The Prospector's Homemade Cheddar Biscuit Recipe From Disney

The Prospector's Homemade Cheddar Biscuits

I finally had the chance to try the Roundup Rodeo BBQ in Toy Story Land in January. The food was really good and I loved the decor. My favorite part was the biscuits. They are absolutely delicious! Disney recently shared the recipe for these biscuits to celebrate the one year anniversary of the restaurant. I can't wait to make them!

The Prospector's Homemade Cheddar Biscuits With Sweet Pepper Jelly - Roundup Rodeo BBQ, Hollywood Studios

Makes 12 Biscuits

Sweet Pepper Jelly
3 large red bell peppers, diced
1/2 cup diced Spanish onion
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1/2 cup white vinegar
1 cup sugar, divided 
1/2 teaspoon coarse salt
2 teaspoons pectin

Purée red bell pepper and onion in food processor until smooth. Bring puréed pepper mix, red pepper flakes, vinegar, 3/4 cup sugar, and salt to boil in medium saucepan. Reduce heat to simmer and continue simmering, stirring occasionally with rubber spatula, for 10-15 minutes, until reduced by slightly less than 1/3. 

Combine pectin and remaining 1/4 cup sugar in small bowl. Add to simmering pepper mix. Stir constantly for 5 minutes until jelly thickens.  Pour into heatproof bowl to cool. Cool at room temperature for 30 minutes. Cover, and refrigerate until ready to use.

Pepper jelly can made ahead and stored in the refrigerator up to 7 days. 

Cheddar Biscuits
1 cup unsalted butter, frozen
1 1/2 cups bread flour
1 1/2 cups cake flour
3 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons baking powder
1 teaspoon coarse salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 1/3 cups buttermilk 
2 cups shredded yellow cheddar cheese 
1/2 cup clarified butter, warmed
Sea salt, to taste 

Preheat oven to 375°F. Line baking sheet with parchment and set aside. 

Grate frozen butter using a food processor with shredding disk or cheese grater. Set aside. Whisk bread flour, cake flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and baking soda in large mixing bowl. Add frozen shredded butter and whisk until butter is evenly distributed. Add buttermilk and shredded cheese and stir with spoon until soft dough forms. 

Transfer dough to a floured surface and roll into 1/2-inch thick rectangle. Fold dough into thirds and roll to flatten slightly. Repeat 3 times. Roll dough to 1/2-inch thickness. Cut into 3-inch squares. Place on prepared baking pan. 

Bake for 14-15 minutes, until tops are golden and the bottom of the biscuits begin to brown. 
Remove from oven and brush with warm clarified butter and sprinkle desired amount of sea salt on top.

Cobb Salad Recipe From Disney

Hollywood Brown Derby Restaurant
Disney

I love salads in the summer. They're so refreshing when it's hot out, and boy, has it been hot out! This recipe for the Cobb Salad from the Hollywood Brown Derby in Hollywood Studios is based on the recipe created by the owner of the original Brown Derby in California, Robert Cobb. It's absolutely delicious!

The Hollywood Brown Derby Cobb Salad
The Hollywood Brown Derby at Hollywood Studios
Serves 4 to 6

Old-Fashioned French Dressing
2 Tbsp water
2 Tbsp red wine vinegar
1 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
1/2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
1/2 tsp salt, or to taste
1/2 tsp minced garlic
1/4 tsp sugar
1/8 tsp freshly ground pepper, or to taste
1/8 tsp dry English mustard
1/3 cup vegetable oil
2 Tbsp olive oil

Whisk together water, red wine vinegar, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, salt, garlic, sugar, freshly ground pepper, and dry mustard in
small bowl until well blended.

Whisking constantly, add the vegetable oil and olive oil in slow steady stream until the dressing is emulsified.

Store covered and chilled until ready to serve. Whisk dressing to blend just before serving.

Salad
1 cup finely chopped iceberg lettuce leaves
1 cup finely chopped chicory leaves
1 cup finely chopped tender sprigs watercress, plus additional sprigs for garnish
1 pound poached turkey breast, finely chopped
2 medium-size ripe tomatoes, seeded and finely chopped
1 avocado, peeled, seeded, and finely chopped
1/2 cup crumbled blue cheese
6 bacon slices, cooked crisp, drained, and crumbled
3 hard-boiled eggs, peeled and finely chopped
2 Tbsp snipped fresh chives
1/2 cup Old-fashioned French Dressing

Toss iceberg lettuce, chicory, and watercress together and arrange in a salad bowl. In straight and separate lines, arrange turkey, tomatoes, avocado, blue cheese, bacon, and eggs on top of greens. Sprinkle the chives in two diagonal lines across the salad.

To serve, present the salad at the table, toss with the dressing, and place on chilled plates with watercress sprigs as garnish.
