Hello Lauren,
Well, the Bible does not give Noah's wife a name. An even more ancient
recounting of the flood story, the Babylonian "Epic of Gilgamesh", in which
Noah is called "Uta-Napashtim", gives no wife's name, either. So, unless an
authentic ancient text is discovered that does give her name, we are left
with only speculation.
Some ancient Jewish traditions say Noah's wife was "Naamah", which means
"beautiful" or "pleasing". Naamah is said to have been the sister of
Tubal-Cain.
Other ancient traditions say that Noah married his niece, Amzarach, daughter
of Rakh'el.
The most widely held tradition is "Naamah."

Hi Nancy,
Below are three versions of this recipe.
Phaed
Unrolled Cabbage Rolls
Non-stick spray or saute liquid of your choice
1 c chopped onion
1 c sliced carrots
1 stalk celery, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, pressed
6 c chopped green cabbage
1 2/3 c water
1 8-oz can tomato sauce (1 cup)
3/4 c quick-cooking brown rice (NOT instant)
2 Tbsp sugar or other sweetener of your choice
1 Tbsp paprika
1 tsp dried oregano leaves
1/2 tsp salt, or to taste
1/4 tsp dried thyme, crumbled
1. Saute the onion, carrot, celery and garlic in a 4-1/2-quart saucepan or
Dutch oven, over medium-high heat, for 10 minutes.
2. Add the remaining ingredients, mix well, and bring the mixture to a
boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover the saucepan with a lid, and simmer
the mixture for 30 to 35 minutes. Do not stir or lift the lid until the
total cooking time has elapsed.
3. Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the mixture rest,
covered, for 5 minutes.
4. Stir to mix well and serve hot.
Yield: 4 servings
NOTE: This recipe must be made with QUICK-COOKING brown rice.
Do not substitute regular brown rice. The acid in the tomato-based
sauce prevents regular brown rice from absorbing sufficient moisture
to thoroughly soften and cook.

Subject: egg batter
Sir,
This was a coating used for veal in resturant I dined in. The Chef
said it was an egg batter, it fried a light golden brown, was light
and fluffy. Similer to a light pastry crust , light as a crepe.
I would sure apperciate any help on this.
Thank You,
Jean
Hello Jean,
Well, a basic egg batter would be like the first one below. An Italian egg batter might be like the second one.
But the one you had could have been Swiss or German or French or even Spanish. I'd have to know the name of the
veal dish as it was on the menu and/or the type of restaurant to narrow it down any.
Phaed
Egg batter for veal or chicken
6 eggs
Pinch salt
Pinch white pepper
Pinch chopped parsley
Beat eggs with the salt, pepper and parsley.
coat both sides of veal in flour, then dip in egg batter
Saute in oil until golden brown.
----------------------------------
Seasoned Egg Batter
Makes enough to coat 1 1/2 pounds of meat or fish
4 large eggs
1/4 cup freshly grated Pecorino Romano cheese
2 teaspoon minced Italian parsley
Salt and pepper to taste
In a small bowl, whisk eggs, cheese, parsley, salt and pepper
vigorously until well blended. Use immediately as a batter for
breaded meat or fish.

Sir,
I thank you for your fast response. The dish I was refering to
was Veal Parmesan. I was quite fond of it as a child.
This coating was used all over the east coast, I had it from N.Y.
to Florida.The batter had no seasoning in it, bye itself it would
be bland. Could possible foward te german and french recipe's to me.
I would like to try and make fillet of pork parmesan.
Thank You,
Jean
Hi Jean,
Then, since veal parmesan is an Italian dish, perhaps the best thing would be for me to send you some veal parmesan recipes.
See below. Both of these use an egg batter. The German and French egg batter recipes that I mentioned were just recipes that
I came across while searching before. I didn't save them. I was thinking of wiener schnitzel, the Swiss/German veal dish, when
I searched before.
Phaed

1 lb. Veal, sliced 1/4" thick
2 eggs, beaten
3/4 cups bread crumbs
4 Tbsp. parsley, chopped

3/4 lb. mozzarella, sliced

Cut veal into 4 serving pieces and pound slightly. Combine
bread crumbs, parsley, Parmesan cheese, salt and pepper.
Dip veal into eggs then bread crumbs coating both sides.
Heat olive oil; saute veal until golden brown.
Spread 1/2 cup tomato sauce on the bottom of a baking pan.
Arrange veal on sauce and pour additonal sauce on top.

Remove from oven and top each piece of veal with slices of mozzarella.
Bake 5 minutes until cheese is melted.
