Do you have all the ingredients to make your own mix?
Comments (32)I use 511 regularly, where I work we provide machinery that focuses on cleaning grains, plastic extrusions, reclaimed sheet rock, reclaimed glass etc. we separate unwanted fines, or unwanted particle sizes from many various products via screening, air aspiration as well as other methods. This brings me to my question about gritty mix, I just happened upon some poly beads about 3/16 diameter, could this be used as the grit fraction in gritty mix? What I mean by grit is the the granite, or the inert fraction of the mix, the beads seem to be nearly inert, I process all my pine bark through a machine called a reel eliminator, it has various sizes of screens so I can dictate what particle size I want by varying the screen size, I always look for the bags of pine bark mulch that looks some what composted, and separate that into the fines I want, typical what ever will go through a 3/8 screen. I processed 4ea. 2.5 cubic bags in 10 minutes last week, sure makes it easy compared to my screens at home. I am wanting to make up some gritty mix primarily for some citrus trees in my greenhouse, these polystyrene beads have become plentiful and don't weigh very much. You guys are the experts and would love to hear your opinions, Thanks...See MoreDo you make your own Demi-Glace?
Comments (47)Thanks Chase, I'll sacrifice the shank slices I was going to use for soup and add them to the bones. I would think that three pounds of very meaty shank would be enough to add to six pounds of bones, is that OK? FOAS, in our main stream markets beef shank is $5.99 a pound so a real find at the Mexican supermarket for $2.69. Maybe I'll go back and look at their "soup bones" which were the odd shaped chunks. Our markets mark down meat too, but only by about 25%. The Mexican market is still my best choice. I looked at several videos, including a four part one from a cooking school with a huge kitchen and they all used clean bones, but I know that Chase has been making demi-glace for a long time and I trust her choices. In our house, there is no such thing as steak or roast bones with meat left on them and I think Max would know I was crazy if I asked him to give up chewing the bones.

Comments (27)Cookie8, I almost always end up rewriting recipes, so I can make them in the order I need to. (Starting with preheat the oven to...) The way some recipes are written, reading ahead is necessary, although not always an option. I find it makes the instructions much longer, which makes the recipe look more intimidating. The truth is, if I can follow it easily to the letter, I find my results are more successful. Sometimes, I'll rewrite a recipe several times before it's where I need it to be. You didn't really ask, but I always get out every ingredient, bowl, spatula measuring cup/spoons and mixer that I'm going to need before I even start. I measure it all, and set everything on a tray, so all I have to do is mix everything together. (If a recipe has multiple parts, I set up different trays.) That way, when you read through the recipe, it's all set up and easy to ''check off'' while you're baking. I hope you try again. Determination is a fine quality to possess! I have an easy one bowl chocolate cake recipe, if you need something to go to, that's tasty, easy and worthy of a birthday cake. I usually make it with a Cinnamon Buttercream Icing, and get requests for it often. Just let me know if you'd like the recipe. Deanna, I always use the recipe on the back of a bar of Bakers Sweet German Chocolate. It's no secret, but rather more time consuming to make as a cake, than anything else. It's our favorite as the buttermilk always makes it so moist, and it's a cake that only gets better with time. We always make it the day before, so the flavors have time to meld. It's also fun to anticipate eating it, when it looks so good sitting under a glass cake cover....See Morecroutons, do you make your own?
Comments (5)Do I make My own You betcha...for me and my daughter and friends.. We have a sunbeam day old store, colonial, and pepperidge farm here that sells bread cheap and daily specials. I stock up and put it in my freezer. I love my cinnamon raisin english muffins. But the bread for 50 cents a loat I buy and make croutons! Do I have the recipes...LOL Also, instead of using butter I have found if you use butter flavored spray it saves cooking time and the croutons are crispier. They have an olive oil spray also, but I use olive oil and do not substitue on that. Here are some of my recipes I found that I use and love. Basic Buttered Bread Croutons 4 cups bread cubes 1/2 cup butter, melted Preheat oven to 350F Place the bread cubes in a large bowl. Pour the melted butter over the bread cubes and toss to distribute the butter evenly. Now I like to put my melted butter in my oil sprayer and spray the bread crumbs while I toss them. Either way works though. Place the bread cubes in a single layer in a baking pan. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until lightly browned, stirring every 5 minutes for even toasting. Allow the croutons to cool completely, then store them in an airtight container. Freeze them for longer storage. Parmesan Croutons 4 cups Bread Cubes 4 Tbsp Olive Oil 1/2 tsp Oregano 1/2 tsp Salt 4 Tbsp Parmesan Cheese, finely shredded Preheat oven to 375°F. Toss cubed bread with olive oil. Bake until the croutons are a light golden brown. As soon as the croutons are removed from the oven, toss with oregano, cheese and a little salt. Cool completely and serve. You can also store in an airtight container or freeze until needed. Spicy Croutons 4 Tbsp Olive Oil 1 1/2 tsp chilli sauce 1 Tbsp Crushed Pepper Flakes 4 cups bread cubes (add more chilli if you want it hotter) Preheat oven to 350ºF Warm oil slightly on stove top in large pan. Add chilli sauce and flakes to oil, mix WELL. Add bread to mixture and toss to coat all the cubes. Transfer to baking sheet and cook in the oven for 15 - 20 minutes, stirring occasionally until golden brown. Cool completely and serve. You can also store in an airtight container or freeze until needed. Italian Croutons 2 tablespoons butter 2 tablespoon olive oil 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder 1/2 teaspoon onion powder 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano 1/4 teaspoon dried basil 1 pinch salt 4 cups bread cubes Preheat oven to 350ºF Warm oil and butter until melted on stove top in large pan. Add seasonings and mix well. Add bread to mixture and toss to coat all the cubes. Transfer to baking sheet and cook in the oven for 15 - 20 minutes, stirring occasionally until golden brown. Cool completely and serve. You can also store in an airtight container or freeze until needed. Parmesan Italian Croutons 4 cups bread cubes (great with french bread or homemade bread) Toss bread in mixture of 4 Tbsp Butter, melted 3 Garlic Cloves, finely minced 2 Tbsp dried basil 2 Tbsp dried thyme 2 Tbsp Parmesan, grated Preheat oven to 350ºF Warm butter until melted on stove top in large pan.
