Recipe | Description |
---|
Blueberries for muffins | First frozen, then dehydrated, then frozen for storage. |
Canning notes | Peaches, pears and applesauce especially. |
Cranberry Sauce | Sugar and cranberries macerated overnight and lightly boiled make an intensely cranberry compote. Also the option to use honey and NO sugar! |
Dehydration Notes | Don't forget to keep the dehydrator working. |
Fat - Tallow or Lard | Beef fat! Beautifully rendered into a shelf stable semi-solid. And Pig fat even more precious. |
Fermentation for Veggies | The beginning of my lactofermenting! Pickles take just a few days on the counter then a week in the fridge and they are ever so good, and healthy! |
Fermented Green Chile Salsa | Makes 2 quarts. This Green Chile Salsa acts like a base; not only is it a delicious green salsa as is, but it’s more—you will have ready-made flavor to keep on hand to add to many dishes.
Try a few tablespoons in sour cream for a dip, with mashed avocado for a guacamole, or dump the already-prepared chiles, veggies and spices into the pot like a seasoning packet (with ingredients you can pronounce). |

Jam or Compote - Macerated | Very simple yet intense fresh taste with time and just a little boiling. |
Mexican Red Cooking Sauce | Made from fresh tomatoes roasted until sweet and a combination of freshly made chili powder and fresh peppers. I use it as a salsa, for huevos rancheros, and mexican casseroles. |
Peppers | Such beautiful colors! Don't forget to rejoice in their beauty alone. |
Pineapple | |
Play dough | from Mountain Rose Herbs |
