Potato Crust Pizza Recipe

Makes (1) 16 inch 41 centimeter thin crust pizza

2-2 ½ lb/900-1215g potatoes, slice thin on the mandolin into rounds*

corn or potato starch for dusting the rounds

1 tsp/5ml YaDa Chef’s Maya Natural Sea Salt

1 tsp/5ml fresh ground black pepper

¼ cup/59ml Parmesan cheese (optional)

1 tbsp/15ml olive oil to drizzle over potatoes

2 cloves garlic, sliced thin

Toppings of your choice…

Pre-heat oven to 450F/232C/GasMark 8

After slicing the potatoes place in a large bowl cover with cold water, swish around, drain repeating 2 more times. This is removing excess starch. Dry potatoes well using either paper towels or a clean kitchen cloth. Dust lightly with corn or potato starch. Lightly oil a 16 inch/41 centimeter pizza round. Lay potatoes around the pan slightly overlapping the potatoes. Sea with some salt and pepper and light sprinkling of the Parmesan cheese if using. Continue the layers until potatoes are used keeping the layers uniform. Drizzle with oil to help brown. Place in pre-heated oven for 45 minutes. Remove potatoes from oven. Lower the heat to 375F/190C/GasMark 5. Evenly lay the garlic over the crisped potatoes, then the remaining ingredients. Drizzle with olive oil. Place in oven for 20-35 minutes.

*use more potatoes for a thicker crust

YaDa Chef Tip: You can make the crust in advance and finish when you are ready to eat. substitute non-dairy cheese to make this vegan.

How To Clean Your Coffee Pot

Cleaning Your Coffee Pot The glass jug that comes with a coffeemaker can quickly develop a brown, b lotchy haze – especially when you leave it on for long periods of time. For the quickest cure, you will need some ice, salt and a lemon. Fill the empty jug a quarter full of ice. Cut the lemon into quarters and squeeze two of the quarters into the jug. Add 2 tablespoons of salt. Swirl the mixture in the jug for 2 minutes and the inside surface will quickly come clean. Rinse under the tap. This work with coffee percolators too. personal chefs and event catering Miami + Miami Beach + Fort Lauderdale + Palm Beach www.yadachef.com

Gluten Free and Dairy Free Pancake Recipe

Pancakes have been around since Prehistoric times. In Scotland and the USA they are a leavened dough much like a “drop s cone”. In Britain they are unleavened and resemble more of a thicker crepe. In my house they were reserved for Sunday breakfast or the occasional “breakfast for supper”, which was always a treat. Here is a GREAT version that just happens to be wheat/gluten free. Your family will never know if you don’t tell them. Serves 4 (about 16 pancakes) 2 cups/500ml almond milk (you can use dairy milk, rice, coconut or hemp) 2 large eggs (you can substitute 2 tablespoons of ground flax mixed with 6 tablespoons/90mls warm water) 1/4 cup/60ml melted vegetable shortening or butter 2 cups/347g Gluten-Free Multi-Purpose Flour (I used King Arthur) 2 tablespoons sugar 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder 1/2 teaspoon salt 3/4 teaspoon xanthan gum (helps with chew and binding) 2 capfuls of pure vanilla extract Whisk the milk, eggs and shortening together. Sieve the flour, sugar, b...

Patriotic Pudding Cups Recipe

Patriotic Pudding Cups Recipe This is what you will need if you would like to make it too: INGREDIENTS: - 3 packages White Chocolate Pudding (3.3 oz each) - 5.5 cups milk - Blue (Summertime) Oreos - Clear Cups - Food Coloring - Cool Whip DIRECTIONS: 1. Gather all of your supplies together. 2. Crush your Oreos and spoon a few tablespoons into the bottom of your clear cups. 3. From there you will make your pudding one at a time. Make the pudding as directed (mix box with 3 cups of milk), but be sure to add your food coloring. I like the gel food colors because they make the food a very vibrant color. Before it sets and it is mixed well, pour into your cup over your layer of crushed Oreos. You will continue on with your middle layer. Instead of mixing 2 cups of cold milk with your pudding, only mix 1.5 cups and add 2 cups of COOL WHIP Whipped Topping. I did this to make the middle layer more fluffy as well as make it a more white color than the off-white color of ...

Easy Gluten Free Tahini Cookie Recipe

Using sesame seed butter - either store bought or homemade - is egg, nut, soy, and dairy free. Sweetened with honey, we used organic raw, and fruit, this delicious oatmeal base cookie is exceptionally easy. 6 1/2 tablespoons/127g of tahini (we think that peanut butter can be used - though the recipe will of course have nuts in it - the taste will not be quite the same but should work) 1/2 cup/125ml of honey 1/2-3/4 teaspoon of ground cinnamon 1 1/2 cups/120g uncooked oats (quick cooking oats are optimal but old fashioned will work too) 1/2 cup/76g chopped dates (and/or raisins, and/or banana, and/or chocolate chips, and/or walnuts) Preheat your oven to 350F/175C/Gas 4 Grease your cookie sheet(s). ** We over greased our cookie sheet in fear the honey would crystalize and stick. Was a mistake. It does not appear much greasing is needed in our experience **. In a medium bowl, combine the tahini, honey and cinnamon. Mix in the oats and fruit(s)/nuts until well b...
