The Old Folks Home

With brining turkeys, you can run into the problem of getting a turkey that is already injected with salt and stock. Most in the stores are. Getting one that it natural and not injected works best

Not that bird, pasture raised at a local farm. All natural. Clearly it was *I* who introduced the excess salt.

Any egg will spin on its side, only a hard boiled one will spin on its end. In the case of the raw egg Weebles wobble and they DO fall down.

Yesterday was a good day. I picked a nice mess of my conch peas from our garden, shelled them, and cooked them for supper. I had a roast, and potatoes with them. They were so good. The kids even asked for a second helping of them.

Yep... the max heat is hugely important. If you let the water get to a boil, that is too hot and the meat gets tough.

Old meat needs to simmer.

Yep thermometer will tell you ....

conch peas? Oh I have to look em up. OH my those sound good..... I love blackeyed peas and was wondering if they were similar... Almost impossible to get here fresh. Too short a growing season for the grocery stores. best you can do is buy fresh frozen.

But I never heard of Conch peas... Amazon has em... they are called lady cream peas as well

zoomed in they look almost like little Cow Peas Or Black eyed.... Is this the same.
