Crisp Wild Rice Griddlecakes With Golden Caviar And Sour Cream Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.
• Whisk together the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl. Whisk together the milk, honey and egg yolks together in another medium bowl until combined. Whisk the egg whites in another medium bowl until stiff peaks form.
• Add the milk mixture to the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Gently fold in the egg whites, and then 2 tablespoons of the melted butter. Mix until the batter is just smooth and let rest for 10 minutes.
• Heat a large nonstick saute pan, cast-iron pan or griddle over medium-high heat. Brush the pan with some of the remaining melted butter. Spoon 2 heaping tablespoons of the batter onto the pan for each johnny griddle cake. Spread the batter slightly just to even out the top using a small offset spatula. Cook until lightly golden brown on each side, about 1 minute 30 seconds per side. Transfer to a baking sheet and keep warm in the oven until ready to serve.

Steps:

• In a bowl, mix rice, carrots, onions, cheese, and thyme, add salt and pepper, to taste. Sprinkle baking powder and flour over mixture, then stir well. Pour in eggs and mix lightly until blended.
• Heat a cast-iron frying pan over a fire or over medium-high heat. Add a thick film of oil. Drop 3 or 4 heaping spoonfuls of batter into pan and flatten slightly, making cakes about 3-inches in diameter. Cook until crispy and well browned on bottom (about 3 minutes), turn cakes with a spatula, and cook until browned on the other side (about 2 minutes). Drain on paper towels. Repeat with remaining batter, adding more oil as necessary. Serve hot.

Steps:

• In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt butter. Add the vegetables and saute for 4 to 5 minutes. Season with the salt, black pepper and cayenne. Stir in the cream and add the cooked wild rice and the mustard. Combine well and reduce the heat. Simmer until the cream has thickened, about 5 to 7 minutes. Adjust seasoning, if necessary, stir in the parsley and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Combine first 7 ingredients.
• Add the baking powder and flour, stir well.
• Add eggs and stir.
• Heat a frying pan over medium-high heat.
• Add oil.
• Drop mounds of batter into pan and flatten slightly to make cakes about 3-inches across.
• Cook until browned on bottom and crispy.
• Turn cakes and cook until browned on the other side (about 3 minutes).
• Set aside and keep warm.
• Continue frying until all the batter is used.
• Add more oil as necessary.
• Serve hot.

Steps:

• Lightly grease a heavy nonstick pan (i.e. spray with non-stick cooking spray), and start heating it at medium-high heat.
• Sift together the dry ingredients in one bowl.
• In a separate bowl, combine the eggs, milk, and butter.
• Now combine the dry and wet ingredients together, stirring just enough to moisten the dry ingredients. Do not worry about getting rid of all of the lumps. (It is important to combine the dry and wet ingredients separately, and then combine them together to reduce the amount of time that the gluten in the flour has to toughen up.).
• Pour the batter onto the hot pan in about 4" circles.
• Flip the cakes when they get bubbly on the one side.
• Continue cooking until the bottom browns. I usually peek by pulling up the edge with a spatula.
• If the griddle cakes are cooking too fast, reduce the heat.
• Never flip the griddle cakes more than once as this will make them heavy.
• Serve the griddle cakes immediately even if this means that people have to eat at different times because there are not enough to go around when the first batch comes off of the griddles.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, mix together sour cream, scallions, chives, pepper and salt to taste. Let sit at room temperature for at least 10 minutes so the flavors can meld (or chill for up to 24 hours before serving).
• Spoon caviar on top and serve with potato chips and celery sticks.

Steps:

• Sift together the flour, cream of wheat, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl; set bowl aside. Whisk together the milk, sour cream, vegetable oil, egg, and vanilla in a separate bowl. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients, and stir in the wet ingredients. Do not overmix the batter.
• Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Pour 1/3 cupfuls of batter onto the skillet, and cook until bubbles appear on the surface. Flip with a spatula, and cook until browned on the other side.

Steps:

• In a fine sieve rinse rice under cold running water and drain. In a small heavy saucepan bring 2 cups water to a boil and stir in rice. Simmer rice, uncovered, until just tender but grains are not open, about 40 minutes. Drain rice in sieve and rinse under cold running water. Drain rice well and transfer to a bowl. Rice may be made 1 day ahead and chilled, covered. Bring rice to room temperature before proceeding.
• Lightly beat egg and stir into rice with chives and salt and pepper to taste.
• In a large non-stick skillet heat 1 tablespoon oil over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking. Drop heaping teaspoons rice mixture into skillet without crowding and cook, flattening griddlecakes slightly with a spatula (griddlecakes should be about 1 1/2 to 2 inches in diameter), until golden brown, about 1 1/2 minutes on each side. Transfer griddlecakes as cooked to paper towels to drain and season with salt and pepper. Make more griddlecakes in same manner with remaining rice mixture and oil.
• Cool griddlecakes slightly and top with sour cream and caviar. Garnish griddlecakes with chives.
