Why? Because you can! And pickle, and jam, or otherwise celebrate the resurgence of the domestic arts our forebears held so dear. Put on your best apron and step into our kitchen, won't you?
Melons always seem to be over-joyously celebrated the first few days they come in from the field, and then…what the heck am I going to do with all these melons!
Well folks, meet the melon chip.
There are traditions of making fruit beers all over the world. Raspberries, cherries, peaches, pumpkins, blueberries- just about every fruit has made it’s way into a wirt kettle at some point. However, I have never seen a cantaloupe beer....
Melon Jam? Why not? Canteloupe and peaches are such a nice color combo and toasted pine nuts bring the whole endeavor to a new high. You won't find this in a Smucker's jar.
