seitan stew, turnip greens, biscuits & gravy
on the comfort food note... - seitan stew with potatoes, turnips, carrots, celery, etc. - southern style turnip greens, cooked forever with onion, chili flakes, garlic, and margarine - homemade biscuits with gravy
I'd never made them either... I only made them because we had the extra greens from the turnips in the stew. They were really tasty though. I think the secret is cooking them to death... I sauteed them for around 40 minutes total
Biscuits (from The Compassionate Cook-- a cookbook I find v. hit or miss, btw. Beware.) 2 cups flour 1 Tbs. baking powder 1/2 tsp. salt 4 Tbs. margarine 3/4 cup soy milk
Mix dry ingredients. Cut in margarine w/ fork or pastry cutter. Add wet ingredients. Knead for a minute or two. Roll out, cut biscuits using a drinking glass. Bake at 450 for 10-12 minutes.
The Seitan Stew was from a recipe in the Balitmore Sun.
The turnip greens are from a Debroah Madison cookbook, Vegetarian Cooking for Everyone.
You know, I've never had turnip greens. Where have I been all these years?
