It’s like calling water wine.

What is?

Calling decaf coffee I believe.

I don't make beef jerky, but I love Emeril's Rustic Rub on a lot of things. Good on beef, chicken, salmon, anything. When I put it on salmon, I often add a little brown sugar.

Emeril's Rustic Rub

8 tablespoons paprika
3 tablespoons cayenne
5 tablespoons freshly ground black pepper
6 tablespoons garlic powder
3 tablespoons onion powder
6 tablespoons salt
2 1/2 tablespoons dried oregano
2 1/2 tablespoons dried thyme

It has cayenne! I already love it! Thanks!!

I am so very sad that I lost my golden apple tree to fire blight.

I will try some honeycrisp apples for sure.

The squirrels keep stealing all our apricots.

The squirrels stole my banana apples! Which was ok THIS year because they were horribly wormy! I need to get the fallen leaves cleaned up and do a dormant spray I suppose, never had so many infested apples.

Just found this recipe for Bacon Jam at the King Arthur Flour site. Has anyone canned bacon jam? Hot bath or pressure cooker?

I love bacon, and heard that there is supposed to be a way to can it by itself!

Really?? I wonder what kind of texture it would have. Do you think it would be like the store-bought stuff? It would be nice to have around to add to things like soups or salads, but let's face it ... nothing beats a nice piece of bacon fresh out of the skillet.

I love making homemade bread, but I've never frozen yeast bread dough. Do you shape the dough before freezing or just freeze the dough, thaw, raise, then bake? In other words, what do you do when you freeze it? I think my DH will like having bread dough in the freezer alongside our homemade pizza dough.

I freeze my bread both yeast and sourdough

I find it easier to slice when partially frozen. A really good sharp heavy in life works well for me too.

Most definatlely mine was partially frozen when I cut it .... And it was uneven but came out fine.
