The maple syrup I have is labeled as "Grade A dark color with robust taste". When I've made Chewy Maple Cookies with it (also using the maple flavoring sold by KAF in place of the vanilla) the flavor is great. That is the cookie I always get compliments on. I also add some rolled oats to it to firm up the dough a little.
I made my usual semolina/rye/wheat sandwich buns yesterday topped with KAF Everything Bagel topping. While doing so, I noticed that some of my KAF baking supplies are low and I just missed out on a free shipping offer. But, I know those offers are like busses, if you wait long enough another one will come along. If I recall, they usually have an offer around Valentines Day, I can wait that long.
I knew this one! Although most people still refer to it as a fifth, the liquor industry (distilled spirits) went metric in the late 70's (if I recall correctly), what we are getting now is a 750 ml. 750 ml is real close to a fifth, about 25.4 ounces v 25.6. Not much difference to the consumer but I imagine it amounts to many extra bottles for the producers. Also, what used to be a quart is now a liter, which is slightly larger than a quart.
I made Chicken Thigh Fricassee and had it with rice and peas.
I got it too. Raw fish or seafood should only be used as bait to catch bigger fish.
Joan, I think it's often used in sushi. My feelings on sushi is, well, see my post about bait. 🙂
I had chicken veggie soup and a burger.
Yesterday I made stuffed shells and had it with leftover pork roast.
Tonight I'm going to have rotisserie chicken, left over whipped sweet potato and red cabbage.
For breakfast I made blueberry compote and pancakes. I make my compote in a way that most of the berries remain whole. I take about 25% of them in a pan with a little sugar and a tablespoon of water, after it heats up a little I mash them as best I can and let them simmer for a couple of minutes, then I fold in the remaining berries and heat them through, a slow simmer for a minute and then that's it. And a splash of fresh lemon juice.
I missed it but I follow the method I saw on Martha Stewart some years ago. You put the eggs in the pan with cold water, about 1 inch over the eggs, bring it to a boil and then remove it from the heat and cover it. Hard cooked takes 13 minutes but I don't remember the times for medium or soft. Also, I am not interested in any boiled egg that isn't well done, undercooked egg whites are not compatible with me. The advantage is the whites will be tender and never rubbery and there will never be a green hue on the outside of the yolk.
Yesterday I made a small pork roast. Tonight I had a pork roast sandwich and whipped sweet potato.
Just the usual, I made sandwich buns this afternoon, they were done just in time for dinner.
Save yourself some time and put "baking chips" in the search bar.
Mike, it looks like the chips on the Hershey site are the same chips on Amazon. The prices are similar, although not exactly the same. I don't know if Hershey charges for shipping but the chips are free shipping on Amazon for Prime members. Of course, there are other nifty things on the Hershey site that you might not find elsewhere. And you probably don't have to worry about freshness if you buy them from Hershey.
I prepared chicken meatballs (pre made, frozen), made sauce from canned San Marzano tomatoes. Had it with Ziti.
I hope you guys enjoyed yourselves, Mike. My neighbors sister lives in Hawaii and she comes over here for about 3 weeks every winter because she misses getting cold.
I had rotisserie chicken, I made whipped sweet potato and Brussels sprouts.
I really hadn't heard of it either but got it by elimination.
I had never heard of that family before but was able to figure it out.
