    AGA, Me and Recipes

    July 17, 9:51 AM
     
     
    It was my first, you can remember your first, you know it was awkward, a lot of fumbling around but the deed got done.  As a recently ordained AGA stove demonstrator, I lost my AGA cherry yesterday when I did my first cooking demonstration on  the Rolls Royce of stoves at the Appliance Source in Easton. 

    What is unique to the AGA stoves is they are centrally heated and the stove cooks with radiant heat, there are no heat controls or electronic knobs – it is always on and ready to go. You might remember seeing the stove on the Two Fat Ladies television show. It's at the top of my wish list. 
     
    A picture is worth a thousand words – check out the video.
     
     
     
    Scallion Cilantro Pancakes
     
    I’m writing about my adventure because I adapted two yummy savory pancake recipes that I want to share with you, one being a scallion cilantro pancake that I adapted to an approximate 2 inch pancake to hold thin slices of teriyaki steak. I didn’t make the dipping sauce and I substituted chopped cilantro instead of the small cilantro leaves and sliced scallions instead of the 1 ½ inch pieces of scallions.  I like the pancake as a foil to the teriyaki steak - RECIPE
     
    As for making teriyaki steak, so simple, get a jar of Kikkoman’s Teriyaki sauce and marinate your steak.
     
    Mustard Dill Pancakes with Smoked Salmon
     
    Again, I made smaller versions of the pancakes, 2 inch rounds to hold the smoked salmon. The pancakes were full of flavor and the mustard seeds (readily available in the McCormick display – the glass bottle priced out better than the little plastic jar) added a nice crunch.   I added some dill to the sour cream topping and didn’t used the caviar. These pancakes look like they would freeze well. Feel free to substitute crème fraiche for the sour cream. - RECIPE
