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?
Jam teaches you a lot of these lessons that we learn hovering above a pot with a wooden spoon in hand. And, so, I think God, in a way, is in the food we cook. God tastes delicious in this jam.
I love this jam because it's both easy to make and super versatile. It's lovely with breakfast items like English muffins or scones, but it gets really exciting when you pair it with chevre and candied bacon.
I've wanted to make banana jam for quite sometime well luck would have it that my local farmers market had bags of seconds on bananas. So here is my newest favorite creation.
I was curious to find out if Homemade Irish Cream would taste as good as Bailey's. I found the flavor to be just as good and smooth, but it was much higher in alcohol content than your average bottle from the grocery store.
It's citrus season, and yes, everyone is making Meyer lemon marmalade. But mine has vanilla bean. Put it on some Greek honey yogurt, and it tastes like cheesecake.
