Sweet Peanut Butter Cookies

andrestover Bakes, Cookies, National dishes peanut butter, USA 0

Cookies from the United States of America. It is believed that these cookies were made in the first or second decade of the 20th century. There are many different recipes for these cookies, the common denominator is that the cookies contain peanut butter as one of the main components. These cookies can be made both savory and sweet. My version of sweet cookies is like this.

Preparation time: 15-20 minutes
Level: Easy
Quantity: about 250 small cookies

Ingredients:
200 g room temperature butter
400 g of flour
300 g of peanut butter
100 g of white crystal sugar
100 g of brown sugar
3 eggs
1.5 teaspoons of baking powder
0.25 teaspoons of sea salt
1.5 teaspoons of vanilla sugar

Mix the butter, flour, peanut butter, both brown and white sugar, eggs, salt, baking powder and vanilla sugar.
Mix by hand into a smooth dough.
Shake a little flour on the work surface and roll ¼ of the dough to a thickness of about 2-4 mm and form cookies from the dough with a round mold (I used a 3 cm mold).
Place the cookies on a baking sheet covered with baking paper. Press stripes into the cookies with a fork, or in two directions forming a cross.
Bake at 180 degrees for 9 minutes.
Carefully place the cookies on the rack, cool, and place them in a storage container.

Dog bisquits

andrestover Bakes, Cookies banana, chicken liver, egg, peanut butter, rolled oats, banana 0

This is my first attempt at making suitable dog treats. I was inspired to make them by my friend Bruno, who came to spend his summer vacation with me. I thought about what things a dog might like and taste. I also thought about Bruno’s taste preferences. The choice fell on the liver, which is always to the taste of their preferences, so the cookies were made in such a way that the main flavor is the chicken liver, and the peanut butter and banana help to strengthen the taste and give it its nuance. In order to keep the cookie dough together, oatmeal and an egg have been used.
Bruno liked this combination.

Preparation time: About 30 minutes
Level: Easy
Quantity: 40 cookies

Ingredients:
100 g of chicken liver
100 g or a little more oatmeal
Half a banana
1 egg
1 heaped tablespoon of peanut butter

Preparation:

Blend the chicken liver with peanut butter, banana, and egg in a food processor until smooth.
Stir in the oatmeal. Mix the dough until smooth
Use a spoon to place the small balls on a baking sheet covered with baking paper.
Bake at 180 degrees C for 6 minutes.
Let the cookies cool and store them in an airtight container.
Give as a treat to your favorite.
Ready!!

Chicken in peanut butter-tomato sauce

andrestover Bird meat, National dishes chicken, cilantro, Congo, cumin, peanut butter, peanut, Sub-Saharan Africa, Tomato paste, tumeric 0

A recipe from sub-Saharan Africa. I have found this recipe on websites describing food and travel in Congo, Ethiopia, Nigeria, and Senegal, and it is listed as one of the national dishes of Congo.
The question always arises whether these flavors in my recipes are also authentic and specific to the area. The answer to this question is probably both yes and no. There are some nuances in the local restaurants that give a completely different and unique variation. The spices are also grown in different regions from those available in Estonia and taste different. At the same time, I have not met two chefs who could prepare very similar food following the same recipe.
In my recipes, I have used as real recipe sources as possible and tried to find local publications from which to find inspiration. I have also used as authentic spices as possible. So yes, these recipes reflect local tastes as good as possible and no, they have nuances that make this food unique among all foods made according to the same recipe.

1 teaspoon sweet pepper powder
1 teaspoon of sea salt
0.5 teaspoons ground black pepper
3-4 tablespoons vegetable oil for frying
A handful of crushed peanuts for decoration

Valmistamisaeg: 30 min
Tase: lihtne
Kogus: neljale

Koostisosad
2 suuremat maguskartulit (bataati) või umbes 1kg
150g maapähklivõid

Soovi korral natuke värsket koriandrit supile peale raputamiseks

Valmistamine
1. Bataadid koorida ja lõigata tükkideks
2. Sibul ja küüslauguküüned hakkida (ei ole oluline, et oleks väga peeneks)

4. Lisada 2-3 kruusi vett ja bataadilõigud. Lisada vajadusel veel vett nii, et bataadilõigud oleksid napilt veega kaetud.

Selleks ajada natuke õli pannil kuumaks keskmisele kuumusele, lisada kuivaks nõristatud kikerherned ja praadida kuni need muutuvad krõbedaks. Paar minutit enne praadimise lõppu lisada 0,5 tl vürtsköömneid ja musta pipart. Praadida pidevalt segades.
8. Supp peab olema suhteliselt paks. Vajadusel lisada keedetud vett. Serveerida suppi nii, et peale raputada krõbedaid kikerherneid ja hakitud koriandrilehti.
