past the "Best By Date" ?
Comments (7)The canned goods would not bother me if stored in my pantry. If they were in a hot garage all summer, i would get a fresh one. If cans get hit by hot temps or freezing temps, it might be ok but it changes the taste, so that would be a doubt. 'Best by' dates are used for shelf stocking stores and a date a manufacturer decides when it still maintains a consistently good flavor. I've noticed canned goods in some small specialty stores with dates near 10yrs old. A bottle of seltzer 2005. Not dangerous, just not good and 'fresh'. Unopened bottles and cans are fine after the dates, especially 2013. More a personal choice. If for a holiday meal, fresh is a better choice. Or my choice anyway. Buttermilk, dairy, eggs...i don't use past the 'use by' dates usually, but have consumed a week or two late, by accident, and was fine, tasted fine. (out of town, didn't notice). If stored in a good cold fridge, things do last longer. If a teen tends to leave it open, and it is stuffed without much cool air circulation, you might not make it to the use-by date. Dairy is tested by the producers so you are getting a decent suggested date. Cans could last safe for consumption for years. I use some of the sites like Grainlady posted when in doubt....See MoreCake Recipe - Sometimes It Works
Comments (7)I found an article about cake ratios that might help. http://www.finecooking.com/articles/ratios-for-great-cakes.aspx Edit to add: What type of baking powder are you using? And do you always get the cake batter into a preheated oven directly after mixing? Some baking powders (usually single-acting) start to work as soon as they're moistened. Double-acting baking powders activate with both moisture and heat. I like to use Argo baking powder--double acting but no aluminum. Some baking powders leave a metallic taste in my mouth. Not every one is sensitive to this taste....See MoreWhite Lily Flour Self Rising Flour Biscuits
Comments (28)If you can get King Arthur flour, that works better than anything else. Buttermilk Biscuits 2 1/2 cups self rising flour (I use King Arthur) 1 teaspoon sugar 1/2 cup PLAIN Crisco (not butter) 1 cup whole milk buttermilk Preheat oven to 425*. Cut Crisco into flour with a pastry cutter or fork until well mixed. Add buttermilk and stir. Turn out onto floured surface and pat out, turn in half, flip, pat out, and turn bottom half over. Pat out and cut with biscuit cutter. Place in pan sprayed with Pam. Reform leftover dough and cut rest of biscuits. I form the last biscuit by hand. You can do them all by hand if no cutter. Bake about 10 to 15 minutes. 1. You can cut recipe in half. You can also take out of oven after they are just done, but not brown, and freeze after they are cool. 2. To use regular flour, 2 1/2 cup plain flour, 2 tablespoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon salt. 3. We like to butter our biscuits after they are cooked and do not like butter in the dough. If you want butter in the dough, use 1/2 cup unsalted butter, omit Crisco. 4. The lard you get in the grocery stores now is not the same as old fashioned lard. If you have a source for real fresh lard, you can use 1/2 cup lard instead of Crisco or butter. 5. Keep your hands well floured and also dust a small amount on top of dough and under dough as you turn. Keep a light hand, you are not kneading yeast dough. Dust the cutter with flour, also. The first biscuits after I got married in 1970, you could of used for hockey pucks, lol. He ate them anyway!...See MoreWhat would you do with leftover buttermilk?
Comments (39)If my dad were here, alive and nearby I'd just give it to him to drink. He loved it. I can't imagine drinking it, although, I do now like Greek yogurt and bleu cheese where when I was younger I didn't. I ended up making Zalco's summer cake. Thank you for the recipe! I did cut down on the sugar a little bit. My exchange student ate two huge pieces of it, which is good because no way could I finish it all off myself. He leaves in two days so I'm taking a couple slices to my daughter tomorrow. I'll probably freeze the rest of the buttermilk to make something else later, like some fried chicken wings. Thanks for all the suggestions....See Morecloudy_christine
