Summer Berry Fool

oz Raspberries

oz Blackberries

oz Blueberries

oz Strawberries

Sugar

tbsp Powdered Sugar

Heavy Whipping Cream

Cut the leafy tops from the strawberries, then cut them into quarters.  Smaller ones can just be cut in half.  You want the pieces to roughly match the size of the raspberries.

Cut in half the largest of the blackberries, again trying to keep a roughly consistent size with the other berries.

Add all the berries to a medium mixing bowl.  Then Add the 3 tbsp of sugar and mix well.

cover and set aside for 30 - 40 minutes

Prepping the Berries

Pour 1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream into a large mixing bowl along with 2 tbsp powdered sugar.

Whisk cream vigorously till it thickens into a thick whipped cream.

Whipped Cream

After 30 to 40 minutes a syrupy liquid will have formed in the bottom of the bowl with the berries.

Serve in a wine glass, layering a few berries, then a little whipped cream till the glass is mostly full.

Finish with one last dollop of whipped cream, and garnish with sliced strawberries, and fresh mint leaves.

Store leftovers in the refrigerator up to 5 days

Classic Macaroni and Tomatoes

macaroni

bacon grease

tomatoes

salt

black pepper

sugar (optional - see note)

Cook the macaroni in salted water to al dente according to the package instructions then drain and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking process.

In a large pot, melt the bacon grease and pour in the tomatoes with the juice. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium and cook until most of the liquid has evaporated, stirring occasionally - about 10 minutes.

Add the macaroni to the tomatoes and mix well.  Add the salt and pepper.  Mix well then adjust seasoning to taste. (See my note about sugar below.) Serve warm.

Vanya Insull's whole roasted pumpkin soup

butternut pumpkin

onion

olive oil

garlic, crushed

tsp cumin

vegetable stock

To taste salt and cracked black pepper

white bread

Tbsp chopped fresh Italian parsley

tsp cream (optional)

Preheat the oven to 170°C fan bake. Line an oven tray with baking paper.

Place the whole pumpkin on the lined oven tray. Cut the ends off the onion and cut the unpeeled onion in half. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and place on the tray skin-side down.

Bake for 1 hour 40 minutes or up to 2 hours, depending on the size of your pumpkin. It is cooked when the skin has browned and it is easily pierced with a fork.

To make the croutons, tear the bread into bite-sized chunks and spread out on an oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil, then bake for about 15 minutes until golden.

Once the pumpkin has cooled, peel off and discard the skin. Cut the pumpkin in half and scoop out and discard the seeds. Chop the flesh into large pieces or mash it. Discard the onion skin and coarsely chop the onion.

To make the soup, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large pot, add the garlic and saute for 1 minute.

Add the onion and cumin to the pot and stir together.

Stir in the pumpkin and stock, bring to a simmer and cook for 5–10 minutes.

Remove from the heat and use a stick blender to puree the soup. Taste and adjust seasonings.

Serve topped with the home-made croutons, parmesan, parsley and a swirl of cream (if using).

Sometimes, the best recipes are classic dishes with everyday ingredients. That's why we love these easy and delicious salmon patties.

Easy Salmon Patty Recipe

salmon,

green onions, thinly sliced

fresh dill, chopped

panko breadcrumbs

low fat mayonnaise

lemon juice

Dijon mustard

egg,

Cooking spray

Add all ingredients (except for cooking spray) into a large bowl and mix until well incorporated.

Using hands, form into 8 small patties. Chill patties until ready to cook.

Spray cooking spray over a large pan over medium-high heat. Cook patties until golden and crispy, about 2 to 3 minutes per side.

Serve salmon patties with leafy greens and lemon wedges, if desired.

Plum wine is earthy, rich, and smooth. It is delicious as an after-dinner wine or served chilled as an aperitif. It's also a great base for mulled wine.

Homemade Plum Wine

lbs of ripe plums (no moldy ones)

lbs of sugar

water (chlorine-free)

lemon juice (not bottled)

champagne yeast (affiliate link)

Throughout the wine-making process, it is important to sanitize EVERYTHING that comes into contact with the plums. (See the section above for more information).

Wash the plums, remove the stems, and put them in a large pot. Then use a potato masher to roughly break the skins.

Bring the water to a boil. Then pour the boiling water over the plums. You can do this in batches with an electric kettle. The boiling water is to help kill off any mold or bacteria that might be on the skin of the plums.

Put a lid on the pot and stash it in a quiet corner of your house to cool.

After 24 hours, add the lemon juice and sugar to the plums and give them a good stir. Follow the instructions on the yeast package (mine involves re-hydrating before use), then stir the yeast into the plums. Give everything another good stir after one hour to make sure it is well mixed. If you want to calculate the alcohol levels, remove some of the liquid at this point to measure the specific gravity (see section above for details).

Cover the pot and leave it somewhere warm to ferment for 4-6 days. Give the mixture a good stir once or twice a day.

After the initial ferment, filter out the solids and move the liquid to your carboys. It&#8217;s better to leave some of the liquid behind in the solids than to have solids in your carboys. I usually use a siphon to get out most of the liquid. Then I strain the rest through a mesh brewing bag and bottle it right away for a bit of plum cider. It carbonates very quickly, so stash it in the fridge right away and use a bottle that can handle the buildup of carbonation. It should be carbonated and ready to drink after 2-3 days in the fridge. 

Top the carboys with an airlock and leave them to ferment for 2 weeks.

After 2 weeks, rack the wine into a clean jug for another round of fermentation. (This is to remove the spent yeast, which really doesn&#8217;t taste good. Skipping this step will result in a not-so-tasty wine.)

After two months bottle the wine. The wine needs to age for at least 10 months to develop a nice mellow flavor. I&#8217;m often tempted to sample it early, but it&#8217;s always a disappointment.

Making plum wine is one of my treats of the summer. I get the kids rounded up and head over to the orchard to harvest; they get to hang out and gorge on the fruit while I fill up a tub of the sweet fruit. We sort through it at home like it was Halloween candy and get a batch simmering with some sugar to boost the alcohol levels. We find that the wine doesn't get to it's best until April or May, so we get a solid 8-10 months of expectation. But it never disappoints!

I find that adding a plastic bag after the airlock is a good way to actually monitor the volume of bubbles I get, but make sure to empty it before it's full:)   In my second ferment, towards day #12-14, I noticed that the bag wasn't inflating anymore (in a 24 hour interval), I guess this is the signal when it's time to rack it up.

Great step by step guide to better understand the process.    It's my first time at making wine and I'm super excited to try it!   I live in Laos and we get TONS of amazing and cheap fruits in season.   Imagine, fresh plums (really small and juicy, very deep color) at about 0.33$USD per kilo....     We have about 100kg of plums ready to start our second batch in 2 week.

In my case being in Laos I couldn't find wine yeast:/    I used Angel instant dry yeast and I would guess its fine.     Bubbled all the way until day #11ish of second fermentation.    It is also mentioned on the packet that it is ''sugar tolerant'' yeast.

I am giving this recipe a go, using "Ittalian Prune Plums". After the xxxfirst week in a carboy the fermination came to a stop, I was hoping I could get some insight. Being it has a whole week to go before the racking and sitting for two months.

Thank you so much. I am following everytiing as you describe. In other words, I am also going for the plum cider. I transferred some young wine to bottles after the first fermentation. But what is the further process. Just ready to drink, or need further processing? Thank you so much :)

This is my maiden voyage into winemaking. Thank you for the detailed recipe. My question to you is the following: have you ever tried doubling or tripling the recipe? Thank you in advance. I’m looking forward to the results!

We just bought a house that has a small orchard in the back! So excited to make some fruit wines. I'm doing a 5 gal batch right off the bat which is scary. My question is I bought a carboy and borrowed one from a friend. They are 2 different sizes. Is it ok to have air at the top for the second fermenting process?

Hard Boiled Eggs

eggs

water (as needed)

Place the eggs in the holes of the egg rack or into a steamer basket. Lower the egg rack or steamer into the cooker. If using a steamer basket, do not use a trivet with it.

Add the water to the cooker to reach at least halfway up the side of the eggs. Close and lock the lid.

For electric pressure cookers or multi-cookers, pressure cook on HIGH for 9 minutes.

For stovetop pressure cookers, pressure cook on HIGH for 6 minutes.

Once the cooking time is done, release the pressure and open the lid.

Transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water to cool for about 3 minutes. Once they are cooled to your liking you can peel and enjoy!

Chicken legs or drumsticks are the most economical and budget friendly cut of chicken, but we are going to make it taste like a million bucks! I bought a pack of chicken legs for about 10 dollars and made a marinade that didn’t even cost half of that! I layered potatoes, onion, and lemons, topped them with marinated chicken legs, and roasted it in the oven for an incredible family meal that you will absolutely love! The best part is that you likely have all the ingredients in your pantry and your refrigerator right at this very moment! I used fresh ingredients such as lemons, onions, and potatoes, coupled with tomato paste and the perfect seasoning blend for a dinner you won&#39;t forget. Let&#39;s make it!

The Best Roasted Chicken Legs and Potatoes

4.5 lbs chicken drumsticks (room temperature & patted dry)

tomato paste

lemons (divided)

tsp chicken bouillon roasted chicken base

tbsp minced garlic

tbsp Adobo all purpose seasoning

tbsp italian seasoning

½ tbsp smoked paprika

Sazon

potatoes

Make sure your chicken legs are room temperature and patted dry. Place them into a large ziploc bag and set it aside.

To make the marinade, in a measuring cup or bowl add 1 cup of olive oil, tomato paste, the juice of 2 lemons, chicken bouillon base, minced garlic, adobo seasoning, Italian seasoning, smoked paprika, sazon, and cracked black pepper. Whisk that together until fully combined. Now, pour ¾ of the marinade into the ziploc bag with the chicken legs (save the remaining marinade for later). Close the ziploc bag and toss the marinade with the chicken legs until the legs are fully coated in the marinade. Let that marinade for at least 30 minutes or even better overnight!

In a large deep dish baking dish, add in your sliced potatoes, sliced onion, and 1 lemon sliced into rounds. Now, take the measuring cup that has the remaining marinade and add about a tbsp of olive oil into the cup. Whisk that together until combined and then pour the marinade into the baking dish. Using your hands, toss the marinade with the potatoes, onion, and lemon slices until everything is coated.

Then, take some tongs and remove the chicken legs from the bag they have been marinating in and arrange them evenly into the baking dish. Once all the chicken legs are in the baking dish, pour the remaining marinade that was left in the ziploc bag over the chicken legs.

Bake them in the oven at 375°F for about 1 hour and 10 minutes or until they reach an internal temperature of 170°F. After 30 minutes baste the chicken legs with the juices from the bottom of the pan. Then continue cooking them for the remaining 35 - 40 minutes. Once it's done, remove the chicken from the baking dish and set it aside on a plate. This step is optional, but I set the oven to broil and placed the baking dish with the potatoes back in the oven just for a few minutes, so the potatoes get a little brown and crispy. Serve & enjoy!

Recipe is simple &amp; tasty! Served with a salad. Chicken was so tender, Husband liked the seasoning and guest liked it too! It’s just two of us so I’ve been sharing the food with friends &amp; your website and videos with everyone!

I live alone and cook for myself, so I scaled down the ingredients to make 1-2 servings. BIGGGGG mistake, I should have made this for the servings indicated. This chicken was SOOOOO delicious! Next time, and there will be a next time, I will make enough for me to have leftovers. A super easy, full of flavor chicken dish, thank you for sharing this recipe!
