Friedman<br /> what is a pareve substitue for sweetened condensed milk?</p> <p>GKC answer: There is no perfect substitution for sweetened condensed milk. We have a few things that do work although they change the flavor of the recipe somewhat. It depends what you are using it in and sometime these options work well. Substitute cream of coconut (although coconut flavored, it is rich, creamy and pareve) or make a roux with margarine and flour (melt 3 Tablespoons margarine, whisk in 3 Tablespoons flour), add 1/2 milk (pareve, either soymilk or coffee rich/mocha mix), and 3 Tablespoons of sugar, warm and simmer it until it thickens and reduces a bit. </p> http://gourmetkoshercooking.com/community/topic.php?id=16#post-26 Mon, 14 Jun 2010 06:40:23 +0000 Emuna 26@http://gourmetkoshercooking.com/community/ <p>from: Rachel</p> <p>In our family, paninis are the default lunch or snack. Once a week, I make a few tapenades, spreads, pestos, keeping them very simple so they don't overpower other ingredients. I use either pitted black or green olives any variety, sundried tomatos in olive oil, fresh basil etc. To each of these ingredients, I add olive oil, garlic, salt pepper and any other herbs lying around. (I forgo the anchovies because some kids find it too strong). Process. Place each in a small glass jar and top with a thin layer of olive oil to preserve. Leave in the fridge and encourage the family to use as healthy spreads either alone on grilled bread or as a sandwich base. Make them pareve and they can be used with cheese, grilled veges, tuna, grilled fish or alternatively with grilled steak or chicken or burgers.<br /> Sunday night, we use them to spice up shabbos leftover sandwhiches. Some good rustic bread, veges, greens and leftovers take on a whole new face! </p> http://gourmetkoshercooking.com/community/topic.php?id=14#post-25 Thu, 10 Jun 2010 18:57:23 +0000 Emuna 25@http://gourmetkoshercooking.com/community/ <p>Tuna tartare in martini glasses or homemade wonton cups is easy and gorgeous. Or try white grape gazpacho and add a little grilled pineapple and tuna skewers across the top for the WOW! factor. Recipes are in the index. </p> http://gourmetkoshercooking.com/community/topic.php?id=15#post-24 Thu, 10 Jun 2010 18:53:57 +0000 Emuna 24@http://gourmetkoshercooking.com/community/ <p>We are impressed and you haven't even gone to the market yet! Start with the citrus salad (add a piece of lox if you want a fish course), then try the Dijon Chicken with Coconut Rice, schezuan green beans, and finish with either the chocolate chip pie or a chocolate pecan pie. Make sure to buy a great bottle of wine so that you can relax and enjoy your success. </p> http://gourmetkoshercooking.com/community/topic.php?id=13#post-23 Thu, 10 Jun 2010 18:48:33 +0000 Emuna 23@http://gourmetkoshercooking.com/community/ <p>We tried a few variations and thought this came close to what you described. We added caramelized apples too because they just melt into the kugel and pair so well with the fresh cranberries. The crumble topping is delicious as is or you can add grape nuts cereal for extra crunch.

You could also add it when cooking sauces on the stove-top if you need a hint of sweetness.This is a great option for people who are diabetic or trying to loose weight or maintain it. Stevia is much sweeter than regular sugar so you don't need as much, but you need to replace the volume lost with something like apple sauce, mushed banana, yogurt, or a mixture of liquids. Stevia is a herb and therefore has a slightly bitter aftertaste. In some recipes you may notice the aftertaste, and in others you may not. Its really a process of trial and error! </p> <p><strong>Simone Stromer, MD, CHC<br /> <a href="http://www.trudoctor.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.trudoctor.com</a></strong> </p> http://gourmetkoshercooking.com/community/topic.php?id=12#post-16 Thu, 18 Feb 2010 13:58:53 +0000 Emuna 16@http://gourmetkoshercooking.com/community/ <p>question from: dina sonnenblick<br /> do you know of a way to bake with stevia..or is mainly just to add a bit of sweetener to a drink? or a limited quantity of something? </p> http://gourmetkoshercooking.com/community/topic.php?id=11#post-15 Fri, 29 Jan 2010 07:32:26 +0000 Orly 15@http://gourmetkoshercooking.com/community/ <p>First portal that helps you to recruiting kosher kitchen employees<br /> <a HREF="http://www.cookitkosher.com ">http://www.cookitkosher.com</a></p> <p>You are looking for a new challenge - Post a CV button on the right of the Cookitkosher homepage.<br /> You have an open position in your business ?

Fresh air is the best way to get rid of that smell. Use a ceiling fan or external fan to circulate the air. And finally, make a batch of cookies to overwhelm the smell with fabulous baked cookie aroma. </p> http://gourmetkoshercooking.com/community/topic.php?id=7#post-9 Mon, 14 Dec 2009 12:19:30 +0000 Emuna 9@http://gourmetkoshercooking.com/community/ <p>This question may be more appropriate for your forum but I need to know how do I get the smell of Potato Latkes out of my kitchen! Whether I'm living in a small apt or have a large kitchen, the smell of oil, onions and potatoes lasts for days! Any advice would be appreciated. And thanks for the great,<br /> easy recipe!!!</p> <p>Question from Melisa </p> http://gourmetkoshercooking.com/community/topic.php?id=6#post-8 Tue, 01 Dec 2009 16:01:59 +0000 Elizabeth Kurtz 8@http://gourmetkoshercooking.com/community/ <p>Chanuka is just around the corner and I wanted to suggest a great gift for your kids. The music cd Soap Soup by Sam Glaser, available at <a href="http://www.samglaser.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.samglaser.com</a>, is fantastic for kids. Its packed with great songs and music including my kids favorites like Sarah, I want some ice cream, I'm Pretty Sure, and O Jesse O. While you are browsing his music check out all the other Jewish music, like Inspired, the Best of Sam Glaser. Order some, you will love him! </p> http://gourmetkoshercooking.com/community/topic.php?id=5#post-7 Mon, 30 Nov 2009 04:24:19 +0000 Elizabeth Kurtz 7@http://gourmetkoshercooking.com/community/ <p>Although many have commented on how much they enjoy the brick roast, many others have asked what is it? A brick roast is also called a square roast or a french cut square roast or just a french roast. It is thicker than a brisket but looks similar. It should have a nice deep red color and no odor. </p> http://gourmetkoshercooking.com/community/topic.php?id=4#post-6 Mon, 30 Nov 2009 02:43:26 +0000 lweinman 6@http://gourmetkoshercooking.com/community/ <p>Surely there must be someone other than myself that cannot eat food with sugar or flour in it. For most recipes I can adapt them just fine using splenda.</p> <p>I'm just wondering if anyone knows of a good cookbook that addresses these issues. Maybe a diabetic cookbook?</p> <p>I can't have grains or starches either. It sounds extremely difficult, but I fill up on fruit, protein and veggies.</p> <p>Any suggesions?</p> <p>Thanks,</p> <p>Laura </p> http://gourmetkoshercooking.com/community/topic.php?id=3#post-5 Thu, 26 Nov 2009 00:09:11 +0000 musicgal07 5@http://gourmetkoshercooking.com/community/ <p>Don't forget Chanukah music! That always makes it so much fun for the kids.

We usually start a little before Chanukah, but we are still working on it during Chanukah. We make a mosaic/stained glass window, if you will, on our sliding glass door. Each year, I draw in soap, dreidels, latkes, chanukiah, whatever the kids want. They are in charge of tearing many pieces of different colored tissue paper. We make a mixture of elmer's glue and water and take paint brushes and put glue on the window and put tissue paper on top. We overlap a lot of different colors. Have paper towels ready! This isn't a one evening activity. When finished, it's beautiful.--- Come over and see it and have a latke too!</p> <p>This year, my daughter made a card game for a Chanukah project for her school. It's called, "Have a Latke." She fashioned it like "Go Fish". It has Judah, a shield, dreidels, Antiochus....we laminated it!<br /> The same child wrote a Chanukah story that we took to Office Depot and had put on glossy paper and spiral bound.</p> <p>Why not make jelly doughnuts? Buy some squeeze condiment bottles at the 99 cent store and put the jelly in it. You can poke the squeeze bottle into the doughnut and fill them that way!</p> <p>Play dreidel....have a lot of chocolate gelt on hand.</p> <p>For the adults....have a latke/games night. Make zucchini, sweet potato, parsnip, potato--whatever different vegetables you want latkes.</p> <p>The possibilities are endless and so much fun! </p> http://gourmetkoshercooking.com/community/topic.php?id=3#post-3 Mon, 23 Nov 2009 16:23:14 +0000 Emuna 3@http://gourmetkoshercooking.com/community/ <p>We are look for fun and/or meaningful activities to do with kids over Chanukah.
