Krostata Recipe

Krostata A wonderful tart to make when you have two pounds of fruit (pitted, peeled if necessary, and sliced) Preheat oven to 400 degrees. 3/4 c. GF flour 3/4 c. GF starch 1 T. brown sugar (you'll need almost 1/2 c. by the end of the recipe) 2 shakes salt Sift these by mixing with a fork energetically add 3/4 c. vegetable shortening and cut it into the flour/starch mix for about 7 seconds, ensuring even distribution, then add 1/3 c. ice water, mix, but not too much, chunks of shortening are still okay Roll it out of the bowl and onto your counter top. Shape the dough into a flat circle. Slide the flattened and shaped dough into a freezer bag, or wrap with plastic wrap and chill for an hour. Mix your two pounds of fruit: plums, apples, pears, cherries, berries, peaches, apricots, you name it, or try your favorite combinations--I just never use citrus or pineapple--and add 1/4 c. brown sugar 1 Tablespoon each of lemon juice and cornstarch. Grab the dough and roll it...

Hummus

Hummus We pile everything into a blender and puree until smooth. No one likes texture in their hummus around here. 1 can drained and rinsed chickpeas, or garbanzo beans 2 T. olive oil (one tablespoon is fine, but my kids like it more with two) 3 liberal shakes of sea salt (likely 1/2 teaspoon, but this is our junk food so we imbibe) 2 cloves minced garlic, or equivalent in garlic powder or any prepared garlic, puree, minced or chopped in a jar, etc. That's basic hummus. We add other items to taste. About 2 tablespoons of salsa, or just tomato sauce or diced tomatoes; 1/2 teaspoon cumin, or your favorite herb; more garlic; hot sauce to taste...2 tablespoons black olives are wonderful, too. Experiment and figure about 2 tablespoons for any food added to the mix and a 1/2 teaspoon for any seasoning mixed into it--except peppers, unless that's how you roll. Fantastic on any chip or cracker.
