Pickled Asparagus Recipe
Comments (13)Thanks Lin and Dig; I suspect my recipe may be OK, but the finishing method is not. Here goes: 2 1/2 Cup Vinegar 2 1/2 Cug Water 2 1/2 Teaspoon Salt 2 Tablespoon Sugar Dash each, Nutmeg, Tumeric, Dill seed. (I substituted these for pickling spice, I didn't have any) Several cloves Garlic Whole Black Peppercorns This makes enough for 3-4 pints. The recipe says to blanch gus for 1 minute and plunge into cold water. Pack into jars with a garlic clove, peppercorn and some red pepper flakes. BWB for 10 mins, wait at least 3 weeks and enjoy. The pepper flakes are dried from my garden. I would like to add sliced onion or other ingredients (hot peppers) as they are available. This is really quite good, but I am afraid to supply to anyone. HELP! Can I safely substitute the pickling spices, I find the mixtures available here to be too strong. And I can buy pepper flakes, but would rather use my own. That way I can regulate the heat of the pickles. Do I need to wait longer than 3 weeks, or do I need to wait that long at all? Since asparagus grows so quickly I put in just stems to fill a jar. It tastes just as good, but is not as pretty, is that OK? Thanks for all the tips, Rock....See MoreNeed an easy chili recipe
Comments (24)Mexican chili powder is ground chilies and nothing else, but then in Mexico chile is made with whole dried chilies that are toasted and the rehydrated or else fresh green chilies. Also, cumin is not a required ingredient for chile in Mexico, although it is sometimes added in Texas, but not always. In Texas, chili is basically beef plus chilies and tends to be hotter than chile in Mexico. What passes for chili powder in the U.S. is pretty nasty to me, but that's just my particular preference, probably because of what I've had in Mexico and Texas made with fresh chilies or dried chilies. True Texas chili does not have beans either. McCormick brand chili powder is one of the worst, but you can buy Ancho chili powder from Penzeys, and it will be unadulterated. Diana Kennedy has some good recipes for Mexican chile. Chile that is made with fresh green chilies pretty much never has cumin in it. I have at least five Mexican cookbooks that I use on a regular basis, including one from Fonda San Miguel in Austin that my sister gave me for my birthday, autographed by the authors. I recently bought Pati Jinich's Mexican Table. I also always have chili sauces in my refrigerator that I make myself and they never have cumin in them. It is more common to find cumin in adobo sauce. I make a bean dip with cumin in it, but you will not find that in Mexico....See MoreHelp me make a better burger
Comments (45)I could not open the JamieOliver link at first. Could not find the 'x' to cut the crap covering the recipe. (he used to have a paywall so I gave up rather quickly) Leeks, fresh herbs, cornishons, dijon. On the list of the most expensive items in our markets. More expensive than mince. Most of the US is a month from garden herbs. (snowing here this morning) Sounds good though!. Meat loaf, meat balls, mince pies, can be 'stretched' with cheaper veg like carrots, onion, potato, oatmeal, stale breadcrumbs. etc....See MoreShortages To Expect In 2021
Comments (75)I hear about something new on the list every day it seams. Most delayed products are about the supply chain for containers. Sometimes labeling. Bread yeast again. The brown containers for Fleischmann's. (nutritional yeast for a bit when non-bakers were buying it thinking it was for bread, 😂) Educational hobby items, and outdoor/indoor activity toys....fish tanks and bicycles. Chicken incubators, sewing machines. Seeds are hit and miss. I just need carrots and a few salad varieties. And a specific hot pepper I'm out of. Some suppliers I use have seed but keep shutting down for ordering being so backed up with minimal staff. A local CSA is doubling their gardens this season. That might be common nationwide. That is a good thing. More local support....See More- 17 years ago
