Entertaining With Lucille
Thumb print cookies have always been a favorite at our family, holiday table. My mom and all my aunts were sure to have this holiday treat! I love to use a combination of pepper jams to create a feast for the eyes as well as the sweet tooth. These cookies keep well in the freezer, so I usually make a double batch and bring them out in waves for holiday parties. You can package these cookies in gift boxes (before filling with jam) and give them with a jar of our pepper jam for a homemade gift that everyone is sure to expect again next year!
We hope that your holiday is filled with great traditions, old and new!

Eight Holiday Greats #4

Lucille's Kitchen Garden Eight Holiday Greats #4!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Roast Pork Shoulder with Rosemary Salt and

Garlic Pepper Glaze
1 5 to 6lbs Pork Shoulder
2 TBS Lucille's Kitchen Garden Rosemary Salt plus 1 TBS to finish
¼ Cup Jameson Irish whiskey
1 Cup Water
3 to 5 generous TBS Lucille's Kitchen Garden Garlic Pepper Jam
1 Medium Yellow Onion sliced into medium thick rings
Generously season the pork shoulder by rubbing with 2 TBS rosemary salt.
Coat the bottom of Dutch oven with oil and brown roast on all sides. I like to
throw a few onion slices in halfway through browning for extra flavor
Deglaze the bottom of the pan with whiskey scraping any brown bits from the bottom
and add water and onions.
Cover and place in 300 degree oven for one hour.
Reheat garlic pepper jam to liquid form. Glaze the pork shoulder generously with
the jam and return uncovered to the oven. Turn the temperature up to 375 degrees
and roast for another hour while the liquid cooks down. Add water if liquid gets
below one inch in the bottom of the pan.
Remove roast and give a light glaze with remaining jam and slice. Use 1 TBS salt
to finish seasoning the shoulder, adjust to taste. Reserve the remaining liquid
in the Dutch oven and serve in gravy boat on the side. (It tastes marvelous over
a baked potato). You can garnish the platter with roast garlic cloves and sprigs
of rosemary.

Lucille's Kitchen Garden: jams with a kick by Roseanne Pereira
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Entertaining With Lucille
Whether it is because of fears of the economy, or the realization that this year
there is an even greater need to budget extra for giving to those hit hardest by
the recession, we find ourselves being more conscious about the cost of entertaining.
The recipe in this issue is intended to offer a delicious alternative to some of
the pricier cuts of meat without sacrificing the flavor and beauty of your holiday
table.
The roast will turn out tender and juicy with a glaze that has really permeated
the meat with its flavor. I like to serve it in thick, 1 inch slices with chunks
of roast garlic and some of the drippings.
If you do not eat pork, I encourage you to visit our website www.lucilleskitchengarden.com
for a similar recipe that uses a whole roasting chicken. We hope that you enjoy
this recipe and that your are enjoying time with loved ones this holiday season.

This time of year is full of holiday parties. Just this upcoming week we have onefor our daughter's school, one with friends, a small gift exchange, and that doesn'tcount the two we went to last weekend.The challenge is to bring something that is a little unique, and little thoughtful,and a lot good! A friend of ours told us that she had picked up a couple jars ofour jam and this recipe for her son who was beginning his first round of post college,grown up parties. He brought the above mentioned appetizer and it was a hit. Laterthat night he overheard an attractive lady raving about the dish, and before he could say anything he watched as another guy stepped in and tried to claim the appetizeras his own! The moral here is to stick close so you get the credit!

I am one of those people who can not decide which part of Thanksgiving that I enjoy more:The actual Thanksgiving feast with steaming turkey and heaping piles of mash potatoes or the day after when you have all those great ingredients left in your house to make some really spectacular, quick meals like the one that I have shared with you above. This year, in edition to the traditional holiday fare, I will be smoking a whole salmon, glazed with Garlic Pepper Jam for our vegetarian friends. We have the wonderful tradition of going to see our dear friends the Rundholts and contributing to a table filled with delicacies that represent the myriad of cultures of the people who attend.
We are truly grateful for being able to share our families pepper jams with you and the amazing year that we have had doing so!
We hope that your family enjoys this second Great Eight favorite as much as we do!

We have had a few emails leading up to the Thanksgiving Holiday asking for our Zesty Fresh Cranberry Sauce recipe, so I am reposting it. You can add a dash of Brandy as it cooks if you like and have a great Holiday!

Entertaining With Lucille
One of my absolute favorite holiday memories is the table full of pies that sat waiting for us to finish our heaping plates of turkey and stuffing. There was always the traditional pumpkin pie, but it was in good company with blackberry, pecan and apple pie. As my generation adds to our family traditions, we have introduced our own twist to honor the generations of flour covered pie makers that came before us: Dark Chocolate Raspberry Pepper Pie. I have three suggestions:
Make this Pie! I have had several "very well known but will remain nameless" foodies contact me for additional copies of this recipe.
Serve in small wedges, similar to the way that you would cut cheese cake.
Make an extra one for later in the day when the naps are over and the dishes are done and everyone finds themselves hungry for a little something!
We hope that your family enjoys this first Great Eight favorite as much as we do!
