APPLE RAISIN DRESSING

Steps:

RED CABBAGE SALAD W/ APPLE, RAISIN& HONEY DRESSING

Steps:

• 1. In a dutch oven, place cabbage, apple juice, and salt. Simmer mixture for 15 minutes.
• 2. Add the raisins and apples and continue simmering until cabbage and apples are tender and most of the liquid is absorbed.
• 3. Stir together the vinegar, honey and oil until blended. Pour dressing over the cabbage and simmer mixture for 2 minutes or until heated through. Refrigerate until serving time. Serve warm or cold.

RICE, APPLE AND RAISIN DRESSING

Steps:

• Combine the seasoning mix ingredients in a small bowl and set aside.
• In a 2-quart saucepan, heat the oil over high heat until very hot, about 2 minutes.
• Add the onions and bell peppers; saute about 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Add the pecans and continue cooking for about 3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Add the raisins and butter (these are added together so the raisins will absorb as much butter as possible).
• Stir until butter is melted, then cook until raisins are plump, about 4 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Add the rice and seasoning mix and cook until rice starts looking frizzly (a bit like ce Krispies) Chef Prudhomme recommended using converted rice.
• This will require about 2 to 3 minutes, stirring almost constantly before the rice looks "frizzly".
• Stir in the stock, scraping pan bottom well, then stir in the apples.
• Cover pan and bring to boil; lower heat and simmer covered for 5 minutes.
• Remove from heat and let sit, *COVERED*, until rice is tender and stock is absorbed, about 30 minutes. (We cook the rice this slow way to let the flavors build to their maximum.) Serve immediately, allowing about 3/4 cup per person.

APPLE-RAISIN COLE SLAW WITH SOUR CREAM DRESSING

Steps:

• Combine the mayonnaise, sour cream, brown sugar, and vinegar. Whip with a fork and set aside while you prepare the salad.
• Shred or finely slice the cabbage.
• I used 1 sweet-tart Jonagold and 1 sour Granny Smith apple, but you can use any variety you like. Core and chop (I did not peel them).
• Peel and coarsely grate the carrots.
• I used half golden and half black raisins. I think dried cranberries would be even better. You can use more than 1 cup if you like.
• Toss cabbage and fruits in a large bowl. Dress and toss again to coat everything in mayonnaise-sour cream mixture. Allow to marinate in the refrigerator for a few hours.
• Garnish with nuts just before serving. (The nuts will get soggy if you add them at the same time as everything else.)

ROASTED DUCK WITH APPLE-RAISIN DRESSING

Steps:

• Sprinkle the inside of ducklings with salt prick skin well all over and set aside. In a large skillet, cook sausage with onion and celery until sausage is no longer pink and vegetables are tender. Add apple and simmer for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally drain. Meanwhile, simmer raisins in water for 8 minutes do not drain. In a large bowl, combine sausage mixture, raisins, salt, sage, pepper and parsley mix well. Add the bread cubes, eggs and broth mix lightly. Divide and spoon into ducklings. Place with breast side up on a rack in a large shallow roasting pan. Bake, uncovered, at 375° for 1-3/4 to 2-1/4 hours or until the thermometer reads 185°. Drain fat from pan as it accumulates. Remove all dressing.© Copyright Reiman Publications, 1993-1997
