I love Kaluha. I bake a "death by chocolate" punch bowl cake that requires a couple of ounces of Kaluha...
Yum, Yum!

I did a big batch of kulaha last yr-- made about 6 quarts, just opened my last one this wk. I mix it in my milk all the time. Google it there are lots of tutorials.

I made 2 huge jugs of vanilla for teacher gifts this yr, but haven't gotten around to buying bottles yet. When I did look @ bottles I took the time to do the math & got discouraged @ what I was spending per bottle!


Anyone have a good recipes for canning dried black eye peas? Would like to do some pints, but wasn't sure what to put for seasonings.

Today I made, from right to left

.. 4 pints of pomegranate jelly, 2 pints of apple cranberry jam, and 2 pints 2 half pints apple jam with cranberry jam on top. I was trying to do a layered jelly but the apples were obviously way more dense when I started jarring which resulted in me mixing the first 2 jars and the last 4 jars I did mostly apple with a little cranberry on top! I think it came out looking really pretty.. who knows what it'll taste like. I did have some extra apple jam I put in the fridge and we had that and some extra pomegranate jelly on english muffins tonight. It was very good. DBF couldnt pick which one he liked better and said 'We need 'em both!'!

I also ended up with a quart of fresh jellied cranberries for thanksgiving! Just trying and testing some things! Trial and error!

Okay so, those bottles of vanilla were 12oz, not 8oz, as I just recycled the shorter fatter beer bottles. They are already a dark amber liquid in there. By Christmas I am sure they will be DELISH. 5 are gifts for sure, the other 4...may just be mine

DH says I will never have to make it again!!! But it was so fun!!!

Oooo homemade Kaluha....I hate it, but know a lot of others that don't. Will be reading up on that later.
