Special Equipment

  2. Pulse onion, jalapeño, garlic, cilantro, and parsley in food processor, scraping down sides as needed, until coarsely chopped, about 1 minute. Mix into chickpeas, then mix in chickpea flour, salt, baking powder, cardamom, and cumin. Form into ping-pong–size balls.

Queso-Filled Mini Peppers Recipe

Queso-Filled Mini Peppers Recipe
Tortilla chips usually go hand-in-hand with queso, but mini sweet peppers make a tasty and colorful bite-sized vessel for the rich cheese dip. Don’t worry if the queso looks a little broken when the cheese melts in the evaporated milk, the cream cheese will make it smooth again. Pickled jalapeños add a tangy note to the dip, but if you like your queso extra spicy, use finely chopped fresh jalapeños instead.
Author:
Cuisine: American
Recipe type: Main dish
Ingredients
  • 2 (16-oz.) pkg. mini sweet peppers
  • 1 tablespoon canola oil
  • ¾ teaspoon kosher salt, divided
  • 8 ounces pepper Jack cheese,
  • shredded (about 2 cups)
  • ½ cup evaporated milk
  • 2 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • ¼ cup chopped pickled jalapeños
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • ½ cup panko (Japanese-style
  • breadcrumbs)
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoon finely chopped fresh
  • cilantro
Instructions
  1. Preheat broiler on HIGH with oven rack 5 inches from heat. Toss peppers with oil and 1⁄2 teaspoon of the salt; arrange in a single layer on an aluminum foil-lined rimmed baking sheet. Broil until tops are lightly charred, 3 to 5 minutes. Let cool to room temperature, 30 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 425°F.
  2. Flip over peppers so charred side is on bottom; cut and remove top third of each pepper (from stem end to tip). Discard cut-off part, or reserve for another use. Scoop out membranes and seeds, and discard.
  3. Whisk together pepper Jack cheese and milk in the top of a double boiler over simmering water over medium. Whisk until smooth, 5 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in cream cheese, jalapeños, and remaining 1⁄4 teaspoon salt. Spoon a heaping teaspoon of cheese mixture into each pepper. Place on a baking sheet. Bake until tops are golden, 5 minutes.
  4. Meanwhile, melt butter in a skillet over medium. Add panko and pepper; cook, stirring, until golden brown, 3 more minutes. Sprinkle peppers with panko mixture and cilantro.

Big Apple Dumplings

Big Apple Dumplings
This dumpling recipe was a winner in the Better Homes and Gardens October 1950 Cooks Round Table. The homemade pastry is worth the effort for this favorite dessert, and the fruit filling is super easy.
Author:
Cuisine: American
Recipe type: Dessert
Ingredients
  • 2 cups water
  • 1¼ cups sugar
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ¼ cup butter or margarine
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ⅔ cup shortening
  • ⅓ - ½cup half-and-half, light cream, or whole milk
  • 2 tablespoons chopped raisins or golden raisins
  • 2 tablespoons chopped walnuts
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 6 small cooking apples (about 1-1/2 pounds)
  • 1 tablespoon butter or margarine
Instructions
  1. For sauce, in a medium saucepan combine the water, the 1-1/4 cups sugar, and ½ teaspoon cinnamon. Bring to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer, uncovered, for 5 minutes. Add the ¼ cup butter or margarine. Set aside.
  2. Meanwhile, for pastry, combine the flour and salt. Using a pastry blender, cut in shortening until pieces are the size of small peas. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of the half-and-half, light cream, or milk over part of the mixture; gently toss with a fork. Push moistened dough to the side of the bowl. Repeat moistening dough, using 1 tablespoon of the cream or milk at a time, until all of the dough is moistened. Form dough into a ball. On a lightly floured surface, roll dough to an 18x12-inch rectangle.* Using a pastry wheel or sharp knife, cut into six 6-inch squares.
  3. In a small mixing bowl combine the raisins, walnuts, and honey. In another small bowl stir together the 2 tablespoons sugar and the ½ teaspoon cinnamon. Set aside.
  4. Peel and core the apples. Place an apple on each pastry square. Fill centers of apples with raisin mixture. Sprinkle with sugar-cinnamon mixture; dot with the 1 tablespoon butter or margarine. Moisten edges of each pastry square with water; fold corners to center over apple. Pinch to seal. Place dumplings in a 2-quart rectangular baking dish. Pour sauce over dumplings. Bake in a 375 degree F oven for 35 minutes or until apples are tender and pastry is golden brown. To serve, spoon sauce over dumplings. Makes 6 servings.
