Anyone ever make Mock Apple Pie? - Page 2

Gn2Dlnd · 07-26-2009, 12:05 AM

I've always been fascinated by this recipe as well. Make it! I want to know how it tastes! Probably needs a ton of Cool Whip.

I love the idea of faux foods that came out of depression era make-do. My aunt Marcie makes salmon cakes that are canned salmon, egg, and crushed saltines. And they're really good. I'm sure there are many other examples of "let's see what we can make out of what's left in the cupboard" that have become family standbys. Milk toast anyone? Peanut butter and sugar sandwiches?

Power of suggestion perhaps?

Okay, probably sometime midweek, I will try this out and report back to everyone here.

Been nice knowing you Flippy. If we don't hear from you again we know why.

Cream of Tarter can be a substitute for Corn Starch. It is also a staple in scones.

Really? I've never seen it any of the scone recipes I use.

Out of curiousity, being a complete novice in the kitchen, is cream of tarter a key ingredient in tarter sauce?

Not in any recipe that I've ever seen. Tartar sauce is generally a mixture of mayonnaise and pickle relish, with nary a hint of cream of tartar to be found.

Tartar sauce was originally served with Steak Tartare - hence the name.

Cream of Tartar is what gives Play Dough that wonderful Play Dough taste.
