With a steamer (maybe a strainer?) over 2″ boiling water, place about 1 pound of fresh cauliflower florets. Cover with lid.
Steam for 8 minutes, or until knife pierces easily.
Toss with 1 tbsp lemon zest, 2 tbsp lemon juice, and 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes.
Salt and pepper, serve warm or room temp.
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 small onion minced
1 garlic clove minced
1 cup basmati (or white) rice
1 tablespoon lemon juice
Zest from 1 lemon
2 cups chicken broth
In a medium skillet (yes, skillet, fish will later be added) heat butter over medium heat, add in onion and garlic cook and stir until softened. Stir in rice and cook for another minute, then add in lemon juice, lemon zest, and water, bring to a boil then cover and simmer for about 13 minutes.
8 oz Cream Cheese
6 C mashed potatoes
1 t salt
?? C onion, finely chopped and cooked until tender but not colored
?? C butter or margarine
1 C Sour Cream
?? t garlic powder
Mix all together. Bake at 350 in buttered shallow pan until lightly
browned, just yellowing in spots and tanning edges 40 ???50 minutes. More
brown is
better than less. A shallow dish is best. Like a cake pan. You don???t want a
thick layer. The cheese need to cook not just warm up.
May be frozen in freezer bag. Thaw and dump in pan. It will be watery. Do
not pour off the liquid- it will go back into the potatoes.
I have used fresh garlic, dried onion, etc. The recipe is very forgiving
in quantities.

Initially from the Joy of Cooking.
Combine
1.5 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
3/4 teaspoon salt
pinch of ground nutmeg
Beat together in a seperate bowl
2 large eggs
1/2 cup water or milk
Add to the flour mixture. Beat with a wooden spoon.
Bring 6 cups of salted water or broth to a boil. In my opinion this
should be 4″ of liquid rather than absolute measure.
Force the batter through a spatzle machine (or potato ricer) into
boiling liquid. Wait until all the bits float to the top, then remove
with a strainer.
I then like to let a small amount at a time dry in a colander.
Possible use:
After 5+ minutes of drying, lightly fry in butter with a splash of mustard.
