I know how to make a great Antipasta Salad. I've never had Disney's so I have no idea if this is what you guys are looking for.

I worked in the deli of a Winn Dixie years ago, and we used the end pieces of our meat and cheese to make antipasta salad. We then turned around and sold it for $4 a pint. (That was 15 years ago.)

Cut nice grade of ham and turkey into 1/2" to 3/4" cubes,
Cut any combination of American, swiss, jack, provolone, etc. into cubes
1/2" to 3/4"
(I like to have some yellow and some white, but nothing really mushy.) I usually get a deli department to cut thick slabs of the meat for me, and then cube it at home. I usually purchase the blocks of cheese out of the dairy case.
Broccolli (Cut into bite sizes)
Cauliflower (Cut into bite sizes)
Carrots (Optional)
1 can of black olives
1 jar green olives
1 jar banana peppers

Mix all ingredients together until it looks like a really good hodge podge of things. Pour a big whole bottle of Kraft Italian dressing over it. Mix thoroughly. Cover and put in refrigerator to marinate.

You could use salami or other meats as well. However, from experience, don't use any of the cheap meats, ever. Surprisingly, onions don't work at all. THey get slimy, same goes for cucumbers.

I decided to make one of these for the Sunday school a few years ago. It was a great hit, but I haven't made it since because that one cost about $30 to make.

Thanks for posting the recipe!

It was served whole and warm when I was at Epcot in October of 2007. The proscuitto and pomegranate mixture was sprinkled over the top of the duck. I think the duck leg was resting on a bed of mixed greens.

I'm not quite sure how to go from removing it from the oil to plating it the way it was served at the resturant. I remember the duck skin being crispy, but I can't quite imagine the skin being crispy from just simmering the leg.

I thinking that there must be some quick broiling done or something like that. Any one have any suggestions?

To serve confit:
Lift the duck legs out of the fat and wipe off most but not quite all of it with kitchen paper. Put them skin-side up onto a rack resting over a roasting tin and roast for 15-20 minutes until the skin is crisp and golden and the meat has heated through. Alternatively, sauté the legs in a frying pan over a medium heat until crisp, golden and heated through. Or place Duck Legs in an oven dish skin side down under a hot grill for about 5 minutes, turn over and allow to thoroughly heat through and the skin to crisp and brown.

Thanks so much for the other plating info. I'll add it to the recipe.

Has anyone ever tried to make these? I'm thinking about making this with a roasted pork loin on Wednesday night.

This sounds interesting........I am working on an old fashioned root beer recipe to possibly brew in-house for dining room service, and it would be neat to see how this sweet potato recipe would taste with our root beer.

Isn't the Empress Lily now Fulton's? Is it that boat at DTD or am I mistaken?

The Verandah Restaurant used to be in Adventureland. I remember coming across an interesting website that had a bunch of info, but I can't seem to find it right now. A quick internet search gets you some facts.

Oh sorry yes it is Fultons that was my mistake lol always get those 2 confused.

I put a banana in the bag as the produce store suggested it. It didn't really work so I'll try an apple next time. I'd also never heard of adding apples so appreciate the tip.

I never heard of using a banana, but I'm not a fan of them so I don't keep them around much. Honestly, I don't know how well any helpful tips work. It may be wishful thinking on my part that makes me think that it works.

This weekend I tried out two of the recipes - the BLT soup from Sci Fi and the Chicken Asiago Pasta from the All Stars.

The soup was good, but nowhere near as good at Sci Fi. The recipe calls to use canned tomato basil soup, so I used Campbell's Select. It was just a bit too sweet for my taste, so next time I think I'll use just regular tomato soup.

The pasta was very good, but different from what I was expecting. I was assuming it was made with a creamy sauce, but it was instead olive oil with two cheeses melted over the pasta at the last step. It was still delicious, just not what I was expecting!

Thanks for the reviews, Prinny!

I am sooooo thankful for this thread. My DH and I went to DisneyWorld in Dec of 2006 and I fell in love with this recipe at Kona. Of course since I am allergic to wheat the chef seared it with out the crust but the marinade was made with wheat free soy sauce. Anyway I made this dish last night for my sister and her husband (both of whom have never been to the World) and I used a wheat/gluten free All purpose flour to form a crust and it was to die for. Got rave reviews all around. I am saddened to know that it has been removed off the menu though. I wonder what I will try next.

Thanks for the reviews, Kauanoe! "Your version" sounds great!

Does anyone have the recipe for the green beans at the Liberty Tree Tavern? They are so good!

It's been added to the list, TinkerBrie! I will let you know if I or another Diser finds & posts the recipe.

 

[lynninpa]

I think I'm going to try making these this week since I just got a whole bunch of potatoes, and onions, and cheddar. I just need heavy cream.

Let us know how they turn out, disneyfav4ever!

There was a request posted for the Citrus Layer Cake at the Main Street Bakery in MK.
I had left a written request for this recipe while I was there and somebody from Disney Hollywood guest services got back to me today with the recipe for the Grapefruit Cake from the Hollywood Brown Derby. I was very clear that I wanted the cake from Main Street Bakery (though it wasn't there the day I went) so I'm wondering if it's actually the same cake - but renamed for the bakery.

Anyway there's lots of versions of that floating around; it's included in at least 2 of the cookbooks & we have it on page 14. I made it for a friend's birthday last summer and it was fine - but not something I'd go nuts about. Some of the other Disney cake recipes are better, IMO.

One of my favorites is the Ginger Carrot Soup at Boma's!

1 pound carrots, chunky cut
2 cups water
2 cups heavy cream
1 cup milk
2 oz. American cheese (slices or shredded)
1/2 oz. ground fresh ginger
1 oz. sugar, adjust as needed

Roux (2 oz butter and 2 oz. flour) melt the butte in a small souce pot, slowly add the flour to make a paste. Cook untill incorporated, remove from heat and set aside.

In a large pot, cook carrots in water, sugar and ginger. Let simmer until carrots are soft. Using a beurre mixer (I used my Kitchen Aide blender) puree until smooth. Add heavy cream, milk and roux. Cook until soup is hot and slightly thick. Add American cheese and let simmer until cheese melts. Adjust seasoning.

Note: I just made this and my family loved it!

Thank you so so much! You're a star!

So now the only one left is:

Lake Buena Vista club which I think may be Top of the World and now California Grill?

Has anyone ever tried to make these? I'm thinking about making this with a roasted pork loin on Wednesday night.

So I made these for dinner tonight. Yummy!

I did bake the potatoes in the microwave, instead of the oven, and peeled and cut them up after they were already cooked, since that seemed less time consuming to me. So they ended up more like mashed potatoes then baked slices, but whatever.

The glaze was very easy to make, and I followed the recipe for that, and just poured it over the sweet potatoes after I had dumped them in a bowl.
