I love to re-visit the old kitchen arts, I.E.- Making sausage, cheese, wine, pickles, Jellies, and all the stuff people these days are too lazy to do. I get a kick out of it, and have MASTERED bread!!
My favorite things to cook
I love to re-visit the old kitchen arts, I.E.- Making sausage, cheese, wine, pickles, Jellies, and all the stuff people these days are too lazy to do. I get a kick out of it, and have MASTERED bread!! I really love getting deals on ripe produce and pickling and canning "on the cheap"!!
My favorite family cooking traditions
Scottish trifle Shortbread at Thanksgiving,Christmas, Easter.
My cooking triumphs
Teaching myself to cook a beef heart and have it come out better than deli roast beef !! Learning to bake bread without a recipe! Perfect Pitas better than the store... recipe from this site (peppys pita)pictured above.
My cooking tragedies
My friends cat jumped up on the sink and ate the breast out of our Thanksgiving turkey while it was thawing in a coldwater bath. We woke up to a half eaten turkey Thanksgiving morning and all the stores were closed in the small town we were in!
