Subject: Hudson Gardens veal cutlet recipe?
No matter how many years have passed since the 60's I have never forgotten
the veal cutlet Parmesan it was my favorite dish and the place I took my
wife on out first dinner date.... Oh how I miss the old Burg??. I am a
pretty good cook and Italian dishes my major but I can't seem to duplicate
the cutlet it was nice and plump not thin pounded out and tasteless like
most recipes I suspect the cutlets was a respectable piece of veal leg at
least 3/8 thick cutlet breaded and fried. Desperately searching for the
recipe can anyone help? J.R.
Hello JR,
Is this the Hudson (Beer) Gardens in Trenton, NJ? I am finding multiple
establishments named "Hudson Gardens."

Oh yes the Hudson Gardens on the corner of Mott and Clinton I believe
Hello JR,
I believe it was on the corner of Hudson & Mott.
I had no success finding anything at all about the veal parmesan or veal cutlet parmigiana from there.
I'll post this for reader input.

Subject: Chicken Parisian
Dear Phaedrus-
My mother used to make a recipe from Craig Claiborne called Chicken
Parisian. I may have the spelling incorrect.
I believe it was published in the New York Times in in the 70’s. I would
love to make it for my sister’s birthday as she
was a big fan.
Thank you for any help you can give me.
Thanks,
Kathy
Hi Kathy,
Although I found multiple recipes called "chicken parisian", "parisian
chicken", "chicken parisienne", and "poulet parisienne", I could not find
any mention at all online of such a recipe by Craig Claiborne.
Below are a sampling of the recipes that I did find. The first one is
typical of the majority of recipes by those names.
I must admit that we do not have any Craig Claiborne cookbooks. I'll post
this for reader input.
Phaed

Subject: Magic Fudge
Dear Phaedrus,
In 1972, I worked in Seattle and was given a "Magic Fudge" recipe which was our family favorite
for many years until one of my daughters accidentally lost the recipe after making our Christmas
tradition gift of this fudge. We have tried duplicating it with no success.
The ingredients I remember were :
Butter
Evaporated milk
Semi sweet chocolate chips
Milk chocolate
Mini marshmallows
Marshmallow cream
Sugar
Nuts (optional)
I have looked at the recipes you have listed for fudge but though similar, they are not the same.
CORRECTION:
It was called Dream Fudge
Thank you,
Debby
Hi Debby,
I found dozens of fudge recipes with similar ingredients to your description. They have basically
the same ingredients, and are called by several names, including Dream Fudge, Fantasy Fudge, and
Three Minute Fudge. However, they all call for either marshmallow crème or mini marshmallows or
sometimes regular marshmallows. I could not find even one recipe that called for both marshmallow
crème and mini marshmallows. I believe a “dream fudge” recipe was on the Kraft Marshmallow cream
jar at one time, and also that one was on the Kraft “Jet-Puffed” marshmallows bag at one time,
but those called for either the crème or the marshmallows – not both.
See the examples on these sites and below:
Kraft Fantasy Fudge
Marshmallow Dream Fudge
Phaed
Dream Fudge
3 c. sugar
3/4 c. butter
2/3 c. evaporated milk
Marshmallow creme
12 oz. pkg. chocolate chips
1 tsp. vanilla
1 c. nuts, optional
Over medium heat; mix sugar, butter and evaporated milk together, stirring constantly. Boil for 5 minutes.
Remove from heat. Stir in chocolate chips and vanilla. When chips are melted add marshmallow creme and nuts.
Mix thoroughly and pour immediately into a greased (buttered) 8 x 8 x 2 inch pan.
-------------------------------------
Marshmallow Fudge
2 1/4 cups of sugar
3/4 cup of evaporated milk
1/4 cup of margarine
1/4 teaspoon of salt
1 cup of marshmallow cream (or 16 lg. marshmallows)
6 oz. package of semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 teaspoon of vanilla
Chopped nuts (optional)
Mix together sugar, evaporated milk, margarine and salt. Then bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly.
Remove mixture from heat and add remaining ingredients. Pour into buttered pan and chill.
---------------------------------------------------------
Three-Minute Fudge
2/3 c. evaporated milk
1 2/3 c. sugar
1/2 tsp. salt
2 c. miniature marshmallows
1 1/2 c. semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 tsp. vanilla
1/2 c. chopped nuts
Mix milk, sugar and salt in a 2 quart saucepan. Heat to boiling over low heat. Boil and stir 3 minutes.
Remove from heat, add marshmallows, chocolate chips, vanilla and nuts, stirring until marshmallows and
chocolate are melted. Pour into buttered square pan, 9 x 9 x 2 inches. Refrigerate until firm.
Cut into 1 1/2 inch squares. Makes 3 dozen.
