November 30 Day Rule/Focus Pix & Discussion

thank you sir,good afternoon..

 

Well, 2 can play at THAT game. lol...now, I'm teasing YOU.

 

I am sorry to hear that Jeff.
I feel for your loss.

But like anything in the food world, alternative is just that.

Take butter for instance.
America sells what is called sweet cream butter.
The cream used for that butter is pastureized before churning.

Well my grandmother made butter.
They took the cream and sat it in a container till it got full.
Sometimes a day or overnight.
This made, unbeknownst to her, a cultured butter.
Full of flavor and higher butter fat.

The flavor and smoothness is very different between the two.
My grandfather did not care for store bought butter.

Now if you buy a European butter.
They pastureized the cream, then reintroduce the bacteria, then let it cure or soure before they churn it.
This makes for a better butter, like the kind my grandfather liked.

If you don't use European or cultured butter on your cornbread, in my opinion your cheating yourself.

Such a little thing changes the whole recipe.
But that's just my opinion.

I now return to your regularly scheduled shaving...

What would you say about margarine?

 

Thanks, Terry! Cultured butter is better? I’m sure it is!

 

good for wheel bearings..

 

What is there to say about margarine.
If I'm gonna eat fat on bread, potatoes etc.... I'm gonna eat the best tasting smoothest fat there is.
So butter is wher its at, for me.
It takes less fat, if it has more flavor.
Just my opinion.


Your millage may vary.

That's what I've been reading about the two(butter and maaagarine)....will need to read some more. Nice write-up on butter, though.

 

De squeaky wheel gets de margarine, eh?

 

Throw it out in the garbage!

 

Isn't it just oil?

 

Ok ....
One more and I'll go.

So while in our shop a few year back a lady from the news department came in yelling.
It was a piece of equipment they broke, we were in charge of fixing and parts were ordered.
One tech said "look yelling won't get parts here any sooner and if your people were more careful you wouldn't have this problem ".
She shouted " the squeaky wheel gets the grease".
Well the head tech looked at her a serious as a heart beat and said, " here, we replace those squeaky wheels".
That must have hit a nerve.
She never came back to the shop again.
She found another job about 5 months later.
True story.
