Jongewaard's Bake 'n Broil From: Michelle Sent: Monday, February 03, 2014 3:49 PM To: phaedrus@hungrybrowser.com Subject: Looking for Bake n Broil recipes Hi Uncle Phaedrus, There's a great restaurant in Long Beach, CA, called Jongewaard's Bake n Broil. They have the best baked goods (pies, cakes, muffins, cupcakes, quiche, etc.) and wonderful homemade soups (the vegetable beef is my favorite). I would love any of their recipes, or "taste-alike" versions. I've been unsuccessful in my search so far. Thanks for looking! Sincerely, Michelle Hello Michelle, Sorry, there do not appear to be any recipes or taste-like’s available for any of the products from Jongewaard's Bake n Broil. Bake n Broil has a website here: Bake n Broil There’s an article about them here: Lat Times Blogs And another one here: OC Weekly Phaed Hungarian Filbert Torte with Mocha Frosting From: Magda Sent: Tuesday, February 11, 2014 3:24 PM To: phaedrus@hungrybrowser.com Hi, I’m looking for a recipe that is made with hazelnut, a little (1/4 cup) flour, bread crumbs. The cake or torte is filled with whipped cream and frosted with Mocha butter cream. I made this cake over 20 years ago, and I think it’s called Hungarian filbert torte; but I looked everywhere and could not find it, can you please help??? Magda Hello Magda, Where did you get the recipe originally? Most nut tortes appear to call for walnuts, and most have sweetened whipped cream for a topping. I found a Hungarian Hazelnut Torte with mocha here: Taste of Home There is an old Hungarian Filbert Torte recipe below, and below that is a “Log Torte” with a choice of nuts including filberts and a mocha filling. These are the closest recipes that I could find to your description. Phaed Hungarian Filbert Torte — One-half cup of bread crumbs, one and one-half cups of powdered sugar, grated rind of one lemon, juice of one-half lemon, one-half pound of grated filberts, eight whites of eggs beaten stiff, eight yolks.
