Swallowtail Farm

Hey lovely listeners/readers!

If you enjoyed hearing about delightful, delicious produce this week on Tasty Jams, then check out Swallowtail Farm's website (linked above) or visit them at the Wednesday downtown farmer's market. You can ask them about their CSA program, how to volunteer, their future livestock programs, or just what you might be able to buy currently. They are lovely, and quite friendly, as are many of the producers at that market.

I'd encourage everyone to ask more questions about your food, and if the producers are unwilling or unable to answer those questions.... rethink who you buy your food from!

Onions & Garlic,

Zambria

Baking Substitutions

Sometimes, we don't have things in our kitchens. Maybe we should, but for that last minute recipe or when we're really poor... these substitutions come in real handy!

1 cup Buttermilk = 1 cup milk & 1 tbsp vinegar (use a regular white vinegar unless you want to change the taste!)

Allspice = 1/2 cinnamon & 1/2 cloves

Pumpkin pie spice = 1/2 cinnamon, 1/4 ginger, 1/8 of both cloves and nutmeg (I tend heavier on the nutmeg)

Raisins = dried cranberries OR prunes OR apricots (chopped) OR chocolate chips OR etc etc etc. Pick whatever you like and might compliment your other ingredients!

1 cup Cinnamon Sugar = 1 cup sugar & 1 tsp cinnamon

1 tbsp Cornstarch = 2 tbsp flour

The Long Awaited Meatloaf Cake

We promised this in perhaps the very first episode of Tasty Jams, and here at last. Feast your eyes on the Meatloaf Cake....

Use any type of meatloaf recipe you like and decorate as desired!

Today!

Tune in to our show! This week, we'll be discussing french food.

French cuisine has had perhaps the biggest impact on our modern way of cooking and thinking about food. It is considered the fanciest, tastiest and most buttery cuisine.

Point being, we like it.

Listen in today, when we'll have a genuine French Guy in studio. We will eat beignets and cheese, discuss the glory that is french cooking, and hopefully coerce some secret family recipes out of him!
