VINCENT PRICE CAESAR SALAD

Steps:

• Night before serving (or 8 hours before): crush the garlic and add into the olive oil, then chill overnight in glass container in refrigerator.
• About an hour before serving: tear the leaves from the lettuce, wash well, and dry thoroughly (a salad spinner works well); chill in refrigerator.
• When ready to make salad: strain and remove the garlic from the infused chilled olive oil.
• Trim the crusts from the stale bread, cut into cubes, and brown them by sautéing over medium heat in 1/4 cup of the garlic-infused olive oil, turning them to brown on all sides; drain on paper towels and set aside.
• Pour the remaining infused oil into a jar and add the cayenne, Tabasco, sugar, and anchovies (which Mr Vincent says are optional, but you shouldn't try to make real Caesar dressing without them), cover with lid, and shake well to mix.
• Break the chilled lettuce leaves into pieces and place in a large bowl; sprinkle the lettuce with the pepper and salt, then pour the olive oil mixture over and mix to thoroughly coat the leaves.
• Put water in a pot and bring to a full boil, then take the egg and boil it for 1 minute; remove, crack the shell, and drop it into the salad.
• Sprinkle the lemon juice over the egg in the salad and then gently stir the egg into the leaves- it will come to have a creamy appearance.
• Presentation: when ready to serve the salad, sprinkle the Parmesan cheese over it and then the croutons, then toss lightly to mix and serve immediately.
• Great with garlic bread!

DR. CHICKEN'S DOUBLE SMOKED HAM

Steps:

• Glaze Recipe: Blend all ingredients in a sauce pan with a wire whip and heat slightly until everything combines into a viscous or thick looking sauce.
• Ham Cooking Recipe: This can be done on a grill over indirect heat or in a water smoker or other type of cooker, again over indirect heat or "low & slow" type cooking. Do not tent over ham if done on grill, water smoker or other cooker; as this prevents smoke from penetrating the ham.
• Place water soaked chunks of mesquite, hickory or pecan in smoker 5 minutes before putting ham in the smoker. If even more smoke flavor is desired, place ham in freezer for 1 to 1 ½ hours prior to cooking to allow outer edges of ham to start to freeze. You don't want the ham frozen hard.
• If using a water smoker, fill water pan ¾ full with hot water and add 2 cups of orange, pineapple, or orange/pineapple mix, sweetened grapefruit or apple juice to the water. (all of them act as tenderizer as the steam penetrates the meat.).
• With smoker temperature maintained at approx 225F, cook for 25 to 30 minutes per lb. until internal temp on the ham shows 135F-140°F After removing from the heat, wrap in foil and it will climb up to approx 145F internally. The ham will retain it moistness and the flavor will go thru out the ham this way.
• Baste ham with glazing sauce every 10 to 15 minutes during the last hour of cooking time. Glazing compound will burn, so do not start glazing the ham until the internal temp of the ham reaches 120°.

VINCENT PRICE'S CHICKEN SWEET AND HOT

Steps:

• Combine all of the above ingredients, except chicken, in a pan.
• Heat gently, stirring until jelly is blended and sauce is smooth (it doesn't really thicken a lot, just a little bit).
• Cool.
• Pour sauce over 1 quartered chicken and marinate for 2 or 3 hours (I had a change of plans the day I prepared the marinade; mine marinated overnight).
• Cover and cook in preheated moderate oven (I used 350 degrees F for the first 40 minutes, then raised it to 375 degrees F).
• Uncover, increase oven temperature to hot (I raised it to 425 degrees F) and baste frequently until chicken is an even dark brown.
• (Before I put the chicken in at the higher temperature, I used a large spoon to take out some of the marinade/basting sauce; it seemed to make a lot to me-- I left just enough in the dish to use for basting, but not so little that it would burn at the high) Serve with rice.

POLISH VEAL BALLS WITH DILL

Steps:

• mix the bread with the onions, egg and meat thoroughly. Add salt and pepper.
• Form small balls for the mixture and roll them in flour. Brown in hot butter on all sides.
• Pour broth over veal balls, cover and simmer for about 20 minutes. Remove to a warm serving platter.
• Add the rest of the flour to the pan drippings, and bring to a boil. Remove from the heat and season with salt, adding the sour cream and dill. Pour over meat.
