Thanks folks! I've found out that there seems to be no "secret" recipes to making flour! I had no idea it was just ground wheat. I didn't think it was that simple!! I've also found out that the flour supposedly loses 45% of it's nutritional value 24 hours after grinding and 90% after 72 hours...

Does anyone here grind their own flour??? I've been looking into this with very little success. Been trying to prep and store for long term and it seems that flour doesn't last very well. Would like to learn how to produce flour from grains (which seem to store forever). I've done some searches...

Sorry! I don't have enough posts to have links in my posts. I just Googled "fried hominy" and found quite a few. I just tried some. 1/2 stick butter 1 onion chopped 1 15 oz. can white hominy salt and pepper to taste Cooked in 8" CI skillet. Was pretty good but my stomach seems to not be very...

Thanks! I did a search before posting and found that. It seemed it was all chili and casseroles. I was hoping for some fried recipes but have since found some. Thanks again for the help.

Northern boy looking for advice and a quick, easy and tasty recipe for Hominy!! I got a few cans of White and Golden from Krogers but have no recipes for them. Did a search but only found some definitions of Hominy and Hominy Grits. Can't eat definitions! Any help would be appreciated!

Nope! Haven't tried it yet (but I surely will)! Looks to good to pass up! May try many variations. Might use sausage, another version with ham, another with diced tomato's and mexican shredded cheese! May even try some with hash browns added.

Just tried your other "easy casserole" and it was great! I'll have to give this one a try also! Thanks!!!

I just tried this! WOW! I love it!! Even with my very limited cooking skills it's easy to make. I varied the recipe a little. I used bacon bits (like you put in salads) and added diced onion and yellow peppers and sharp cheddar. Used an 8" cast iron skillet and cooked in a toaster oven. I think...

I really wish it wasn't true but how can any of us confirm it! No more powdered milk product for me of any kind! It's really a shame since the powdered products have such a good shelf life. Just thought you all should know about it!

Sorry if this is the wrong section for this but I thought it was important for everyone here to know about. It appears that the powdered milk with melamine scare is not over. Apparently there was 20 million pounds of powdered milk product delivered to U.S. food companies this year from China...

Sorry, I got you confused with a fellow from another thread.

pacanis HA! I like it! I guess it would be kinda difficult to use the "ORIGINAL" carton. And yes, I was about to eat a heck of a lot of eggs the next couple of days! I really like your funky chicken! Hows the new smoker going? Are you going to smoke some fish? Pick me up on your next trip to...

Thanks all! I knew with a membership of over 20,000 great cooks I'd learn what I need to know! I have been storing them in the original containers. I read to keep them in the coldest part of the fridge and the door trays seem like they would be the warmest part of the fridge. Thanks for the...

Thanks! You folks have saved me from eating eggs for every meal for the next few days!! Wasn't looking forward to that!

Thank You!

If I have some eggs that have a "sell by" date of Oct. 21 can I expect them to still be good for another 2 weeks? I've had them for a couple of weeks already. I did find this in a Google search and was wondering if it's true or not. "Proper storage extends egg safety...

I've gotten some good info, recipes and free baking guides from a site called "The Prepared Pantry". (preparedpantry.com) I'm not allowed to post links yet, apparently you have to how a certain number of posts to add links. Anyway there is some very good info in the baking guides. Try it...

Thanks Mama! I did a search and read all the threads referring to powdered milk and someone suggested it was the fats are missing from dry milk. The suggestion was to add a little melted butter to add the fat. I'll give it a try. P.S. Your right! I was referring to whole milk and non-fat dry...

I'm new to cooking and baking and was wondering about the amounts of powdered milk to use when making drop biscuits. I've tried making them with regular milk and it comes out great. When I use the powdered the box says to use 1/3 cup of powder and 1 cup of water to make the 1 cup of milk the...

Yes thanks for the link! I downloaded the menu and packaging and pricing from them. I thought this might be something I could use. I'm on food stamps myself. I've had 7 heart attacks in the last three years. If it weren't for the stamps I'd have starved a couple of years ago. I checked the...

I know exactly what you mean. I had a couple leftovers biscuits in the fridge but after all this talk I wanted to make another batch. Good thing the Red Wing game just came on!! There's not enough time between periods to make a batch. In the morning I'll try again!

Thanks! I tried it with shortening instead of butter but it came out the pretty much the same. I've been grabbing many many recipes from the internet lately and I also thought it was weird to use powder and soda. The person that gave the recipe claimed that the soda was needed whenever...

JoeV Thanks. I've still got a few brain cells working but the get a little foggy sometimes! I just started trying drop biscuits but I like em a lot! I don't have counterspace and kneading and rolling just don't cut it. I like these drop biscuits but they come out VERY CRUMBLY! The look great...

Yep! Michigan. Sorry... I was off trying to find out how to make my drop biscuits better! Thanks for the Welcome! I think I'm gonna gain some weight reading here!

Hello folks! I can't remember where but I found this great site by following a link from another forum. This is a great forum and I've learned quite a bit from it already (I've been lurking a while). I'm not much of a cook but I'm learning! At 55 I figured I better learn while a few of my brain...
