Shrimp with Lobster Sauce Recipe
Serves 4 as a multi-course meal | Prep Time: 10 minutes | Cook Time: 15 minutes
Ingredients:
12 ounces raw large shrimp, shelled and deveined (ok, I'm a little lazy. I'd get the cooked shrimp)
Salt and sugar to taste (kosher salt and raw sugar)
2 tablespoons vegetable oil (I'd probably use olive oil)
1-inch piece ginger, peeled and thinly sliced ( I personally wouldn't add it (The Lil Chef is allergic) but ginger is extremely good for you so by all means...)
2 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
1 cup chicken broth (GF YF)
1/2 tablespoon Chinese cooking wine (Shaoxing wine) (check labels to make sure it suits your "food issue" needs. You can use Chinese Rice wine)
3/4 cup store-bought frozen vegetables (peas and carrots)
3 dashes of white pepper
1/2 tablespoon light soy sauce (GF Tamari)
1 tablespoon cornstarch
2 tablespoons water
1 egg white, lightly beaten
Method:
Lightly season the shrimp with salt and sugar to taste.
In a wok, heat up the oil on medium heat. When the oil is hot, add in the ginger and garlic. Stir-fry until aromatic, about 2 minutes.
Transfer the shrimp into the wok and stir-fry until half-cooked or surface turns opaque. Pour in the chicken broth and Chinese cooking wine. Let it boil.
Add the frozen vegetables and stir to combine. Add the white pepper, soy sauce, salt and sugar to taste.
Prepare the cornstarch mixture by adding the cornstarch and water, mix well. When the chicken broth is boiling, gently pour in the cornstarch mixture while stirring.
Bring it back to a boil, swirl the beaten egg and immediately stir 3 times with a pair of chopsticks. When the egg white begins to form into silken threads, quickly turn off the heat.
Dish out to serving plate. Best served with warm rice.

Hough Bakery - butter cookies

Hough Bakery By  Gail Greenberg   &   Diane Rolfe Hough Bakery was an integral  part of me and my family's lives, (most people in Cleveland for that matter) I was heartbroken when they closed. I have  always remembered the cookies and doughnuts from this magical bakery. Their products were like nothing I had ever had before (and it was extra  magical because I was so little/young) I have been searching for about 30 years for something similar - no luck... but, thank goodness there are a few recipes floating around the internet! Unfortunately  even with Archie's being open, my food afflictions will not allow  me to enjoy those old time favorites. Luckily, converting is what I do and that's what this site is about so I  will switch some things  around and see how it turns out! The recipe below is just ONE of my all time favorites, please enjoy! Memories of a signature blue-and-white, string-tied cake box filled with a streus...

I tasted this and my taste buds went crazy!!! I had her bring it as often as I could. Unfortunately I have never been to Johnny Mango (near Downtown Cleveland) myself. I have been craving this for about 6yrs and I am SOOOOO HAPPY that there is a recipe! I do still want to go to   Johnny Mango World Cafe & Bar but until then I will try to recreate it myself.
