Phaedrus,
I am searching for a recipe that had orange marmalade or apricot preserves
combined with lots of black pepper, etc., spread over cream cheese, and
served with crackers. I have searched the net and am unable to find.
Your help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Sue
Hello Sue,
Well, I can't find anything like that, either. I've never heard of anything like that with black pepper.
However, here in the South, we make something called "red pepper jelly" or "jalapeno pepper jelly".
This jelly is an unusual combination of hot and sweet flavors, and we serve it with cream cheese on crackers.
It's delicious! You can buy pepper jelly online.
Phaed
I did find this:
Jezabelle Sauce
1 jar apple jelly
1 jar apricot preserves
3/4 c. dry mustard
Horseradish, to taste
Crack black pepper, to taste
8 oz. cream cheese
Mix above ingredients and place in jars (jelly) and refrigerate until used.
To serve, pour over block of cream cheese and add assorted crackers.

Hi Wendy,
I think what you want is "savoiardi". These are Italian lady fingers. I'm
sending you two recipes. The second one is probably the most authentic. The
potato starch is an important part of what makes these different from
ordinary lady fingers.
Phaed
Savoiardi - (lady fingers)
3 eggs, separated
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup sugar
1/2 cup sifted cake flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
Beat egg yolk until thick and lemon colored. Beat in almond extract.
Beat egg whites until stiff, but not dry, and gradually beat in sugar until
whites are glossy and
very stiff.
Fold egg yolks gently into whites.
Fold in sifted dry ingredients.
Drop batter by tablespoons on ungreased cookie sheet forming fingers in 3
inch long and 1 inch wide. Bake in moderate 350F oven 10 minutes, until
light brown.
Remove immediately from cookie sheet and cool on rack. Makes 3 dozen.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Savoiardi are a Piemontese specialty that resemble lady fingers, though
they're about twice as thick.
To make them at home you will need:
1/2 cup less 2 tablespoons potato starch
1 1/4 cups cake flour
4 eggs, separated
2/3 cup sugar
1 tablespoon margarine
Powdered sugar
Preheat the oven to 375 F (185 C).
Sift a cup of the flour with the potato starch.
Grease a sheet of paper with the margarine and use it to line a cookie
sheet, then dust the sheet with the remaining flour and discard what
doesn't stick.
Whip the whites until stiff and incorporate half a cup of the sugar,
then beat the yolks in another bowl with the remaining sugar. Fold the
yolks into the whites, and then fold in the flour gradually with the aid
of the sifter. Pour the batter into a pastry bag and pour it out into
three inch strips on the cookie sheet, separating them by about an inch.
Let the batter sit for one or two minutes, dust the cookies with powdered
sugar, and bake them for about ten minutes. They should puff up, brown
lightly, and be soft. Leave them on the sheet for five minutes after
removing it from the oven, then put them on a rack. Put them in a tightly
sealed container when they have cooled; they will be better the next day
and will keep for a few weeks.

Hi liz,
I found quite a few of these recipes. They don't all contain tapioca, and
they aren't all called stay abed stew.
The first two recipes were the ones I found most often, but they don't
contain tapioca. The next three do contain tapioca. The last three do
contain tapioca, but aren't called "stay abed", although they are basically
the same thing.

Hi I hope you can help.
I lost a meatloaf recipe and have not been able to duplicate it.
It was on one of those laminated cards they send you in a pack in
the mail. On one side was the oven method and the other was the
microwave method. I would say I got it in the early 90's
there was ketchup, mustard, Worcestershire sauce and tomato juice
in it.
It had a topping of ketchup and brown sugar mixture. I would love
this recipe back!!! If you can help--please E me!!!
Lin
Hi Lin,
Well, there's no way that I can locate a recipe that was on those recipe cards.
I don't have them, and they aren't on the Internet.
All I can do is send you a few recipes with similar ingredients. See below.
