The Neely’s Deviled Eggs, Piggies in the Blanket and Sparkling Rasberry Lemonade

Tuesday December 27th, 2011

Cookin’ with The Neelys!

Simple Deviled Eggs
Ingredients:
12 large eggs, hard- boiled
1/3 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon dill- pickle relish
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed
lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Kosher salt and freshly ground
black pepper
Fresh chives, finely sliced, for garnish

Directions:
Peel and halve the hard- boiled eggs, and remove the yolks to a small bowl. Add the mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, relish, lemon juice, cayenne, salt, and pepper to the bowl, and mash everything together with a wooden spoon until smooth.

Pipe the filling back into the eggs halves with a frosting bag with a large star tip (or spoon it in with a teaspoon). Sprinkle with chives.

Note: To avoid pockmarked eggs, use older eggs. Th ey are generally
easier to peel than fresh, and I hate peeling eggs!

Tip: Place the eggs in a large saucepan, and cover with cold
water. Once the pot has come to a boil, cover the pot and
remove from heat; let the eggs sit in the water for 14 minutes.
Rinse under cold water, then peel.

Smoked Cheesy Piggies in a Blanket
Ingredients:
Two 8- ounce cans prepared
crescent dough
1/4 cup Neely’s BBQ sauce (see page
00), plus more for serving
1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
48 smoked cocktail wieners
Butter, for greasing
2 eggs, lightly beaten
3 tablespoons raw sesame seeds

Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Cut each triangle of crescent- roll dough into thirds lengthwise, making three small strips from each roll.

Brush the dough strips lightly with BBQ sauce, and sprinkle with cheese. Place a cocktail wiener on the wider end of each piece of dough, and roll up.

Place the piggies, seam side down, on a greased sheet tray. Brush with the beaten eggs and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until golden brown. Serve while warm with extra BBQ sauce for dipping.

Neely’s Barbecue Sauce
Ingredients:
2 cups ketchup
1 cup water
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons freshly ground black
pepper
1 1/2 teaspoons onion powder
1 1/2 teaspoons dry mustard powder
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1/2 cup apple- cider vinegar
2 tablespoons light corn syrup
1 tablespoon Neely’s Barbecue
Seasoning

Directions:
Combine all of the ingredients in a large pot or Dutch oven. Bring to a boil over high heat, stirring frequently to prevent sticking. Reduce temperature to very low and simmer, uncovered,
for at least 2 hours, stirring occasionally.

Remove from the heat, cool, and use as needed. Stored in a tightly sealed container,
this sauce will keep in the fridge for up to 2 months.

Sparkling Raspberry Lemonade
Ingredients:
4 cups fresh raspberries
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 1/2 cups water
Two 1- inch strips lemon zest
2 cups freshly squeezed lemon juice
2 liters seltzer water, chilled

Directions:
Put the raspberries, sugar, water, and lemon strips in a medium saucepan, and bring the liquid to a boil, stirring frequently so the sugar can dissolve and the fruit can soften. When it reaches the boil, turn off the heat and allow the mixture to steep for 10 minutes.

Strain the syrup through a fi ne sieve, and press on solids to extract all the juice and pulp from the berries. Discard the seeds and lemon strips. Refrigerate the syrup for 30 minutes, or until chilled.

Pour the chilled raspberry- lemon syrup and the lemon juice into a tall, large glass pitcher. Stir with a wooden spoon, then top with seltzer water. Serve in ice- filled glasses.
