Cheryl’s Recipe Corner!

Apple Beer and Butter Turkey

Description

Russ and I enjoyed a turkey over last weekend that used a recipe similar to this, and we will use this recipe on Thanksgiving day as we have Friendsgiving with our friends!

Ingredients

1/2 cup (56g) butter

2/3 cup (160ml) hard apple cider or apple cider or juice (or beer of choice)

1 tablespoon salt

1-1/2 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

1 tablespoon soy sauce

2 teaspoons onion powder

2 teaspoons garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper

1 (15 pound) (6.8kg) turkey completely thawed

Directions

In a small saucepan melt butter over medium-low heat. Stir in the cider (or juice or beer), salt, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, onion powder, garlic powder, and cayenne pepper. Bring to a boil and remove from heat. Fill a culinary injector with the hot sauce and inject the turkey in several spots. I also like to make sure some of the sauce is drizzled over the skin. It really helps to make the skin golden brown. Place turkey in a roasting pan and bake at 325 degrees F for 4 hours or until meat thermometer inserted in the breast reads 165 degrees F. Remove from oven and let rest 20-30 minutes before carving. (this step is very important or the juices will just go everywhere)

New England Express

Description

The day is hard enough. Shaking cocktails would be suicide! Punch, however, works. In a nod to early New England Thanksgivings, I use two regional pours: rum (big in the Colonial days) and cider. Unlike most punches, this one won’t leave you under the table after two glasses.

Ingredients (Thyme Simple Syrup)

1/3 cup sugar

1/3 cup water

8 sprigs thyme

Ingredients (Cocktail)

2 cups apple cider

1-1/2 cups dark rum

3/4 cup fresh lime juice

1 teaspoon Angostura bitters

Club soda

8 sprigs thyme

8 lime slices

Directions (Thyme Simple Syrup)

Bring sugar and 1/3 cup water to a boil in a small saucepan, stirring to dissolve sugar. Remove from heat, add thyme sprigs, and cover. Let stand 10 minutes, then strain into a small jar. Let cool. (DO AHEAD) Syrup can be made 1 month ahead. Cover and chill. ASSEMBLY: Mix thyme syrup, cider, rum, lime juice, and bitters in a pitcher. Divide among rocks glasses filled with ice; top off with club soda. Garnish with thyme sprigs and lime slices. (DO AHEAD) Thyme syrup, cider, rum, lime juice, and bitters can be mixed 4 hours ahead. Cover and chill.

Freezer-Friendly Everything Bagel Biscuit Bombs

Description

I rarely do breakfast things, so it’s time to change that!  I’m a huge fan of pre-made breakfast options… and this is a great item for a “grab and go” breakfast!

Ingredients

5 eggs

1 tablespoon butter

3/4 cup shredded Cheddar cheese (3 oz)

1 cup fully cooked original frozen pork sausage crumbles, thawed (from 9.6-oz bag)

1 can (16.3 oz) refrigerated extra large layer refrigerated biscuits (8 count)

1 tablespoon water

1 1/2 teaspoons everything bagel seasoning blend (with sea salt, garlic and onion)

Directions

Heat oven to 350°F. Line large cookie sheet with cooking parchment paper, or spray with cooking spray. In medium bowl, add 4 of the eggs; beat well with whisk. In 10-inch nonstick skillet, melt butter over medium heat; tilt pan to coat. Pour in beaten eggs; cook 1 1/2 to 2 1/2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until eggs are firm but still moist. Remove from heat; stir in cheese until melted. Add sausage crumbles, and stir mixture well; cool 5 minutes. Separate dough into 8 biscuits; let stand 5 minutes. Gently pull biscuit apart partially, leaving bottom and lower sides intact, forming a deep pocket. Place 1/4 cup egg mixture inside, pressing inside to fit. Gently stretch dough over filling, pressing and firmly sealing around edges of biscuit. Reshape into round, and place on cookie sheet. (Biscuits will be full.) Repeat for remaining biscuits. In small bowl, add remaining egg and the water; beat well with whisk. Brush egg wash mixture on top of each biscuit. Sprinkle tops of biscuits evenly with bagel seasoning. Bake 18 to 22 minutes or until biscuit tops are golden brown and inside mixture is heated through. Serve immediately, or transfer to cooling rack, and refrigerate until cool, about 45 minutes; freeze for later use.

To Freeze and Reheat: Wrap each cooled biscuit tightly in plastic wrap and a layer of foil. Transfer to large resealable food-storage freezer bag, and place in freezer. To reheat from frozen, remove one biscuit from storage bag; unwrap completely. Wrap biscuit in paper towel; place on microwavable plate. Microwave on Medium-Low (30%) 1 minute; microwave on High 1 to 1 1/2 minutes or until sandwich is heated through and center is at least 165°F. Let stand 1 minute before serving.

New Riff Kentucky Straight Rye

Description

New Riff Distilling’s core Rye whiskey is full-bodied, offering hugely spicy character. Building upon America’s 1897 Bottled-in-Bond Act—already the highest quality standard for aged spirits in the world—New Riff Rye is Bottled In Bond Without Chill Filtration. Featuring a unique mashbill of 95% rye and 5% malted rye, it represents a new riff on our hallowed local Rye whiskey traditions. Aged four years in full-size 53-gallon toasted and charred new oak barrels, there are no shortcuts taken in its traditional production. All New Riff whiskeys are made with the full sour mash Kentucky Regimen; all carry an age statement and are always bottled without chill filtration. Our distillers learned the black arts of the hardest whiskey in the world to make—the famed 95% Rye—under the direct tutelage of the distiller who mastered it in Indiana, Larry Ebersold of Seagram’s. Taking Master Larry’s instruction in hand, we put a riff on it to the tune of adding 5% malted rye, a unique twist that aids in pulling additional flavors out of the rye and adds a touch of the elegance of malted rye.

Details

Mashbill: 95% rye, 5% malted rye

Proof: 100 (50% ABV)

Region: Newport, Kentucky

Color: Golden amber

Nose: Mint, black pepper, vanilla, lemon zest, oily oak

Taste: Cinnamon, vanilla, toffee, rye spice, caramel, toasted oak

Finish: Rye spice, vanilla, brown sugar, grassy flavor with hints of anise

Price: $50 (750ml)

Rating: 89

Glazed Apple Cider Cake

Description

Right now apples are being harvested across the US, and I always associate fall with apples and pumpkins.  Today I have a great recipe for a Bundt Cake that will be great for fall dinners!

Ingredients (Cake)

Cooking spray

1 (15.25 ounce) package white cake mix

1 cup apple cider

4 eggs

1/2 cup butter, melted

1 (4 ounce) package instant vanilla pudding mix

Ingredients (Glaze)

1 cup confectioners’ sugar

3/4 cup apple cider

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a fluted tube pan (such as Bundt®) with cooking spray. Combine cake mix, 1 cup apple cider, eggs, butter, and vanilla pudding mix in a large bowl; mix until smooth. Pour batter into the tube pan. Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 40 minutes. Stir confectioners’ sugar and 3/4 cup apple cider together in a small bowl to make the glaze. Pour glaze over the cake and let soak into the cake and down the sides of the pan, about 30 minutes. Invert onto a plate and cool completely, about 30 minutes.
