    Title: Favourite Egg Nog
    Categories: Beverages, Eggs, Booze, I scream
    Yield: 30 Servings

    24 lg Eggs; separated
    2 c Sugar
    1 qt Bourbon
    2 c Brandy
    1 qt Heavy cream
    2 qt Milk
    1 qt Vanilla ice cream
    Nutmeg

    Beat egg yolks and sugar until thick. Add Bourbon and
    Brandy and stir thoroughly. (The liquor "cooks" the
    eggs.) Add cream and milk and continue whipping. Break
    up the ice cream and add. Beat egg whites until stiff
    and fold in. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before
    serving. Sprinkle lightly with nutmeg.

    NOTE 1: This is fairly potent and deceptively smooth, so
    you might wish to cut back on the Bourbon and Brandy a
    little.

    NOTE 2: If you can get it where you are, then the only
    ice cream to use in this recipe is on of the following
    BLUE BELL CREAMERY flavors - Natural Vanilla Bean,
    Homemade Vanilla, or French Vanilla.

    NOTE 3: Any good bourbon or sour mash will do, but Old
    Forester seems to add a special something to the taste.
    As for the brandy, don't waste the VSOP, but don't use
    that buck-fifty-a-liter varnish remover that you picked
    up on that last trip to Tijuana, either.

    Title: Tofurkey Loaf
    Categories: Vegetables, Sauces, Wine, Vegan
    Yield: 7 Servings

    2 lb (1 lb ea) blocks firm tofu
    3 tb Soy sauce
    1 1/2 tb Toasted sesame oil
    1 1/2 tb Dry sherry
    3 tb Water
    1/4 ts Pepper

    Freeze the tofu for at least one day then thaw it and
    squeeze out the excess water. This changes the
    consistency of the tofu, making it chewier and more
    porous.

    Place the two blocks of tofu next to each other in an
    oiled loaf pan, making sure that they are as close
    together as possible.

    Combine the soy sauce, sesame oil, sherry, water, and
    pepper to create a marinade.

    Pour 2/3 of this marinade over the tofu, cover the dish,
    and place it in the refrigerator overnight. Cover the
    remaining marinade and refrigerate it.

    Remove the tofu from the refrigerator and pour the
    remaining marinade over the top.

    Bake @ 350ºF/175ºC for 90 minutes, basting every half
    hour and flipping after 45 minutes. (When flipping the
    tofu, use caution so that it does not break apart.)

    Cool the tofu to room temperature or place in the
    freezer until cool, at which point it will have a firm,
    meaty consistency.

    Use it in sandwiches, as a main dish with gravy, or come
    up with your own serving ideas.

    Makes 6-8 servings
