Goodness Gracious, Great Bars Of Spam! Recipe
Goodness Gracious, Great Bars Of Spam! Ingredients:
2 can Spam luncheon meat -, (12 oz ea)
1 can whole-berry cranberry sauce -, (16 oz)
1 1/4 cup brown sugar
1 cup seedless raisins
3/4 cup chopped walnuts
1/2 cup orange marmalade
1/2 tsp salt
1 orange
=== DOUGH ===
4 cup flour
2 tbsp baking powder
2 tsp salt
1 1/3 cup milk
2/3 cup oil
=== GLAZE ===
1 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
3 tbsp milk
1 tbsp rum
Goodness Gracious, Great Bars Of Spam! Preparation:
Prepare the filling: In a food processor or meat grinder (or with a knife,
if
you have some time) chop the Spam until it is the consistency of
hamburger.
Put the Spam, cranberry sauce, brown sugar, raisins, walnuts, marmalade
and
the 1/2 teaspoon salt in a Dutch oven. Grate the peel of the orange into
the
mixture, then squeeze in the juice of the orange (catching any seeds in a
strainer or your hand). Stir well. Cook, stirring over medium heat until
the
mixture boils. Continue cooking 20 minutes, stirring very often. Cool.
Prepare the dough: Combine the flour, baking powder and the 2 teaspoons
salt
in a bowl. Add milk and oil, stirring until the flour is fully moistened.
Knead the dough briefly on waxed paper, and divide in half.
Roll half the dough between 2 sheets of waxed paper until it is slightly
bigger than a 17- by 10-inch cookie sheet or jelly roll pan. Peel off the
top
sheet of waxed paper, invert the pan over the dough and invert the pan and
dough together. Peel off the other sheet of waxed paper. Press the dough
so it
covers the bottom and goes up the sides of the pan. Spoon the filling
evenly
over the dough.
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
Roll the second half of the dough between 2 sheets of waxed paper to the
same
dimensions -- slightly larger than the pan. Remove the top sheet and
quickly
flip the dough onto the filling. (He who hesitates is in real trouble
here.
Once it starts falling off the waxed paper, there's no reasonable way to
catch
the dough.)
Remove the backing sheet and press the top and bottom layers of dough
together
at the edges. Don't worry if the top layer doesn't quite make it to the
edge;
it'll be fine. Make 4 long diagonal slashes through the top layer to
minimize
shrinkage. Bake 25 to 30 minutes, until the crust is golden brown.
Remove from oven and prepare the glaze: Combine confectioners' sugar, milk
and
rum. Mix until smooth. When the bars have cooled slightly, drizzle the
glaze
over them and spread evenly with a knife or spatula. Allow to cool, and
cut
into bars.

| "A man accustomed to American food and American domestic cookery would not starve to death suddenly in Europe, but I think he would gradually waste away, and eventually die." | | 'A Tramp Abroad', Mark Twain (Samuel Langhorne Clemens) (1835-1910) |
| “This root [the potato], no matter how much you prepare it, is tasteless and floury. It cannot pass for an agreeable food, but it supplies a food sufficiently abundant and sufficiently healthy for men who ask only to sustain themselves. The potato is criticised with reason for being windy, but what matters windiness for the vigorous organisims of peasants and labourers?” | | Denis Diderot (1713-1784) L'Encyclopedie (1751-1772) |
