O
ur years of
selling spices have taught us that
cooking is not a one size fits all
world: far from it. WeвЂ™ve learned
the true beauty of cooking lies in
the incredible diversity of the
people who cook, and in the
incredible variety of the food they
cook. Those years have also taught
us for all of our differences, for the
tremendous variety of what we
cook, people who cook have
something in common. They care
enough to make the lives of those
around them better. The research
shows that people who share
dinner together at the kitchen
table go on to share a brighter
future. A brighter future made
possible by people with the spirit
to build it one meal at a time. It is
this spirit we celebrate, this spirit
we hope to spread, this spirit that
makes all who cook ONE. Through
our pages we hope to share the
greater family of human kindness
that weвЂ™ve found all cooks belong
to. Come along and join us.
Be ONE.
New blendвЂ”itвЂ™s a good one
There is something special about cooking and about the people who cook. That
cooking continues to live on as a way we care for others based on the kindness we
have inside ourselves tells so much about who we are. In these difficult economic
times, watching the bleakness of the news, it can be all too easy to become cynical
about the future, to lose hope. Yet if you can only open your eyes to people in their
kitchens, every day you will see hundreds of millions of acts of kindness, you will
see what life is really all about.
And these acts of kindness matter because they work to build a better future.
The science tells us the act of cooking and sharing meals together is the best way
to guarantee a positive future, but as of yet the research has not really told us why.
For me I think there is something to the day after day layering on of kindness that
gives us a strength to face lifeвЂ™s challenges, but at the same time I have seen more
than once that one single act of kindness at the right moment can make all the
difference in the world.
Now more than ever it is time to celebrate the spirit of cooking and the spirit
of cooks. I can think of no better way to celebrate this cookвЂ™s approach to life than
through the introduction of a new and wonderfully tasty blend. Since this blend is
a celebration of how the kindness of cooks creates a path to a brighter future, I can
think of no better name for this blend than Forward!
Forward! does indeed live up to its name. It is a great blend. Like cooking it
embodies the notion of repaying the kindnesses of generations past by providing
kindness to the generations that follow ours. Forward! really is about passing on to
the future the great flavor of the seasoned salts of the past, while leaving all that
sodium behind. Wonderfully all-purpose for vegetables, meats, potatoes, rice and
pasta, Forward! can flavor anything on your plate with deliciousness. Give it a try.
Finally I want to say that introducing Forward! in what is our second annual
Back to School issue of the catalog is just right. Certainly many careers embody
the spirit of doing for others to create a better future, but no job is as much on the
front line of this difficult and important work as teaching. If we are honest with
ourselves we would all have to admit that none of us would have made it as far as
we have in life without that special teacher or teachers who gave us the sense that
we were valuable and that who we are mattered. Maybe this year is the school
year to return the favor and let them know just what a difference they made in our
lives. Teachers really are valuable and what they do really does matter.

Arizona Dreaming
How much should I buy?
A good guideline is to buy a one
yearвЂ™s supply of herbs or ground spices,
and a one to two year supply of whole
spices. The governmentвЂ™s guideline for
freshness dating is four years for whole
spices and two years for ground. Some
people say six months is the longest
spices should be stored, but most spices
are harvested only once a year, so it does
not make sense to discard them every six
months. On the other hand, two years
is too long to store finely powdered
spices. Each spice contains hundreds
of flavor components. It is the quantity
and balance of these components that
determines the quality of the spice. These
flavor components will dissipate at
different rates. A top quality spice may be
better at two years old than a low quality
spice at two months. When in doubt
about a spice, just smell it. If it smells
strong and spicy, use it. If not, toss it.
How should I store them?
Spices must be stored properly to
maintain strong, fresh flavor. Heat, light,
moisture and air all speed the loss of
flavor and color. Glass or barrier plastic
containers (such as those we use at
Penzeys) are very good. DO NOT store
your spices near a heat source: on top
of the stove, dishwasher, refrigerator or
microwave, or near the sink or a heating
vent. The best way to avoid light is to put
the spices inside a cupboard or a drawer.
If an open spice rack is being used, place
it out of direct sunlight.
Some folks say that all spices should
be stored in the refrigerator or the freezer.
Whole, crushed and ground chili peppers
(including paprika, as well as sesame
seed and poppy seed) will stay fresh and
colorful longer in cool storage, especially
in the Summer months. Other than vanilla
beans and extract, the flavor of spices
will not be damaged by cold. The only
problem with spices being stored in the
fridge is that they tend to be used less (out
of sight, out of mind). So we recommend
keeping smaller quantities of spices out
in the cooking area and larger backup
supplies in the refrigerator or freezer.

fruit pies. Because of its superior thickening ability (use half
as much as п¬‚our) and clear look, arrowroot is excellent for
stir-fry sauce. To thicken sauces or gravies: Use 1-2 tsp.
(dissolved in a bit of cool water) per cup. Push food to one
side of pan. Tip pan for juices to collect on one side and
drizzle in arrowroot-water slurry. Stir over medium heat
until slightly thickened, toss to coat food and serve.

Turkish bay leaves are the best in the world. Though not
as strong as the California variety, they have a natural
depth of flavor that the California bay leaves canвЂ™t hope to
match. Bay leaves grow wild on the hilly mountains of
western Turkey in the area around Izmir (Smyrna). The
flavor of bay leaves is perfect for adding to roast pork or
chicken, pot roast, turkey or ham, use 2-3 leaves and
remove before serving. Bay leaves are also perfect for
spaghetti sauce and chicken soup, use 2 per quart. A
surprising fact is that bay leaves improve the flavor of
salt-free dishes with their rich flavor. Note: bay leaves are
very light (8 ounces by weight equals one gallon by
volume).

Basil
Basil is the perfect herb for pasta, tomato sauce, and
chicken. The flavor of sweet basil is almost addictive and
there is little that a bit of basil canвЂ™t improve. Known as a
tomatoвЂ™s best friend, add basil to salads, soups, fish, and
vegetables. Basil is a wonderful addition to meat and
poultry as well. Add basil toward the end of cooking for
the strongest flavor. California basil is a little stronger
than French basil, due mainly to better dehydration
technology, and is the basil of choice for Italian and
American cooking. French basil has a bit of anise flavor
many people enjoy.

Bavarian-Style Seasoning
Growing up in the Penzey family, one of our favorite
Sunday dinners was Gram's special recipe of veal, pork,
potatoes, onions and carrots, all roasted to a golden
brown in the same pan, seasoned with her simple, yet
delicious blend of herbs and spices. WeвЂ™ve also found
this seasoning is wonderful for the grillвЂ”one of our
quick favorites is to rub boneless pork chops or turkey
cutlets with a bit of vegetable oil, then sprinkle with 1-2
tsp. Bavarian Seasoning per pound. Also great on turkey
breast, rub on 1-2 tsp. per lb. For added zest, sprinkle
with lemon juice or salt. Hand-mixed from: crushed brown
mustard, rosemary, garlic, thyme, bay leaf and sage.

Bell Peppers
Flavorful, colorful bell peppers are convenient and tasty,
nice for meatloaf, soup, pizza, casseroles and salads.
Picked at the peak of ripeness, yielding a farmerвЂ™s market
fresh taste. These peppers are so flavorful, a little goes
a long way, and they are ready to use when you are.
1-2 TB. dehydrated bell peppers give the flavor of 1 large
fresh pepper. Red Bell Peppers are sweeter than green
bell peppers, which have a zestier flavor. To rehydrate
Вј cup: Place 2 TB. bell peppers in a cup, add water to
the 2 oz. (Вј cup) mark. Soak 15 minutes.

вЂњWe often
take day trips
throughout
Wisconsin just
to вЂ�see what
there is to see.вЂ™ вЂќ
Meredith Wittmann
I enjoy the idea of making things
from scratch just like my grandmother
did,вЂќ says Meredith Wittmann of
Milwaukee, Wisconsin. вЂњI have a strong
southside pride.вЂќ
вЂњMy Grandmother Rosie, who I was
incredibly close to, taught me a lot
about baking. I remember making
cakes with her when I was a little girl.
вЂњMy earliest memory was helping
her grease the pans and she would
always let me lick the beaters and the
bowl. She knew I was done when I
would stick the bowl over my head
to get the sides. It was not until my
grandma passed and I was grown that
I realized how much batter she left in
the bowl just for me.
вЂњMy grandmother didnвЂ™t have a lot
of money, but she found many ways
to treat me well. I think of her always,
especially when I make bunny-shaped
cakes like we did when I was little.
And just like Grandma Rosie I never
skimp on frosting because as far as IвЂ™m
concerned, you can never have too
much.
вЂњNothing is more satisfying than
making foods that people really like.
My husband Andy and I have a very
large vegetable garden. I started
canning last year. ItвЂ™s much easier than
you think and the fruits of our labor
make great Christmas gifts.
вЂњI plant peppers for the sole purpose
of making stuffed peppers. Andy and
I both come from large families. We
like to have what I consider a вЂ�holidayвЂ™
at the end of summer. I make huge
batches of stuffed peppers and we
invite our families. ItвЂ™s a great time and
a chance to get together with those we
donвЂ™t see as often as weвЂ™d like.
вЂњIвЂ™m very proud to live and work
here. I currently work at the Wisconsin
Talking Book and Braille Library
where we provide literature for
residents who cannot read normal-size
print.
вЂњOnce each week I also teach
a course at a career college on
the introduction to research and
information literacy. I enjoy working
with people who are serious about
getting an education and bettering
themselves.
вЂњOften my students remark how I
seem to care about them and I do.
I think for some, being taught by
someone who really cares has helped
them to continue their education.
вЂњTeaching has taught me patience
and has made me more tolerant of
others. IвЂ™ve always known people learn
differently and teaching has helped
me to accept that. I find I can explain
myself better and be more flexible
because I see the point of view of
others.
вЂњTeaching has really opened up
Peanut Butter Banana Bread
This not-so-guilty pleasure is one of MeredithвЂ™s most

Cardamom
Cardamom is a pod consisting of an outer shell with
little flavor and tiny inner seeds with intense flavor.
Stored in a glass jar, cardamom pods will stay fresh
indefinitely. Shelled or decorticated cardamom seeds
are inexpensive and flavorful, but sometimes need to
be crushed or ground before use. Ground cardamom
has an intensely strong flavor and is easy to use
(especially in baking, where the fine powder is
desirable). In India, where both green and black
cardamom are used, it is an important ingredient in
meat and vegetable dishes. In Northern Europe, white
cardamom is used to season baked goods such as
Christmas stollen, cakes, cookies, muffins and buns.
Black cardamom has a unique smoky flavor and has
developed its own following over the years.

Celery Seed
Black pepper is the best spice for beef, but good cooks
also add a touch of celery. Whole celery seed is used in
salad dressings, soups and pickling recipes, and
rubbed on large cuts of meat. Ground celery is used
more sparingly to season smaller, quicker cooking cuts.
Use half as much ground celery as whole celery.

Ancho Chili Peppers
Chili peppers are capsicums, in the
same family as bell peppers and paprika
pods. They range in flavor from rich and
sweet, to fiery hot. A combination of
both sweet (ancho) and hot (dundicut,
chipotle, and jalapeГ±o) chili peppers
are used in Mexican cooking for
full-flavored, spicy chili and other dishes.
For Chinese cooking, tien tsin peppers
are most common, and in Indian
cooking sanaam and dundicut peppers
are used, along with a variety of spices.
Remember to combine the heat of chili
peppers with other spices, so the finished
dish will have a full-bodied flavor. Since
chili peppers are dried vegetables, they
will keep best if stored in the refrigerator, especially during the summer.
Large, juicy, dark purple New Mexican pods. Ancho
chili peppers are the most commonly used pepper in
Mexico and are the backbone of dishes such as the
traditional red chili and tamales. Chop into В№/4" chunks
and add to chili, mole sauce, stews, beans and rice, or
cover in water for a few hours to rehydrate, slice open,
stuff and cook. To make a flavorful ancho chili oil:
Chop 3 peppers into 1" chunks and simmer in 3 cups
good corn oil, 20 minutes. Let cool, strain (use pepper
pieces in another recipe) and store in an airtight
container.

those who like their chili hot and п¬‚avorful. Hand-mixed

Chili Powder
There is a difference between chili pepper
and chili powder. Chili pepper consists solely
of chili pods which have been dried, then
powdered. Chili powder is a blend, of which
ground chili pepper is used as a base (usually
80% of total volume), with the addition of
spices such as cumin and Mexican oregano.
For chili, start with 1 TB. (some people will
use as much as 3 TB.) per quart.

Chives

color. Even the very small amount of moisture on a
salad will rehydrate them. Give a hint of garden herb
freshness to omelets, chicken soup, baked potatoes
and vegetables. Freeze-dried and circle cut. From

Cilantro
Cilantro is one of the main, distinctive flavors in Mexican
cooking, especially in salsa, soups, and salads. Cilantro is
sometimes called Chinese parsley, as it is also used heavily
in Asian cooking. Dried Cilantro is not quite as nice as the
fresh, but it is easier to keep on hand and has good strong
flavor. Cilantro is the leaf of the coriander plant. Cilantro is
used heavily in most of the world where its unique flavor
seasons salads, tacos, curries, guacamole, soups and
stews. Dehydrated, broken leaf. From California.

Cloves
Whole cloves are a must for studding hams and
flavoring stocks and hot cider and punch. The flavor is
intense, so be sure to use sparingly. Ground cloves are
perfect for baked goods. Because cloves bring out the
flavor of beef, add a whole clove to beef stew or a tiny
pinch of ground cloves to gravy. In the West, cloves
are mainly considered a baking spice, though their
preserving qualities make them popular for pickling
and barbecuing.

1 Cup salsa
1 15-oz. can corn, drained (or 2 Cups
corn kernels)
1 onion, chopped
1 15-oz. can diced tomatoes
1 Cup cooked rice
2 tsp. REGULAR CHILI POWDER
1 tsp. CHILI 9000
1 tsp. GROUND BLACK PEPPER
1 tsp. GROUND CUMIN
Sauce (optional):
1 15-oz. can diced tomatoes
1 TB. MINCED WHITE ONION
1вЃ„2 tsp. salt
1 TB. sugar
1 tsp. BASIL
2 TB. flour
1вЃ„4 Cup water
Slice the tops off of the peppers; chop any of the
edible parts of the tops and place in a large bowl.
Remove the seeds from the peppers and discard,
leaving the peppers whole. In a skillet over mediumhigh heat, brown the ground beef and drain well.
Add the NORTHWOODS and cook for another
minute. Add to the bowl with the chopped
pepper tops and mix. Add the beans, salsa, corn,
onion, tomatoes, rice and SEASONINGS and mix
well. Spoon the mixture into the peppers. To
cook the peppers, you can either use the oven
or a slow cooker. For the oven, preheat to 350В°
while you prepare the filling. Place the stuffed
peppers on rimmed baking sheets or in 9x13
pans and cover with any leftover filling and
sauce (if using). Bake, covered, at 350В° for 45
minutes. Uncover and bake for 15 minutes. For
the slow cooker, you will probably need 2 or a
very large one. Stand the filled peppers upright
and cover with any extra filling and sauce (if
using). Cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for
3-4 hours.
Sauce: In a deep skillet, combine the tomatoes,
ONION, salt, sugar and BASIL and simmer for 10
minutes. Mash the mixture. In a bowl, combine
the flour and water. Stir into the tomato mixture
and cook until thickened. Pour on top of the
peppers before cooking.
A note from Meredith: вЂњAny extra stuffed pepper
filling tastes great the next day reheated and
sprinkled with NORTHWOODS SEASONING and/
or BANGKOK BLEND and served in tortillas. So
make extra!вЂќ

Indonesia CinnamonвЂ”Korintje
Sweet and mellow, Korintje cinnamon is the type of
cinnamon we all remember from our childhood.
Fragrant Korintje cinnamon is as strong as China
cinnamon, but smoother and not as nippy. We love
Korintje cinnamon for sprinklingвЂ”on hot cereal,
oatmeal and cream of wheat, French toast, pancakes
and waffles, sugar cookies, and pie crusts. Perfect for
cinnamon breads, quick, yeast, or toasted with raisins.
There are two main types of
cinnamon. Cassia cinnamon is native
to Southeast Asia, especially southern
China and northern Vietnam, and has
the strong, spicy-sweet flavor most
Americans are familiar with. Vietnamese
and China cinnamon are the sweetest
and strongest varieties, with Korintje
cinnamon having a smooth flavor with
less bite. Our cinnamon sticks and
Korintje cinnamon both come from the
southwest coast of Sumatra in Indonesia.
It grows wild on the governmentprotected slopes of Mount Kerinci,
where the cinnamon gets its name. We
stock the top Korintje A grade, although
there are also the lower B and C grades,
which are the types of cinnamon usually
sold in supermarkets in the U.S. Our
very sweet and strong Vietnamese
cinnamon comes from the remote
north and west regions of Vietnam. The
strength of the flavor of spices depends
upon the essential oil contentВвЂ”the
higher the level, the stronger the flavor.
When orders for cinnamon come in,
the large sticks are cracked into slightly
smaller pieces and packed into burlap
bags for shipment.
The second type of cinnamon,
Ceylon, or "true" cinnamon, has a much
different flavor. It is less sweet, with a
more complex, citrus flavor. The special
flavor of English and Mexican sweets
comes from Ceylon cinnamon. We like to
recommend Ceylon Cinnamon for baking
with fruitвЂ”especially in apple pie.

People smile when they wear the designs
JorJan creates using all natural materials.
JorJan Borlin
T
eddy taught me to be still
enough to listen to the energy of the
moment, to sort out if there is really
something you must deal with and to
act accordingly. To re-examine what
is really important in life,вЂќ says JorJan
Borlin of Dodgeville, Wisconsin.
JorJan and her husband Peter
were stunned when their only son
Teddy was diagnosed with SandhoffвЂ™s
Disease, a rare genetic disorder that
has no treatment and no cure. Teddy
was eight months old at the time.
вЂњHow could this happen?вЂќ JorJan
recalls thinking. вЂњHow could he not
grow up?
We spent that day in the garden
crying and helping Teddy do things
we feared he never would: tasting a
strawberry, feeling a baby chick,
sitting in a tree.вЂќ
JorJan and Peter provided aroundthe-clock care at home for Teddy,
and when he reached age 5 they
decided to take him to a special class.
вЂњWe felt he was missing out on
interaction with other children,вЂќ says
JorJan. вЂњHe became the most popular
kid in the class!
вЂњThere was a little boy in class also
named Teddy. He would bring things
from home to show our
Teddy. Once he brought a bicycle
grip so Teddy would know what it felt
like to grip a bicycle.
вЂњHis mother would send notes for
Teddy filled with an unfamiliar
language. WeвЂ™d show them to Teddy
and heвЂ™d smile. It was as if they had
their own language.
вЂњI think they taught each other as
the truest of friends teach each
other, without all the worry about
being вЂ�cool enoughвЂ™ when and while
they did.вЂќ
Teddy lived to be almost 7 years
old, longer than any other
SandhoffвЂ™s child. вЂњImages of Teddy
smiling in his wheelchair come to
me. He can still be my teacher. His
spirit hasnвЂ™t left me.
вЂњTeaching has always interested
me. At first, all I could imagine was
teaching K-12. Now I realize that it is
not so much what subject I teach, but
the idea of sharing a way to solve a
problem which I happen to know
and someone else wants or needs
to know.
вЂњThis may be teaching a grandma
how to make bracelets for her
grandchildren or teaching a beading
class at Shake Rag Alley Center for
the Arts. Teaching feels like sharing a
miraculous secret that will make us
all happier.
вЂњI am on the Board of Directors
for the Hodan Center, a
rehabilitation center for people with
cognitive disabilities. We provide
opportunities to help those with
disabilities achieve their individual
goals.
вЂњI continually emphasize center
experiences as well as community
integration as two parts of a well
rounded life. I understand the good
friends and feelings which come
from shared time with people who
have disabilities similar to your own.вЂќ
JorJan uses two canes and leg
Artist Peter Schwei works in the studio he shares
with his wife JorJan. Below left is a painting of
Teddy that Peter titled "The Teacher."
braces to walk after a skydiving
accident while she was in graduate
school. вЂњI try to help people
understand what it is like to have a
disability, the small things that make
a big difference in my life such as
what would it be like to hold my
husbandвЂ™s hand while we walk on the
beach or how will I safeguard my
godson while crossing the street? I
like that most people would not
think of my disability first when
trying to describe me. Except for my
disability, I am the same as you.
вЂњI love the process of making
things: a meal for dinner, a new
chemical compound (JorJan was a
chemistry major in college) or a
beaded necklace. I get totally lost in
the energy of doing so. I feel as
though IвЂ™ve been transported
somewhere else.
вЂњI make wearable art. My clothing
helps people say who they really are
and allows them to share the beauty,
strength and energy within
themselves.
вЂњI think if people thought more
about who they are and who they are
meant to be, they would be deciding
what to take in school, what job to
take or what to do in their spare
time, not based on what can make
the most money, but on what can
make a better world.вЂќ

Balti Seasoning
Baltistan is an ancient region of northernmost Pakistan
with influences from Persia, Tibet and China. Balti
meals are rich stews cooked in a karahi (small wok),
and would be eaten with naan and other Indian
breads. The deliciously spicy but not too hot flavor of
Balti makes it a great choice for chicken, pork or beef.
Hand-mixed from: coriander, garlic, ginger, cumin,
dundicut chilies, Ceylon cinnamon, brown mustard seeds,
cardamom, clove, fennel, fenugreek, charnushka, ajwain,
star anise, black cardamom, cilantro, anise seed and bay
leaf.
Cooking With Curry
Many people who eat curry for the
first time in an Indian restaurant are a
bit overwhelmed by trying a dish that
is new to them but spiced for a person
who already knows and loves the flavor
of Indian food. The key to learning to
love Indian food yourself is to start at
home by adding small amounts of curry
powder to foods you already know and
like. Sprinkle on chicken or chops before
cooking, scramble a bit with eggs, sautГ©
with vegetables. Soon the whole family
will love the flavors, and you can move
on to authentic, but not too spicy, dishes
like Balti, Tandoori, SatГ© and Rogan Josh.
Finding new, quick ways to prepare the
same food for the family dinner isnвЂ™t
always easy, and Indian cooking is some
of the most delicious in the world. Give it
a try...
Not All Curries Are
Hot
Contrary to popular belief, Indian food
isnвЂ™t all hot. The wonders of spicing are
nowhere more apparent than in India,
where stronger-flavored meats, such as

Garam Masala
Garam Masala, a blend of savory Indian spices, is one of
the few spice mixes actually used in India. It has no
turmeric, so it isnвЂ™t yellow, and is often added to hot or
mild curry powder. The formula for Garam Masala was
brought into the store by a Punjabi man who had
moved to the U.S. It was his mother's recipe; in
exchange for blending the spices for him, he gave it to
us. His mother was proud to hear that her blend was a
hit in America. Hand-mixed from: coriander, black
pepper, cardamom, cinnamon, kalonji, caraway, cloves,
ginger, nutmeg.

Rogan Josh Seasoning
Just a little spicy. This version of the popular red lamb
stew comes from the state of Rajasthan, known for its
hilly deserts and fierce, yet chivalrous warriors. While
Rogan Josh can be made with beef, it is traditional an
better made with lamb. This blend is a great example
of how a crafty seasoning can change the stronger
flavor of lamb (or in India, mutton or goat) into a mea
far more delicious than plain old beef. Some blends a
interestingвЂ“this blend is delicious. For the true Jaipur
Palace experience, use the full 2 TB. seasoning per
pound, plus extra cayenne and cardamom. Either way
you make it, don't plan on leftovers. Brown 2 lb. lamb
or beef cubes in 4 TB. oil, remove. Brown 1 large
minced onion, add 2-4 TB. Rogan Josh, 1 tsp. salt, stir.
Add meat plus 1 cup water and В№/2 cup yogurt. Cook
1-2 hrs. over low heat till lamb is tender and sauce
thick. Hand-mixed from: paprika, garlic, ginger, cumin,
coriander, pepper, cayenne, cinnamon, cardamom,
cloves, saffron.

Vindaloo Seasoning
This hot and spicy blend comes from Goa, a small state
nestled in the middle of the Malabar Coast of India.
Though control of Goa was returned to India in 1961,

dish of the Catholics, who make up a third of the
population of Goa. The Muslims and Hindus of India
prefer Vindaloo lamb or duck. Mix 2-5 TB. spice in 2-5
TB. water, set aside. Heat 2 TB oil, brown 1В№/2 lb. pork
cubes, remove, then brown 1 large minced onion. Put
browned pork back into pot, add Vindaloo paste, 1 cup
water, 6 TB. vinegar and 1 tsp. salt, cook 30 min. Add
4-6 cups cubed potatoes, cook till tender (45 min. or
so). For authentic fiery hot Vindaloo as served in beach
front restaurants in India, add an equal part cayenne
pepper. Hand-mixed from: coriander, garlic, cumin,
ginger, cinnamon, crushed brown mustard, cayenne,

Fox Point Seasoning
Garlic
One of our very best blends, so good on all the foods
we are supposed to be eating more of, from fish to
vegetables. Bursting with the rich п¬‚avor of shallots and
chives. Use 1 tsp. per pound to season baked chicken
and scrambled eggs. For tasty dip use 2 tsp. of Fox
Point in 1 cup sour cream or yogurt. The dip makes an
outstanding topping for baked potatoes too, or make a
quick chicken or tuna salad by mixing 3 cups of cooked
chicken or tuna chunks with 1 cup of Fox Point dip.
Because we do not use any anti-caking agents in this
(or any other) blend, it tends to clump somewhat. To
keep it free-п¬‚owing, store in the refrigerator.
Hand-mixed from: salt, freeze-dried shallots, chives,
garlic, onion, green peppercorns.
It is very easy to use granulated garlic, just sprinkle on
meat, fish, poultry, or vegetables. Use about В№/2 tsp. per
lb. To rehydrate: use В№/2 tsp. granulated garlic in 1 tsp.
water to equal 2 fresh cloves of garlic. For minced
garlic, use В№/4 tsp. in 1 tsp. water to equal 1 fresh clove
of garlic. Rehydrate garlic before adding to tart foods
like tomatoes (their acidic nature will stop the garlic
from developing to its full strength).

3 cloves garlic (fresh should be used)
1 1-inch piece fresh ginger root, peeled
(or 1вЃ„2 tsp. POWDERED GINGER)

garlic, thyme, lemon grass, cinnamon, anise, cloves, mace.
Ginger
Ginger is one of the most widely used
spices in the world. In America, ginger
has been used mainly in baking;
it is a must for the holidaysвЂ”from
gingerbread to pumpkin pie to fruit
cakes, and it is also increasingly used
to flavor a variety of other dishes.
Ginger is essential for Asian and
Indian dishes where it is used in
many waysвЂ”from Indian curries,
to Japanese marinades, to Chinese
stir-fry. A pinch of ginger is a nice
boost to the flavor of salt-free dishes,
and also a flavorful addition to chicken soup,
sauteed vegetables, and roast chicken or pork.
For flavorful grilled steak, rub ginger, garlic
and black or white pepper on meat, marinate
a few hours before cooking.
Crystallized Ginger
They donвЂ™t call it candied ginger for nothingвЂ“many
of our customers buy it to eat it piece by piece,
because it is just that good. Tender Australian
ginger, peeled and cut into В№/4" dices, then
preserved using the oldfashioned sugar cure
method, which gives a
spicy sweet flavor to the
ginger. Virtually
fiber-free, crystallized
ginger is perfect for
baking and candymaking. Because the
ginger retains its
warmth and bite, even
with the sugar coating, it
is excellent for teriyaki, tuna
or chicken salad, plus sweet and
sour marinades.

Dried sliced ginger root pieces stay fresh and
flavorful indefinitely, so they will be ready when
you are. Add a slice to stock for
chicken soup, Indian curries
and Asian dishes. The flavor
is strong and vibrant - if a
full slice is too much,
smaller pieces can be
broken off by hand.

Powdered China Ginger
China ginger is the finest in the
world. It is virtually fiber-free,
yielding a buttery-soft
powder when ground, and
is much better than the
woody fresh ginger found
in many supermarkets
(stays fresh longer, too).
Chinese ginger has a strong,
true flavor with lemony
overtones, making it perfect for all
baking recipesвЂ“especially gingersnaps,
gingerbread, molasses cookies, coffee cakes,
fruit breads, pies, and muffins.

Mustard
When making mustard, use stainless steel, glass, or ceramic
utensils and containers (aluminum gives mustard an odd
flavor). For a standard thickness, use 8 parts mustard by
volume to 7 parts liquid. Mustard is very hot when first
mixed, and then mellows with age. Refrigeration nearly
stops the mellowing process. For hot mustard, store at
room temperature for 4 weeks, then move to refrigerator
(or try 8 weeks for mild). An easy starter recipe is 1 cup
regular mustard powder (4 oz. by weight), 3 fl. oz. vinegar, 3
fl. oz. cool water, 1вЃ„2 tsp. salt and 1 TB. honey. Mix until
smooth, then pack in glass jars. For Chinese restaurant-style
mustard, mix 3 TB Oriental powder with 3 TB water. Let
stand 10 minutes for heat and flavor to develop.

Mustard Seed
Yellow mustard seed is the traditional type sold in grocery
stores, commonly used for pickling, canning and sausage
making. Brown mustard seed is smaller and hotter,
traditional for Asian and African cooking. In India, whole
brown seeds are fried in oil until a popping sound is heard.
This gives the seeds a nutty flavor, important in many
vegetarian dishes. Try whole mustard seeds in barbecue
sauce and rubs, or marinades for grilling. The seeds become
very soft, giving great flavor and an attractive appearance.

Black Peppercorns
Whole Special Extra BoldВ®
Indian Black Peppercorns
The pepper harvest in Sarawak on
the island of Borneo is a centuries old
event that brings families and friends
together to celebrate the culmination of
a year of growth and (with luck) good
weather. The pepper harvest takes place
at the driest time of year, in late June
through early July.
Harvesting is still done by hand just
as it has always been. Determining the
peak of ripeness of pepper is a hands-on,
visual job. All of the pepper on a vine
does not mature at the same rate and
the subtle color differences are closely
monitored. Some spikes of peppercorns
are in a better location on the vine and
receive more sunlight and nutrients,
so they can be harvested earlier. The
harvesters must be ready at all times,
as pepper can quickly mature from the
dark green berries used to produce black
pepper, to the yellow and red berries
which are then soaked for white pepper.
Creamy white pepper, the type we carry
at Penzeys, fetches the highest price
for farmers. It also presents a greater
challenge. The longer pepper is left to
ripen, the higher the potential for heavy
rains to wipe out the crop or the hot
sun to dry the pepper on the vine. It is
the extra care and risks the farmers take
that produces the rich, sweet flavor that
has made pepper the king of spices for
millennia.
Special Extra BoldВ® Indian Black Peppercorns are the
worldвЂ™s bestвЂ”only ten pounds out of every ton of
pepper makes the special grade. If you are new to
good pepper, you might want to stick with the
regular Tellicherry, as they are a better deal, but if you
really enjoy pepper you will appreciate the
difference. Great on everything, especially beef,
chicken, chops, fish, salads, vegetables, soups, and
omelets.

White Peppercorns
White Peppercorns are regarded by many parts of
the world as the finest flavored, most preferred
pepper, rich and sophisticated. White peppercorns
start out the same as black peppercorns, but then are
allowed to ripen more fully on the vine, to produce a
very large berry with a looser outer shell. This black
outer shell is then removed in one of two traditional
ways: the Muntok peppercorns are soaked in water
until the black shell loosens, while the Sarawak
peppercorns are held under a constantly flowing
stream of spring water, yielding a whiter color, and
an extra clean product. Both white peppercorns have
the traditional rich, winey, somewhat hot flavor that
is nice used in soup, on grilled meat or poultry, in
light-colored dishes or mixed with black peppercorns
for a broader range of flavor. Many Asian dishes rely
heavily on the flavor of white pepper, and it is
preferred for cooking the foods of Southeast Asia,
and Southern and Eastern Europe.

Penzeys spices | back to school
If there is only one spice in your kitchen, it should be
pepper. No other spice adds the greatest amount of
flavor to the greatest number of dishes. Now that
modern production and transportation methods
have made pepper affordable enough for all to enjoy,
it is more popular than ever, outselling all other
spices, and consumption continues to rise. If you are
trying to decide which peppercorn to buy, we
suggest you start with Tellicherry Peppercorns. All of
our peppercorns have great flavor, but the Tellicherry
Peppercorn is the top grade of Indian pepper.
Malabar Indian peppercorns are regarded as having
the finest flavor of the mass-produced varieties. A
step above Malabar is TellicherryвЂ”a larger and more
mature peppercorn, possessing a more developed
flavor.

can be ground in a peppermill like black peppercorns

Jen's students have a blast in the music
room. "I think music offers another 'family,'
a place where everyone is welcome and
safe and can just be themselves."
Jen Wszalek
F
or my husband Chris and me the
city is a big part of our lives,вЂќ says Jen
Wszalek of Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
вЂњThere are so many parts of
Milwaukee to love and keep us busy:
summer festivals, the lakefront,
museums, the architecture and
history just to name a few. ItвЂ™s a
wonderful way to appreciate our
heritage and love the town weвЂ™re in.
вЂњI chose music as my career
knowing that I would always want
music in my life as a way to express
myself. As a young girl my teacher
encouraged me to help her during
summer band classes. I found I
enjoyed teaching and helping
others.
вЂњNow I teach band and music
lessons to grades 4 through 8 and
private lessons to those as young as 5
and as young at heart as 80. I tailor
my lessons to what best fits their
needs so each student learns at a
pace to succeed. It is my mission to
reach out to each student and help
them find peace in playing their
instrument.
вЂњI want them to be happy and to
make progress. вЂ�Mary Had a Little
LambвЂ™ is a big deal if one month ago
you couldnвЂ™t even hold your
instrument. In order for this to
happen I have to be understanding
and encouraging and most of all,
patient. We all learn in different
ways. Meeting each studentвЂ™s needs
gives me endless variety in my
day and so many colorful
personalities to interact with.
вЂњKids are so enthusiastic
about life. I think music gives
them an outlet to learn to
express themselves and to
explore their feelings.
Teenagers feel a lot of peer pressure
to fit in and to do what is cool. Music
students learn confidence to be who
they want to be. Performing is an
excellent way to build selfconfidence. I really enjoy my
students and like watching them
become incredible young adults.
вЂњAs a band instructor, I think
music is a civic activity. Bands are
such a positive symbol in the
community of the great things young
people can accomplish through
cooperation with each other.
вЂњI also think bands are a
wonderful symbol of patriotism.
Regardless of your political beliefs,
вЂ�Proud to be an AmericanвЂ™ will (I
hope) always be important. Being in
a parade, especially Memorial Day or
4th of July with my students, gives us
all a sense of pride and appreciation
for our way of life.
вЂњMusic creates an appreciation for
different cultures, languages and
time periods because these aspects of
everyday life are basic elements of
making quality music.
Imagine a world full of all sorts of
music, colors and flavors. ThereвЂ™s so
much beauty in variety.
вЂњTeaching people of different
cultures, religions and economic
backgrounds has made my life richer
and has made me a better person. I
am constantly grateful for the
opportunities I have in life and the
everyday joys I am fortunate enough
to experience. Making music and
helping people, good stuff!вЂќ

Pepper Blends
Special Grinds
A combination of peppercorns is a nice change of pace for the tabletop pepper
grinder. Black, white and green peppercorns all start as the same berry, but are picked
at different times and dried in different ways, allowing each to develop its own
distinctive flavor. Four Peppercorn and European peppercorns give robust flavor to
meat, poultry, salads and vegetables. Lemon-Pepper and Shallot-Pepper are popular,
versatile, ground pepper blends, while Mignonette Pepper is a coarse blend mixed
with coriander, that is great for longer cooking times of large roasts or the higher
temperatures of grilling and broiling.
Finely ground white pepper has traditionally been used
in Western cooking where specks of black pepper
would be objectionable, such as in white sauces, cream
soups and fish dishes. Coarse grind white pepper is the
size and type of pepper preferred in Southeast Asia
where it is sprinkled heavily on meats, especially beef
and pork before grilling, broiling or stir-frying.
European Style Peppercorns
Half and half blend of Tellicherry black
peppercorns and Sarawak white peppercorns. In
Northern Europe, white and black pepper enjoy
equal popularity. The familiar, robust black pepper
flavor combined with the deep, winey, complex
white pepper, is perfect ground on potato or
noodle dishes. Great on pork roast and hearty beef
or chicken stew with red wine and root vegetables.

Four Peppercorn Blend
Mixture of Tellicherry black and Mysore green
peppercorns from India, white peppercorns from
Sarawak, and the rare pink peppercorns from the
French island of Reunion. Adds festive color and
flavor to any dish where one would use freshly
ground pepper. This blend also looks nice in the
clear, acrylic style peppermills.

Shallot-Pepper Seasoning
Bursting with the flavor of rich shallots and
flavorful French tarragon. Excellent on fish,
vegetables, sauteed boneless chicken breast and
pork or veal cutlets. Just sprinkle on В№/2 -1 tsp. per
pound, dust with a bit of flour and sautГ© in a small
amount of olive oil. Store in the refrigerator in the
summer months to prevent clumping. Hand-mixed
from: coarse salt, Tellicherry black pepper, shallots,
tarragon and bay leaves.

Lemon-Pepper Seasoning
One of the great, classic blends. Originally it was
used primarily for fish: baked, broiled, grilled or
fried. It is equally good, and just as popular, on
chicken. Sprinkle on 1-2 tsp. per pound, before
breading, if desired. Great for turkey or duck
breast, pork roast, chops or cutlets and all cuts of
veal (especially stuffed, baked veal breast). It's the
best spice possible for scrambled eggs and
omelets, and a must for catfish. Hand-mixed from:
salt, Special Extra Bold black pepper, citric acid,
lemon peel, garlic and minced green onion. For
salt-free lemon-pepper, see Sunny Spain.

Ground Black Pepper
Indian Black Tellicherry. Our ground pepper is
the finest in the nation. Pure premium grade
peppercorns, ground often to ensure freshness. The
pepper is sifted to four popular sizes, from a fine shaker
grind, to large coarse chunks, suitable to meet every
need. Mesh is a term that refers to the number of
openings per linear inch in a sifting screen. A fine grind,
such as a 30/60 mesh, would sift through a screen with
30 openings per inch, but would stay atop a smaller
screen of 60 openings per inch.

The ONLY peppermills worthy of
the WorldвЂ™s Best Peppercorns!
We designed our peppermills to be fully adjustableвЂ”
from shaker grind to coarse. To fill the peppermill and
adjust the grind, unscrew the nut on top of the mill, lift
off the wood cap, fill with peppercorns, then place the
top back on. The tighter the top is screwed on, the finer
the ground pepper will be. If the top is screwed halfway
down, there will be a large opening in the grinding
mechanism, allowing big chunks of pepper to fall
through. If the top is screwed down tightly, there will be
a small opening for fine pepper. Our salt shakers have
larger holes in the top and are designed to be used with
coarse style flake salt. Fine table salts may pour too
quickly out of the top.
*All peppermills come filled with Tellicherry
black peppercorns and salt shakers with
Kosher style flake salt.

it can be used right away, or refrigerated until
needed, which makes for a quick dinner! Heat the
oil, butter, or drippings over medium-high heat.
Add the onion, cook until lightly browned, 4-6

each burger. Heat a heavy pan or hot grill over

the pan/on the grill. Cook 4 minutes, then flip and
cook about another 4 minutes. Turkey burgers
should be cooked through, and they donвЂ™t get as

1 lb. fresh green beans
3 medium garden tomatoes
1вЃ„4 Cup olive oil
1-2 tsp. FORWARD!
Fill a large pot 2вЃ„3 full with water and bring to a boil
over medium-high heat. Add the tomatoes, cook
for 30 seconds, and remove with tongs to a bowl
of cold water, leaving the pot of water boiling on
the stove. Peel, core, and finely dice the tomatoes,
squeezing out and discarding the seeds. Heat the
olive oil in a medium to large skillet over low heat.
Add the tomato bits. Cook for 10 minutes, which is
just long enough to wash the beans, chop the stem
ends off, and cook in the still-boiling water for 3-7
minutes. 7 minutes is needed for really big beans,
3-5 for smaller, more tender beans. Drain and briefly
rinse the beans and then add to the pan with the
tomatoes. Add FORWARD! and toss to coat. Start
with 1 tsp., taste and add more as desired. The
beans can be served right away, but they are even
tastier if left to blend flavors with the tomato mix
for 10 minutes. Toss again just before serving.

Dear Penzeys,
My Dad loves baking!!!! He used
to love going through his Penzeys
One magazines, but now is happy
trying recipes in the catalog. His
favorites so far are the ginger
cookies. He bakes for any event
we need something for: road trips,
grandchildren in college, holidays,
and just because he wants to try
something new. His most requested
cookies are chocolate chip cookies,
ginger cookies, and monster cookies. Here is a picture of him with
his giant cookies of deliciousness.

latest catalog. Our son is a firefighter in Superior, Wisconsin, and
our daughter-in-law is a teacher in
Duluth.
Considering you are an owner
of a large business, I was especially
gratified to read your thoughts on
preserving education and respecting teachers, on taxes for corporations and the wealthy, on protecting
the middle class, and on workersвЂ™
rights. These are scary times, and I
respect and admire you for voicing
your thoughts.
Thank you, Bill. All the best to
you, your family, and your awesome
company.
вЂ”Betty G
Dear Bill,
My wife and I both separately
commented on the accuracy and
intensity of your statements regarding the importance of education,
teachers and workersвЂ™ rights. You
are entirely correct that the key to
WisconsinвЂ™s future is continuing
to hold education in the highest
regard, respecting the teachers
who provide that education, hiring
those smart workers and letting
them use that education to build
successful companies.
Greetings Bill,
I live in Duluth, Minnesota, and
love your store in St. Paul, your
spices, your catalog, etc.
I wanted to sincerely thank you
for the wonderful remarks you
made in the two вЂњnotesвЂќ in the
Thank you for your candor. We
were already planning to stop at
one of your stores tonight anyway,
but now I feel even better about
giving you some of our hard-earned
dollars.
Regards,
Dear Penzeys Folks,
I just got done telling my cousin
this story and thought maybe you
guys would get a kick out of it.
WarningвЂ”itвЂ™s a little sappy:
I started buying Penzeys spices as
a single woman more than 15 years
ago. A friend at work had given
me a catalog, knowing how much I
loved to cook. One Saturday night
I went to a bar to see my favorite
local band with a girl friend from
work. Well, she never showed up,
but I was having a good time so I
stuck around. I ended up meeting
this guy named Al who was also
there alone to see the band. We
started dating and friends were saying things like вЂњOh I think heвЂ™s вЂ�The
OneвЂ™!вЂќ (even a guy friend!)...things
I just wasnвЂ™t ready to hear as I was
enjoying being single! Well, after
dating for some time, we were at
his house cooking dinner together.
I opened the cabinet and saw rows
of Penzeys spices and I KNEWвЂ”I
really had found a keeper.
WeвЂ™ve been married nearly 11
years now and placing a Penzeys order still gives me a warmth that no
cinnamon or chili can duplicate.
Thanks for making a great product...and when are you coming to
NJ??
Cheers,
вЂ”Nina
Dear Nina, WeвЂ™re planning to open a
store in Summit, NJ later this year. Stay
tuned!
вЂ”Bentley W.
We really want to hear from you!

Calling all Cooks!
W
e need your help. At Penzeys we believe the best way to spread the richness
that comes to life through cooking is to show the richness that comes to life through
cooking. To do this we need you.
For years we have pretty much randomly cast
for cooks to fill our pages. It occurred to us it
might make for a better catalog if we knew a
little bit more of what gets you excited about
your cooking and your life. With 2011 being the
year of our 25th birthday party, we would love to
hear from cooks with fun birthday traditions. We would
like to feature at least a couple birthday cakes in every catalog this year, but
we are also looking for those special birthday meals. Making someoneвЂ™s
favorite meal just the way they like it makes all the difference in the world,
and there is no better time than a birthday to make it happen.
Our 25th birthday gives us a great opportunity to reflect on where
we are coming from вЂ” and where we are going.
We have so much to be grateful for, and a big part of having
wonderful, talented and caring people working with us at Penzeys is
the amazing educations so many received in WisconsinвЂ™s schools. For
our next catalog, our Fall issue, weвЂ™d love to hear from teachers from
across the United States. Do you have a story about cooking for people
important to you вЂ” and maybe a recipe to share, as well?
ItвЂ™d be great if it had a connection to a classroom,
but we wonвЂ™t lower your grade if it doesnвЂ™t.
In catalogs appearing toward the
holidays, weвЂ™ll be focusing on the
amazing ways kindness works. How has
a simple act of kindness made a difference
in your life, or in the lives of those who are dear to
you? WeвЂ™d love to hear about it.
Please
share with us
what happens in
your kitchen. Visit
penzeys. com and
fill out our brief
questionnaire.
But beyond these ideas, what we really need for our catalog is you.
As much as we can start with ideas for what a catalog can be, so often
just one answer on one survey can lead us off in a whole new different and
often beautiful direction. Come be a part. Please visit penzeys.com and fill out
our brief questionnaire to share with us what happens in your kitchen.
I appreciate it.

Avis
Chmielewski
I come from a family of many
teachers,вЂќ says Avis Chmielewski of
Milwaukee, Wisconsin. вЂњMy parents,
both of my grandfathers and one
great-grandfather, numerous aunts,
uncles and cousins have all been
teachers. So, although I considered
other careers, it always was clear that
yes, I would be a teacher.
вЂњI attended Concordia University,
Chicago as my parents and
grandparents did before me. My
great-grandfather, Dr. Albert H. Miller,
was a founding father of the college,
then called Concordia Teachers
College. He believed that speaking
the language well was a clear sign of
education.
вЂњFrom the first time I stepped in
front of a class as a scared student
teacher, I knew I had made the right
choice. Now, 37 years later, I still love
what I do.
вЂњI am passionate about what I teach
and love the moments when I see my
students become passionate as well.
вЂњMy dad was my 5th, 7th and 8th
grade teacher in a small Lutheran
school of which he became principal.
He taught me the significance of
Avis is a light hearted, fun loving person
and thatвЂ™s just whatвЂ™s needed for an 8th
grade Economics class.
Country-Style Pork Chops with
Black-Eyed Peas and Spinach
always using the gifts God gave me
to the best of my ability. To this day
I am happiest excelling at whatever
I choose to do, whether itвЂ™s writing a
new unit for my students or creating
a new dish for dinner.
вЂњMy favorite subject to teach is U.S.
History, helping students connect
modern times to past events by
discovering that people are people.
The way our forefathers struggled
with problems and agonized over
their decisions is not all that different
from how our leaders struggle today.
Common folk, regardless of the era,
have to figure out how best to make
their way through life, doing the best
they can with what they have.
вЂњWhen my students shed a tear as
I read the Gettysburg Address or as
they read aloud The Trail of Tears I
know life lessons are being learned. I
think thatвЂ™s so much more important
than dates or charts.
вЂњTeachers need the ability to think
on their feet, to pay attention as they
teach so that every student learns. If
a lesson isnвЂ™t going well or students
are struggling to understand, I have
to assess right then what to change
to help each child вЂ�getвЂ™ what IвЂ™m
teaching.
вЂњI think I became a better teacher
when I became a mom. I love
teaching and I am grateful for the
opportunity to share my knowledge
with my students, but when I had
my own children I saw from the
inside-out how kids learn, and how
compassion and empathy are every
bit as important as the teaching itself.
вЂњEducation is a treasure. It is an
investment in the future of our
children, our families and our
country.вЂќ

Northwoods Seasoning
One of our most popular seasonings. Up North
Wisconsin is a great place to fish, but itвЂ™s an even better
place to eat. Northwoods is a perfect seasoning for
family-style fried or baked chicken and fish. For baking,
sprinkle on 1-2 tsp. per poundвЂ”rub fish with a bit of
oil first. Try adding Northwoods to hearty soups and
stews. Hand-mixed from: coarse flake salt, paprika, black
pepper, thyme, rosemary, granulated garlic and ground
chipotle pepper.

Northwoods Fire Seasoning
What could be better than two types of Northwoods
Seasoning? Northwoods Fire has the same great flavor as
the original, with the added kick of smoky ground
Chipotle and hot Cayenne red pepper. A wonderful
seasoning for all grilled foodsвЂ”steaks, fish, chicken and
chops, even grilled vegetables. Hand-mixed from: coarse
п¬‚ake salt, paprika, ground chipotle pepper, black pepper,
cayenne red pepper, thyme, rosemary and granulated garlic.

Nutmeg
Both Grenadian and East Indian ground nutmeg are easy
to use and flavorful. Whole nutmeg are very large, about 80
per lb. (5-6 nutmeg per oz.), making them easier to grate by
hand. Ten seconds of rubbing on a small-holed grater will
yield В№/2 tsp. of fresh, flavorful nutmeg. Grenada in the West
Indies grows some of the finest nutmeg in the world. When
using Grenadian nutmeg, use ВІ/3 of what the recipe calls for,
it is very potent. Nutmeg is a must for BBQ sauce. In Europe,
nutmeg is used atop most bakery and hot chocolate.

Onions
Dehydrated onions are great to keep on hand for those
times when you've run out just when you need them the
most. White onions have the flavor of a sweet onion, without
the sharpness of raw onions, ideal for those who like the
flavor without the bite. Toasted onions have a вЂњFrench OnionвЂќ
flavor, very nice for roasts. 2 TB = 1 small onion.

Substitute В№/3 as much dry as recipe calls for.
Penzeys spices | back to school
For traditional Italian-American cooking, the sweet,
strong flavor of Turkish oregano canвЂ™t be beat. Our
travels to this area have allowed us to import some
wonderful Turkish oregano, the best we've seen in
years. Try some on baked chicken, pork, and fish. For a
simple salad dressing or marinade, mix 1 TB. TURKISH
OREGANO with 1вЃ„2 tsp. each black pepper and garlic,
add to 1вЃ„2 cup olive oil and 2 TB. balsamic or red wine
vinegar. Add salt to taste and a dash of honey and/or
brown mustard for green or pasta salads, chicken,
lamb, fish, or vegetables. MEXICAN OREGANO is
strong, pungent and less sweet, great for chili. For
easy GUACAMOLE, mash 2 ripe avocados with the
juice of 1 lime, 1вЃ„2 tsp. each MEXICAN OREGANO,
cumin, garlic, salt, and a dash of cayenne.

Ozark Seasoning
A classic Southern blend of black pepper and herbs.
What could be better than the flavor of fried chicken
without the fat? Sprinkle Ozark Seasoning on chicken,
fish or chops, bake or saute for mouth-watering flavor
and a healthy meal. Use about 1 tsp. of Ozark on each
chicken breast, pork chops or fish fillets. Sprinkle on
green beans - almost as good as the meat. Another
great use for Ozark Seasoning is in scrambled eggs.
Hand-mixed from: salt, Tellicherry black pepper, spices
and herbs, granulated garlic, and paprika.

Paprika
Hungarian-Style Sweet Paprika is a traditional spice
with delicious flavor and vibrant colorвЂ”one of the best
spices from GramвЂ™s kitchen. Just a sprinkle adds a
flavorful and colorful touch to meat, fish and poultryвЂ”

Penzeys spices | back to school
think of my parents as role models,
but now that I look back I realize
what they taught me, not so much in
words of wisdom but in actions. So
that whole idea of hospitality and
entertaining, and that love of cooking,
is very important.
вЂњMy love of cooking and
entertaining comes from my mother
Ethel and her sisters, especially my
Aunt Ruth. They grew up with an
appreciation for dining and what
it meant to have family and friends
around the table for a meal. Sunday
dinners were always special. It was all
about hospitality and making room
for people who did not have family to
share a meal with.
вЂњWhat I remember most is coming
home from church to the welcome
smell of dinner cooking in the oven.
We would gather in the living room
prior to eating to read the paper and
talk with guests as my mother would
finish preparing our meal. The table
was always set with my motherвЂ™s best
china and silverware. It was special
because it was always prepared with
love and happiness.
вЂњI think my mother was most happy
cooking and baking, itвЂ™s what she
excelled at. But more importantly she
taught us the power of conversation
over food вЂ“ how to be in relationships
and value family and friends through
the act of dining with one another. It
is why I love to entertain today. It is
a very intimate act of love preparing
food for another individual, providing
for the nourishment of their body and
soul.вЂќ

A high-quality blend for all pickling and canning.
Hand-mixed from: yellow and brown mustard seeds,
allspice, cinnamon, bay leaves, dill seed, cloves, ginger,
black peppercorns, star anise, coriander, juniper, mace,
cardamom, crushed red pepper.
Pizza Seasoning
Pizza Seasoning is one of our favorites, both for adding
spicy Italian flavor to bland frozen pizzas and for
boosting the flavor of low-fat dishes, such as making
Italian-style sausage with ground turkey. Pizza
Seasoning also gives an almost meaty flavor to plain
old tomato sauce, as the fennel seed makes it taste like
youвЂ™ve added Italian sausage without the fat. Mix 1 TB.
Pizza Seasoning in 1-2 cups tomato sauce, brush on
pizza crust or pita bread and sprinkle with cheese and
toppings as desired. For sausage, use 1 TB. per lb.
Hand-mixed from: salt, fennel seed, oregano, sugar, garlic,
black pepper, basil, onion, red pepper.
Sweet blue poppy seeds are used in baking, on breads,
rolls, muffins, and cake. Also great for fruit salad
dressing. Poppy seeds have a high, п¬‚avorful oil content.
Refrigerate or freeze during summer months. White
poppy seeds are used in Indian cooking adding
thickness, texture, and п¬‚avor to long cooking sauces.

Corn Salsa
This garden fresh salsa from Meredith is bright, crisp
and flavorful. To read MeredithвЂ™s story, turn to page 7.
3 large ears of corn
1 large onion, chopped
2 peppers of your choice (bell peppers
or hot peppers), chopped
1 garden tomato, chopped
1вЃ„3-1вЃ„2 Cup lime juice
3вЃ„4 tsp. GROUND CUMIN
1вЃ„4 tsp. CINNAMON
1вЃ„2 tsp. GROUND BLACK PEPPER
1 small cucumber, chopped (optional)
1 15 oz. can black beans, drained and
rinsed (optional)
Shuck the corn and remove the corn from the
cobs (a tip from Meredith: place the tip of the corn
cob in the opening of a fluted cake pan and cut
the corn into the pan for easy clean up). In a large
bowl, combine the corn, onion, peppers, tomato,
lime juice and SPICES. Mix well. If youвЂ™d like, add
the cucumber and/or black beans and mix again.
When Meredith uses black beans in this recipe
she adds an extra pinch of CINNAMON to the
beans before she mixes them with the rest of the
ingredients. The salsa can be served raw or cooked,
which mellows the flavor. To cook, heat the salsa in
a skillet over medium heat. Bring to a boil, remove
from the heat and let cool. Serve chilled or at room
temperature.

now to come up with something to use in rotation
with balsamic vinegar to add tartness, sweetness
and that dash of flavor that so many of todayвЂ™s
quick-cooked meals want. Raspberry
Enlightenment helps. DonвЂ™t think of it as a way to
make things taste like raspberry; think of it as a
background flavor that makes everything taste
better, especially vegetables, pasta, salads and
quickly-cooked meats. Give it a try. It is designed
to help you explore your own creativity.
Ingredients: raspberries, sugar, water, tapioca starch,
spices, citric acid.

Buttermilk Ranch
Ranch style salad dressing is lower in fat than most, as it
uses buttermilk for flavor and body. Also excellent for fresh
vegetable dip, or sprinkled on baked chicken or fish, 1-2
tsp. per lb. To make 1 cup dressing, mix 1 TB. seasoning in 1
TB. water, let stand five minutes, then whisk with В№/2 cup
buttermilk and В№/2 cup mayonnaise. For a lower calorie
version use low-fat mayonnaise, or up the proportion of
buttermilk, which will make the dressing thinner, but
equally tasty. Ranch dressing should be refrigerated, check
the freshness date on the buttermilk carton, and write it
on the dressing bottle. Hand-mixed from: salt, bell peppers,
garlic, onion, sugar, black pepper, parsley, thyme and basil.

Country French Vinaigrette
Making your own salad dressing is
easy and inexpensive, and the finished
product is far better than those sold at
the supermarket. Each dressing can be
tailored to your individual tastes and
the fat and calorie content are yours to
control. Feel free to experimentвЂ”make
the Italian dressing as a vinaigrette or a
creamy style, add a teaspoon of Dijon
mustard or a handful of chopped chives,
whatever youвЂ™d like. These dressings are
also great for fresh vegetable or chip dip
or as flavorful sandwich spreads; just
use the creamy styles, such as Buttermilk
Ranch, Creamy Peppercorn or Green
Goddess. All of the dressings are
delicious on pasta or potato salad and
make nice marinades for chicken or fish.
Dressings can be made ahead of time and
stored in the refrigeratorвЂ”so they can be
ready when your salad is, without having
to be mixed each time.

but lighter, perfect for today's salads. Filled with flavorful

Green Goddess
Salt-free. An old-fashioned, classical style salad dressing,
somewhat like a mild, sweet, herb-filled creamy Italian,
heavy on the basil and dill. This base is not only nice for
green salads, it is great for fresh vegetable dip or as a light,
refreshing alternative to tartar sauce on baked or fried
fish. This base is very good without salt, but salt can be
added to taste (try В№/2 tsp. per cup), or a squeeze of lemon
juice could be added in place of salt. To make one cup of
dressing, mix 1 rounded TB. GREEN GODDESS in 2 TB.
water, let stand 5 minutes. Whisk with 2вЃ„3 - 3вЃ„4 cup regular
or low-fat mayonnaise and 1 TB. vinegar. This dressing will
be thick (nice for dip), thin with 1-2 TB. water if desired.
Store in the refrigerator. Hand-mixed from: green onion,
sugar, basil, celery flakes, minced garlic and dill weed.

Grilled Tuna Salad
This is a wonderful and filling meal, and the tuna and veggies cook in a flash. For another recipe from Pam
Fairchild, and to read her story, turn to page 60.
2 tuna steaks, 4-6 oz. each
4 tsp. olive oil, divided
2 tsp. NORTHWOODS SEASONING
10 small red potatoes, scrubbed
and quartered
8 oz. fresh green beans, ends trimmed
and halved crosswise
1вЃ„4 tsp. GROUND BLACK PEPPER
1вЃ„4 tsp. GRANULATED GARLIC POWDER
1вЃ„8 tsp. salt
2 small heads butter lettuce or a mix of
butter and Romaine lettuce, torn into
bite-sized pieces
2-3 small ripe tomatoes, cut into eighths
French Salad Dressing:
1 Cup salad oil
1вЃ„4 Cup cider vinegar
1вЃ„3 Cup ketchup
1 small onion, minced
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
Heat your grill to medium-high heat. Place the
potatoes and green beans in a grill pan, basket or
a foil pan lightly coated with non-stick cooking
spray. Brush lightly with the remaining olive oil.
Sprinkle with PEPPER, GARLIC and salt. Grill the
vegetables until tender, about 10-12 minutes. The
tuna can grill at the same time. It should take about
3-4 minutes per side.
While the tuna and veggies cook, divide the lettuce
between two plates and prepare the dressing
by combining all of the ingredients and mixing
well. When the tuna and veggies are done, divide
between the plates, slicing the tuna if desired. Top
with tomatoes and serve with the dressing on the
side.
Prep. time: 15 minutes plus 1 hour marinating time
Cooking time: 12 minutes
Serves: 2 (although you will have a lot of dressing
left over)
вЂњI can spend all day in the kitchen baking
or cooking and itвЂ™s just fun. Then I share

is always a good thing.вЂќ

Beef Soup Base and Seasoning
For rich beef stock use В№/2 - 3/4 tsp. Beef Base for each
cup (8 oz.) hot water. This is equivalent to 1 bouillon
cube, though Beef Base has more flavor and less salt.
Plain beef broth is wonderful when youвЂ™re under the
weather, or add noodles or vegetables for a quick lunch.
To вЂњbeef upвЂќ the flavor of soup, stew or gravy, add 2-3
tsp. Beef Base. For 2 quarts of soup or stew, add 2-3 tsp.

recommended, but not necessary.
Ham Base is traditionally used to add rich, smoky ham
flavor to split pea or bean soup. For 2 quarts soup or

Saffron
Saffron is the stigma of the fall
flowering crocus. Peek inside
most any flower and you will see
three threadlike filaments. These are
stigmaвЂ” but only in the saffron crocus
are these stigma worth thousands
of dollars per pound. Saffron is so
valuable because it is a very labor
intensive crop; only 5-7 pounds of
saffron can be produced from each
acre of land. This makes saffron
the most expensive spice by
weight. However, saffron isn't the
most expensive by use because a
little goes a long way. A single gram
of saffron easily translates into golden
color and fragrant flavor in 10 recipes
of saffron rice, several batches of bread,
or a couple of big pots of paella.

The п¬‚avor of shallots is similar to a sweet cross
between onions and garlic, but more delicate, rich and
complex. Shallots are used in France for poultry, veal,
salads, eggs and soups. In Indonesia, shallots are used
to add rich, sweet flavor to satay, soup & dipping
sauces. If your recipe calls for fresh shallots, use half as
much as the recipe calls for. A В№/2 tsp. of freeze-dried
shallots equals one clove fresh shallots. From California.

Herby Cheese Bread
Jen Wszalek (story on page 27) writes, вЂњGram used to make this just for my brother, who was a picky
eater. The original recipe called for onions, which of course are omitted. She also added small cheese
cubes to lure him into eating her (superb) cooking. I like to experiment with cheeses and herbs to
make a different combination every time.вЂќ
31вЃ„2 Cups flour, divided
2 pkgs. regular or quick-rise yeast
2 TB. sugar
1вЃ„2 tsp. RUBBED SAGE
1вЃ„2 tsp. CRACKED ROSEMARY
1вЃ„4 tsp. THYME
1вЃ„4 Cup butter or margarine (1вЃ„2 stick), melted
11вЃ„4 Cups warm water
1 egg
1 tsp. salt
1 Cup small cheddar cheese chunks
Preheat oven to 375В°. In a large bowl, combine 11вЃ„2 Cups of the flour, the yeast, sugar and
HERBS. Mix well. Add the warm water, melted butter and egg. Make sure the water and butter
are warm, not boiling hot, so they donвЂ™t affect the egg. Blend at low speed until moistened and
then beat at medium speed for 3 minutes until well combined. Stir in the salt and remaining
flour by hand to make a stiff dough. Add the cheese. Spoon into a greased casserole dish
(21вЃ„2-quart, glass or ceramic). Cover the dish and let the dough rise in a warm spot until doubled
in size, about 35 minutes-1 hour, depending on the yeast. Do not let the dough rise over the
top of the dish as it will flop over the sides. Bake at 375В° for 30-40 minutes, until the crust feels
firm and the loaf is nicely browned.

Madagascar Vanilla Beans
Regarded as the world's best, Madagascar beans set
the standard for prime vanilla flavor.
3 beans #58430 $ 7.65
15 beans #58456 $ 30.19
Mexican Vanilla Beans
Mexican beans, while similar to Madagascar,
have a darker flavor that is perfect for vanilla
liqueur and coffee drinks.
3 beans #58630 $ 7.65
15 beans #58656 $ 30.19
Vanilla Sugar
The rich flavor of pure vanilla is like
no other. It just wouldnвЂ™t be dessert
without vanilla. Vanilla Beans from
Madagascar and Mexico, where there is
a long history of growing vanilla, have
wonderful, strong flavor, and are best
used in ice cream and custard, beverages
and cheesecake, where the liquid in the
dish helps extract the flavor of the bean.
Given that one whole vanilla bean is
usually used per recipe, it is easy to see
why Pure Vanilla Extract is the more
popular and economical choiceвЂ”if
one can use economical and vanilla in
the same sentence. Using 1 teaspoon
per dessert, a 4 fluid ounce bottle of
extract will yield 24 dessertsвЂ”more or
less anyway, given that most of us add
a bigger splash than the recipe calls for.
Even our Single Strength Vanilla Extract
is 10% stronger than the grocery store
variety, and our Double strength Vanilla
will give you twice as much vanilla
flavor. Vanilla Sugar is a favorite here
at Penzeys, but has also been made and
used for years and years by Grandmas
everywhere. It is made simply by
splitting a vanilla bean and placing it in
sugar until it becomes rich with vanilla
flavor, then removing the bean and
using the sugar in baking (replace 1 TB
of the regular sugar in the recipe with
1 TB of Vanilla Sugar). We also love
tossing Vanilla Sugar with fresh fruit like
strawberriesвЂ”after a few minutes even
kids think it is as good as a cookie.

Wash and cut fruit, leaving slightly damp, then toss
with Vanilla Sugar (1-2 TB per quart of strawberries, for
example) and let stand for a few minutes, then serve
plain or as a topper for cereal or ice cream. Vanilla
Sugar is an old-fashioned mix of real Vanilla Beans
aged in pure sugar, that was used in the old days
before Vanilla Extract. WeвЂ™ve been blending and using
Vanilla Sugar in our coffee for a long time, and it tastes
great. Vanilla Sugar can be used in baking and
candy-making, and is particularly nice where the flavor
of the vanilla bean should shine through, such as in
ice-cream. Vanilla sugar is also the perfect sprinkle for
coffee and hot chocolate. Madagascar and Mexican
Vanilla Beans chopped, mixed and aged with white sugar.

Single Strength Vanilla
35% alcohol. Pure extract from the highest quality
100% premium Madagascar вЂњBourbon IslandsвЂќ vanilla
beans. These beans have a rich and complex, smooth,
true flavor. The cool-perking process retains the bean's
full flavor, along with all of the desirable vanilla side
notes. With over 400 flavor components in every
high-quality vanilla bean, artificial vanilla (which
contains only oneвЂ“synthetic vanillin) will never come
close to matching the wonderful richness of pure
vanilla extract. This extract is 10% stronger than the
pure vanilla extract sold in supermarkets, and has the
great Madagascar flavor. Ingredients: water, alcohol,
sugar and vanilla bean extractives.

35% alcohol. Pure double strength vanilla extract made
from the highest quality Madagascar вЂњBourbon IslandsвЂќ
vanilla beans. Compared to the single strength, twice as
many beans are used to make each gallon of extract
(about 200 beans). вЂњTwo-foldвЂќ vanilla extract has been
the secret ingredient of professional bakers for years. For
the amount of vanilla flavor specified in a recipe, use half
as much. When used this way, double strength vanilla
makes economic sense, as there is the equivalent of
twice as much vanilla per bottle. For unbeatably rich
vanilla flavor in baked goods and desserts, use the same
amount the recipe calls for. Ingredients: water, alcohol,
sugar and vanilla bean extractives.

Rand, left, and Steve visit the kitchen garden at
the Chateau of Villandry during a trip to France.
Rand Schmidt
T
he best reward for me is to see
students work through challenges and
eventually become excellent workers,вЂќ
says Rand Schmidt, a teacher who
helped develop the School to Work
Transition Program in Milwaukee
Public Schools.
вЂњThis doesnвЂ™t always happen in
one short semester. The challenge is
to have the patience to work toward
this goal. We must find the balance
between supporting and challenging
the students to step out of their
comfort zones to learn new patterns
of behavior.вЂќ
The program provides students
with special needs the opportunity
to spend half of their school day
learning job skills in local businesses.
They are mentored by the businessesвЂ™
employees and are job coached by
dedicated teachers like Rand, who
begins his 32nd year in MPS this fall.
вЂњI currently have just under two
dozen students working at the new
Columbia St. MaryвЂ™s Hospital in
Milwaukee in a variety of volunteer
positions, including environmental
services, food services, patient care
assistance, shipping and receiving
and sterile processing. Our students
are not paid, but earn credit toward
graduation. Our program works with
approximately 200 students each year,
and we see it as a vital link between
the studentвЂ™s classroom and their
transition to adulthood and potential
almond, lemon and orange extracts on page 19 .
employment in the community.
вЂњThere are good things
happening in the district and I
believe that our program is a great
example of the community coming
together to make a better world for
those who need this extra support.
вЂњI was compelled to pursue a
career in Vocational Rehabilitation
after witnessing the help that was
provided to my father when he
became disabled and unable to work
a traditional 40-hour work week.
My sister became a registered nurse
because she observed nurses caring
for my father during his illnesses and
wanted to help others in the same
way.
вЂњI lost my dad when I was in high
school, and that was part of my
learning how to cook. Back then
there were more gender roles and
when my mother had to go back
to work my sister was supposed to
do the cooking and I had to clean
up every night. Well I never liked
cleaning dishes that much and my
sister didnвЂ™t enjoy cooking so I got to
trade off with her. And thatвЂ™s when
I began checking books out of the
library and teaching myself how to
cook. There were many mistakes
along the way, but I now take great
pleasure in preparing and serving
food.
вЂњOne of the best ways to make a
connection with other people is to
provide a meal for them. At school
we celebrate all of our kidsвЂ™ birthdays
so IвЂ™m always baking something and
bringing it in for them.вЂќ
When Rand isnвЂ™t teaching or
cooking for his partner Steve heвЂ™s
spending summers tending to his
beautiful Milwaukee yard. вЂњYou can
draw a parallel between landscaping
and teaching. YouвЂ™re not quite sure
what youвЂ™re going to end up with
when you start, but if you tend to it
and care for it hopefully youвЂ™ll get a
great result.вЂќ

Gingerbread Cake with Lemon Sauce
This decadent dessert from Rand is incredibly moist and delicious.
1 Cup boiling water
1вЃ„2 Cup shortening
1 Cup molasses
21вЃ„2 Cups all-purpose flour
1вЃ„2 Cup sugar
1 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. POWDERED GINGER
1вЃ„2 tsp. CINNAMON
1вЃ„2 tsp. GROUND CLOVES
1 egg
1 tsp. PURE VANILLA EXTRACT
Lemon Sauce:
1вЃ„3 Cup sugar
4 tsp. cornstarch
1 Cup cold water
1 TB. cold butter
1 tsp. PURE LEMON EXTRACT
1вЃ„4 tsp. VANILLA EXTRACT (optional)
1-2 drops yellow food coloring (optional)
Whipped Cream (optional)
Preheat oven to 350В°. In a large mixing bowl, pour
the boiling water over the shortening; stir until
melted. Stir in the molasses. In a separate bowl,
stir together the flour, sugar, baking soda, GINGER,
CINNAMON and CLOVES. Gradually add the dry
ingredients to the molasses mixture along with the
egg and VANILLA; beat only until blended. Pour
into a lightly greased and floured 10-inch fluted
tube pan. Bake for 45 to 50 minutes or until the
cake tests done with a wooden skewer. Cool on
a wire rack 10 minutes. Unmold and cool on wire
rack completely, or serve warm.
For the sauce: Combine the sugar, cornstarch
and cold water in a saucepan. Cook and stir over
medium heat until thickened and bubbly, generally
6-8 minutes. Cook 2 more minutes. The sauce
should get glossy and clear. Remove from heat and
stir in the LEMON EXTRACT, VANILLA EXTRACT (if
using), butter and yellow food coloring, if desired.
Stir gently until butter melts. Cover the surface
with plastic wrap and cool. Drizzle over the cake
before serving. Add a dollop of whipped cream if
desired.

Preheat oven to 400В°. For the filling: In a bowl,
toss the apples with the lime or lemon juice. In a
separate bowl, combine the dry ingredients. Add
the dry ingredients to the apples and toss to coat.
Line a 9вЂќ pie plate with the bottom crust pastry.
Add the filling and dot with a little butter. Place
the top crust over the filling. Trim the crust, seal
and flute the edges. Cut slits in the top crust and
bake at 400В° for about 40-50 minutes, until the
crust is golden brown and the apples are tender.
Meanwhile, make the topping. Melt the butter in
a saucepan, stir in the brown sugar, VANILLA and
cream. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly, roughly
5 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the
pecans. Pour over the top crust when the pie is
done and bake an additional 3-4 minutes. It helps
to place a pan on the rack under the rack the pie is
on to catch any topping that drips off.

Using a fork or your fingers, mix the butter with the
flour and salt until it looks likes peas and crumbles.
Drizzle the milk in bit by bit, using the fork or a
spoon to blend the crust until it just sticks together.
You may not need all the milk. Divide the dough
in two pieces, one a bit bigger to be the bottom
crust. Pat the pieces into disc shapes and cover
with plastic wrap. Refrigerate at least 20 minutes,
which is about as long as it takes to peel and chop
the apples. Dust tabletop with flour before gently
rolling out crust.

вЂњGraduation Day! I accomplished this
with the amazing support from my
husband Tom and my children Matt
(left) and Tim (right). вЂњ
Pam Fairchild
I
believe that education
encompasses more than stepping into
a classroom,вЂќ says Pam Fairchild of
Amherst, Wisconsin.
вЂњEvery person is an educator
whether it is teaching someone how
to read, how to function in a diverse
society or how to cook a delicious
meal. Parents, friends, co-workers,
teachers, bus drivers and secretaries
are all educators.
вЂњI became best friends with a girl
who lived down the street from me.
Carol and I would sit in the breezeway
to sip a lemonade and read or color.
Her family taught me how to roller
skate and swim.
вЂњThey also taught me about
unconditional love, tolerance and
understanding. Their older son was a
special needs child. I was 10 years old
and had never met anyone like him.
This family taught me to experience
aspects of their family life, heritage
and traditions. To this day I think
of them with fondness and love for
all of the valuable life lessons they
taught me.
вЂњToday it is necessary to have a high
school education and in most cases a
college education. In my opinion the
first 12 years of school give you the
tools necessary to function in society
and let you explore areas that may
interest you for the future.
вЂњI went to a community college
right out of high school and earned
an AssociateвЂ™s Degree. I transferred to
another college and then started my
family, so I delayed the continuation
of college. In 2003 when my youngest
son Tim was graduating from high
school he encouraged me to go back
to school. I did, one class at a time.
вЂњThe challenges of going back to
school were many, but I knew that
continuing my education would
open new opportunities for me. The
support from my family, friends and
fellow students was amazing. I kept
a card in my backpack that I would
take out from time to time to read.
The encouraging words on it kept me
going.
вЂњIt was a great accomplishment for
me to earn my degree. Education is
the path to success and although the
path may get rough you can always
learn and take something from it.
вЂњI have worked with the school
district for 19 years. My current
position is like a Sudoku puzzle. I
put together schedules for 1,600
students. At times itвЂ™s challenging, but
eventually it all works out.
вЂњI enjoy contributing to schoolrelated committees whether itвЂ™s
teaching students about nutrition or
Grilled Teriyaki Chicken
This is a simple recipe from Pam that is sure to please
even the pickiest eater. Serve with rice and a veggie
for a complete meal.
4-6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1вЃ„2 Cup sugar
1 Cup water
3 TB. cornstarch
1 1
вЃ„4- вЃ„3 Cup lemon juice (juice of 2 lemons)
1вЃ„2 tsp. POWDERED GINGER
1вЃ„4 Cup soy sauce (we use low sodium)
1
вЃ„2-1 tsp. LEMON PEPPER
Spray a grill pan or foil pan with non-stick cooking
spray. Add the chicken. In a bowl, combine the
sugar, water, cornstarch, lemon juice, GINGER, soy
sauce and LEMON PEPPER. Mix well. Pour over the
chicken. Heat your grill to medium-high heat. Place
the pan on the grill and cook the chicken for 30-45
minutes. The drippings are great drizzled over rice
and veggies! If you simply canвЂ™t wait that long,
place the chicken directly on the grill and cook for
about 3-5 minutes per side.

improving the communication within
our school. I like to help.
вЂњThere are so many directions we
can take in this world. IвЂ™m looking for
a career that will combine my love of
learning, travel, gardening, helping
people and cooking. Does such a job
exist? Maybe not, but in the meantime
IвЂ™m where I believe I am supposed to
be and volunteer anyplace I may be
needed.вЂќ

Kindness builds better futures. Kindness unlocks often unseen worlds
of potential.
Rand Schmidt (see page 50) helped develop a school to work program
for students who need extra support at Milwaukee Public Schools where
he has been a teacher for over thirty years. Rand decided he wanted to be
involved in vocational rehabilitation after meeting the people who took
care of and helped with his own father after he had become debilitated
during RandвЂ™s childhood. The program helps a couple hundred students a
year along the path to finding real jobs. Rand also bakes for the birthdays
of the kids in the program.
Kindness works.
Teachers are heroes.

Grandma SchmidtвЂ™s Apple Kuchen
A truly old-fashioned, homey dessert from Rand
Schmidt (story on page 50). One sniff and youвЂ™ll swear
youвЂ™re in your grandmaвЂ™s kitchen.

Cups all-purpose flour
Cup sugar
tsp. salt
tsp. baking powder
Cup cold butter, cut into small pieces
egg yolks
tsp. milk
tsp. PURE VANILLA EXTRACT
apples, peeled, cored and sliced*
Cup sugar (we substituted 2 of the TB. of
sugar with VANILLA SUGAR)
TB. flour
tsp. PENZEYS CINNAMON
TB. butter, cut into small pieces
See spice Index on page 61
Preheat oven to 325В°. In a mixing bowl, combine
the flour, sugar, salt, baking powder and butter.
Blend with a pastry blender or your hands. In a
small bowl, beat the egg yolks. Add the VANILLA
and milk. Add the egg mixture to the crumbled
dry ingredients, stir gently with a spoon until just
blended. Press the dough on the bottom and up
the sides of an 8x12x2 greased glass baking dish.
This is an old-fashioned pan size, a bit smaller
than our modern 9x13, but is still available. A
9x13 can be used but the crust will be thinner,
and a larger sized apple should be used so three
rows of apple slices still fills the top. In the photo,
which is an 8x12, regular-sized McIntosh worked
well. Arrange the apple slices in 3 lengthwise rows
on top of the crust. In a separate bowl, combine
the streusel ingredients and blend with a pastry
blender or your hands until the mixture resembles
peas. Sprinkle over the apple slices. Bake at 325В° for
45-50 minutes (35-40 minutes if using a 9x13 pan),
until the crust is golden brown and the apples look
nicely glazed.
*If you prefer soft-cooked apples, use McIntosh. For
a firmer apple, use Granny Smith or your favorite
pie apple. We used Macs, and they kept their shape
beautifully while melting in your mouth.
