Interesting Book About Poland's Role in WWII
I ran across this book today as a Kindle Daily Deal on Amazon. I bought it but haven't started reading it yet. I thought some of you might be interested: No Greater Ally: The Untold Story of Poland's Forces in World War II http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0067AZFBG/ref=amb_link_410419962_9?pf_rd_m=...

Findin' Yer (Pork) Butt
Topic Was Split By CW On 031614@11:46 From The Following Link: http://wedlinydomowe.pl/en/viewtopic.php?p=25330#25330 I'm not surprised that I'm paying more for better cuts of pork than in the US since we don't have the massive corn and soya production industry here and all of the prime materials f...

Thanks, Steve and Ross. I'll take your advice about the pork shoulder and use the fat cap, adding additional back fat if needed. Your bacon looks awesome but I'm not ready to cure and smoke yet so I'll probably go a head and grind the jowls to mix with the bratwurst, which had been my original plan ...

Thanks, Bob. I'd looked for the original post but hadn't found it until you gave the page number. Your bread is gorgeous and I'm sure it tastes as good as it looks. Thanks for the recipe and photos, particularly the photos. As they say, a picture is worth a thousand words and anyone who sees the pho...

Great photos and great looking bread, Bob! I assume the cast iron skillet is for adding water to create moist heat, correct? Ray, when you're making free-form loaves, the dough needs to be fairly stiff and tight or it will settle out when baking. I've been making bread for almost 50 years and still ...

For those who are interested, here are a few of my barbecue recipes. They're based on recipes I used in my barbecue joint but have been adapted for home use. Except for the optional use of sazon completa, which can be found in the Latin foods section of most supermarkets, they're fairly traditional ...

I wonder if regional preference for white vs yellow corn has anything to do with climate differences and other growing conditions or is purely local tradition. In Costa Rica, masa is made from white corn and it works fine for tamales. Just about the only yellow corn I've seen here is used for animal...

I'm not sure yet where my sausage making will take me. For now, I'm concentrating an just a few fresh sausages and won't branch out into other types until I feel like I've completely mastered fresh sausages. So far, I've only been making American-style sausages: NY Italian, Wisconsin Brats and South...

I agree about leaving the sausage out at room temperature but have seen other recipes that call for leaving cased sausages at room temperature for shorter times before bagging them and assumed it was to allow the casings to dry. I've been putting mine on the top shelf of the refrigerator, uncovered ...

Thanks, Chuckwagon. I hope you enjoy my breads. The multi-grain bread is particularly good for toast. I've got a few other recipes to share and will post in the member recipe section. Naturally, I'm a bit prejudiced towards my own cooking and think that, in particular, my barbecue rubs, mops, sauces...

In most of the Deep South, white cornmeal is much more commonly used. In fact, I'd never even heard of yellow cornmeal until I was grown up. Here's what White Lily says about the two: "The only difference between white and yellow corn meal is the color of corn used when it was ground. White corn mea...

As a newbie at sausage making, I quickly ran into a problem which at first seemed like it might be fat-smearing but actually was something entirely different. I'll admit to being an obsessive-compulsive perfectionist when it comes to cooking and can't count the number of times when I've thrown out p...

Ray, since you're going to be using King Arthur flours anyway, you might see if you can get your hands on their rye bread improver. I think it really helps bring out the rye flavor: https://www.kingarthurflour.com/shop/items/rye-bread-improver-16-oz However, I don't know how well it works with sourd...
