That page was just an example of what the jam looked like. I can't vouch for that recipe. It was normal jam sweet, not overly. But I did find out she added goji berries and pineapple also, which cut down on the white sugar additions I don't taste the other flavors strangely enough, just a mellow grapefruit flavor. I hate marmalade, so citrus preserves always make me suspect. This is not bitter.

I wish I could. They were a gift from a friend. It's not a marmalade, it's a jam made from red grapefruit. I don't know her recipe or technique. But it looks like this.

And pecans!

Bison meatballs with wild mushroom confit. A Red/White/Blue parfait; red grapefruit preserves, creme mousseline, and fresh blueberries with pecan meltaway cookie chunks.

SOS. Tart it up with mushroom powder, a touch of madeira or port, a dab of dijon, maybe a mashed-in anchovy. Spoon it over a choux . 1 pan meal, not a casserole. Many uses. Freezes nicely.

Whole Foods has a beer bar. I take returns to Whole Foods, I then have a great beer. There is no downside. UPS does not provide this service to me as of yet.

I had to send back 2 of the Prime Day purchases for a strange reason, the product description was wrong. ! ordered a hose fitting that was described and pictured as metal even on the package, but when it came it was plastic. The other was a mug that said it was silicone (I bought it for camping/roadtrips) and when it arrived it was ceramic. It was a nice mug, but wrong material. Hopefully 2 of these issues does not make a trend. I will say the new "drop off at Whole Foods" Amazon returns is painless and easy.

If that isn't a name of a noodle shop yet, it should be. Well done.

I did a fruit based ketchup/bbq sauce this week too. I had some dried fruit I wanted to use up (pineapple, wolfberry, black currant). First, I made a tisane of the fruits that I froze in ice cubes for flavoring drinks/cocktails. Next, I smashed the solid remnants of the fruits into a jar of white wine vinegar and let it sit for a few weeks. Then I strained the solids back out and used those in a ketchup/bbq sauce I cobbled together through looking at various fruit-based ketchup recipes off the web. The beauty was the fruit was used 3 times for 3 different things (tisane, vinegar, sauce) and the ketchup was sweet enough with the fruit, I didn't need to add more sugar.

I knew that truck driver seemed a bit squirrelly.

I've noticed this recently. I ordered some of my beloved Gardena brand yard equipment from Amazon, and I got free Prime shipping from Amazon Germany! At a cheaper cost than the equipment in the Amazon US. Something must have changed recently for Amazon Global ordering. So if you've ever wanted stuff from Amazon EU but were put off on the shipping price, look again. It may now have free Prime shipping.

I got a Rubbermaid 12 qt. polycarbonate tub for SV for $12.71. Been watching that for awhile.

Sauces. I learned how to make pan sauces and the mother sauces off Youtube during shutdowns. Now sauces are normal at our table. I've just started with chimichurri's and other veg based sauces. On a side note, kitchen scraps are now turned into broths for use in making sauces.. So I've been using kitchen scraps more than ever.

Yep, caution is key for sure around Neo-D. Understood.

Guess I'm first to log the Prime Day loot. OEM Instant Pot gaskets, a pair for under $8. A bunch of neodymium magnet hooks for hanging stuff around. Some Viancin silicone covers. Silipint silicone bowls. Lots of stuff in Amazon Warehouse is Prime Day 25% off the already warehouse prices. A lot of my purchases were from those deals. Seems like there's pretty good deals in the Grocery and Amazon Fresh/Whole Foods departments too.

Crushed pineapple I'd assume. Edit: beat to it.

Yep, this is true. Had my first go with gator sausage in New Orleans at a breakfast dive that was amazing. Sadly, The Tally Ho is no longer around. I had cathead biscuits and over easy eggs and gator sausage. I think a lot of my "not tried until older" American food is related to traveling to places where those foods are "normal".

Mentioned in another thread and it reminded me: Pineapple Cheese casserole. Had never heard of it until I spent Thanksgiving in SW Georgia with extended family. I was skeptical but politely tried it and dang if it wasn't pretty delicious. I tried making it myself, but it wasn't the same as being in The South with the lovely musical drawls telling stories, along that impossibly long table filled with happy eaters. Green Bean Casserole also something I never had until I went to other people's Thanksgivings, and that remains a big NOPE for me. Calf fries/Rocky Mtn Oysters I like. Also, does fried rattlesnake count as Americana?

Maybe a silicone Silpat or the like on the baking pan would be a barrier between the salt and the metal pan?

I had forgotten how much I like Oyakodon. I think in the first technique, SV'ing the chicken in dashi to the perfect consistency would fit right in there. I'm adding to my list of "to try". Also, Oyakodon sounds like a better way to use up excess egg whites from other recipes. Not just for meringue or angel food, but an actual meal. That's a revelation.

There's a bubble tea/tapioca ball shortage at the moment. It's in the news. I think Taro Milk Tea is the best milk tea around. You can readily get taro(aka ube) powder online at Amazon. Along with tapioca pearls. I personally don't bother with the tapioca pearls, they take up room in the glass that should be filled with more milk tea. Now, for a old-school milk tea jolt, I suggest Hong Kong style Coffee Tea (Yuanyang) which combines the power of black tea and strong coffee and sweetened full fat dairy. This keeps the mahjong game going at high speed. I was served this with waffles at a mahjong place in HK years ago. Of course I lost at mahjong badly but I do remember that coffee tea and waffles. I drink it iced here. Again, tapioca pearls optional.

Donate to foodbank? Make oat flour in food processor for baking? Feed to the birds? Editing to add a really good King Arthur sandwich bread using oats. I've made it and it's very good. Can use all type of oatmeal versions. Oatmeal Sandwich Bread

This is the way.

In my area, blue top might mean the color code of the caps on plastic gallons of standard supermarket milk. Red is whole, blue is 2%, green is 1%, and brown (of course) for chocolate ☺️.

Yes, All the beet soup I grew up with was made with jarred Harvard beets and jarred pickled beets and jarred baby beets. Hardly ever fresh beets, in fact I have no memories of it being made with fresh beets. The soup base was beef neckbones and the rest was jarred. This is American style, Hamtramck style Polish grandma style. It was creamed with sour cream/flour mixture. You could add more vinegar and sour cream to your bowl at the table.
