Okay I just experimented and made farmers cheese my first time.
From the amount of effort and time it takes it isn't worth the trouble if you have to buy the milk from the store. Here is what one gallon of milk will make. It tastes good just like the homemade spam but as I said not worth it in my opinion. If you had a milk cow yes. I have no idea what I am going to do with it and could have spent less money buying at the store. Worth IMG_20150904_29681.jpg IMG_20150904_44376.jpg IMG_20150904_5940.jpg IMG_20150904_14243.jpg |

First in this series of photos is some really meaty pork ribs curing with ice cream salt.
Next we have a butt roast all spiced up with sea salt and fresh ground black pepper. As you see it is being browned on all six sides. The fat side will be left up for final cooking in the cast iron kettle. In this kettle will be garlic powder chopped onion fresh rosemary and sweet Madeira. Nothing else and the lid put on and the stove set on medium low. Later it will get more onion and carrots and then a little later potatoes.

Some of you may know this and some may not.
A few years ago at my wife's Christmas party her snobby boss and his wife were bragging about going to cooking classes. They went on and on how they can now cut up an onion and potato better than anyone in the room. I said really how do you now do it? They told me and me being the smart ars I am said, you had to go to school to learn that. I have been doing it for years. She said well someone had to show you. You just cant figure this stuff out on your own. I then told her so you are calling me stupid. Have you ever heard of the term simultaneous invention? They said no. I told them it is when something like the wheel or writing is invented in different places with no input from either place to the other place. The wheel is proof of this. It was invented in Mexico and Europe or Asia with no influence from the other. So yes I did come up with it without any outside help. The crowd looked at them with that you have been schooled look on their faces. Here is what I came up with on my own. IMG_20150905_45615.jpg IMG_20150905_57118.jpg IMG_20150905_5909.jpg |

After reading where someone couldn't make biscuits I got worried I couldn't make them from scratch anymore.
Here they are no recipe butter biscuits. Made with flour butter salt powdered milk and baking powder. Worth IMG_20150906_33962.jpg IMG_20150906_4561.jpg IMG_20150906_5430.jpg |

What on earth do you do with four experimental biscuits?
Homemade sausage and gravy. Everything homemade from scratch. When I was 27 years old I won my sister in law's beauty shop biscuit cooking contest. With these biscuits. Worth IMG_20150906_26216.jpg |

In post 1027, I saw the 1938 German PO8 Parabellum, and thought, "Alright, I cooked you - if you start mooing ..."
Separate The okra in the foil packages from 09 have a high germination rate. I was just checking on the seeds I planted directly in-garden 5 days ago. I planted three seeds in 3 places. Each now has at least one plant coming up. |
