Low Carb Orange Kissed CookiesLow Carb Orange Kissed Cookies. Who doesn’t like the taste of an orange.  I can no longer use oranges to cook or make anything, and orange juice is not good for you anyway, but I do use a lot of extracts and this little cookie is a good example. Low carb orange kissed cookies are perfect with an afternoon cup of tea.

Ingredients
  1. 2 C Almond Flour
  2. ¼ C Arrowroot
  3. 1½ t Baking Powder
  4. 2 T Orange Extract
  5. 1 t Vanilla Extract
  6. ½ C Sugar Free Maple Syrup
  7. ½ C Melted Butter
  8. 8 Drops Liquid Sucralose
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
  2. Combine dry ingredients.
  3. In separate bowl, combine liquid ingredients.
  4. Add to dry ingredients, mix until smooth and let sit for 10 minutes until thickened as in a soft cookie dough.
  5. Mix again and place by the spoonful (I use a scoop for uniformity) onto a Silpat or parchment lined baking sheet and bake 15-20 minutes or until browning begins at the edges. Cookies will spread and be relatively flat.

  1. I made them large with a #24 (3T) scoop and got exactly 12 cookies and with a #70 scoop (1T) I got exactly 36 so…3 smalls equal 1 large and you are probably less likely to eat 6 smalls than 2 large.

Keto Mississippi Comeback Sauce. Makes a great vegetable dipping sauce, a terrific salad dressing and if you eat sandwiches it is especially good on an Open-Faced Rueben Sandwich.  I bet once you have eaten this you will “comeback” with your own ways to use it. The recipe is easily doubled and lasts forever, and I’m guessing it won’t. (Last Forever) Keto Mississippi comeback sauce, in many cases, can be used as a substitute for mayo.

Low Carb Ratatouille

Leave a reply

Low Carb RatatouilleLow Carb RatatouilleLow Carb RatatouilleLow Carb Ratatouille SoupLow Carb Ratatouille. All I can say is leave it to the French-even their “peasants” know the fine art of cooking.  This is so good, makes a lot, and best of all it is easy to prepare.
Serve under/over eggs for breakfast, lunch or dinner, and yes, make a fabulous soup with the addition of more water and heavy cream. The best news is that the soup can be served cold, warm or hot.

Beware, if making jut soup best to make ½ a recipe or make it with left-over low carb ratatouille because it will make a LOT of soup. Probably 6 large bowls and 8-10 smaller cups.

Keto Baba Ganoush

2 Replies

Keto Baba GanoushKeto Baba GanoushKeto Baba Ganoush. For the uninitiated, Baba Ganoush is a Middle Eastern eggplant dip. I happen to think this stuff was sent to mankind by the Gods and if you have never had baba ganoush you might go to just about any Middle Eastern restaurant and try it. My prediction…you will love, love, love it-it’s addictive. The idea of the ribbed “waves” is to catch and keep the olive oil in place so if you can make them-please do, or at least make some facsimile of mountains and valleys.

Low Carb Baba GanoushTraditionally keto baba ganoush is smeared around the sides of a shallow bowl with the olives around the perimeter, drizzled with olive oil, and then scooped with torn flatbread or pita but…as low carbers we can not do this so I have given you some terrific alternatives.
Keto Baba Ganoush can be eaten many ways. You can use an olive to scoop a little baba, you can tear a Carbalose Flour Tortillas and scoop with that, you can cut your tortilla into wedges & lightly fry them for use as “pita chips”, you can use red pepper chips, you can use thinly sliced & peel cucumber coins. Don’t want pita chips? Then use Harvarti cheese…but the best way is to use any and all ways.  All combinations of the above work perfectly well as they all compliment the flavor of the baba.  If this doesn’t trip your trigger here is an equally good but different Smoky Eggplant Dip recipe made with my Super LCHF Yogurt, or…full fat store bought.

Baba Ganoush
Print
Ingredients
  1. 1 Large Or Two Medium Eggplants
  2. ¼ C Tahini
  3. 1-2 t Crushed Garlic (More Is Better)
  4. ¼ C Lemon Juice
  5. 2 T Olive Oil (I Use Extra Oil From The Top Of The Tahini)
  6. 1 t Liquid Smoke
  7. ½ t Salt (Or More To Taste)
  8. Olive Oil To Drizzle
  9. Minced Parsley As Garnish
  10. Pinch Sumac As Garnish
Directions
  1. Prick eggplant several places and roast in a 375° oven for about 45-60 minutes or until very soft and totally collapsed. Split hot eggplant down the center and when you can handle it, drain the juices.
  2. Scoop out ALL eggplant guts and put next 6 ingredients in food processor and process for 2 minutes until smooth. Taste and correct any seasoning.
  3. Drizzle with olive oil, garnish with parsley & Kalamata olives.

Notes
  1. How I prepare my eggplant: When the eggplant is finished baking, prop up the head & make a slit all the way through the top and down the front. Let cool for 10-15 minutes and then using the palm of you hand or a large spoon and starting at the top, begin pushing the juice out of it. Repeat this several times until no more comes out. Allow to cool. With a large spoon and a gentle hand, scoop out the pulp making sure you get even all the slimy stuff from the outer skin. Now, taking the crown in your fingers, squeeze the final pulp out of it.
  2. I do this for two reasons 1.) The juice is very sticky and is most of the sugar in an eggplant. 2.) Your final baba will be thicker and easier to scoop.
  3. This is better after being in the fridge a day or so but I’m betting it won’t happen…it tastes way too good to wait.

Keto Sauce Béarnaise

Keto Sauce BéarnaiseKeto Sauce BéarnaiseKeto Sauce BéarnaiseKeto Sauce BéarnaiseKeto Sauce Béarnaise. In the summer of 1972 in East Lansing, MI I had the opportunity to live in a house with 5 HRI (hotel, restaurant, & institutional management) students and I jumped at it.  It was the responsibility of each of us, one day a week, to shop with $10.00, prepare a meal for 6, and all sit down together to eat.  Talk about the good ole days-can you imagine feeding 6 college students on $10/day now?  Someone made this recipe and I have been making it ever since.  My only tweak has been the addition of the tarragon vinegar.   The reason I like it is that it is made in a food processor rather than over a double boiler of hot water.  This is so much much easier and pretty much full-proof if your butter is hot enough.  The French make this sauce so much harder and as you can see, I now make it the old fashioned way.

The absolute secret to this particular Keto Sauce Béarnaise is the use of tarragon vinegar.  I do add lemon juice to mine because I often enough serve it with seafood but I find the lemon juice goes with about anything.  Good on a brick but better yet on a good steak or Stuffed Shrimp. Those are NOT potatoes in the two lower pictures. They are either Dilled Red Radishes or Daikon Radish Fries but they sure do act and taste like potatoes.

Ingredients
  1. Ingredients
  2. 3 Large Egg Yolks Room Temperature
  3. 2 T White Wine
  4. 1 Stick Butter
  5. 1 Minced Nice Sized Shallot
  6. ¼ C Tarragon Vinegar
  7. ¼ C Water
  8. ½ t Dried Tarragon Leaves
  9. Pinch Cayenne Pepper
  10. ¼ t Tarragon
  11. 2 T Lemon Juice (Optional For When Using Sauce With Seafood)
  12. ¼ t Salt
Directions
  1. Start to slowly clarify butter-if you do it slowly it will not sputter & spatter and as it begins to clarify swirl the saucepan several times.
  2. Mince Shallot, add to vinegar & water, add ½ t tarragon and cayenne pepper and simmer ever so slowly. The idea is the get the minced shallot very soft. If you need more moisture add a bit more vinegar. When this is finished it should have just a little moisture left-maybe a T or so.
  3. Put egg yolks and white wine in small processor & add shallot mixture.
  4. Strain butter to get rid of the little cruddy buttons and immediately begin slowing pouring into running processor. It should thicken toward the end if your butter is hot enough so make sure you take butter from the stove, strain, and begin using immediately. The idea is that the very hot butter will “cook” the yolks and thicken them.
  5. Add lemon juice, (if using) last ¼ t tarragon, salt, and process. Taste and correct seasoning if necessary.

  4. Like lots of onion? Add more. Just remember onions have carbs which is why I grate mine. Grating gets you the most flavor, punch and bang for your buck.

Low Carb Bacon Wrapped Shrimp

Low Carb Bacon Wrapped ShrimpBacon Wrapped Shrimp

Low Carb Bacon Wrapped Shrimp. When buying shrimp you want to shop the count per pound NOT Small, Medium, Large, or Jumbo.  These terms mean absolutely nothing.  To see more regarding the sizing of shrimp please see SHRIMP under the Food Lagniappes page.

I try to buy U15’s (under 15 per pound) but 16-20 is a pretty good size shrimp for this recipe.

These are terrific dipped in Bleu Cheese Dressing, Remoulade Sauce, or Smoky Sweet & Sour Dipping Sauce as seen above.

Bacon Wrapped Shrimp

Ingredients
  1. 24 Large (12-15) Shelled & Deveined Shrimp/Tail On
  2. 12 Bacon Slices Cut In Half
Directions
  1. This is a Japanese trick and keeps the shrimp from curling. There is a long extremely well developed muscle running the length of the underbelly of a shrimp where the legs are attached and this muscle needs to be severed at each segment.
  2. With sharp pointed scissors cut the underbelly of each shrimp segment about ¼” and if you don’t have scissors, turn the shrimp upside down and with a sharp knife gently cut each segment.
  3. Lay bacon on cutting board vertically and place shrimp at a 45 degree angle. Wrap bacon in a spiral around each shrimp and secure with a toothpick at top.
  4. Heat oil on medium high until very hot and lay shrimp in-frying until bacon is finished. Don’t overcook as bacon will be hard and tough.
  5. Drain and serve with celery sticks and Bleu Cheese Dressing or Remoulade Sauce.

Gads, I tried and tried to make this keto poppy seed dressing with the original oil version but because I wasn’t using sugar I could not keep everything in suspension.  It tasted just like the original but it kept separating and you would have to shake it.  I have to say though, that this keto creamy poppy seed dressing version of the famous poppy seed dressing is pretty tasty stuff and nearly identical to it’s original sister. The salad shown is with strawberries, bacon and tomato.

Low Carb Cream Of Anything Soup

Leave a reply

Low Carb Cream Of Anything Soup and you will need a stick blender to make them.

Low Carb Cream Of Anything SoupI cook 2 or 3 large heads of cauliflower at a time, squeeze out as much water as possible, take my stick blender to it, and then freeze it measuring about 1½ cups at a time so I always have it either as a mashed potato substitute or to thicken soups. The soup shown is a cream of broccoli but as I say below, it could be anything.

I  suggest chicken base in lieu of salt because it has a depth of flavor that salt does not have.  I have always use this Premium Chicken Base.

Premium Chicken BaseThe link is in case anyone is interested in any of the R L Schreiber Bases.  They have every imaginable base there is.  I only know about them because of my association with the food industry.  If you actually end up ordering any of them you will need to call in the order and best to ask for Irene Ames.  You will see this used many times in my recipes.    Best to order the 2.5 lb sizes which fits well in your fridge.  Main site is rlschrieber.com and they have many many products.

Porcini Dust is used as an addition to enhance mushroom soup.

Cream Of Anything Soup

Ingredients
  1. ¾ C Onion Small Dice
  2. 2 T Butter, Olive or Coconut Oil
  3. 3 C Water
  4. 2 C Heavy Cream
  5. 1 T Chicken Base Paste*** ( I use a premium chicken base made by R L Schreiber)
  6. 1-2 C Cauliflower Puréed with stick blender depending on how thick you want your soup.
  7. Pinch of Nutmeg
  8. Fresh Pepper to Taste
  9. Correct Seasoning When Finished.
Directions
  1. Sauté onion in oil until translucent. Remove half.
  2. Add water, chicken base, cauliflower, and ½ of any blanched or sautéed vegetable you want (Broccoli, Mushrooms, Asparagus, etc.) and use stick blender to puree all.
  3. Add heavy cream and remaining ½ of your cooked vegetables, stir, and heat to temperature.
  4. If too thin add more cauliflower/if too thick add more water or cream.
  5. Season soup to taste with chicken base and pepper. (I have been using RL Schreiber Bases for years)
  6. If making mushroom soup add 2 t porcini dust. Wow, this makes the best mushroom soup ever.
  7. Makes 6-7 Cups
  8. 6 Servings
  9. Calories, and carbs will vary according to ingredients but will be very low carb.
Notes
  1. Variations: blanched broccoli, sautéed mushrooms, sautéed leeks, blanched asparagus, canned diced tomatoes, poached and pulled chicken/pork and whatever else you can think of.
  2. If using leeks and or onions puree all together and this will give you a soup so similar to vichyssoise you will not be able to tell the difference. You might serve this with drizzled melted butter, a dollop of sour cream, and topped with chives.
  3. Other great low carb additions to your soups might be lardons, bacon, Andouille, kielbasa, or your own choice of sausage and of course any number of cheeses.

As you can see I also make this in a smaller size suitable to split with a buddy.

I will never understand why people think it is so important to have a high carby crust with any quiche as it is so unnecessary. If it’s made correctly, the flavors with by far out-shine any crust you could possible put in it.
