For enslaved people in western Missouri, the muddy Missouri River was all that separated them from Kansas, and freedom. Many waited until winter and went through the ice in what became known as slave stampedes.

Missouri continuously ranks in the top 10 of states for gun violence deaths and the number of women killed by their partners.  Domestic violence hotlines throughout Missouri receive on average about 200 calls a day, and in 2020 nearly 30,000 individuals received services through the state’s domestic violence programs.

St. Paul Sandwich (Fortune Express) JW Wed, 02/23/2022 - 12:28 Ingredients:

• Canola oil, for deep-frying (see tester’s note below)
• 1 cup fresh bean sprouts
• ¼ cup diced or thinly sliced onion
• 2 Tbsp diced green bell pepper
• 3 small cooked shrimp, peeled
• 3 Tbsp diced or shredded poached chicken
• 3 pieces cooked beef (1/8 inch thick, 1 inch wide and 1½ inches long)
• 1 large egg
• ¼ tsp cornstarch
• 1 Tbsp mayonnaise
• 2 slices white bread
• Iceberg lettuce leaf
• 2 thin slices tomato
• 3 to 4 dill pickle slices

Directions:

Pour about 4 cups oil into a deep-fryer or deep saucepan. Bring to 375ºF.
Break bean sprouts by crushing them lightly in the palm of your hand. Place in medium mixing bowl. Add onion, green pepper, shrimp, chicken and beef. Stir to combine.
Beat egg lightly with a fork in a small bowl. Mix in cornstarch. Pour egg mixture over the sprouts mixture. Stir well.

Place egg mixture in a shallow metal ladle 4¼ inches wide (big enough to hold it all).
Test the heat of the oil by throwing in a bean sprout. The sprout will immediately pop to the top if the oil is hot enough.

When oil is hot enough, gradually lower full ladle into hot oil, but don’t allow top of egg mixture to drop into the oil. The egg patty will cook in the ladle. Some hot oil will seep over the edges of the ladle. Cook until almost done, 2 to 3 minutes, then spoon a little of the hot oil over the top of the patty to finish the cooking.

Transfer egg patty to a slotted spoon. If any egg mixture drips out, return the patty to the ladle and place in the hot oil for an additional minute. The patty should be uniformly browned and sealed.

Spread mayonnaise on one slice of bread. Top with the iceberg lettuce and tomato slices. Slide the cooked egg patty onto the other slice of bread. Garnish with pickles. Close the sandwich. Wrap bottom in waxed paper and serve immediately.

Tester’s note: If you do not have a deep fryer, you can use a skillet, but the texture will not be the same. Heat 1 Tbsp oil in a 6-inch skillet; sauté the onion and green pepper over medium heat until the onion is translucent. Add the shrimp, chicken and beef and then the egg-cornstarch mixture; cook, stirring constantly, until the egg is scrambled.

1 serving

Ingredients:

• 1 Tbsp unsalted butter
• 1 cup shredded hash brown potatoes (refrigerated or frozen)
• 1 3-oz hamburger patty, cooked to desired doneness
• 2 eggs, fried or cooked in preferred style
• 2 Tbsp diced yellow or white onions
• 1 cup prepared mild chili with beans (such as Edmond’s Chile), heated through (see variation below)
• ½ cup grated mild cheddar cheese
• 2 slices buttered toast

Directions:

Melt butter in a 6-inch skillet; add hash browns and pan-fry until crispy and browned.
Spread hash browns in a layer on a large plate or oval platter.
Place hamburger patty in center of hash browns.
Set two cooked eggs over hamburger.
Sprinkle with raw onions.
Cover everything with chili, then top with grated cheese.

Variation: To make a super-slinger, in step 2, top the eggs with 8 to 10 jalapeño slices, then with a cooked tamale (removed from its wrapper or corn husk) and/or a cooked small bean burrito. Increase the amount of chili to 2 cups.

White Castle Dressing JW Wed, 02/23/2022 - 10:42

Description

Using the square sliders created by this Midwestern chain restaurant makes sense as the base of a quick Thanksgiving side: They bring the onion, meat and bread to this basic recipe, which is said to have been created by a White Castle employee who “enhanced her grandmother’s family stuffing recipe with a sack of those hamburgers."

These days, you don’t need to find one of the company’s restaurants to acquire the hamburgers; they are sold in the frozen section of supermarkets and some drug stores.

Make Ahead: The dressing can be assembled and refrigerated (unbaked) a day in advance.

Yield

8 Servings

Preparation time

1 hour

Cooking time

40 minutes

Total time

1 hour, 40 minutes

Ingredients

• 12 White Castle Hamburgers ((you can use regular or impossible))
• 2 T Olive Oil
• 2 clv Garlic (minced)
• 1 c Celery (about 4 ribs worth)
• 6 Sage (fresh, minced leaves)
• 1 t Thyme (fresh, minced leaves)
• 1⁄2 t Black Pepper (freshly ground to taste)
• 1 c Chicken Stock (or Turkey Stock (recipe calls for low sodium))

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Use cooking oil spray to grease a 3-quart casserole.

Remove pickles from the burgers, as needed, then cut the burgers into chunks and place in a mixing bowl.

Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once the oil shimmers, stir in the garlic and cook for about 20 seconds, until fragrant, then stir in the celery and cook for about 5 minutes, until softened. Remove from the heat, and add the sage, thyme and pepper, stirring to incorporate.

Transfer to the mixing bowl, add 1/2 cup of the broth or stock and stir until evenly moistened; add some or all the remaining broth or stock, as needed. Taste and adjust the pepper, as needed.

Bake (middle rack) for 30 to 40 minutes, until crisped on top. Serve warm.
