mary Putman, executive chef and general manager, Pearlz

for the crab cakes:


1 pound jumbo lump crabmeat
1 cup hominy, prefer yellow, rinsed well
1/2 cup mild green chilies, diced
1/2 cup sweet onion, finely diced
1/2 cup celery, finely diced
3/4 cup mayonnaise
3 tablespoons sour cream
1 egg
1 tablespoon lime zest
1 teaspoon fresh lime juice
1/2 teaspoon old bay seasoning
1/2 teaspoon dijon mustard
1/4 to 1/2 cup panko breading
salt and pepper to taste
additional panko for breading
olive oil for sautéing
for the salsa fresca:
4 ripe tomatoes, peeled and seeded
1 avocado, diced
1 fresh jalapeno, minced
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon fresh cilantro, chopped

salt and pepper to taste

In a heavy sauté pan, cook the hominy, green chilies, onion and celery over
medium heat until slightly browned. Place the cooked vegetables in a
mixing bowl.

Add the remaining ingredients to the vegetables and combine gently so as


not to break up the lumps of crabmeat.

Form the mixture into cakes and coat with the Panko. Allow the mixture to
set for half an hour before cooking.

Put approximately a tablespoon of olive oil into a heavy bottomed sauté pan
and heat over medium heat until the pan and oil are hot.

Brown the cakes and place on a baking sheet, only cooking halfway or so.

Reheat in oven at 400 degrees for 12-15 minutes before serving.


Salsa combine all of the ingredients in a bowl.

Allow to marinate for about an hour.

Serve at room temperature over the warmed crab cakes.


Yield: 6 to 8 cakes.

GREEN CHILI STEW (CONTEMPORARY)

1 1/2 lb. lean meat, cut in cubes


2 t. vegetable oil
1 lg. red onion, chopped
4 c. water
4 potatoes, quartered
1/2 to 1 c. green chilies, seeded, cut up
1 c. cilantro
1/2 c. water
4 zucchini, cut in chunks
1 tsp. oregano
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 sm. potato, greated
salt and pepper
sour cream (optional)

Green chili Stew is an old New Mexican staple which can be prepared with
lamb, beef, or pork. The Navajo Indians use lamb, but a combination of beef
and pork is good too. It's a fine dish to prepare a day in advance because
it tastes even better the second day.
In a large saucepan brown the meat in oil. Add onion and continue cooking
until onion is soft. Deglaze pan with 2 cups water. Add remaining water and
simmer covered for 30 minutes. Add the quartered potatoes and continue
cooking until the meat and potatoes are tender. In a blender or food
porcessor puree the chilies, cilantro and 1/2 cup water. Add to the meat
along with zucchini, oregano, garlic, grated potato, salt and pepper. Cook
15 minutes. Serve in large bowls. If desired, top with sour cream.

GRILLED CORN

corn fresh in husks


chili garlic butter
4 tablespoons butter, melted
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 tsp. chili powder

Grilling corn for company is not only fun, but the kids have a blast
shucking and eating it! Soak the corn in cold water in the morning so it
has at least a few hours. It can even soak all day long. Some people
like to add sugar to the water and others add salt. You want your coals
to be burnt down and glowing, but not flaming. Cook in the husks for
about 15 minutes, turning with tongs. Spray with a spray bottle of water
during the cooking to help the steaming process. The husks will blacken,
but that's fine as long as your turning the corn as it cooks. Let them
cool enough to handle and have each person shuck their own then butter.
I know a lot of people give instruction for cooking in foil, but it just
isn't the same. I think the husk adds flavor as it steams and it cooks
so much better. I have never had a guest mind shucking their own
corn--it's worth the extra flavor of grilling it this way! Here is a
great butter recipe that can be brushed on the corn

Combine in a bowl and serve with corn.

GRILLED CORN IN THE STYLE OF OAXACA

By: Southern Living, JUNE 2004

6 ears fresh corn with husks


2 tablespoons reduced-fat mayonnaise
2 tablespoons fat-free sour cream
3 tablespoons finely grated parmesan cheese
1 to 2 tablespoons chili powder
2 limes, cut into wedges
vegetable cooking spray
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon pepper

It may seem unusual to spread sour cream and mayonnaise over corn, but
trust us - it's really good. Sweet corn combined with the creamy mixture,
salty cheese, and spicy chili powder is an irresistible union of flavors.
Prepare a hot fire by piling charcoal on one side of grill, leaving other
side empty. (For gas grills, light only one side of grill.)
Remove heavy outer husks from corn; pull back inner husks. Remove and
discard silks. Tie inner husks together with string.
Stir together mayonnaise and sour cream in a small bowl, and set aside.
Place Parmesan cheese, chili powder, and lime wedges in small serving
bowls, and set aside.
Coat each corn cob lightly with cooking spray. Sprinkle corn evenly with
salt and pepper. Position corn on food grate of grill so that tied husks
lie on unlit side to prevent burning husks.
Grill corn, covered with grill lid, over medium-high heat (350°to 300°) 10
minutes or until golden brown, turning occasionally. Place grilled corn
cobs on a platter.
Spread corn evenly with mayonnaise mixture, and sprinkle evenly with cheese
and chili powder. Squeeze lime wedges over corn.

HATTIE''S VENISON CHILI CON CARNE

2 lb venison
2 tablespoon olive oil
2 large onions
10 cloves garlic
1 quart nonfat beef broth
4 tablespoon chili powder
1 tablespoon ground cumin
2 tablespoon paprika
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 tablespoon oregano
3/4 teaspoon salt

Take 2 lbs. of venison, either meat or venison burger. If using meat,


cube it, and brown in batches in olive oil (about 2 Tbsp) in a large
skillet ( I prefer a ten-inch cast iron skillet - not Caphalon!!). If
using venison burger, just brown it. Drain the meat.

In a three to four quart heavy pot (mine is a Le Creuset that I bought


at the Salvation Army in Santa Cruz, CA), heat one Tbsp of olive oil
and saut, two large onions which have been sliced.

When the onions are limp, but not yellow (don't overcook them, maybe 7
minutes tops) add about 10 cloves of garlic which have been mashed and
minced. When the garlic scents up, add the meat. Add one quart of
homemade chicken or beef stock. If you don''t have your own stock, try
Campbell's low-sodium chicken stock.

Add the spices. Crush the oregano in your hand before adding. Bring to
a boil, reduce to a simmer, cover, and simmer for at least three hours
or until the meat is fork-tender.

Even though venison is very lean, the chili should be defatted. I do


this by letting it cool and then refrigerating the chili overnight.
The next day, I remove the fat.

Notes

The amount of seasoning will make a sprightly but not incendiary


chili. If you're going for the burn, use beef (why waste venison?) and
add three to four fresh chili peppers.

Chili powder can be purchased in bulk at most alternative grocers. The


chili powder is made from only ground up chilies. Don't use commercial
mixes, which include spices and salt which take all the fun out of it.

To serve, reheat. Some like to thicken the chili with masa or fine
corn meal. To do this, mix some about 1/4 cup fine corn meal with
enough water to make a thin paste (no more than one cup of water). Add
this quickly to the chili as it simmers, stir like crazy, or you may
get lumps. If you use the masa, be sure to cook the chili for at least
another 20 minutes or so, or it may taste pasty.

Serve it up in bowls with rice, beans, bread or whatever on the side.


Coleslaw would be the only salad I'd serve with this.

It freezes beautifully.

HOLYOAK'S VENISON SWISS STEAKS

1 cup water
1 cup vinegar
3 tablespoon salt
1/2 onion or apple
1 steaks or patties in small
1 portions
1 flour
1 salt & pepper
1 onion powder
1 garlic powder
1/2 pint homemade chili sauce
1 can tomatoes

I have been cooking with venison since I was a little little girl.
The venison we kill here every year is very mild and not gamey at all
so I don't have to worry about the taste too much, I can use it as
if it were ground beef. But I have found that when we do get gamey
tasting venison, I marinate the meat overnight in a solution of 1 c.
water, 1 c. vinegar, 3 T. salt, 1/2 onion or apple cut in chunks. It
seems to take away that nasty taste and you can use it in almost any
recipe. Here is a good recipe that I like. It works with burger or
steaks.

Combine flour and seasonings. Dredge steaks in flour mixture. Place


in hot skillet and brown on both sides. Turn heat down and cover.
Turn every 10 min till cooked through. Pour chili sauce and tomatoes
over top and simmer 15 min or till tomatoes are tender and break
easily.

HOMINY - OSAGE

2 cups cooked hominy (red/white/blue mixed; is fun for this one)


3 ripe avocados, peeled, pitted and diced; large
1 red onion, diced small
1 red bell pepper, diced small
1/3 cup virgin olive oil
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon mince garlic
3 serrano peppers, minced
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon chili powder
1/4 cup finely chopped cilantro
1/2 cup fresh lime juice (2-4 limes, depend; ing on juiciness)
salt and fresh-ground pepper to tas; te

Cooking hominy is simple, requiring only water (a medium pot about _ full),
2 cups of dried hominy (about _ lb.) and a pound or so of pork, beef, elk
or
buffalo. Pork is probably the most-used meat in Osage cooking. Inexpensive
cuts are fine, as almost all meat will tenderize after being cooked for 2-3
hours. Remember to ‘look’ the hominy before washing, removing foreign
matter
(just like you would dry beans). You can salt and pepper to taste.

You may notice that the Osage Red Corn takes a bit longer to cook than its
white and blue cousins, and will have a little more ‘body’ to it. Lots of
folks jazz things up with hominy, adding cilantro, garlic, onions and other
spices. I don’t think you’d see that on an Osage feast table, but hey, it’s
your kitchen.

One wonderful idea we’ve been exploring in our kitchen is cooking hominy up
plain and using it in more complicated salsa and chutney recipes that call
for corn. The results have been VERY popular with friends and family.
Mix it all together. Will keep refrigerated for 2-3 days.

INDIAN CORN STEW

1 tablespoon vegetable oil,


1 1/2 pounds lean ground beef,
1 1/2 cups sweet green peppers (cored, seeded,; and chopped),
1 large yellow onion (chopped,
1-1/2 cups), 2 cloves garlic (minced),
8 large ears of corn (kernels cut off) or 4; cups frozen corn,
1 can (14 ounces) crushed tomatoes,
4 teaspoons worcestershire sauce,
1/2 teaspoon each black pepper and chili powder,
1/4 teaspoon salt,
1/8 teaspoon ground red pepper (cayenne) or to t; aste,
1 medium-size zucchini or yellow summer squash, t; hinly sliced
crosswise (2 cups)

Pueblo Indians often simmered large pots of meat over an open fire
and added fresh vegetables, like corn and squash, to the pot
Step 1: In a 6-quart Dutch oven, heat the oil over moderately high
heat. Add the beef and cook, stirring frequently, for 8 minutes or
until browned. Lower the heat, stir in the green peppers, onion, and
garlic, and simmer, uncovered, for 5 minutes or until tender,
stirring occasionally.

Step 2: Stir in the corn, tomatoes, Worcestershire, black pepper,


chili powder, salt, and red pepper and bring to a boil. Lower the
heat, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes. Add the squash, then simmer
for 5 minutes longer or until the vegetables are tender.

Before Indian Corn can be used for Corn Soup it must be thoroughly
dried. The corn is picked in the late fall, the husk pulled back,
then braided into three foot long bunches and hung up in the barn so
the crows can't get at it.

Before Indian Corn (which is white :-) can be cooked into corn soup,
it must first be put through a process called 'lying:. Lye is an
extremely strong acid found in hardwood ashes. This is what the
traditional Indians used as it was abundant from their campfires.
This lying process softens the outer shell somewhat and allows the
two black eyes found on each kernel of corn to be washed off after
cooking. There are very few Indians adept at preparing the dried
white corn in this manner. The amount of wood ashes to be boiled with
the corn is a very tricky task to accomplish properly. Too much lye
will destroy the corn and too little will not do the job.

Therefore we leave this to the 'lyers' of the tribe. The corn is


boiled with the hardwood ashes and water for about two hours. Then
it is washed to remove the eyes or hulls and to rinse the corn free
of lye. The Tuscarora reservation has three or four 'lyers' who
perform the difficult and messy task of 'lying'. A 'lyer' will do a
large amount of corn in a day depending on how many orders she has
to do for the tribal members. I get my 'lyed' corn from Mrs. Norton
Rickard of Blacknose Spring Road. Usually I order five quarts
at $3.00 per quart. I then divide it into three parts. I will freeze
Page 128

two of them and cook one part...about a quart and one half.

INDIAN RELISH

By: Sunset, MAY 1998

2 red bell peppers (1 lb. total)


1 onion (1/2 lb.) , finely chopped
1 cup white wine vinegar
1 cup sugar
1 to 2 tablespoons hot chili flakes (opt; ional)
salt

Notes: Recipes for pickling and canning peppered our early pages. In a
modern menu, this colorful relish works perfectly spooned over a mound of
cream cheese or a wedge of ripe brie. Scoop onto crackers to eat. Store the
relish, covered, in the refrigerator up to 1 month; serve at room
temperature.
1. Discard bell pepper stems and seeds; finely chop bell peppers.
2. In a 2- to 2 1/2-quart pan, combine bell peppers, onion, vinegar, sugar,
and chili to taste. Bring to boiling over high heat.
3. Stir often over medium-high heat until liquid looks syrupy and is
reduced to about 3 tablespoons, about 25 minutes. Add salt to taste.
4. Cool and serve.

Yield: about 1 1/2 cup

JANE HIBLER'S VENISON CHILI

1 lb dried pinto beans, soaked


1 overnight
2 lb venison
3 centiliter garlic
1 large onion, chopped
6 oz tomato sauce
1 1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon chili powder

Cook beans until tender.

Grind venison with garlic.

Combine beans, onion, tomato sauce, salt, and chili powder and cook
over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, 2-3 hr.

Recipe doesn't say what to do with the meat, but you can figure it
out. I would substitute the meat for the beans in the third paragraph
and then toss the beans (or fix them separately). I would also
increase the chili powder by a factor of about 10.

JAVELINA AND MULE DEER CHILI

1 javelina
1 mule deer

When I got to Texas, I set out looking for the best bowl of red. I
thought the Texas Chili Parlor in Austin was OK but lacked something.
One weekend spent quail hunting on a ranch led me to the holy grail.
One of the Tejano hands prepared chili with javelina and mule deer.
So pork makes sense. He added coffee and Gephardt's chile powder. The
chocolate replaces the coffee and Gephardt's is made from red NM
chiles. Beer (Lone Star) was added for moisture. So, bigwheel, the
recipe is not so strange as you might think. The major players are
meat and chiles and the other ingredients are meant to boost their
flavors. In my mind's eye, this is what chili is supposed to be.

KANGAROO FILLETS W' SNAP PEAS, ILLAWARRA PLUM/CHILLI

250 gm peas, snap


4 kangaroo fillet steaks
1 oil, olive, virgin
1 peppercorns, ground.
1 1/2 tablespoon oil
1 1/2 tablespoon butter
1 salt
1 tablespoon water
1 illawarra plum/chilli sauce [#]
1 capsicum, red, strips of..., for ga; rnish.

String the snap peas and place them in icy water.

Simply oil and pepper the fillets and, if you have the time,
leave to marinate until ready to cook.

Experts have two schools of thought on the final cooking of


kangaroo fillet, but both initially sear the fillets in oil and
butter on each side in a very hot pan. You can either turn to a
medium heat and cook for about 3 minutes or place your pan in a
very hot oven for 4 to 5 minutes. Both methods result in a
delicious, medium-rare fillet.

Once cooked, rest the fillets and prepare the snap peas. Drain
peas. Heat oil in a non-stick pan. Add snap peas, salt and a
tablespoon od water and stir fry for a couple of minutes until
peas are bright green.

Serve immediately with fillets and Illawarra Plum and Chilli


Sauce. Garnish with red pepper strips if desired.

LAMB CHILI WITH MASA HARINA DUMPLINGS

By: Gourmet Menus February 2006

for chili
10 pcs dried mild new mexico chiles (2 1/2; to 3 oz)
5 cups water
3 1/4 lb boneless lamb shoulder, trimmed and; cut into 1 1/2-inch piec
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 1/4 teaspoons salt
3 tablespoons lard or vegetable oil
1 pc large onion, chopped (2 cups)
4 pcs garlic cloves, minced
2 pcs turkish bay leaves or 1 california
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 1/2 teaspoons dried oregano, crumbled
3 tablespoons finely chopped canned chipotle chil; es in adobo
for dumplings
3/4 cup masa harina (corn tortilla mix)
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup chilled lard or unsalted butter, cu; t into small pieces
3/4 cup well-shaken buttermilk
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro

No one is going to ask 'Where's the beef?' when confronted with this chili.
Slowly cooking the meat with lard, peppers, and spices creates a
wonderfully complex sauce that's topped off with tender corn-flavored
dumplings.
Make chili:
Simmer dried chiles in 2 cups water, covered, in a 2-quart heavy saucepan
until very soft, about 20 minutes. Reserve 3/4 cup cooking liquid, then
drain in a colander. Stem chiles (do not remove seeds), then purée in a
blender with reserved cooking liquid until smooth (use caution when
blending hot liquids). Force purée through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl.
Reserve purée.

Pat lamb dry, then sprinkle with pepper and 1 teaspoon salt. Heat 2
tablespoons lard in a 6-quart wide heavy pot or a 3-inch-deep
straight-sided skillet over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking,
then brown lamb in 4 batches (without crowding), turning occasionally,
about 5 minutes per batch. Transfer to a bowl.

Add remaining tablespoon lard to pot, then cook onion, garlic, bay leaves,
and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt over moderate heat, stirring occasionally,
until softened, 4 to 5 minutes. Add cumin and oregano and cook, stirring
frequently, 1 minute. Stir in reserved chile purée and chipotles and
simmer, stirring frequently and scraping up brown bits from bottom of pot,
5 minutes. Add lamb along with any juices accumulated in bowl and remaining
3 cups water, then bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, covered, until
lamb is tender, about 2 1/2 hours.

Make dumplings:
Page 137

Stir together masa harina, flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a
bowl. Blend in lard pieces with a pastry blender or your fingertips until
mixture resembles coarse meal. Add buttermilk, stirring just until dough is
moistened (do not overmix).

Skim fat off chili and discard bay leaves, then drop 8 or 9 heaping
tablespoons of dough onto simmering chili, about 2 inches apart. Reduce
heat to low and gently simmer, covered, until tops of dumplings are dry to
the touch, 15 to 20 minutes. Sprinkle with cilantro.

Cooks' note:
Chili is best when made at least 1 day ahead, without dumplings and
cilantro, and can be made 2 days ahead and cooled completely, uncovered,
then chilled, covered. Discard fat from surface and reheat stew before
adding dumplings and sprinkling with cilantro.

LBJ PEDERNALES RIVER CHILI

4 lb venison, bite size chili grind fin; e *or*


1 chuck, well trimmed, ground
1 large onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon oregano
1 teaspoon cumin seed
2 cup hot water
6 teaspoon chili powder
1 1/2 cup canned whole tomato
2 dash liquid hot pepper sauce
1 salt to taste

Place meat, onion and garlic in a large heavy skillet or Dutch oven.
Cook until light colored. Add oregano, cumin, water, chili powder,
tomatoes, hot pepper sauce (more or less to taste), and salt. Bring
to a boil, lowering heat, and simmer for one hour. Skim off fat
during cooking. AUTHOR'S NOTE: Even more fat can be removed if chili
is stored in refrigerator, allowing fat to rise to the top and
solidify, when it can be easily removed. LBJ preferred venison in his
chili, and so did his doctor, because it is so lean and fat-free.
Ground beef heart is leaner still, and has a rich beef flavor with
the added value of high Vit B content. This recipe was tailored to
President Johnson after his first heart attack. Not only is it
relatively fat-free, it calls for lean venison, when available.The
local pronunciation of Pedernales is Purd-in-alice, and in this case
local extends at least from Texas to Washington,D.C., to New York
City. FROM: The Great American Chili Cookbook

MEATLESS SPANISH CHORIZO SAUSAGES WITH SPICEBERRIES

5 cloves garlic, peeled


6 common spicebush berries
2 1/2 cup cooked lima beans
1/4 cup olive oil
3 tablespoon hot paprika
3 tablespoon red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon freshly ground coriander
1 seeds
1 tablespoon bragg's liquid aminos,
1 tamari soy sauce, or
1 vege-sal, or
1 1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste
2 teaspoon dried oregano, finely

1 teaspoon cayenne pepper, or to taste
2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 (1 teaspoon peppercorns)
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground cumin seeds
2 cup fresh cornbread bread crumbs
1 or other bread crumbs

Because common spicebush berries taste like allspice, they make a


perfect seasoning for these meatless Spanish sausage patties, also
called chorizos.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Grind the garlic and spicebush
berries together in a food processor or chop them fine by hand. Add
the remaining ingredients, except the bread crumbs, and process until
the beans are mashed, or mash the ingredients together in a large
bowl with a potato masher or fork. Mix in the bread crumbs. Shape the
mixture into patties and bake the patties on an oiled cookie sheet
for 30 minutes, or cook them in an oiled frying pan with a raised
grill until the patties are lightly brown, about 10 minutes on each
side. Serves 6 to 8 From: Wildman Steve Brill <wildmansteve

NATIVE CHILIES

info

FLAGSTAFF, Ariz. - Coming out of middle America, my understanding of chile


was limited to nondescript hot sauces hermetically sealed in tidy, plastic
fast food pouches. When I came of age and moved to northern Arizona, I met
two women who taught me about cooking up good, spicy chow. One, Juanita
Baca, was Mexican; the other, Joyce Tawayesva, was Hopi. Both ladies have
passed on now, but memories of being in their warm, fragrant kitchens on a
harvest day with the smell of roasting chiles in the air have lingered with
me.

Now I grow my own, and as I write, meaty Anaheims are roasting on the racks
of my oven just like they used to at Juanita's and Joyce's. Soon, after
turning the chiles once so both sides get a chance to blister in the
350-degree heat, I'll pull the puffed pods out by their stems. Then, I'll
fold a tea towel around them so their own steam can finish the job of
separating tough skin from tender flesh.

If it were back at Joyce's table in Hopiland, we'd all sit down to eggs,
toast, piki bread (the paper-thin blue corn sensation) and coffee. Then
around the table would come the plate of fresh-roasted chiles that each of
us would peel right there and eat along with our eggs. It was all such a
leisurely affair - breakfast on the mesas.

Then again, there was no rushing at Juanita's adobe dwelling, either. Her
concoctions fried, up in a well-oiled cast iron skillet, were luscious
dishes to be savored as well. Onions and garlic went in first, then
whatever kind of mashed squash she had on hand and lots of diced chiles.
Once we sat down, she'd take the lid off her large, speckled, navy blue
enamel kettle and proudly pass her thick, homemade tortillas around. Bit by
bit, we'd scoop up the chile-flecked squash with pieces of tortilla and
let the spicy goodness put a glow on our cheeks.

Back then, the Anaheims - the long green chiles used for making rellenos -
seemed quite hot, and I took care to remove all the seeds. These days,
though, I've graduated, and my garden contains jalapenos; long, thin
cayenne peppers that turn red right on the plant; some serranos; and even a
test plant this year of the tiny, outrageously hot Thai chiles (which have
been well-received, as long as doled out in moderation).

The pungency - or heat factor - of chiles runs on what's known as the


Scoville range from zero to 500,000. Innocuous sweet bell peppers are zero,
while the Anaheims range a mild 500 to 2,500. Jalapenos run in the medium
ranges at 2,500 to 8,000, along with serranos at 8,000 to 22,000 and
cayennes (the same as Tabascos) at 30,000 to 50,000 that push on up to more
attention-getting pungencies. Thai chiles, as well, spiral right up there
to ultra-serious blasts of 50,000 to 100,000. If you're wondering who the
big kids on the block are, check out Scotch bonnets and habaneros, which
top the Scoville list at anywhere from 100,000 to 500,000.

Myself, I've yet to make the acquaintance of the super-charged crowd.


Instead, I'm happy roasting and dicing my Anaheims like Joyce and Juanita
Page 157

taught me, as well as slicing up the smaller jalepenos, cayennes and such,
skins and all.

Most often I find no more energy come dinnertime than to just treat the
chiles like onions and garlic, and toss them into the pan as part of the
base for whatever is taking center stage that night - beans, corn, squash,
potatoes.

Then again, sometimes I get official and pull out a recipe for rellenos.
Rellenos, of course, take Anaheims. Once roasted and peeled (if you don't
grab some costly canned ones that are already prepared), just split the
chiles down the side, remove the seeds and stem, and fill with sticks of
longhorn cheese cut to fit. A dredging of flour over the chiles, a dip into
egg batter (which ideally, but not necessarily, was made by first whipping
the whites and then folding in the yolks), and then into a pan of oil for
cooking. The trick with rellenos is getting the oil right - hot enough so
that a drop of water skitters away on the surface, but not so hot that the
rellenos cause undue splattering when they hit the grease.

So there you are: Chiles a la Joyce Tawayesva and Juanita Baca. They knew a
good thing when they saw it.

allowed to set so the flavors mingle. Serve this with cold sour
cream, hot sauce, salsas, breads, diced bell peppers, red onion, and
celery, and whole fresh cranberries. This dish is very spicy.

NEW MEXICO CHILI ALA KATHY PITTS

10 roast chiles
3 roasted green bell peppers
5 roasted tomatoes
3 lb lean boneless pork or lamb
1 seasoned flour
1 hot lard
2 chopped onions
2 centiliter garlic
1 flour to make a roux
1 chicken broth
1 cumin
1 mexican oregano

I don't have a real recipe for New Mexico-style chile, although I do


make it occasionally when I manage to drag home more fresh Anaheim or
Poblano chiles than I can dispose of otherwise. (Kroger's sometimes
has BIG bags of them for 99 cents a bag ;-)

What I do is first roast the chiles (either in the broiler or --


better -- over charcoal). The number of chiles I use depends on the
size/heat of the chiles, and can range from 2-3 to 10 or more. If
the chiles are really hot (it happens sometimes, even with Anaheims),
I'll also add 3-4 roasted green bell peppers to give the dish the
required pepper taste without rendering it inedible by anyone without
an asbestos esophagus.

After the chiles have cooled a bit, I peel and seed them, and cut
them into coarse dice. I sometimes (not always) will also roast/peel
5-6 tomatoes to place in the chiles, but tomatoes are optional in
this dish, and I usually don't use 'em.

Next, cut up 3-4 pounds of lean boneless pork (beef is sometimes


used, but isn't as good in this dish, IMHO, and I would imagine lamb
would be very good here indeed).

Coat the meat in seasoned flour, and brown it in hot lard. Remove
from the pan and set aside. Toss a couple of chopped onions into the
pot, along with a clove or two of garlic. When the onions are
golden, I add enough flour to make a roux, and cook until the roux is
light brown.

I then add chicken broth to make a fairly thin gravy, the pork,
chiles, tomatoes (if used), and season the dish with cumin and
Mexican oregano.

Simmer for a couple of hours, until the pork is tender and the
flavors have blended. The end dish should have a pronounced green
chile/pepper flavor and be the consistancy of a thick stew. It's
very good by itself, or as a filling for burritos/soft tacos, and is
wonderful reheated the next morning and served as a side dish with
scrambled eggs for breakfast. Wes, for some bizarre reason, likes it
over rice...
Page 164

Sorry for the inexact recipe/directions. I learned to make this dish


from an ex-neighbor who was or mixed Hispanic/Native American
ancestry, and never QUITE got around to rendering her directions into
a real recipe. (She served the dish with fry bread, and a pot of
white beans on the side -- have no idea whether this was traditional
or simply the way she liked it.)

NEW TEXAS VENISON-BLACK BEAN CHILI

4 tablespoon olive oil


1 lb venison leg, well-trimmed of
1 fat and finely chopped
6 garlic cloves, finely
1 chopped
1 onion, chopped
1 jalapeno, seeded and
1 chopped
4 tablespoon ancho puree
2 chipotles in adobo, chopped
4 medium tomatoes, blanched, peeled,
1 seeded and diced
2 teaspoon ground cumin
1 quart chicken or vegetable stock
1 (or more as needed)
12 oz bottle dark beer
1 cup black beans, soaked
1 overnight and drained
1 teaspoon epazote
2 tablespoon masa harina
1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
1 salt and freshly ground
1 pepper to taste

Here's one from Stephen Pyles' New Tastes from Texas Cookbook
(Clarkson Potter/Publishers, 1998). He does say, "We have a saying
in Texas: If you have beans about Texas, you know Texas chili has no
beans. But this is, after all, _New Tastes from Texas_...." He
serves it with goat cheese crema and a Southern salsa, called "slang
jang." Hope this exotic enough for you.

Heat the oil in a heavy stockpot or casserole until lightly smoking.


Add the venison, garlic, onion, and jalapeno; cook over medium heat
until the meat has browned, about 15 minutes. Add the ancho puree,
chipotles, tomatoes, and cumin; cook for 10 minutes longer.

Add the stock and beer; bring to a boil. Add the black beans and
epazote. Reduce the heat and let simmer for 1 1/2 to 2 hours or until
the meat beans are perfectly tender, stirring occasionally. Add more
stock throughout the cooking process, if necessary, to keep the meat
and beans covered. Whisk in the masa harina and cilantro. Season
with salt and pepper to taste and garnish with Goat Cheese Creme and
Slang Jang.

time to cook," says Olson.

Wash rice thoroughly. Place rice in a heavy saucepan with vegetable


stock and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer, covered 45
minutes or until rice is tender. Rinse rice thoroughly with cold
water. Then place in a large stainless steel bowl.

POJOAQUE CREAM SOUP

4 cups home-cooked pinto beans (or 3 cans)


1 cup bean juice
1 clove garlic
1 tablespoon minced onion
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup diluted evaporated milk
pinch oregano
1 tablespoon red chili powder (not chili con car; ne spice)

There is a world of difference between the home cooked vs canned beans, so


I would encourage you to cook up a pot for this recipe and extra for
general purposes. Also, if you can find it, the New Mexico chile powders
are exceptional. They also grow the most delicious green chiles there, so
if you can't score a bushel of fresh to prepare and freeze for the season,
keep your eyes peeled for canned chiles from Hatch, NM. I find them in one
of our local 99 cent stores.

Pam Oakes <oakes_p@bellsouth.net> wrote:Corn, bread, beans, potatoes,


squash and meat are universal ingredients that most tribes share. But each

the thing I love most about my region is the spicy heat that chiles can
give our food. I LOVE IT HOT HOT HOT AND IT CAN NEVER BE TOO HOT FOR ME!!!
I have a Navajo Tamale recipe that I will try to post a little later--it
can be as spicy as you want to make it. But here is a Pueblo recipe that
has a little spice to it but no real heat...at least not for me.
1. Cook pinto beans according to package directions, or open cans. Mash
beans thoroughly and mix in bean juice, or put both in blender until
smooth.
2. If using blender, blend in all other ingredients gradually while
blending. If not, mix them in slowly while beating.
3. Heat beans to a simmer, stirring frequently so the soup does not stick
to the bottom.
4. Simmer soup for 10 minutes.

Serve hot or cold with a dollop of sour cream.

POSOLE:

5 # marinated pork, grilled and diced,


2 med or large yellow onions small dice
6 fat cloves of garlic
spice section: 2 tsp paprika
1 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp chili powder
tomato product section: 15 oz can t; omato sauce
2 ea. 14.5 oz can chopped tomatoes

Sweat onions until translucent and tender. At that point add the garlic and
continue to sweat until fragrant. Quickly add Paprika, cumin, chili powder
(1 tsb. ea.) and half of the tomato product. Do not caramelize or brown
the onions/garlic.
Add the charred, diced pork and one 4 oz. Can of diced green chilies allow

add the White Hominy, green chili and remainder of spices. Simmer for 30-40
minutes.
Finish with salt, pepper, lime and chopped cilantro. (Serve with tortillas
or Frybread.)
Production Notes:

It is important that you fabricate, marinate and char your pork first.
Remove the shoulder bone brown in the oven or in a sauté pan and cover with
water for you broth. This will save you time and allow the cooking
preparation process to go smoothly. Char, dice and set aside while you chop
garlic onions and measure dry spices.
Gather all items and prepare to cook.

RATTLESNAKE CHILE

1 rattler; 6-foot-long, kinned, bone


1 lb lean pork shoulder
15 oz mild roasted green chilies; canned or fresh roasted
4 cup onion; finely chopped
3 centiliter garlic; minced
1/2 lb bacon
2 tablespoon cornmeal
15 oz chopped tomatoes; undrained
4 tablespoon chili powder
5 jalapeno peppers
1 tablespoon cumin
1 teaspoon oregano
1 tablespoon creamy peanut butter
1/2 oz semi-sweet chocolate
1 can kidney beans; 15oz
1 can pinto beans; 15oz
1 can black beans; 15oz
1/2 cup gold tequila

NOTE: Huntin' your own rattler is not recommended! Check with your
local butcher or specialty food store.

DIRECTIONS:

If you're using fresh chiles, roast, cool, peel, seed and chop to
yield about 1 1/2 cups. Test for spiciness: some chiles are hotter
than others, and you may not need to add this much. Set aside.

Fry the bacon until crisp, and set aside to cool. In a large soup pot,
saute the onions and garlic in about 2 Tbsp of the bacon drippings
until transparent. Add the cornmeal and chopped tomatoes with their
juice, the chopped green chiles, cumin, chili powder, oregano and 1
cup of water. Simmer for half an hour.

Meanwhile, seed and chop the jalapeno peppers, (avoid touching the
seeds and take care not to rub your eyes). Add the chopped pepper and
1/2 cup of water to a blender and puree. Add about half the
water/pepper mix to the pot, saving the rest to be added to taste
later. Continue to simmer the chile base for another 15 minuttes.

Drain the beans and stir them into the pot. Remove about 1 1/2 cups
of the chile and puree in a blender with the peanut butter and
chocolate (these ingredients mellow the acidity of the chiles and
allow the flavors to come through, without imparting any of their own
flavor). Return to the pot.

Using another Tbsp or so of the bacon drippings, saute the diced


rattlesnack (or pork) until done. Chop the cooled bacon and add all
the meat to the chile. Simmer for another 1/2 hour, or until the meat
is tender. Add more water if necessary, and add more of the blended
jalapeno if the chile needs more kick. Salt to taste.
Page 179

The tequila adds wonderful flavor to the chile... stir it in just

RED CHILI CON CARNE

2 blended red chile pods; see * note


3 tablespoon oil or shortening
2 lb stew beef; cut into 1/2 cubes
1 1/2 cup water
4 tablespoon flour; all purpose
16 oz tomato sauce - (2 cans); (optional)

* Note: See the "Blended Red Chile Pods" recipe which is included in
this collection.

Brown the meat well. Stir in the flour, being careful to coat the
meat well. Add 1 1/2 cups water, stirring carefully until the mixture
thickens. Add the doubled Blended Red Chile Pod recipe and the
optional tomato sauce. Cover and simmer for 1 hour or until the meat

Fe, where this kind of chili has been popular for many generations.
The title of the dish simply refers to chili cooked with meat.

SCRAMBLED EGGS WITH CACTUS

By: Better Homes and Gardens

2 to 3 cactus pads (6 to 8 oz. total) o; r one 8 oz. can nopalitos


pieces), rinsed and drained
1/2 cup chopped onion (1 medium)
1/2 cup chopped red or green sweet pepper
1 tablespoon margarine or butter
8 eggs
1/3 cup milk
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
dash ground black pepper
flour tortillas, warmed
salsa

Carefully rinse cactus pads; pat dry. Holding cactus pads with tongs, use a
small, sharp knife to carefully trim off eyes around edges and on both
sides
of pads; discard. Cut cactus pads into thin strips (you should have about 2
cups). In a large skillet cook cactus with onion and sweet pepper in
margarine or butter about 3 minutes or until onion is tender. In a bowl
beat
eggs, milk, chili powder, salt, and black pepper with a fork. Pour egg
mixture over vegetables in skillet. Cook over medium heat, without
stirring,
until mixture begins to set on the bottom and around the edge. Using a
spatula or large spoon, lift and fold the partially cooked eggs so the
uncooked portion flows underneath. Continue cooking over medium heat about
5
minutes more or until eggs are cooked through, but are still glossy and
moist. Remove from heat. If desired, serve with tortillas and salsa.
Tip: Nopales, the fleshy, oval pads of the prickly pear cactus, are showing
up in many supermarkets. Cooked, they’re soft but crunchy, with the
slipperiness of okra and flavor of green beans. The pads have tiny, sharp
thorns that usually are removed at the market. To remove any thorns,
carefully hold the pad and scrape with a paring knife. Use the tip of a
sharp knife or a vegetable peeler to remove the thorn bases and any
blemishes.

NOTE: To lower the cholesterol in this recipe, use an egg substitute or egg
whites.

SOUTHWESTERN BEAN PANCAKES

2 c. cooked or canned kidney or other be; ans, drained


1 3/4 c. cornmeal
salt and freshly ground pepper to t; aste
2 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. ground cumin
1 tsp. chili powder
1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper, or to taste
about 1 1/2. milk or water
1 egg, lightly beaten
vegetable oil
sour cream for garnish (optional)
chopped fresh cilantro (coriander l; eaves) or scallions (spri
garnish (optional)

Beans used to be a larger factor in our diet than these days. While some of
the population have clung to the bean as a staple item on their menu, for
many folks, meats are now their main source of protein. Why should we be
eating more beans? Beans are rich in proteins (not 'complete' proteins) are
naturally fat-free and cholesterol free, are inexpensive, have an
unlimited shelf life (dried), and they just plain taste good.This recipe
reminds me of a souped up version of Cherokee Bean Bread.

Puree the beans in an electric blender or food processor, using a little of


the milk if the beans are too dry. Combine the dry ingredients in a bowl
and stir in the pureed beans, milk, and egg to make a thick batter. Heat a
little vegetable oil in a skillet over moderate heat and drop the batter by
heaping tablespoonfuls. Fry until golden brown on both sides, about 4 to 5
minutes total. Keep warm in a warm oven or serve at room temperature.
Garnish with sour cream and chopped cilantro or scallions if desired. Note:
I have found that if the beans are warm they will blend a whole lot better
than when they are cold.

Yield: serves 4 to 6.

SPICED CORN ON THE COB

2 large, tender corn cobs, cut into 4; pieces


vegetable oil, 3 tbs
1 small onion, finely chopped
fresh root ginger, 1 cm (½ inch) gr; ated
1 clove of garlic, crushed
thick set yogurt, 100 g (4 oz)
salt
for the spice paste:
turmeric, ½ tsp
5- spice, ½ tsp
pinch of chilli powder
garam masala, ½ tsp
ground coriander, 1 tsp
water, 3 tbs

This wonderful recipe is inspired by an idea given to me by an


Indian friend. The slices of corn cob are poached in an aromatic,
spicy sauce with a yogurt base, and are sumptuously delicious. It
makes a complete meal if served with the simple mushroom curry.
Mix the spices together and stir into a paste with the water. Fry
the corn cob pieces in the oil until browned all over, and set
aside. Then fry the onion, ginger and garlic for a few minutes until
softened, and stir in the spice paste. Cook gently for 2-3 minutes
and then stir in the yogurt gradually. Season to taste with salt and
return the corn to the pan. Heat through gently and it is ready to
serve.

SPICY TAINO CHICKEN

4 lb chicken
8 garlic cloves; peeled
1 teaspoon rock salt
1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano
1 teaspoon black peppercorns
4 small hot chili peppers
1 teaspoon minced fresh gingerroot
1/4 teaspoon saffron threads
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin seeds
1/2 cup oil- olive
2 teaspoon paprika
1/3 cup spanish brandy
3 chopped green onions
2 medium tomatoes, chopped
1/3 cup chicken stock
1/2 cup burgundy
1 tablespoon herb- chopped fresh cilantro
1 garnish: lemon wedges

Preparation Wash the chicken parts, pat dry and remove the skin.
Place in a deep square pan and set aside. In the belly of a mortar,
combine garlic, salt, oregano, and black peppercorns. Press down with
the pestle until garlic is crushed and peppercorns are cracked, then
add the chili peppers, minced ginger, and saffron threads. Slowly
pound the mixture until achieving a paste and incorporate the oil
slowly. At the same time, stir with a spoon to break down the paste.

Spread the mixture evenly over the chicken parts, lifting the chicken
pieces to ensure distribution of the marinade to the bottom of the
chicken parts. Sprinkle all parts with paprika. Cover and
refrigerate overnight. If no mortar and pestle is available, execute
the steps in a blender set on low speed until all the ingredients are
coarsely chopped, then remove the canister, add the oil and shake or
stir to break down the paste and blend the ingredients. In a
preheated deep skillet, over low-to-medium heat, arrange marinated
chicken pieces side by side and brown the chicken on all sides.
Spread the chopped onions, chopped tomatoes, and drizzle the burgundy
over the chicken parts.

Cover and finish cooking on low heat for approximately 35 minutes.


Remove from heat and sprinkle chopped cilantro on the chick prior to
serving. You may serve directly from the skillet.

Serving Suggestions: Serve with White Rice and Black Beans, Puerto
Rican style. On the side, an Avocado Salad would be great, as would
any tender root vegetable.

SQUASH OR PUMPKIN BLOSSOM FRITTERS (PUEBLO STYLE)

2 dozen large squash blossoms


(4 dozen of the smaller pumpkin blo; ssoms)
4 eggs
1/2 cup milk
1 tsp chili powder
1 tsp salt
1/4 tsp cumin powder
2 3 cups finely ground cornmeal (masa harina; )
oil for deep frying

If you're a gardener or truck farmer, you can do this; otherwise


you'll not find blossoms. Farmers must thin the blossoms of these
vines, because the vine can support only a couple of pumpkins or a few
squash. But they don't usually bring the flowers to market. Perhaps
you can persuade a local organic grower to give you some, or your
health food co-op to carry them in their short early-summer season.
and a potential big-flower-harvest at season's near-end when the
shortnss of the growing season left means no flowers can finish fruit.

Rinse and pat blossoms dry. In a shallow bowl, beat eggs with milk,
chili, salt, cumin. Dip blossoms in egg mix, then roll gentle in
cornmeal. Refrigerate for at least 10 minutes to set coating. Heat 2 '
of oil in a deep saucepan to hot but not smoking (3750). Fry blossoms
a few at a time until golden, drain on paper towels. Keep warm in 2500
oven until ready to serve.

Only in the southwest are the blossoms of squash and pumpkin important
as a regligious symbol, as well as food. They appear as sacred symbols
in many Pueblo ceremonies, and gave rise to a popular design worked in
silver. There is a Hopi Squash Kachina (Patung). He is Chief Kachina
(wuya) for the Hopi Pumpkin Clan. He runs with men of a village in
spring ceremonial dances to attract rain clouds. The Hopis and Pueblo
farmers gather large quantities of squash and pumpkin flowers at the
end of the growing season, when these flowers cannot make fruit;
that's the time white farmers harvest their curcurbitae and pull up or
plow under the still-flowering vines.

STEVE'S HOT! JERKY

5 lb beef brisket or venison


1 large fresh white onion or 1/3 cup
1 onion powder
1 large fresh garlic or 2 tbl.
1 garlic powder
4 oz liquid smoke
1 cup soy sauce kikkoman¨
3/4 cup worcestershire sauce
1 heinz¨
2 tablespoon steak sauce a.1.¨
1 tablespoon monosodium glutamate
1 acent¨
2 teaspoon seasoned salt
1/3 cup black pepper -- ground
1 tablespoon fresh rosemary leaves
2 tablespoon sugar
5 whole fresh habanero chiles
1 (more to taste) -- with
1 seeds
1 tablespoon dried pequin chili pepper --
1 with seeds
1/2 bottle
4 tablespoon dried cayenne pepper --
1 ground
1 the hot stuff ---
1 hot sauce melinda's
1 xxxtra¨ (5 fl. oz.)

Prepare meat by cutting into strips 3/4" X 1/2" and as long as you
prefer. Cut across grain for tender and lengthwise for chewy. The
more consistent you are when cutting the strips the better your jerky
will dry evenly. Mix all ingredients in blender except meat and
Cayenne. Soak strips of meat in the above mixture and refrigerate for
24-48 hours in a close container (I use a Tuppleware¨ bread box).
Shake several times to mix well. Pat dry. Place directly on oven
racks that have been covered with tin foil and sprayed with Pam. Cook
in pre heated oven @ 160F for 2-3 hours (with door closed). This
kills bacteria, removes a lot of the excess moisture and melts any
excess fat. Return hot strips to mixture and refrigerate for another
6-12 hours (remember to shake several times). Pat dry and sprinkle
with Cayenne powder. Spread in dehydrator. Set dehydrator at 145F.
The final drying usually takes about another 6-10 hours. Do not over
dry (Check every few hours). Jerky should be tuff and leathery, not
brittle or hard. A real mouth watering HOT treat! Enjoy. If you don't
have a dehydrator return Jerky to 150F oven for 6-12 hours leaving
door open a little. An alternate for the final drying would be to use
a low heat smoker. Leave out the Liquid Smoke¨ in the Marinate. Note
~ Venison has always cooked faster for me than beef (less moisture?).
So check it more frequently. Yields about 1.75 - 2 lbs. dried jerky.

3 tablespoon mild olive oil
1/2 lb hot italian sausages,
1 casings removed
2 cup chopped onions
2 tablespoon minced garlic
2 teaspoon dried oregano, crumbled
2 teaspoon ground cumin
1 1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 teaspoon sugar
1 can (1 pound) italian plum

oil in a bowl.

Cover and refrigerate overnight.

Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in a Dutch oven or soup pot
over medium-high heat.

Working in batches, brown the venison on all sides, about 5 minutes


per batch.

With a slotted spoon, transfer the meat to a bowl.

Crumble the sausage into the pan. Cook, breaking up the lumps with a
fork, until the meat is no longer pink, about 3 minutes.

Stir in the onions and garlic, and cook for 5 minutes.

Reduce the heat to medium.


Page 211

Stir in the oregano, cumin, salt, black pepper, and sugar and cook
until aromatic, 2 minutes.

Stir in the venison, tomatoes, red wine, beef broth, and tomato paste.

Bring the mixture to a boil.

Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer until the meat is very
tender, stirring occasionally, about 1-1/2 hours.

Meanwhile, bring the beans to a boil over high heat.

Reduce the heat to low and simmer until the beans are tender but not
mushy, about 1 hour, adding more water if necessary to keep the beans
covered.

Drain well.

Degrease the chili, then stir in the beans and vinegar.

Simmer 5 minutes. Adjust the seasoning, if necessary.

This chili should be thick, but can be thinned with broth, if


necessary.

Ladle the chili into large bowls. Top with sour cream, papayas, and
scallions.

Serve at once.

TEPARY BEAN, NOPALITOS, AND CORN SALSA

1 cup cooked tepary or black)beans


1 small jar (6 oz.) nopalitos
1 can (10 oz.) corn, drained
5 medium, ripe tomatoes, diced
1 small red onion, diced
2-3 cloves garlic, minced
2-6 fresh chilepequíns or chiletepíns, finely; minced (or to taste)

pinch of salt (optional)

Try this salsa over green corn tamales, cheese enchiladas, or with
calabacitas (zucchini or summer squash cooked with chiles, onion, garlic,
tomatoes, and lime juice).

Of course, it's also wonderful with chips. In a large bowl, mix all
ingredients together well and refrigerate for an hour or so (to let the
flavors marry) or serve immediately with hot corn tortillas or chips.

Variations:

Substitute pinto, or Anasazi beans for the black beans.

Substitute diced raw or lightly steamed zucchini or other summer squash for
the nopalitos.

Diced fresh or rehydrated dried mangoes (cut up dried mangoes with a pair
of scissors and soak in water for about 15 minutes) make a very tasty
addition to this salsa.

Substitute other varieties of chiles according to availability and taste:


pasillas, chipotles, serranos, or even the incendiary habanero.

crunchies. Pour off all but 1/4 c of the fat. Cook the meat in this
fat until the meat changes color. Add 2 1/2 c of the soaking water and
bring this all to a boil. Add the bay leaves and reduce the heat to
low. Simmer the stew 1 hr with the lid ajar, stirring it occasionally.

Toast the cumin seeds 10 min over low heat. Blend them in a blender
until they are a fine powder. Add the soaked chiles, the rest of the
soaking water, and the garlic, oregano, paprika, sugar, and salt.
Blend this until the mess is smooth.

Stir the puree into the stew and cook it 30 more min with the lid
ajar, stirring it occasionally. Then, stirring constantly, add the
cornmeal in a thin stream and bring the chili to a boil. Cook,
stirring all the time, until it seems done. Add the cayenne if you
wish.

portion at a time, and cook until well browned on all sides. Add
onion and garlic and stir often until onion is limp, about 5 minutes.
Stir in tomatoes, tomato sauce, chopped jalapenos, beer, oregano,
pepper, cumin, paprika, and ground pasilla chili; stir well. Bring
to a boil, cover, reduce heat, and simmer until meat is very tender
when pierced, about 2-1/2 hours; stir occasionally. If chili is
thinner than you like, uncover and simmer until some of the liquid
evaporates. If it's thicker, stir in water and bring to boiling. Add
salt to taste.

1 whole chicken
3 cloves crushed garlic
1 lg. yellow onion-chopped
1 T. chopped fresh rosemary
2 or 3 pablano peppers-roasted, pealed, and seeded
4 C. cooked white navy beans
2 lbs tomatillos (husk tomatoes) dehusked and diced

STUFFING AND COOKING THE MEAT MIX.

There are several methods tht you can use to stuff and cook your meat
mix. To stuff your meat mix, you can either purchase casings from you
meat market or you can use cans to shape your sausage. If you use
commercial casings you need to make them pliable by soaking in a
solution of 1 pint warm water, 1 tablespoon vinegar, and 1 teapoon
salt for three hours. Rinse casings thoroughly before stuffing. After
Page 226

stuffing, cook sausage with one of the methods described below. When
using cans, be sure the meat is thoroughly packed in the cans to
avoid air pockets. A no. 2 1/2 can is a convenient size. Cover the
stuffed cans with foil before cooking. Cooked sausage can be stored
safely in the refrigerator for 2 to 3 weeks, or it can be frozen.
Frozen sausage should be used within 2 to 3 months for best quality.

COOKING METHODS:

PRESSURE SAUCEPAN METHOD OF COOKING: Place cans of sausage or casings


filled with sausage on rack in pressure saucepan. Put 1 cup water in
the bottom of the pan and place cover on cooker. Follow operating
directions that came with your pressure saucepan and cook 15 minutes
at 15 pounds of pressure, or at "cook" position. When cooking time is
completed, set pressure cooker off heat and leave sealed until
pressure has returned to the zero position.

Place a large pan in the sink and fill with 3 to 4 inches of ice
water, remove sausage from cooker and place in water to cool. If
necessary add more cold water, being careful not to let water run
into the cans. When cool remove sausage from cans, and refrigerate or
wrap sausage for freezing.

OVEN METHOD OF COOKING:

Place filled cans or stuffed casing on rack in baking pan and bake at
325 F for 1 hour and 15 minutes. Cool, package, and store as directed
under pressure saucepan method.

SMOKING METHOD: USE ONLY WITH STUFFED SAUSAGE CASINGS

Hang stuffed sausage casings in smoke house. Hot smoke at 160 degrees
to 180 degrees F for about 8 hours. Test for doneness by inserting a
thermometer into the center of the sausage. The internal temperature,
when done, should be at least 165 degrees F. When cool, regfrigerate
or wrap sausage as indicated for other cooking methods.

[CH] ELK SAUSAGE CHILE CHILI

1 1/2 lb smoked elk sausage


1 1/2 lb ground beef
1 produce:
1 large yellow onion
4 stalks of celery, with some
1 dark leaves if possible,
1 chopped
1 level teaspoon minced garlic
1 (or more)
5 large fresh tomatoes, chopped
6 large red jal. pods, seeds cut out
1 and veined, chopped
6 ripe hot cherry pods, seeds
1 cut out and veined, chopped
3 ripe aji amarillo pods,
1 seeds cut out and veined,
1 chopped
4 chipotle pods, chopped or
1 ground
6 tepins crushed or ground,
1 seeds & all
1 cans, bottles & spices
1 small can chopped or sliced black
1 olives
3 regular cans low-salt cream
1 tomato soup
1 heaping tsp spicy mustard
1 can dark red kidney beans (if
1 you like chili with beans)
4 oz bottle colgin's smoke sauce
4 tablespoon lowrey's season salt
2 teaspoon old hickory smoke salt
1 (spice islands)
1 tablespoon a-1
1/2 teaspoon lemon pepper
1 teaspoon dried parsley
1 garlic powder to taste
2 tablespoon soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon dried dill
1 chile powder

Start in a pot with at least 1.5 gallon capacity. I generally cook the
meat completely, add some extra water to cover meat and bring to a
good boil. Set in a cold place to let the grease congeal at the top.
(I use this time to get all the veggies ready, get out the spices,
etc.) When the grease is thickened, scrape it off the top.

Pre-heat oven and cookie sheet to 300 degrees. Spread the garlic,
onions, and raw peppers out on a lightly buttered sheet. Leave in oven
10 minutes, then broil until the thinnest edges of veggies just start
to turn brown. Stir and broil as long as you can without much more
browning. Dump veggies into the pot with the meat, start cooking and
Page 247

add tomatoes, dried chiles and celery.

As veggies and meat are cooking with a slow boil, begin adding
non-salted spices. Stir occasionally. Add water as needed to
maintain a stew consistency. Gradually add all ingredients except
soup and beans, adding salted items a little at a time to keep the
mix from getting too much salt for your taste. Add pepper powder or
veins to increase heat as desired. (However the heat seems when you
are finished, it will be slightly hotter the next day. I have to
consider this when cooking, as my wife and kids are not CHs.) When
the raw tomatoes are nearly cooked, add the soup, and bring back to a
boil, stirring often. Add the beans, juice and all. Simmer 20
minutes, stirring regularly. If possible, let cool overnight and
re-heat before serving. Re-skim grease if necessary before heating.
Serve with grated cheddar cheese added to serving.

Makes about 1.2 gallons (if beans are added).

Total Caories... I have no idea.


Total Salt...... Don't ask.
Total Fat....... Not much if you skim the grease, and even less if you
use low fat cheese.
