The History of Wine

Wines history dates back approximately 6000 BC. The regions of origin are thought to be Eurasia and Iran. Wine was discovered in Europe around 4500 BC in Bulgaria and Ancient Greece. Dionysus of Greek Mythology represents wine. Dionysus imbued ritual madness and ecstasy. He was adopted by the Romans and known as Bacchus. In classical Greece and Rome wine was a common. In Medieval Europe wine was necessary for the ceremony of Mass. In ancient Egypt wine was apart of ceremonial life. Wine is used today in religious ceremonies. Examples would be the Catholic Eucharist and the Jewish Kiddush.

An alcoholic beverage, wine is made from fermented grape juice. The fermentation is without added sugar, acids, enzymes or other ingredients. Wine is produced by fermenting crushed grapes with various yeasts. The sugar in the grapes are consumed by the yeast and converted into alcohol.  The type of wine being produced is determined by the type of grapes and yeast.

Other fruits can be fermented but the resulting wine is normally names after the fruit. They are known as fruit wines or country wines. An example would be apple wine or peach wine. There are wines fermented from starch-base materials. Such wines would be barley wine and rice wine (i.e. sake). History suggests that in 7000 BC grapes and rice were fermented in China.

Wine has a rich history dating back 6000 to 7000 BC. Wine is known as a ceremonial drink. The ceremonies differ from religion, holidays, special occasions or just relaxing and enjoying a good meal.

Delicious BLT Salad (a Twist on the Classic Blt Sandwich)

The Bacon Lettuce and Tomato sandwich, (BLT), has been an American classic for years and years. Except for the bacon and mayonnaise, which are high in fat, and the bread or toast, which are high in carbohydrates, the sandwich is basically a “salad between two slices of bread or toast”.If you already have a salad sandwich, then converting it to a salad should be a snap, and the advantage is lower carbohydrate because of eliminating the bread.

Italian Lemon Biscotti, a Twice Baked Cappuccino Accompaniment or “Anytime” Dessert

These delightful twice-baked cookies are thought to have originated in Prato, a Tuscan city on the Italian peninsula. The word biscotto (singular form of biscotti) originates from the Latin word “bis”, meaning twice and “coctum” or baked (which later became “cotto”, or cooked). The Roman Legions used them probably because they could be stored for long periods of time without degrading, thus were ideal ad “army food”

HOME COOKING: Denny’s Restaurant All-time Favorite Recipes You Can Do Home – Cheese Soup – Denny’s Chicken Fried Steak – New York Style Chee

DENNY’S RESTAURANT has gained a loyal following with mouth-watering items like their Belgian Waffle Platter, Veggie-Cheese Omelette, Country-Fried Steak & Eggs, Fabulous French Toast Platter, Grilled Chicken Breast Salad, Buffalo Chicken Strips, T-Bone Steak & Shrimp, Grilled Tilapia and Mushroom Swiss Burger.

Originally named Danny’s Donuts, Denny’s Restaurant went on to become one of our most popular family eateries.

In 1977, Denny’s introduced the Grand Slam Breakfast in Atlanta as a nod to Hank Aaron. It went on to become Denny’s most famous, and still-popular, breakfast.

Today, besides its famous pancakes, Denny’s is becoming renowned for its nutritious Breakfast items. Such as its Carb-Watch Ultimate Omelette: a three-egg omelette with sausage, bacon, green peppers, mushrooms, onions and diced tomatoes. Topped with shredded Cheddar cheese and served with tomato slices.

It serves many popular salads, including the Grilled Chicken Breast Salad – a seasoned, grilled chicken breast sliced and served on top of mixed greens with tomatoes, cucumbers, red onions and Cheddar cheese. Served with the dressing of your choice and dinner bread.

 

And then there’s Denny’s Steakhouse Strip & Shrimp, a new mouth-watering 8 oz. strip steak and six of our new lightly seasoned, golden-fried shrimp. Served with your choice of two sides and dinner bread.

 

 

 

 

 

>>> So if you want to prepare a delicious meal to impress family, friends or even a hot date – maybe someone you met on a romantic dating site – here are DENNY’s most popular recipes of all time…

*

–Denny’s Cheese Soup–

 

4 tablespoons butter or margarine

10 ounces cream of chicken soup

10 ounces cream of celery soup

1/2 soup can Kraft’s mayonnaise

1 jar Cheese Whiz – (8 oz)

1 can chicken broth – (14 oz)

Salt — to taste

Freshly-ground black pepper — to taste

 

Put butter, soups, mayonnaise and Cheez Whiz in 1 1/2-quart saucepan, stirring constantly over medium heat, until smooth. Stir in broth and season to taste with salt and pepper.

Stir occasionally until piping hot – but don’t let it boil.

 

*

 

–Denny’s Chicken Fried Steak–

 

4 Cubed steaks

Corn oil

Season salt

2 tablespoons Lambrusco’s red wine Or Juice

2 cups Bisquick

1/4 pound Butter or margarine — Melted

1/3 cup Cooking oil

 

The night before, put the steaks in a dish in single layers. Wipe them on both sides with an even coating of corn oil. Dust them on both sides with a generous amount of season salt. Drizzle each steak with wine or juice. Seal the dish in doubled foil or plastic wrap and refrigerate it for about 24 hours prior to preparing the final dish. Remove the steaks from the fridge and coat both sides well in the Bisquit mix.

Combine the butter with the oil in a large skillet until melted. Brown both sides of each steak, till crispy. Transfer right back to the same baking dish and seal in foil. Bake at 375~ about 30 minutes.

> Crust:

1 1/2 c. graham cracker crumbs

4 oz. butter, melted

1 tsp. cinnamon

1/4 c. sugar

 

Note: You can add a number of favorite filling ingredients. A favorite of mine is fresh raspberries.

Combine the graham cracker crumbs with the cinnamon and sugar. Add the melted butter. Press into pans and set aside. Cream the cheese, then add the remaining ingredients with the eggs last. Whip until smooth.

Bake for 20 minutes at 350 degrees, then turn down oven and bake for 55 minutes to 1 hour at 275 degrees. If the top starts to overflow the pan, press in sides gently.

After the baking is done, put wax paper on top and place a plate on top of paper to weigh it down. Cool. Top with sour cream layer and chocolate swirls; strawberries or leave plain.

HOME COOKING: Carl’s Jr Charcoaled Burger Restaurant Recipes You Can Do At Home – Carl’s Jr’s Famous Star – Carl’s Jr. Chicken Club – Prime Recipes

In an era when so-called value menus are attempting to lure customers with dollar-priced snacks and bite-sized burgers, Carl’s Jr. is proving that taste and quality never go out of style.

With the creation of its ultimate premium burger, the Prime Rib Six Dollar Burger, Carl’s Jr. set a new standard for quality fast-food and re-defined value in comparison to similar items available at fancy sit-down restaurants thoughout West Coast communities.

 The new high-end burger is the latest in the Carl’s Jr. string of “meat-as-a-condiment” menu items, which have included the Pastrami Six Dollar Burger and the Philly Cheesesteak Six Dollar Burger. The newest meat-on-meat creation is sure to satisfy even the hungriest of prime rib lovers.

The Prime Rib Six Dollar Burger consists of a charbroiled, 100 percent Black Angus beef patty topped with thinly-sliced prime rib, melted Swiss cheese, grilled onions and horseradish sauce all on a toasted Ciabatta roll – and all for about the price of a gallon of gasoline.

With enough spice to challenge even a jalapeño-lover’s taste buds, the Jalapeño Chicken Sandwich is also topped with Carl’s Jr.’s zesty, signature Santa Fe sauce and Pepperjack cheese, so it’s sure to leave stomachs satisfied and eyes glistening.

 

By combining the spicy success of the Jalapeño Burger and Jalapeño Six Dollar Burger with the juicy flavor of its marinated and charbroiled chicken breast sandwiches, Carl’s Jr. extends its history of product innovation in the quick-service restaurant industry. Carl’s Jr Charcoaled Burger Restaurant has united fast-food with real home-cooked taste. Among their most popular items are:

1. Parmesan Chicken Sandwich – A Crispy Chicken Fillet with Melted Cheese and Marinara Sauce on a Seeded Bun.

2. The Big Carl – Two charbroiled beef patties, our classic sauce, two slices of American cheese, and lettuce all on a toasted sesame seed bun.

3. Green Burrito Taco Salad – Seasoned Ground Beef with Refried Beans, Jack and Cheddar Cheeses, Lettuce, Fresh Salsa, Hot Sauce and Sou.r Cream in a Crispy Flour Tortilla Bowl.

4. Chili Cheese Fries – Natural Cut French Fries smothered in Chili and Shredded, Melted Jack and Cheddar Cheeses.

 

>>>And here are their most popular items – complete recipes so you can make ‘em at home!

–Carl’s Jr’s Famous Star–

1/4 pound ground chuck

1 large sesame-seed bun

Kraft mayonnaise

Heinz ketchup

Heinz hamburger relish (the red stuff)

Vlasic hamburger slices

tomato, white onion, lettuce

Pre-Prepare your Condiments:

Mix 1 Tablespoon ketchup with 1/2 Tablespoon relish, set aside. Chop the lettuce…you’ll need a handful per burger.

Thinly slice the tomato and onion. You’ll need 1-2 tomato slices, and 3-4 rings of fresh onion. (These amounts are for each Famous Star.

Divide one pound of ground chuck ito 4 equal portions. On waxed paper, form each portion into 5 inch round patties. Freeze for at least an hour.

Keep any spares frozen until needed. Obviously you’ll do this in advance. When cooking time draws near, toast the faces of the bun (top and bottom) on a 375 electric griddle. They should be an even tan color.

1. Preheat either an outdoor gas barbecue, or an indoor electric one. After it is pre-heated, place a still-frozen beef patty on the grill, pressing down firmly for 4-5 seconds. (This will get you the grill marks) Salt liberally. Cook for 3 minutes (gas) or 5-6 minutes (electric). Eyeball it—if it looks ready to turn, turn it.

2. While the beef is cooking, dress your bun as follows: Top Half: Your pre-mixed special sauce (ketchup and relish) 1/2 Tablespoon mayonnaise Bottom Half: 1/2 Tablespoon mayonnaise 3 pickle slices 1 handful of chopped iceberg lettuce 1-2 tomato slices 3-4 fresh rings of onion.

3. Turn the beef patty over, press down firmly with a spatula for 3-4 seconds, and salt liberally. (Don’t be afraid to have a few flames “kiss.” the burger…they are charbroiled.

4. Place the cooked beef patty on the dressed bottom bun, add the top. Carl’s Jr’s Famous Star 88 Want to make a Carl’s Jr All-Star ? After placing the beef on the bottom bun, add a slice of real Amercian cheese on top of the patty, then 2 slices of cooked bacon before placing the top bun on. (Criss-cross the bacon in an X pattern)

 

–Carl’s Jr. Chicken Club–

 2 Whole chicken breasts, Boned and halved

1 Cup Teriyaki marinade (Lawry’s Is best)

4 Whole-wheat hamburger buns

8 Slice Bacon

1/4 Cup Mayonnaise

1 Cup Alfalfa sprouts, loosely

Packed

4 Lettuce leaves

4 Large Tomato slices

4 Slice Kraft Swiss Cheese Singles

Marinate the chicken in the teriyaki marinade in a shallow bowl for 30 minutes. Preheat a clean barbecue to medium grilling heat.

Brown the faces of each bun in a frying pan on the stove. Keep the pan hot. Cook the bacon in the pan until crisp, then set aside.

Grill the chicken breasts 5 to 8 minutes per side, or until cooked through. Spread about 1/2 tablespoon of mayonnaise on the face of each bun, top and bottom. Divide the sprouts into 4 portions and mound on each bottom bun.

On the sprouts, stack a lettuce leaf, then a slice of tomato. Place one chicken breast half on each of the sandwiches, a top the tomato. Next, stack a slice of Swiss cheese on the chicken, and then the 2 pieces of bacon, crossed over each other.

Top off the sandwich with the top bun. Microwave for 15 seconds on high. Makes 4 sandwiches.

 

Bon Appetit!

 In 2008, Carl’s Jr. introduced its “Fake Restaurant” ad campaign. By using actors and props, Carl’s Jr. created a formal gourmet burger restaurant to demonstrate–via supposedly hidden cameras–people enjoying the burgers and the fact they will happily pay $14-16 for a Carl’s Jr. Six Dollar Burger, which actually is priced at only around $3.99 plus tax.

HOME COOKING: Outback Steakhouse Restaurant Recipes You Can Cook At Home – Marinated Steak – Queensland Chicken and Shrimp – Outback Kookaburra Wings

Decorated with an Australian Outback theme, Outback Steakhouse is a great place for the whole family to eat.

Although beef and steak items make up a good portion of the menu, the concept offers a variety of chicken, ribs, seafood, and pasta dishes. Restaurants display Aboriginal art, boomerangs, Australian maps, and other Aussie themed decor.

The menu continues the Outback theme with items like Kookaburra Wings, Walkabout Soup, and Grilled Shrimp on the Barbie, among many others.

Every day they start out fresh, making every one of their Aussie soups, salad dressings and sauces from scratch.

As part of Operation Feeding Freedom, Outback Steakhouse has been involved in feeding our military troops stationed in Afghanistan. Over a number of trips, they have fed our brave American, Canadian and British soldiers involved in combat operations over there.

The Operation Feeding Freedom menu featured signature dishes such as the Outback Bloomin’ Onion, Bonefish Bang Bang Shrimp, and Fleming’s Calamari. Also served were thick and juicy steaks, potatoes, Carrabba’s signature pastas, Bonefish Longfin Tilapia with Lobster Thermidor Sauce and Roy’s Beef Short Ribs.

 

>>> And now here is their most popular meal of all – OUTBACK MARINATED STEAK WITH SAUTEED MUSHROOMS & AUSSIE FRIES…

 

–Outback Steakhouse Steak Marinade–

1-2 pounds of steak – Sirloin, T-bone or rib steak

c. beer or ale

2 t. brown sugar

1/2 t. seasoned salt

1/4 t. each- black pepper and MSG

Let the steak marinate in the beer for at least an hour in the refrigerator.

Mix the dry ingredients together well.

After marinating, sprinkle the dry mix over the steak. Rub it all over the steak. Let the steak sit in the refrigerator another thirty minutes.

Put a pat of butter on the grill. When it’s very hot, add the steak. Cook to desired doneness.

Grilling tip: When grilling steaks, they will be much better if you let them come to room temperature first before grilling.

 

–Outback Steakhouse Sauteed Mushrooms–

1/2 c. chopped onions

3 T. butter or olive oil

1 can beef broth

32 oz jar button whole mushrooms, or fresh mushrooms

1/3 cup red wine.

Saute onions in butter or olive oil until translucent.

Add beef broth and onions ito a saucepan. Simmer on low about 15 minutes.

Add mushrooms with juice from jar and wine. Simmer additional 15 minutes.

 

–Outback Steakhouse Aussie Fries–

1 lb. bag of Frozen French Fries

1 Cup shredded Colby Jack cheese

6 pieces of Bacon, cooked

24 Fl. Oz. Peanut Oil

Heat oil to 350 degrees. If you do not have a thermostat, make sure the oil is hot enough, so that when you set a french fry in there it will cook immediately. If the french fry sinks to the bottom, and barely bubbles, it is not hot enough.

Fry the potatoes in small batches, they are done when they are golden brown, and float to the top of the skillet. Be sure to drain the potatoes on paper towels. You can keep them warm in the oven while the other fries are done.

When all french fries are done cooking, and drained place them onto a platter.

Salt the french fries if you like, and sprinkle on cheese and cooked bacon. Pop these back into a warm oven until the cheese begins to melt.

>>Dipping Sauce:

1/2 C. Sour Cream

1 Tbsp. Prepared Horseraddish

dash Cayenne Pepper
