We have made wineberry, blackberry, and wild black cherry jam. Then we put up 2 different mint jellies. Next will be elderberry and rosehip jellies. SOme berry syrups, too. All made from wild forag...
Botanically, sumac is related to cashews. In the Northeast, we can find staghorn, smooth, and dwarf sumac. The berries are best picked after a dry period, as the rain will wash away the acsorbic ac...
I do not know what is in that photo, but it is definitely NOT a huckleberry. As for saying there are "many seeds", there are exactly 10 seeds in each huckleberry, and they are are technically nutle...
Bay leaves seem to work fantastically for us. Keep in mind that those pheremone sticky moth traps will only attract the male moths. A deep and complete clean is needed to get them all out of the ho...
Our all time favorite travel food is biscuits. Sometimes cheesy biscuits, sometimes with chopped scallions inside. Then we add sliced tart apples, smoked mozzarella cheese, and gulyas cream- a Hung...

Mutsu aka. Crispin, lovely crisp tartness, fantastic for drying in the dehaydrator. Russets, ugly but very very crisp and firm, tart. Loved the Gingergolds, but the season was early, and already over!

Matcha, my husband has cases of this stuff shipped from Hungary he loves id so much. Gulaskreme? It is mostly peppers with some oil and spices. He also gets mayo in a tube, and just started orderin...
Professionally I have always used Trablit coffee extract for pastries and baking. It is a French extract, and I have only seen it distributed by foodservice distributors. At home I use strongly bre...
A fantastic recipe, but I always used hot brewed coffee in place of the hot water and sour milk or buttermilk in place of regular milk. This gives a deeper chocolate flavor. And I am glad it was me...

I initially thought the snail was a whale. Cute, love the squirrel.
