AMISH PERFECTION SALAD

A delicious take on jello. Although the combination may sound a bit on the odd side, it is extremely refreshing, especially on a hot summer day. Perfect for BBQs and Potlucks. For a "healthier" version, we use sugar-free jello (0.3 ounce package). **Chilling Time not included in Preparation**

Steps:

  • Mix together the Jell-O and sugar in a 9-inch glass pie plate.
  • Add boiling water and stir for at least 2 minutes, until fully dissolved.
  • Stir in the cold water and refrigerate 35 to 40 minutes, uncovered, until the Jell-O has set to a point between liquid and solid but is not fully firm.
  • Add the pineapple and carrots. (Adding the pineapple and carrots at this stage will cause the heavier pineapple to sink to the bottom and the lighter carrots to stay on top.).
  • DO NOT STIR.
  • Refrigerate until firm.

1 (3 ounce) package orange Jell-O
1 teaspoon sugar
1 cup boiling water
1 cup cold water
1/2 cup carrot, peeled and shredded
1/2 cup canned crushed pineapple, drained

CREAMY FRUIT MEDLEY

Last but not least, Yvonne tosses together an effortless sweet treat to cap off the meal. "I received the recipe for Creamy Fruit Medley from a friend of my mother's years ago," she recalls. "I always have the ingredients on hand in case I need a quick dessert. "Any flavor of gelatin works well, and sometimes I spoon it into individual parfait glasses instead of serving it in one big bowl," Yvonne suggests. "Everyone enjoys it."

PERFECTION SALAD

A family recipe dating back to the early part of the 20th century, by my great-grandmother. I have a tendency to think of this as Grandpa's salad, because he always prepared it for us. My mom and sister still make it for our holiday family gatherings, although now we usually use sugarfree Jello. (I've recently discovered that Perfection Salad is not something unique to our family - there are a lot of old recipes on net for it. They're generally similar to the one below.)

Steps:

  • Pour boiling water over jello in bowl.
  • Stir until jello is disolved.
  • Stir in vinegar, veggies, salt, and cold water.
  • Pour into mold, chill until firm.
  • Serve unmolded on chilled plate, topped with a generous dollop of mayonnaise (family tradition of the last 30 years or so demands that you use Best Foods mayo brand - *never* Miracle Whip).
  • If preferred, use 1/2 cup celery and 1 cup grated carrot.
  • You can use sugar-free jello for a diabetic/lowcarb version of Perfection Salad. Sometimes lemon jello is difficult to find - we've sometimes used lime instead.

1 cup boiling water
1 (3 ounce) package lemon Jell-O gelatin
2 tablespoons vinegar or 2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup cold water
1 cup finely diced celery
1 cup finely shredded cabbage
1 tablespoon dried onion flakes
2 tablespoons chopped pimiento
mayonnaise (Best Foods, Helmann's, or Vegenaise)

  • Amish Breakfast Casserole. Start your day with a hearty breakfast casserole. Loaded with hash browns, bacon, and cheeses, this casserole is the stuff of legends.

  • Amish Friendship Bread. This bread has an interesting name, story, and a delightful flavor. Amish friendship bread is a cake-like bread made from a starter that gets passed on from person to person, much like chain mail.
  • Amish Yumasetti Casserole. What a fun name, am I right? Yumasetti is a traditional Amish casserole made of noodles and beef. There are many variations of the casserole – some with tomato sauce, others topped with cheese.
  • Amish White Bread. With this homemade Amish white bread, your sandwiches have never tasted better. This loaf is super soft, fluffy, and just plain delightful.
  • Amish Baked Chicken. Amish baked chicken is so crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside! It’s so good, you’ll easily fool people into thinking it took your hours to make.

  • Amish Buttermilk Biscuits. These buttermilk biscuits are wonderfully rich and flaky. You’ll think they require hours to make, but they’re actually done in just 30 minutes thanks to a simple folding technique.


OUR MOST TRADITIONAL AMISH AND MENNONITE RECIPES

  • Amish Macaroni Salad. A potluck classic, this creamy pasta salad goes with just about everything. Sugar gives it a traditionally sweet edge, though you can use less if you like.
  • Amish Casserole. Simple, hearty, and budget-friendly are the hallmarks of Amish cooking, and this casserole has all three. You also probably have most of the ingredients in your pantry already.
  • Cabbage Borscht. Cabbage borscht is a very traditional Mennonite dish that's just as delicious today, especially on a chilly night. This version is made even heartier with the addition of chicken, potatoes, and carrots.

  • Pennsylvania Dutch Pickled Beets and Eggs. Many reviewers love this recipe, a Pennsylvania Dutch classic, for after Easter when there's plenty of leftover hard-boiled eggs around.
  • All-Day Apple Butter. This concentrated spiced apple spread is famous in Lancaster, PA, an Amish country town where apples are harvested and preserved every fall.
  • Amish Slaw. Christina J shares the slaw she makes in her Amish community. The quick pickle method (a hot sugar and vinegar mixture that's poured over the cabbage) helps preserve the mix for a few days in the fridge.
  • Amish Meatloaf. "I have made it so many times I have lost count," says Lori W. of this meatloaf. The Amish twist to this classic includes crushed butter crackers in place of breadcrumbs in the filling and a couple slices of bacon layered beneath the ketchup glaze.
