New England Boiled Dinner
2 1/2 - 3 lb. picnic ham 3-4 garlic cloves 4-5 bay leaves Approx. 12 peppercorns 4-5 sm. onions (halved) Potatoes Cabbage Carrots Kielbasa (ring)
Place ham in large Dutch oven. Cover with hot tap water. Add spices, simmer 1 1/2 hours. Drain some water to add remaining ingredients. Simmer another 1 hour.
How about some Apple Crisp?
* 3 pounds tart apples * 2 tablespoons lemon juice * 1/2 cup light brown sugar, packed * 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon * 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg * 1/3 cup all-purpose flour * 1/3 cup granulated sugar * 1/3 cup rolled oats * 4 tablespoons cold butter (1/2 stick) * 1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans
Preparation: Peel, core and chop the apples; toss in a bowl with lemon juice. In a separate bowl, combine the brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg; add to the apples and toss to combine.
In another bowl combine flour, sugar and oats. Cut butter into 8 small pieces, and cut butter into flour with a pastry blender or two forks until mixture is crumbly. Stir in the chopped nuts.
Butter a 9-inch square baking dish. Spread apple mixture in bottom of baking dish then sprinkle with flour mixture. Bake at 375° for 30 to 45 minutes, or until apples are tender and topping is lightly browned.
Serve warm or at room temperature, with vanilla ice cream or a little heavy cream, if desired.
Try this for a new and fun recipe!
Savory Stuffed Pumpkin:
* 1-1/2 pounds ground beef * 1 medium onion, chopped * 1 can (10-3/4 ounces) condensed cream of mushroom soup, undiluted * 1 jar (4-1/2 ounces) sliced mushrooms * 3 tablespoons soy sauce * 2 tablespoons brown sugar * 1-1/2 cups cooked rice * 1 can (8 ounces) sliced water chestnuts, drained * 1 large pie pumpkin (8 to 9 pounds) * Vegetable oil
Directions:
* In a large skillet, cook beef and onion over medium heat until meat is no longer pink; drain. Add the soup, mushrooms, soy sauce and brown sugar. Simmer, uncovered, for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in the rice and water chestnuts.
* Wash pumpkin; cut a 6-in. circle around stem. Remove top and set aside. Discard seeds and loose fibers from the inside. Spoon beef mixture into pumpkin; replace top.
* Place in a greased 15-in. x 10-in. x 1-in. baking pan. Rub oil over outside of pumpkin. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 1-1/2 hours or until pumpkin is tender. Scoop out some pumpkin with each serving of beef mixture. Yield: 6 servings.

The real secret is NOT to knead the dough for more than a count of 30. If you do, they lose their ability to rise up and be tender.
.....and not to over-stir. The dough should be a bit lumpy.
