Strawberry Shortcake

Strawberry Shortcake?

Can anybody tell me the basic ingredients and steps needed to make a Strawberry Shortcake? I.E., how long to cook it, at what temperature, should it be preheated...

Also, a recipe for strawberry goo (that red thickish strawberry-tasting sugary gooey stuff) and powdered sugar would be helpful! Thanks!

Old-Fashioned Strawberry Shortcake

* Biscuits:
* 2 cups all-purpose flour
* 1 tablespoon baking powder
* 1/2 teaspoon salt
* 3 tablespoons sugar
* 1 stick butter, chilled
* 2/3 to 3/4 cup half and half, milk, or cream

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Set rack at center level.

In a food processor (you can use a pastry cutter or fingertips) combine the flour, baking powder, salt and sugar and pulse to mix. Cut butter into about 8 pieces and add to the mixture. Pulse until the mixture resembles coarse meal, but with few pea-size chunks of butter left in the mixture. Transfer the mixture to a large bowl and make a well in the center. With a fork stir in the cream or milk, just until dough is moist. Be very careful not to overwork. The dough doesn't have to hold together well at this point. Let the dough stand for a minute. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Fold the dough over on itself (knead) 2 or 3 times, until it is holding together and is less sticky.

Gently pat the dough into a 6 by 12-inch rectangle about 3/4-inch thick and cut into 8 (3-inch) biscuits with a floured round cutter. Transfer to a buttered foil-lined cookie sheet. Brush on a little milk or cream and sprinkle tops with some sugar, if desired. Bake for 10 to 15 minutes, until risen and golden brown. Remove to a platter and split each biscuit horizontally with a serrated knife. Butter the hot buscuits then top with about 1/3 cup of berry mixture. Replace the tops and top with a tablespoon or so of berries. Serve with whipped cream for topping.
Serves 8.

* Filling:
* 1 quart strawberries
* 1/3 cup sugar
* .
* 1 1/2 cups whipping cream for topping, or non-dairy whipped topping

Rinse the berries under cold water; drain well. Hull and slice the berries; place in a bowl. Sprinkle with the sugar; cover and let stand at room temperature for about 1 hour. Whip the cream (sweeten with 2 or 3 tablespoons of sugar, if desired) until it holds a soft peak. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.

What we all wouldn't give to hang onto youth. Funny thing is, it's not nearly as difficult as you might think. What would you say if I said it was all in your food? You can boost your own youth hormones for looking younger by following these tips.

When they told you to put down that "strawberry shortcake" and eat the strawberries fresh from the garden. It's not just because you'll put on a few pounds. Your strawberry shortcake could be aging you. That's because it has what's called a high glycemic index. This index is used to measure how fast the food you consume raises your blood sugar level and then how fast those blood sugar levels return to normal.

Low glycemic foods like fresh strawberries or any other fresh fruits and vegetables are good for us. That also includes whole grains. According to Dr. Giampapa, an antiaging specialist, these types so foods encourage youthful levels of hGH and IGF-1

When our blood sugar levels rise slowly and evenly it helps to keep steady insulin levels, then our bodies will produce less of the stress hormone cortisol. Dr. Giampapa says that these low levels of cortisol encourage our bodies to produce DHEA and the hormones that make DHEA.

On the opposite end of the scale is high glycemic foods like white potatoes, cornflakes, and strawberry shortcake. These foods triggers high levels of insulin and thus high levels of cortisol, which reduce the DHEA output.

Dr. Giampapa says that if you eat foods with a low to medium glycemic index you can avoid these insulin spikes that steal youth. Since we all want to keep your hormones optimized so that we stay more youthful, what foods would fit the suggested glycemic index.

Foods high in fiber are low glycemic foods and so hare complex carbohydrates. Stick to heavy breads the better for the lower the glycemic index and white bread should be avoided at all costs. Fresh fruits and vegetables, yams, and all types of beans.

Avoid processed foods, and foods high in saturated fats because they will stitch of your product of IGF-1, hGH, and DHEA. Your total daily calories should be no more than 10% from saturated fats. Replace saturated fats with monosaturated fats, which include nuts, olive oil, and avocados to name just a few sources.

For many years now, dieticians have been telling us how important eating right is to avoid many of the age related diseases that have become epidemic in our modern day society, including heart disease.

So if you want to stay looking and feeling younger, and you want to get the most out of your diet, check the glycemic index before you put it in your mouth. Avoid foods that have a high glycemic value. Now that you know what you need to do, it's time to start watching what you put in your mouth and keep those youthful looks longer.
