Quicker Baked Potato

Try this method for speeding up the potato baking process (for a better texture than those that you microwave). Pre-heat the oven to 400. Place the potato in boiling water for 10 minutes. Bake for 30 minutes. This will cut the cooking time in half.

 

Ants Crawling Up Trees


vegetarian, grains

2/3 cup tvp
1/2 cup hot water
1 tablespoon chopped or grated ginger
1 root
2 tablespoon soy sauce
1 to 2 tbsp hot bean paste
1/2 teaspoon salt (optional)
3 1/2 oz bean thread noodles
2 cup veggie broth or water (avoid
1 broth that may have a sweet
1 taste)

Pour the boiling water over the TVP and let it sit for 10 minutes. Saute the gingerroot in a very small anount of oil or other liquid. Add the soy sauce, bean paste, salt and TVP. Cook very very gently and stir frequently as it burns easily. Cook about 5 minutes and set aside. Cook the bean threads in the broth until the broth has been absorbed by the noodles. Add the noodles to the TVP mixture and stir until blended evenly...ie. all the "ants" are distributed throughout. Enjoy! Source: This is a dish that was a favorite at our local Chineses eatery. I used to make it with ground turkey (before I saw the light) and have found that TVP works just as well. It's hot and spicy...delicious and just a little different.
