Grandma Maybee's Koo Koo Bread image

When we lived up in Port Angeles, WA it seemed like everybody was related and in one big extended family, they could hardly wait for Christmas and Koo Koo Bread each year.

Time 3h

Number Of Ingredients 18

2 pkg rapid-rise yeast
1 Tbsp sugar
1/2 c warm water
2 c buttermilk
1 c instant mashed potatoes flakes
2 tsp salt
4 Tbsp vegetable oil
1 c white sugar
3 large eggs, well beaten
2 Tbsp baking powder
6-8 c all-purpose flour
POUR OVER THE BREAD BEFORE BAKING
2 pt heavy whipping cream
2 c sugar
1 c cinnamon sugar
CINNAMON SUGAR
1 c sugar
1-2 Tbsp cinnamon

Steps:

  • 1. Dissolve two yeast packets in 1/2 cup of warm water and 1 tablespoon of sugar. Mix well and set aside for 10 minutes or so.
  • 2. Heat together on the stove, buttermilk, potato buds, salt, oil, and sugar until well blended and just barely boiling. Cool mixture down until you can comfortably stick a pinky in and hold it there.
  • 3. Add buttermilk mixture to 3 beaten eggs. Add the yeast and 2 tablespoons of baking powder. Mix well.
  • 4. Begin adding flour, a little at a time, until you reach kneading consistency.
  • 5. If you don't have a mixer that kneads, then you knead for around 10 min. for the right bread dough texture. The more kneading, the better, words from my Grandma (per Jacki). The dough will eventually be slightly sticky but not so sticky you can't work with it.
  • 6. After kneading, divide into 2 and roll each half to fit in a 9x13 baking dish.
  • 7. Place each half into the 2 greased cake pans, 9 by 13. Cover and put in a warm place. Let rise for about 2 hours or until it is doubled in size.
  • 8. Once dough is done rising, take your index finger and poke holes throughout, covering the top completely with the holes.
  • 9. Mix 1 pint (2 cups) of whipping cream and 1 cup sugar PER PAN.
  • 10. Pour the cream mixture over the holes, covering the top completely with the cream. Do this for both pans.
  • 11. Mix 1 cup of sugar with 1-2 tablespoons of cinnamon. Sprinkle 1/2 cup of the cinnamon sugar mixture over each pan.
  • 12. Bake for 30 minutes at 350 degrees.
  • 13. Allow to cool slightly before slicing.

This is a delicious, quick, and easy throw-together Iranian dish that I absolutely love. My grandma would always whip this up for me when I wanted a snack from school, and there would always be something to look forward to later in the evening.

Time 20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 bunch cilantro, coarsely chopped
2 bunches Italian parsley, coarsely chopped
2 tablespoons dill
10 ounces frozen spinach, chopped
3/4 cup onion, chopped
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
1/4 teaspoon turmeric
1/2 cup dried cranberries (or barberries, if you can access them!)
1/2 cup walnuts, toasted
3 eggs (you may use 4 if your herb bunches are bountiful)
cooking spray

Steps:

  • Cook spinach and drain well.
  • In a large bowl, combine spinach, cilantro, parsley, dill, and onion.
  • In a small bowl, crack three eggs and whisk with a fork. Pour eggs into large bowls with herbs. Mix to combine.
  • You do not want an eggy consistency. The egg is used to combine the herbs together. The herbs should look very glossy from the egg, not swimming in it! From here gauge if you need to crack another egg and add it to your mix.
  • Season with salt, pepper, and turmeric,.
  • Fold in cranberries and walnuts.
  • Heat a large pan over medium-heat and spray with cooking spray.
  • Pour egg mixture into pan and let cook on one side, about three minutes.
  • As the bottom is cooking, use your spatula to divide "omelet" into six or eight "pie slices".
  • Flip each slice so the other side cooks, another three minutes.
  • Lower heat to medium as needed so it doesn't burn.

Time 1h5m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 19

⅓ cup fresh barberries
1 bunch Swiss chard, stems removed
1 bunch fresh parsley, tough stems trimmed
1 bunch fresh cilantro, tough stems trimmed
1 bunch fresh dill, tough stems trimmed
1 bunch green onions, finely chopped
½ cup walnuts, roughly chopped
1 clove garlic, chopped
1 ½ teaspoons kosher salt (such as Diamond Crystal®)
1 teaspoon dried fenugreek leaves
1 teaspoon dried tarragon
½ teaspoon ground turmeric
¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon ground saffron
¼ teaspoon ground Damask rose petals
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
6 large eggs, or more as needed
⅓ cup olive oil
2 tablespoons olive oil

Steps:

  • Soak barberries in water to cover for 10 minutes. Drain.
  • Pulse Swiss chard, parsley, cilantro, and dill together in a food processor, working in batches, until finely chopped but not mushy. Place into a large bowl with barberries, walnuts, garlic, salt, fenugreek, tarragon, turmeric, cinnamon, saffron, rose petals, and black pepper. Stir to combine. Add 6 eggs and mix well to combine; the batter should have the consistency of thick yogurt or soft serve ice cream. If it doesn't, add more eggs, 1 at a time, and mix to combine.
  • Heat 1/3 cup olive oil in a large (10- or 12-inch) nonstick frying pan over medium heat. Add batter and spread evenly. Cover with a lid and cook kookoo until oil starts to bubble along the sides, about 3 minutes. Cover and cook until it starts to set and the bottom is browned, 12 to 15 minutes.
  • Cut the kookoo evenly into 4 large pieces and use a wide spatula to flip each piece over, 1 at a time. Drizzle 2 tablespoons oil in between the cuts, reduce heat to medium-low, and cook, uncovered, until cooked through, about 10 minutes. Cut into desired pieces and serve warm or at room temperature.

KOO KOO FOR KRACKERS!



KOO KOO For KRACKERS! image

This is my favorite home made cracker... bar none! They are easy and fun and so versatile. I buy my optional topping at the food co-op in bulk which is so much cheaper than buying little spice jars. These are great to snack on by themselves or with cheese, meats, fruits and dips. I like to break them into big pieces to give myself more options for displaying and serving.

Finish rolling out the dough all the way to the edges of the baking sheet (you can use your hands and fingers in need be). Cover the top of the cracker with desired optional ingredients. Gently but firmly press this into the dough.
  • Bake 12 to 16 minutes (checking a couple of times... don't want it to burn). Remove from oven. Let Cool. Break apart into large pieces. Store in airtight container for a couple of weeks.
