Comments (38)Mine are doing great the 3 gal one has been putting out new blossoms like crazy the 1 gal still has none but I am hoping it will look at the 3 gal and feel bad so it will start :) As the little lemons are getting biger I can really see the stripes. One question is this a slow fruit to get big. The lemons on my "sweet lemon" are now bigger than golf balls karla...See MoreLOOKING for: Anyone made Lemon Rosemary Cake?
Comments (1)As Emily Litella used to say, "never mind" :) I posted this request over at Recipe Exchange and Ruthanna provided that fabulous marathon thread filled with lemon recipes which I found a lot more interesting than this recipe. I think I'm just going to make this cake w/o the rosemary....See MoreBeyond Vanilla---Exploring Extracts & Flavorings For a Dummy !
Comments (30)I've made Sarsaparilla tea that tasted like root beer but never made root beer. Like Bumblebeez, I tend to use liqueurs rather than extracts, and my favorites are Frangelico, Amaretto, Cointreau, Godiva Chocolate liqueur, and several versions of Kahlua, including Mocha (my favorite) and hazelnut. I really like Mocha Kahlua on ice cream but am almost out and am having trouble finding it again. I think they may make it only at Christmas and New Year's. The liqueurs are not as strong as extracts and work in a lot of drinks as well as recipes. I use them a lot with ice cream but also in other creme anglaise recipes such as Bavarian Cream. For extracts, I only have vanilla (Cook's brand, which is okay) and almond (brand unknown). I seldom use the almond extract since I generally substitute Amaretto instead. I've noticed that Indian markets sell a lot of extracts, but I have not used many of them yet, including several that I have in my pantry. Lars...See MoreMade a Meyer Lemon Curd!
Comments (11)Hey, thanks guys and gals! It is delicious with soft cookies, cake, ice cream, whipped cream, et cetera! Let me see if I can recreate the recipe here....and I'll edit if I missed anything when I find the recipe. 1/2 cup Meyer Lemon juice Zest of three Meyer Lemons 1.5 cups of sugar 1/4 pound Butter 1/8 teaspoon kosher salt 4 large eggs Eggs and butter need to be at room temperature. Use food processor to mix the lemon Zest and the sugar. Then, "cream" the butter and sugar/zest together. This is a forearm-intensive process where you smash and smooth the butter and sugar together. I used a wooden spoon, but a beater would probably be easier ;-) Add eggs one at a time, then the lemon juice, and then the salt. Mix very thoroughly so that the eggs are completely incorporated. If you don't, you'll have cooked egg white bits in your curd. Then, pour the mix into a pan on *low* heat - go slowly, stirring constantly. It can take from 10 - 20 minutes depending on the stove and how low your low setting is. The curd will thicken at 170F, so I used a candy thermometer to take readings every few minutes. At 170F, I pulled it, set on cooling rack, and then put in the 'fridge once it had cooled a bit. Josh...See MoreFun2BHere
