Guest guest Posted January 7, 2003 Report Share Posted January 7, 2003 RE: Re: [ ] AIH Treatments?? Dear Anita, This recipe is so easy, and fun too. I made it pretty fast and it was good too! The whole house smelled nice! First make your pastry shell: 2 cups flour 1 egg yolk 1/2 tsp salt 2 tsp sugar 1 1/3 sticks butter 3 Tbsp cold water First sift 2 cups flour with 1/2 tsp salt into a bowl. Chop 1 1/3 sticks of butter into small pieces and mix into the flour with your fingers. Keep mixing until the mixture looks like crumbs. Make a well in the center of the mixture and add 1 egg yolk, 2 teaspoons sugar, and 3 tablespoons cold water. Stir to combine all the ingredients and knead lightly to form a smooth dough. Wrap the dough in wax paper or plastic and put in the fridge for 1/2 hour. Roll the dough out on a floured board until it's 1/8 inch thick. Then put in your 9 " pie pan. Bake the shell " blind " That means to bake without the filling. To prevent the shell from shrinking, line it with foil then fill with rice or dried beans. Put the shell in a 400 degree preheated oven for 10 minutes and then turn the heat down to 275. Continue baking for 15 minutes longer. Remove the foil about halfway through the baking. Now for the filling: 1/2 stick butter 1 9 " pie shell baked- 1/4 cup all purpose flour 1/2 pt whipping cream 2 cups milk 2 Tbsp confectioners sugar 2 egg yolks beaten 2 Tbsp brandy (too small of an amount to 1 cup sugar worry about harming our livers, I think, 1 Tbsp pure vanilla extract unless you eat the whole pie yourself) Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter in a heavy skillet over low heat. Stir in the flour. Cook, stirring for about 3 minutes. Slowly add the milk, stir and bring to a boil. Let it simmer over the low heat. Melt the remaining butter in another heavy pot or skillet, add the sugar and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar turns a light brown. Pour into the hot flour sauce and continue to stir over the low heat until the mixture is smooth. Remove from the heat and stir in the beaten egg yolks and vanilla. If there are lumps, pour through a strainer. Let the mixture cool, then pour in the baked pastry shell. Pour the whipping cream into a bowl and whip until it peaks. Mix in the confectioners sugar and the brandy. Top the pie with the cream and chill until it's ready to serve! This book also has a recipe for Roast Possum with Stuffing, if you're interested I'll send it too. I personally haven't tried it myself!

Guest guest Posted January 7, 2003 Report Share Posted January 7, 2003 Dear Jan, Use 1/4 lb of butter for the recipe. Confectioners sugar is fluffy white sugar. It's the kind that goes up your nose when you open the bag! Do not use granulated for sure. I don't know what caster or icing sugar is. Sounds interesting! Are any of them very fluffy, white? Whichever one is, use that one. Happy baking! P.S. Anyone want that " Possum with Stuffing " recipe? Just thought I'd ask!

Guest guest Posted January 7, 2003 Report Share Posted January 7, 2003 - Ive got plenty of possums in the garden and, at night on the roof. If I had a shotgun Id lean out of the window and shoot them all. All our hunters in the bush live off possum stew but they are so cute and cuddly with their big brown eyes, pretty nasty claws tho.. I guess you must have possums in your country? Fluffy white sugar sounds like our 'icing' sugar. Thaanks.

Guest guest Posted January 8, 2003 Report Share Posted January 8, 2003 Anita: No apology necessary with me. I love to hear about other things people are interested in. I am wondering how long after my mom died can you connect with her? It has been only since December 30th. I am a true believer in the collective consciousness and that some of us are fortunate enough to be able to tap into it. It might soften your image if you didn't call yourself " the witch " , although if that is what you prefer, people should learn to deal with it. I appreciate your input. Marty in Michigan > hi , i have just read all the mail and there doesnt seem to be a copy of one i sent earlier. just in case it didnt get through i will send it again. > I wish to apologise for any upset i have caused with the readings. i did not join the group with any intention of even mentioning the work i do. but i was asked how i got the nickname,,the witch,, i told the truth. i am sorry if i have offended anyone, but the readings apart, it is nice to chat to others about things other than liver disease. anyway, sorry again, and if anyone still wants a reading please feel free to email me at anita@c... and i will be happy to oblige. i love the work anyway. > anita > > > > From: " lisa m skowron " <lsmaxfax@s...> > > Date: Wed 08/Jan/2003 00:19 GMT > > < > > > Subject: RE: FW: Re: [ ] " off topic " Butterscotch Pie! > > > > Dear Anita, > > > > Oh dear, sorry! > > > > I had to take one out of the fridge and look, ha! > > > > It is butter that is about 4 inches long, contains 8 tablespoons.

Guest guest Posted January 8, 2003 Report Share Posted January 8, 2003 Hi marty, thankyou for your messagem it has helped me feel better. i am feeling rather down about it all, i never meant for all this to happen. it is still very early days for your mum, but anythings possible. if you would like me to try and contact her just let me know at anita@... i feel your mum was one for speaking her mind, regardless of the consequences, but in a nice, gentle way. theres alot i am feeling about you mum, but perhaps it would be better sent to a personal email address as sometimes very personal things are mentioned that you might want to keep to yourself. by the way, when i have finished a reading on the pc i always erase it. it is totally confidental. love and hugs anita by the way, who is the sister figure? > > From: " msaire2003 <msaire@...> " <msaire@...> > Date: Thu 09/Jan/2003 02:42 GMT > > Subject: FW: Re: [ ] " off topic " Butterscotch Pie! > > Anita: > No apology necessary with me.
