Sometimes in life you seem to end up following a path you never quite expected and that seems to be the case here at VoEA. When we started this blog we had a rough idea what we wanted to do and the rest has kind of followed. One of the recurring themes and also, it [&hellip
Donna at Hung Up On Retro and Kylie at Lucy Violet Vintage are co-hosting a Retro Cook-Off Saturday at noon...Melbourne, Australia time. To make up for the 20-hour time difference, I'm posting this at 8 o'clock on Friday night, rather than my usual midnight. I found my recipe for Swedish Salad Mold on Joys of Jello, and I want to give blogger Theresa Rohrer all the blame credit for it! :) Her post is entitled "When Spam Meets Jello," and I think that just about says it all. Here is a picture of the finished dish from a 1952 edition of American Home Magazine. joysofjello.blogspot.com And here's the recipe, which conveniently has dotted lines around it so you can print it and cut it out for your collection in the event that this retro dish looks really tasty to you. I will confess, however, that I made a few modifications to the original recipe. I bought an extra can of Spam...because, I mean, the more Spam the better, right? And I left out the black olives, because, to be honest, about halfway through the preparation of this dish, the smell of Spam was making me slightly nauseous, and I decided it would be nothing short of criminal to encase an innocent can of olives in a urine-colored gelatinous mass. With Spam. And pickles. After all, the olives were just sitting in the pantry minding their own business. joysofjello.blogspot.com This cook-off allowed me to test my limits in several areas, not the least of which involved my ability to manage my gag reflex. I also found out that being artsy and craftsy doesn't necessarily mean you're going to be good at sculpting pickles or decorating gelatin molds. In both areas, I found myself sadly limited. Maybe it was the nausea. And don't let me forget to tell you about going to the refrigerator to see if the concoction was "slightly thickened" and sloshing it all over my kitchen floor. Suffice it to say that it was not even remotely thickened. Anyway, without further ado, here is my entry of Swedish Salad Mold for the Retro Cook-Off. Don't even ask about the blob of white stuff. Trust me, you don't want to know. Swedish Salad Mold Swedish Salad Mold, with apologies to anyone from Sweden, anyone of Swedish descent or anyone who has ever even considered a vacation in Sweden If you're wondering about the two-tone appearance of my salad, I can explain. You see, even after adding the extra Spam, I didn't have enough of the gelatin mixture to fill the mold (which was really a Bundt cake pan, since I realized a long time ago how vile these recipes are and sold all my Jello molds). The only thing I had in my pantry that was even close to the color of the unflavored gelatin mixture was some orange sugar-free Jello, so there's a slightly runny layer of that at the bottom...and, if you're going to get technical about it, I suppose some seeped around the edges of the top layer and "blotchy" is a more accurate description, but "two-tone" sounded more mid-century. Hey, some people love sweet and savory! It might be fair to say the orange layer was a little more than runny. Most of it fell off during slicing. So let the competition begin! I think it may be difficult for anyone to top my dish in sheer ugliness, let alone hideous taste, and I fully expect to hear from angry Swedes denying any culpability for the recipe. Check out Donna's and Kylie's blogs to see what the rest of the participants prepared.

Mmmm, so much meaty gelatine.

Meatloaf igloo. I never thought I'd hear those two words together. And it's exactly what you think it is. My husband introduced me to this Buzzfeed list of "21 Truly Upsetting Vintage Recipes" and we squirmed and questioned each one, until we came to #20 - the Igloo Meatloaf. According to RochellesVintageRecipes, the recipe was part of a five-page spread in the January 1967 issue of Family Circle. Here's what the ad looked like: Doesn't that look... interesting? Ordinarily I would laugh and forget about it but today is my husband's birthday and when I asked him what he wanted for his birthday dinner, he said, "A migloo." Or an "igloaf", I don't remember which he preferred. So... ladies and gentleman... I attempted the 1967 meatloaf igloo and I encourage you to do the same! Here's what the recipe includes: For the Meatloaf: 2 lbs. ground beef (though I used just over a pound) 1/2 C fine dry bread crumbs 6 T minced onion 2 t salt 1/8 t pepper 1 1/3 C evaporated milk (though I ended up using only 1 C) For the Potato Frosting: 1 1/2 C water 2/3 C evaporated milk 1/2 t salt 1 T butter 1 envelope (3 1/2oz.) of instant mashed potatoes Cheddar cheese slices on top First, preheat your oven to 325 degrees. Combine all the meatloaf ingredients into a medium size bowl (they recommend a 6 C or 1 1/2 quart bowl). Once combined, pack down firmly into the bowl. Next, flip the bowl onto a shallow baking pan (I used a glass pie pan, which collected the juices I later poured out) and put it in the oven for anywhere between 75-90 minutes. I should have made it taller, not wider, but the potatoes added height to the igloo! When the timer has 15 minutes left, start to work on the potato frosting. In a saucepan, combine the ingredients listed above and bring to a boil. Remove from heat and pour the saucepan liquid into a bowl containing a packed of instant mashed potatoes. Whip or stir the instant potatoes with a fork briskly. Once the loaf is done, "frost" it with the potato mixture and using a knife or a toothpick, draw on the lines to make it look like an igloo. Note that yours isn't going to look exactly like the original because the original was shot by a professional food photographer. And it's probably not real mashed potatoes in the ad, anyway. I found it helped to dip a butter knife in hot water and then smooth it out as best I could, and then put the igloo lines in. Bake an additional 15 minutes. When it's done in the oven, place the cheddar cheese slices on top and return to the oven until the cheese starts to melt. With my oven, it took about 3 minutes. And there you have it kids... a meatloaf... igloo... with a birthday candle on top. As for how it tastes? My husband said, and I quote, "If this isn't the best meatloaf I've ever tasted, it is most certainly the best igloo-shaped meatloaf I've ever tasted." So enjoy! TOTAL COSTS: About $18 (all prices from Vons) $3.40 for cheddar cheese slices $6.31 for ground beef $2.29 for Panko breadcrumbs $.86 for an onion $2.58 for 2 cans of evaporated milk $.99 for butter $1.25 for 2 pouches of instant mashed potatoes Salt and pepper already on hand TOTAL AMOUNT OF TIME: Almost 2 hours 20 minutes to prep meatloaf 1 hour, 15 minutes in oven to bake 15 minutes in the oven with potatoes on EASY-PEASY SCALE (1 super easy - 5 very difficult): 2 out of 5 It's not difficult at all - the most "difficult" thing might be smoothing out the potatoes and making the lines straight, but that's about it!
