    Juicer questions

    I don't mind digging it out from a cupboard once in awhile, I just want a reason to do it. Like you said Candocook it's really expensive to buy the fruit and veggies to make the juice, and...like you said sometimes I think we throw away the best stuff after juicing. I guess I could use it the...

    How do you boil an egg?

    Must be using a blast furnace to get a hard boiled egg from cold water in 3 minutes. Can you even get water to boil in 3 minutes on a conventional range? Maybe in a tiny pot?, but that is not a lot of cook time.

    ISO Basque blood-sausage recipe

    Recipe for Basque sausage needed please!!! I am looking for a Basque-style blood sausage recipe. I love this type of blood sausage. It is very hard to find. I have one sausage maker that makes it on rare occassions and hasn't made it for over a year. He is getting old, covets his recipe, and...

    Time for a new microwave

    We have had 2 smaller waves that have died, but the old Tappen is like the Energizer Bunny it just keeps rolling along. I think the only thing we ever use a wave for is thawing, reheating and popcorn.

    Time for a new microwave

    I got an old Tappen that has a probe, but I never use it. When I say Old I mean old. It was made back when they thought we would use them for everyday cooking. Mine has an oven so big you can put a turkey in it. It also has a browning thing-a-majig on top of the oven. ** I was curious so I...

    Favorite knife manufacturer?

    WHAT! No Ginsu users here! I would love a Wusthof, but I think it would be kind of a waste for a home cook. There is just me and "Old What's Her Name" so how much knife work am I going to do. I have a nice 10" Vitorinox Fibrox Chef knife and a 6" everthing by them also. My boning knife...

    If you only had $5.00 what would you fix for a family of 4?

    I think I would buy 5 rifle bullets. Trade one deer for vegees and pantry items. Another for some beer, and yet another for 5 more rifle bullets, and have the family eat like kings all winter.:rolleyes: and your welcome to come have some free range, chemical free meat at my house June.

    Question for those with Septic Tanks...

    I guess this is a bit off topic, but I couldn't agree more Sparrow. I use the county extension so much I have it on speed dial. Everything from making liver and blood sausage, to the btu value of different firewood, to canning. They always seem to have the answer and most stuff is no cost or...

    Question for those with Septic Tanks...

    What a great site Sparrow! We have had a septic most of our lives and there was a lot I didn't know about it. I will probably still use the Rid-x after snow melt. When you lose 6 to 8 feet of snow in a few weeks, the fresh water can be pulled in from the leech bed. I sure did learn a lot...

    Question for those with Septic Tanks...

    8-10 years!!! UFFDA!! Our county (maybe state) laws say every three years. I let it go to 4 (don't tell) and there was an awful lot of AHHH! "STUFF":wacko: in there. I got a 1500 gal tank. There is only me and "Old What's Her Name" most of the time. Rid-x yeah, the frequency depends on your...

    Can you freeze lunch meat?

    I would imagine it would depend on how much water was in the meat. Chicken and beef should be ok (maybe) but I bet balogna and ham would get funky. I froze venison sausage (salami) it was okay, but not as good as fresh. I think freezing put the keibash to the spices. Texture was quite right...
