We Love God!

God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)

A man who is eating or lying with his wife or preparing to go to sleep in humility, thankfulness and temperance, is, by Christian standards, in an infinitely higher state than one who is listening to Bach or reading Plato in a state of pride.

INGREDIENTS

4 c Sliced yellow onions
4 tb Olive oil; up to 6
Chilled pie crust dough; recipe follows
Salt and pepper
1 ts Dried oregano; thyme or mixed
; dried herbs
2 cn Flat anchovy fillets; packed in oil (
; 2-ounce)
24 Black olives; (Mediterranean)
1/2 c Grated Parmesan cheese
1 3/4 c Unbleached all-purpose flour
1 ts Salt
1 1/4 Sticks chilled unsalted butter
2 tb Chilled lard or shortening
5 tb Iced water; up to 8

INSTRUCTIONS

DOUGH
Cook the onions slowly in 4 tablespoons of olive oil in a roomy covered
frying pan or saucepan, stirring frequently, until they are soft and
thoroughly tender, but not browned-20 minutes or more.
Meanwhile, butter the bottom (not the sides) of the jelly-roll pan. Rapidly
roll out the chilled dough into a rectangle 1/8- thick, and larger and
wider than the pan. Fit it into the pan, and neatly trim off the
overhanging edges. Fold edges of dough down against bottom all around;
press a decorative border into them with the tines of a table fork. Prick
inside surface of dough all over with 2 forks, to keep it from rising up
during baking. Cover and refiderate until you are ready to continue.
When onions are tender, season carefully with salt and pepper, and either
let them cool or stir over cold water until cool. Spread them over the
inside surface of the dough.
Baking: Preheat oven to 425 degrees
While the oven is pre-heating, arrange a diagonal design of anchovies, over
the onions with black olives at strategic intervals. Sprinkle the cheese
over the onions and the design, and dribble on a tablespoon of olive oil.
Bake in lower third level of oven for 25 to 30 minutes until pastry has
browned and is beginning to shrink from the sides of the pan.
Dough:
Measure the flour and salt into the Processor. Quarter the chilled butter
lengthwise, cut crosswise into 3/8 pieces, and add to the bowl along with
the chilled lard or shortening, cut into small pieces.
Turn machine on and off 4 or 5 times to break up the fat. Measure out 5
tablespoons iced water, turn the machine on, and pour it in. Turn machine
on and off 5 or 6 times, and dough should begin to mass on blade; if not,
dribble in another tablespoon water and repeat. Repeat again if necessary.
Dough is done when it has begun to mass; it should not be overmixed. Remove
dough to your work surface.
With the heel, not the warm palm of your hand rapidly and roughly smear
dough out 6 to 8 inches on your work surface by 3 spoonful bits, to make a
final blending of fat and flour. If pastry seems stiff, sprinkle on
droplets more water as you smear. It should be pliable, not damp and
sticky. Knead and press it rapidly into a rough cake, flour lightly, and
wrap in a sheet of plastic or put in a plastic bag. Chill for 1 hour,
preferably 2 hours, before using, which will allow dough to relax while the
flour particles absorb the liquid.
