Southern Red velvet CakeCAKE:Vegetable oil for the pans2 ½ cups all-purpose flour1 ½ cups sugar1 teaspoon baking soda1 teaspoon fine salt1 teaspoon cocoa powder1 ½ cups vegetable oil1 cup buttermilk, at room temperature2 large eggs, at room temperature2 tablespoons red food coloring (1 ounce)1 teaspoon white distilled vinegar1 teaspoon vanilla extractCrushed pecans, for garnish Directions:Preheat the oven to 350º F. Lightly oil and flour 3 (9 by 1 ½ inch round) cake pans.

In a large bowl, sift together the flour, sugar, baking soda, salt and cocoa powder. In another large bowl, whisk together the oil, buttermilk, eggs, food coloring, vinegar, and vanilla.

Using a stand mixer, mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined and a smooth batter is formed.

Divide the cake batter evenly among the prepared cake pans. Place the pans in the oven evenly spaced apart. Bake, rotating the pans halfway through the cooking, until the cake pulls away from the side of the pans, and a toothpick inserted in the center of the cakes comes out clean, about 30 minutes.

Remove the cakes from the oven and run a knife around the edges to loosen them from the sides of the pans. One at a time, invert the cakes onto a plate and then re-invert them onto a cooling rack, rounded-sides up. Let cool completely.

Frost the cake. Place 1 layer, rounded side down, in the middle of a rotating stand. Using a palette knife or offset spatula spread some of the cream cheese frosting over the top of the cake. (Spread enough frosting to make a ¼ to ½ inch layer.) Carefully set another layer on top, rounded side down, and repeat. Top with the remaining layer and cover the entire cake with the remaining frosting. Sprinkle the top with pecans.

CREAM CHEESE FROSTING:1 pound cream cheese, softened4 cups sifted confectioners’ sugar2 sticks unsalted butter (1 cup), softened1 teaspoon vanilla extract In a standing mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, or with a hand-held electric mixer in a large bowl, mix the cream cheese, sugar and butter on low speed until incorporated. Increase the speed to high, and mix until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. (Occasionally turn the mixer off, and scrape the sides of the bowl down with a rubber spatula)

Reduce the speed of the mixer to low. Add the vanilla, raise the speed to high and mix briefly until fluffy (scrape down the bowl occasionally). Store in the refrigerator until somewhat stiff, before using. May be stored in the refrigerator for 3 days. Trophy - Cake ServerSponsor - home Arts Committee

In a large mixing bowl, sift together the flour, salt and sugar. Add the shortening and break it up with your hands as you start to coat it all up with the flour. Add the cold butter cubes and work it into the flour with your hands or a pastry cutter. Work it quickly, so the butter doesn’t get too soft, until the mixture is crumbly, like very course cornmeal. Add the ice water, a little at a time, until the mixture comes together forming a dough. Bring the dough together into a ball.

When it comes together stop working it, otherwise the dough will get overworked and tough. Divide the dough in half and flatten it slightly to worm a disk shape. Wrap each disk in plastic and chill in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes. On a floured surface roll each disk out into a 10 to 11-inch circle to make a 9-inch pie.

Filling:1 cup packed dark brown sugar1 cup light corn syrup6 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into pieces1 tablespoon flaky sea salt, plus more for garnish3 large eggs, lightly beaten2 cups chopped pecans

Preheat the oven to 350ºF.

Add the brown sugar, corn syrup, butter and salt to a medium saucepan. Place over medium heat and stir while the mixture melts. Bring to a boil. Remove from the heat and cool. Whisk in the eggs and the pecans. Add to the pie shell on the baking sheet and bake for 50 minutes. Cool completely before serving. Trophy - pie Server Sponsor - home Arts Committee

Ingredients:1 tablespoon active dry yeast2 ¾ cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting1 tablespoon sugar1 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more for sprinklingVegetable oil, for the bowlCooking spray1/3 cup baking soda

Put 1 cup warm water (110º F to 115º F) in the bowl of a stand mixer and sprinkle the yeast on top. Set aside to bloom, 5 minutes. Meanwhile, combine the flour, sugar and salt in a large bowl.

Add the flour mixture to the yeast mixture and mix with the dough hook on the lowest setting until the dough comes together. Increase the speed to medium and continue to mix until the dough is elastic and smooth, about 8 minutes.

From the dough into a ball, place in a large oiled bowl and turn the dough to coat it with oil. Cover with a damp kitchen towel and let rest in a warm place until doubled in size, 30 to 35 minutes. line a baking sheet with foil or a silicone baking mat, coat generously with cooking spray and set aside.

Punch the dough down, then turn out onto a floured surface. Knead just until the dough is smooth and springs back when poked, about 1 minute. Divide into 4 pieces and form into 5x3-inch oblong rolls. Place the rolls on the prepared baking sheet and cut four 2-inch diagonal slashes across the top of each. Cover with a damp towel or cover loosely with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place until almost doubled in size, 15 to 20 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 425ºF and bring 8 cups of water to a boil in a large saucepan over high heat.

Stir the baking soda into the boiling water (it will foam up slightly). Add 2 rolls and poach 2 minutes per side. Using a slotted spoon, remove the rolls, drain and place pn the baking sheet, cut side up. Sprinkle with salt. Repeat with the remaining rolls.

Bake the rolls until golden, 12 to 15 minutes. let cool slightly on the baking sheet.

Fairgrounds At harvest Ridge Goes Into excavation PhaseBy nick Sabo

The fairgrounds at Harvest Ridge is moving into the excavation phase, shaping the rolling terrain of the old Shreiner Farm for its new life as a multipurpose events facility.

Some 600,000 cubic yards of dirt will be moved as Harvest Ridge takes shape, laying the footprint for animal barns, a grandstand, exposition center, sale barn and horse arena. The lay of the land will be worked to make way for parking and overnight RV camping.

At the center of Harvest Ridge is the restored Shreiner barn, an 100-year-old structure that sits adjacent to the William T. Baker Family Building built last year. The detailed restoration included fixing the barn’s twin cupolas, a feature that is to be emulated on all future buildings.

The finished barn and the farm’s topography are emblematic of Holmes County’s agricultural history. Farmers who settled the area took on the rugged foothills of the Appalachian Mountains

and farm life follows those same hills today. Then as today, the barn stands at the center of the farm.

The Baker Building and barn are the first of what will be many structures that will make up the finished fairgrounds. Together, the two buildings measure more than 12,000 square feet, the first permanent structures of an estimated 149,000 square feet once all the animal barns and

the expo

center are constructed.Before those buildings can

go in, however, the land must be shaped to accommodate their construction. That work is scheduled for this year.

The fairgrounds relocation is on a tight schedule, with the first fair to be held at Harvest Ridge in 2015. What that fair will look like remains to be seen. The total project for Harvest Ridge is estimated at $10 million. To put on a fair in temporary structures with

project judging and the annual livestock sale, food vendors and entertainment, will cost around $5 million.

As things stand now, the 2015 fair will likely be held in in a limited number of buildings on the new grounds. The roads and paths may be gravel, rather than blacktop.

Holmes County Fairboard President Kerry Taylor said the project has already taken years of hard work and will take many more. Along with local donations, the fairboard

has received

grants, the most important of which allowed for purchase of the Shreiner property, and they will continue to seek them.

The project thus far has been guided by much hard work and the generosity of the community. The Baker Building was built with a donation from local businessman Bill Baker. The barn restoration was made possible by a donation from Arlie and Evelyn Rodhe.

Looking back at what has been accomplished so

far, Taylor knows that the final vision of the finished fairgrounds will become reality.

“Over the eight years of this project, to get to the point the fairboard is at today, there have been many leaps of faith,” Taylor said. “In our journey to relocate the fair, it continues to require leaps of faith. With the support of the community that we have seen in the past, we will continue to do so until the project is complete.”

It will take an estimated $10 million to complete Harvest Ridge’s fairground and exhibit hall. To put on a fair in

temporary structures connected to water and electric utilities will cost $5 million. By helping make Harvest Ridge a reality,

your pledge today will be appreciated for years to come.
