Is there another word/established thing for a "savory frosting"? I'm thinking something like whipping heavy cream+onion/garlic powder as a meat topping.

Why the gently caress are restaurant websites the most likely sort of websites to have loving music built in to them? I find it extremely annoying to be assaulted by lovely music every time I want to look at a menu of a new restaurant.

The French will switch to English in a heartbeat rather than hear their already twirly little Roccocco language being mangled further. Actually being able to carry out a conversation in French with a Frenchman means you're speaking near-perfect French.

A proper sauce Béarnaise is almost as thick as mayonnaise, does this qualify?

If I had the time, I'd make all of these and post a thread about Going Deutch. However, I'm lazy/busy. Here are the requested Whoopie Pie and Shoofly Pie recipes straight from Ma's handwritten cookbook. Use your powers for good and not evil, my friends.

Now, please keep in mind that the Pennsylvania Dutch are very communal. You don't cook dinner for 2 people or for 4 people. You cook for an entire neighborhood. As such, the final yield on these recipes can be pretty large. Also, these recipes are transcribed directly from Mom's book, and there's not a lot of technique in these. I'll do my best to answer any questions, but its been quite a while since I've watched these being made. Any of my notes will be in italics

Whoopie Pies
For the filling:
2 egg whites, beaten stiff
2 T milk or cream
1 t vanilla
1 lb powdered sugar
1 1/2 c Crisco or butter
pinch of salt

For the cake:
2 c sugar 384 g
1 c lard 110 g
2 eggs
2 t vanilla
1/2 t salt
1 c thick sour milk
4 c flour 480g
2 t soda
1 c cocoa 80g
1 c boiling water

Cream together sugar, salt, lard, vanilla and eggs. Add flour alternately with sour milk. Add slightly more flour if not thick. Put soda and cocoa on top of dough. Pour boiling water over top and mix well. Drop by teaspoonfulls and bake at 400 degrees Bake for 7-9 minutes. Allow to cool completely and then spread filling between cakes.


Shoofly Pie
For the syrup
3 c molasses
1 1/2 c brown sugar
6 eggs
3 c boiling water
2 tsp soda

For the crumbs
6 c flour
2 1/4 c brown sugar

Yeah I agree completely. My personal ground rule is just not to go to any restaurants with music on their website - works out pretty well. I've yet to have seen a restaurant that had music on its site that was just so enticing I couldn't miss it...

I have a rifle and a frying pan and I know how to use them
Spent my weekend with the boys blowing poo poo up with firearms all day and drinking all night.

Food was so-so, but if you think of it as hunting camp without the hunting, it was passable. Pulled BBQ pork sandwiches, home-made chili to slather on natural casing hot dogs, deviled eggs, cheese and crackers, coleslaw and potato salad. A few home made baked goods as well.


Got to shoot the FN SCAR 17 Heavy. That thing is authoritative when it booms out 20 rounds of 7.62 NATO in a row. Too bad the price is so prohibitively high.

Thanks! Any idea what the point of the boiling water and (i assume baking) soda part at the end is for?

Also, any insight on the filling process would be appreciated. Maybe creme everything but the whites together, then add the whites like you would to a mousse (in thirds)?

I think the boiling water is meant to dissolve the cocoa powder and to partially melt the fats. Why the baking soda is incorporated at the end, I have no idea.
Two possibilities I can think of. 1) That's the way it was always done. 2) by pouring it on top and then adding the boiling water, you're starting the leavening process at the last minute, and achieving a specific texture that way.

As far as the filling goes, I don't think you need to be that careful with them. My recollection of the filling is not that it is light and airy, but more dense. The egg whites are there more to dry things out than add airiness I think.

You can buy pasteurized egg whites at the grocery store. My wife uses them in her icings. Look for egg beaters 100% whites. Read the label, as they have one that is 99% whites and 1% garlic powder.

Eh, I already have meringue powder. I've also pasteurized my own eggs before, so I have that option as well.

I love that. Because people are obviously too lazy to add the garlic powder themselves.

Other than that, pasteurized whites and yolks rule my world. So convenient.
