Sweet Potatoes Candied with Cider

It’s count down time to Thanksgiving as we all know. It’s also that time of year when the great Yam vs. Sweet Potato debate surfaces once again as folks scurry to candy, bake, broil, puree and mash these spuds into every side dish known to man. So, lets put the debate to rest once and for all, shall we?

Even if the grocery store has a sign that says “Yams” over something that looks like what you see on the left below, it is not a Yam, it is a sweet potato. Will the real Yam please stand up? Ah, yes, its the fellow on the right.

Here is more information then you ever wanted to know from WiseGeek.com about how Sweet Potatoes and what we know as “Yams” came to be. “The issue with yams, sweet potatoes, and potatoes began when sweet potatoes were first brought to Europe, and called potatoes. When true potatoes entered Europe, Europeans realized that they were entirely different plants, and they created a retronym, “sweet potato” to describe the plants they previously called potatoes. The trend of referring to some sweet potatoes as “yams” emerged in the American South, where growers started referring to soft-fleshed sweet potatoes as yams to differentiate them from the firmer, less sweet varieties grown in the North.”

It is really not our fault that we are so confused by all this. The U.S. Department of Agriculture requires that the label “yam” always be accompanied by “sweetpotato.” So even they can’t make up their minds. Shocking, I know. I think it is fair to say that most of us have never even tasted a real Yam which are native to Africa and Asia. I know I never have. It seems we have adopted the name in this country and it is not going away any time soon. And so be it. It’s just a pet peeve of mine, so now I feel so much better. Thank you for allowing me to get up on my big box of Sweet Potatoes and lecture you.

So call them what you will, Yam or Sweet Potato, they’re still delicious. And, speaking of delicious, here is a great recipe from Delicious Orchards just in time for the holidays.

This is a healthy dish with an outrageously tasty sauce. Serve over brown rice or whole wheat pasta and enjoy seconds.

This is an original Food Network recipe. Click the link to read the reviews.

Ingredients

  • 8 bone-in skinless chicken thighs (about 3 pounds)
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • Pinch red pepper flakes
  • 1 tablespoon tomato paste
  • 1/2 cup dry red wine
  • 1 (15-ounce) can cannellini or Great Northern beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 (14-ounce) can chopped tomatoes
  • 2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
  • 1 teaspoon Italian herb mix
  • 1 head escarole (about 1 pound), coarsely chopped
  • 1/3 cup grated pecorino (about 1-ounce)

Directions

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.

Season the chicken with salt and pepper. Heat the oil in a large, deep ovenproof skillet over medium heat. Lay the chicken skinned-side down in the skillet, and brown, in batches if needed, over medium-high heat, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer the chicken to a platter.

Reduce the heat to medium, add the onion, garlic, and red pepper flakes and cook until slightly soft, about 7 minutes. Stir in the tomato paste and cook until brick red, about 1 minute. Add the wine and use a wooden spoon to scrape up any brown bits that cling to the pan. Add the beans, tomatoes, chicken broth, and Italian herbs and bring to a boil. Return the chicken along with any collected juices to the pan. Transfer to the oven and bake, uncovered, until the chicken is cooked through, tender and lightly browned, about 25 minutes.

Transfer the chicken to a platter. Return the pan to the stovetop over medium heat, stir in the escarole and cook until the greens wilt, about 4 minutes. Stir in the cheese, and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Divide the chicken among 4 plates. Spoon the sauce over the chicken and serve.

Happy Halloween and a Brandied Pear Crisp

Happy Halloween Everyone,

It’s funny how people either love Halloween or hate it. I personally love it. I’ve been a theater geek since I was a little girl, so give me the opportunity to dress in costume and I’m all over it. I also had a mother who could sew just about anything and made some pretty fabulous costumes for me when I was a kid.

The picture on the left was taken two years ago at a annual Halloween party put on by our friends, Jason and Nancy. I was a Black Widow Spider and Peter was a Fly. My kids came up with the idea of wrapping him in a web, which I loved. The only downside was he kept sticking to everyone he brushed up against.

I had my chance this past weekend to express my inner Goddess as you can see below.

I’m getting an early start to the day here. I’ve got nerd pants to hem for my son and a pork shoulder to get in the crock pot for Pulled Pork later tonight. The kids and I made “Pigeon Poop” (don’t ask) the other day for their class parties. So, we’re ready to get on with the festivities.

Here’s another gorgeous picture and recipe from Delicious Orchards. I’m not in charge of desert tonight, but if I was, this is a perfect fall dish. Enjoy.


Brandied Pear Crisp

1 1/2 cups old fashioned rolled oats
1/4 cup flour
1/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon grated nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup brandy
1/2 cup unsalted butter, cut into bits
2 pounds firm-ripe pears, peeled, cored and sliced thin
1 tablespoon lemon juice
2 tablespoon granulated sugar
Vanilla ice cream as an accompaniment (optional)

In a bowl blend together the oats, flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, salt, butter, and 2 tablespoons of the brandy.

In another bowl toss the pears with the remaining 2 tablespoons brandy, lemon juice and the granulated sugar. Turn the mixture into a well buttered shallow 14 by 12 inch gratin dish.

Spread the oat mixture evenly over the pears. Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 45 minutes or until the pears are tender and the topping is crisp. Serve the dessert with ice cream if desired.

Makes 6 servings.

Chicken, Butternut Squash and Cabbage Soup

Deborah Smith, Executive Editor

Here’s a great recipe for a chilly Hallow’s Eve. In my little town by the shore, we go all out on Halloween. There is one street in particular that looks like Mardi gras, sans the drunk naked people. (We save that for home. 😉

Seriously, this street is so well known (and has been for decades) that kids from other towns get dropped off to trick or treat. My best friend lives at one end of this craziness, so her house is command central. Everyone brings a dish, and while the kids divvy up their loot, the grownups enjoy a smorgasbord of chili, soups, wings, and this year I’m making pulled pork. Some of you may have the same kind of get-together in your neighborhood, or maybe you just like something simple on the stove after your door to door with the kiddies. This soup is all that. The Butternut squash gives it the appropriate color of the day and the soup is both healthy and hearty.

This is a basic chicken soup recipe with bite-sized pieces of butternut squash and about one quarter of a head of cabbage chopped into bite-sized pieces. If you have a favorite way to make chicken soup, by all means, have it your way and then in the last half hour of cooking, add the squash and cabbage.

For those of you who need a chicken soup recipe, here’s how I do it.

INGREDIENTS

FOR THE BROTH
Left over chicken carcass, picked clean of meat
1 yellow onion, roughly chopped
2 stalks of celery, roughly cut
2 carrots, roughly chopped
2 bay leaves
1 chicken boullion cube
salt and pepper to taste

Toss everything into a large soup pot and fill with tap water up 2/3 the way up the chicken. Bring to a boil on Med/High heat then turn down to simmer, uncovered, for a few hours. Remove from heat and let stand until cool enough to pour through a strainer into a second soup pot or large heat resistant bowl.

Return the broth to the stove.

SOUP INGREDIENTS

2 Frozen or fresh boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 small onion, or 1/2 large onion, chopped
2 Celery stalks, sliced fine
2 Carrots, sliced fine
2 cups Butternut Squash cut into bite-size pieces
1/4 Head of Cabbage, cut into bite-sized pieces
A pinch or two of poultry seasoning
Salt and Pepper to taste

Place chicken breasts whole into broth. (If you have the meat from the whole chicken saved, use that and omit the chicken breasts.) I always end up with a chicken picked clean from previous meals. Do not cook the carcass with meat on it, however. The meat loses all its flavor into the broth. Pick the meat before boiling and add later.

Add onion, celery and carrot and bring to a simmer. Add poultry seasoning. Cook until vegetables are tender and chicken is cooked through. Remove chicken and shred. Place back in soup with Butternut Squash and Cabbage. Allow to cook for another half hour or until squash is tender. Salt and pepper to taste, and enjoy.

I hope you like this recipe. If you have any recipe recommendations for Halloween, please send them in or leave a comment with your favorite Fall meal. Happy Halloween!!

Wat-Aah, Bottled Water with Attitude?

Deborah Smith, Executive Editor

As you can see, I chose two very skeptical young men to test out the latest in bottled water called Wat-Aah. (As you can also see, we’re a family of hams.)

So, what the heck is Wat-Aah anyway? Well, according to the company literature “Wat-Aah aims to help combat childhood and teen obesity by offering a healthy drink alternative, with attitude, not sugar.” Attitude works well in our house. (We are from Jersey after all.)

Wat-Aah is not just water, it comes in 4 varieties targeting key elements of the healthy body: Bones, Brain, Energy and Body. Water for Bones has added calcium. Brain has added electrolytes. Energy has added electrolytes and oxygen for increased metabolic function. And Body, well, is actually just plain old water in a cool bottle.

When the box arrived from Let Water Be Water, LLC, my kids were instantly excited by the look of the bottles and wanted to try it immediately. They did expect the water to have different flavors but got over it quickly. I found the design of the bottles did exactly what the product aims to do, it targets kids and motivates them to choose the water over other sugar laden drinks. The boys had two friends over who also asked for the Wat-Aah water.

So, there you have it. We all know we’re supposed to be drinking more water. Geez, I got a lecture from my personal trainer just the other day on this very topic. Getting the kids to choose water over other sugary drinks is another story. Wat-Aah’s goal is a noble one and I like noble causes.

Right now, you can purchase Wat-Aah in Whole Foods stores and other fine retail outlets in New York City and at www.drinkwataah.com. Wat-Aah is pouring into to Jersey as we speak, so be on the look out for this guy in stores near you.

Cooking with a Jersey Girl, Book Review and Recipe

Deborah Smith, Executive Editor

Yesterday was my favorite kind of day. I spent most of it in my kitchen cooking up a pot of marinara sauce and then putting together this scrumptious Eggplant Parmesan from Cooking with a Jersey Girl by Joyce Ann Staples. Now, you know the minute I saw the title I would be asking the Author to let me review her book. How could I resist?

It’s only a little over 100 pages, but Cooking with a Jersey Girl is filled with recipes handed down through Joyce Ann’s large Italian family. Everyone from her Mother, Grandmother, Aunt’s and Uncles have helped the author compile all her family’s favorites.

The Author in her own words, “My purpose in telling these stories is that I feel all this will be gone with my generation. My daughters do not have the memories I have of their great grandparents. I feel I keep their memory alive in every recipe, every story, and every delicious bite.”

As many of my readers know, I am profoundly envious of people who have recipe rich family backgrounds. I live vicariously through stories of these families and love to learn from them as much as possible. So, with this in mind, I dove into Joyce Anne’s book and plucked out “Frank’s Eggplant Parmesan.”

The one surprise in this recipe is the Swiss Cheese. I’ve never used Swiss in Eggplant Parm. Oh, wait, I take it back, that’s not the only surprise, it also calls for putting Parmesan in the eggs before dunking the eggplant.
This was a new one for me also.

You can tell when reading the recipes that Joyce Ann knows her way around the kitchen. This sometimes results in the omission of detailed instruction that the novice cook might need like how thick to cut the eggplant slices. It also doesn’t say if she salts and sweats the eggplant to remove the bitterness. I always do this, so I did. And lastly, the recipe calls for “a handful of mozzarella and Parmesan cheese.” Since the recipe is from Frank, a male, I figured I’d better use two handfuls.

This dish was delicious and I am so looking forward to trying many more of the Author’s family gems. I’ve already bought the head of cauliflower to make the “Cauliflower with Carmelized Onions.”

I should also mention that Ms. Staples’ “Penne, Pesto, Tomatoes and Gorgonzola” recipe was just selected as a winning entry in a contest put on by Jersey 101.5’s Big Joe Henry Show. So, congratulations JoyceAnn. I will be making this one for sure.

Frank’s Eggplant Parmesan
1 – 2 firm eggplants, peeled and sliced lengthwise
2 cups seasoned breadcrumbs
4 eggs, beaten
1/2 cup milk
1 cup grated Parmesan or Romano cheese
2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
Salt and pepper to taste
1 cup olive oil
1 pound swiss cheese
1 pound mozzarella, shredded or thinly sliced
2 cups grated Parmesan or Romano cheese
1 -2 quarts marinara sauce

Heat oil in large skillet. Beat eggs and milk together, add cheese. To breadcrumbs, add dry seasonings, salt, and pepper. Dip eggplant slices in egg mixture, then into breadcrumbs, placing them carefully (a few at a time) into the hot oil. Fry until golden or both sides and tender. Drain on paper towels. When all eggplant has been cooked, start assembling by spooning a ladle of sauce into bottom of 13 x 9 inch baking pan. Place first layer of eggplant on the sauce. Sprinkle with a handful of mozzarella, a handful of grated cheese, and a single layer of Swiss cheese. Spoon sauce over top and start the layering again until all the eggplant has been used. Top with Swiss cheese and sauce. Bake for 1 hour at 325 degrees or until bubbly and hot. Cool for 10 minutes before serving.

Market in the Middle, Asbury Park

Well, as my friend, Dani, said on Friday night, “It was bound to happen.” And, I guess she’s right. As you probably know, when I do a restaurant review there’s no one ponying up for the bill but me. (Actually, Peter does most of the ponying.) So, I try to make my dining choices good ones. Consequently, I am usually writing glowing reviews. Unfortunately, this is not one of them and I actually feel bad that I have to do this.

Friday night was my first visit to Market in the Middle in Asbury Park. I had heard a lot of great things about the restaurant and felt it was about time we paid them a visit. It’s located right next door to one of our favorite places, The Brick Wall. Market in the Middle gets its name from the, yes, you guessed it, market in the middle as you can see in the picture. One side of the restaurant is a deli, the other side a bar and restaurant. Tables bridge the two sides in the back.

So, first impressions were good. Cute place, friendly staff.
Actually, the menu (which came on a clipboard) sounded really fabulous. I was immediately drawn to the Chicken Liver and Bacon Fritters with Balsamic Onions and Roasted Shallot Cream Sauce. Oh so decadent, I had to try them. In addition we ordered the Grilled Apple Sausage with French Green Lentil Salad and Spicy Mustard Sauce and the Quesadilla with Pepperoni. All three appetizers were disappointing. The fritters were dry and tasteless. There were only four fritters and we left some on the plate. Actually, we didn’t finish any of the appetizers.

When ordering the entrees, Dani wanted to order the Grilled Rib Eye with Sun Dried Tomato Basil smashed potatoes. She was told they were all out of the steak. This was at 7:30pm on a Friday night.

Peter and Dani opted for the Hoison BBQ Baby Back Ribs with sweet potato fries and curry mayonnaise. I ordered the Spaghetti Squash Pasta with spiced pumpkin sauce and apple chicken sausage. (See left photo) And finally, our last companion ordered the Braised Pork Shank over Barley Risotto, Cabbage, and Honey Bourbon Apple Jus. It all sounds wonderful doesn’t it? Well, some of it was pretty good. My spaghetti squash was tasty, loved the sauce. The sweet potato fries were killer. I could have eaten them all night. Unfortunately, the ribs were dry. I can only think they were cooked very early on in the day and sat around. Maybe I’m wrong, but they were very dry, none-the-less. The Braised pork shank was not cooked to perfection either but the sauce was tasty.

All in all, the food was disappointing. And I was so disappointed to be disappointed. I was really looking forward to a great meal. I know others have had great experiences there, so if you’re one of them, feel free to leave a comment. Were they just having an off night? Do they have a new chef? Did aliens invade and take over the kitchen? Please, solve this mystery for me.

My Birthday Present to Me, the results are in….

Deborah Smith, Executive Editor

Drum roll please……..

I know how Jersey Bites fans have been following my fitness quest with bated breath. Well, my

self imposed 30 day fitness challenge ends today with my 43rd birthday. The end result? I lost 7 pounds and 2 % body fat, yeah, I know, and my tan. I still have some more to lose (body fat that is) but have been told by my friends at Fitness Together after my evaluation today, that I must start drinking more water and eat another small meal before bed. I love this, I get told I need to eat more. I can manage that.

(Doesn’t this look like a cheesy Nutrisystem commercial? Sorry about that. I promise no air brushing took place. )

While what I lost this month is very motivating, what I gained is invaluable. I finally learned how and what to eat to effectively lose the fat and build muscle. This is a very powerful feeling. I now have the tools I need to really get the job done. After 30 days of very challenging workouts and eating 4 meals a day with carefully proportioned protein/carb/fat ratios, you can see the end result and it was done the proper way.

I was too embarrassed to show the whole picture of me in the bikini.

Oh, what the heck, here you go.

Look at me at 43.


It’s a great start and a great Birthday present to Me.

If you are located in Monmouth or Ocean County, give yourself a great next birthday and call my friends at Fitness Together. If you’re not local, they also offer nutritional counseling sessions by phone.

The Monday Motivational

Deborah Smith, Executive Editor

Well, it’s my last Monday Motivational before the big day. For those of you who are new to JerseyBites, I started a self imposed fitness challenge just a little under one month ago. The challenge is to get my 42 year old butt in shape for my 43rd birthday, which happens on Wednesday.

The good news is, I’ve come a long way in just 30 days. Although, this past week almost sent me over the edge. My personal trainer, Susan, has me on a very strict diet to ensure that I really look my very best on the big day. The diet does not allow any added salt or spices to my meals. I am only allowed chicken or fish, nothing on them. Yes, disgusting I know. How does a foodie live like this you might ask? Not very cheerfully, let’s just put it that way. I’m dreaming a lot about my birthday dinner. Last night the kids and my boyfriend had Italian takeout. I had plain chicken, steamed broccoli with lemon juice and brown rice. Mmmmm, mmmmm, good.

But, this morning, I looked in the mirror and said, hey old girl, not bad. I proceeded to have a brutal workout with Susan and another 29 year old trainer. Then 1 hour of cardio on the treadmill. Yes, I needed a nap after that, are you kidding me?

So tonight I don’t know what I’m eating. Can someone send in a recipe that uses nothing but steamed veggies, plain chicken and plain brown rice, and tastes good? Don’t worry, I’m not going to hold my breath. It’s only until Wednesday I keep telling myself.

All joking and crankiness aside, I can confidently say that after this month I will be able to continue to eat in a much better, more intelligent way after working with Susan at Fitness Together. I have changed my mindset about food and its purpose. Also, having a goal has really been motivating. I am going to continue to set goals for myself so you’ll probably be hearing about some new crazy stunt in the future.

Ok, so stay tuned later this week for my before and after pictures. (If I dare to put them up.) It was not fun looking at my before pictures. It’s easy to kid yourself in the mirror. The damn camera, not so much. We also have a review on a new bottle water on the market. Yes, I know, how do you review bottled water? You got me. And, I promise we’ll get back to cooking and great recipes. Please, if you would like to submit one of your favorites, email me. JerseyBites (at) gmail.com.
