Basic Rice Quick Bread

from _The Laurel's Kitchen Bread Book_
by Laurel Robertson w/ Carol Flinders and Bronwen Godfrey

Preheat oven to 350 F. Grease an 8" x 4" loaf pan.
Sift together rice flour, potato flour, cornstarch, baking powder, and salt.

If using butter, cream the honey and butter and beat in milk and eggs; if using oil, simply mix them all together, then combine the wet and dry ingredients quickly and turn into the greased pan.

Bake about 45 minutes or a little longer. Let cool ten minutes, then tip the loaf out of pan. Cool on rack for half and hour before cutting.

Note: Perhaps you can substitute white rice flour, but use less liquid.(Haven't tried it with white).

Also, rice flour does not have enough gluten to rise on its own when making yeasted bread. It will supposedly rise with an additive called methocel.

Chicken with Black Beans and Rice

Here is a great main dish recipe, that is easy and delicious!

In large soup pot, heat olive oil over medium heat; add onion and garlic.

Saute 10 minutes. Add a few teaspoons chicken broth if mixture becomes to dry. Add chicken broth, tomatoes, and spices. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer 10 minutes. Stir in chicken and beans, simmer 10 minutes.

Stir in rice and simmer 20 to 25 minutes. You may want to add more water or chicken broth if needed.

This is more like a main dish instead of a soup, but is great with a salad
and cornbread.

Mom's Potato Pancakes

Wash and peel potatoes. Peel onions. Cut both vegetables into large chunks. Grate some chunks of the potato, alternating with the onion using a food processor. Place colander over a pot or bowl which will catch the liquid drippings. Place the grated onion and potato mixture in the colander and let stand. Press down on the mixture to hasten the draining process every 5 minutes or so. Continue until the mixture no longer squishes when pressed (approximately 15 minutes). Note: the juice from the onion should prevent the potato from discoloring. However, don't worry if the potato does discolor. Taste is unaffected and somehow the right color returns during cooking.

Place the potato-onion mixture in a mixing bowl. Add all remaining ingredients except the cooking oil. Blend well.

Pour the liquid out of the bowl/pot which collected the water from the potatoes and onions draining step. At the bottom of the bowl, you will find a thick, starch paste. Scrape this paste out of the bowl and add to the potato-onion-egg etc. mixture.

Heat 1/2 inch depth of oil (or oil-butter mixture) in a skillet. Use about 2 tablespoons of potato mixture for each pancake. Drop into skillet and flatten with spatula. Fry pancakes about ten minutes total, turning once. The pancakes should be golden brown.

Continue to blend the ingredients in the bowl as you work through the total pancake mixture.

Serve immediately!!
