  • Egg Salad – The Covered Dish
    Debbie Dance Uhrig The Ultimate egg!   In this cooks opinion it doesn’t get much better than eggs.  Homemade egg salad, deviled eggs, poached eggs, hard boiled, over easy any way you name it eggs provide us with some wonderful protein.  Experienced cooks will probably look at the column this week and say:  ‘What-who doesn’t know how to make egg salad?’ ...

  • Strawberry Tips – The Covered Dish
    Debbie Dance Uhrig Tis’ the season of fresh strawberries.  The prices in the grocery store are certainly pleasing.  Plus in a few short days the harvest will begin for those who have a patch of their own.  As a child growing up we would go to Mr. Krueger’s strawberry farm to pick berries.  We would go at the crack of dawn and pick berries wet with dew. ...

  • Homemade Bisquick and cornstarch – The Covered Dish
    Debbie Dance Uhrig I had the pleasure this week of dining with my good friend, Jim Jeffries, from Northern Platte County, Missouri.  Many of you use Jim’s wonderful ‘Black Kettle’ seasoning every day in your kitchens!  Jim has added two more wonderful seasonings to his collection.  If you haven’t visited him on line be sure and do so. I’ve...

  • Wilted Lettuce – The Covered Dish
    Debbie Dance Uhrig I bet I could set everyone on their ears with my recent recollection of ‘air travel’.  I flew into Des Moines, Iowa for a business meeting this past week and it certainly did not lack for adventure.  I’ll start with the fact that you do not get to Des Moines via any direct routes.  Then I’ll reflect on the fact that last Sunday...

  • Rhubarb Sauce – The Covered Dish
    Debbie Dance Uhrig I know I promised you a ‘hot off the press’ recipe this week.  Well, you’re just going to have to hold out a little bit longer.  They say good things come to those who wait!  I’m working on one and I’m not quite pleased with it yet.  Back to the drawing board we will go.  I’d say it’s about half way there. ...

  • Oriental Cabbage Salad – The Covered Dish
    Debbie Dance Uhrig There are so many wonderful versions of the Oriental Cabbage Salads.  Some even say:  ‘Oriental Cabbage Salad II’!  It’s a refreshing version of Cole slaw that seems to find its way to many family dinners.  This year it merged into to our Easter Dinner menu.  The originator of my recipe is Judy Sifers, from Granby, Colorado, fondly...

  • Pizza Please – The Covered Dish
    Debbie Dance Uhrig Everyone loves pizza in all shapes and forms.  With sauce or no sauce, standard mozzarella or more elite with asiago and gruyere.  Whole wheat crusts, thin crusts, deep dish or the ever constant white flour crust.  There’s a crust, sauce, and cheese to please every palate. I thought I might give all of my readers a few tips to take the hustle...

  • Cabbage Casserole – The Covered Dish
    Debbie Dance Uhrig I can’t remember when I last ran this recipe.  The magnificent cabbage is cut into thin ribbons wearing a disguise set to deceive.  Many have declared they were eating fine pasta while they were actually dining on streamers of finely chopped cabbage. Many creative cooks will be able to adapt this recipe to their own specifications.  Usually...

  • Pistachio Cake – The Covered Dish
    Debbie Dance Uhrig It’s felt like a very long week to this chick a dee.  Everything here in the Ozarks is springing into life in the fast mode.  I totally expect to hear big shrooning stories this week.  For those of you who don’t know what the bee geebers I’m talking about, its morel season here in the Midwest.  We’ve had the warm temperatures...

  • Home-style Chili – The Covered Dish
    Debbie Dance Uhrig This is not the typical column I would write for the week of St. Patrick’s Day.  Sharing this new chili recipe while there were still enough ‘chilly’ days left is top priority.  I will chatter a bit about what I’m serving for our Irish celebration. First keep in mind that I have an 11 year old son.  On the table for St. Patrick’s...
