  • Olive Oil Jars Left Behind By
    live oil jars left behind by the ancient Greeks are testament to our centuries- old use of cooking oil. Along with salt and pepper, oil Oremains one of the most important and versatile tools in your kitchen. It keeps food from sticking to pans, adds flavor and moisture, and conducts the heat that turns a humble stick of potato into a glorious french fry. Like butter and other fats, cooking oil also acts as a powerful solvent, unleashing fat-soluble nutrients and flavor compounds in everything from tomatoes and onions to spices and herbs. It’s why so many strike recipes begin with heating garlic in oil rather than, say, simmering it in water. The ancient Greeks didn’t tap many cooking oils. (Let’s see: olive oil, olive oil, or—ooh, this is exciting!—how about olive oil?) But you certainly can. From canola to safflower to grapeseed to walnut, each oil has its own unique flavor (or lack thereof), aroma, and optimal cooking temperature. Choosing the right kind for the task at hand can save you money, boost your health, and improve your cooking. OK, so you probably don’t stop to consider your cooking oil very often.

  • Recipes for the Birds Recipes for the Birds 1
    TEXAS PARKS AND WILDLIFE Recipes for the Birds Recipes for the Birds 1 The following recipes have something special for all the guests who will visit your feeders. Your visitors will be delighted with their favorite menus, no matter the season. Ingredients Information Seeds & Grains The following can be bought at your local feed stores: mixed wild bird seed, millet, cracked corn, peanut hearts, thistle and sunflower seeds. Grit Grit is necessary to grind and digest the coarse foods that birds eat. You can purchase commercial bird gravel, or if available, coarse beach sand will serve the purpose. Raw Beef Suet Suet provides energy and warmth during the cold months. When prepar­ ing suet, to make a smoother liquid, put it through a meat grinder before melting. To make a solid suet cake, reheat. For those concerned about spoilage of beef suet in our summer heat, a reasonable alternative is a mixture of equal portions of shortening and peanut butter. Kitchen Scraps Keep cake, doughnuts, pie crust or anything with sugar in a covered con­ tainer. Use a separate container for crusts and stale breads. Granola Treat One cup of each of the following: wheat germ, peanut hearts, white millet, raisins, crushed dog bones and sunflower seeds. Heat 1/2 cup honey separately. Add to dry mixture. Mix well, bake at 375° for ten minutes. Refrigerate. Mixture can be fed as granola treat or mixed with suet. 2 Recipes for the Birds Nesting Season While nesting, birds will not need to depend on humans for food. Providing them with nesting materials and housing will entice visitors.

  • What Are “Oils”?
    What are “oils”? Oils are fats that are liquid at room temperature, like the vegetable oils used in cooking. Oils come from many different plants and from fish. Some common oils are: • canola oil • corn oil • cottonseed oil • olive oil • safflower oil • soybean oil • sunflower oil Some oils are used mainly as flavorings, such as walnut oil and sesame oil. A number of foods are naturally high in oils, like: • nuts • olives • some fish • avocados Foods that are mainly oil include mayonnaise, certain salad dressings and soft (tub or squeeze) margarine with no trans fats. Check the Nutrition Facts label to find margarines with 0 grams of trans fat. Most oils are high in monounsaturated or polyunsaturated fats, and low in saturated fats. Oils from plant sources (vegetable and nut oils) do not contain any cholesterol. In fact, no foods from plants sources contain cholesterol. A few plant oils, however, including coconut oil and palm kernel oil, are high in saturated fats and for nutritional purposes should be considered to be solid fats. Solid fats are fats that are solid at room temperature, like butter and shortening. Solid fats come from many animal foods and can be made from vegetable oils through a process called hydrogenation. Some common solid fats are: • butter • beef fat (tallow, suet) • chicken fat • pork fat (lard) • stick margarine • shortening How are oils different from solid fats? All fats and oils are a mixture of saturated fatty acids and unsaturated fatty acids. Solid fats contain more saturated fats and/or trans fats than oils. Oils contain more monounsaturated (MUFA) and polyunsaturated (PUFA) fats.

  • How to Make Herbal Suet
    How to Make Herbal Suet Materials Needed Ingredients: Raw beef suet Unsaturated fats (olive oil, peanut butter) Nuts Seeds Dried fruits Dried herbs Utensils: Double boiler or non-stick pan Grinder Strainer Measuring cups Mixing bowl Molds Spoon I am using a non-stick wok pan. Once the suet cooks down to a liquid, you need to strain off the meat bits, which are known as grackles! Those of you who eat meat can use them to sprinkle on salads and such. I am using a medium low heat. Just hot enough so it bubbles a little. Strain the meat bits and tissue from the rendered suet. I like to add organic peanut butter which is runny to begin with. You can use olive oil, or any other number of oils. For each batch, I mix 3 cups rendered suet, and 1 cup peanut butter. This is to add some unsaturated fat to the saturated fat for better digestion. Here is where you get to play! You can mix in any number of things in; dried herbs, nuts, dried fruit, wild birdseed, sunflower seed, raisins etc. The consistency can be as runny or thick as you like, so long as you can get it into a mold. The suet will harden as it cools and bind it all together. I mixed in quick oats, ground up rosehips, burdock root, dried dandelion leaves. If you are worried about rancidity for long term storage, you can either freeze your cakes, or add 1tsp slippery elm bark powder to each 1lb of fat, then store in the fridge or a cool place.

  • Suet - Wikipedia Page 1 of 5
    Suet - Wikipedia Page 1 of 5 Suet From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Suet is the raw, hard fat of beef or mutton found around the loins and kidneys. Suet has a melting point of between 45 °C and 50 °C (113 °F and 122 °F) and congelation between 37 °C and 40 °C (98.6 °F and 104 °F). Its high smoke point makes it ideal for deep frying and pastry production. The primary use of suet is to make tallow, although it is also used as an ingredient in cooking, especially in traditional Calf suet puddings, such as British Christmas pudding. Suet is made into tallow in a process called rendering, which involves melting and extended simmering, followed by straining, cooling and usually by repeating the entire process. Unlike tallow, suet that is not pre-packed requires refrigeration in order to be stored for extended periods. Contents ◾ 1Trade ◾ 2 Cuisine ◾ 3 Availability ◾ 4 Vegetarian alternative ◾ 5 Cultural and religious restrictions ◾ 6Bird feed ◾ 7 Suet-based recipes ◾ 8See also ◾ 9 References Trade In the 17th century economy of the Viceroyalty of Peru, Chile's husbandry and agriculture based economy had a peripheral role exporting mainly suet, ch'arki and leather to the other provinces of the viceroyalty. The importance of this trade led Chilean historian Benjamín Vicuña Mackenna to label the 17th century the century of suet (Spanish: siglo del sebo).[1] Cuisine Suet is essential in several traditional British dishes. Suet pastry is soft in contrast to the crispness of shortcrust pastry, which makes it ideal for certain sweet and savoury dishes.
