 Home Made Kahlua
Since not everyone brews their own beer, here's a little something different to try; This is one awesome version of kahlua, and so easy to make!

2 cups boiling water
3 cups sugar
1/4 Cup Maxwell House Instant Coffee
1 finely chopped vanilla bean
1 quart vodka (cheap stuff works just fine!)

Mix sugar, coffee and chopped vanilla bean; Add water and stir well until disolved.
Allow to stand for about 10 minutes, then stir in vodka.  Bottle using either standard cappable bottles or bottles that can be corked.  Age for a minimum of 30 days, and serve; best aged a minium of 6 months.
This will age well for years, and makes a terrific gift.
 


Jalepeno Jelly
Believe it or not, this is not hot!  Served with cream cheese on a cracker, this is a real treat

2 large bell peppers, seeded
6 hot peppers (I mixed several types)
6 cups sugar
8 oz. honey
1 cup cider vinegar
1 package liquid pectin
1/2 teaspoon margarine
 

 In a food processor, pulse all peppers until chopped fine.
Place in a sauce pot with vinegar and honey, bring to simmer for about 10 minutes
Add sugar and magarine (to prevent foaming), and boil about 2 more minutes.
Stir in pectin, boil 1 to 1-1/2 minutes, then pour immediately into sterilized jelly jars.
Place lids and screw tops on, invert jars for about 20 minutes, then return to upright position for cooling.

Note:  A drop of red food coloring will enhance the appearance of your jelly.
Also, if you see the bits of pepper floating quickly to the top of the jar, turn them back upside down a bit longer; this will help the bits to float throughout the jelly more evenly as it finishes setting up.

Yield: approximately 5-1/2 cups



 
Ro-Dialin' Clam Cakes
Surely you should head to the big rock over in the cove at the next low tide and dig fresh quahogs for this, but if it's high tide or you don't happen to live near the ocean, it's ok to use canned clams for this.
 

1 pint fresh chopped clams, liquid reserved *
4 cups all-purpose flour
4  large eggs
2 cups milk
2 Tbs. baking powder
2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. ground black pepper
oil for deep frying
 

* If using canned clams, substitute 3 six-ounce cans, reserving liquid from two cans)

Beat eggs and combine with milk; set aside
In a large bowl mix flour, baking powder, salt, pepper, and mix thoroughly.
GENTLY fold in clams, egg mixture, and just enough clam juice to create a moist mix. DO NOT OVERMIX!

Scoop out with a large spoon and drop into 375F oil, a few at a time.  The clamcakes will usually work their own magic, and flip over as they cook. Remove once both sides are golden brown. Serve immediately
