TRADER JOE'S WIDE VARIETY OF NEW FOODS TASTE TEST

[@cindynau8068]

My most requested recipe is my pecan praline bits, which my grandmother used to make. I make 20 pounds of these every Christmas for gifts. Here is the recipe: mix 1/2 cup of heavy cream, 1 cup of packed brown sugar, a teaspoon of pure vanilla in a large mixing bowl. Add 4 cups of pecan halves. Mix until well coated. Spread on two large cookies sheets LINED WITH PARCHMENT PAPER. Bake for about 20 minutes in a 350 degree oven, convection setting is preferable. Stir the nuts after about 10 minutes, then after 5 minutes, then watch them so they don't burn. Store them in an airtight container. ***The key is watching them the last 5 minutes. They should look dry, but don't let them burn. People start asking for these before Thanksgiving!!!

[@midlifemom5829]

Is the bake time for convection? Would it be longer for regular baking?

[@cindynau8068]

If baking in a non-convection oven, just keep checking and stirring the nuts the last 5 minutes. You want them to look dry but not too dark.

[@Patriot_Lady1776]

I don't have one that's passed down but my kids really liked this: 1) Saute onion and yellow squash - carmelize (can add zuchini) - add a bit of soy sauce. 2) Add cooked brown rice and mix well 3) Cover with cheddar cheese - put lid on and melt. The caramelized veggies give this dish a surprisingly good flavor. ❤

[@sydneycarlson7688]

Dry farmed means they don’t water the grapes. They grow just from the rain. My favorite family recipe is my great grandmas shortbread. 1/2 cup sugar 1 cup butter (room temp) 2 to 2 1/4 cup flour (you want a crumbly texture) Put it all in a good processor (or use a pastry cutter) Press firmly into a 9x9 pan and use a fork to score it every half inch or so. Bake at 300 for 50-60 min. You want to bake till it barely turns brown. Got the recipe engraved on a cutting board in my grandmas handwriting as a Christmas present for my mom a few years ago. It’s the best!

[@lizmccue5820]

Was you're Grandma from Scotland? My mom was from Scotland and the recipe sounds just like hers. I love the cutting board idea.😊

[@sydneycarlson7688]

@@lizmccue5820 she is mostly Swedish and Norwegian but the recipe in her cookbook says “Scottish shortbread” so that tracks!

[@RCRUNCHY1]

It isn't really a recipe but in all honestly, my uncle taught me this. It is Rice Pilaf like you never had it before. You cook 1 box of Uncle Ben's long and wild rice. (It has to be this rice) Then once it is done add sour cream to taste some freshly sauteed sliced portabello mushrooms. (Tim's favorite) and there you have it. Honestly, everyone used to come to my house for this. I still make it and everyone asks for it when they come over. Sometimes the simplest stuff is really good.

[@mmeckes27]

Both of my parents were amazing cooks, so it's surprising now that I think of it, that I don't have any recipes that have been handed down. My dad made a great tuna casserole that used no canned soup, that I used to take to every pot luck, but I've somehow misplaced the recipe and I'm so sad that I can't find it. I mostly remember the ingredients, so I think I'll have to experiment to see if I can figure it out again. My most requested recipe is Jalapeno Poppers. I use 30-40 jalapenos, halved with seeds/ribs removed, 2 blocks of cream cheese, softened, about 2 cups (just eyeballing) of shredded sharp cheddar and a pound of bacon. Traditionally, the cream cheese and cheddar are mixed up, scooped into the jalapeno halves and wrapped with bacon. I like to chop the bacon, fry it up then add the bits into the cream cheese, cheddar mix. Scoop the mix into each jalapeno half and bake at 375 for about 20-25 minutes. When the bacon is wrapped around the pepper, it often pulls off with the first bite. My way, you get bacon in each bite. There was a time when I couldn't show up to a party without these poppers. They were my mother-in-law's absolute favorite and I actually gave her a full batch for Mother's Day one year. I hadn't made them since last summer, then got a request from my nephew to make them for his birthday party a couple of weeks ago.

[@adoptingjoseph]

Thanks for the review and Tim, thanks for being brave. The handed down recipe I make every Thanksgiving in my grandmother's stuffing. It's unusual in that it's made with mashed potatoes and bread. If you google Pennsylvania Dutch stuffing, you'll find a bunch of recipes for it. The other one I make all the time is my mother's pumpkin bread. This makes two big loaves and it freezes perfectly. I half the recipe all the time and it works great. Pumpkin Bread 5 1/2 c flour 2t baking soda 1 1/2 t cinnamon 1t nutmeg 3c sugar 1 c of oil 2/3 c cold water 4 beaten eggs 2 c pumpkin 1 cup walnut (optional) Combine the dry ingredients then make a well and add the wet ingredients. Bake in two well greased loaf pan for 1 hr and 15 minutes at 350. Test to make sure it's baked through and add five minutes if needed.

[@kathy2933]

Could you please let us know the oven temperature on this pumpkin bread? This recipe looks delicious. I’m going to try it out next month. :)

Thank you for tasting the ancient vine wine. I will keep the bottle I got and probably have it tonight with our dinner. Tim's expression before he bit into the cod tart - priceless!

My mom makes a fruit compote to go with spiral ham. It’s cold and refreshing paired with the salty ham. It’s just some cranberries shopped apples and pears with sugar and a fresh squeezed orange. Boil over to stove and once soft let it sit on the stove off the heat for a bit to thicken up. Add in some cinnamon and cardamom. Cardamom is a must to bring it all together.

[@sr9802]

My mom only Cooked 3 things and nothing special. My husband and son love my quick and east banana bread. My daughter won’t eat anything banana 😳 One box yellow cake mix, 2 eggs, 3-4 overripe bananas, 1 cup choc chips ( can add nuts if want to ). Mix together bake at 350 35-40 min . Hopefully my son will keep it going. Thx for the taste test !😊

Thank you guys for your great reviews! I love it when you do the taste test. Really helps a lot.

[@Rebeccaac]

I’m so happy that Tim and I share the same recipe! I grew up on meat and potatoes and it’s hard to break the comfort food habit. I grew up with aldente spaghetti, butter and salt and always had meatballs or meat sauce or sausage and jar sauce on the side with sprinkles Parmesan and still make it sometimes. I grew up with Ronzoni and Prego but use other brands now. I also love scrambled eggs with mustard, a childhood favorite.

[@klimtkahlo]

Both my dad and mom were / are great cooks! So many cod dishes and a sort of Portuguese Sheppard pie my dad perfected. Sadly I am not really great nor have their energy to cook everyday but a lot of the stuff was not written down, so it may be lost! Sometimes I see some youtubers share “my parents” recipes and it fills me up with joy! I honestly don’t know how they did it raising three children, having a big house that was always spotless clean, being present and always cooking everyday. We would go a whole month without repeating meals and yes all my friends loved to eat at my house. No idea how they made it!!! ❤

[@marleneroberts2257]

Another family recipe::: 1 package of lime jello ( the large package), 1 large cream cheese, 1 large can of crushed pineapple. Make jello following directions on package, put in blender and add cut up cream cheese, add and blend.Add drained crushed pineapple and put mixture in 9x13 dish and put in frig.

Peanut Clusters::: 1 can of salted peanuts,1 package of chocolate morsels,1 package of butterscotch morsels.Melt morsels in pan on stove( medium heat) add peanuts and drop in waxed paper in cluster form. Let cool before eating.Can put in frig. to firm up.

[@bonnielemmon8493]

I loved the hesitation on Tim’s face trying the cod custard. This taste test was so much fun. My TJ’s was all sold out of the wine but will be stocking the shelves again tomorrow. I did manage to grab a melon, cooling off in the refrigerator now. Peanut butter bar recipe was handed down to me. They are so good, but I only make them once a year. They are not hard just very time consuming. I’m anxious to hear about the pasta salad. I know it will be great. Enjoy your weekend. 😊

[@SandyHemsher]

I make my Grandma’s Walnut Cookies every Christmas, as well as my Mom’s friend’s recipe for Fannie Mae Fudge. Both are outstanding. My Grandma sold these cookies to help out during the Depression. My mom’s friend wrote Fannie Mae for their recipe and offering to pay for recipe. In the early ‘70’s she was surprised to get it with a bill for $300. Gave that recipe to everyone for the next 30 years!!!

[@lose999]

I make a tortilla Espanola which is a potato and onion omelet from Spain. I recommend Spain on a Fork KZbin channel for a good recipe/method. That channel has mostly vegetarian recipes I think you'll like. I lived in Spain as a child so many recipes I remember are featured on that channel, especially the wonderful tapas recipes which pair well with red wines.😉

Fun video! My recipe is similar to Tim’s. We called it macaroni and tomatoes. And it was just that simple, cook elbow macaroni noodles drain and put back in pot and add a can of petite diced tomatoes and heat together. Serve with butter, salt and pepper! It’s delicious. 🤗

[@suzieq4750]

My father was a wonderful cook and made a lot of excellent dishes, however, it was all done by eye and taste. No recipes. My sister and I picked up what we could and our dishes are tweaked to our taste so they are similar but not exact. He wouldn't let us in the kitchen while he cooked so we had to learn from afar. I have 5 children and they all learned to cook pretty much the same way. I don't measure unless I'm baking. My dishes that they love are my stuffing, red cabbage, my vegetable lasagna and my lobster bisque.

Great right out of the oven with butter and jam. Sometimes, I just make them for dinner. I don't use the recipe on the box, which has been "updated", so don't go expecting the recipe there to be good. But maybe for you it will be.

The correct terminology on the kiss melon is that it was developed to be a smoother and sweeter variation of the standard cantaloupe. So it is a cantaloupe, just a different variety.

[@Melissa-he5ys]

Buttered noodles are underrated! I’ve been wanting them since Tim mentioned them. Looking forward to watching your egg bake video.

There’s also a really good sweet potato 🍠 casserole that I got from a random church cookbook.

That was a fun hall and taste test! I'm like Tim as I don't have any recipes as neither my mom or dad really pushed me to cook so I never really learned LOL but I do remember when I was young I didn't like spaghetti sauce or tomato sauce or too much of it in the morning our style so as a teenager I used to make spaghetti style my way which was angel hair pasta butter on top slice of cheese on top of that and then I put some spaghetti sauce around the pasta and not on top of it. I also put sour cream around the pasta so I mixed the sour cream with the spaghetti sauce and then I would just take a bite of basically the pasta with the butter the cheese the sour cream and the spaghetti sauce. That was my favorite way to eat spaghetti! I would end up making it for all kinds of people cuz they really ended up loving it that way, so it became one of my signature things I would make :-)

Love the taste test! Unfortunately, my grandma’s chocolate cake recipe is secret. It’s made for our birthdays. And she makes this frosting that uses coffee grounds and tastes like a jamocha shake. Then the other one would be her tea ring we make at Easter. You make the dough. You roll it out. You butter it and then you top it off with a cinnamon and brown sugar mixture and and chopped walnuts. Then you roll it up and you put it in a Bundt cake pan or something like that. Then you make a maraschino cherry glaze and add some maraschino cherries on top. It’s to die for.
