RE: you want to be Southern? - sally - 01-01-2012
My blackeyed peas came out better than ever and the only thing I put in them was minced garlic, bay leaf and salt and pepper. Usually I do celery, onions, carrots and ham. The simple version came out much better for some reason.

Cracker, i nearly lived on fresh-picked GA peaches my last year in fla. i met a man who drove down with a truckload every weekend, and i bought tons! i mean i ate them 3 meals a day! they were the best peaches i ever had in my life.
so i was thinking (in the cookbook thread), do you know how to make pickled peaches? my Mom used to. they were so damn good!! a Southern thing for sure.
i will probably never get peaches that good again ever.
the ones we get up here are always mealy. never the same as those right off the trees.
RE: you want to be Southern? - Cracker - 01-07-2012
I don't know how to make pickled peaches. I have never heard of them. Please share if you know how.
I only got one case of peaches this year (I have to get them at the GA/TN border at a little stand). I bought CA peaches a few times and ended up throwing them out. I hate mealy peaches, too.
Remind me about the peaches next peach season and I'll hook you up.
A friend of mine's family owns a vidalia onion farm. Remind me about those, too.

we'll have to form an exchange! what do you want, some lobsters?
i'll check on pickled peaches. they had booze in them. heh heh
Brandied peaches, which were popular as far back as the 18th century, are now a relic of old cookbooks. It’s time to rectify this historical misjudgment: brandied peaches not only taste better; they’re also remarkably handy. For a simple dessert, spoon them into small bowls and splash them with cream. You can also blend them into ice cream, add them to a drink or slip a few into a sauce for pork.

we'd have to feed him. hahahaha
i have to look for pickled peaches with no booze, but Mom made these too:
12 peaches, dipped in hot water and peeled
1 cup brandy
6 cups sugar
6 cups water
10 whole cloves
10 whole allspice berries
6 4-inch cinnamon sticks
Put the sugar and water in a large kettle and bring to a boil. Add the cloves, allspice, and cinnamon. Simmer for 5 minutes. Carefully add the peaches. Simmer for 5 minutes, until tender.
Remove the peaches to a large sterile jar with a snap lid. Pour in the cooking syrup and top with brandy.
When cool, snap shut and store in the refrigerator.
Let it mature for a few days before serving.

How come they are missing the screw on caps?
RE: you want to be Southern? - IMaDick - 01-08-2012
The rings are only required until the jars seal.
RE: you want to be Southern? - IMaDick - 01-08-2012
By the way peaches are the easiest fruit to can there is, no pressure cooking required just a nice hot bath and hot syrup.

But why take them off and risk leakage, why not wait until they are opened? The only thing holding them down is melted wax.

wrong shit bird, the lids are rubber sealed, they don't need to be held down by anything but the vaccum created when the jars cool.

The rings have rubber and wax twinkie. Why take off the screw top lids? Just because? It serves no purpose to take them off. If the jar gets bumped they could unseal.

I will believe my experiance if you don't mind, if the lids were wax it would melt off when you boil them before sealing.
I only use wax on jelly.
If the jar unseals from a bump you didn't have them hot enough when you sealed them.
You can leave the rings if you are only doing a dozen jars, if you are doing hundreds of jars like we did every year you have to remove the rings and use them on the next batch.

I would not want to take the chance, shipping them would suck. I reuse the screw on part of the lid but would not want them off until they are used.

It's just like everything else in life, some people know and some people think they know and then there is you.

When you know something you know it,that's not a hard concept to grasp.
When someone asks a question about something, that's a pretty good indication they don't know anything about something, when someone who knows about something answers the question from someone who doesn't know about something , which is obvious because they asked a question and that person who doesn't know about something then thinks they know more than the one who answered the question, they are a shitbird of the highest order.
There is only one rung on the ladder above a shitbird of the highest order and that is a meddling shitbird of the highest order, because that meddler doesn't know shit about something either, they just want two cents worth of time from the one who does know shit about something.

How are your nephews getting into school? Here in NC we don't allow them to attend without proof of vaccinations.
