RECIPES:
SOUR KRAUT:
I don't follow a recipe for this, but simply combine sour kraut and sausage (I brown the sausage first) in a crockpot. I add salt, pepper, and apple slices. Cover and cook on low for 6 hours or on high for 3. This is delicious with mashed potatoes and gravy.
BAKED POTATO SOUP (our favorite!)
4 - 5 large potatoes, cubed and cooked
2/3 cup butter
2/3 cup flour
1 3/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper (white or black)
dash of cayenne pepper
6 cups milk
1 cup sour cream
1/4 cup thinly sliced green onions
10 bacon strips, cooked and crumbled
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
In a large saucepan melt butter. Add flour and seasonings and stir until smooth.Gradually add milk. Bring to a boil and keep stirring until the mixture thickens. Remove from heat and add sour cream. Stir. Add potatoes and onions. Garnish with bacon and cheese. (or stir in)
HONEY BUTTER ROLLS:
2 1/4 teaspoon yeast
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup warm milk
2 tablespoons honey
3 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
4 tablespoons butter, softened
1 egg
In a bowl of a stand mixer, combine yeast salt, warm milk and honey. Let the mixture set for two to three minutes until light and fluffy. add the eg,g butter, and flour mix until the flour is completely incorporated about four to 5 minutes. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and set in a room temperature for 15 minutes or up to a few hours at room temperature.
HONEY BUTTER:
6 tablespoons butter, melted
1 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons honey
Honey butter: Combine butter, salt, and honey together in a small bowl.
Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease a 9 by 13 inch baking dish. Lightly dust your work surface with flour. Divide your dough in half. Roll each half to a 12 inch square, about 1/4 inch thick. Brush each square with honey butter, saving any leftover butter for serving. Cut each square of dough into 6 strips. Roll each strip into a coil and arrange seam side down in baking dish.
Cover dish and let rolls rise for about 30 minutes until they're puffy. Alternatively, you can let the rolls sit in the fridge overnight.
Bake rolls for 18 to 25 minutes or until golden brown. Remove them from oven and brush with remaining honey butter. If you wish, you can top them with flaky sea salt.
