Hi, here is our 4 generations old delicious family recipe for "Tocino del cielo", which in English means something like "Heaven's bacon". No idea why it is so called.

For the "tocino" mix:
12 egg yolks
1 whole egg
300 grams sugar (10.5 oz)
3/4 cup water

For the caramel:
100 grams sugar (3.5 oz)

Syrup: In a pot add sugar and water and boil at medium heat for 20 minutes. Set syrup aside and let cool until warm.
In a bowl barely mix egg yolks and egg. Do not beat! Avoid incorporating any air into the mixture!
Once syrup is warm pour very slowly over the egg mix, barely stirring to mix (remember, no air into the mixture!).
Caramelize sugar and coat inside of a bundt type cake pan.
Once the caramel has cooled add the egg mixture very slowly into the pan.
Cover the top of pan with aluminum foil. Set in a double boiler pan with water already boiling (boiling water of double boiler has to cover at least 2/3 of the bundt pan) and simmer for 45 minutes, or until mixture is barely set. Let cool and refrigerate at least for 1 hour before serving. To loosen from the pan it might be necessary to barely heat the pan over a burner flame, to slightly melt the caramel coat.

I hope you enjoy it!

Emilio

HMMM.

I wonder if we ever go metric if we will continue recipes in (standard) "cups" and "spoons" or if we will go to weight.

I acutally bought a small food scale for just such purposes, [meaning imported recipes stated in weight].

Things like "with 100 grams of flour..." dont really mean much to me in guess-timating a quantity.


Greek recipes are the BEST for being vague.
Take a handful of flour...
a demi-tasse cup of olive oil
a litle spoon of sugar.. (ER Euro teaspoons are MUCH smaller than American.)

Combine in a medium sized baking tin (pan)--
Waht size is that?

We use rectangular oven pans becuse our ovens are rectangular (30x24 inches [75 x 60 cm]) or (20x24 inches [50x60 cm]). Your ovens onthe other side of the pond are square (24x24 [60x60cm]). So geuss what, baking pans there in Greece at least are ROUND generally, despite what is supplied with the oven.


you get the point

This is a very good Chicken recipe I got from an old Galloping Gorurmet cook book. I would think if you can not eat nuts that omitting them would be OK and the recipe would still be tasty

Kalach or kolach

Filled Long Roll Butter Recipe
(Kalach)

Ingredients: 1 lb. Butter or margarine
8 cups Regular flour
¾ cup Sugar
6 Egg yolks
2 cups luke warm milk
1 cake of fresh yeast (not powdered)

Yield: Ten rolls, approximately 10” long

Instructions for Mixing:

1. Heat ½ cup milk to lukewarm, break up yeast and sprinkle over heated milk, also sprinkle ½ tsp sugar over it when dissolved. Put aside.

2. Sift 8 cups of flour into large bowl; blend in 1 lb of butter breaking up into small fine pellets. Add sugar and blend well. Then add the 6 egg yolks, 1-½ cups of the lukewarm milk, and then the yeast mixture you set aside.

3. Blend dough thoroughly, approximately 8 to 10 min until dough is very soft texture and molds into a ball. If the dough is too soft, you may have to add ½ to 1 cup more of flour.

4. Place the dough in a large bowl; cover it with plastic wrap of aluminum foil and place in refrigerator for not less than three hours or overnight.

5. Before you prepare the fillings, take the dough out of the refrigerator and leave at room temperature for at least ½ hour. Then cut in ten parts.

6. Roll out each part to about 10” in diameter and fill with either nut, poppyseed, jams, etc.

7. Place on ungreased cookie sheet, cover and let stay at room temperature for at least ¾ to 1 hour, until they raise nicely.

8. Just before placing in oven, brush tops and sides well with well-beaten whole egg that has a little milk added to it.

9. Bake at 350 oven, first on lower shelf for 15 min. then move to middle shelf of oven and bake 15 to 20 min. more, until golden brown.

10. Immediately after removing from oven, brush tops of each roll with melted butter. This keeps the cakes moist.


For the walnut filling I grind 2 lb. of walnuts, add 1 stick of melted, butter, cinnamon to taste, regular sugar and brown sugar and honey to taste. Also add some warm milk to thin down to spreading consistency. For the poppyseed and prune filling, I used the Solo brand.
These cakes freeze very well if you wrap in foil, and then in a freezer bag. When needed, just take out of plastic, leave wrapped in foil, and warm in a 250-300 degree oven. These cakes have tasted very well after being frozen from 6 months to a year in the deep freeze.


Now this is a little more work, but worth it. This is a Polish/Slovak recipe.

Since I am Polish, it is one of my favorites.

Enjoy

PS. You can use a mixer with dough hooks if desired. I use my Kitchenaid.
