I know that recipes from establishments on WDW properties (Swan, Dolphin, Downtown Disney) have been acceptable since the thread was started. I didn't think the copycats or clones were being done because they aren't Disney recipes. Maybe some of the others will chime in with thier thoughts. I personally don't like the clones and wouldn't want them to end up in my files. That's just me though. Others might have another opinion. :flower3:
...I think since the person who created the thread posted the "copycat" recipe, it is fine. lynninpa was only offering this recipe since the recipe is not available. There is no official recipe for Dole Whips because as one PP stated, it is a mix purchased and put into soft serve machines. I think the recipe posted is fine and in the nature intended by the creator of the thread (for heaven's sake, she posted it). If you do not want it in your files, don't add them........problem solved.
If people start posting non-Disney related recipes, issue could be taken. The fact is as long as the recipe is Disney related it will be fine. Technically, the recipes from many on-site restaurants are not Disney at all, but they are Disney related which makes them ok........I know we want to keep this as a Disney recipe thread, but we do not need to get too picky or too snotty just because the recipe may not fit our definition of a "Disney recipe". I would say if it is Disney related it is ok to post........if it is not Disney related, post it on another thread. JMNSHO!

I would prefer to avoid clones as well...
When there are multiple versions of many of these recipes floating around, who is to decide which one's are the real vs. the clone??? Often, the recipe is passed along from person to person and changes are made without being noted. Often, restaurants give out different recipes for the same dish (how this happens I will never know) and then we have multiple clones of the original, which one should be posted??? See the problems we could run into if we get too picky about what is posted.
What gets me is when people post their version of a recipe although it is already listed in the index because they are sure their version is the real one........read the index people and if it is listed discuss the differences, but don't re-list the recipe because this could be a headache for Deb (piratesmate) as she updates the index. Help a mod out!!!

That's a good comment. If I see a different version for a recipe in a Disney cookbook, I often post what the differences are because the version from the Chef (professional kitchen) and cookbook (home kitchen) are bound to be slightly different. One hopes the cookbooks have been subject to more rigorous editing - though sometimes I wonder!
For me, Disney recipe collections are akin to Disney pin collections, Disney china collections, etc. and the criterion for my collection is that is has to be original (or as original as possible) and has to have been served at least once on any Disney property or Cruise Line. So that includes the Catering recipes, Food and Wine Festival, all "official" restaurants on Disney property (including Downtown Disney, California Adventure, Swan and Dolphin, Worldwide Disneylands and DVCs).
The Dole Whip recipe is a grey area as our resident Chef stated so I'm not fussed about it but generally I'd prefer recipes that come from an authentic source and have the Kopycats on another thread.
I appreciate all the work you're doing on the index Piratesmate, because I know how very tedious it is - especially if you're going to format it by hand. I like the idea of 2 sortings because I can find either the course I'm looking for or the restaurant. :goodvibes

Your right, 1 clone recipe isn't an issue then there's the second and the third that have been posted in the past couple of days. I simply didn't want the ideas of the original creator of this thread compromised by a bunch of copycat recipes that aren't the real thing. No need for snotty attitudes, it's really not that important in the grand scheme of things. I was trying to look out for Lynnpa...............SJGAFYS

Wouldn't all of the variations of a WDW recipe that WDW sends out to people *still* be WDW authentic WDW recipes? :rotfl:
I don't think it's fair to assume that if a person posted a recipe already posted previously did it out of some kind of "mine is better than yours" attitude. It was likely an oversight.

Like I said, lynninpa is the person who posted the first "copycat" recipe, so I am positive her vision has not been compromised........I looked over the last 2 weeks worth of posts and the only "copycat" recipes (two in total) are for items which are commercially produced and the recipes are not available in any public forum (much like Dole Whips). I don't speak for lynninpa, but her words/posts seem to imply these types of recipes are fine.
SJGAFYS????? What???? Not following the initials on that one. :confused3

Well, not really........what if the waiter copied it down wrong, maybe the chef on duty fails to include an ingredient, or maybe extra ingredients are listed.......at that point it is a clone. A prime example of this would be the discussion we had a while back about French Onion Soup; after much discussion it was resolved when Tatania (I think it was her) got an updated recipe which included a missing ingredient. Without this ingredient it was just onion water, not soup........it was a mere clone of what it was supposed to be. Not everything issued by Disney is accurate. This has been seen in the poor editing in their cookbooks which many posters have pointed out in this thread.

Yes, you are correct........just me being too cynical. Sorry!!! :hug:

For me a clone or copykat recipe is one that a person tries to recreate because they do not have the original, ie the dole whip recipe and the pretzel bread recipe.
If a recipe is transcribe incorrectly and an ingredient is left out as was the case of the corn bread and onion soup then that is an error and just needs to be corrected. Have the person edit their post and make a notation. I wouldn't call that a clone, but that my 2 cents (and thats probably all its worth :laughing: ).

OK ladies, I'm going to ask that we table this discussion before it gets ugly.
Let's just leave it that substitute recipes should only be posted in this thread if the original is unavailable and should be clearly marked so that those who wish to avoid them can easily do so.

Okay Ladies & Gentleman!! Just caught up and have to say:scared1:. I am on a regular thread that was moved from the welcome board to the CB, so I know it can be scary being moved and if things will change. I am here to say NO, they don't. Goffymamma, I realize you were thrilled with this thread when you found it, but if it was 'okay' with the op to give a recipe that is not made, the same with the pretzels which has been brought up several times in this thread. IMHO, then there is nothing wrong with offering the closest sub.
I think we need to be aware of checking the index so we don't duplicate and if we have a full menu of recipes that has been around for a while, we could post we have these available if anyone is interested. Unless it is on the requested list, if it is from a cookbook that the masses had available ten years ago, we may want to consider posting and using up the '250' pages for threads.
Finally, piratesmate welcome aboard!!!
WE have a mod who not only is in†erested and can share a few of her own, so wouldn't it be nice tha† she is on our thread to share:goodvibes,

<snip>Then I have a few recipes from Chef Dick at the Poly Concierge Tonga Building that he would serve during the 5-7 pm time frame.
2 are when they would have middle eastern night on Sat. These are from quite a few years back I would say more then 5 years ago.
cous cous salad
bean dip
both served w/pita bread
<snip>
I'm always interested in a new pork loin recipe as it's an easy dinner to make. I have the recipe for the Bacon Wrapped Pork Tenderloin from Sonya's at Disney's Vero Beach Resort but not Hilton Head (where we're going in August for a week). <snip>
I don't see these recipes in the index yet. Would you both please be so kind as to post them? Yum! :teeth:

I'm guessing there are actually 2 separate recipes. The Mango Flan on page 121 doesn't contain any coconut - unless I'm still asleep & can't see it. :rotfl: The DIS site, wdwinfo, shows Coconut Flan on the menu. Another site shows Mango Flan on the menu. That site shows the date for the menu as Feb '08, but I didn't see a date on WDWinfo. :confused3

I first want to say that I had no plan to “jump ship” when it came to this thread. I absolutely loved reading posts and updating the recipe lists! You all know I did it faithfully each day. I was excited when someone posted requesting a recipe that they just had to have and I was even more excited to try and find it for them! Yes, things got quite hectic in my life yet I still looked forward to logging onto the DisBoards Official Disney Recipe Exchange! Then the messages started…
“I posted a requested recipe. Are you going to take it off of the Requested List?!!” (After 2 days-geez, give me a moment to breath)
“Could “we” change the format of the Recipe Index?” “I find your format tedious…”
“I would be happy to take over for you if this is too much for you” **This was mentioned to me repeatedly even when I was updating 3 times a day!
"I have taken the liberty of updating both the index and a request list..." (NOT from a Moderator)
People suddenly claiming to have secret inside sources at a particular restaurant when a new recipe from that dining spot was requested. What a coincidence! And many times it was not the recipe served in the restaurant.
I started the Disney Recipe Exchange in hopes of a fun, light-hearted way for all of us to share recipes from a very special place we all hold close to our hearts. In the mood for making Tonga Toast on a lazy Sunday morning? You came to the right place! Want that special Disney cocktail recipe you had on your honeymoon? Again, you came to the right place.
Do you want to repeatedly bicker and complain about the order the recipes are in or that your recipes were not spotlighted as the Recipe of The Year? Do you get upset and claim that other posters recipes are not "official" because you claim to make three 7-course-Dsieny-meals 5 times a week. No thanks.
Again, I loved every moment I spent updating lists, searching for recipes and just simply sharing time with fellow Disers who shared my love of Disney dining spots!
I hope this continues to be a great thread for my fellow Disers!

Hi Llyninpa,
I’m also glad to hear that everything is okay with you and I’m sorry you got the feeling that the time and effort you put into this thread was not appreciated.
It’s BECAUSE you were so diligent about updating the Recipe Index and Request list, that it became a source of worry to Posters on this thread when weeks went by and there wasn’t a word. The concern was more about your well being than anything else.
However, the success of the thread also meant that pages of recipes were being posted and it was becoming difficult to keep track of it all without any updates. Offering to help was simply a way of taking some of the burden off your shoulders. We all get busy and real life interferes, so it should not be construed as a criticism if someone offers their assistance (which I did, when I offered to update the index and request list). I apologize if this came across as offensive because it was not meant to be.
I don’t know about the other comments you posted, but I don’t actually see the problem in considering suggestions for improving the usability of the index or letting people use whatever sources they have for getting recipes. If we’re here to share recipes from a place we all love, why can’t we work together to make it as user friendly and informative as possible? If you’re looking for that “special Disney cocktail recipe you had on your honeymoon” you probably don’t want to wade through 2000+ posts to find it.
Maybe I’ve missed something here, but I don’t see repeated bickering about the “order of recipes or recipes not being spotlighted”. I see people who have a passion for good food, cooking and collecting some of the most delicious recipes in the world – namely Disney recipes. I hope we can all keep doing that and I also hope that this continues to be a great thread. We’ve already got the best collection of Disney recipes anywhere online and the credit goes to you, llyninpa, for starting this thread and coming up with the idea of an index – which other similar threads don’t have. That’s what sets this thread apart and why I love it.
It’s good to see you back and let’s all get back to having a good time posting & comparing Disney recipes!

Cooking Method
Remove the shanks from the marinade. In a large sauce pot, heat 1 tablespoon
of olive oil and sear all sides of the shanks to a deep golden brown. Add
the marinade to cover the shanks 3/4 of the way and bring to a simmer. Cover
the pot with a lid or foil. Place the pot in a 300f. oven and allow to cook
for four to six hours or until tender. Upon completion of cooking, remove
the shank from the liquid and keep warm. Place the marinade in a small sauce
pot on the stove over medium heat and bring to a simmer. Reduce to sauce
consistency. Adjust the seasoning as needed.
* Do not over reduce the sauce as it will become salty due to the soy sauce
content.
Tempura Batter
4 ounces All Purpose Flour
2 tablespoons Corn Starch
2 tablespoons Baking Powder
1 teaspoon Sesame Oil
1 ounce Lime Juice, fresh squeezed
1 pinch Cayenne Pepper
Salt to taste
Tempura Method
Combine all dry ingredients and mix well. Incorporate the oil and lime
juice. Adjust the consistency with water. Immerse the green onions into the
batter to thoroughly coat. Deep fry the onions at 350f. until golden brown.
Reserve warm.
Presentation
In a medium sauté pan, heat two tablespoons whole butter until it is lightly
brown. Add the toasted sesame seeds and orzo. Toss until hot and adjust the
seasoning as needed. Place the orzo in the center of the dish. Place the
veal shank on the bed of orzo and ladle the sauce over the top to glaze.
Garnish the dish with the Tempura onion and rosemary sprig.

Thanks so much for those 2 new recipes GoofysMama! The Veal Shanks had been a long standing request. Equally long standing has been the request for the braised short ribs from Jiko.
Does anyone have the short rib recipe from Jiko. My wife absolutely loved this dish. Thanks!
A big thanks to new Jiki Chef Brian Piasecki who took the time to write the following:

BBQ-Braised Beef Short Ribs
Jiko, Animal Kingdom Lodge
Chefs Note: Below are the bullet point to actually make the recipe - ours varies just a bit because of the large quantities that we produce, but overall this will yield you a great product. Every time you make them it may differ a bit based on the amount you produce and the flavor you want. - Chef Brian Piasecki.
1. Season the beef short ribs by rubbing them well with olive oil, salt and black pepper
2. Sear them just to brown them in a heavy bottomed pan at high heat (careful - this will be a little messy and the hot grease will pop out of the pan and can burn you - wear long sleeves!!!)
3. Place the seared ribs into an oven-proof roasting pan that has a tight fitting lid.
4. Along with the ribs, place your liquid, enough to cover 2/3rds of the meat, (Jiko has used beef broth, red wine, Tamarind sauce, thin BBQ sauce with ground Kenyan coffee etc.), 1-2 large diced onions, and 8-10 whole garlic cloves. Place the lid on it securely and place it in a 275 degree oven for about 7 hours. It is important not to rush the cooking time because the long, slow heat is the key to these being very flavorful and tender.
5. When done (the meat will separate easily from the bones with just the touch of a fork), carefully remove them from the liquid so they do not fall apart and transfer the cooking liquid to a saucepan and reduce by half. Remove from the heat, with a stick blended (hand burre mixer - you can also use a blender but the liquid is very hot) puree the sauce with the onions and garlic as this will assist in the thickening of the sauce. Continue to reduce if it is to thin or not the consistency that you would like.
6. Pour the sauce over the ribs either on individual plates, or on a family sized platter and enjoy!
Jiko serves this over an Idaho and Sweet Potatoes mash.

Recipe Reviews:
Roma Tomato Sauce (p. 128) - a slightly sweet, basic tomato sauce that worked well on pasta and as a pizza sauce.
Sicilian Pizza (F&W Festival) - I used the Roma tomato sauce and used the dough setting on the bread machine for the crust. Homemade pizza is SO much better than store bought and this one was simple but yummy - with lots of mozzarella.
Apple Vinaigrette (Boma version below). I've never had apple vinaigrette and this one is very thick with the grated apple. It's different and interesting but not something I'd make on a regular basis.
Apple Vinaigrette
from Boma, Animal Kingdom Lodge (from the DISNEY magazine
Yield: 10 servings
1 ¼ cups Olive oil
½ cup Lemon juice, fresh squeezed
1 ½ each fresh Lemon zest
1/3 cup Cider vinegar
2 each Apple, pureed
1 T. Dijon mustard
To taste Kosher salt
To taste Fresh ground black Pepper
Peel and shred about two apples through the mandoline and put in a stainless steel bowl with the Dijon Mustard. Whisk in the cider vinegar and the lemon juice, and slowly add in the olive oil. Stir in the fresh grated lemon zests and mix well. Adjust the seasonings with Kosher salt and fresh ground black pepper.

Since we're posting slow braised shank recipes, here is a favorite from Napa Rose - apparently "unbelievably rich and delicious".
Wine Country Slow Braised Lamb Shank
Napa Rose Restaurant, Disney's Grand Californian Hotel(from Cooking with Mickey 2004)
6 servings
6 Lamb shanks
Salt and black pepper, to taste
10 garlic cloves
2 Tbsp Canola oil
1 Onion, julienned
2 Carrots, julienned
2 Celery stalks, julienned
2 Cups good red wine
4 Cups Veal or lamb demi-glacé
2 Cups Water
1/3 C Chopped sundried tomatoes
2 Tbsp. kalamata olives, pitted and chopped
1 tsp. Anchovies
½ bunch Thyme sprigs
½ bunch fresh sage
Heavily season lamb shanks with salt and black pepper heavily and allow to sit for 30 minutes.
Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.
Saute garlic in canola oil, in a large braising pan. Bring up to heat, medium, while stirring garlic constantly. Add onions, carrots and celery and continue to sauté until brown. Deglaze with red wine and add demi-glace and water. Bring to a simmer.
In a separate pan, sauté seasoned lamb shank to a nice brown. Add them to the braising pot of liquid and vegetables. Make sure that lamb shanks are covered with liquid or they will dry out.
Place braising pan in the pre-heated oven and cook uncovered for 2 hours or until very tender. The meat should be falling off of the bone. The liquid should have reduced by half. However, be careful that liquid does not reduce too fast; if it does, add a little more water while shanks are cooking.
Serve with the vegetables and the braising liquid in a large pasta bowl or chop plate.
Lamb shanks go great with red wine, especially cabernet.

I've been finishing up with reading the thread and going through the index. I'm finally caught up & will be fixing the formatting in the next couple of days. I found quite a few recipes that had been posted more than once...the same version. Starting around page 105/106 I began deleting the duplicate recipes, if the recipe was the only thing in the post - after verifying that the recipes were identical. Please don't take it personally if some of your posts have been deleted - it was just an effort to keep the thread running a bit longer since threads get locked at 5000 posts. (We were about halfway there.) To that end, I'm going to comment on several things I ran across that I didn't see answered all in this post. (In the future, you might want to consider posting multiple recipes in a single post instead of giving each their own. Try using bold on the name of the recipe to make it stand out.)
Regarding Artist Point's Smoky Portobello Soup
Do you think that a bit of Liquid Smoke would do the same thing? I don't have a smoker, even though I know that I could rig something up in my grill.
OK Im sure I read that you can smoke things by wrapping them in foil and lying them on top of a saucepan with wood chips and boiling water in but not sure how easy it would be to do this with mushrooms. Ive seen it done with chicken and as long as the pan was small it would work.
I often add Liquid Smoke to things because DH does the grilling & he doesn't "want to mess with all that". :confused3 It's just easier than arguing. ;) I can tell you that while we really enjoy the flavor, it's not quite the same. I think the kind of wood chips used really does make a difference. The few times I got DH to try it we used a somewhat different method than Gismo mentioned: Soak wood chips overnight. Place them in a foil pan (or you can make a foil pouch with holes on top). Preheat one side of the gas grill. Once heated, turn down one side & place foil pan/pouch on the lava rocks. Place what you want smoked on the cold side of the grill, close the lid & wait. You could also refer to page 123, post 1831. There is a kind of "How To Guide" to smoking things.
Regarding F&W Festival's Ripe Plantain Casserole
<snip>I have no idea how to ripen plantains, either. I've also tried to wait for them to ripen faster in a brown bag, but with no luck. They are definitely hardy things! Anyone know how to make plantains ripen faster?
I Googled ripening plantains faster & found this advice: "Put it in a bag that contains oranges or other citrus fruits...Speeds up ripening drastically. Also in the caribbean we wrap in newspapers and place under the bed...lol
I guess it's generally warm under there or something...but I've seen people do it..."
Regarding F&W Festival's Pierogi with Kielbasa
And for the kielbasa, slicing it like that before grilling will dry it out. If you want to grill it buy a one pound ring, cut it at the bend and then slice open lengthways. Quickly grill and then slice into bite size pieces.
We always cut our kielbasa before grilling. I cut the "ring" into 6 pieces & then cut those in half lengthwise. We all prefer it that way...unless DH isn't paying attention & it burns. LOL You just have to be careful that it doesn't flare up as the grease drips. He pretty much always grills with the lid open. I don't like greasy foods & this way I can eat the kielbasa. During the winter I have to make something else for me if I pan-fry kielbasa for everyone else.
Regarding Hollywood & Vine's Root Beer Sweet Potatoes Sauce
Also, I found this recipe on a website.
Has anyone ever tried to make these? I'm thinking about making this with a roasted pork loin on Wednesday night.
FWIW: I don't believe that recipe is an "official" recipe, but is a copycat or clone. I found that recipe on Copykat.com a number of years ago. The amounts were somewhat different though.
Root Beer Sweet Potatoes Sauce
from Hollywood & Vine, source: Copykat.com
1 qt rootbeer
1 c bourbon
1 oz lemon juice
6 oz water
3 oz corn starch
2 oz butter
pinch of ground cloves
Mix corn starch with water, set aside. Bring all other ingredients to a boil in a pot. Add corn starch mixture. Sauce is now ready to be poured on sweet potatoes. Slice fresh sweet potatoes in 1/2" circles, bake in 350 degree oven until soft. Remove from oven, pour glaze over and they are ready to serve.
[My comments: DS loved these potatoes & was really excited to have them at home. He thought they tasted the same. I can't say one way or the other as I didn't have them due to the sugar content. I didn't peel the potatoes before baking them - I detest peeling sweet potatoes. LOL It only took a second to peel the skin off once the slices were baked & I poured the sauce over at that point.]
Regarding Boma's Butternut Squash Soup
Last night I made the Butternut Squash Soup from Boma <snip> I think the lemon is a mistake.
Update: When I reheated the soup I added the juice of one blood orange, more brown sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg and DS and I liked it better. Mom prefers the sour version and wants the recipe, LOL.
I just wanted to point out that there is a fall version of this version as well. As you can see this version calls for sugar, but no lemon. The spices this one calls for would make it a bit sweeter tasting as well, I think.
BUTTERNUT SQUASH SOUP-Fall version
Boma – Flavors of Africa, Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge
Yield: 8 servings
3 oz Unsalted Butter
11 oz Butternut Squash, cut in chunks
To taste Salt and Pepper
8 oz Water
8 oz Heavy Cream
8 oz Milk
1 oz Sugar, adjust if needed
1 tsp Ginger
1 tsp Nutmeg
1 tsp Cinnamon
1 tsp Coriander
1 Tbl Cornstarch
Water
3 oz American Cheese
1. In a small pot, melt the butter and pour over the squash. Season squash with salt and pepper and roast in 325 oven for 45 minutes.
2. In a kettle, mix squash with water. Add heavy cream and milk and puree. Add sugar, ginger, nutmeg, cinnamon, and coriander.
3. Make a slurry with the cornstarch and add to the soup.
4. Add the American cheese and continue mixing until smooth.
5. Adjust seasoning.

This is often the case with recipes centered on produce. Often, the chef will make two versions (or more) to compensate for natural seasonal flavor fluctuations in the produce. Take tomatoes for instance, a summer tomato has tons of natural flavor where fall and winter tomatoes tend to be sort of bland. If making a soup based on tomatoes the recipe for fall and winter tomatoes would have to have some changes to compensate for this lack of natural flavor you get from summer harvests. I would not go through the effort of making two different recipes, but I would just offer the recipe when the season is prime for the item being used.
Funny thing to think about, dairy and meat also have "seasons". The product can have tremendous flavor differences based on the diet of the animals being slaughtered or milked. Just a little trivia for everyone.

Thats what I was saying. Cutting the kielbasa into larger pieces instead of the little circles will keep it from drying out so much. I don't know anybody who would take the time to try and slice it and grill it the way the recipe states. :laughing:
Personally, I like mine steamed or baked, but the DH likes his grilled or pan fried. I'll eat it any way its cooked, even cold out of the fridge.
RE: the Rootbeer Sweet Potatoes the recipe originally posted is the one I've seen listed on a couple of sites and not marked as clones and using the early times whiskey and brown sugar.

Sour apple martinis are big-time right now. Every bartender's got a version.
Most of the time it's just straight vodka shaken up with sour apple schnapps
and ice. With a super-smooth, high-end vodka this is a cherished cocktail.
Add a couple other ingredients in there, like sweet & sour mix and
lemon-lime soda, and you experience the House of Blues.
1. Put a handful of ice in a martini glass so that it chills while you mix.
2. Add another handful of ice to a shaker
3. Add the vodka, schnapps, sweet & sour mix, and Sprite to the shaker and

Sweet Pizza with Vanilla Olive Oil
Palo, Disney Cruise Line
3 c Plain Flour
½ Tbl Yeast
1 Tbl Salt
½ c Olive oil
1 ¾ c water
¾ c Sugar
2 Mango (thinly sliced with the skin on)
1 Vanilla pod
2 c Raspberries
1 c Blueberries
8 Tbl Toasted Almonds
1 c Mascarpone cheese
8 Tbl Mint (shredded and ready to use)
1. Sieve the flour, place in a mixing bowl, add the dried yeast and salt, make a well in the center and gradually mix in the oil and ¼ cup of water, mix until a smooth dough has been formed. Let rest for 3 hrs.
2. Add ½ cup of water to a pot, add ½ cup of sugar, boil together to make syrup. When syrup is ready and hot dip the mango in for 2-3 seconds to blanche.
3. Split the vanilla pod and extract the seeds, add to the syrup. Allow to cool slightly, when cool mix in 1/3 cup of olive oil.
4. Add 2 cup of raspberries to small pot, add ¼ cup of sugar and 1 cup of water, boil together for 2 minutes, liquidize the mix and then strain in a fine strainer. Set aside to cool.
5. When the dough has been rested cut into 8 even sized pieces, roll into a ball and allow to rise in a warm place until the mix has doubled in size-when doubled in size knock the mixture back, on a lightly floured surface roll the dough into a even sized round pizza shape. Mark the dough all over with a fork and place onto an oven tray or pizza ring.
6. Brush some of the cooled raspberry sauce over the pizza dough, arrange 3 slices of mango on top of the pizza, coat some of the berries with the syrup and sprinkle over the pizza, bake in oven at 350 f for 4 minutes.
7. Take the pizza from the oven, sprinkle the toasted almonds on top of the pizza. Spread the mascarpone cheese around the top of the pizza, sprinkle with the shredded mint leaves. Cut into four even sized pieces and drizzle with the olive oil syrup, place onto the center of a plate.

Root Beer Sweet Potatoes Sauce
I have a very slightly different version - supposedly authentic but I can't vouch for it.
Root Beer Bourbon Sweet Potatoes
Hollywood and Vine, Hollywood Studios
Fresh California Sweet Potatoes, peeled & sliced in 1/2" rounds
4 cups root beer
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 cup bourbon
Pinch ground cloves
3/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup margarine
6 tablespoons corn starch mixed with 3/4 c water
Bake or roast sweet potatoes at 350 degrees F. (preheated) until soft. Meanwhile, combine lemon juice, root beer, bourbon, cloves, brown sugar and margarine in saucepan. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes. Blend corn starch with 3/4 cup water. Add to mixture in saucepan and stir until slightly thick. Pour over sweet potatoes.
I think the version of the Boma Butternut Squash soup you posted, piratesmate, seems more like what they serve the restaurant then the version they put into the Delicious Disney cookbook. I made the recipe from the cookbook, and my reviews were that it tasted way to sour - at least for me. The restaurant version has a sweet taste.
The Sweet Pizza with Vanilla Olive Oil you posted is slightly different in the Cookbook version. I'll post so you can compare. The sugar amounts differ, the mango is peeled and the method is slightly different.

¾ cup Almonds, toasted
¼ cup shredded fresh mint leaves
1. Sieve the flour, place in a mixing bowl, add the dried yeast and salt, make a well in the center and gradually mix in the oil and ¼ cup of water, mix until a smooth dough has been formed. Let rest for 3 hrs.
2. Boil water and 1 cup sugar together in a medium saucepan for about five minutes to make syrup. When syrup is ready, dip the mangoes in for five seconds to launch, and remove, using a slotted spoon.
3. Extract the seeds from the vanilla bean and add to the syrup allow to cool slightly. Once cool, mix in the olive oil.
4. Add 2 cup of raspberries to small pot, add ¼ cup of sugar and 1 cup of water, boil together for 2 minutes, liquidize the mix and then strain in a fine strainer. Set aside to cool.
5. When the dough has been rested cut into 8 even sized pieces, roll into a ball and allow to rise in a warm place until the mix has doubled in size. When doubled in size, On lightly floured surface, roll the dough into an even sized round pizza shaped, about 14 inches in diameter. Mark the dough all over with a fork and place onto an oven tray or pizza ring.
6. Using a pastry brush, coat dough with a thin layer of syrup. Bake in a preheated oven for about 10 minutes, until dough is cooked but not very brown. Cool slightly before proceeding. Spread the mascarpone cheese evenly over the pizza dough. Spread the raspberry sauce over the mascarpone cheese. Arrange slices of mango on top the pizza in a spiral. Coat the blueberries with the syrup and sprinkle over the pizza.
Reduce oven heat to 350°F and bake for about 5 minutes, until mixture is set and dough is slightly more browned.
Remove pizza from the oven and sprinkle the toasted almonds on top of the pizza.
Garnish with a shredded mint. Drizzle with the olive oil syrup and cut into eight wedges for serving.
apostolic4life - you made an interesting point about tomatoes. The tomatoes we eat today bear very little resemblance to the "original" tomatoes that originated in Central America. Early accounts from Europeans describe it as being very acidic - and it was not smooth and round the way it is today.
I'm still transcribing the entire "Cooking with Mickey and the Disney Chefs, 2004", because I plan to give the cookbook to my niece for her birthday. I haven't been posting all the recipes, but will post these from the Cruise Line section:
Eggs Benedict
Disney Cruise Line
Yields: 6 servings
Hollandaise Sauce
2 cups clarified butter (below)
1 whole shallot, finely chopped
3 black peppercorns, cracked
2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
3 egg yolks
Salt, to taste
1 to 2 drops Tabasco sauce
Clarified Butter
Put 6 sticks of butter in saucepan over medium heat, just to melt, then reduce heat to medium low and simmer, skimming top occasionally, for 20 to 30 minutes, until the solids are completely separated from the butter. The solids will be at the bottom and the clarified butter on top. 6 sticks of butter yields about 2 cups clarified butter.
1. Add 1 tablespoon clarified butter to a sauté pan. Add the shallots and sauté until translucent. Add the cracked black peppercorns and the white wine vinegar. Cook until liquid is reduced by half.
2. Put the egg yolks in a stainless steel bowl. Strain the white wine vinegar into the bowl. Place over a double boiler. Using a figure 8 motion, gradually whisk the rest of the clarified butter in a slow stream, to a thick emulsion. Add salt and Tabasco sauce to taste.
Poached Eggs
6 cups water
1 tablespoon white vinegar
12 fresh eggs
1. Bring the 6 cups of water and the 1 tablespoon vinegar to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to a simmer. Crack the eggs into the water, 1 egg at a time, and cook until the egg white is firm and the yolk is still runny.
2. Gently remove from the saucepan with a slotted spoon, and strain any excess liquid.
To serve:
6 English muffins
12 pieces Canadian bacon
2 tablespoons chopped chives
1. Split an English muffin and lightly toast on both sides
2. Keep the Canadian bacon in a little simmering water, or sauté briefly.
3. Place the 2 English muffin halves in the center of a plate with one piece of Canadian bacon on top of each. Cover the eggs with the Hollandaise Sauce, and garnish with the chopped chives.
Cooks Note: be sure to cook the Hollandaise sauce over hot, but not boiling, water. This rich Eggs Benedict is a favorite for brunch in restaurants on both Disney cruise ships. The Hollandaise is the tricky part. Be sure to stir the sauce constantly and add the melted butter slowly - a whisk is the best tool. The sauce must be stirred constantly, and a wooden spoon or wire whisk is the best tool. This is good served with a mimosa - sparkling wine or champagne mixed with freshly squeezed orange juice.
Mozzarella and Tomato Salad
Palo, Disney Cruise Lines (from Cooking with Mickey, 2004)
Yield: 4 servings
8 Tbsp. balsamic vinegar
4 Tbsp. Extra virgin olive oil
4 cups mixed greens
8 oz fresh mozzarella cheese, sliced into 1/4" rounds
4 plum tomatoes, quartered and seeded
4 Tbsp. Basil pesto (can be purchased at the grocery store)
1 tsp. chopped fresh chives
4 chives, cut in half, for garnish
Sea salt, to taste
Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1. Mix the balsamic vinegar with the olive oil in a small bowl.
2. Toss the greens with half of the balsamic vinaigrette and portion onto 4 plates.
3. Place the mozzarella on top of the greens. Lay the tomatoes on top of the mozzarella. Add pesto and drizzle remaining vinaigrette onto cheese and tomatoes. Sprinkle with chopped chives. Place the lengthwise-cut chives on top of the salad. Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste.
Cooks Note: this Chef recommends balsamic vinegar from Italy's Modena region, aged at least 8 years. This refreshing salad is best when ripe summer tomatoes are in season. For maximum flavor, chill the greens, but keep the tomatoes and mozzarella at room temperature.
Wild Mushroom Risotto
Palo, Disney Cruise Line (from Cooking with Mickey, 2004)
Yield: 6 – 8 servings
1 ounce dried porcini mushrooms
3 cups vegetable stock
4 cups chicken stock
2 cups sliced fresh mushrooms, any variety
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon butter
1 medium onion, chopped
1 medium leek, white part chopped
1 garlic clove, minced
4 tablespoons chopped Italian parsley
1 pound Arborio rice
2/3 cup white wine
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Fresh basil leaves, for garnish
1. Please porcinis in a bowl and cover with boiling vegetable stock. Steep for 30 minutes. Remove mushrooms with a slotted spoon; set aside. Strain stock through a fine sieve and add to chicken stock.
2. Sauté fresh mushrooms and 1 tablespoon of oil in a skillet until tender; set aside.
3. Melt butter and remaining tablespoon of olive oil in a large pan. Add onion, leeks, and garlic, and cook over medium heat until the onions are transparent. Add 2 tablespoons of parsley and the rice, and stir to coat.
4. Add the wine, and stir until it is evaporated. Then add mushrooms and stir, reduce heat, and add a ladle of chicken stock.
5. Stir the rice until the liquid is absorbed, add another ladle of stock, and continue in this manner until all the stock has been added and rice is tender but firm.
6. Remove from heat, and add Parmesan and remaining parsley. Season with salt and pepper and garnish with fresh basil.
Cooks Note: try a variety of wild mushrooms, including chanterelle, shiitake, Portobello and oyster for a nutty, earthy flavor. Risotto takes patience, as you must continue to stir and add liquid - be sure to use Italian Arborio rice.
Baked Clams with Sun-Dried Tomatoes
Captains Gala Dinner, Disney Magic Ship
Yield: 4 servings
Clams
24 fresh littleneck clams (6 per portion)
1 cup white cooking wine
1 cup fish stock
3 shallots, finely diced
1/4 cup unsalted butter
2 garlic cloves, crushed
Sun-Dried Tomato Mixture
1/3 cup coarse breadcrumbs
3 tablespoons reserved clam broth
1/4 cup sun-dried tomatoes, packed in olive oil, finely chopped
2 tablespoons finely chopped Italian parsley
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter
1 large egg
1/2 teaspoon coarse salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Wash the fresh clams thoroughly in cold water, removing any excess growths on the outer shells. Place in an 8-quart pot with lid. Add the white wine, fish stock, shallots, butter, and garlic, and seal the pot with a lid. Place on medium heat, so that the clams gradually open through steaming (this should take no longer than 5 minutes).
When clams have opened, strain off the broth and refrigerate. Save 3 tablespoons of broth for the mixture. Remove the clams from the shell, retaining the bottom shells for later.
Preheat the oven to 375°F. Place the breadcrumbs in a bowl and add 3 tablespoons of the reserved clam broth; gradually mix together. Roughly chop the grilled clams and mix with the breadcrumbs. Add the remaining ingredients and mix well. Using a teaspoon, spoon the mixture into the reserved bottom shells until the mixture is just above the lip of each shell. Place on a baking sheet. Cover and refrigerate until ready to bake.
To Serve: preheat the oven to 375°F. Bake the clams for 10 minutes or until golden brown. Garnish with a quartered lemon.
Cooks Note: this recipe is often requested by guests. The number of clams you serve per-person varies depending on the clams’ size.
Soft-Shell Crab Tempura
Lumière’s, Animator’s Palette, Parrot Cay, DCL (From Cooking with Mickey and the Disney Chefs, 2004)Yield: 4 servings
Ginger and Soy Sauce
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon minced, peeled, fresh gingerroot
1 tablespoon diced onion
1/2 cup light soy sauce
1/2 cup vegetable stock
1 tablespoon cornstarch, mixed with 2 tablespoons water
Place olive oil, ginger, and onion in a heavy-bottomed pan. Sauté gently until the onion is translucent. Add soy sauce and vegetable stock. Cook over medium-high heat until liquid is reduced by one-third. Whisk in cornstarch and water mixture to thicken slightly; set aside.
Tempura
1 box tempura batter mix
5 cups vegetable or peanut oil, for frying
1 packet glass noodles
4 soft-shell crabs
Cornstarch
1 lemon, quartered
1 green onion, cut into 2 -inch -long pieces and fanned at the top, for garnish (optional)
Prepare tempura batter according to package directions. Let stand for a few minutes. Heat oil to 350°F in a deep-fat fryer or 3-quart, heavy-bottomed saucepan. Pull the glass noodles apart. Place into deep fat fryer for 4 -5 seconds, or until the noodles float back up to the top. Remove noodles with slotted spoon and place on paper towels to drain.
Coat the soft-shell crabs with the cornstarch and shake off the excess. Dip the crabs into the batter and shake off the excess. Place crabs into deep-fat fryer and cook until golden and the crabs float on the surface of the oil. Place on paper towels to drain.
Put noodles and crabs on four plates; garnish with lemon and green onion. Serve with sauce.
Cook's notes: When soft-shell crabs are in season, this decadent, deep-fried version is on the menu on the DCL. Though the shell is soft and edible, there are parts of the soft-shell crab that should be removed before cooking. Ask your seafood market to prepare the crabs for you by removing inedible parts.

Does Boma actually serve them that way? Or were you looking to see if someone had adapted the recipe?

Actually the zebra domes from the mara. Someone on the AKL thread mentioned that the Z.D. at the mara doesnt contain any alcohol and coffee.

Here is the CousCouse Salad, Bean Dip That was used on Sat. Nights Middle Eastern Night at the Poly Concierge Lounge some years ago. Recipes supplied by Chef Dick. They were hand written. This is what was used for the CM's to follow, sorry but there are no written instructions. This was used to serve large crowds, so adjust accordingly. I'm sure some of our 'resident chefs' can help with questions.

2 cups Garlic Olive Oil

The index is updated to here. I've also added a separate index listing the recipes by restaurant.
Also, please take a moment to check the Request Index to see if you have any of these recipes. For anyone motivated to send requests on behalf of others, it would probably be best to send them soon as they tend to get busy over the summer & aren't able to get to you as quickly as other times of year.
I was wondering if anyone knew how to make the Salad dressing at Artist Point.
It reminds me of a buttermilk ranch mixed with a green goddess (that might be what its called) but I know its a dressing that you can get on the regular salads.
does anyone know?
if so, thank you!!!
I don’t think this meets your request above, but it’s pretty good anyway. ;)

piratesmate - I LOVE how you've organized index. It's great to be able to look either by course (i.e. in case I need inspiration for a dinner entrée) or by restaurant - in case I'm adding new recipes. I found it so helpful tonight when trying to figure out what to transcribe from the 2007 Food and Wine Festival cookbook - especially the alphabetical listing. WOW!!
I've come across several Disney recipe threads but what sets this one apart and ensures that it will have a long life span is the index and the dedicated participants we have here. Thanks for all the work you're doing :worship:
Since there was an earlier request made for the recipes from the 2007 Food and Wine Festival Cookbook, the ones below complete all the recipes for South America.
In the opinion of some of the food bloggers, Argentina had the best all-around samples, so we'll start with that.
The Spicy Beef Empanadas are on page 8. The Dulce de Leche is on page 36. And the 3rd dish was:
Grilled Beef Sirloin with Chimichurri Sauce
Epcot Food and Wine Festival, Argentina
Serves 4
1 pound beef sirloin
Coarse sea salt
For the Chimichurri Sauce
1 large white onion, finely chopped
1/4 cup finely chopped parsley
1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh thyme
2 tablespoons finely chopped garlic
1/2 teaspoon saffron threads, dissolved in 1 tablespoon water
1 cup white vinegar
1 cup olive oil
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
For the Mashed Potatoes
1 pound boiling potatoes, peeled and quartered
1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened and cut into small cubes
1 teaspoon finely chopped garlic
1 cup heavy cream
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
1. Prepare charcoal grill for the beef.
2. To make the sauce, combine all the ingredients in a mixing bowl and season to taste with salt and pepper. Set aside.
3. Cook the potatoes in a large pan of boiling salted water for 15 minutes or until tender. Drain the potatoes and transfer them to a mixing bowl. Coarsely mash the potatoes with a fork, incorporating the butter, garlic, cream and salt and pepper to taste. Set aside and keep warm.
4. For the beef, rub the meat all over with the coarse salt and grill over a charcoal heat for 8 to 10 minutes or until desired doneness. Allow to rest for 10 minutes and then carve into thin slices.
5. If to serve, divide the potatoes and beef among four plates and surf the Chimichurri Sauce on the side.
The 3 dishes for Chile were: Tomatican con Manchego (p. 81) and
Camarón con *Pebre (Sauteed Shrimp with Cilantro Sauce)
Epcot Food and Wine Festival, Chile
Serves 4
For the Pebre Sauce
2 garlic cloves
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoon sherry vinegar
4 seeded aji chilies or 1 habanero chili
1/2 cup coarsely chopped white onion
1 cup packed cilantro leaves
1/3 cup water
Sea salt to taste
Freshly ground black pepper to taste
For the Shrimp
1 pound of raw tiger shrimp, peeled and de-veined
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 teaspoons chili powder
Pebre Sauce
Purée the garlic and salt with a pestle in a mortar. Whisk in the olive oil and vinegar and set aside. Place chilies, onions, cilantro and water in a blender; pulse until minced, but not puréed, about 10 seconds. Stir in the oil and vinegar mixture. Cover and set aside for 2 hours to develop flavors.
For Shrimp
heat the olive oil and a large sauté pan. In a large bowl, toss the shrimp with the chili powder and transfer them to the hot oil. Sear the shrimp for 1 to 2 minutes on each side, or until firm and lightly colored. Taste the sauce for seasoning and divide it among four small serving bowls. Divide the shrimp into four portions and place them on top of the Pebre Sauce in each bowl.
*Pebre is the sauce of choice for Chilean steaks. It is a mixture of fresh onions, tomatoes, cilantro, peppers, vinegar, and various spices.
Strawberry and Mango Salad with Cilantro
Epcot Food and Wine Festival, Chile
Serves 6
1 pound fresh strawberries, hulled and quartered
2 medium mangoes, peeled and cut into 1/2" cubes
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup orange juice
1 tablespoon key lime juice
2 tablespoons finely chopped cilantro
Combine the strawberries and mangoes in a large mixing bowl, cover and set aside. To make this year, combine the water, sugar, orange juice and key lime juice in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 5 - 10 minutes or until slightly reduced. Set aside to cool.
To serve, pour the cooled syrup over the fruit and stir in the cilantro.
Peru had Arroz con Pato (p. 64) and
Alfajores de Lúcuma (Lúcuma Cream with Peruvian Sugar Cookies)
Epcot Food and Wine Festival, Peru
Serves 6
For Lúcuma Cream
1 cup La Lechera Caramel
1 cup lúcuma pulp*
1 cup heavy cream
For the Alfajores Cookies
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/3 cup powdered sugar
pinch of salt
1/4 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
Preheat the oven to 350°F. In a large mixing bowl, combine the Lechera Caramel, and the lúcuma pulp until smooth. Whip heavy cream to form soft peaks and fold into the lúcuma mixture. Spoon the cream into 6 stemmed wine glasses and set aside in the refrigerator for 2 hours.
For the alfajores cookies, combine the flour, sugar and salt in a mixing bowl and work in the butter with a fork, just until a soft ball forms. Wrap the dough and chill it for 30 minutes. Roll out the dough on a floured surface to approximately 1/8 inch thickness. Cut 2-inch long triangles from the dough and transfer them to greased cookie sheets. Bake for approximately 10 minutes, or until golden brown.
To serve: insert to cookies on top of each serving of lúcuma cream.
* I saw and tasted lúcuma for the first time when i was in Peru 2 summers ago. It's an extremely popular fruit in Peru and there is no substitute as nothing tastes quite like it. It's a little like maple syrup with a strawberry glaze. I've ordered it here: Amigofoods.com This desert got top marks by all reports.
Causa de Cangrejo (Seasoned Mashed Potatoes with Crab Salad)
Epcot Food and Wine Festival, Peru
Serves 4
For the Potatoes
1 1/2 pounds yellow potatoes or Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and quartered
1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
1/4 cup Amarillo hot pepper paste
1/2 cup olive oil
2 tablespoons finely chopped garlic
Sea Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
For the Crabmeat
1 1/2 cup cooked crabmeat
1/4 cup finely diced red onion
1/4 cup finely diced red pepper
1/4 cup finely diced celery
1/4 cup sour cream
2 tablespoons Amarillo hot pepper paste" See salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
1. Drop the potatoes in a large pot of salted boiling water and boil them briskly until they are tender.
2. In the meantime, make a sauce by combining the lemon juice, hot pepper paste, olive oil, garlic, salt and pepper together with a whisk.
3. Drain the potatoes and mash them into a smooth purée with a fork. Beat in the sauce, a tablespoon at a time, and taste for seasoning.
4. Spread the mash mix out on a cookie sheet, about 1/2" thick, cover and set aside to cool.
5. For the crabmeat, combine all the ingredients together in a small mixing bowl. Chill in refrigerator for two to three hours to allow the flavors to develop.
6. To serve, at the firm potatoes into 2 1/2-inch long diamond shapes and place 2 pieces on each of 4 serving plates. To serve, but divide the crap into four portions and mound on top of the potato diamonds.
Tonight I made the Vegetable Curry (recipe below). I added a cubed chicken breast which needed to be used and left out the cilantro garnish. The coconut curry taste of the broth is good with just the right amount of spiciness. I'd make it again.
Vegetable Curry
Epcot's International Food & Wine Festival, India
Serves 6
2 large potatoes, peeled and diced into 2 inch cubes
2 tablespoons oil
2 red bell peppers seeded and coarsely chopped
1 large onion, thinly sliced

I'm glad you're enjoying the index. It's pretty easy to run it several ways because I have it stored in Excel. ;) I'm a compulsive computer geek. Could you tell? :lmao: :lmao:
These are the rest of my Wilderness Lodge recipes. Sources are noted when I have them written down.
ROASTED RED POTATOES
Artist Point, Wilderness Lodge

Chocolate Silk Bread Pudding
Artist Point at Disney's Wilderness Lodge
< Source> LuxuryDisneyGuide.com
Servings: 4
Bread Pudding
1 Qt Heavy Cream
3 Whole Eggs
¾ c Granulated Sugar
1/3 c Amaretto
16 oz Sourdough Bread (day old preferred)
4 oz Chocolate Ganache (refer to sub recipe)
1 2/3 c White Chocolate Shavings
¼ c Cocoa Powder
Chocolate Ganache
2½ oz Bittersweet Chocolate
¼ c Heavy Cream
Chocolate Silk Bread Pudding Topping
2 7/8 oz Almond Slices
3 5/8 oz Amaretto
2½ oz Brown Sugar
¾ lb Butter
1½ oz Water
Make the Chocolate Ganache:
Shave the chocolate and place into a bowl and set aside. Heat the cream to scalding, remove from heat and pour over chocolate and stir with a spoon until chocolate is completely melted. [Note: If the chocolate is not completely melted, place the bowl over a warm water bath and stir until chocolate melts. Keep stirring after taking bowl out of water bath to cool.] Set the chocolate ganache aside, along with the cocoa powder and white chocolate shavings.
Prepare the Bread Pudding:
In a 2 quart mixing bowl, combine sugar, eggs, heavy cream and amaretto together and mix well. Tear the sourdough bread into small pieces and then add the bread to the liquid and mix until the liquid is absorbed. Fold in the white chocolate. Divide the bread mixture into two equal parts. To one part, fold in
the ganache and cocoa powder.
Assemble the Bread Pudding:
Line a 10" cake pan with parchment paper.
To make the first layer:
Fill a 1 cup measuring cup half full with the white chocolate mixture - put directly in the center of the pan.
Fill the measuring cup half full with the white chocolate mixture - put it at the 12 o'clock position, another half cup at 3 o'clock, again at 6 o'clock and also at 9 o'clock. Fill the measuring cup half full with the dark chocolate mixture continue to put half cups in between the white chocolate sections. Gently pat the mixture to fill in the gaps.
To Make the Second Layer:
Follow the above procedure, but put the dark chocolate over the white chocolate. Tap the pan on the counter to evenly distribute the bread pudding in the pan. Place the cake pan in a water bath - do not let water go on top of the bread pudding, and do not let water evaporate completely while in the process of baking. Bake at 350 degrees for 1 to 1-1/2 hours or until bread feels firm. Remove from the oven and let rest for 10 to 15 minutes. Cut into desired portions and serve warm with the topping.
Prepare the Almond Topping while the Bread Pudding is Baking:
Sauté the almonds in butter. Combine all ingredients. Drizzle over the bread pudding. Serve and enjoy!
Yield: One 10" cake.

Looking for the key lime dressing from Coral Reef? Anyone?!
I had an awesome side dish at Coral Reef and would love the recipe. It was a blue cheese potato au gratin dish. It was incredible. Anyone???
Some old requests, in case those folks are still around:
Key Lime Vinaigrette - House Dressing at Coral Reef
Coral Reef, Epcot
Serves 8
*¼ cup key lime vinegar
½ cup olive oil
2 tablespoons of chopped basil
2 tablespoons of chopped parsley
2 tablespoons of chopped chives
Salt to taste
Pepper to taste
Dash of Tabasco sauce
1. Combine all ingredients and blend well. You can adjust the spices to your taste.
2. Store in a airtight container.
* Can be purchased online: Gourmet Vinegars (http://store.poshgourmet.com/vinegars.html)
These are the only Gratin Potatoes that have been on the menu, since at least Nov. 2007 - Grilled New York Strip Steak - Served with Potatoes Au Gratin and Beef Demi-glace. There is no mention of Blue Cheese but it would be easy to add the amount you want (about 1/2 - 3/4 cup) in step 3.
Gratin Potatoes
Coral Reef, Epcot
Serves 4-8
4 potatoes, sliced
1 small onion, chopped
1 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon thyme
1 teaspoon butter
Salt to taste
Pepper to taste
1. Mix cream with salt and pepper in a bowl.
2. Slice potatoes thinly and place directly in cream as you cut.
3. Toss with onions, mix well.
4. Arrange neatly in buttered small baking dish and pour remaining cream over the potatoes.
5. Cover with parchment paper and foil.
6. Bake in the oven at 350 degrees for 30 minutes or until tender.
7. Remove paper and foil, press down with another pan on top until cream starts to rise.
Regarding the Whispering Canyon recipes: I made the Herb Pesto and put it into cute glass jars with a label showing Mickey cooking; then gave it as gifts. It's very good and was popular with everyone. I made the Berry Cobbler last summer and here are my notes:
I made this July ’07 and had to use 2 cake pans (1 – 9” and another 12”) because I didn't have 6” pans. I doubled the amount of berries because they looked very sparse in the cake pan. If one makes this in 4 pans then ½ cup berries per dessert might work but I think more is better because there’s a fair amount of dough. My pans baked far longer than 15” (more like 45 – 55") and the edges were done well before the middle. The dessert tastes delicious. 4 portions would be a LOT per person.

Your above post, all I can say:worship: I wish I could figure out a 1/3 of it and I would feel like I was doing well.
Hi, tatania see your logged on while I'm posting this.
Any imput on the Key lime dressing?? Never had it and trying to get a feel for it's taste.

I never even heard of key lime vinegar before today and doubt it's something that would be carried here in the Pacific Northwest. I don't remember ever trying this dressing but then, it's been a while since I ate at Coral Reef. I'll definitely buy the vinegar however, the next time I see it. I'm headed to the Carolinas in August (with my sister and the kids) so perhaps they'd have it there.
Mediterranean Seafood Stew
It's a Small World Dinner, DCL (from Cooking With Mickey and the Disney Chefs, 2004)
Yield: 8 servings
1 cup chopped onion
2 tablespoons butter
1 garlic clove, crushed
1 sprig thyme, chopped
1 sprig tarragon, chopped
2 teaspoons turmeric
4 cups parboiled, long-grain rice, washed and ready to use
1 can (28 ounces) Italian plum tomatoes, chopped
1 1/2 tablespoons salt
6 cups water, divided
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup squid rings
16 jumbo shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 cup lobster meat, chopped
16 scallops
1 red bell pepper, diced
1 yellow bell pepper, diced
1 green bell pepper, diced
1 large onion, diced
1 pound chorizo sausage, cut into 1-inch pieces on an angle
16 mussels, scrubbed clean
1 pinch saffron
1 cup green peas, cooked
4 cups tomato sauce, warmed
Grated Parmesan cheese, for serving
1. Preheat the oven to 350°F
2. Sauté the chopped onion in butter in a large, heavy-bottomed saucepan until translucent. Add the garlic, thyme, tarragon, and turmeric.
3. Add the rice and mix until all the onion and herbs are combined. Add the plum tomatoes and salt. Gradually add approximately half the water. As the rice cooks, keep adding water until all has been used. Stir occasionally to prevent the rice from sticking to the base of the pan.
4. Meanwhile, in a separate pan, sauté separately in olive oil the squid, shrimp, lobster meat, and scallops. When all of the meat is cooked, set aside in a bowl. In the same pan, sauté the diced red, yellow, and green peppers and onion until tender; set aside in a bowl. Sauté the chorizo until cooked; set aside.
5. When the rice is nearly cooked, add the saffron and mix until all is combined and the rice begins to turn more yellow. Add the mussels. When the mussels open, add the lobster meat, the scallops, the squid, the sautéed vegetables, the peas, and half of the shrimp and chorizo.
6. To serve, mound the rice mixture onto a large serving platter. Ladle the warmed tomato sauce around the rice and garnish the top with the remaining shrimp and chorizo. Serve with grated Parmesan cheese.
A crisp Italian Pinot Grigio goes well with this.
Cooks Note: Guests at the "It's a Small World" always ask for this recipe. Don't let the long list of ingredients deter you. It takes a while to make, but the end result is a winner.

That recipe sounds so yummy! Wow! I think that's going to go on my list of things to try. :thumbsup2
I just Googled Key Lime Vinegar & wasn't surprised to see it come up in Amazon. However, I was shocked at what it would cost to get it! A 6.5 oz bottle would cost almost $9 and then another $7 for shipping!! It's too bad, because they have some other, awesome sounding vinegars...
cranberry
D'anjoy pear
Tequila lime
blueberry*
passion fruit balsamic*
*These two cost almost $10
ETA: I just checked another site (PoshGourmet) and their list sounds even better...like Blood Orange Vinegar!! The vinegar cost is slightly less, but shipping is comparable.
There's a specialty spice shop in the next town over where I get all my spices...super fresh! I've been after her for years to get online, but so far she only has a web site with a list of spices, teas & coffees...no prices & not all I can't imagine people actually contact her to order things with that setup. :confused3 Oh wait...there was a point to this. :blush: She has several flavored vinegars, including the strawberry needed for the version of LTT's Strawberry Vinaigrette that they sent to me. I'll have to check there for the key lime - I need to re-stock my spices anyway.
And thanks IggyLans for posting the alternate recipe! I'm able to adjust amounts easily enough, but sometimes the ingredients needed cause a problem. ;) The second version on page 8 is much more do-able in that respect. :thumbsup2

ok wait - I just reread and it says "serves 2"...so I think I'm confused...do I need 2 and 7/8 # of crushed tomato and 1 and 7/8# diced?:confused3 Sorry!!

Looks like you will need both. One for the body of the sauce and one for the piece that give it texture. Its really not that much as some tomatoes on their own can weigh a pound or more.

Sorry - I wasn't paying attention to my email notifications. :blush:
First, greeneyes is right: You'll need both types for texture & some tomatoes weigh very heavy.
But my other thought is that the sauce recipe probably makes more than is needed for 2 servings of this recipe. The recipe is exactly the same for the Penne Alla Vodka, but that one doesn't say how many servings it is. My first thought wasn't the amount of tomato, but the amount of onion. LOL But I'm allergic, so a half pound sounds like a LOT to me. ;)
I'm looking to see if I can find out more info on the sauce recipe. The Oak-Grilled Italian Sausage recipe appears to be only on the site I got it from, but the other one is on other sites.

I wish I could try all those cool sounding vinegars at the Posh Gourmet. is the strawberry vinaigrette really good? Maybe I'll look around for that today.
Regarding Mama Melrose recipes: it sounds like you have two that I don't think I have - so would like the Roasted Vegetable Pizza (sounds perfect now that I'm back on WW) and the Veal Osso Buco with Saffron Risotto. I don't eat veal because of how the calves are treated but may as well have the recipe for archival purposes.

:rotfl2: :rolleyes1 Sorry about that. I don't know why you couldn't follow my convoluted ramblings. :rolleyes: I was talking about the Strawberry Vinaigrette recipes. The recipe on page 7 is the one I have - it calls for Strawberry vinegar & strawberry melba. The recipe on page 8 says you can substitute red wine vinegar & uses frozen strawberries, but no melba.
I haven't tried it yet since I just found this thread a couple weeks ago, but plan to soon. I like raspberry vinaigrette & strawberries, so I figured I'll probably like this too. Plus, I can substitute Splenda for the sugar & greatly reduce the oil. Purchased low-fat dressings don't work for me as they're so high in sugar...gotta have something to make it thick I guess. :confused3
We don't eat veal either, but I'm sure you could substitute chicken for the veal. I mean there are recipes for both chicken & veal parmigiana as well as chicken or veal picatta, right? So why not? ;)
Roasted Vegetable Pizza
from Mama Melrose’s Ristorante Italiano - MGM
1 Pizza Crust/Flatbread
1 Tbl Basil pesto
1/8 c Sliced onions
1 Tbl Red Pepper (roasted)
1Tbl Green Pepper (roasted)
1/8 c Portabello Mushroom (roasted)
1 Tomato (sliced)
½ c Shredded Mozzarella Cheese
to taste Salt/Pepper
as needed flour
Stretch pizza crust to desired thickness, and randomly puncture with tip of knife to prevent crust from bubbling. Spread pesto evenly over crust leaving ¼" border. Top pesto with sliced tomatoes, then shredded cheese, season with salt and pepper. Top cheese with roasted vegetables. Place in 400 degree oven for 6-8 minutes or until crust is at desired crispness.
Note: Pita/flatbread/tortilla, or any flatbread may be substituted for pizza crust as an alternative option

Veal Osso Buco
Mama Melrose, Disney-MGM Studios
2 Tbl olive oil
3 1/8 lb veal shank
2 oz seasoned flour
5 1/3 oz celery, small diced
5 1/3 oz carrot, small diced
5 1/3 oz onion, small diced
1 Tbl garlic, minced
13 oz crushed tomatoes
1¼ c white wine
To taste Kosher salt
To taste Ground Black Pepper
Dry the veal shank and dredge in seasoned flour. Sear in olive oil. Reserve. Add onion, carrot, celery and garlic and sauté until caramelized. Return the veal shank to the vegetables, add remaining ingredients and braise until tender. Serve with Saffron Risotto.
Saffron Risotto
2 c chicken stock
2½ tsp whole butter
5 oz sweet onion, small dice
3.4 c Arborio rice***
2 2/3 oz white wine
1/8 pinch saffron
2 tsp grated Pecorino Romano cheese
¼ tsp Kosher salt
1/8 tsp ground black pepper
2 tsp Asiago cheese, shredded
Bloom saffron in white wine, reserve until needed. Bring chicken stock to a simmer, have ready. Sauté onions in butter until translucent. Add Arborio rice and sauté in butter until well coated, about 3-5 minutes. Add the white wine and saffron. Stir until all liquid is absorbed. Add the chicken stock in stages until 90 percent is absorbed. Add the Pecorino cheese, black pepper and salt as needed. Finish with Asiago cheese.
[NOTE: The amount of Arborio rice was copied, not re-typed from the original source. I'm guessing that it means ¾ cup and not "three point four" cups as there wouldn't be enough liquid to cook the rice otherwise.

...actually, you will probably be disappointed with the results if you use chicken for the Osso Buco. The slow braise that is used in the cooking process is meant for making tougher cuts more tender (the veal shank is a relatively tough cut of veal). If you were to use chicken breast it would probably get rubbery and tough.......the bones of a chicken would not hold up to the process either, they would turn to mush. If you have ever simmered chicken with bones for stocks or soups, I am sure you have seen what happens to chicken bones after long periods of being cooked in liquid........yuck for eating, but great for the resulting stock/broth. I would suggest using good cross cuts of beef or lamb shank with bone (bones add flavor) for the Osso Buco.

:thumbsup2
Good point if you're following directions. :rotfl: I would have just dredged boneless chicken, seared it quickly & then just cooked it all together to absorb the flavor where it says "braise until tender". I just glossed over that word "braise". I tend to forget that other people actually follow a recipe. :rolleyes1
As for the chicken bones...I know exactly what you mean! Someone gave me a recipe that called for bone-in chicken to be made in the crock pot. She'd made it for us once & the flavor was quite nice. It only called for 5 or 6 hours on LOW, but I missed that & put it in before leaving for work at 8:30. By the time I got home at 6 it was awful! You were supposed to stir cornstarch into the juices & serve it over the chicken, but the juices were full of the mealy remnants of the bones. :rolleyes: :scared: Now I just use boneless for everything. :lmao:
And since we were doing Mama Melrose recipes today...
Has anyone ever tried this one? I just can't imagine using 37 slices of bread! :eek: And why are you using white bread for Italian Bread Soup?!? :confused3 I would have expected it to call for Italian bread. (I realize it's probably because of the Italian sausage. ;))
Italian Bread Soup
Mama Melrose - Disney-MGM Studios
8 oz button mushrooms sliced
2 Tbl virgin olive oil
1 lb sweet Italian sausage - skinned & crumbled
8 oz yellow onion - small diced
8 oz stalk celery - small diced
12 oz can diced tomatoes with juice
5 qt chicken stock
To taste Kosher salt
To taste ground black pepper
37 slices white bread toasted
In a pot large enough to hold all ingredients, warm the olive oil over low heat. Add onion and sausage and fry gently, stirring frequently until onion is translucent. Add the celery, mushrooms, tomatoes, and chicken stock. Bring to a boil and season to taste with salt and pepper. Boil until flavorful, about 15 minutes.
At time of serving, add the toasted bread to bowl and pour hot soup over.

Sun-Dried Tomato and Roasted Garlic Spread
Mama Melrose - Disney-MGM Studios
¼ c garlic, roasted
1 c Kalamata olives
1½ Tbl balsamic vinegar
1/8 c basil, chiffonade*
8 oz sun-dried tomatoes, halved
½ tsp black pepper
¾ c olive oil
Soak olives in water to remove the salt brine flavor. While olives are soaking gather the rest of your ingredients. After soaking the olives for about an hour, drain and place all ingredients except the basil into a food processor. Blend until pureed. After it is mixed well, fold in the basil.
[*To create chiffonade, stack several leaves on top of one another, roll them tightly into a cigar shape, then use a sharp knife to thinly slice the roll. The leaves will unfurl as you slice them (pictured at right). Gradually move your fingers away from the knife as you slice farther down the roll.
Chiffonade usually refers to cutting into thin strips, whereas the term "julienne" refers to matchstick-size sticks.]

Good point if you're following directions. :rotfl: I would have just dredged boneless chicken, seared it quickly & then just cooked it all together to absorb the flavor where it says "braise until tender". I just glossed over that word "braise". I tend to forget that other people actually follow a recipe. :rolleyes1
Help me understand something.......if you are not concerned with following recipes, why collect them???? I guess my advice is for those who actually are looking to follow the directions written in the recipe. I was trying to give an idea to help people who want to follow the recipe but may have an aversion to a certain ingredient..........by simply searing off some chicken and simmering it in the sauce does not impart the deep rich flavor of the Osso Buco. Osso Buco's flavor comes from the slow braise which allows the flavor from the bone to infuse the meat and sauce; the Italian term "ossobuco" references the importance of bone marrow in the dish........can't duplicate that with seared chicken. Yes, you can make the sauce and add chicken, but it is no longer Osso Buco, it is more like a Chicken Cacciatore, not Osso Buco.

Sorry about that. I don't know why you couldn't follow my convoluted ramblings. I was talking about the Strawberry Vinaigrette recipes. The recipe on page 7 is the one I have - it calls for Strawberry vinegar & strawberry melba. The recipe on page 8 says you can substitute red wine vinegar & uses frozen strawberries, but no melba.
LOL, that was cute. I have to check my Strawberry Vinaigrette recipes and see what version I have.
Today I was working close to a gourmet shop (with gourmet type prices) and couldn't believe my eyes when I saw the exact same vinegars (Cuisine Perel) that Posh Gourmet was selling. They didn't have all the flavors but they had lots of the Key Lime vinegar. Now, I've never paid $13.59 for 6 1/2 ounces of vinegar, but decided this time I'd splurge. I ended up buying 2 Key Lime Vinegars, 1 Blood Orange vinegar (that won't even stretch to the recipe they have on the back which calls for 1 cup of vinegar) and a Raspberry Champagne vinegar. I saw cheaper vinegars that had juice added (stuff like "Balsamic vinegar with orange juice") but didn't know if they would be as good a quality.
Anyway, the Key Lime vinegar is very good and can be used on salad without oil. Ironically, the ingredient list on the back is: "white wine vinegar, white grape juice, cider vinegar, natural lime flavoring and natural lemon juice" - so it's just vinegar with juice added :lmao:
If you're interested, the ingredients on the Blood Orange Vinegar are orange juice, white wine vinegar, white grape juice, cider vinegar, natural orange extract and annatto (a coloring agent).
Of course, I had to try the recipe right away and unlike others :rolleyes1: I approach my recipes as if I'm doing a Ph.D. in chemistry. I follow instructions to the letter, unless they really makes no sense - in which case I'll improvise.
The Key Lime Vinaigrette tastes very good and different - thanks to the vinegar - and the key, as always, is to use top notch ingredients. The 6tablespoons chopped herbs seem a little much for the 3/4 cups of liquid because it makes for a very thick vinaigrette. I ended up making 1 cup of vinegar/oil mix instead. Because the vinegar is so good on its own, I would cut way back on the olive oil next time (or leave it out), to save on calories.
Thanks for posting the new recipes piratesmate and deekaypee. The Peas with the Ginger was new for me.
Spoodles Chef Tony Marotta did a podcast demonstrating the White Bean Moussaka they serve at Spoodles. The podcast is no longer up but did anyone catch the recipe? It's a very good vegetarian entree.
I've not made the Mama Melrose Bread Soup but had the real deal (Pomadora) last summer in Tuscany. It's a very thick soup and 37 slices bread sound about right for 5 quarts stock (enough for all the guests at MK). BTW, in Medieval times bread crumbs were used to thicken soups and sauces as there was no cornstarch or rice flour.
Here's a more scaled down recipe for the dish: Pomadora (http://rockyroadoflove.wordpress.com/2007/08/27/pomodora-italian-bread-soup/) and a simpler recipe on the Food Network (http://www.foodnetwork.com/food/recipes/recipe/0,1977,FOOD_9936_22392,00.html).
Lamb Chops with Asian Pear and Kiwi Salsa with Sweet Potato Purée
Epcot Food and Wine Festival 2004 - Chef Tony Marotta (currently of Spoodles) for the National Honey Board
Yield: 4 Servings
Sweet Potato Purée
4 lbs.sweet potatoes (about 5 medium)
¾ stick unsalted butter, softened
½ cup brown sugar
1-1/2 Tablespoons Southern Comfort
½ teaspoon freshly grated cinnamon
1 teaspoon kosher salt
Preheat oven to 400° degrees.
Line a baking sheet with foil or parchment.
Prick sweet potatoes in several places with a fork and bake on baking sheet in middle of oven until tender, 60-75 minutes.
When potatoes are just cool enough to handle, peel and put flesh in a stainless steel bowl.
Add butter and mix until just about smooth.
Add brown sugar, Southern Comfort, cinnamon, and kosher salt. Taste and adjust seasoning.
Cover tightly with foil to keep hot.
Lamb Chops
4 each rack of lamb (about 14 oz. each)
¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
2 Tablespoons sea salt (Fleur de Sel)
2 Tablespoons freshly ground black pepper
Preheat oven to 350° degrees.
Rub racks with olive oil; then sprinkle liberally with sea salt and black pepper.
In a hot sauté pan, sear all sides of the rack, browning evenly.
Place in the preheated oven for 20 minutes.
Remove racks from the oven and let rest for 10 minutes.
Then carve into either individual (8 1-inch thick) or double chops, depending on your taste.
Asian Pear and Kiwi Salsa
2 small Asian pears, cored, diced
3 large kiwis, peeled, diced
6 Tablespoons dried cranberries
1 shallot, minced
¼ cup chopped chives
1 Tablespoon sherry vinegar
2 Tablespoons fresh lemon juice
3 Tablespoons Orange Blossom Honey
2 Tablespoons chopped fresh mint
2 Tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
1 Tablespoon chopped fresh basil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste.
Combine pears, kiwis, cranberries, shallot, chives, sherry vinegar, and lemon juice in a medium bowl.
Add 2 tablespoons honey (hold 1 tablespoon in reserve), mint, cilantro, and basil.
Season to taste with kosher salt and black pepper. Let stand, tossing occasionally.
Preheat broiler.
Brush chops lightly on both sides with the remaining 1 tablespoon honey; sprinkle with salt and pepper.
Broil chops until cooked to desired doneness, about 5 minutes per side for medium-rare.
Transfer 2 1-inch thick lamb chops to each plate.
Spoon salsa alongside and serve.

I agree that certain dishes can't be altered too much if they're to have any degree of authenticity. Butchers do sell Beef and Lamb shanks for Osso Bucco and I would use them in the recipe - though even there, some foodies argue the taste is not as delicate as with the Veal.
Kind of like Wiener Schnitzel, it's really supposed to be made with veal but these days you can get it all over the place made with chicken or pork.
PS. I'm so anal about following a recipe to the letter that I've often driven miles and searched for days to get the correct, yet elusive ingredient. I also spend a lot of money on food. It's the obsessive/compulsive in me, LOL.

If I want as close a replica to the original I follow the recipe to a t, word for word, but then you start to think...what can I do to change it up a bit?
So you change a bit here and there and see what you come with. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. I usually don't change the meat, but the herbs and spices or maybe the veggies..thing like that. :confused3
I collect cookbooks and recipes the way some people collect figurines or stamps, its a hobby.

I apologize for giving you a flip answer earlier. I was just trying to say that I gave the replace-it-with-chicken response without thinking & only commented on the braise portion – completely ignoring the Osso Buco. It was intended to be self-deprecating & not used as advice. Thank you for explaining the term. I really enjoy reading your informed responses. I've learned a lot in reading them. I'll be more careful about answering questions in the future.
As to why I collect recipes...there are several reasons. One is just that once I hit a certain number of Disney recipes, it became a bit of a passion for me to have them...kind of like pins or figurines or baseball cards. I like to look through them, think about WDW, the restaurants where we ate, the wonderful time we had...and sometimes I actually make them. ;)
I make no claim to be any kind of authority on cooking or taste. I just know what works for us - both in terms of preparation & the final product. We enjoy a variety of tastes - something we learned to appreciate while at WDW. The first couple recipes I asked for were followed diligently, like the Flank Steak Marinade, because we were trying to re-create the taste of the food at Boma. We quickly found out that the marinade is great on any steak we grill.
I alter the original recipes when ingredients are difficult to obtain, or the recipe is too high in fat or sugar, or it just contains something one of us detests or can’t eat. I learned to cook from my grandmother...use what you have, eyeball amounts & "do it until it looks right".
It's all about the combination of flavors...ideas I wouldn't normally come up with on my own. My attitude is a lot like greeneye’s…it's a lot like the Rules of Parlay in "Pirates of the Caribbean" where Barbossa tells Elizabeth, "the code is more what you'd call guidelines than actual rules." pirate:
<snip> I ended up buying 2 Key Lime Vinegars, 1 Blood Orange vinegar (that won't even stretch to the recipe they have on the back which calls for 1 cup of vinegar) and a Raspberry Champagne vinegar. <snip> Anyway, the Key Lime vinegar is very good and can be used on salad without oil.

I’d love to find those vinegars around here! It might not be so bad to pay that price if I wasn’t also paying shipping. ;) I can justify almost anything. LOL I know not many people would do this, but I’ve even used plain, white vinegar on a salad w/o oil…when I was in the hospital & only allowed 1 fat exchange for the meal. :crazy2: Wine vinegar & balsamic I use that way all the time & they taste fine to me. I’m thinking the Key Lime would be like heaven! :angel:
As for the bread – because I was thinking Italian bread when I saw the 37 slices it made me :eek: but since it’s white bread I’m sure it’s needed to make the soup thick enough. I was thinking of 1½ inch slices of crunchy Italian bread that has less moisture than white bread & would soak up ALL the liquid. It was the mental image…you know? I’m weird & find humor in almost anything. ;)

Guidelines...........did you steal that line from Capt. Jack Sparrow??? pirate: :lmao:
I totally agree......changing up recipes and being creative with flavorings is fun, but sometimes when changes are made, the product is no longer similar to the original so it should be given a different name..........a classic example is Alfredo, whenever someone uses a white sauce with parmesan cheese they call it Alfredo when it really is not. Alfredo (classically speaking) is butter, parmigiano reggiano cheese, pasta water, and white pepper, but everyone thinks if it is a white sauce it is Alfredo. True Alfredo is not a cream sauce, even if most people seem to think so.......I guess since I cook for a living and teach Culinary Arts I tend to be a stickler for the facts when it comes to food, food history and techniques; when certain food names are invoked, I expect a certain finished product, but often the product served is far from the original concept. I alter recipes all the time, but I always rename the dish so customers won't get it confused with the original........again, just my two cents.
I also have a cookbook collection..........every chef I know has a massive library for inspiration and fun!

I didn't think you were being jerky at all. I had read before about your background & totally get where you're coming from. Let me tell you that I really don't like it when I'm eating out & the chef has tweaked the recipe beyond recognition without changing the name and without giving an adequate description to "warn" me before I order. So I really do appreciate knowing that when I read your posts I know I can count on what you've written.
I've posted on the Cooking board for a long time & am pretty open about my thoughts on cooking. I like it to taste good, but don't want to put a lot of effort into it...aka I'm lazy. LOL But because of that I feel somewhat intimidated by all the "foodies" who post on this thread. :scared: You are so serious about your cooking & I don't think I have a serious bone in my body. :laughing:

I kind of suspect that people who go into our kinds of professions HAVE to be a little obsessive-compulsive to succeed, LOL. I've got guests coming in half an hour and and making the Chermoula Roasted Chicken from Jiko. This time I DID alter the amount of cayenne pepper right off the bat. I saw 2 teaspoons for the sauce and knew, from previous experience, that nobody I know can eat anything that hot. I made my own Harrisa to accompany the chicken and that is incendiary enough. I'll post reviews of this and the Edamame Salad and the other Disney stuff on the menu later. I also heard back from Crystal Palace and AKL about the Zebra Domes.
The Cracked Wheat Rye Bread I baked late last night is delicious. We had a two-year-old come over to visit this afternoon and she couldn't stop eating it. The recipe is in "Cooking with Mickey Volume 2 (1986)". Also made the Portobello Mushroom Pasta (50s Prime Time Café) last night and really liked the wine mushroom sauce. That recipe is from "Cooking with Mickey and the Chefs of Walt Disney World" (1998).

Well, the dinner party tonight was quite a bit of work but SO worth it because right now I'm basking in the glow of rave reviews. I gave all the credit to the Disney recipes and really enjoyed the process of cooking everything. I had my camera all ready and wanted to take pictures of everything but it's impossible when you're rushing to get everything to the table and people immediately dig in. I managed to get 2 pics before dinner.
Review:
Cocktails - I handed out a cocktail menu so guests could choose their drinks. I tested all of them right before serving - and then made myself a double Gorillas in the Mist!
Moonshine (House of Blues) - no glowstick, but the person loved the drink.
Hula Hoop (Pop Century - p 49) - Ended up quadrupling the recipe but the parties who had it raved.
Eve's Revenge Martini (House of Blues - p 137) One of my faves and think I'll have another after I type this. But then I love sour apple schnapps.
Gorillas in the Mist (Planet Hollywood - p 137) this is very similar to a BBC but I think I like the BBC a little better. I left off the banana chips and chocolate syrup but the drink looks great with the whipped cream and is extremely tasty.
Blue Glow-tini (WDW - p 84) - used the sour mix instead of margarita mix. This is fruity drink very much like a Blue Hawaiian.
Salad: Edamame Salad (Crystal Palace from Delicious Disney) Bad editing of the cookbook AGAIN. After you boil the Edamame in step 1 it never mentions them again :confused3: Only one person didn't like the salad because they don't like beans. The rest raved and I didn't have a scrap leftover :sad1: I had a loaf of the Cracked Wheat Rye (Biergarten) on the table and it was fabulous. I've been baking all our bread for months now and this is one of the best loaves yet.

Main Course: Chermoula Roasted Chicken (Jiko - p118), Roasted Red Potatoes (Wilderness Lodge) and Orange Glazed Baby Carrots (Chef Mickey's).
I served the chicken like at Jiko with roasted garlic, Harissa and kalamata olives (no preserved lemons). I rubbed the Chermoula over and under the chicken skin and let it marinate about 2 hours bfore roasting. I added the rest during the roasting. I needn't have worried about it being too spicy/hot as it was PERFECT. One of the best chicken dishes ever. I might actually add more cayenne next time. The Harissa sauce was very good (in tiny amounts on the chicken) and I served the the Chermoula "sauce" directly from the roasting pan. You could probably boil it down and skim the fat but I didn't have the time. The roasted potatoes were simple but tasty. There was a LOT of olive oil and the potatoes were very moist but I'd cut back on the oil next time. The only slight miss were the carrots because the dish looked like a soup - there was THAT much sauce. I was suspicious of the recipe amounts but decided to follow to the letter. The sauce is very sweet (made of orange marmalade and juice) and the carrots were swimming in it. It tasted OK though and if I make it again I'd cut way back on the sauce.
Dessert: Mango Pie (http://baking.about.com/od/creampies/r/mango.htm)(inspired by the Mango Pie at Yak and Yeti's). The pie was to.die.for. :worship: it looked just like the one I saw on the Food pic thread from Yak and Yeti's and I bet the recipe I used is similar. It was gelatin, lime juice, mango puree and sweetened condensed milk. Heaven on a fork. I managed to salvage one piece for myself for tomorrow as everyone wanted seconds. This one's a keeper.
BTW, if anyone wants the recipes that are not posted let me know and I'll post them.

Does any one have the recipe for the zebra domes WITHOUT the alcohol and coffee?
This response is from the Sous Chef of Boma himself - "The zebra domes that are sold in Mara, are the same as the zebra domes on the Boma buffet, with the alcohol and espresso. We use Amarulla instead of Kahlua in our zebra domes now. In substitution for the Espresso and Amarulla, you can use Almond extract and Orange extract to taste. Sugar as well.
Meaning, add them until you acquire the desired flavor. They will be similar but will be missing the distinct flavor of the Amarula.
This should make for an interesting variation of our Zebra Domes."

I don't want to wear out my welcome with the Disney Chefs plus the're going to get very busy in the upcoming months so I REALLY hope we get people who are going to the parks over the summer to request recipes while they're there. If we can steer some of the foodies from the Restaurant reviews here that would be terrific. The more people we have requesting the better our collection gets.

I know I could taste the sweetened condensed milk - so I want to know....
I read about the coconut flan just a couple of weeks ago and it looked yummy. I forgot in which thread it was in/resturant it was in. In any case I would love to have the recipe. Thanks
hmm..:confused3 no coconut flan recipe yet. I responded to the address given but they haven't answered me yet.
Some posters say this is so good it's worth the price of the buffet.

½ cup Parmesan cheese (shredded)
½ cup Kalamata olives (rough chopped)
1 cup white balsamic vinaigrette
¼ cup olive oil

I am looking for the quinoa salad recipe from Crystal Palace. If anyone has it, please share. :) It was quite yummy and it's good for you! :)
Shrimp, Heart of Palm & Quinoa Salad
The Crystal Palace, MK, WDW (with gratitude to Executive Chef Robert Adams)
YIELD: 6 Servings
1 lb steamed & chilled shrimp
2 ½ cups cooked quinoa
1 can hearts of palm
2 oz fresh baby arugula roughly chopped

2 oz rice wine vinegar

3 oz olive oil blend
1 tbs celery salt

METHOD:
Cook the quinoa in a large quantity of salted boiling water (4 times the volume of the quinoa) for about 20 minutes. This washes out the slight natural bitterness of the grain.
Strain and cool off
Steam and cool off the shrimp
Cut the hearts of palm into ¾ inch coins or half coins depending on size. Blend together all the ingredients for the mustard dressing. Assemble everything together in a mixing bowl.

Sukiyaki (Sweet Soy Beef and Vegetable Hot Pot)
Yakitori House, Japan - Epcot
Yield: 4 serving servings
Prep time: 45 minutes
1 pound Beef (paper thin slice)
1 large Onion
1 Bunch Green Onion
½ pound Carrot
2 Packs Japanese Noodle
Sukiyaki Sauce
1/5 Cup Soy Sauce
1/5 Cup Mirin (Sweet cooking Sake)
1 Cup Dashi (Fish Stock)
Dashi
1 Cup Water
1 inch square Konbu (Sea Weed)
1/2 Cup Bonito Flakes
How to make dashi:
1. Place in a saucepan with konbu and water and soak for 2 hours.
2. Bring saucepan to a rapid simmer over high heat.
3. Remove saucepan from heat, adding bonito flakes.
4. Let stand for 3 minutes, strain through into a bowl.
Method of Preparation
Cut all ingredients into bite-sized pieces. Arrange all ingredients on a large plate and place the plate at the table. Mix Sukiyaki Sauce ingredients. Heat sukiyaki pot at table (electric fry pan or skillet is OK) and heat 1 tablespoon oil in pot. Add beef slices and sear on both sides, then pour sukiyaki sauce in the pan. Add other ingredients when the sauce starts to boil. Simmer until all ingredients are softened.
Cooks Note: Sukiyaki is a very popular one-pot meal in Japan. The main ingredient is thin sliced beef, and it is simmered in a skillet or pan in the sukiyaki sauce with many vegetables and other ingredients. The quality of beef used in Sukiyaki is very important. You might want to ask a butcher to slice the tender part of the beef into very thin slices. The best beef for sukiyaki is called "shimofuri" beef in Japan. Shimofuri beef has lots of fat, but it's very tender and is also very expensive. Sukiyaki is usually cooked at the table, and it's common to eat with others from the same pan.

Does anyone have the recipe for the crab mac and cheese at Shulas? I have looked everywhere I can think of!
I'll add it to the request list when I do the update today. I checked the Swan & Dolphin archives & it isn't there and I don't have it on my list either. The archives only go back to Jan 2004, but I have a couple that are from 2002 & 2003. I'm really upset that I didn't keep up with the recipe club back then. I thought the recipes would stay online...didn't realize they'd get bumped off. :(
For anyone who hasn't found the archives list, here is the link: http://www.swandolphin.com/recipeclub/archives.html
If you want to join their monthly recipe mailing list, there is a link at the bottom of this page: http://swandolphin.com/dining/index.html You only need to provide an email & first name - even though they ask for more.

In the past, llyninpa asked us to post the recipes here so we don't use links. How do we all feel about that? Would you rather just go to All Ears net?
Since no one else has answered, I'll give my opinion. I used to go out & search for new recipes all the time. But more recently, I've gotten lazy about it. I'm really getting spoiled with all the recipes being in one spot (here) & find that I really like it. :teeth: So I'd like to see them posted - but will be happy with what everyone else wants to do.
Thanks for all the new recipes! :thumbsup2 And can I just say that the use of color for the recipe names is really a nice touch. ::yes:: It really makes them stand out even more than just adding the bold.
Since we were talking about the Swan & Dolphin today, I thought I'd post a few of those recipes.

I just wrote the Swan and Dolphin that they should be publishing recipes from the actual restaurants (or crediting them) when they send that monthly recipe because I want to see recipes from Blue Zoo, Il Mulino, Garden Grove and Fresh.
They wrote back: "Glad to see you like the recipes as much as we do! Recipes actually come from our chefs throughout the property, not just the restaurants. Naturally, some recipes are "top-secret", so they do not give them out!
Thanks for being a member of our club!"
NMW - maybe you can contact Audrey Cornu (who wrote back to me) at acornu@swandolphin.com and see if she'd pass on the request for Shulas Crab Mac and Cheese.
Below are some recipes from Disneylands Grand Californian Hotel Pastry Chef, Jorge Sotelo who provides desserts for all the restaurants and catering events in the hotel, at movie premiere's etc. These are from 2005 and are beyond the scope of most home kitchens but one could make parts of the recipe.

1 Cup Milk
¼ Cup Unsalted butter, melted
½ Each Vanilla bean
Apple Filling
4 Each Apples
½ Cup Granulated sugar
2 Tspn. Lemon juice
¼ Cup Colvados brandy
½ Cup Light brown sugar
½ Cup Unsalted butter, melted
Applesauce
4 Cups Apples, diced & unpeeled
3 Cups Water
½ Cup Granulated sugar
Juice of a Lemon
½ Each Cinnamon stick
Ginger Ice Cream
4 Cups Heavy cream
2 Cups Milk
1 ½ Cups Granulated sugar
1 ½ Cups Chopped fresh ginger
12 Each Egg yolks

1 Cup Cabernet sauvignon
6 Oz. Granulated sugar
Tahitian Cream Anglais
2 Cups Milk
2 Cups Cream
4 Each Vanilla beans
1 Cup Granulated sugar
10 Each Egg yolks
Fillo Crisp
4 Each Fillo dough sheets
1 Cup Clarified butter
1 Cup Granulated sugar for sprinkling
For Crepes:
Place flour and cinnamon in a medium mixing bowl. In a separate small bowl, combine and whisk together yolks, whole eggs and milk. Slowly whisk the wet ingredients into the dry until smooth. Combine butter and vanilla bean in a saucepan; melt butter and whisk together. Add melted butter to crepe batter. Using an 8” nonstick sauté pan, make crepes. Stack crepes on top of each other, cover with a damp cloth until ready for use.
For Apple Filling:
Peel, core and cut apples into a large dice. Preheat a large sauté pan. When it is very hot, add the sugar and allow to melt and caramelize until amber in color. Add the diced apples and lemon juice. Sauté quickly, then add the brandy. The brandy will flame up so be careful. Remove from stove and pour the diced apples into a large bowl.
In a food processor, place one third of the sautéed apples, all of the brown sugar and the melted butter. Pureé until smooth. Stir back into the remaining sautéed apples and allow the filling to cool.
For Applesauce:
Place ingredients in a saucepan and bring to a simmer. Simmer for 10 minutes then remove from heat and allow to steep for 10 to 20 minutes. Strain through a cloth. Cool in an ice bath. Refrigerate until ready to use.
Mix with apple filling and place 3 tablespoons of apple mixture in the center of a cinnamon crepe. Fold over the edges to create a round puck shape. Fill remaining crepes and cover with a damp towel until ready to serve.
For Ginger Ice Cream:
Place the cream, milk, 1 cup of sugar and the ginger in a saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a simmer then remove from heat and allow to steep for 20 to 30 minutes. Place the egg yolks and remaining ½ cup sugar in a medium bowl and stir to combine. Put the ginger mixture back on the heat and bring to a full boil. Quickly whisk the boiling mixture into the yolks and sugar. Strain the mixture through a fine chinois and place into an ice bath to cool. Process in an ice cream machine.
For Cabernet Reduction Sauce:
Bring the cabernet and sugar together in a saucepan on a medium heat for about 15 to 20 minutes or until mixture reaches a thick consistency. Let cool and set aside.
For Tahitian Cream Anglais:
In a saucepan, bring the milk, cream, vanilla beans and half of sugar to a boil. Reduce heat and maintain at a simmer. In a medium bowl, combine the remaining sugar and yolks. Whisk until smooth. Temper the egg yolks by adding one third of the hot cream and place over medium heat, stirring constantly with a spatula. When the mixture thickens enough to coat the back of the spoon, remove from heat and strain through a fine sieve. Chill in an ice bath.
For Fillo Crisp:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Carefully spread a sheet of fillo dough on a flat surface. Lightly brush the dough with the butter. Place another sheet of dough on top. Repeat the process until all four sheets have been used. Cut the dough into desired shape. Lightly sprinkle sugar on a parchment-lined sheet tray. Place the dough shapes on the sugar and lightly sprinkle the dough with more sugar. Place a second sheet of parchment paper on top of the dough. Cover with another sheet tray, creating a sandwich. Bake until golden brown, 15 minutes. Allow to cool. Store in an airtight container.
For Final Presentation:
Place crepe on middle of plate on top of Tahitian crème sauce. Top with a scoop of ginger ice cream. Place a fillo triangle on top. For garnish, drizzle with cabernet sauce.

I'm on a sauce quest here... anyone have the recipe for these sauces...
'Ohana: Peanut Sauce, Chimichurri Sauce, Sweet and Sour Sauce?
Concourse Steakhouse: dips for the onion rings?
I have a basic p-nut sauce recipe, but just wondered how it compared.
Thanks :)
I just noticed that I have a Sweet & Sour Sauce recipe from the Polynesian. We're still searching for the recipes displayed above in blue.
SWEET AND SOUR SAUCE
POLYNESIAN
½ c water
1 c white vinegar
1 c granulated sugar
2 tsp red food coloring, optional
2 Tbl cornstarch
2 Tbl water
½ c diced green pepper
½ c diced onion
½ c diced pineapple
In a saucepan, combine ½ cup water, the vinegar, sugar and food coloring if desired. Bring to a boil. Dissolve cornstarch in 2 tablespoons water and stir into vinegar mixture, using a whisk. Cook and stir 5 minutes. Add green pepper, onion and pineapple. Serve on shrimp, chicken or pork. Refrigerate leftovers.

A few others from Epcot that I don't see on the index list...
Plantain Fried Catfish
From Garden Grill, EPCOT
1/16 lb Plantain chips - ground
1/16 lb Corn flakes - ground
Mix ingredients together.
Coat fish and deep fry.
Serves: 4 (Makes 2 ounces of coating.)
[NOTE: We tried this coating, but didn't deep fry it. We spayed a non-stick pan with olive oil. The result was nothing like what's served at GG...it was very bland. Everyone agreed that it wasn't so much the difference in frying method as much as it was the oil in the deep fryer picks up flavor from everything else that's been fried in it. We tried it a 2nd time & put a bit of cajun spice in with the plantain/corn flake mix and quite liked it. But in the end decided that we'd just sprinkle the cajun spice on the fish & bake it.]

8 oz boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into thick strips
Marinade:
Dash white pepper powder
Salt to taste
Sugar to taste
1 tsp water
1 tsp cooking wine
½ tsp Sesame oil
Batter:
¾ c all-purpose flour
¼ c cornstarch

½ Tbl chicken base
1 Tbl cornstarch
Pinch salt
1 Tbl cooking oil
1. For sauce, mix all ingredients except oil and orange peel. Heat oil in frying pan. Stir-fry chopped orange peel until fragrant. Pour orange-sauce mixture into frying pan and heat sauce over medium high heat. Stir until mixture bubbles. Set aside and keep warm.
2. For chicken, mix dry ingredients. Add oil. Stir in water. Put mixture aside 30 minutes. Heat cooking oil to 320 F. Dredge chicken in batter mixture, coating well. Using tongs, lower chicken pieces into hot oil. Fry until golden brown. Drain on paper towels.

[Recipe note: Garnish with orange slice and chopped green onions.]
{Editorial note: Nutty sesame oil is a key ingredient, and you'll notice it is used sparingly. That's because the flavor is so distinctive. Sesame oil is high in polyunsaturated fats ranking fourth behind safflower, soybean and corn oil.}

COCONUT PINEAPPLE CARAMEL DELITE DOME
Animal Kingdom Lodge, from Pastry Chef Edward Villacorta (from the Orlando Sentinel)
Yield: 12 servings.
4 boxes Caramel deLite cookies *
Coconut pineapple filling:
3 cups coconut milk
1 cup water
1 2/3 cups sugar
1 cup cornstarch
1/2 cup water
2 cups pineapples, diced and cooked
1 tablespoon brown sugar for pineapples
1/2 cup shredded coconut, toasted
1. In a saucepan, cook the diced pineapples with the brown sugar for about 3 minutes. Set aside to completely cool.
2. To prepare coconut pineapple filling, using a medium-size stainless-steel pot, combine coconut milk, sugar and 1 cup water and bring to a boil. Make a slurry with the cornstarch and 1/2 cup water in a separate bowl. As soon as the coconut milk boils, stir in the dissolved cornstarch and stir vigorously until the mixture thickens and boils for the second time. Add the cooked pineapples in the mixture and then set aside the filling to cool in room temperature.
3. Toast shredded coconut in a 325 F oven for about 7 minutes or more until you get a golden brown color. Set aside to cool.
4. To assemble the dome, prepare 10-inch-by-3 1/2-inch-deep metal bowl, by lining the inside with plastic wrap. Place 1 layer of Caramel deLite Cookies (about 24 pieces or 1 1/2 boxes) on the bottom of the bowl, the top of the cookies facing down. Start from the center of the bowl and work your way up the sides of the bowl. Go all the way to the top. Use cookies cut in half for the top, so that you can get a straight edge on the top. This is to ensure a straight edge when the dome is inverted for the finished cake.
5. Place a third of the slightly cooled filling over the cookies and sprinkle a layer of roughly chopped Caramel deLite cookies ( about 10 pieces) over it. Spread the rest of the filling over the middle cookie layer evenly and lay one layer of Caramel deLite Cookies (about 20 pieces) with the chocolate side up. This will serve as the bottom of the cake when inverted. Place the bowl in the refrigerator and let it set for an hour.
6. To unmold, lay a 10-inch cakeboard on the top of the bowl and gently invert the dome. Remove the plastic wrap. Cover the bottom edge of the dome with toasted coconut and serve.
Cooks Note: These Girl Scout cookies are wafers covered in chocolate, caramel and coconut.
Chocolate Spice Soufflé

3/4 teaspoon ground ginger
3/4 teaspoon ground allspice

1. Lightly butter and sugar a 1 1/2-quart soufflé dish, shaking out any excess sugar.
2. In a small bowl, whisk together the flour, ginger, allspice, cinnamon, nutmeg.
3. In a 2-quart saucepan, melt the remaining 2 tablespoons butter and stir in the flour mixture. Cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Remove the pan from the heat and add the milk, whisking constantly. Return to the heat and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes, or until the mixture boils. Cook, stirring, about 2 minutes longer, or until the batter pulls away from the side of the pan.
4. Remove the sauce pan from the heat and stir in the egg yolks and the melted chocolate. Transfer to a bowl and set aside to cool completely.
5. Preheat the oven to 375°F. In a bowl with an electric mixer, beat the egg whites and the remaining 1/2 cup sugar just to stiff peaks. Fold the egg whites into the cooled chocolate batter.
6. Transfer the cooled chocolate batter to the prepared soufflé dish; it should be about one quarter full. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until well risen. Serve immediately.

When the recipe says to "grease a large baking dish" how large is large? A 13X9" pyrex pan? Or a deep casserole dish?
Just hoping someone responds!

When the recipe says to "grease a large baking dish" how large is large? A 13X9" pyrex pan? Or a deep casserole dish?
Just hoping someone responds!
My suggestion would be to put the bread into whatever you want to use before you start. Just to test it out. Make sure you have enough room for the pineapple, etc & some room to rise.
Most of Disney's other bread pudding recipes seem to call for similar amounts of eggs, milk & cream. You could check some of those to see what pan they tell you to use: The Chocolate Silk Bread Pudding posted on page 138 says to use a 10" cake pan. One of the Boma Banana Bread Pudding recipes on page 12 says to use a 9x9 square pan. The 1900 Park Fare recipe on page 55 says to use a loaf pan.

Banana and Butterscotch "Buzz" - Caramelized Bananas and Butterscotch Custard Stack with Caramel Sauce, Cocoa Nib and crunchy Plantain
California Grill, Contemporary Resort
Butterscotch Crème Brûlée
16 - 20 servings
7 cups heavy cream
2 Tahitian vanilla beans
12 ounces dark brown sugar
4 ounces water
½ tsp. white vinegar
1 cup heavy cream
1 ounce dark rum
Pinch salt
12 egg yolks
Split the vanilla beans and scrape the seeds from the pods. Add the seeds and the scraped husks to the heavy cream and bring to a boil. Allow the vanilla to steep in the cream for a minimum of 30 minutes.
Combine the dark brown sugar, water, and the vinegar in a heavy saucepan and cook, WITHOUT stirring, to 240°. Remove from the heat and stir in the remaining heavy cream, dark rum, and salt.
When the cream and vanilla have steeped enough, strain the cream to remove the husks. Whisk the yolks lightly to blend them. Add the vanilla flavored cream to the beaten egg yolks, slowly, whisking until well combined.
Whisk the butterscotch mixture into the yolk and cream mixture. At this point, time permitting, the crème brûlée base should be rested overnight. Rest the base under refrigeration due to the uncooked egg yolks it contains.
Divide the base equally between 15 shallow gratin dishes set on a very flat sheetpan. Place the pan directly on the deck of a 325° oven and add boiling water to the sheetpan until the water is a ¼ inch below the rims of the dishes. Bake until lightly set. Remove the pan of crèmes carefully from the oven and allow to cool in it. When they have come to room temperature, chill them.
(Different sugar toppings to try if serving on it’s own:
1. Dried brown sugar that is spread on a baking sheet and dry in oven or leave it out for a day or two.
2. In a blender, add brown sugar and blend until not quite a powder. Mix equal portions of granulated sugar and place on sheetpan lined with parchment. Dry in oven at 200° for an hour or so.)
Filo Squares
Yield: 15 each
5 Sheets Filo
½ pound butter
8 ounces Granulated Sugar
Butter first 3 sheets of filo. Brush butter on the 4th and 5th layer then sprinkle with Granulated Sugar. Score 3 X 5 on the entire pile of filo. Bake till golden brown.
Butterscotch Sauce
Yield: 1 cup
1 stick Butter, unsalted
1 cup Brown Sugar
Melt Butter in sauce pan. Add Brown Sugar and melt together, reduce until caramel forms.
Caramelized Bananas
2- 3 bananas, halved lengthwise and cut into 3” lengths
Sugar, for caramelizing
The restaurant dusts the bananas with sugar and caramelizes with a blowtorch. Alternatively, at home, you can roll the bananas in sugar, until coated. Spray cooking spray in a medium size nonstick pan, and heat over medium high heat. Add bananas and sugar. Cook bananas until light to golden brown underneath, about 4-5 minutes (you can lift with a spatula to peak). Be careful not to overcook or burn them (if you smell them browning, or see color in the pan, flip them right away). They should not be too soft. Gently flip bananas over to brown other side, turning heat down to medium. The second side will brown in about one minute. Set aside.
Edit: CG sent the 2 missing recipes so here goes:
Cocoa Nib/Hazelnut Tuile
YIELD: 4 5/8 pounds
16 Ounces Butter
16 Ounces Granulated Sugar
5 Ounces Glucose

1. Carefully peel 5 green plaintains trying best to retain natural shape. This should be done no earlier than 4:30 pm.
2. Slice plaintains on deli slicer #8 setting down the whole length of the plaintain trying to retain the natural shape. See chef for demo if unsure.3. In batches or 8-10, fry plaintains in fryer @ 350° turning plaintains to ensure crispy coloring evenly throughout chip while trying to keep their natural shape. If unsure see chef for demo.
4. Once plaintains are crispy on both sides let drain on marituffs and season both sides generously immediately so cocoa-coffee mix will adhere.

Garnish with Cocoa Nib/Hazelnut Tuile, whipped cream and 1 slice of Crunchy Plantain.
*PS - piratesmate - you can probably remove the Blueberry Bliss request from the list. It was a seasonal dessert late last summer/early fall and is off the menu. It's doubtful anyone got the recipe and there's not much point keeping it on the request list :)
Regarding: 1439 & 1516: Jungle Juice page 97 - the Boma and Tusker House recipe are the same.
Can our resident chef tell us what a marituff is? - as in Once plaintains are crispy on both sides let drain on marituffs

Thanks Tatania,
That dessert was amazing. Did not realize all the steps involved, it will be interesting to try. As for your question the plantain was crunchy and a little bit sweet, and I believe the cocoa nib was carmelized.

I was debating whether to post these as the original directions where so sketchy - due to being seriously lost in translation. But I spent some time on it and think I've sorted it out so it's at least understandable. Since recipes from the foreign DL are so rare I figured this might be interesting - from an armchair cook perspective.
I have an opportinity to go to Hong Kong in October and was debating whether to go to Hong Kong DL but it sounds very small and not that exciting. I'd only go food, LOL.

Rosemary Apple Panna Cotta
Disney Hollywood Hotel , Hong Kong Disneyland
(Yield 10 serving)
Champagne Jelly
70g/2.5 oz. Green Apple, cut in small dice
70g/2.5 oz Red Apple, cut in small dice
250 ml /1 cup Champagne
100 g/3.5 oz Gelatin
100 g/3.5 oz sugar
Mango Mousse
80 g/scant 3 oz. mango puree
50 g (3 TBSP + 1 tsp.) cream, - whipped to 80%
20 g/.7 oz Gelatin
30 g/1 oz *White Couverture or Confectioners' Chocolate
Panna Cotta
800 g/ 3 1/3 cup heavy cream
80 g/scant 3 oz fresh rosemary
100 g/3.5 oz. sugar
20 g/.7 oz Gelatin
50 g/ 1 3/4 oz. walnuts, caramelized (use your fav recipe)
Chocolate Truffles
500 g/ 1lb Dark Couverture or Confectioners' Chocolate
500 g/1lb White Couverture or Confectioners' Chocolate
200g/ 7 fl oz. Cream, whisked to 70%
20g/2.5 TBSP Icing Sugar, garnish
10g mint leaves, garnish
Champagne Jelly: Boil the champagne until reduced by 50%. (This seems odd as it ends up being 1/2 cup liquid for the apples and gelatin and about 1 TBSP per serving.) Add sugar and gelatin – if using granulated gelatin, it needs to be rehydrated in a cool liquid before being dissolved in the hot liquid. If using sheet gelatin, immerse sheets in cold water for a few minutes (don't use liquid from the recipe for sheet gelatin), then pick up the soft mass and squeeze excess liquid from it and drop into hot liquid. Let the jelly cool down before putting in the apple dices. Put the apple champagne mixture in the bottom of 10 martini glasses, put into refrigerator and let it firm.
Mango Mousse: 2. Mix the Mango puree, softened gelatin and melted white chocolate with the whisked cream. Spread a layer of Mango White Chocolate Mousse on the Champagne Jelly; put into the refrigerator.
Panna Cotta: If using granulated gelatin, sprinkle gelatin over 2 - 3 Tbsp. water and let stand about 1 minute to soften. Soak the leaf gelatine in cold water. In a saucepan set heavy cream and rosemary set over medium heat. Bring to a full boil, watching carefully, as the cream will quickly rise to the top of the pan. Simmer the cream with rosemary, adding the sugar after 5 minutes and removing the rosemary after 10 minutes. Add softened gelatin and stir to dissolve. Remove from heat. Let it cool down and stir in diced apple (?) and caramelized walnuts. Spread the Panna Cotta on the Mango Mousse and put into the refrigerator again.
Make a ganache by breaking chocolate into small pieces and put in a 2 separate bowls – keeping the white and dark chocolate apart. Bring cream slowly to a light boil. Pour boiling cream over chocolate (half in each bowl) and keep stirring until all the chocolate has melted and the batter is homogenous. You want the ganache to be just thick enough to easily form the truffle balls; You can thicken it by whisking it (the oxygen causes it to thicken) or by putting it in the refrigerator. Using two spoons (or a baking sac) form even and round balls. Place them on parchment or wax paper.
Evenly scatter the chocolate truffle on top of the Panna Cotta making a nice pattern of dark and light. Garnish with icing sugar and mint leaves.
Presentation: Evenly scatter the chocolate truffle on top of the Panna Cotta. Garnish with icing sugar and mint leaves.
* Couverture or confectioners' chocolate is a special kind of chocolate that has more cocoa
butter than regular chocolate, anywhere from 33% to 38% for a really good brand. Normally you need to temper this kind of chocolate to work with it but for the mousse you can melt in the microwave.
Microwave method: Place chopped pieces of chocolate into a microwave proof bowl and heat it in the microwave for 30 seconds. Remove the bowl, stir what you can then return it to the microwave for another 30 seconds. Continue this until the chocolate is just about melted. You might be tempted to increase the time intervals, but remember that warmed
chocolate will keep its shape, even if it is melted, unless it is stirred. Don't judge time on looks alone. When the chocolate is almost completely melted, remove it from the microwave and stir, letting the warmth of the bowl and surrounding chocolate complete the melting.

Walt’s Lemon Meringue Pie
Created by Contemporary Resort pastry chef Mary Schaefer, this pie is a Disney classic.
<Source> Family Fun Magazine
For the crust:
1 1/3 c graham cracker crumbs (from 1 sleeve, or 9 large crackers)
2 Tbl sugar
5 Tbl unsalted butter, melted
For the filling:
1 c sugar
1/3 c cornstarch
¼ tsp salt
1½ c water
½ c fresh lemon juice
5 large egg yolks, at room temperature
2 Tbl unsalted butter, at room temperature, cut into pieces
Grated zest from 1 lemon (about 1½ Tbl)
½ tsp vanilla extract (optional)
For the meringue:
3 large egg whites at room temperature
¼ tsp cream of tartar
6 Tbl sugar
To make the crust:
1. Break up the graham crackers and place in a food processor. Process the crackers with the sugar for about 20 seconds, or until the crackers become fine crumbs.
2. Add the melted butter and pulse about 10 times, just until incorporated. (If you do not have a food processor, you can crush the crackers in a zip-lock bag with a rolling pin, whisk in the sugar, then stir in the melted butter.)
3. Using your fingers, press the mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch pie pan and up the sides. Be sure to press the bottom thoroughly so that the crumbs are evenly distributed. Set aside.
For the filling:
1. In a medium non-reactive saucepan, stir together the sugar, cornstarch, and salt until well combined.
2. Whisk in water and juice. Scrape the corners to incorporate all the dry ingredients.
3. Cook, stirring constantly, over medium heat for about 7 minutes, or until the mixture comes to a boil.
4. Boil, whisking constantly, for 1 minute, until mixture thickens and generously coats a spoon. Remove from the heat.
5. In a medium bowl, whisk the yolks well. Temper the yolks by whisking in about ½ cup of the hot lemon pudding.
6. Scrape the warm yolks into the hot pudding, whisking to blend in the yolk mixture before the eggs overcook.
7. Return the lemon pudding to the stove over the lowest heat and stir constantly for about 4 minutes.
8. Remove from the heat and add the butter, zest, and vanilla. Stir until the butter is completely melted.
9. Set the filling aside to cool for 30 minutes before spooning it into the graham cracker crust.
Make the meringue:
1. While the filling is cooling, Heat the oven to 350 degrees.
2. Beat the egg whites with the cream of tartar until they hold stiff peaks.
3. Beat in the sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time. Continue to beat until very stiff but not dry.
4. Spoon the lemon filling into the graham cracker crust. Smooth with a small spatula or the back of a spoon.
5. Cover the filling with the meringue, creating peaks and swirls with the back of a spoon. Make sure that the meringue touches the edge of the pie shell all the way around.
Bake until the meringue is golden, about 12 to 15 minutes. Allow the pie to cool at room temperature for 1 hour, and then refrigerate until completely cold.
To loosen the crust from the pan, carefully dip into a pan of warm water. The butter on the outside of the crust will start to melt, and the slices will come out intact.

Chris’s Cold Pie
This cool, lemony creation, from the files of Walt Disney's wife, Lillian, was named in honor of their first grandchild, Christopher Disney Miller.
<Source> FamilyFun.com
4 eggs, separated, at room temperature (see "Note" below)
½ c fresh-squeezed lemon juice
½ c water
1 Tbl unflavored gelatin
½ c sugar, plus another ½ cup
¼ tsp salt
1 Tbl grated lemon rind
1 9-inch prepared graham cracker piecrust
½ tsp fresh-grated nutmeg
1. In a small bowl, beat the egg yolks with lemon juice and water until combined.
2. Mix gelatin, ½ cup of the sugar, and salt in the top of a double boiler.
3. Pour in the egg yolk mixture and blend well.
3. Cook, stirring constantly, over simmering water for 10 minutes.
4. Stir in lemon rind. Let sit for 20 minutes over a bowl of ice cubes, stirring occasionally.
5. Remove from ice when mixture is thick enough to form a mound when dropped from a spoon.
6. Beat the egg whites in a large bowl until soft peaks form.
7. Gradually add the remaining ½ cup of sugar, 2 tablespoons at a time, beating well after each addition. Continue beating until stiff peaks form.
8. Gently fold the gelatin mixture into the egg whites until just combined. Turn into the piecrust. (See Walt's Lemon Meringue Pie recipe above if you prefer to make a graham cracker crust.)
9. Dust the top with nutmeg and chill for several hours.
Note: There is always a risk of food poisoning when cooking with raw eggs. The yolks in this recipe are cooked, and you may substitute liquid pasteurized egg whites for the raw whites.

AVOCADO, PAPAYA, AND GRAPEFRUIT SALAD II
Boma – Flavors of Africa, Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge
Yield: 4 servings
1 each Papaya
1 each Avocado
1 each Grapefruit
10 each Mint Leaves, chiffonade (stack leaves and cut into strips)
**Dressing:
½ cup Plain Yogurt
2 Tbl Grapefruit Juice
1 Tbl Honey
1. Peel the papaya, slice in half lengthwise and remove the seeds.
2. Cut the avocado in half lengthwise and remove the pit. Using a large spoon, separate the fruit from the peel.
3. Dice both the papaya and the avocado into 1-inch cubes.
4. Using a knife, peel the grapefruit to remove all the bitter white pith. Over a bowl, cut each segment away from the membrane. (You can use the juice for the dressing.)
5. Toss the fruit and mint together and set aside.
6. In a small bowl, mix the ingredients for the dressing together. Mix enough dressing to evenly coat the fruit.
Please note!!**For the AVOCADO, PAPAYA, AND GRAPEFRUIT SALAD II - a word of warning. Do not put the dressing on ahead of time as the yogurt separates (thanks to the acid in the grapefruit) and it all goes watery. I made that mistake and it wasn't very good.

I've searched and couldn't find it. Does someone please have the recipe for the chili at the Yacht and Beach Club?? My 7 yr old inhaled many bowls while we were there. I'd like to surprize him. Thanks.
Was it the chili served at Beaches and Cream? I can't see it on the posted menus for Yachtsman Steakhouse or Captain's Grille. We should get Mr. Disney on this request because I think the Chefs at Yachtsmen are good buds with him ;)
Our new favorite family chili is the 7-bean Chili from Sci Fi diner (p. 65). There are a lot of ingredients but it sure is good. I made it this week with Sourdough Biscuits ( p. 16) and the biscuits are delicious. I have a sourdough starter that has been going since January.
The good old tried and true Disney recipes are still great. At a retirement luncheon today at work I made sandwich fillings and did the Lunching Pad Tuna Salad (p 118) and the Egg Salad from River Belle Terrace (Cooking with Mickey). The bowl of egg salad was gigantic and there was nothing left - people loved it.

Tatania – Thanks for the advice on the yogurt dressing on the Avocado, Papaya & Grapefruit Salad! I’ve edited the OP to make sure no one misses that. It makes me wonder, though, how on earth they manage to serve that on a buffet!! I could see it for table service, but buffet? :confused3 I wonder if they’re doing something that don’t mention in the recipe.
Would you mind posting the Egg Salad recipe from River Belle Terrace? That’s one thing I still make exactly the same as my mother did & I always like new things – even on an old stand-by recipe. ;)
*Robin* - It’s so nice to see an old friend return! :teeth: Yes, you did call me the Conversion Queen. :lmao: I must have posted those equivalents so often that everyone on the Internet now has them copied because I haven’t seen that question in quite a while. ;) Either that or everyone here now actually follows the recipes as written. LOL
Today I’m posting recipes from the 2000 Food & Wine Festival.

Cheese Rolls
Food & Wine Festival ’00, Brazil & Argentina
8 oz tapioca flour
2 fl oz sunflower oil
generous pinch of sea salt
1 egg, beaten

Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Sift the flour into a bowl. In a saucepan, combine the oil and salt with 3 fl. oz. water and bring to a boil. Slowly pour onto the tapioca, stirring it to a stiff dough with a wooden spoon. When the dough has cooled slightly, stir in the egg, then the yogurt and finally the cheese.
Grease your hands, then form the dough into 12 balls. Arrange them on a non-stick baking sheet. Put into the oven and immediately reduce the temperature to 350 degrees F. Bake for 25-30 minutes. Test for doneness using a cake tester. If it comes out clean, they are done. Cool on a wire rack.

Thanks for the advice on the yogurt dressing on the Avocado, Papaya & Grapefruit Salad! It makes me wonder, though, how on earth they manage to serve that on a buffet!! I could see it for table service, but buffet? I wonder if they’re doing something that don’t mention in the recipe.
I didn't see this salad on the buffet the last time I ate there but it could be that's why there's a second version of the recipe with no yogurt in it OR they use something a little different in the restaurant. I remember reading a comment about the recipes that Disney gives out where it was claimed that the recipes are often "dumbed" down for the public or something crucial is left out (like what kind of tomato soup is really used in the BLT Soup recipe at Sci - Fi) so we’re only making something that’s close. For the real thing we have to go to WDW and purchase the food. In some cases that makes sense – like the Schoolbread recipe in Askerhus. All the comments I’ve read from people who tried to replicate the bread using the recipe given said it didn’t really work well and didn’t taste like the real thing. On the other hand, I know the recipes that many of the recipes I personally get from the chefs come from the kitchen and we don’t have the tools or high quality ingredients they use to get the exact same results.
Egg Salad for River Belle Terrace
River Belle Terrace, Frontierland, Disneyland (from Cooking With Mickey 1992)
Yield: 6 servings
12 eggs, hard-boiled and peeled
1 cup mayonnaise
1 Tbsp. prepared mustard (I use Dijon)
1 tsp. seasoning salt (I use Lawry’s Seasoned Salt)
1 tsp. freshly ground pepper
1 Tablespoon lemon juice
Rinse peeled eggs and pat dry with paper towels. In a glass or stainless steel bowl, or a food processor with a steel blade, chop eggs to a medium fine consistency. Fold in mayonnaise qans seasonings, mixing well. Chill until ready to use.
Cooks Note: A trick I learned is to add melted butter (1/2 cup) to the mix as it makes the salad nice and firm when served and gives it that extra creamy taste. I also add ½ tsp. garlic salt, ½ tsp. celery salt, some fresh dill weed or chives and chopped celery if I have it. The recipe as is is very good but this makes it even better.
Steamed Mussels with Pesto Cream
from Flying Fish Cafe, Disney's Boardwalk Resort (Nov.2007 Oakland Tribune)
Makes 4 appetizers or 2 main courses
1 cup heavy (whipping) cream
For pesto (without cheese):
1 garlic clove, chopped
½ teaspoon coarse salt
1 cup tightly packed basil leaves
2 tablespoons pignoli (pine nuts)
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
For mussels:
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
¼ trimmed fennel bulb, sliced paper thin (about ½ cup)
¼ cup thin sliced shallot
2 garlic cloves
1/8 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 cup crisp dry white wine
1 ½ - 2 pounds mussels, rinsed and drained
Boil the heavy cream in a heavy saucepan over medium heat about 5 minutes or until reduced to 1/2cup. Set aside.
Meanwhile make the pesto: In a food processor or blender, puree the garlic, salt, basil and pignoli. With the motor running slowly add the oil, scraping down the sides as needed. If using a mortar and pestle pound the garlic, salt and pignoli to a paste, then gradually pound in the basil leaves until pureed. Drizzle the oil into the puree, slowly mixing with the pestle. There should be about ¼ cup pesto. (If using jarred or prepared pesto use 3-4 tablespoons, or to taste.)
In a large wide pot or a saute pan heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium low heat. Add the fennel, shallot, garlic and red pepper flakes and saute just until wilted, about 3 minutes. Add the wine and simmer over medium heat until reduced by half, about 5 minutes. Add the mussels and cook, covered, over medium high heat, until all the shells are opened, about 4 minutes. With a slotted spoon transfer the mussels to a large shallow serving bowl. Add the reduced cream and ¼ cup pesto to the mussel juices and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Pour over the steamed mussels and serve at once.
Cooks Note: For convenience, Tim Keating, Chef de Cuisine at Flying Fish Cafe, suggests that store-bought pesto can be used in this recipe.
Carrots and Cranberries
Crystal Palace, MK (from Chef Jeff Page on Cooking With Mickey 1998)
Serves 6 - 8 (Makes about 4 cups)
1 1/3 cups orange juice
3 Tbsp light brown sugar
1 Tbsp cornstarch
2 Tbsp butter
2 lbs carrots, peeled and thinly sliced
1 cup fresh cranberries
1/2 tsp. salt, or to taste
1/8 tsp freshly ground pepper, or to taste
1. In a 1 quart saucepan, bring one cup of orange juice and the brown sugar to a simmer over medium heat, stirring until the sugar is dissolved.
2. In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining 1/3 cup juice with the cornstarch. Add the cornstarch mixture to the brown sugar mix and bring to a boil, whisking constantly, and cook for one minute, or until thickened. Set aside.
3. In a 12-inch skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the carrots and cook, stirring, abut 5 minutes, or until crisp-tender. Add the cranberries, salt and pepper and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes longer. Add the thickened orange juice mixture, combine thoroughly, and cook about 2 minutes, or until heated through.
Transfer to a serving bowl and serve hot.

Sauté for 4 minutes or until golden brown. Using kitchen tongs, turn scallops over and begin browning the opposite side. If they are cooking too quickly reduce the heat to medium. Once scallops are cooked on both sides, serve immediately.
To plate, place the hot chive whipped potatoes in the center of the plate, set two scallops per person on top of the potatoes. Then with a spoon, ladle sauce over the scallops and potatoes.
Sour Cream - Chive Potatoes
3 Russet potatoes, peeled and quartered
1/2 cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons sour cream
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1/2 cup (2 Tbsp. in CWM) snipped chives
Salt and pepper to taste
Place potatoes in a pot with enough cold water to cover them by at least 3 inches. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Simmer for approximately 20 minutes or until tender. Drain and transfer potatoes to a mixing bowl. Smash or pass potatoes through a ricer. Season with salt, pepper & chives. Add the butter sour cream and heavy cream until potatoes are nice and moist. Add lemon, taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
These should be made in advance and can be held warm. Quickly sauté the scallops before serving.
Lobster, Lemon & Vanilla Sauce
1 lobster (steamed, cracked and meat removed)
1 tablespoon clarified butter
2 minced shallots
1 cup white wine
1 cup chicken stock
1 vanilla bean, split or 1/8 teaspoon good vanilla extract
1 small pinch saffron
3 tablespoons diced tomatoes
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon fresh chopped thyme
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
In a saucepan, sauté shallots in 1 tablespoon clarified butter over medium-high heat. Add the white wine and reduce by 70 percent to 1/3 cup. Add the chicken stock, half of one vanilla bean and saffron; reduce by 50 percentor until 2/3 cup liquid remains. Add tomatoes, chopped thyme and lemon juice.
Remove sauce pan from heat and slowly whisk in unsalted butter. Add lobster meat. Mixture should resemble a creamy lobster and saffron stew. Taste sauce and adjust by adding salt or a few drops of lemon juice if necessary.
Serve with a chilled quality Sauvignon Blanc or Bordeaux Blanc.
Hi Tatania,
They posted the entire recipe, I added it to MC as a single recipe and then as individual recipes since they can stand alone and be served in many different ways.

Hi Tatania,
It might look like I posted all at once but usually when I get a chance to post it's a recipe and maybe another a few hours later when I can fit them in. I haven't had time for any posting or transcribing lately so I'm glad just to add a few recipes in any way that I can these days.

If I could make another housekeeping request....
When commenting on recipes that someone has posted - especially long ones or multiple recipe posts - please don't quote the entire post. Snipping out the actual recipe, leaving only the title for example, would really help to keep this thread going a bit longer. Obviously if you are comparing 2 versions or commenting on instructions, you won't want to remove the entire thing.

This was posted in a separate thread earlier & I'm just adding it here so they're all together.
Looking for Bavarian Cheesecake recipe from Coral reef
I would love to find/have the recipe for the Bavarian Cheesecake from Coral Reef. It was one of my DH favorite things to eat while we were there and has said many times that he wants to go back just so he can have another one, LoL.
If anyone has this and is willing to share that would be wonderful! I hope to surprise him with it on Father's Day!
Thanks for sharing SusieJane! :thumbsup2
Do you think it is the same one that is served in the Biergarten Restaurant?
BAVARIAN CHEESECAKE
INGREDIENTS
6 ounces Cream Cheese
6 ounces Baker's Cheese
2 Egg Yolks
4 ounces Granulated Sugar
8 ounces Sour Cream
1 ounce Lemon Juice
12 ounces Heavy Cream
1/2 ounce Gelatin
2 ounces Water
Vanilla Sponge Cake -- recipe follows
VANILLA SPONGE CAKE
INGREDIENTS
3/4 cup Sugar (granulated)
4 Egg yolks
1 teaspoon. Vanilla Extract
3/4 cup Flour (all-purpose)
3/4 teaspoon Baking Powder
1/2 teaspoon Salt
4 Egg Whites
METHOD
1. Preheat an oven to 375 degrees F.
2. Sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
3. In a mixer, add the egg yolks and sugar beat until light and creamy. Add the vanilla extract.
4. Gradually add the flour mixture to the egg mixture. Beat until smooth.
5. Whip the egg whites until stiff, but not dry. Gently fold this into the cake batter.
6. Place into two separate greased and lined 8-inch round cake pans. Bake for approximately 10-12 minutes.
ASSEMBLING CAKE
METHOD
1. Whip heavy cream until soft peaks. Set aside.
2. Mix together in a mixing bowl the cream cheese, baker's cheese, egg yolks, and granulated sugar until smooth. Then add the sour cream and mix until smooth.
3. Gently add the whipped mixture to the cheese mixture being careful not to over whip.
4. Dissolve the gelatin in the water over a double boiler until the mixture is clear. Be careful not to whip the gelatin so it does not get air bubbles in it.
5. Add the gelatin mixture into the cheese mixture and fold quickly. When adding the gelatin mixture to the cheese mixture set the mixer on medium speed, and add it from the edge of the bowl, being careful not to get the gelatin on the whip or the side of the bowl so as to prevent lumping.
6. Using a springform pan, place one of the vanilla sponge cakes smooth side down. Immediately pour the cheese mixture on the cake, and smooth out surface. Then place the other cake on top with the smooth side out. Let set overnight.
7. Remove the cake from the springform pan. Sprinkle the top of the cake with powdered sugar. This cake can be served with any of your favorite fresh fruit sauce(s).
<snip>I didn't see this salad on the buffet the last time I ate there but it could be that's why there's a second version of the recipe with no yogurt in it OR they use something a little different in the restaurant. I remember reading a comment about the recipes that Disney gives out where it was claimed that the recipes are often "dumbed" down for the public or something crucial is left out (like what kind of tomato soup is really used in the BLT Soup recipe at Sci - Fi) so we’re only making something that’s close. <snip>
re: the Avocado, Papaya & Grapefruit Salad II...I had written that the yogurt dressing was the "newer" version so I'm guessing it was more a case of the chefs using something different or dumbing it down. That's okay with me as "close" is good enough for my less-than-discerning palate. :rolleyes1
And thanks for sharing that egg salad recipe. I never would have thought to add lemon juice! I use ground celery seed & brown mustard and thin the mayo with vinegar & sugar/sweetener.
Thanks to kitkat324 for that Bread Pudding with Lemon Sauce! I love anything with lemon & can't wait to try that. :thumbsup2 As for posting it, all Disney recipes are welcome! If it's in a Disney cookbook, it was probably served on Disney property at some point. ;)

I have nearly 2,000 WDW recipes that I would love to share. I'm also transcribing 3 WDW cookbooks that I'd like to share ***BUT***
I was asked not to send in older recipes to make room for newer ones... fine
Now it's post multiple recipes in one post...also edit posts if your going to reply to others.
It's really too bad because I would love to continue to add recipes here but with these increasing posting "rules" it's a hassle. When I have spare time to send a recipe all I am thinking about is copy, paste send, not having to compile a number of recipes in a file on my desk top and then adding them to the boards. It is time consuming for me to do that because of the recipe program that I use.
If you think about it this thread will eventually run out of room. Even if the posts are all in order as the mod requests, it will run out of room. Why can't another thread be started? IMO, It's the recipes that people want and when it starts becoming a chore to share recipes it's the readers who suffer. There are only a small handful of people who actually share recipes here, to alienate any of them is an injustice to the thread.
I mean no harm these are just my thoughts.:confused:

No worries, GoofyMama. Given the options, I'd rather keep the posting simple and have people post than the opposite - because, in the end we're recipe collectors and love having the new recipes. If we need to start a new thread down the road, then that's what we'll have to do :banana:
BTW, I can't seem to find the request list anymore. That was a great idea to split the index into multiple posts - but am I missing the post with the requests in that thread?
Made some drinks this weekend and have to say I loved the Rocky Mountain Mudslide - but then I love milkshakes! The Typhoon Tilly was also delicious and the Pina Colada (Poly) was rich! I like my drinks a little sweeter as well - but that's just me. Made the Cured Pork Loin from Boma again and it's such a good dry marinade. The pork roast is super tender and tasty. Planning a big Disney menu for a dinner party next Sunday so will get to try a lot of new recipes.
Regarding the Bavarian Cheescake: This is a pretty close recipe for what's called a Sahne Quark Torte in Germany. I've had better there but I liked this version and would make it again. In case anyone is wondering what Baker's Cheese is, you're store may sell it under the German name "Quark". I love Quark and make lots of things with it - not just desserts.

TheGoofyMama, I agree with Tatania - I'd rather see the recipes posted than not. Without belaboring the point, the requests to combine recipes and not to copy lengthy posts when responding were made because of the concerns of quite a few posters when I first started updating the index. They weren't "rules" just suggestions. OK? :thumbsup2
Tatania, thanks for letting me know that the Request List was missing. :blush: I know I copied & pasted it. I must have forgotten to save it. LOL It's fixed now.
I have the following "B" recipes from AKL that haven't been posted yet.

Black and Pearl Barley Risotto with Soy Beans & Baby Spinach
Jiko, Disney's Animal Kingdom Lodge
Yield: 8 servings
2 Tbl Olive Oil
½ c Spanish Onion, diced fine
½ c Pearl Barley
½ c Black Barley (buy from IndianHarvest.com)
2 c Water
To taste Kosher Salt
To taste Fresh Ground Black Pepper
¼ tsp Ground Cumin
¼ tsp Ground Cardamom
1/8 tsp Ground Cloves
1/8 tsp Ground Cinnamon
1/8 tsp Ground Coriander
½ c Soybeans, dried
2 c Water
To taste Kosher Salt
To taste Fresh Ground Black Pepper
¼ tsp Ground Cumin
¼ tsp Ground Cardamom
1/8 tsp Ground Cloves
1/8 tsp Ground Cinnamon
1/8 tsp Ground Coriander
½ lb Baby Spinach
Heat up the olive oil in a stainless steel pot and toss in the fine-diced Spanish onions. Sweat them until they become translucent.
Pour in the black and pearl barley and stir with the onions until all becomes glossy looking.
Deglaze everything with the water and add in the Kosher salt, fresh ground pepper and the five "C" spices.
Bring the pot to a quick boil and then let it simmer until the barley is done, about 40 minutes. Be aware that the barley may not absorb all the water.
Simultaneously, take the soy beans and cook them in a stainless steel pot with 2 cups of water with Kosher salt, fresh ground pepper and again, the five "C" spices. The beans should take about 30 minutes until done. Reserve them on the side in the broth. You will need the broth to warm up the risotto.
When ready to finish the dish, warm up the barley risotto, add in the cooked soy beans, a little bit of that broth and let it all warm up nicely in a stainless steel pot.
Adjust seasoning and then toss in the baby spinach leafs. Serve immediately and Bon Appetit...
[Chef's NOTE: This is a complete vegan dish. If you only are looking to have something vegetarian, you may add in some cheese for added creaminess.]

Here are a couple "C" recipes as well. This first one cracked me up! We had this at The Mara on several occasions & it was great! But I really think this is one of those "dumb downed" recipes. They mailed this to me about a week after we got home & I know the salad wasn't put onto the crust until after the crust was baked when we had it there! Also, there was some sort of sauce on the crust. It may be been Caesar dressing, but it was definitely of the creamy variety. :confused3 I'd love to have the "real" recipe someday.

I had to laugh as the thought of baking the Caesar salad at 400 - what a mess :lmao: That's an example of where I wouldn't follow the recipe.
Thanks PNWMom for posting the Swam and Dolphin recipes. Always love seeing a new poster! If you change the number in the link, month and year, other recipes come up. Here are some more: They also have an index here to get an easy overview: Swan and Dolphin Recipe Club Archives (http://www.swandolphin.com/recipeclub/archives.html)
I have a question about the Celery Root Bisque with Peppered Croutons as this is a recipe I've had a question mark behind as regards it coming from Disney. The first time I saw it on Disney Recipes Homestead (http://disneyrecipes.homestead.com/soups.html) it was attributed to the 2001 Food and Wine Festival but in all the times it appears in online recipe collections it's attributed to a March 1991 issue of Bon Appetit. http://www.bigoven.com/55155-Celery-Root-Bisque-with-Peppered-Croutons-recipe.html ; http://www.cooking-recipe.org/recipe/celery-root-bisque-with-peppered-croutons.html and elsewhere. The only place it's NOT listed is at Bon Appetit's own site (epicurious.com. ) Of 242 recipes for 1991 there's nothing even close.
I was wondering how the Boma connection came about?
The version I have of the Tamarind Sauce is different ehnpugh that I may as well post it.
Tamarind BBQ Sauce (for use with Spare Ribs or Fish)
Boma, Animal Kingdom Lodge
3 cups Chili Sauce
1/2 cup Tamarind Paste (strain out seeds and dilute in water)
1 cup water
1/2 cup Brown Sugar
1/4 cup Honey
1 cup Soy Sauce
1/2 cup Balsamic Vinegar
1 7-oz. can Chipotle Peppers
1 Poblano Pepper, seeded and chopped
1 cup white onions, chopped
1/2 cup garlic, rough chopped
2 teaspoons Cinnamon
2 Tablespoons Ground Coriander
3 Tablespoons Crushed Red Pepper
In a small bowl, soak tamarind paste in one cup of water. Let sit for 10 minutes. Using your hand, break the pulp from the seed. Place seed in cheesecloth and juice on the pot. Put all ingredients into a small pot and bring to a boil. Simmer for about 45 minutes. Mix and puree all ingredients in a blender. Cool. Mix half and half with Teriyaki Sauce (see recipe) below.
Teriyaki Sauce
Boma, AKL & Epcot Food and Wine Festival
¾ - 1 cup Sugar (to taste)
1 cup Soy Sauce, low sodium
1/2 cup water (optional)
3 Tablespoons Garlic, peeled and chopped
1 Tablespoon Ginger root, peeled and chopped

I have a question about the Celery Root Bisque with Peppered Croutons as this is a recipe I've had a question mark behind as regards it coming from Disney. The first time I saw it on Disney Recipes Homestead (http://disneyrecipes.homestead.com/soups.html) it was attributed to the 2001 Food and Wine Festival but in all the times it appears in online recipe collections it's attributed to a March 1991 issue of Bon Appetit. http://www.bigoven.com/55155-Celery-Root-Bisque-with-Peppered-Croutons-recipe.html ; http://www.cooking-recipe.org/recipe/celery-root-bisque-with-peppered-croutons.html and elsewhere. The only place it's NOT listed is at Bon Appetit's own site (epicurious.com. ) Of 242 recipes for 1991 there's nothing even close.
I was wondering how the Boma connection came about? <snip>
I am sooo embarrassed! I would even have told you that we'd eaten that at Boma & it was sent to me by the chefs there. :confused3 That's what happens when you haven't been "home" in so long! Everything gets "mushed" together - at least in my old brain. ;)
Somehow I have that recipe in both my 2001 F&WF folder and my Boma folder. But in looking back through my old, saved emails, that recipe isn't in the set from Boma...I didn't even request it from them. So it must be faulty memory. :blush: And when I checked the AllEars site for what was served at the 2001 F&W Festival, there it was! http://www.allearsnet.com/tp/ep/fw2001_pr.htm
PNWmom - :welcome: to the thread! Thanks for sharing those recipes. And for anyone looking at that index of Swan & Dolphin recipes - just a word to the wise. I had gotten some recipes back in 2002 that have since been dropped off the index...so they don't keep them there forever. If you see something you want, copy it - don't count on it being there forever. ;) I noticed because I was looking for a photo that I hadn't copied.

I compiled this little note for my group and thought it may be of use here too. I hope you don't mind.
************************************************** ****
I thought I would take a few minutes to share some really good sites with you and also tell you how to request the recipes directly from Disney.
To see what the recipe menus look like you can go to http://www.allearsnet.com/menu/menus.htm and view what the parks and restaurants are serving.
To request recipes from Disney World in Orlando you can go to this link and send the request from there using the form.
https://secure.disney.go.com/wdw/contact/contactUs
To contact Disneyland in California you can visit this link and scroll down to make your recipe request via the form.
https://secure-disneyland.disney.go.com/disneyland/en_US/help/contactUs?name=ContactUsPage
You can also go to http://www.google.com/ and type in any of the following keywords (remove the quotation marks) to locate many recipes.
"disney recipe"
"epcot recipe"
"disney mgm recipe"
"epcot food and wine festival recipe"
"disney cruise line recipe"
"animal kingdom recipe"
"waly disney recipe"
So, there are options for anyone who really does want to assist in locating recipes for group.

That's a great resource! Thanks for posting it!
I'm thinking that it would be good to include this info in the index thread. (The locked one at the top of the forum.) That way it wouldn't get lost. Would you mind if I quoted your post over there? The only thing is that I'm not sure people would scroll to the bottom of the page - through the other 5 lists. Any suggestions? I could just move them all down one & put this at the top if you think that would be best.
All this is assuming you don't mind if I quote it over there, of course.

I have been on this thread since it first started and it just seems the sense of community is slowly ebbing away solely to expand recipe collections......this thread has always been as much about the friendly conversation as much as it has been about recipes. The originator of this thread spent as much time discussing recipes and food as she did listing recipes. Seems like so many just want to bulk up their collections and could care less about those who are on here to enjoy the people and the discussions which have always been an important part of this thread. Again, just my opinion.

Yes contributing members.
I *do* hope that the information on how to locate and request recipes will bring new CONTRIBUTING members out of the shadows. It will be a great thing for everyone who reads this board.
No one said anything or implied anything close to to the assumptions that you made.
I think the intention of all of us who post recipes is to share. If we took issue with those who didn't post recipes we wouldn't be willing to share the recipes that we spend time collecting. I know for a fact that we enjoy sharing these recipe. It would be nice however if more members took a few moments to do the same.
Regardless of the level of contribution, the recipes are for all to enjoy.

Hello, I've been reading all the posts and recipes for a while now, I guess that makes me a lurker. Anyway, I have a couple of questions...How long does it take for the wonderful Disney people to get back to you when you make a request for a recipe? It's been a really long time since I sent one for Savory Beef in Spicy Broth, from the Nine Dragons in Epcot. I've also searched other sites and can't find it. I was hoping to make it for my Dad, he loved it when we were there last year. Thank you for any help or input you guys have!!!

:wave2: Hi NNJDizAngel! It's so nice to have you join us! :teeth:
The length of time requests take varies quite a bit. Recently several people got rather quick results and others still haven't heard. Recipes tend to come directly from the restaurants, not a single office for all parks & resorts. Some are more willing or less busy than others I guess.
I know as we get closer to summer, email requests tend to take "back burner" as they get busier for the season. Our best hope is that someone would be willing to ask for the recipe while dining in the restaurant. Those requests usually get a better response.
Having said that, I will try to see if my contact at Epcot is still there. It's been a while since I asked for a recipe from them & she may have left. As always, if you get it - share! ;)

apostolic4life!!! I was hoping we'd see you back here - though I know you must be terribly busy with your adorable new addition. I had posted a question for you (it might have been about a piece of equipment) but now I can't remember exactly what recipe it was regarding.
My feelings on the "sense of community", is that it's hard to sustain that sense when it's essentially the same trio posting most of time. It's probably the same feeling as cooking to an empty restaurant or performing to an empty hall night after night. I frequently troll the Disney restaurant boards (I'm sure you see me posting there) and add links back to here in the hopes that we'll get the avid foodies posting on all aspects of Disney food and recipes. We do get new people coming in to post requests and what isn't sustainable in the long run is having 3 or 4 of us writing to Guest Relations trying to get these recipes for posters. They will get tired of us - if they haven't already :rolleyes1
In any case, I know things will slow down in the summer - because Disney gets too busy from now until after the Food and Wine Festival to bother with recipe requests. Personally, I leave town on June 12 and will be spending a lot of time traveling from then until the end of October. I plan to buy a laptop and will be checking in - but not as much, as it might be kind of pricey.

:goodvibes I made this recipe today and it didn't come out *quite* like the soup at Rose and Crown. It wasn't as thick and creamy, and it was too light in color. So I'm not sure if this was the same recipe that I was thinking of, but next time I will try to make it with less chicken broth (maybe only three quarts?) and heavy cream instead of half and half.
Now, does anyone have the recipe for the Western Chicken Pasta they are currently serving at the Whispering Canyon Cafe? Thanks!
I noticed a new recipe on allears today called Katie Coyote’s Grilled Chicken Pasta, could that be it? I'll post it anyway, there seems to be a lot of steps involved, but it sounds very good. (hope thats ok with all of you)
Yield 4 servings
Boursin Cream Sauce
Ingredients
1 Cup White Wine
2 Cups Heavy Cream
2 tablespoons Shallots, finely diced
1 Cup Boursin Cheese

1/2 tablespoon Olive Oil
To Taste Salt and Pepper
2 Each Poblano Peppers
Method of Preparation

2. If you have a gas-top stove, place your Poblano Peppers right on top of the burner. Roast the Poblano Peppers on all sides until they are blackened.
3. If you do not have a gas-top stove, you can put them on a baking
sheet in the oven under the broiler, but be sure to keep an eye on them so they do not burn. Broil Poblano Peppers on all sides until they are blackened.
4. Under cold water, peel and de-seed the Peppers and dice. Set aside.
Blackened Chicken Breast
Ingredients
2 - 8 ounce Chicken Breasts
To Taste Blackening Seasoning of your choice

Rose & Crown Potato Leek Soup
Makes 16-18 ounces
Ingredients:
6 potatoes
4 quarts heavy cream
1 onion, diced
2 bunches leeks
1/4 cup butter
salt & pepper to taste
Cut up potatoes then place in a container covered with water so they won't turn brown, then set aside.
Cut off the green tops of the leeks, you just want to use the white part. Cut up leeks & then place them in water to get the dirt off them.
In a heavy pot, melt the butter & then add the onion and leeks.
Cook them for 5-10 minutes. Add cut up potatoes, then add cream.
Let soup simmer until the potatoes are cooked. This will vary due to the size of the potatoes.
When the potatoes are cooked, puree soup with a hand blender until smooth.
Then season with salt & pepper.
I was wondering if anyone had tried this recipe? My fiance loved :love: the soup when we were there last year in July, seriously he talks about it all the time, and has been begging me to take him back to Rose & Crown when we are they on our honeymoon in September. I would like to surprise him with it at home, but don't want to attempt to make it if it doesn't taste like the "real" soup there. Any suggestions on thoughts on it would be appreciated! Thanks :goodvibes

Greeneyes - Tatania posted that same question about Katie Coyote’s Grilled Chicken Pasta vs Western Chicken Pasta when she shared the recipe on page 141. What's throwing me is that the menus online all show it as Western Chicken Pasta. :confused3
Just a reminder, the index is listed at http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=1777635 or stickied to the top of the Cooking forum. There are separate lists by restaurant & by course. There is also a list of all the posts where people shared reviews, tweaks, or tips for the recipes in addition to the request list. The thread is locked to keep all conversation over here, so if you have any questions either post them here or you can PM me. :thumbsup2
I have a super busy day, so I'm only sharing 1 recipe today: Durban Spiced Roast Chicken Salad. Parts of it have been shared, but not the whole thing. It looks ridiculous to make. But honestly, it isn't! This was the one recipe DH requested after our stay & I waited a year before I finally caved in & made it. I now make this often during the summer, although I don't bake the chicken...we make it on the grill. When I received the recipe from the chefs at Boma, it was for 50 people! :eek: I've cut it down so that it serves 5. If anyone wants the original for 50 to make your own conversions, just send me a PM. Also, we like the salad "wet" so I make the full 8 serving dressing recipe. I put about ¾ on the salad & then put the rest on the table so those who want more can add it. The extra Durban spice keeps well all summer if you don't use it all at once. ;) This always gets rave reviews when I make it for company, but it's too good to wait to serve only then. LOL

Greeneyes - Tatania posted that same question about Katie Coyote’s Grilled Chicken Pasta vs Western Chicken Pasta when she shared the recipe on page 141. What's throwing me is that the menus online all show it as Western Chicken Pasta. :confused3

This recipe is from Bongo's Cuban Cafe, it is located in downtown disney and it's my favorite place to eat while I'm shopping. I always share Papas Rellenas, a cuban sandwich and plantains with my husband. The atmosphere is fabulous and the food is even better!
Cuban Sandwich Bongos Cuban Cafe
12-inch long Cuban bread
1/2 teaspoon mayonnaise
1/2 teaspoon mustard
3 ounces serrano ham, thinly sliced
3 ounces roasted pork, thinly sliced
1/2- ounce pickle slices
3 ounces Swiss cheese, thinly sliced
Cut bread in half, vertically down the center, with a serrated knife.
This will create 2 (6-inch) halves. Take both 6-inch halves and slice
horizontally down the center, making a top and bottom loaf. Spread a thin
layer of mayonnaise on each top half and a thin layer of mustard on each
bottom half. Arrange the ham and pork evenly on each half, then stack the
pickle slices and cheese on each half.
Grill the sandwiches in a buttered sandwich press until they are flat,
the bread is browned, and the cheese has melted. Cut each sandwich in half
and serve at once.

Hi everyone! I posted a while back that I was trying to get the recipe for the lasagna at Tutto Italia. I finally heard back from WDW yesterday, but unfortunately, they told me that TI (not owned by Disney) told them that since they were such a new restaurant, they were not yet giving out their recipes :sad2: Maybe I'll have more luck asking in person when I'm there this September for a few days. LMK if anyone is actually able to get the recipe before then. Thanks for your help Tatania!

Thank you! I appreciate it greatly!!! A contact at Epcot, wow, I'm kinda jealous LOL. I submitted my request again, if I hear back I will post it. Thanks again!

I've requested some recipes from our list and as soon as I hear back I'll let you all know.
Fingers crossed! I'm also hoping to hear back about some recipes - esp. for Olivia's Cafe.
Just wanted to let you guys know that I appreciate all recipes you post here. I haven't been able to make any yet but I do have some written down. I just need time to cook. I can't wait to get to WDW next year and try them in person.
Thanks so much for letting us know. It's fun to collect recipes while in WDW so let us know when you go and we'll let you know our requests :goodvibes
Rose & Crown Potato Leek Soup. I was wondering if anyone had tried this recipe?I haven't tried this recipe but generally have good results with all Disney recipes - even if it doesn't taste exactly like the restaurant version.
Durban Spiced Roast Chicken Salad. I love this recipe and the spices are fabulous. I highly recommend it to everyone.
Thanks Tatania for the scalloped potatoes recipe from Narcoossees. I can't wait to make them tonight. Let us know how it turns out :)
apostolic4life - I remember what I asked. It was from the Banana and Butterscotch "Buzz" recipe. When making the plantains - how wide is a deli slicer #8 and what is a marituff? Have you worked with cocoa nibs and are they really expensive?

apostolic4life - I remember what I asked. It was from the Banana and Butterscotch "Buzz" recipe. When making the plantains - how wide is a deli slicer #8 and what is a marituff? Have you worked with cocoa nibs and are they really expensive?
I looked at the recipe and it calls for #15 and #8 on the slicer, but that number can mean different things to different slicer manufacturers. From reading the recipe, I gather if you slice them between 1/4 and 1/8 of an inch thick you will be in good shape. When frying a plantain for a chip you want the slice thin so it will release it's moisture quickly and crisp up. I would even suggest immediately after frying the chip sprinkle it with a little sugar while it is still hot.......just like salt on potato chips. This would give a little more sweetness to the chip since it is used on a dessert (the extras will be good for snacking later too).
I think you may mean a maratuff; basically it is an industrial paper towel along the lines of a chick towel or wype-all.
Cocoa Nibs can be very pricey, but often they can be purchased scant quantities if a local market even carries them. Many grocery chains don't carry them because the general public does not use them often enough. Maybe check with a specialty food shop or even a bakery to see if they have some they would sell you.
I hope this info is a worthy contribution to the thread.........;)

Wow! Have I gotten behind here. It's been a busy few days, but I hope to get caught up in a bit. I see a few things that I want to comment on first.
Sorry. I haven't read every post in the thread.:blush:
No one expects you to..especially me! It took me more than a week to go back through the entrie thread when I first started keeping the index. I wanted to make sure I had a feel for what you all were used to, make sure no requests or recipes were missed - that type of thing. I hope I didn't offend you by mentioning it. :hug: I admit I used it as an excuse to let our new posters know about our index & where it was located.
JAMBA JUICE RECIPES FOR PIRATESMATE'S HUBBY :hug:
Thanks so much for those recipes! He was very excited about them! I have a feeling I may be getting a new blender/smoothie maker/food processor type thing for my anniversary next week. ;) I'm still using my original f rom 33 yrs ago! :eek:

Top that with the remaining bread cubes and then the remaining apricots and coconut. Distribute evenly. In a sauce pan, heat milk, coconut cream, vanilla and granulated sugar until the sugar completely dissolves and the milk is tepid but not hot. Stir occasionally. Remove from heat. In a separate mixing bowl, beat the eggs, then temper them by slowly adding 1 cup of warm milk mixture while stirring. Slowly pour the egg/milk mixture back in the warm milk and stir until well incorporated. Ladle the mixture over the bread, making sure all the bread gets moist. Cover the foil and bake in a water bath for 1 hour. Remove foil and bake for another 5-10 minutes until golden.

I feel like I'm sleepwalking but I wanted to post a my reviews before I have head off to work. I love trying the Disney recipes we collect here, so when I give a dinner I tend to go all out, :rolleyes1 :guilty: which is why I'm pretty frazzled afterwards.
The " Mother's Day" dinner was for 10 and here's what I made:
Cocktails (I give folks a cocktail menu and not all of them get chosen):
People had: Sour Apple Chiller (p. 99) one of my all time favorite drinks and clearly a party favorite; Green Gator (below) - very popular and the most requested drink; and Mississippi Mudslide (below) - Creamy and delicious.
Apptizers: Chicken Drums Glazed with Samuel Adams Boston Lager (p. 36).
: Kalamata Olive Flatbread & Basic Flatbread (below)
The chicken sauce used 1 cup of garlic chili (the hot Chinese version, I assumed), and to say it was incendiary was an understatement. I was so worried about the final result that I scooted out and bought some backup ginger garlic chicken wings at Safeway. I needn't have worried, because the finished result was delicious. I used a different lager, which is fine, because you can't taste the beer at all. I used the Kraft blue cheese dressing as the basis for the dipping sauce - so if you can come out with a better dressing you get a better result.
The Flat Bread dough was unlike anything I had worked with before. It was very wet even after having been refrigerated overnight and left out during the day. There was no way you could roll it and move it, so I greased and sprinkled cornmeal on some cookie sheets and roll the dough flat right on the sheets. The texture was like thick cornmush. I would have made it thinner if I'd had more sheet space - but I didn't - so mine ended up a lot thicker than the photo and took longer to bake. I had studied the photo and clearly the olives are not added until the end. I added the boursin cheese and the olives in the last 10 minutes of baking and sprinkled the finished result with chopped watercress as micro greens are impossible to get. I think this has the potential to be very good if the dough can be spread thinner. It was still good but I felt the dough was a little thick. The recipe makes a LOT.
Salad: Salade de Chevre Chaud (p. 141) served with Sunflower Seed Bread (below)
The salad recipe uses the same old Chefs de France dressing recipe from Cooking with Mickey Volume 2 - which is good but not the best I've had from Disney. This is a salad with a lot of interesting ingredients and the warm goat cheese adds a nice touch - but it didn't get the raves I was hoping for so I probably wouldn't make it again.
The bread was delicious with loads of sunflower seeds in it.
Entree - Jiko: BBQ Braised Beef Short Ribs (p. 136)
- Sweet Potato Puree - Le Cellier (p. 72)
Garlic Sauteed Spinach (like Jiko)
This course delivered the knockout punch. The guests loved the braised short ribs - especially the sauce. I served up one short rib per plate and it sat on the sweet potato purée - just like at the restaurant. For the sauce I had put in organic Ethiopian coffee (instead of Kenyan), a high end BBQ sauce from Williams and Sonoma, beef broth, onions and garlic etc. Even though my roasting pan was securely covered, the uncovered parts of the ribs were turning black after 5 hours of roasting - despite the fact that I was also turning them around. I wonder if our chef can give some tips as to how to roast something for 7 hours and not have it turn black at the edges?
Watch the milk amount in the potato puree as minje ended up being very soft. It worked for this recipe because the pictures of the dish all show soft mashed potatoes under the meat.
Dessert: Crystal Palace Coconut Flan (page 140)
The guests could barely eat anything after this but they managed to down healthy portions of the coconut flan because it tasted so good. Mine ended up with a nice dense texture which may have come about because I accidentally used the Cream of Coconut instead of the Coconut milk. This is definitely one I'll make again.
I was meaning to take pictures of it all, but of course, in the heat of the moment I didn't! By next dinner party is next Monday night so I have to start planning my next Disney recipes now.
Green Gator Cocktail

1 1/2 ounces Midori Melon Liqueur

Fill a tall glass with ice, pour in alcohol, fill the rest of the way with pineapple juice, mix and enjoy! They serve the drink with a plastic glow-stick as a swizzle stick, which gives the drink an eerie, magical radiance.

Spicy Beef in Sichuan Broth
I'm so happy for you that the recipe was sent by Nine Dragons. Persistence often pays off, LOL. However, one of the places that has never replied is the Joy of Tea where I was hoping to get the Mango Tea Slushie.
The Concourse Steakhouse is closing very soon so if anyone is going there, this is the last chance to get recipes.

Today I heard back from Epcot about the Cheesecake at the Coral Reef!:cool1:
The BAVARIAN CHEESECAKE recipe that can be found on page 144 of this thread is the recipe that was used at the Coral Reef (thats what was sent to me) and they also sent the recipe for the berry sauce topping that the Coral Reef serves with it (when we had it, it wasn't poured over the cake just sitting in the bowl under the chessecake).
Berry Compote for Cheesecake
Coral Reef
INGREDIENTS
Blackberries (frozen)1 cup
Raspberries (frozen)1 cup
Strawberries (frozen)2 cup
Blueberries (frozen)1 cup
Sugar (granulated) 1 cup.
Water 1 cup.
Gelatin Powder 1 tea spoon
Corn starch 2 tea spoons
METHOD
Simmer strawberries with sugar and half of the water until slightly thickened. Then dissolve the gelatin in ¼ cup of cold water and set aside. Add the cornstarch to the remaining water and dissolve. Slowly pour in the cornstarch to the fruit mixture, then fold in the rest of the berries and simmer for few minutes more. Take it off the stove and add the dissolved gelatin . Stir gently. Cool the compote before portioning it into glasses. Chill and serve.
This compote is best served topped with good Vanilla sauce. Enjoy

Well I can't believe I just found out this thread existed....and I've been on the DIS boards for years!! I'm so excited to find all these recipes, especially the Kona sticky wings. I have a question about the order of the recipe though: The directions say to deep fry them, but it also gives directions for poaching liquid. Do I poach them first,then fry them just to crisp them up? Then, drench them in the wing sauce to serve?
I'm also trying to locate the recipe for the sweet bread that Kona serves at dinner with the macadamia butter. I see a recipe for the dinner bread at Ohana, but I don't think it's the same thing....??
Thanks for any help...looking forward to trying many more Disney recipes!

Do I poach them first,then fry them just to crisp them up? Then, drench them in the wing sauce to serve?
The poaching is done for two reasons: 1. often restaurants will poach or par-boil chicken before deep frying to ensure completely cooked meat 2. poaching liquid will impart flavor through the meat which will add to the flavor of the end product. The poaching here is probably used to ensure complete cooking since the meat found in a wing is often adequately flavored by the sauce applied to it.
Hope this helps!

I'm just as excited to find another Disney recipe fan. I loved that sweet bread with the Macadamia butter as well and got in touch with one of the managers at the Polynesian in the hopes of getting the bread recipe. He wrote me that he had forwarded my request to the kitchen and that they'd get back to me. This was months ago and they never did. Do you think you could send in a request and see if you have better luck?
I made several Disney recipes this week including some for dinner party tonight. It's very late and I'm tired (almost 4 am) but I'll write a very quick review.
Dijon Rubbed Beef Tenderloin (DCL) - basic garlic and mustard rub but works well.
Balsamic Smothered Mushrooms (page 143). These are part of the Grilled Pork Tenderloin dish at the California Grill with the idea being that the balsamic sauce gets ladled over the polenta. On its own there is too much sauce for the mushrooms and unless you're using a fabulous balsamic vinegar, I'd definitely use less as it's a little heavy on the vinegar taste.
Curried Butternut Squash Soup & Samosa's with Tamarind Chutney (Food and Wine Festival 2007, India) - These 2 recipes from the Food and Wine Festival cookbook were part of an Indian menu made for a dinner party and they were very successful starters. The soup was absolutely delicious with a slightly sweet taste and a smooth, silky texture. The samosas didn't have the crispy texture of the deep-fried ones but I prefer them baked because I don't like wasting oil and calories in deep frying unless it's absolutely necessary. The recipe wasn't strictly authentic in any case because it used phyllo rubbed with oil for the pastry casing - something no self-respecting Indian cook would ever use. Having said that this was a popular dish and they vanished as quickly as they were put on the table. The Tamarind Chutney had everyone asking for the recipe as it's a complex flavor of cumin, black mustard and sesame seeds with dates and tamarind. I can transcribe the recipes later this week if anyone is interested and thinks they might like to make this.
Alfajores de Lúcuma (page 138) I mail ordered the Lúcuma puree from Peru and used Dulce de Leche from Argentina. Having good Lúcuma puree it is important and I think fresh would have been the best. This is a very rich dessert - tasting a little like puréed figs mixed with cream and Dulce de Leche. I liked it but wouldn't rush to make it again.

Sorry I've been MIA. It's been a busy week!
Reviews of things I've made this week:
Boma's Flank Steak Marinade (version 2 on page 8) Excellent as always! :thumbsup2 I've tried using ground ginger when I ran out of fresh & ended up with a more paste-like consistency. It's still good, but you really can't beat the flavor of fresh ginger root! If you end up with more than you'll use, I recently tried freezing it per Rachel Ray. No more waste and the flavor & consistency was fine. :thumbsup2 Just peel it first, then cut into 1 inch pieces & pop into a plastic bag.
Boma's Cured Pork Loin (page 130) I skipped the Coconut Curry Sauce this time. It's still good without it - not too dry and I think the flavors of the spices stands out more. The smell of the cinnamon almost drove DD crazy waiting for it to be done! ;)
Polynesian's Citrus Rice (recipe below) DD wasn't thrilled with this. She didn't care for the citrus peel, although I have to admit I used dried zest I get from the spice store. Because it was dried, I added it to the water when I boiled the rice. DH & I really, really liked it - even with the dried zest. I'm going to try it again and do it properly. ;) (I'll just keep a serving aside for DD without the zest.) DH gets tired of rice pilaf all the time. Oh - and I didn't do the last step of baking it in a buttered casserole.
I'm also trying to locate the recipe for the sweet bread that Kona serves at dinner with the macadamia butter. I see a recipe for the dinner bread at Ohana, but I don't think it's the same thing....??
I've updated the lists through this post. Thanks everyone for adding recipes, reviews & assistance! And it's nice to see some new posters too! :teeth:

I have spent the last two days going through this thread and printing recipes to try. I am only on page 60 but I plan to keep going until I have read every post.
I checked the index and I don't see the dish I am looking for. We had dinner at Chef Mickey's in Oct and my DD really enjoyed a dish there. I don't know the name of it but it was like a chicken potpie. It had chicken potatoes and other veggies. I'm sorry that isn't much help. If anyone has any idea I would appreciate the help.

Thanks for joining us here! We always enjoy hearing from new people. :cheer2:
I've added your request to our list also found in the index thread at: http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=1777635 (See post #5)
I did a quick check & think what you're looking for is called "Roasted Turkey Pot Pie". The menu listing for Chef Mickey's here on The DIS shows it under the "Chef's Buffet Specials" section. Have you tried requesting the recipe? There are addresses listed in post 4 of the index thread.

Does anyone have the recipe for onion soup served at WL's Artist Point? They haven't served it in probably 6 or 7 years and I miss it.
TIA
The "What Disney Recipes Have You Tried?" thread has been moved to the Cooking forum. I saw this request over there & was hoping that someone might have this recipe in one of the older Disney Cookbooks. Anyone?

Hi, Tatiana requested that I post my modified recipe for Boma's Cocomisu. The original has so many ingredients that are difficult to find, so with much trial and trial (all yummy though!), here is what worked for me. Bon Apetit!
Ingredients:
Ingredients for PART 1:
1 cup Sugar
2 cups Water
1 cup shredded coconut
1/4 can Coco Lopez (found in the Mexican aisle of the supermarket, or liquor stores. If you can't find it try 1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk with 2 tablespoons coconut extract. Doesn't work quite as well though)
1/2 cup milk (skim is fine)
1 cup Kahlua Liquor
30 pieces Ladyfingers (do NOT use any from Trader Joes, not soft enough)
Ingredients for PART 2:
2 envelopes powdered Gelatin
2 TBLS cold water
1 cup shredded coconut
1/4 can Coco Lopez (found in the Mexican aisle of the supermarket, or liquor stores. If you can't find it try 1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk with 2 tablespoons coconut extract. Doesn't work quite as well though)
1/2 cup milk (skim is fine)
Ingredients for PART 3:
3 pounds Mascarpone Cheese
1 pound Powder Sugar
8 each Egg Yolks
½ can Coco Lopez
1 quart Heavy Cream
1 cup Toasted Coconut
Method:
Part 1
1. Make syrup by boiling water and sugar in a saucepot. Once it boils, remove from flame and transfer into another container. Mix shredded coconut, 1/4 can coco lopez, and 1/2 cup skim milk together. Mix this with the sugar water and Kahlua.
2. Soak each ladyfinger while syrup is still warm and set aside on a sheet pan.
Part 2
3. Sprinkle gelatin over cold water until soft.
4. Make another batch of shredded coconut, 1/4 can coco lopez, and 1/2 cup skim milk together. Place gelatin and this mixture in a small bowl. Place over a hot bath to dissolve the gelatin. Set aside.
Part 3
5. Boil water. Once the water boils carefully add eggs and cook for 5 minutes. Remove eggs and immediately crack open and remove egg yolks into a small bowl. Discard whites. This helps kill bacteria while not cooking the yolks.
6. In the mixer, whip mascarpone cheese with powder sugar. Add yolks, Coco Lopez and heavy cream. Whip until thick.
7. Temper some of this mixture in step 4 and put it back with the rest of the mixture from step 4.
8. Continue to whip until mixture has doubled. Be careful not to over whip and curdle the cheese.
9. Place soaked ladyfingers on the bottom of desired deep dish, about 4 inches deep. Ladle about an inch and a half of the filling.
10. Place another layer of ladyfingers, then ladle another layer of filling.
11. Smooth the top with a spatula, and then sprinkle the top with toasted coconut.
Note: I usually end up with lots of extra filling from Step 7. This freezes well. You can probably cut down and adjust the ingredients needed in step 7.
Enjoy and let me know how it turns out!

Yield: 8 Servings
2 chicken breasts, cooked and diced
1 pound russet potatoes, cooked and diced
2 cups frozen corn kernels
1/8 cup diced onion
1/8 cup diced red pepper
1 cup heavy cream (I usually buy the one that says "whipping")
1 cup milk
2 tsp sugar
2 t hot saYiuce (I don't like this and skip it)
1/8 cup fresh parsley
1 chicken bouillon cube dissolved in 1 cup water
Bring chicken stock to a boil.
Add milk, cream, chicken, potatoes, peppers, onion, corn and sugar.
Add parsley and hot sauce and simmer for 5 minutes
Serve hot.
*I always double this as it is SO good. It's a hit at pitch-ins! Red pepper is expensive so I cut one up into chunks and freeze the chunks in baggies so I have it on hand when I make the recipe next time.

I'm just as excited to find another Disney recipe fan. I loved that sweet bread with the Macadamia butter as well and got in touch with one of the managers at the Polynesian in the hopes of getting the bread recipe. He wrote me that he had forwarded my request to the kitchen and that they'd get back to me. This was months ago and they never did. Do you think you could send in a request and see if you have better luck?
:thumbsup2 I'll see what I can do!

I'm crazy about all things coconut and have really wanted to try this but the coconut puree had me stalled. Thanks SO much for this and the Boma recipe. Can't wait to try it. :cool1:

Wonder if those are recipes from the New Tusker House menu? I've heard that they are trying to be more in line with what is served at the AKL.
Thanks for adding them. :thumbsup2

Congratulations on your "Disneymoon". I love your idea of having the magic live on by making a Disney meal once a month. Many of the recipes are so simple and good that I actually use them all the time. The ones that piratesmate just reviewed are good examples of that. I keep the Boma Pork Rub handy in the fridge and just add to it when it gets low. I haven't found a better Pork Rub anywhere.
The California Grill menu posted at AllEars has "Oak-fired Filet of Beef with cheese orecchiette pasta gratin, sauteed asparagus, teriyaki BBQ sauce" and I was given the Teriyaki BBQ sauce recipe. It's posted on page 89.
The Grilled Pork Tenderloin comes with the polenta and they keep changing it slightly. The version from Cooking with Mickey and the Disney Chefs (2004) is on page 68 and uses the Garlic and Herb Polenta.

Looking for recipes from Grand Floridian's Garden Tea. We ate there last week and loved everything we ate. I will take any recipe, but here are our biggest requests:
1) Scones - super yummy and served warm
2) Roasted Pear and Gorgonzola tea sandwich
3) Chicken Salad from the Mrs. Potts tea (for kids)
4) Chicken Salad tea sandwich (made with orange marmalade and almonds(?))
5) Onion Tart
Also, I thought there was a previous post for Boma's Apple Vinagrette, but for some reason I can't find it.
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!:worship:

I have an Onion Tart recipe from Citrico's which is probably close if not the same.
Onion Tart
Citrico’s – Grand Floridian, Chef Gray Byrum
Yield: 4 to 6 servings.
2 Tbl olive oil
1 large onion
2 cloves garlic
1 bay leaf
Salt and white pepper to taste
1 pckg puff pastry, thawed
2 eggs
2 Tbl milk
2 Tbl heavy cream
¼ c shredded manchego** cheese, plus additional cheese for sprinkling
1. Heat oven to 400 F.
2. Peel and slice the onion. Add olive oil to a large skillet over medium heat. Add onions. Chop the garlic cloves and add to the pan along with a bay leaf. Season with salt and white pepper to taste. Let the onions sizzle until golden and caramelized.
3. Cut puff pastry into circles using a 31/2-inch ring molds and carefully stretch dough to fit snugly into greased four-inch tart pans. With the tip of knife or the tines of a fork, prick dough with the tip of a knife; set aside.
4. In a large mixing bowl, combine the eggs, milk, heavy cream and shredded Manchego cheese.
5. To assemble, mound the caramelized onions in the prepared tart pans. Top off with some of the egg mixture. Sprinkle with additional Manchego cheese and bake the tarts for 10 to 12 minutes or until golden brown and set. Serve warm.
Step 1: The chef cuts puff pastry into circles to fit into tart pans
Step 2: The dough is gently stretched to fit up the sides of the pan.
Step 3: Caramelized onions are mounded into the tart pans.
Step 4: The egg-and-cheese mixture is poured over the onions.
**Manchego (mahn-CHAY-goh) cheese adds a rich, mellow layer to this tart. From Spain, it was originally made only from the milk of Manchego sheep that grazed the famous plains of La Mancha, according to the Food Lover's Companion by Sharon Tyler Herbst. The two that are most commonly exported are curado and viejo.

Hmm, you probably don't mean the Grand Marnier Orange Slush? Anyway I posted both the recipes on page 66 and have made them. They were just as good as at Epcot despite the fact that I used a blender and not a slushy machine.
I made the Roasted Chicken Linguine from Shutters tonight. It was delicious!!
One of my faves as well.
YUM!!! yep - that's the one! thank you!!! is the reciepe for the pasta gratin somewhere here as well?
I don't think we have that one but will PM you the name of someone at the Resort who is pretty good about giving the recipes IF they are available. Might as well ask for the entire recipe while you're at it;)
I heard back from Chef Mickey's about the Roasted Turkey Pot Pie and they advised me "that we do not have a recipe for your request that has been "broken down" for individual- or family-sized preparation. The recipe is written in large batch, 20-30 gallon size quantities for Chef Mickey's Buffet. Sorry that we can't help and thanks for understanding. ".

Short Ribs:
Below are the bullet point to actually make the recipe - our varies just a but because of the large quantities that we produce, but overall this will yield you a great product Every time you make them it may differ a bit based on the amount you product and the flavor you want. Here are the rough bullet points to produce this and I hope this helps:
* Season the ribs by rubbing them well with olive oil, salt and black pepper
* Sear them just to brown them in a heavy bottomed pan at high heat (careful - this will be a little messy and the hot grease will pop out of the pan and can burn you - wear long sleeves!!!)
* Place the seared ribs into an oven-proof roasting pan that has a tight fitting lid. * Along with the ribs, place your liquid, enough to cover 2/3rds of the meat, (beef broth, red wine, thin BBQ sauce with ground coffee if you like) 1-2 large diced onions, and 8-10 whole garlic cloves) Place the lid on it securely and place it in a 275 degree oven for about 7 hours. It is important not to rush the cooking time because the long, slow heat is the key to these being very flavorful and tender.
* When done (the meat will separate easily from the bones with just the touch of a fork), carefully remove them from the liquid so they do not fall apart and transfer the cooking liquid to a saucepan and reduce by half. Remove from the heat, with a stick blended (hand burre mixer - you can also use a blender but the liquid id very hot) puree the sauce with the onions and garlic and this will assist in the thickening of the sauce. Continue to reduce if it is to thin or not the consistency that you would like.
* Pour the sauce over the ribs either on individual plates, or on a family sized platter and enjoy!

Jiko BBQ Chicken Flatbread
Flat Bread:
Here is the dough recipe. The toppings are challenging, because we use
part of a sauce that is bought in, and various chicken cuts. Plus there is a
recipe for a chipilini onion puree, and apple and jicima slaw.
Here is the best attempt at these:
BBQ sauce - good quality sweet style bbq sauce (Cattleman's works good)
and add 1 teaspoon of super fine ground Kenya coffee (process in a
coffee grinder to a fine powder) to 1 cup of the bbq sauce.
Cheese blend - an equal part blend of shredded gruyere, provolone,
asiago, and fontina
Caramelized Chipilini onions - sear about 6 each whole peeled onions in a
heavy bottomed sauté pan over med to low heat for about 15-20 minutes
per side. Then cover and place into a 250 degree over for 90 minutes.
When done, remove the cover and allow to cool. Process in a food
processor or blender until smooth. Season with salt and black pepper.
Chicken - (use the chermoula recipe for the rub on the chicken) rub and
season 6 each skinless chicken thighs and allow them to sit in the cooler
overnight. Roast in a 350 over for about 25-30 or until fully cooked at an
internal temp of 165 degree. Allow to cool to the touch and pull the meat
from the bones and then chill for service.
Apple Slaw - 1/2 cup apple Julianne and 1/2 cup jicima Julianne. Toss
with 1 tablespoon of chopped cilantro, 1 teaspoon of olive oil and 2
tablespoons of lemon juice, salt and pepper to taste. Combine together
thoroughly.
To build the flatbread, roll out the dough into 4 oz pieces, the roll to form
the actual flatbread. Spread onto the dough 1 tablespoons of the bbq
sauce, then spread over that 2 tablespoons of the onion puree. Sprinkle
1/4 cup of cheese blend over the onion mix, then scatter 1/4 cup of the
pulled chicken meat. Place or slide this into a brick pizza over at 700
degrees for about 5-7 minutes. When completed, top with the apple slaw
and drizzle additional bbq sauce over the top.
Lots of steps and pieces! :-)

Where you sent the dough recipe? I don't see it included in the recipe. I made these for a dinner party last week with the basic Millet Flatbread recipe I had (p 146) and the dough was very wet and couldn't be rolled. I ended up sponing it into a cookie sheet and rolling it flat there.
I wondered if you were given something different. The Beef short ribs were delicious; I used Ethiopian organic coffee instead of Kenyan.
