mr blizzard Posted October 25, 2015 Report Share Posted October 25, 2015 OK so I am on an egg theme this week, Thought I would try to make eggs benedict this morning for the family, and no I did not ask Rick to post a pic of this one, they are worse if u can believe it than the boiled egg pic, The plan was to have potato patties as the base with bacon, ya baby, on top with the eggs over bacon , topped with hollandaise sauce,,,,,,,,,I was able to salvage the yokes lol, but in some videos they show some strange white substance attached to the yoke, when they come out of the pot :wallbash: Anyone have a surefire way of doing the eggs, I tried a medium, boil for some and then a low boil Thx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Headhunter Posted October 26, 2015 Report Share Posted October 26, 2015 World Health Organization announced today that eating processed meats like BACON, ham, salami etc will increase your risk of collon cancer by 18%. I wonder if this means that the demand for bacon will drop and with it, the price! LOL HH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DanD Posted October 26, 2015 Report Share Posted October 26, 2015 Speaking of beacon. 10Lbs of pork belly, fresh form the abattoir. Cut into smaller slabs giving more surface area for the cure to absorb. The Cure. 1 cup of kosher salt 2 cups brown sugar 4 table spoons of course ground black pepper 4 table spoon of dried crushed red pepper 4 table spoons of dried onion flakes 4 table spoons crushed garlic 2 tea spoons of thyme 2 tea spoons of crushed bay leaves 2 tea spoons of pink salt (Cure 1) Mix cure and rub into pork blelly. Cover in air tight container and place in fridge. Once a day remove from fridge and flip pork over, recover with the now moist cure in bottom of container. Place back in fridge. After 36 hrs the moister has really started coming out of the meat. After 7 days the pork belly will be cured and ready to be rinsed off and then soaked in cold water for a couple of hours to draw out some of the salt. After that it's ready to be sliced and pan fried or it can go into the smoker to give it that great smoked flavor that my wife doesn't like. LOL This batch is going to be 50/50 of just cured and cured and smoked. I'll post again when to curing is done. Dan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr blizzard Posted October 26, 2015 Report Share Posted October 26, 2015 Dan that looks incredible, we cannot get a slab like that up here at all, interesting recipie, please keep us posted on the results, by the way we tried the egg in the microwave with a bit of water,,,,,,turned out perfect thank you , I can get pork bellies in a 2 lb slab only, but am going to give your recipie a go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanD Posted October 26, 2015 Report Share Posted October 26, 2015 Just be careful with the pink salt for that small amount of pork. I wouldn't put anymore then a 1/4 tea spoon in. Some people don't like using cure 1 salt because it's has 6.25% sodium nitrite in, with the remainder being table salt. Sodium nitrite is toxic and will make you sick (or worse) if to much is ingested; but for curing meats (used properly); it kills and stops bacteria from forming and it is also what keeps the pink colour of the meat. Your chose let the bacteria kill you or the sodium nitrite; for me its an extra precaution using it (properly) not to get us sick from eating home preserved meats. I still have some smoked beacon in the freezer; but I needed an excuse to use this bad boy, I just bought off of Kijiji. Its an older Hobart commercial slicer; it took two of us to carry the thing.

mr blizzard Posted October 26, 2015 Report Share Posted October 26, 2015 That's a real mans meat slicer lol, bought one from ctc a few months ago when we tried Cliffs pork belly recipie, which is also very good , the one from ctc is kinda flimsy but still gived a pretty uniform cut, yours will last forever by the looks of it, well done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smitty55 Posted October 28, 2015 Report Share Posted October 28, 2015 One of my favorite treats to eat are homemade preserves. Between wifey and I we put some good hours in the kitchen this fall. Most years I like to try something new. This year it was garlic and jalapeno preserves (second shelf,far left) and salsa verde made with tomatillos. The salsa is quite different and tasty and I haven't tried the jalapenos yet, but it won't be long. We should be good for a while now... About half of these are from this year.

Healthy looking larder. We do our darndest to have enough to last us to the next harvest. We have to do more this year with a number of large family events coming up. Nee dlots of pickles and such for the showers, baptisms and weddings coming up. Tommorow will be a case of red currant jelly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
