Cheese-Stuffed Manicotti
Recipe By :
Categories :
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
-----cheese filling-----
1/2 pound fresh mozzarella cheese
1/2 inch dice
2 pound ricotta cheese (or 2
1 15 ounce con )
1/4 pound prosciutto -- 1/4-inch dice
2 eggs
1/2 cup freshly graterd parmesan
cheese
salt and freshly ground
black pepper
1/4 cup minced fresh parsley
14 manicotti shells
3 cup tomato sauce (meat or
marinara)
1/2 cup freshly grated parmesan
cheese
to make the filling: combine
al
li g
ingredients and mix very thoroughly. Heat 4 to 6 quarts of salted water to

the boil in a large pot; add 2 tablespoons oil to help prevent pasta from
sticking. Add half of the manicotti and cook for 6 to 8 minutes, or until
not quite al dente. Stir occasionally with a long-handled fork. Hold a
strainer over the pot and use a slotted spoon to remove 1 or 2 manicotti
at a time from the boiling water, placing them in the strainer. Shake
manicotti free of water over the pot. Spread a clean kitchen towel on the
kitchen counter. Place the manicotti side by side on the towel, which will
absorb all the remaining moisture. (The shells must be completely dry
before stuffing.) Repeat until all shells are cooked. Cool. Generously
butter a baking dish, 13 x 10 inches. Fill each shell with some of the
stuffing, letting a little of the stuffing come out on either end. This
is best done with a pastry tube and a large nozzle; otherwisew use a
regular teaspoon. Lay the stuffed manicotti side by side in the buttered
dish and surround them with any manicotti shells you may not have
sufficient stuffing for. Pour half the tomato sauce over the shells and
sprinkle with 1/2 cup Parmesan ch eese. Bake in a preheated moderate oven
for 15 to 20 minutes. Heat remaining tomato sauce to serve separately.
Serve with additional Parmesan Cheese.

Delicate Homemade Pasta
Recipe By :
Categories :
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 cup flour -- whole wheat pastry
1 cup flour -- unbleached
1 teaspoon salt
2 eggs -- large
2 teaspoon olive oil
2 tablespoon water -- more as necessary
Sift together the flours and salt and pour out on a clean, dry board.
Shape into a mound, then make a well in the center with the "walls" of the
flour even all around. Crack the eggs into the well and add the oil.
Using a fork, mix the flour together with the egg mixture, keeping the
"well" intact by cupping one hand around the wall of flour while you brush
flour from the top of the wall into the well, incor-porating it into the
egg mixture. The mixture of eggs and flour will get very sticky; keep
incorporating flour with the fork while you con-tinue to confine the flour
with your other hand so it doesn't scatter itself all over the working
surface. (You won't be able to get all the flour incorporated, and some
flakes of the mixture won't be absorbed, but don't be concerned with this
small amount---you'll have plenty of pasta.) When you have incorporated
all the flour you can into the egg mixture, sprinkle with the water. This
may make the mixture sticky. Sprinkle with a little more flour---just a
little---so you can handle the dough, and mix the dough vigorously with
your hands. When the dough is smooth and elastic, knead it for 5 minutes.
Shape the dough into a ball, wrap it in a damp towel, and let rest for 0
minutes to an hour.
Divide the dough into eight. Roll out as thin as possible---start at the
thickest setting your machine allows, and run each piece through many
times, each time setting the machine one notch thinner. The dough will
shrink back a little, so roll it thinner than you PRODIGY(R) interactive
personal service 09/20/93 7:10 PM want it. Run through
the cutters, or cut with a knife into the desired shapes, and place on
waxed paper until ready to cook. If storing, allow to dry and wrap in
plastic. Keep in a cool, dry place.

Mix all the ingredients together in a saucepan until melted and smooth.
Taste, adjust seasonings pour over hot angel hair or linguine that has
been tossed with steamed-----> vegetables (sliced carrots, broccoli,
cauliflower, zucchini, yellow squash (seeds removed), snap peas, snow
peas, red bell pepper--you name the vegetable--you can put it in there)

1 tablespoon cheese -- grated romano chees
I probably post this recipe at least once a month....maybe even more...but

I think it is wonderful. It was originally posted by Ann Miller. Cook
onion and garlic in 2 t. oil. Add UNDRAINED tomatoes, wine, sugar and
seasonings. Cover, simmer 25 min. Add shrimp, return to simmer and cook
about 5 min. To tender. Blend cornstarch in 1 T. cold water, stir into
shrimp mixture. Cook to bubbly. Serve over the hot spaghetti and
sprinkle with cheese. This is also excellent made with scallops and/or
chicken.

1 md onion -- diced
1 green pepper -- diced
1 sm clove garlic crushed
2 tablespoon bacon fat fom above
-----pasta-----
2 cup flour
1 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
2 tablespoon water
Saute the onion and pepper. Cook pasta and drain. Add pepper, onion and
bacon Add 2 eggs and stir over med heat until egg starts to cook. You
don't want the eggs to become scrambled. It should be on the creamy side.
Add pepper and parmesan to taste. PASTA: Mix the flour, salt and olive
oil, then beat in the eggs, (a food processor, or a mixmaster does this
very easily). When well combined, add all of the water. Work until this
becomes a dough ball, and then knead for two minutes, stretching out the
dough, and folding it. Put in a plastic bag, and store in the fridge for
at least a half an hour. Divide the dough into four pieces, and run
through the machine, adding flour (this is a good place to work in some
semolina) so that the dough is not sticky. After kneading on the widest
setting for about 10/15 passes, reduce the size of the roller one step at
a time until you reach the thinnest size. Put through the cutter of your
choice, and dry on a rack or a line. Use fresh, or freeze unused portions.
Easy, and quick and impresses the hell out of your guests! I sometimes
add thyme, or oregano to my dough when mixing (about 2 t) and this adds
nicely to the taste of the dough.

1/2 teaspoon oregano leaves
1 cup red wine -- dry
1/2 teaspoon basil leaves
1 teaspoon celery salt
3 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup ripe olives -- sliced
1/2 teaspoon parsley -- finely chopped
1 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 cup flour
1/2 cup stuffed olives -- sliced
1/2 teaspoon rosemary leaves -- crushed
2 teaspoon sugar
1/4 cup olive oil
2 4 oz can mushrooms
2 cup hot water

4 pound spaghetti
4 garlic -- squashed
1 tablespoon season-all
4 tomatoe paste -- 6 oz cans
parmesan cheese -- grated
1 onion -- finely chopped
1/4 teaspoon msg
1 quart water
Long, slow simmering of meat and herbs produces the base for this
incomparable sauce. Season roast with salt; dredge with flour. In Dutch
oven brown slowly on all sides in hot olive oil. Add hot water; cover and
cook slowly 3 hours or until meat almost falls apart. Tear into small
pieces with fork. Add remaining ingredients except spaghetti and cheese.
Cover tightly and simmer 2 hours longer, stirring occasionally. Remove
cover and continue cooking until sauce thickens to desired consistency.
Cook spaghetti following directions on package, allowing 1 pound for 4
servings. Ladle sauce over spaghetti. Top with cheese. Makes about 3 1/2
quarts sauce, enough for 4 pounds spaghetti. NOTE: Since you may not need
such a large quantity of spaghetti, freeze extra sauce in half-pint, pint
or quart freezer jars and use as needed. I prefer to use rump roast, but
chuck or round is acceptable.

do so. If you prefer a thicker sauce, add a Tbl or two of tomato paste. I
personally just don't think it needs it. Rita in Scottsdale 03/24/92 21:05
