Hello Lynette,
No, I have not tried either of the recipes, sorry. "1 C. egg whites" is one
CUP of egg whites, preferably "Just Whites" pasteurized egg whites.
See below for 3 Amish hamburger casserole recipes.

Hello Yassmine,
I found one recipe for tortellini con panna, but I could not find one for
tortellini con brodo. See below.
Phaed
Tortellini Con Panna
2 pkg (12 oz.) frozen tortellini
1 pt. unsalted whipping cream
1/4 lb. butter (1 stick)
1 tsp nutmeg
1/2 c freshly grated Parmesan cheese
Cook the tortellini in boiling water for approx 15 minutes, or
as directed on package.
Meanwhile: in skillet, add cream, butter, salt & pepper to taste,
and nutmeg. Cook over low heat until blended. Let stand covered
until tortellini is ready. Drain tortellini in colander but do
not rinse. Add to cream mixture. Add cheese. Cook slowly,
stirring until sauce just begins to thicken. Remove from heat.
Serve immediately.

Hi Valerie,
See below.
Phaed
Povitica Bread
dough:
1/3 Cup of warm water
1 Package of Rapid Rise Yeast
1/3 Cup of brown sugar
1/4 Cup of butter ( softened )
2 teaspoons of salt
1/3 Cup of milk
2 eggs
3 1/2 to 4 1/2 Cups of unbleached flour
In a small bowl add the water and 1 teaspoon of sugar and mix. Add the yeast
set aside to rise for about 10 minutes.
In a large bowl mix sugar, butter, salt, milk and eggs till light and
fluffy. Beat in 1 cup of flour until well mixed. Add the yeast mixture and
mix with a wooden spoon. Stir in remaining flour and mix with a spoon until
the desired consistency. The dough should be very soft and moist but not
sticky. Put dough in a large buttered bowl and butter the top of the dough
lightly. Cover and let rise in a warm place until double in bulk.
Approximately 1 - 2 hours.
filling:
3 1/2 Cups of finely chopped walnuts
1 Cup of milk
1 1/2 Cups of dark brown sugar ( firmly packed )
1/4 Cup of butter
1/3 Cup of honey
2 egg yolks
2 egg whites beaten stiff
3 teaspoons of cinnamon
1 Tablespoon of vanilla
Boil milk and sugar together when the mix reaches the boiling point stir in
the nuts and add butter and honey. Set aside and let the mix cool and then
add the egg yolks, cinnamon and vanilla. Stir until mixed well then fold in
the beaten egg whites.
Divide the dough into 3 equal parts. Take one third of the dough and roll
out on a lightly floured surface. You are going to make this bread in a
jelly roll or cinnamon roll fashion. Once the dough is in a rectangle shape.
(Approximately a 9 x 13 size) Spoon some of the mixture out on the surface
of the dough and spread out to 1/2 inch to 1 inch away from the edges. Roll
up in a jelly roll fashion pulling it so it is tight without tearing. When
you are about 1/2 up the roll fold the outer ends in to the inside of the
bread. (this will keep the filling from leaking out) Continue to roll up
until you reach the end. Place in a well buttered bread pan and set aside in
a warm place until double in bulk. Repeat the process until you have
finished the other 2 rolls of bread. Bake at 300 degrees for approximately
45 minutes or until lightly golden brown. Cool 10 minutes before removing
from pans. You may dust with powdered sugar or make a glaze for the tops
depending on how you like it.

I once purchased a crepe-making device put out by the Magic Pan. It came with an excellent recipe book.
It had wonderful recipes for mousse, crab cakes, potstickers, etc. I've long since lost it but remember
well it's formula for Hollandaise sauce; in MHO, the best in the world.
Magic Pan Hollandaise Sauce:
It had 5 simple ingredients: 3 egg yolks, a tablespoon of lemon juice, a dash of salt, about 1/2 cube
of butter, and a 3 oz. package of creamcheese (the recipte can be doubled or tripled). You blend all
ingredients well in a blender or food processor. The recipe then called for the use of a double broiler
to cook the sauce until thickened. I quickly learned that using a microwave was much superior, involving
less mess and no chance of having boiling water spoil the mix. I place the sauce in a suitable glass or
porcelin (sp?) bowl, then set the microwave for 33 seconds at heating level 3 (simple) and push start.
When the 33 seconds is up I stir the sauce well with a wooden spoon and repeat the process until the
sauce thickens (leaving peaks when stirred). I've learned that it's perfectly all right to leave the
wooden spoon in the bowl while microwaving. This is delicious on eggs benedict and asparagus, etc.
I'd give almost anything to get my hands on that old Magic Pan cookbook.

A lot of other folks would like to have that cookbook, too...
