STIR-FRIED SPINACH IN GARLIC SAUCE

Steps:

• In a glass measure stir together the broth, the soy sauce, the Scotch, the vinegar, the cornstarch, and the sugar until the cornstarch is dissolved. In a wok or large deep heavy skillet heat the oil over high heat until it is hot but not smoking, in it stir-fry the garlic and the gingerroot for 30 seconds, or until the garlic is golden, and add the spinach in batches, stir-frying until each batch is wilted slightly before adding each new one. Stir the cornstarch mixture, add it to the wok, and stir-fry the mixture mixture for 1 to 2 minutes, or until the spinach is wilted evenly and the sauce is thickened. Serve the spinach with the rice.

GARLIC CREAMED SPINACH

GARLIC SAUTEED SPINACH

Steps:

• Rinse the spinach well in cold water to make sure it's very clean. Spin it dry in a salad spinner, leaving just a little water clinging to the leaves.
• In a very large pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil and saute the garlic over medium heat for about 1 minute, but not until it's browned. Add all the spinach, the salt, and pepper to the pot, toss it with the garlic and oil, cover the pot, and cook it for 2 minutes. Uncover the pot, turn the heat on high, and cook the spinach for another minute, stirring with a wooden spoon, until all the spinach is wilted. Using a slotted spoon, lift the spinach to a serving bowl and top with the butter, a squeeze of lemon, and a sprinkling of sea or kosher salt. Serve hot.

LINDA'S ONIONS IN GARLIC CHEESE SAUCE

Steps:

• Slice or dice the butter into small pieces, and melt it over low heat in a NON-aluminum saucepan.
• It's important to avoid aluminum, because it tends to turn light-colored sauces an unappetizing gray hue.
• When the butter has begun to foam and bubble, vigorously mix in the flour with a wooden spoon, or wire whisk.
• If you want your final sauce to be white, make absolutely sure not to let the roux turn brown.
• If it does begin to get tinged with beige, turn down the burner, or remove the pot from the heat altogether, to let the roux cool down for a few seconds.
• Let cook and bubble 2-3 minutes, until the roux is smooth, and has the consistency of cake frosting.
• This removes the floury taste.
• When making a roux-based sauce, always be sure that the roux and the liquid (milk or stock) are different temperatures before you combine them.
• If the roux is hot, the liquid should be cold; if the roux is cold, the liquid should be hot.
• Combining the 2 ingredients at different temperatures allows them to heat up at a moderate rate, not too fast, and not too slow, ensuring a velvety-smooth, lump-free sauce.
• If you're not yet a sauce expert, try the hot liquid/cold roux approach first.
• That way, you can gradually add roux until the sauce is the exact thickness you like.
• Gradually stir in milk, Parmesan cheese, and garlic powder.
• Bring to boil, and then reduce heat.
• Let simmer 3-5 minutes, or until thickened.
• Keep warm.
• Cook onions in boiling water, until fork inserted in center, goes in easily, 15-20 mins.
• You don't want the onions to be mushy.
• Strain, and put in serving dish.
• Pour sauce over onions.
• Sprinkle with salt and pepper, and serve.
