Vegetarian recipes with fresh Dill?

animal or fish protein of any kind) recipes that call for fresh dill? I have a
lot of it, and don't want it to go to waste. Thank you!

Trellis cookbook. There's nothing special about the recipe -- just add some
chopped-up dill to the dough.
My goodness, I thought you were dead.

Potato salad with sour cream/yogurt dressing with lots of dill. In
general you can make a good dip or salad dressing with it and some yogurt
or sour cream, a little garlic, lemon juice and other herbs.
You could add it to pesto sorts of sauces. I'll bet dill and walnuts with
maybe a little parsley would make a great pesto, very tasty on a fresh
spring pasta dish.
Dill is also great in the garden for attracting aphids away from
everything else.

The suggestion sounds good, but it won't fit the vegan diet. It violates
the stricture: "no animal or fish protein of any kind".

A favorite summer salad of mine is: thinly sliced cucumbers, dressed with
rice vinegar and lots of chopped fresh dill. Add pinches of sugar, salt
and pepper to taste.
Cheers,
Debbie (who can't wait for her little cucumber sprouts to start producing!)

I do know better. Sorry about that. Pesto doesn't require dairy though.
Just make a paste of olive oil, a little lemon juice, garlic, dill and
parsley. You could use it to zip up sandwiches, toss with pasta (eggless
varieties) or as a dip for vegies.
I think you could do a vinagrette salad dressing for potato salad with
lots of dill in it that would be very good. A coworker made a spinach
sauced potato salad for a party recently. Whole new potatoes with an
uncooked spinach and other stuff puree. I'm not sure what all was in it,
but it was good, and I'm sure dill would have been good in it as well.

The point is that one does not post in a vacuum. A thread may start out about
one thing and end up being about another. One hopes of course, that in the
course of this Usenet phenomena of entropy at its finest, the instigator of
the thread gets something useful out of it, however, that may not always be
the case. One certainly has a right to expect the post to be on topic for the
ng, as it was. Such is Usenet. If you don't like it, go read a cookbook. In
this case, a vegan one.
Here is a favorite recipe that involves lots of dill, and the dairy can be
left out very easily to make it vegan. It is a repeat of a post I made on
10/01/1999.
begin paste:
Here's a recipe you might like then. It has lots and lots of onions, which
may be good if you're an older woman, a little lycopene containing
tomato, which is definitely good if you're an older man, and tons of spinach,
which is good for anyone. We have been eating this about once
a month, mostly because it tastes so good. It's from Paula Wolfert's
_Mediterranean Grains and Greens_, a really great cookbook. Every
single thing I've cooked from it we enjoyed. I must admit that we often make
this with a nice aged basmati rice and eat it with curds (thick
yougurt). It's really nice this way too, but I'm not sure what it should be
called, certainly not Greek. If you do it that way, then you need an
extra 1/2 c of water added to the rice, and 5 minutes more initial cooking
time (before adding the spinach).
Greek Style Rice with Spinach, Feta and Black Olives
2 lbs fresh spinach, washed and tough stems removed
4 Tbs extra virgin olive oil
coarse sea salt
1/2 c thinly sliced scallions
3/4 c finely chopped onions or leeks
1/4 c fresh tomato puree reduced by boiling to 3 tablespoons
1/2 c long grain rice
1/4 c chopped dill
freshly ground black pepper
oily black olives for garnish
chunks of feta cheese or spoonfuls of thick yogurt for garnish
1. Wash the spinach and tender stems until the water runs clean; drain. If
leaves are large and crinkly, sprinkle lightly with salt and mix
well. Let stand in a colander 15 minutes; rinse and squeeze out excess
moisture. Shred the spinach to make about 3 cups.
2. Heat 3 Tbs of the olive oil in a 10-inch straight-sided skillet. Add the
scallions, onions, a pinch of salt ad 1/4 c water and cook, covered,
over medium-low heat for 10 minutes. When the water evaporates, slowly let
the onions turn golden, stirring occasionally. Add 1 cup water,
the reduced tomato puree and rice. Cover and cook for 10 minutes.
3. Spread the spinach and dill over the rice, cover and cook 10 minutes
longer. Remove formt heat, mix, then place a double thickness of
paper toweling over the rice, cover again, and let stand until cool. Adjust
the seasoning with black pepper and slat and drizzle with the
remaining tablespoon olive oil. Serve at room temperature garnished with
olives and feta cheese or yogurt.

You clearly missed the point. Of course usenet postings don't exist in
a vacuum. It was, however, appropriate to point out that dairy products
don't fit into a vegan diet when the *original* post specifically
requested *vegan* recipes. I pointed out the discrepancy because some
may not understand that a vegan equates dairy products as animal
protein. I am not a vegan, which makes it presumptive of you to infer
as much. I belong to PETA --- People for the Eating of Tasty Animals.

I was attempting to imply that if you expect a thread to remain on the
subtopic set out in the original post you are going to wind up frustrated. I
inferred nothing regarding your dietary habits. I eat animals on a regular
basis and own several vegetarian and one vegan cookbook that I cook out of.
The three are not mutually exclusive in an omnivore's world. Again, while the
original poster did in fact ask for vegan recipes, there is nothing at all
wrong or surprising that someone posted a vegetarian recipe in said thread.
It seems we are fated to disagree.

Personally, I thought the recipe sounded delicious--or should I say
DILLicious--and have printed it out to give it a try.

A while ago I posted a recipe for a Greek spinach and rice dish which uses big
handfuls of it. You can find it at deja.com.

Trillium,
What I am interpreting from your postings is that you believe I told
someone that they shouldn't have posted vegetarian recipes to a vegan
recipe request. I believe that my response was ADVISORY; I was trying
to inform someone what a vegan would view as animal protein. I never
said that anyone was wrong for doing so. And I will again state that I
think it is helpful, appropriate, and on-topic to advise someone that a
vegetarian recipe, containing dairy products, is not something that the
vegan poster would be able to use.

that this is not vegan, it can probably be adapted to be so (soy milk maybe?).
fresh dill is snipped into the soup along with buttermilk and salt and pepper.
in the end, i like to put a dollop of butter in the bowl before eating
(although this too is not vegan!)

Alright. As the person who was corrected by Dave, let me put in my beans
worth. He was polite, it seemed more advisory and I've often found it
annoying when people post recipe responses that don't meet the guidelines
posted.
In my own defence, I read the subject which said "vegetarian recipes" and
was thinking more about that, than the text within the message which said
"vegan/vegie recipes". I know, not much of a defense. Admittedly, seeing
vegie, makes me think vegetarian, not vegan.
...
Enough about that, last night I made something that probably could have
been improved with some dill, and didn't need it's little sprinkling of
cheese.
Saffron orzo (fresh from the farmer's market, you'd have to look around to
find a non-egg version).
diced leftover roasted potatoes and carrots sauteed with lots of garlic in
olive oil.
Toss the hot potatoes and pasta (also had some additional cubed carrots
which cooked with the orzo) with your choice of:
diced olives (spanish lemon stuffed ones)
roasted red peppers
cress (or other green, I'm not sure it added much, a bunch of parsley
chopped up and dill would have done just as well)
toasted nuts (I had some leftover toasted chopped up macadamia nuts, pine
nuts would be good too)
feta (optional, I used goat's milk feta from the farmer's market)
olive oil
fresh thyme
dried tarragon
dried basil
then a squeeze of lime juice on top. Besides the fact that this used up
many of my bits and pieces of leftovers in the fridge it was 30 minutes
between walking in the door and eating dinner even with interruptions from
3 dogs and 4 other people (that doesn't count the student who came to pick
up a bookcase we're getting rid of). Our house is a little extra crowded
these days.

Thanks for passing this on. For what it's worth, Trillium sent me a
very nice e-mail which was much appreciated.
